More on Sub-Irrigation.

ID. l.. Pond, one of our live ones,
who recently came from Nebraska, ID
quite Interested In sub-lrrigation.
He has been corresponding with
good authorities on the subject and
is in receipt Of the following from
the editor Of Campbell's Scientific
Farmer Of Lincoln, Neb.
Regarding the question Of irri'
cation from wells. there Is no ques-
ton in my mind now but what the
Higgins system Of sub-irrigation Il
the best plan that has so far been
developed.
'Sub-irrigation Is by far prefer
able to surface irrigation u the
proper system Of piping can be re-
sorted to. This scheme covers the
plan to prevent the roots from en-
terine the pipes. which seems quite
successful. We have watched some
operations with this system during
the past year with great deal Of
interest. =

Arnold have become proficient in the art

In the number Of women aviators
America is behind some other cOun-
tries, having only three. France has a
score or more. The American women
aviatOrs are Miss Matilde Moisant,
Miss Harriet Quimby and Miss Blanche
Stewart Scott Miss MOisant holds the
worlds altitude record for women
fliers, having ascended $500 feet. The
former record was 1000 feet, made by
Mile. Helene Dutrieu of France.
Miss Moisant is a sister of the late
John B. Moisant, who is conceded to
have been one Of the greatest air men
the world has yet produced and who
was killed while making a fight at
New Orleans on Dec. 81, 1910.
The most ambitious fight undertaken
in this country is the attempt to fly
from coast to coast now being made
by Robert G. Fowler and Calbraith P.
Rodgers, for which a $4,000 prize has
been hung up. Fowler started from
San Francisco and Rodgers from New
York.
Fowler had a reputation as an auto
mobile driver before he took up avia-
ton. His boast was that he could
drive an automobile over any Of the
mountain passes in California with his
eyes shut. He has made several trans
continental motor tours and knows all

Impure Meat to Customers.

AS a result of the Investigations of
Deputy State Dairy and Food In
spector W. B. Duncan, of Portland,
who has been in this vicinity, two
violations of the pure food law have
been discovered and in both eases
the offenders fined. Upon complaint
of the inspector, J. B. Thompson,
proprietor of the Gail hotel in Dal-
las, was arrested and taken before
Justice of the Peace Hardy Holman,
charged with having violated the
pure food act by "unlawfully and
wrongfully selling and serving adul-
terated milk" to the patrons of his
hotel without having given notice
thereof as required. He pleaded
guilty and was fined $25 and costs.
Under the present state law. it is
illegal to serve adulterated milk in
any public place without having no.
tees posted informing the patrons
of the quality Of the article.
The other offender was A. f.
West, a butcher of Rickreall, who
was arrested for selling impure meat.
