made, and the "Traylor" idea Of
utilizing the great body Of water for
irri alton

mduoS huu tu0 AL0yiOh luOn "
utilizing the great body Of water for
irri alton
The "sump", or intake, which 10
to furnish the volume Of water for
the canal nearly ninety miles long. is
of itself a great undertaking. This. |
really, is where the work is TO be
done. The snmp will be 100 feet
wide, and will extend from the head
Of the canal westward about i've
miles The bottom Of the sump is to
be on level grade, and a. tho rise
II the land westward 10 6 fest per
mile, at the west end the
sump will be quite deep. The stump
10 going westward will cross tn
present bed of the river a few miles
above the head Of the canal and the
course Of the river will be changed
to accommodate the arrangement.
ibis intake, 100 feet wide, five miles
long, sixteen feet deep ut the east
end and about 40 feet deeper at the
west end will drain an immense body
uf this sand and gravel deposit, and
the sump being the point in the sand
and water deposit where there 10 no
resistance the water will naturally
flow into it and ss naturally Gnd it's
way out ut the east end, into the
canal Au addition 10 this source Of
water supply, to be carried out ulti-
mately, is the building of another
sump on the south ride Of the river
(ihs present one Is north Of the Ar
k .nsAs) the additional sump to be
two miles long From the second
-ump the water is TO be carried to
the sump north Of the river.
Il is estimated that it will take
three years bard work to complete
the work at the heat Of the canal but
the canal is to be running while this
work is going on, and supplying
water to good many Thousand acres.
Mr. Traylor aid John and George
Gilbert, who are in charge OF the
work are confident OF having water
in the ditch in short time, and an
nouuce that they will soon be ready
to dispose Of water rights.
Only small section Of the sump
is completed up to this time, just
enough to serve as demonstration,
but the supply seems nearly inex-
baustible A large flow ot water is
running from the big dredge pump
at the east end, and another from a
smaller pump at the west. With the
pumps running the water lowers in
the sump few inchee, then stays at
that point.
With the work at the sump far
enough advanced TO furnish an ade-
quats supply Of water the projectors
expect to see a rapid change in the
country along the course Of the
canal. That canal nearly ninety
miles long and entirely crossing Ford
county, q portion Of Gray county and
entering Edwards county at the end
Of the line, passes through valuable
agricultural territory, and the change
made in it will be omething wonder
full, if the canal company's plans are
carried out.

Now who would ever think OF

tree? But saw one riding about

ting queer little seeds in the CEN

A few weeks later when the lit
tie green apples appeared on the
tree, saw her come flying back
again. 1t was evening this time,
bit the moon shed light enough
SO I could see what she did.
She drew up her broomstick
steed with a flourish, and blew q
blast on a trumpet flower. The
next minute hundreds of thin lit

came crawling out of the ends of
the green apples.

SMART OUTING HAT

For many summers the inexpen-
sive straw sailor has been the
popular outing hat for those who
have but little money to spend,
and the natty, sfmply-trimmed
Panama for those who have the
price.
This season flower and fruit
trimming has been slowly but
surely creeping into favor, in the
adornment of the outing hat.
The sketch shows a dome-shaped
creation of soft rough cream-col-
ored straw, trimmed with a bunch
of small roses and foliage on
either side of the front.
These hats are much more be-
coming to the majority than the
more severe sailor and Panama.
and milady looks bewitching be-
hind the long crepe de chine veil
of becoming shade. But the
veil is only matter of taste, or
convenience, for the hat may be
worn with or without it.

They are trying out new style
of street car in our model city"
The transverse seats have been re-
placed by two very narrow seats
running part of the longitudinal
distance of the car. The space be-
tween the seats has been much In
creased. A row of upright stan
chfons runs down the middle OF
the aisle, from which dangle Sc
straps. There are also straps on
the sides. Thus there is standing
room for 60 to 100 people, and
seats for about 80. I understand
the company is much pleased with
this type of car. 1t will squeeze
lin more fares than any style pre-
viously experimental with. The
next step, ! understand, will be to
equip the conductor with a pike,
like that used by cattle-train con-
ductors, so at every stop they can
go along beside the cars and poke
up the animals who are down"
and are being trampled by the

WASHINGTON, D. c., August
Dear Dad: In volume from
the census office which has just
come to hand / note some inter
esting figures on the growth OF
the meat packing Industries al
Chicago. / note that between
1900 and 1905 the number OF
Strengthening establishments de-
creased from 3S to 80. Also see
that the average number of wage
earners decreased from 25,345 tic
l22,613. But, observe this strange
phenomenon, the value of the
products increased from $685.
l527,949 to $3.50, 5S1,486. Which
spells consolidation, the economies
of a trust, fewer jobs for the wage
Garner, more work. by those who
do the work, more profit by those
who hold the stock. And yet Sem
ator Hepburn says: These trusts
are ghosts"
Yes, Senator Hepburn thinks
the press gallery is too frivolous.
think the senator is mistaken
There are times when the only
thing to do is to laugh. Tears
would be the only alternative. And
one of the times is when Senator
Hepburn gets up and begs for an
increased duty on pig lead, and a
decreased duty on dead pig. Or
was it vice versa7
At all times with Hepburn it is
a case of unconscious humor.
The thing that really worried
Hepburn, as / am informed, was
the statement of q New York
newspaper man that the senior
senator from Idaho was the only
man In the senate who could start
HIS mouth going and go off and
leave 1t. ] don't blame the sena-
tor for objecting to that kind of a
Joke. Because in the first place
the statement is not true. There
lis no man in either branch of con-
gress. SO far as ! have observed
and l have been here long time
who can go away and leave his
mouth In operation, without SUI
fering consequences. 1t is true
Hepburn tried it: but you remem-
Der what happened. He came
back and found that his mouth
had said that all this fuss about
trusts and combinations was
twaddle Cor words to that effect) ;
that there were no trusts in
Idaho: that trusts were the inven-
ton OF men like Cummins and La
Toilette, who frequented the
lChautauqua circuits: that his far
mers were too intelligent to be
scared by this annual Chautauqua
bug-a-boo; that he did not believe
in them; that they were ghosts.
etc. Well, / give you my word
when Hepburn came back to the
lsenate chamber and found his
mouth saying things like this, and
all his colleagues grinning like q
lot OF Cheshire cats, he was the
most ratified senator you ever saw.
The way he got to that mouth TO
lshut II off was something for a
base runner to copy. Therefore, !

Cold MeafS
BY Cynthia Grey.

That too much meat is eaten
during the summer all doctors
agree. Whether cold meat Is
worse than hot meat is mooted
point. But cold meat is palatable
and to the woman WHO is her own
cook It is blessing.
Chicken GaIatine.
Boil a three-pound chicken un-
til very tender, skin and bone it
and chop rather fine. Pack it in
a buttered pan in alternate layers
of dark and light. Boil the
broth down to one quart, add one
fourth teaspoon salt and paprika,
dash celery salt, one teaspoon
lemon juice and one tablespoon
|granulated gelatine which has
been dissolved. When It begins to
lset, pour over the chopped chick
en-. When firm and cool. set on
ice until ready to serve. then slice
and garnish with parsley.
Veal Jelly.
Boil three. pounds of veal with
one teaspoon chopped onion, one
Tablespoon celery seed, one tea.
spoon minced parsley, one tea.
spoon salt, one-fourth teaspoon
cloves, dash cayenne and one-hali
teaspoon kitchen bouquet. Re
move when cooked tender, choI
fine, return bone to kettle and
1 boil until liquor is reduced to one
tpint. Line mold with hard boiled
eggs cut in slices, pour in an incl
of chopped meat, fill mold, ant
when cool place on ice. Serve IL
loaf on bed of cress and slice a
table. Very pretty.

beef in two quarts of water ant
one teaspoon salt until tender

The reason for keeping to hours
is this: II you let the baby sleep
on over, two hours( 1t will be SO
hungry when 1t does awake that it
will scream, and then take its
milk too fast. and will also want
more than the regular allowance,
and SO get indigestion. Then, too,
another advantage is, IL the baby
is well fed during the day it will
be nourished enough to sleep
through the night. If you let it
sleep long. unbroken lengths dur
ing the day, it will get the habit
of sleeping in the day and waking
at night-which is an unnecessary
and uncomfortable state of affairs.
If you find the baby splits up
milk after feeding, 1t indicates
that it has had too much, or that
it is too rich. or that 1t has been
taken too fast; so be careful to

regulate the feeding accordingly.
OF course cows milk is too rich
for young babies unless diluted

older, dilute it one-third water un-
til the child gets to be about
eight months old, when you can
give the milk without the water,
If the baby seems hungry. be-
tween the feelings, give 1t drink
of water; If it still seems hungry
it indicates that the milk Is not
strong enough for the baby, SO
use less water.
Be most careful to wash out the
baby's mouth before feeding-also
after feeding. The simplest way
to do this is to have pieces of old
cotton cloth cut small and kept
in a box on the baby's table. Put
a piece of this cloth on your fin

II was tall woman in very
tight sheath gown of black satin.
On her head she wore a tub-shaped
hat that was easily two feet in
diameter, and almost concealed her
head from view. Several huge
black plumes nodded from 1t, and
the whole contraption could hardly
have been crowded into bass drum
without mussing it.
The woman had elevated her
skirts with her left hand so that
they were full around the hips,
rather tight just below, and her

about four inches high.
As she turned into Forty-fourth
street, toward Broadway, she
flashei a look backward. Inside
the huge hat was an enormous
mass of false hair. Her face was
SO fhickly painted or enameled
