ECONOMIC USE or
IRRIGATION WATER
1t Is Just as Important to the Wet
Farmer as to the Dry Farmers,
Says DR.. v. 7. Cooke.

DR.. V. T. Cooke, the dry farming ex-
pert. and Charles Lynch of Jerome.
who went to Roosevelt on Sunday. re-
turned yesterday afternoon greatly
pleased with their sight seeing excur-
sion. The doctor said it was the most
enjoyable trip he ever had and he re-
GREETED that he could not stay longer
The doctor said ne was a dry farmer
and not a wet farmer and he did not
care To comment too freely on the 9TH
Ct mans speciality. However, ne added
that when the people of the Salt river
valley thoroughly understand dry
farming methods and apply them where
applicable here. it viii be found that
the water now used for an acre Of
land will be ample for three acres.
There should be he said, less irri-
cation and more irritation" of the soil
and a better understanding of the value
of mulches for the retention of the
moisture. An error that he thought
should be guarded against here is un-
necessary irrigation. Fruits raised
with minimum of moisture will
stand shipping better than those which
are given more moisture than they
need. Moreover, he says the flavor of
fruits is enhanced if water is used
sparingly. Thus the Salt river valley
farmers may improve conditions both
ways; lettering their crops by eco
nOmic use of water and making a given
quantity Of water serve more ground.
The doctor. who came to Arizona at
the instance of the Prescott chamber
of commerce to look over the possibili-
ties Of dry farming in Yavapai county,
said he was late in his itinerary and
had TO hurry back to his home in
Cheyenne. Wyo.. so he would not stop
III Prescott, having finished his busi-
ness there with that fact in mind. He
will. however. stop over day at the
Grand Canyon.
Asked about his final conclusions
Yavapai county he said his
advice To the Prescott people was to
secure competent man TO teach them
the art Of dry farming and then to en-
the settlement of the farming
area with successful farmers from the
east who secured their skill by farm
ing on foot" as the agricultUrist who
does his farming on horseback" sell
dom makes a success Of it. Dry farm
ing means hard work, but il pays if
done intelligently.

WOMAN ARCHITECT.

Among the women architects in this
country is Miss Fay Kellogg. who
builds not only bungalows, but office
buildings. She was a pupil of the late
John Carere and studied in Paris, being
the first TO cause the admission of
women into the BeauX Arts Architec-
tural school
More and more women every day
says Miss Kellogg, are going into ar
chitecture and the allied arts, such as
mural painting and interior decorat
ing.
Il don't say she explained to a
writer for the New Haven Journal
Courier, that a womans imagination
in this field is better than a mans, but
| do believe that women are very likely
to excel in designing and decorating
homes.
of course it's much harder to at
tempt real business buildings. Then
you are invading the field of the men

OBITUARY,

The death of little Albert Crawford,
the baby child Of Rev. NJ. X Craw ford,
deceased and Mrs. Clark nee NJ X Cra~
ford, Of Oklahoma, formerly Of this
city. 1t is appalling to know that
such worthy youth, be it white or
colored, rs little Albert Crawford was,
had to fall victim to death 80 soon,
unaware, unexpectedly and uncalled
for, as in the case of little Albert. Just
here we feel it expedient to give a short
biography OF his life and short histo-
ry O! the incident of his death As we
understand it. First, we are glad to
say that little Albert WAS reared by
careful christian parents, having had
proper home training, as circumstance
evidences show, in adhearing and heed
ing to the teaching Of the same with
care, Then in the Sunday school;
next in the church; then in the city
school. Of which he became graduate
at very early age. After having been
trusted in some of our best houses in
the city of both races, without one
scintilla OF demerit against his charac-
ter or suspicion Of dishonesty directly
or indirectly. To the regret Of his
many friends, both white and coored,
the family moved to Oklahoma, while
little Albert attended Prairie View
State Normal school, where he desired
to attain higher literary training; but
like Ponce dc Leon of old, instead, y
marked change took place in his histo-
ry, IA he received his final or death
blow instead and AZ La Sale of old
circumstance evidences, show that AL
bert was not seeking quarrel nor an
ticipating such trouble AS followed,
from the nature Of his jokes. We have
never learned the nature Of his joke in
full, and yet we feel that it WAS not
from bad motive, as we've known
little Albert from infancy to young
manhood and have never known him
to use profsne language or be rough
Joker
BE IT resolved, that we Will teach or
train, as the bible condemns joking or
using any terms that is not in accord
anoe with the teaching of the scripture
that we will fall in line and leave jok
ing behind as through life we go,
BE it resolved further, that We com
mend the many friends at Austin for
the sympathy shown to the bereaved
family.
Re il resolved also. that we commend
the sympathy and respect aud sub

PREACHING AG AINST WAR,
Most of the churches and

we'd Sunday Of this week as Ar
bitration Sunday Sermons
were preached against the wick
edness of war, and in favor Of
treaties Of arbitration"
War is a curse, and in this age
of civilization, wholly unnecessa-
ry. Enlightened nations should
submit all difficulties to arbitra-
ton, thereby saving millions of
lives and dollars.
The only hope for the abolish
ment Of war is that of the united
opposition of the Public School
teachers of the land.
BY their efforts in one or two
generations, war would be thing
of the past Too little is being
done in our schools to educate
the boys and girls to see that
war is WHOLESALE murder, le-
Called. What q blessing to hu
manity it would be, If our
churches sent forth a condemn
ing uttrance on war each Sab
bath day and if our teachers
each day in the week gave forth
the same.
