SAN FRANCISCO, May 2O.-About
the end of the month the little gaso-
line sloop Lizzie f. Sorenson will
leave here for her station in South
western Alaska, out of which she will
cruise for whales of any species to be
used for fertilizer. The vessel ar
rived here several weeks ago from the
north to be put in shape for her pecu-
liar kind of work. In the bow of the
craft is mounted a gun which throws
a harpoon weighing over 100 pounds
After being harpooned the mammal
is drawn in by a gigantic winch, and
when dead, is turned over to a ten
der to be towed into the station for
reduction. The pursuit of the whale
for fertilizer is practically in its in
fancy and bids fair to be a profitable
industry Along the lower coast of
Alaska the hump-back and fin-bank
wh"'9s are extremely plentiful and
the bowhead often finds its way into
the lower ATTITUDES.

Mark Twain, the humorist, was the

IRRIGATION OUTLOOK.

For years there have been a num-
Der Of small irrigated farms on this
section lying close 10 the streams
where primitive systems of irrigation
have been followed Their limitations
Of water and their isolation have
kept them from being desirable
homes and no real development of the
country was possible, until in a large
way. the government segregated such
lands as could be watered and under
the Carey act, opened them up for
settlement The crops grown on the
little. vest-pocket ranches. are aim ost
miraculous in their productivity.
Wheat often runs as high as sixty
bushels and oats 1875 bushels per acre.
Alfalfa is a sure winner under irri-
cation in Montana and immense
yields Of barley, rye. potatoes and
other crops are grown wherever the
magic touch of the water is applied.
Il is hard for farmers in the east to
comprehend these big yields. They
do not appreciate that these inter-
mountain soils are often a hundred
feet deep, waiting for centuries, un-
touched in their virginity, for mod
edn irrigation methods to unlock the
treasure house Of their wealth. If
the average New Englander or corn
belt farmer were to visit some Of
these places, he would never go back
TO the old inhospitable conditions. II
they would apply here the same care
ful and painstaking methods, they
would become little kings of the soil
Instead of working like a drudge six
months out Of the year in order to
struggle through the other six
months, they would see the actual ex-
emplification of the saying: Tickle
the soil with pillow and it will laugh
harvest" Instead Of conserving the
soil and spending profits on fertiliz-
ers they would find these irrigated
soils Of the inter-mountain region in
exhaustible.
Another peculiar fact, which east
erners unacquainted with western life
can not understand, is that western
agricultural products need not be
shipped to the great commercial CEN

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

President Taft's first message to
the second session Of the sixty-siXth
congress is a very calm, dignified
missive. It is a very able message
yet to those who like the rhetoric OF
his fiery and strenuous predecessor
the message seems q trifle dull. The
most interesting subjects, those re-
Earding conservation. antitrust laws
ard the powers of the interstate COM
merce commission. were passed al
most completely, but with the expla-
nation that special messages bearing
upon the subjects will be submitted.
Of the recommendations made by
the president practically all were an
tlcipated for the reason that he had
urged them in his speeches. He asks
for postal savings banks. for snip
subsidy bill. for the expedition Of le-
gal procedure. for statehood for New
Mexico and Arizona. though he seems
very solicitious regarding constitu-
lions for those new states; advises
against home rule for Alaska and
gives some excellent reasons for his
position He wants the country to
celebrate the semi-centenial Of ne
gro freedom in 1913 and says that the
increase in the cost Of living is not due
to the protective tariff.
In every way the message is typical
of President Taft He is lawyer
not a soldier. He IS noted for his
genial manner and his poise rather
than for vigor of speech and action.
He has for some time been regarded
-s a conservative rather than pro-
eressive like Roosevelt His message
tends strength TO the conviction that
ne wants to get along with congress
and with people in general He is
booking for no fight. He even treat
ed Of the sugar frauds with zott
words and few. He did not call The
sugar trust lhIt'eS 'Ao-|-e'-N'iH -
great wealth" He devoted more
srace to the District q Columbia j.il
than to the subject Of antitrust laTs.
But then congress has 5ust begun
its work Perhaps the president wants
tn keep the Big stick out of sight
vntiI he sees what course affairs will
take. II is just possible that he con-
templates some club swinging dur
ing the winter but does not see fit TO
advertise the fact.

selves to the utmost to act upon It.
With ample electric power for manu-
featuring and development purposes,
and electric railroads terminating
there, pendleton would grow rapidly.
values OF real estate property would
increase greatly, business would
double in volume and thus the peo-
pie who invested their money to aid
these enterprises would get it back.

And what is said here about Pen
dleton could be said. with perhaps
some notifications, of score Of
Oregon cities. If they would grow
rapidly ana become far more i'm
portant, they must help build cleo
tric railroads into the surrounding
producing country. and must get
power for industrial purposes, as
most of them can. 1t may seem in
some cases that the country is not
sufficiently populous yet to do these
things. but the doing of them will
induce a larger rural population and
far greater production"

roads. 1t is a known fact that the
Umatila project is going to be closely

Why not build a road to it now and
thereby hasten the settlement and de-

Furthermore it is true that com
nunities may well afford to assist in
building electric roads and in secur-
ing additional power. The communi-
ties that do give such assistance are
usually the communities that get these
things first.

KINDERGARTEN'S TRUE MEANING.
Some one has rightly said that in
kindergarten the child is taught to
love the right things as we'll as to
learn the right things. and to teaca
this it is important to study the child,
both physically and mentally, his wants
and his needs.
1t is through the senses that we
| learn to read the mind. thus we have
our games OF perception. acuteness OF
! hearing, accuracy of judgment, mem
| DRY, Imagination, ETC. So closely con-
| nected 10 the mind and Jody that9we
| ind 1t q simple task to have the child
do the things he is required to feek
Froebel. our originator of kinder
garten, took the activities OF the child
as a basis, feeling that God would not
have given this characteristic to the
great extent that He did If not for the
best Thus he established method of
teaching the child through the mask
Of play. His object was TO educate
these activities and guide them in the
right channels, making the mind the
perfect master of the body.
In beginning our work we have the
child reproduce the familiar objects at
home, in construction work or in build
ing, and when we have gained their
confidence we bring to them new Ideas
The child's play with the blocks Is not
merely play but an experience in which
his Judgment is bettered even through
the simple process of using one block
instead of another, his memory trained
and strengthened by building the things
he has once seen and his imagination
given full scope. If Just In pretending
he Is a little carpenter. So in each
days work the child is taught some
thing of the outside world and is
broadened in learning these laws Of
life.
Froebel was not satisfied with the
growth of mind and body alone, but
realized the heart of tLe child, too,
must be fed. and to obtain the right
