TOO MUCH WATERING.

1t has long been recognized fact
i'll Utah, that irrigators have habitually
used too much water. And too much
water is harmful to the crops. IL also

ing. In good many cases, farms that
were valuable and productive In former
years have been reduced TO mere
swamps by reason of the overflow from
too much irrigation. Accordingly, both
for the preservation Of lands now till
able, for the draining and reclaiming
of some that have been flooded and put
out of use, and because of the fact
that better crops can be raised with
less water, the idea is centering in the
minds of the irrigators of Utah that
they must be more careful and sparse
III the use of water In tilling their crops.
The same story comes from the an
cient land of Egypt, which under Brit
ish auspices, has been for the past few
years supplied with more water than
the history of mankind shows to have
been available before for use in Egypt.
A recent Consular report notes the de-
livery of lecture before the Cairo
Scientific Society, on Egyptian cotton
growing, showing the rulnous effect OF
the application Of too much water to
tho cotton lands. The hypothesis upon
which the lecture was founded is that
EGYPT is water.loggcd. This over
watering caused decrease In the cot"
ton production last season to 50,000,000
pounds from the official estimate of 700,-
100000 pounds, loss of 150,000,000
pounds of cotton, which was directly
traceable to the overwhelming of the
cotton lands. 1t is further stated that
the best land of seven years ago is now
the worst, from the same cause. The soil

luton of the problem of hand
ling the Nile, so as TO pro-
vide abundant water, has done,
apparently for the time being, as much
harm as good. Eventually, of course,
they will learn to handle the water in
such way as to derive the utmost ben
eft from it. But there. rs here, it ap.
pears TO have been the idea Of the water
users that the more water they could
get the better they would be off. The
fallacy of this notion has been COM
pletely demonstrated in Utah, and is
now being demonstrated also in Egypt.
1t is a costly lesson, but a valuable one,
that irrigators everywhere should take
to heart.

ITS BRAzEN LYING.

On Saturday evening the peseret
News had an editorial article in which
the following statement occurred;
Polygamy is an Issue OF the past II

mediate interest than the question OF
slave holding. for instance. No plural
marriages are entered Into, and no such
sanction Of the church. since the mani
festo.
The church organ would very much
like to have citizens Of this country
believe that this statement is true, But
il is not true Polygamy is an issue
Of the present. inasmuch as new polyg-
amous marriages have been occurring
with vicious frequency. The question
has not been settled, for that sclf-samc
reason. 1t is of immediate interest, be
cause these new pclygamous marriages
are bringing forth race of illegimi-
mates to mingle with and intermarry
with the children of Legitimate
homogeneous unions. These unlawful
marriages are with the sanction of the
church, at least after the fact, be
cause the church takes no action against
the offenders, when it is the only com
petent body possessing the necessary
ability to punish them The first presi.

and therefore knows that the question

were still slave owners all over the coun.

be settled until polygamy ceases en-
ltircly. That these new polygamous mar
