coming.
Officer Dimmick escorted the little

The discussion of the Alabama sys-
tenn of hiring out convicts to work in
coal mines has brought out a new
proposition to the effect that, instead
of leasing the men to the coal com
panies, the state should itself lease q
large coal mine, in which the convicts
could be employed directly under the
supervision of state officers. 1t does
not appear that this plan will remove
the objections which have been raised
against the working of the men in the
mines. 1t is not charged that the
companies i'll treat the men, and the
main argument has been that they are
put into a hazard ous occupation with
out their own consent. Many of them
are unfamiliary with mining, which
largely increases the risk. The new
plan would simply shift the RESPONSE
bility from the coal companies en-
pIoying the men to the officers APP

his great weight to weaken Flynn, but
the latter invariably had the best OF

to send back worse than he took.

INTERESTED IN RESULTS
AMERICAN EXPERIMENTS
South America Is Doing Work in

tina Proposing to Establish a
Bureau to Direct Reclamation

Egypt may have practiced irrigation
centuries before the United States
government took it up on the scale
evidenced in some of the big western
projects, but Egypt is now encounter
ing troubles incident to irrigation
and looking to this country for help
in solving them. One of the features
to the land in the valley of the Nile
was it's perennial fertility. The over.
flow of the great stream each year
spread the necessary fertilizer, and
crop succeeded crop without diminu-
ton. Since the building of the dam al
Assuam, however, the cotton produc-
ton has fallen off so markedly that
the government has put experts to
work on investigati ting the cause.
Silt Sinks to Bottom
The general belief is that, owing to
the obstruction in the rover the rich
silt drops to the bottom of the dam
thus taking from the waters held in
storage the rich qualities needed by
cotton planted land. While the stor-
age of the water by the dam meant
the cultivation of additional thousands
Of acres, where the yield per acre
prior to it's construction was 525
pounds, is is now only 440.
Pumping Results
At present the government is in
vestigating the subsoil water with a
view to asoertaining its rate of move
ment and location. The water COM
panies OF Cairo and Assioot have no.
ticed that during pumping operations
the water in a well 656 feet distant
was reduced inches. Similar eX-
periments in America, it is said, have
shown that dumps drawing water
from sands and gravels reduce the
level of the water table in their i'm
mediate vicinity by some 6 to 20 feet
while the supply from below appar-
emily balances the demand.
Chance for Americans
Irrigation is receiving general at
tention now in South America. In
Argentina bill has been introduced
in the senate providing for the estab-
lishment of bureau of irrigation
The bill also provides for the employ
ment of technical expert from
abroad of known competency in irri-
cation works, who may have planned
and executed works for DETECTING
rivers from their courses and damine
them, as we'll as building canals for
irrigation of arid land. 1t would seem
that here was chance for the Ameri-
can irrigation engineer.

where there is little surface water
but plenty below The government
has been prospecting about Valpa-

AS a practical demonstration of its
interest the agricultural society will
hold an exhibition from December 10

The effects of the great drought Of
this summer, which has ended only
In limited sections of the country,
have already made themselves felt in
a serious way in the shape of price
advances. Vegetables of all kinds
now cost from two to four times as
much as in normal summers, while
milk prices have been advanced in
most parts of the country. The sit
uation confronting the working peo-
pie of the cities during the winter is
a most serious one and movements
for an increase of wages have be-
come much more frequent than us
ual. A considerable advance has al
ready occurred in the prices of all
sorts of food-tuffs for live stock To
make matters still worse the hoof
and mouth disease is still spreading
rapidly.
In order to relieve the situation
the state railways have reduced
freights to one-half on bran, hay
and straw; but no reduction was
made on barley and Indian corn The
Chamber of Commerce of Frankfort
has petitoned for temporary repeal
OF the rate on corn, which amounts
to S7.5O per ton as measure of re-
liet for the animal Industry
