 It is expected that there will be at least 460 delegates. and while some of the members of the committee have made d good showing many have given il very little attention, and it k these that the committee is anxious to have more actively in the work. Less than 200 delegates had been registered up to last night. and much of the re- maining work must be done today. as the caterer who is to serve the ban quet must know for how many he is to provide. Any man interested fin the work may become Il delegate.
 The preliminary wCrH of the conVen- tiJn iis been nearly completed, and its thUroughness compares 'favorably with similar undertakings.
 The distinguished missionaries will reach Phoenix from Fl Pasu on Fri day ir ample time for the supper and first meeting, which will be at 6:30 Friday evening in O'Neills hall. IL is difficult tO say yet how large a num- Der will be present from other cities. but accommodations will be provided Ill who register. The committee is especially anxious that Mesa and Tempe be well represented Special railroad rates will prevail, and it is anticipated that the Sunday meetings at least will attract many from these towns.

NAT REISS PURSUED
 BY OSS|F|ED MAN
Worden. the Ossified Man. Says Show Man Owes Him $2l0 and He's
 Going to Get It.

Pursued bv an ossified man is the novel but unpleasant predicament in hioh Nat Eciss. carnival manag ger. finds himself Rciss is now supposed to be in Portland while Frank Wordcn. lh" -osSifiod man that Eciss brouGh. to Phoenix and exhibited. has got only as far as Yuma. but he is on the way.
 He has a bill against Reiss for s2i0 for unpaid salary and as soon as he catches up with his former manager. il ne ever does he will attach his show properties.
 That is what the ossified man said when he went to Tempe after the car nival company became dissipated and spread to the four winds. Worden went to Tempe and gave little ex- hibition there of his own under the management of Charles Detzler. It lasted but five days and he could hardly get money enough together to leave town and get on the trail of his former manager again. While in Tempe Worden consulted lawyer who advised him that ii he was going to serve an attachment he had better find Mir. Reiss first.
 The ossified man then went to Yuma. but before going he said to a reporter as he sat in his little chair ard smoked q cigar that the reporter kindly placed between his lips for him: I've got a bone tn pick with Nat Reiss. Here ] am with no cigars. no soup, no nurse, no nothing. while Nat is hopping around the country chas- ing the aviation microbe Nat was all right till he got mixed up with the aViators. l used to starve myself for that man.

You have had six spoonfuls of that rich consomme. lt'll give you indigestion and cirrhosis of the liver. Your ears are fatter than they used to be. Do you have to have a New England Thanksgiving dinner every day?' He said all that to me and then he told the nurse not to put so much soup In the water.

GUARD THE WATER SUPPLY
Has Limited Amount He Should
Make Most of 1t.

A farmer In the semi-arid country
who has a limited water supply should
devise all sorts Of ways of conserving
the quantity SO as to make the most
OF it. Few have private reservoirs of
sufficient capacity and must adopt
some other method. Frequently the
early irrigating is done before it is
needed. because it must be accom-
plished while the water is available.
Twice as much water Is used as a crop
requires because the farmer en-
deavors to conserve the water in the
soil. Winter irrigation is always sue
cessful and should be more generally
employed. An instance is cited when
water was left In the ditch during the
winter. and naturally enough the ice
clogged the ditch so that it overflowed.
The ditch was below the road and the
water flowed out onto the field, no one
paying any attention to it. How long
the water ran there it is not known,
but 1T froZe as it spread over the land
and great field of ice was formed for
a fourth of a mile. Finally the ditch
choked al the head of its own accord.
The next spring the flooded land was
seeded, and when the grain was head,
ing out the location of the ice field
was plainly visible for the grain was
six inches taller wherever the over
flow touched This was evidence that
there is fertility in water and also
that winter irrigation is good thing
II the farmer only had the water.

IRRIGATION IN SOUTH AFRICA
Area of Great karoo, in Cape Colony,
Subject of Thorough investiga-
ton for Water.

All over the civilized world atten.
ton is being concentrated upon the
best methods OF irrigation. The pro-
ductivity of the planet and it's conse-
quent ability to support life are thus
gradually increased in way that
would hardly have been deemed pos
sible generation ago. There are
great areas, hitherto regarded as little
better than deserts, which scientific
study has proved to possess nearly all
the elements of productivity except
water and in most cases the water
can be provided. One of these areas
which has only just been the subject
of thorough investigation is the Great
Karoo, in Cape Colony. Although a,
dry region, it possesses very rich
soil and dams are being built for the
storage of rain water, special meth
DDS of cultivation are used to dimin,
ish the loss of water by evaporation
aid the influence of forests is being
studied with regard to their effects on
the water supply
