"Chickens a Nuisance"

Chickens a nuisance" declares the
Charleston News and Courier. What,
fried?-Baltimore Sun.
Chickens a nuisance? Yes, when
all they leave of your garden is a
Renaissance; yes, when the young
cock, full of the joys of life, rouses
you in the early dawn; yes, when
some ~low-browed, vulgar fowl whips
the very life out of your blooded pet;
yes, when the pip or other ailment
worries the amateur breeder. But
when fried? Never!

ADVENTURE OF W. HOLLIS, DIPLOMAT.

a policeman in each hand and bumpeI their heads together The third po- liceman struck w. Hollis on what he designates as his "kanoodle' and made a dent in his club. W. Hollis turned and looked pityingly upon the third copper. Cant you hit harder than that?' inquired W. Hollis solicitously.
 The policemen told w. Hollis he was under arrest for resisting an of ficer, and he protested that he had not resisted at all. He pointed out that if he had been really averse to arrest he would have piled them in a heap and gone away. 'Im harm less as a mousse" protested w. Hol- lis. Except when I get vexed," he added.
 Mir. Hollis told of the subsequent proceedings in this way: q didn't want to resist the law, so I went along and just used diplomacy. The police station is in basement. When we got to the top of the steps, It oc- cured to me that the policemen hadn't used diplomacy with me and it sort of annoyed me. So I punched em up and threw 'em all down the steps into jail ahead of me Those policemen swore something scanda- lous. The next day the judge said he'd fine me five dollars for resisting arrest. I told him I'd pay five dollars for Jumping the policemens heads and be glad to do it, but not for re- sisting arrest, because I didn't resist. After I threw 'em all down into jail, I went right down too and told 'em how vulgar it was to swear the way they was doing. I offered the judge five dollars more to keep it out of the papers, but he said that would be all right and the papers wouldn't get a word of it. They ought to get police men in Riverside who use diplomacy or else fellers that can hit harder with a club"

COLORADO MELON GROWERS
Marketing Through Association Not Entirely Satisfactory to Rocky
 Ford Farmers.

The cantaloupe growers of Rocky Ford are organized and handle their crop through an association, but they appear to have troubles nevertheless. A Denver telegram to the Produce News says:
 There is not all peace and harmony in the Growers Assn. that handles the Rocky Ford cantaloupe and mel on output, and this year may see serious break in the ranks of members. For a couple of years past there have been serious murmurings against the pro rata sharing of receipts and this feeling has growing generally, and will be the cause of a break. Some of the growers who are raising eX- ducts are carefully nurtured and brought to a state of almost perfec- tion say that they should have the benefit over the grower of a scrawny melon.
 Those who object say that they put in time and labor preparing their soil to bring forth the best in the ground, while their neighbor with the small melon is content to raise low CT grades year after year. As an in- dication that a break. in the ranks of association is coming, produce men point to the fact that several members have been quietly visiting places of distribution, with a view to placing their own crops independent of asso- citations.

COMMISSION SHELL GAME
coacheia Melon Grower Complains of
 Methods of Middlemen

The commission man is upto his old shell game again-this time with B. F. Bird, who reports the transac- tion as follows:
 The Fresno Fruit and Produce con- pany, of Los Angeles, made contract with me to buy all my watermelons at $10.5O per ton, F, O. B. Coachella, where they were to be inspected by the representative of the Fresno Fruit and Produce company, T.. c. Holman.
 'I shipped eighteen carloads and was paid for fifteen, the commission firm holding out the price of the last three carloads as they claim these ar rived in bad condition.
 "Of course I don't know anything about whether they were in good or bad condition and its none of my funeral as they were bought and ac- cepted by the Fresno Fruit and Pro- duce company and shipped by me in good faith, and what's more I have started suit against them. and you bet i'll get my money all right"

all money realized from the sale of the stock would be spent at once in improvements of the canal system throughout the valley. He promised that the wooden structures at Sharp's Heading and the Ten Foot Drop should be replaced with concrete, and other improvements made as fast as the revenues should be sufficient to meet the cost of construction.
 Since it is we'll understood that to insure the safety of the system these structures will have to be replaced at an early date and that there are no funds available for this work no ob- struction should be offered to any req reasonable endeavcr which promises to supply funds for these necessary improvements.
 There is nothing in the experience of the stockholders of Water Co. No. 1 to justify the theory that it is cheap CT per acre to operate a large body of land under one system rather than through the agency of several smaller corporations.
 Imperial Water Company No. 1 was organized to cover that portion of the valley which offered the least obstruc- tion to successful irrigation and it is at once the largest and most expen- sive per acre to maintain of all the systems in the valley. If No. 1 were divided into several smaller compan- ies, thus centering the interest of each farmer more directly upon the canals in his own vicinity, the maintenance of the canal system would unques- tionably prove more economical and any successful move in this direction will prove beneficial in the end

Imperial Valley produces the biggest crops. biggest horses, heaviest cattle and is inhabited by the healthiest and huskiest race of men on earth. If anyone harbors the suspicion of a doubt as the accuracy of that asser- ton let him read this short tale of the experience of an El Centro in- valid abroad.
 w. Hollis is El Centro's official invalid It is a matter of record that W. Hollis has been under the care of physician continuously ever since the no-license ordinance of El Centro was enacted. w. Hollis sadly denied in court that he suffered from chronic rampageous good health and explained that he was obliged to apply regular ly to the doctor for prescriptions to prevent him from falling into a ue- cline.
 It is true that MT. Hollis does not look sickly or peaked. He is five feet six high and six feet five wide or thereabouts and his upper arm does not measure much mure than two feet in circumference. Hollis used to work for the Holton Power Company. He jumped the job because he didn't like to turn the generator all night when the power canal was dried up by injunctions; he said it made blis- ters on his hands.
 w Hollis was in River side recently. Late one night he sat upon a curb stone meditating on things generally and lamenting the infirmity of his constitution which makes him subject to bad colds. Two policemens new men on the force and not acquainted with w. Hollis, accosted nim and made inquiries which he deemed irrelevant and impertinent There was a third policeman adjacent, but w. Hollis did not see him. Hollis advised the po- licemen to depart and leave him in peace, but they rejected good ad- vice, seized Hollis and pulled him to his feet.
 In jocund spirit, w. Hollis took

where it is badly needed. there will be a reduction of expense to No. 1 corresponding to the reduction of the size of the territory maintained. It is self evident that the cost will be less for distributing water over 130, 900 acres than over 160,000 acres of land The cost of maintainance to No. l will be further reduced by the watering and cultivation of the land now vacant in certain localities.
 For instance, lands a few miles southeast of El Centric are loose and sandy and somewhat rough as we'll. Owing to lack of water stock, not more than ten per cent of these lands are in cultivation and every high wind fills the canals of No. 1 with sand. To now keep these canals open costs ten times the amount necessary to keep canals in repair through culti- vated lands equally soft. This land is as fertile as the best in the valley
 
 soon after water is available With an abundance of water in the Cobra do river and an adequate canal in operation, no more time should be wasted in a futile discussion of meth ods of delivery
 So long as water is wasting in the Colorado river, every landowner in the valley is entitled to an opportun- ity to acquire sufficient ownership in the canal system to insure ample de- livery of water.
 At the meeting of farmers last week at Mesquite Lake, MT. Cory stated that all No. 1 stock acquired by the California Development Go. would oe treated as new stock and delivery made, without expense to No. l, to all lands upon which the stock would be placed. He stated further that
