New York.-Unquestiona Tony Cammera is hero. He is double dyed hero, for he not only saved a woman from drowning the other day, but he jumped into Coney Island creek to do 1t. And not only that, but he wore the white uniform of a member of the street cleaning depart ment at the time, and his uniform will never be white again.
 Mrs. Mary Smith. thirty-five, went boating on Coney Island creek with John Braun, who has reached the ma ture age of sixty. Braun had an idea that he could catch some crabs, and pursuant to said idea he upset the boat while trying to handle the lines.

English Government Is Redeem ing Many Acres of Dry Land.
Powerful Recommendation of Irriqa- ton Commission and Courageous Energy of Lord Curzon Need
 ed for Ultimate Success.

London.-The Times of India gives some interesting facts regarding the work done by the Indian government in extending the irrigation system of the land. Of the Deccan system, it says:
 "The Deccan schemes are of first class importance and value. They make a vivid appeal to our imagina- tion and sympathy If we look at a rainfall map of India we see a large parched patch of country enveloping and Bijapur and parts of Nasik and and Bijapur andparts of Nasik and Poona Here the laborious cultivator has learned to look for drought and famine in one year out of three, and in a vastly wider area a scanty and insufficient rainfall is as likely to be received as a plenteous watering. In the Deccan there is no question of watering a desert and bringing in colony of people to enjoy the results. The cry for water comes from the people whose native homes are on the soil and who year after year SOW their crops uncertain of the return, frequently having to sell their treas ures and migrate in search of labor, in order to find the means of sub sisteuce.
 The soil is rich and capable of bearing fine crops, and along its whole western border runs the mighty but tress of the Chats which brings down an unfailing deluge of water, sufficient to irrigate the land many times over. What more simple than to store water in the hills and deal it out through canals upon the thirsty plains? Yet the difficulties to be faced are some of the hardest in any irrigation prob lem in India. The construction of the great storage reservoirs in the Chats proved extremely costly: owing to the conformation of the country, the align ment of canals from the best sites for

storage works to the districts requir- ing water presented complications; and the fluctuations of rainfall in the plains seriously affected prospects of regular revenue.
 Government obtains returns for it's outlay upon irrigation both directly by payments made for the water serv- ice, and indirectly, by the increased wealth, and therefore increased tax able capacity, which it confers on the people.
 Tt needed the powerful recom- mendation of the irrigation commits sion and the courageous energy of Lord Curzon to insure the problem which the Deccan presents being boldly attacked and steadily pushed forward to solution The commission found that of the soil in the Deccan which might beneficially be irrigated, 95 per cent. was without irrigation. In the secretariat of the government of Bombay now lies a new map of the Deccan upon which may be seen the results of the labors of the last seven years Every catchment area in the Chats has been investigated, and every possible site for a reservoir examined as the commission desired.
 Every square mile of the Deccan has been surveyed, the best align ments for canals in all directions have been sought out. The new map of the Deccan is covered with a maze

The fly net is a saver of feed.

Some untitled fields are better so.
 The moving farmer gathers no gear.
 A rain time is worth nine out of season.
 Making poor hay means milking a poor COW.
 Too many men mistake promise for prosperity.
 A Sunday morning in church will not offset week of sharp dealing with ones neighbors
 The main reason why so many farm CTS are failures is that they are trying to farm and buy their living, instead of raising it.
 The time will come when we will have hornless cattle as sure as we now have thornless cactus. Horns are as useless as thorns.
 Some think it an eXtravagance for a farmer to have a motor car, but we take the position it is better for him to buy gasoline than beer.
 There is coined money enough in the United States to give each resi- dent $35. If you haven't got yours try working on a farm this summer.
 If you cannot afford to buy a manure spreader better rent-not bor- row-your neighbours. The use of a rented one for two or three seasons will enable you to buy one.

Completion of the Harbor Works Gives Rumania an Important
 Black Sea Terminal.

The completion of the new harbor works at Constanza gives Rumania a new and important terminal and port on the Black sea, especially adapted for the export of the principal prod ucts of the country, grain and petro- leum. The equipment of the harbor demands especial attention, as being wholly modern and complete.
 The huge storehouses for grain are of the greatest interest, since they have a capacity of more than 150,000,- 900 pounds (2,600,000 bushels), and with the exception of the old Ruman- ian government warehouse at Galatz and Braila, they are claimed to be the largest on the continent.
 An examination of the extensive ar engagements for receiving, weighing, storing and shipping the grain will give an idea of the tremendous quanti- ty which is brought from the interior

 She pinned them this way and that, and it was not without a thought as to how Pat would like them best that she finally arranged them in her belt, pinned there by a shamrock Pat himself had given her the year before. On her way uptown to the ball Norah stopped to call for her chum, Katie Malone, who was maid-of-all work to a family in the next block
 An you must share my bouquet Katie, my darlin'," she said to the girl
 Their tongues wagged busily as they climbed the stairs to the ele- vated road in great haste lest they miss even one strain of the fiddler's music. Their hearts were beating quickly in anticipation of the eye ning's pleasure, for Katie, too, had a son of Erin who awaited her coming with anxious eyes. It was not the custom in their set to be called for by their beaux-it was a waste of

Just why Mrs Thompson Carding- CT decided to use yellow as her color scheme at the last of the series of bridge parties she was giving is not known It may have been that it was her favorite shade; it may have been tiat it harmonized with her costume of the afternoon, or. ii may have been simply because yellow spring flowers, jonquiis, daisies and tulips were plentiful in the florists shops in March.
 But the very fact that she had se- lected yellow instead of any other hue in the rainbow made all the difference in the world to her faithful cook. Norah.
 Norah was a daughter of the Elm erald Isle and she never lost an op- portunity to go to St. Patricks ball whenever the anniversary of that good saints birth rolled around. And in all the five years that she had been in the country she had never failed to dance the opehing waltz with big Pat Deasy from her own County Cork
 No1ahs mistress had chosen the afternoon of St Patrick's day fer her bridge party, and when the last guest had gone and Mrs. Cardinger's du- ties as hostess were over, she stepped into the kitchen to give a word of praise to her cook for the extra effort she had made to have the pastries and coffee toothsome and dainty

MANY BENEFITS TO FARMERS
Cooperation Aids AgricuIturist to Raise Full Crop, Improve Land
 and Build Up Stock.

In nothing has cooperation been of so much service as in farming. To brace the farmer up to raise a full crop, of good quality, of the kind that is most needed and therefore brings the best price, that will improve his land by manure and drainage and cul- tivation, that will improve his stock and bring his intelligence into play these are the largest benefits that come from association in a farmers business organization says Desert Farmer. Next comes the assembling and manipulation of his crop to put the raw material into shape for the markets, one step toward the con- sumer, one middleman skipped. By this association, the benefit of leadership is secured From the 50 or 100 or 800 constituting the associa- ton, five or ten directors are selected for their superior ability and their willingness to apply this ability for the equal good of the less able
 There are these two important diff ferences between this cooperation and state socialism-it is voluntary; each member benefits by his own effort and suffers by his own deficiency What men do voluntarily they com monly do better than what they do by force. By process of education in voluntary associations, men would be- come social and find enjoyment in doing not only their own share, but their best for the good of all They would not do it as they now are; and there is no ground for the assertion that they would be suddenly changed by change 1n system. Law does not change men, it hardly changes affairs. New laws intended to check men and corporations from getting rich and otaers from getting poor have been passed ever since we can remember, Out there are bigger millionaires and nore renters and hirelings now than ever. Such laws fail to work as in- tended

 poets of better results than were at one time believed possible. Most of their schemes show an estimated rev enue of three or four per cent, and for all of these the government of h. dia is now prepared to advance funds.
 "It is an irony that the best soil in this region is in those parts which are farthest removed from the zones of regular rainfall In the future this topsy-turvy arrangement of nature will be of no consequence. The dry and thirsty districts of Ahmednagar and it's neghbors have a latent ca pacity for becoming one of the rich est wheat-producing tracts in India. When canals have made the country independent of the rainfall. even the Deccan ryot may forget the meaning of drought and the pain of turning his wife's bangles into rupees every third or fourth year.
 One of the greatest of the new projects is the Godaveri river scheme. This is nearing completion, and sev- eral miles of it's canals will be brought into use in the coming mon- soon. The distributing channels will serve 240,000 acres of ground in Nasik and Ahmednagar. The whole catchment area surrounding the sources of the Godaveri and it's upper tributaries, the Darna and Kadwa, is brought under control for the benefit of the scheme. This represents an area of no less than 160 square miles"

 The object of the union is to secure for the producer the best possible price for both long and short staple cotton.

In spite of the repeated warnings of the press in the handling of bulls more deaths are reported from goring by these animals this year than ever before. A fairly safe way is to blind fold vicious bull when he is being led. To lead bull by rope without nose stick is always Inviting disas- ter. A woman was recently killed by a bull. She tried to blind the animal with hat pin but was not successful.
