 HAVE \ BIG FEAST

The Examiner has conversed with the Cocopah Indians in this city today and is reliably informed that the In- dians of the Cocopah tribe of the low CT valley, including those over the line in Mexico, are preparing for a feast and fiesta at SomertOn, begin ming today and ending Friday. It will be the greatest affair of the kind ever pulled off in the Yuma Valley Invitations have been sent out to all of the Indians of the lower Colorado including the Imperial valley and the Volcano Lake country. They will have all of the many Indian attractions common to such an occasion in clud- ing races, foot races, wrestling match es, games, etc The affair is being well advertised and a big crowd of people are expected to attend during the fiesta.

FIGHTING LIGHTNING

Following up the story in Saturday s Examiner to the effect that lightning struck the Yuma Postoffice at nine o'clock Saturday morning and ball of fire of gigantic proportions (so they say), chased the Postmaster and his assistants in 40 different directions in double quick time; that same sort of things happened a second time dur ing the same electric storm and put out the lights again and caused the same postmaster another chase and a bad scare.
 Now The Examiner has been study ing the lightning question little, and hereafter will insist that if lightning must strike here, it had better quit striking our able Postmaster and land on several other local lights that need it, for our. MT. Chandler is one of the best postmasters Yuma ever had, and he doesn't need any lightning
 Besides the serious feature is that Captain Meeden may refuse to take the job if it happens again. Yuma may turn up minus a postmaster, cause Russ can't fight lightning ano stay in the game.

At the present time we have no de- sire to leave this vale of tears and Eurl ourselves onto Abraham's bosom. But if we desired to do so we would not lean up against a loaded gun and pull the trigger, as many do; neither would We eat a solid meal of rough on rats, blow out the gas, drink con- centrated lye, sit in the lap of buzz saw, nor call a Kentuckian a liar or a poor judge of bad whiskey.

The entire length of the Siphon from gate to gate is 1150 feet and the inside diameter of the tunnel under the river is 14 feet.
 About $7,000,000 has been expended by the United States Reclamation Service on the great work of the Yuma project, the greatest and first work of which was completed two years ago-the Laguna Dam, 12 miles above Yuma-from which the Color ado's flow is carried in ditches to the Siphon mouth, a distance of 12 miles on the California side.

should be done until after the super visors have agreed among themselves. But want to help.
 "The money must be used in build ing new roads and not in the construc- tiOn of bridges and culverts and old roads. The object of the law is to provide for the construction of new roads.
 "I think the law is a good one and that it will result in many fine roads eventually being built in Arizona. This money will be coming in every year, and while it is not a large sum, it will go long way in getting good roads built in the state"
 According to plans recently outlin- ed by Engineer Cobb, the building of that section of the state highway to connect Bisbee and Tucson will be re- sumed early in June. About $15,000 will be spent on that stretch of road under the direct supervision of Engi- neer Cobb and the Pima county Board of Supervisors.
 Work will probably start at Tucson and proceed to Andrade'S ranch, where the grading for the highway built by Territorial Engineer J. B. Girand commenced. It is believed that $5,000 will cover all the expenses of putting the road in first class condi- tion from Tucson to the Cochise coun- ty line. Five thousand more will be spent between Tucson and Florence, and the remaining $5,OOO on the road to Nogales.

Phoenix, AriZ., June 29.-There is no buster man in Arizona than State Engineer Lamar Cobb. In order 10 expedite the work of his office h. has divided the state into two districts and he will have an assistant in charge of each. John Barlow, of Tue son, has been made one assistant and placed in charge of the northern divis- ion, which includes Yavapai, Mohave, CoconinO, Apache and Navajo cOun- ties The other position as assistant has been offered to J. M. Ruthrauff, also of Tucson, who has declined.
 "The new law will bring about $250,- 000" said MT. Cobb in a recent state ment. "This money is to be spent for the building of new highways and the maintenance of old ones. Seventy five per cent of the money raised by this tax in each county is to be spent in the county paying it. This money will be spent under the direction of the board of supervisors. They will consult with the state engineer in doing this. The boards of supervisors will determine what they want to build and then they will let the state engineer know their plans. It is up to him to see that good work is done as far as the engineering part of the work is concerned and that the road money is not wasted on building the branches.

Now that the Siphon is completed and Yuma is about to begin to make figures for the next census which The Examiner has every reason to believe will astonish the world, it is interest ing to note that according to the Uni ted States census figures, irrigation was practiced on slightly more than one-half of the farms in Arizona in 1909, being 525 per cent, to be ac- curate In 1899 the proportion of ir- rigated farms among those outside of Indian reservations was 73.S per cent while in 1889 it was 75.4 per cent. It is thus evident that between 1889 and 1909 the number of unirrigated farms increased more rapidly than the num- Der of irrigated farms, while the diff ference in favor of the irrigated farms has been even more marked during the last decade.
 In five out of the thirteen counties of the state more than half the farms are irrigated, in three the proportion is between 40 and 50 per cent, while in two it is between 25 and 40 per cent. In the remaining counties, Ap- ache, Navajo and Coconino, less than one-fourth of the farms are irrigated. These latter counties are in the north eastern portion of the state, where a large percentage of the farms reported are cattle ranches, on which the rais- ing of crops is of but secondary inn portance. Pinal county shows the largest per cent or irrigated farms, BPS per cent, and Graham county the next largest, SC 1 per cent.
 From 1889 to 1909 the increase in the number of irrigated farms in Ari- zona outside of those supplied by the Indian service enterprises, was 39.S per cent. This percentage of increase was exceeded in five counties, all but one of which are in the southern part of the state The highest rates of gain being 132 5 per cent in Cochise

The Calexico Chronicle says:


 Frank N. Chaplin and David H. Chaplin, convicted in the Federal courts of technical violation of law in dealing in assignments of desert land entries in Imperial Valley, have been sent to Solano County jail to serve the sentence of years Imprisonment imposed upon them. The jurors in the case declared that they found the verdict of guilty only because of the courts instruction on the law, and that they did not believe the Chap lins guilty of any criminal intent. All efforts to dissuade the court from inn posing the Imprisonment penalty were vain, and appeals were fruitless.
 The Chaplins got into trouble by following the practice and advice of the Land Office, but were not permit ted to show that fact by the testimony

county, no per cent in Yuma county
 and GA per cent in Graham coun
 ty. In five counties decreases in the
 number of farms irrigated are shown
 while in one county the number of ir-
 rigated farms remains the same. Fol three of the five counties which show decreases in the number of irrigated farms, increases in the irrigated acres were reported, from which an increase in the acreage irrigated per farm is apparent.
 In 1910 existing enterprises were ready to supply water to 387,655 acres, or 67,604 acres more than were irri- gated in 1909.
 It is probable that after allowance is made for on increase in the area of irrigated in 1910 over that of 1909 there remained at the close of 1910 under ditch but not irrigated, at least one-third as much land as was brought under irrigation in the ten years from 1899 to 1909.
 The acreage included in projects ex- ceeds the acreage irrigated in 1909 by 624,O39 acres, which is more than four times the acreage brought under cultivation in the last decade and al most twice the total area irrigated in 1909. This acreage represents the area which will be available for the extension of irrigation in the next few years, upon the conclusion of exist ing enterprises and without new un- dertakings. It indicates in a general way the area available for settlement, although much of this unirrigated land is in farms already settled.
 It is evident from these figures that the new state of Arizona is making very satisfactory progress in the mat ter of agricultural development, and the time is not far distant when Ari- zonians will not only produce a plen- ty for themselves, but with much to spare.

time as well as evening. Dresses Of
this type with entire absence of waist
line, appeal strongly to women who
like the individual note in dress.
Some of the straight dresses recall
modes which were fashionable in
France in the fourteenth century. The
yokes, cut out in something like V
in front and on the shoulders, are
made of bands covered with embroid-
cry, and the dresses moulded to the
figure in severe style from neck to
hem have sleeves to the elbows, re-
peating the embroidered bands at the
neck.
Such a gown was seen In fashion
able New York show room last week.
Made OF clear yellow velvet, the dress
was hemmed with skunk and en-
broidered in deep tones Of gold with
a dash Of turquoise blue introduced
in the worsted girdle Of deep gold
which gave a distinctive note to the
dress. In the same show room there
was q similar gown in Jacobean ta-
pestry which had a tablier yelling Of
