IRRIGATION NOT NEW.

Hundreds of thousands OF acres OF
valuable farm land have been reclaim
ed in the arid west through the means
of irrigation. The mountain streams
have been damned and their waters
diverted to irrigate vast tracts OF
sun-dried soil. Great elctTically-driV-
en- pumps have been installed to raise
millions and millins of gallons OF wa
ter from the depths of the earth to be
flooded over the dry lands in order
to stimulate the growing crops.
But. it must not be forgotten that
irrigation in the west is nothing new,
although many of these recent sys-
TENS are numbered among the gigan-
tic engineering ventures of the world,
The first systematic employment oil
irrigation in the arid west by English
speaking people was made by the
Mormons. who expelled from their
! earlier settlements in the Mississippi
! valley. sought refuge in the unknown
desert regions. and at last, after eX-
neriencing great hardships, were COM
pelled. through necessity to halt and
settle on the shores of the great salt
lake. Here the SOL Was iouhu " W
so barren that crops could not be
grown by ordinary means, and, fore
| ed through fear and privation to
adopt new and extraordinary devices
| thev turned the waters of the little
canyon streams upon the ground
where salt Lake City now stands. AZ
ter many years of scant success, or
disheartening failure they succeeded
in mastering the art of irrigation, and,
under the wisdom of their leaders
they have become prosperous peo-
pie.
Long before the Mormons came
however, small sections of the dryer
portions of the great west were be-
ing cultivated through irrigation. The
ancient canals of the town-dwelling
Pueblo Indian tribes may still be seen
in the broad valleys of the arid por-
tions of New Mexico and Arizona. on
the mesas, or highlands, of south
western Colorado and the adjacent
sections of Utah, Arizona and New
Mexico are to be found the remains of
this wonderful cliff dwellings, and in
the little nearby valleys are the irri-
eating bitches used by the inhabitants
of thousand or more years ago.

HEAT OFTEN TENDS
TO MAKE WOMEN
PALE AND WEAK
They Neglect Their Bowels and
the POisOns Vitiate the
Blood.

Hot weather has a very weakening
effect on women. They become too
languid to exercise and have appetite
for light, tasty foods, like salads and
other cold concoctions, which do not
digest readily and tend to increase
their natural tendency to constipation.
At this season women, especially,
need all their strength to resist the
enervating effect of the heat. Good
digestion and regularity of the bowels
are essential, Some fruits have laxa-
tive properties, but they are uncer-
tain in their effect, and are not gen.
orally advised. mild bowel stimu-
liant and digestant, such as DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin, is preferable be-
cause 1t is certain in its effect, nat
ural in its action, and wholly safe.
Take dose of Syrup Pepsln at night
and by morning the sick headache
and indigestion will be gone.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold
in drug stores everywhere, and costs
fifty cents a bottle; larger size, in
tended for family use, costs one dol

MULE GOES ON RAMPAGE.

Oregon City, Or, July S.--A demo-
cratic mule raised high jinks at the
courthouse and suspicious ones regard
the incident as an i'll omen. AS re-
suit of the animals escapade the
handsomest tree in the court house
yard planted when the building was
erected, was destroyed and the county
officials are angry. The mule, which
belonged to a contractor, became
frightened while being driven through
the grounds, and the driver was un-
able to control the animal. The long
cared emblem OF democracy ran at
full speed into the tree, which was
uprooted. The mule was not hurt
"Sure omen OF democratic success"
said Assessor Jack as he gazed upon
the wreck. "I am sorry we have lost
the tree. but am thankful that the
mule is safe. That's just what the
democrats will do to the republicans
next fall"
County Clerk Mulvey and other
republican officials took a different
view of the escapade of the animal,
They were certain it augured for re-
publican success
"That mule got gay quick, just like
the democrats usually do said MT
Mulvey. "The democrats do great
deal of blowing before election, but
afterward have little TO say"
