CONSERVATION OF NATURAL
RESOURCES.

The United States has astounded the
world by it's spectacular rapidity of
development. We came into the sister
hood of nations an evangel of liberty
aud herald of better days to the ma
tions. But we are the Speudthrift,
the Waster. the Meier do-Well Of ma
tions. Beginning in modern times
with incomparably rich natural re-
sources. we have ravaged a continent
of its wood, coal and iron, and we smil-
inlgly face the exhaustion of our bank
account in these things like boy in
the midst Of his sowing of wild oats.
Our forests are gone. The scattered
fragments left will disappear in
twenty years. The pinch Of exhaust
ing coal fields has begun; and the best
authorities are computing the time Of
the end of our supply, trying to de-
termine whether it will be our child
rem or our grandchildren who will
have to face future without coal.
We have vast reserves of water-power,
coal, iron, and lands capable of re-
clamation and reforestation, but we
seem TO have no adequate conception
of our duties toward them, to our
selves, four country or prosterity. Our
soil is being washed away into the
rivers, and by them carried to the sea,
and our boasted fertility of soil il
thereby being lessened year by year
but the irreparable drain is ignored.
Our neglect is almost equal to our
active waste. The vast potentialities
of our waterways in bearing commerce
and in furnishing power have been
neglected. But new era seems
dawning. President Roosevelt ia
bringing these matters into the field
of practical statesmanship. The In
land WATERWAYS Commission has been
constituted by him as great agency
for pointing out these national dangers
and ooordinating the Governmental
plans for conserving our national re-
sources. In constructive statesman
ship. the work outlined rises to the
most exalted plane. 1t demands the
attention of every American. On its
success depends the future. We must
make the most of what is left of our
once great estate; we must stop waste
we must keep our natural resources
from the grasp of monopoly, or we
may sink to status Of commercial
and national inferiority and subordi-
nation.-The Reader Magazine.

The efforts being made by Whitman
College for cleaner athletics are to be
commended, and it is to be hoped that
at the conference to be held there in
February. steps will be taken that will
stop the mud-slinging that is yearly
being indulged in under the present
system. Rigid rules defining profes-
sionalism should Ee adopted and en-
forced. Whitman is rapidly coming
to the front in scholastic as we'll as
athletic lines and it is proper that she
should take the initiative for cleaner
sports.

GROWTH OF IRRIGATION.

The annual report of the director of
the reclamation service, portions of
which were printed in The Sunday
Oregonian, contains some very inter
esting figures regarding the results in
the klamath district, where the Gov
ernment has devoted more of its ener-
gies than at any other portion of this
State. According to this report, there
was irrigated in the klamath and
Merrill districts this year $500 acres
of land, with an additional II, 900
acres under ditch but not yet irrigated.
This tract of 1000 acres, is of course,
only small portion of the area that
will eventually come under the irriga-
tion project in that part of the State.
but when it is considered that the
amount already under irrigation in
that district is ample to produce a
good living for more than thousand
families, the Importance of the work
can be understood.
More than so years have passed
since Brigham Young, the original ir-
rigationist of the West, first made the
desert bloom with his primitive irriga-
ton projects. Since that time more
than $4,000, 900 acres of desert land
have been brought to high degree of
cultivation by means of irrigation,
estimates placing the amount brought
into use by the Government and pri-
vate enterprise within the past FIVE
years, at more than 100000 acres
per year. Some of the projects now
under way or recently completed will
bring under cultivation greater areas
of productive land than are found in
entire States in New England. Around
Phoenix, Arizona. 10000 acres have
been rendered fertile by the building
of the Roosevelt dam and 600, 900 acres
will be benefited by the Minidoka pro-
jeot in Idaho.
i Oregon has been so we'll favored by
nature in the way of moisture that ir-
rigation has received less attention
here than in some of the States where
nature was less kind, but the results
secured by irrigation are so remunera-
tive that there will be a rapidly in
oreasing exploitation of our arid land
resources from this time forward. The
success that has followed irrigation
enterprises along Snake River, in the
Yakima and Wenatohee districts, as
we'll as at a number of other localities
throughout the Pacific Northwest. has
given us an idea Of what the future
holds for Oregon in this line of en-.
deavor, and an enormous development
on lines similar to those followed in
the districts mentioned will take place
in the irrigation districts of this State.

Ths late MT. Barnum mad an ele.

Ths late Mr.. Barnum had an ele-
phant plowing on Connecticut field,
in view of passing railroad trains. To
a farmer who asked if the elephant
was profitable beast of labor for this
country, the Snowman replied that it
was not unless one had a circus to ad-
vertise. Contractors in a New York
town, engaged in extensive building,
have imported two work elephants to
pull dirt cars. 1t may be, however,
that the contractors have caught
Barnum's spirit, and have sent the
story to the newspapers for purposes OF
advertisement.
