STORAGE COMBINED
WITH DRY FARMING
Operations of {. C.. Harrington Near
Wenden-San Diego Capitalist Will
Take Advantage of That Sections
Varied Opportunities.

E. c. Harrington of San Diego, Cal,
has placed scrip on 800 acres of land
one mile north of Wenden. He in
tends to get his affairs settled in
California and remove with his family
to Wenden within few months, max
ing that place his future home.
This will be fortunate and i'm
portant addition to the desert colony
for Mr.. Harrington is a cultured and
experienced business man. He is at
present associated with the SprecklcL
interests in southern California, in
looking after their lands and under
stands thoroughly the planting and
handling of orchards and is especially
familiar with the conservation of
flood waters for irrigation. Seeing
the advantages to be secured in Gull
lings valley for utilizing the flood
waters was one Of the important rea-
sons that decided him to locate there.
Mr.. Harrington had only decided on
this move after having made several
trips there within the last year and
having the soil analysed by different
experts, who pronounce it excellent
for most crops particularly nuts. 1t
is especially god for the soft shell
almond which Mr.. Harrington intends
to plant extensively and depend on
as his main crop for the future. He
has made study of the almond here
and the possibilities Of the improved
and budded variety of the soft shell
led nut. He sees more in it for
permanent investment than any
thing else In the agricultural line.
Trees can be planted that will
commence to bear in three years.
In the meantime he will plant other
crops that can be raised by dry
farming methods and the utilizing
and conserving of the rain fall and
flood waters.
AS Mr.. Harrington does not expect
returns for three years he will make
success for he has plenty Of means
to get his land In shape. He will
own his own drilling outfit and put
down numerous wells and probably
pump from one central station, thus
being prepared to keep his trees
properly supplied with moisture.
There are many places along the
Harqua Hala and Harcuvar noun
tains, in Cuttings. valley, where flood
waters can be damned and saved
to irrigate small farming tracts The
.Wendenites may consider themselves
very fortunate in securing Mr.. Har
rington for he has been looking all
over the west for suitable soil and
climate to raise these nuts, for the
last two years, and he considers this
location to be ideal.-Arizona Repub-

Why Uncle Reuben Could Not Meet
Debt He Acknowledged as

Uncle Reuben, the village white
washer and man of all work, was
frequent borrower of small sums
from his neighbor, Colonel Arkwright.
and as a rule he repaid these little
debts at the appointed time; but on
one occasion, when he had been &C
commodated with a loan of two dol
lars and a half, which he promised
to return in a few days, he allowed
two or three weeks to pass without
making any mention OF his indebted
ness. and in fact, seemed to avoid
his creditor. But one morning the
colonel Unexpectedly encountered him
at the postoffice.

PUTTING IT RATHER NEATLY

Professor to the Highest
SUBMITS of Joy.

IL is told that after Professor Ay.
toun had made proposals of marriage
TO Miss Emily Jane Wilson, daughter
OF Christopher North, he was, as q
matter of course, referred to her IA
ther. AS the professor was uncom-
monty diffident, he said to her:
Emily, my dear, you must speak to
MIN for me. l could not summon
courage to speak to the professor on
this subject"
Papa Is in the library" said the
lady.
Then you had better go to him."
said the professor, "and / will wait
here"
There being apparently no help for
1t, the lady proceeded to the library.
"Papa's answer is pinned to the
back Of my Dress" said Miss Wilson,
as she re-entered the room.

read these words:

A New Sensation.

Little Jean had visited one of the
large summer amusement parks for
the first time, and with the courage
possessed only by those girls whose
playmates are boys and girls older
than themselves, she had not hest
tated, when invited, to take a ride on
one of the "thrillers" that abound in
such places.
TO her mother, on her return from
the park, she confided the emotions
she had experienced as she swept
round the curves of the figure eight
with her elder brothers.
