kept out of the national irrigation con,

Cuba there are over 10000 deaths from
tuberculosis every year, and the death
rate from this disease is nearly three
times as high In the United States.

deaths every year out Of 100000 In
habitants. In Trinidad, the death rate
from tuberculosis in Port-au-Spain, the
only place where figures are available,
was 4.75 in 1909, nearly three times
the rate In New York city. Condi-
tinns in the other islands of the West

MESSAGE FROM TAFT
GOV. sHAFRoTH WELCOMES DEL,
EGATEs AND Ex-Gov. ADAMS
DELIVERS ADDRESS.

Pueblo.-The National Irrigation
Congress opened Monday under the
most favorable auspices, the apparent
disposition being to attend to the work
for which the congress is organized,
and TO eliminate factionalism as much
as possible.
Governor Shafroth in his speech OF
welcome said that he had been pres.
ent at the first Irrigation Congress.
in Salt Lake City in 1891, not as a
delegate but as an interested specta.
tor. He declared that the congress
had exerted n good influence on the
national legislature at Washington; an
influence that led directly to the max.
ing Of the irrigation laws which the
governor said the people had much
reason to be proud of.
"Nine-tenths OF the water that falls
in Colorado leaves Colorado" Governor
Shafroth said. mo adequate attempt
has been made until recently to retain
these waters within the state, for state
use. | realize 1t will not be long be-
fore every drop that falls IN Colorado
will be retained excepting that taken
out under prior appropriations"
The governor pointed out the fact
that the eyes Of the world are focused
on the Western irrigation states be-
cause OF the wonders that are made
possible only by state conservation Of
state water. For the benefit OF dele
gates from other states and from for.
eign countries the governor devoted a
few minutes to an exposition OF what
irrigation had done and Is expected to
do for Colorado. He quoted statistics
which must have been startling to per-
sons not already familiar with the |
facts. In conclusion the governor invit- |
ed the delegates to see for themselves |
some of the best agricultural and hor- |
tcultural districts Of Colorado before |
going back to their homes. He hoped |
they would visit Denver, too.
Mayor Fugard of Pueblo delivered
a short Gell.worded address on behalf
of the b,
auent] 20 both welcoming addresses
at oncd and then he read message
from Pr fdent Taft as follows:
Il regret that my official duties pre-
vent my presence at the National Irri-
cation Congress, as it would be plea
sure to extend a personal greeting to
members and to show my regard for
the policies for which it stands and
the work in which 1t is interested. My
views on irrigation and reclamation
are known from my public utterances,
but wish to take this occasion to ex-
press to the congress my thanks and
the thanks Of the country for what
you are doing in the great work of
rcclaiming the land Of the arid
districts. trust your counsel may
be wise and your deliberations result
in much good. WM. H. TAFT"

Science and Cheese,

A medical authority kindly assures
us that as long as cheese isn't de-
cayed it will not affect the health Of
the consumer. This is fact that we
have suspected for considerable
time. But how is the ordinary cheese
epicure to detect the difference-un-
less he waits for results?
There is cheese SO thoroughly dis
guised in the costume and aroma of
decay that its proper standing on the
sanitary testing table would puzzle a
conjuror.
For instance, there is the brand
known as limburger.
But why pursue this subject?

The Jeffries-Johnson prize fight
has practically been declared off
at San Francisco through the
action of the governor of Cali
fornia who has issued instruc-
tons to prevent the fight being
pulled off in that state. Admis-
sion tickets to the value of $780,
600 have already been sold and
work on the arena to the extent
of $4,000 has already been done.
The latter will be almost a COM
plete loss. The fight will now
probably go to Nevada as it is
said Utah officials are also a.
gainst having it occur in that
state.
