WALKER RIVER
CASE IN COURT
California and Nevada Suit In
volving Use of Water Flowing
in Both States Argued.

WASHINGTON, Jan. ia con-
troversy between citizens of the states
of California and Nevada, involving
the right to use for irrigation and
other purposes the waters of the
Walker river, which flow in both
states, and attacking the jurisdiction
of the United States circuit court In
Nevada to interfere in the title rights
to lands in California, was argued In
the supreme court of the United
States today.
The case was originally entitled:
MILLER & Lux vs. Thomas P. Hickey
The plaintiffs own about $4,000 acres
of land in Nevada, lying along the
Walker river, and the defendant
Hickey and associates hold title to
about 10000 acres located in Cali
forria along the head waters of the
same river and above the Miller and
Lux property.
In Courts Seven Years.
Miller and Lux begun the original
action in the United States circuit
court in Nevada in 1902, to restrain
the Hickey interest from using the
waters of the Walker river in Cali
fornia, which they alleged deprived
them of their supply in Nevada
Hickey pleaded lack of jurisdiction on
the part of the court, but Judge Haw-
ley of the United States circuit court
of Nevada held that he had a right to
regulate the titles to land in Cali
fornia. The defendants then brought
suit in the superior court Of Mono
county, California, against Miller and
Lux to quiet title to the California
land.
Judge Hawley, upon application OF
Miller and Lux, enjoined this action
fon the ground of an invasion of the
jurisdiction of the federal court. The
circuit court of appeals at San Fran
cisco sustained the injunction and the
case reached the United States SUI
preme court on appeal of the Nevada
parties from that affirmance.
One Precedent.
The case is similar to that wherein
the waters of the Arkansas river were
in dispute between the citizens OF
Kansas and Colorado some years ago
and which was decided finally in ia
vor of Colorado. The decision n thai
case, however, was founded upon the
presumption that the people of Colo.
RADIO would be more seriously dam
aged by a decision against them thar
would the people of Kansas.
In the present case, the court is ex.
pected to decide the ownership of the
waters of a river running through two
or more states and also the question
| whether the courts Of one state have
right to render decisions affecting
the titles to land lying within another
state.
| Charles c. Boynton attorney fol
the Hickey interests denied this right
in his argument today. He declared
that the old question of state rights
was again involved in this case. II
the precedent were established in thi:
case, he asserted, the courts Of
Louisiana or of any other state lying
along the lower parts of the Mississ-
| ippi river might assume to regulate
the titles of land lying as far away
the banks of the Missouri river in
Montana. Even the courts of Canada
he said, might assert their right to
take cognizance of the conditions In

borders of two countries

when his little hoard Of money was
gone he sank into the deepest
depths of distress.
Last fall, with the cold weather
coming on, he was compelled to go
for days without eating and with
no place to lay his head. Day after
day this sick, friendless foreigner
sat hunkry about the saloons, the
only loafing place he could find,
and when these had closed at night
he dragged his disease stricken
limbs YEARLY about the streets as
long as he could travel, and then
crawled into some dark alleyway
or lay down in the shelter of some
friendly building to pass the long
lonesome hours until the saloons
again opened in the morning.

AT last, when 1t seemed as

persons and they have since seen
that he at least had a place to

He appealed to the county
authorities and was sent to the
poor farm, but the treatment there
was such that in his sickened con-
dition he could not stay and live,
so he left and same back to the
charity of the few.
Now the doctors tell him that

care and exercise that allows many
eggs to be infertile will produce q
heavy percentage of weak germs. The
inexperienced operator is very likely
to think the whole blame for a failure
of every fertile egg to produce a good
chick is to be charged to the incu-
hator but this is not always the cause
of the trouble
However, let us discuss the low per-
centage of the hatch with good eggs
and the death rate of chicks from
such eggs. One man related an ex-
perience he had in selling a neighbor
part of two different matches OF
lost only two out of fifty while he lost
a great many of both lots of those he
kept. BY allowing him to tell the de-
tails of the whole transaction we found
that when a fairly good lot of chicks
had Matched he always opens his ma
chine and takes out a bunch and then
allows the hatch to go on till the nurs-
cry Is pretty well filled, and then takes
out some more.
In both these sales to his neighbor
we found that he gave him the first
chicks that hatched. These had used
all the oxygen in the machine and
were thoroughly strong and vigorous.
The chicks that he kept were Matched
under poorer conditions and many
died
We claim that the first lot of chicks
hatched consumed the oxygen in the
incubator, and the later ones, on
breaking the shell could not get
enough to purify the blood through the
lungs and were thus robbed of the
strength necessary to work out of the
she'll Most hatchers will agree with
US that the chicks that die in the shell
after piping. are the last ones to
break the shell. and it is not the truth
that they are late in piping because
they are weak. for the later Matched
chicks under the hen are usually as
strong as any, as a rule. but we claim
that the most of the dead after pip

its, etc, but are strong on the wing,
flying much more freely and easily
than our American prairie chickens
and living in trees as much as on the
ground. They are smaller than the
games, carry their tails lower and
vary in color in different parts of
their habitat. Those in India are much
lighter than those farther east. In
comparatively barren parts of the
Himalaya country both sexes of Gal
lus Bankiva carry much of the dirty
yellow color in the back and hackle,
while far to the east, e. g., in the Phil
inpine islands, the color of the hens is
rich and dark. of the cocks deep bril-
liant red in hackle. back, saddle and
wings, and usually black in the other
parts, but some brown breasts occ ur.
We have inquired carefully into this
matter of brown breasts, for all au-
thorities so far as we are aware de-
scribe G. Bankiva cocks as having
black breasts, though varying in color
otherwise. The brown breast is char
acteristic of allus Stenleyii. This va
rety crosses freely with domestic
fowls, but the halfbreeds are sterile
and it is probable that the same would
be true of a cross between Stenleyii
and Bankiva. G. Stenleyii is not found
in the Philippines, in fact, compared
with G. Bankiva, 1t is a rare variety.
It's home is in the Island of Ceylon
and it does not inhabit the continent
of Asia.
In the domestic fowls of the Philip
pines the presence of the blood of the
"jungle cock" &c. Bankiva) is every
where apparent. The natives say that
crossing on the jungle cock improves
their games as fighters and all grades
and percentages of mixed blood
abound So far from being sterile, the
greatest vigor and fertility prevail

the Filipino. may be seen tied by a
leg with a few feet of string, bravely

1t is safe to say that men have
raised chickens for more than 5000
years-perhaps for nearly that many
generations of fowls-a much greater
number of generations than that
through which civilized man has
passed 1t is not surprising, there
fore. that breeds differ remarkably in
type. Besides it is by no means GER
tain that our domestic fowls came en-
t.rely from one source. Darwin was
of the opinion that Gallus Bankiva is
the ancestor of all domestic chick
ems, while many later writer's think
this statement too sweeping. Many
varieties of gallinaceous fowls found
in Asia and the islands to the east
and southeast of it have pecul.arities
seen in our domestic breeds that are
not found in G. Bankiva, blft, unlike
G. Bankiva, If crossed with domestic
fowls the halfbreeds do not breed
again.
Hence G. Banxiva is entitled to more
than passing notice. He is found over
the greater portion of Southern Asa
and the islands adjoining, at all al
titudes below 1000 feet. These wild
fowls closely resemble the black
breasted red game in color, voice, hab-

master often provides no roof over his
head.
We have now had a glimpse of the
primitive chicken. Our stock may be
descended from one or several of the
wild types, or it may have originated,
father back in the line of evolution,
from the same parents as the wild gal
linaceous birds. Not enough history is
at hand to enable us to be sure. Our
next look shall be taken at present
day fowls, first as a whole, then as
separate breeds.

ABOUT HATcHINc CHICKS
BY #. b. CLEWETTE,
Manager George II. Lee Company

A majority of our larger hatchers of
chicks are of one opinion in regard to
the results of the seasons work, and
that Is that the average has run 10
per cent and more below the average
but the reason for this is hard to un
derstand The fatalities among young
chicks is another phase of the same
question, for as rule if the average
fertility of lot of eggs Is low there
will of necessity be more weak germs
unable to reach maturity than in a
lot that are strongly fertile
The same lack of proper feeding,
