landing a series of jabs, swings and
hooks that smothered Papke, whose
guard was being easily penetrated.
Papke countered with a light left to
the wind, and Ketchel smiled. Ketchel
landed a terrific right to the jaw as
the gong rang for the end of the round

Ketchels hand and the title of cham
pion had found new resting place.

TAFT WILL NOT TALK.
Refuses to Discuss Hughes or Any
Other Political Topic.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 24.-The an
Louncement of the candidacy of Gov
ernor Hughes for the presidency may
or may not have been the cause of an
hours conference between President
Roosevelt and Secretary Taft. the ad-
linistration' candidate, at the White
House this morning The war seere-
tary was smiling as usual when he
left Mr., Roosevelts Office at the close
of the conference. and as usual he
declined to talk politics for publica-
ticn.
What do you think of the Hughes
announcement Taft was asked
This is "A mighty. fine day, ism
it?' was the reply. Then Taft said.
DO you know | don't see that
your question has any news value
whatever. Anyhow, cant talk poll
tics; III talk as long as you like
about retirements from the army"

In the assemblage at Salt Lake
City there should be dry farmers to
whom an experiment in the Steptoe
valley in the vicinity of this city
would appeal The News hopes that
the representatives from the district
will make occasion to find out If there
are such and to tell them when found
of the opportunities which are here.
Il is also to be hoped that those rep
fesenting the district may themselves
become sufficiently imbued with the
spirit of arid land reclamation to
come back and give the valley trial
themselves. The price commanded
by vegetable products of the ranch in
this district is sufficiently high to as
sure the successful home grower "a
rtune in comparatively short time
A few years will make him rich The
same is true as to hay and grain.
which dealers say cannot be shipped
in at cost in freight charges less than
original cost of the product in ne
nearest large markets. Express and
freight charges put protective tariff
o. tremendous proportions on veg
etables. Cauliflower, for instance,

able on the coast at usual rate of
wo heads for cents. Other vegeta-
bic charges are proportionate. I'm
del dry farming methods there is
reason to believe that goodly acre
age In Steptoe valley could be made
to produce all the vegetables and all
he hay and grain the camp might
ever need. If so, it is readily appa-
relt that there is a great deal in it
fer those who work out the problem
as well as for those who live in the
district.

SALTON SEA
 HAS F ALLEN
 FORTY INCHES
Party of Scientists Return To Tucson After Great Difficulty In Finding the Exact Meas urements of Water.

TUCSON, Feb. 26.-Salton sea has fallen between 40 and Az inches dur ing the past year, some difficuily pe- ing experienced in making the meas urements owing to the wave action.
 This was the information learneo today from the party of scientists in cluding Dr. D. T., ,MacDouglas, Dr. W.. A. Cannon and Godfrey Sykes, of the Desert Laboratory, who returned this morning from trip to the sea.
 They left here about two weeks ago for Mecca and at that point they boarded the sail boat which had been specially built for them a year pre- vious. This boat was equipped with could be made when the winds were stilled aud the great inland sea was circumnavigated second time by the scientists.
 Their most interesting disco-ery was that the sea is receding some what They made measurements un. der extreme difficulty, but they found that the water line was between 40 and AZ inches lower than it was a year ago when they made what was the first exploration of this sea
 Experiments being carried on near this sea by the Desert Laboratory may result in the discovery of how vegetation came on the great South west desert land after the waters had receded. It has been proven be yond question that at one time the deserts were covered with wacsi I.s. !. CT, salty that it destroyed all vegetation when it covered the land.
 The experiments made at Salton sea showed that all life had gone from submerged areas. A study Is being made as a result to determine how the emersed land portions are re occupied by vegetation after the lake has receded
 That the Salton basin was occu- pied by vegetation is proven conclu- siveIy by photographs which Dr. Mac Dougal took of Salton basin in 1903 before the sea came in. Following the encroachments of the salty water of the sea all this vegetation was ex- terminated.
 It was observed on this trip that plants from the river float into the sea and are marooned on islands where they take on new life. Most or the plant life that is found comes from floating seeds which are depos- tied on land either on an island or on the shore.
 It was discovered also, however, that in a number of places the lana vegetation follows the sea as it re- cedes.
 On the first trip about the sea, the Desert Laboratory people surveyed seven submerged areas and on these observations and records were made on the second trip. Observations were also taken of plant life and gravel shore, on sand dunes, on alkali flats and in highlands.
 The party found that tae govern ment weather bureau is making ex- periments to determine the amount of evapo-atioa on the sea and in the vicinity Stations have been estab- lished at Mecca on the seashore and at India a few miles distant. The experiments to determine the eyapo- rations are being made from the sur face. above the surface and on con tiguous land.
