COTTON CAN BE GROWN IN
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA.
Experiments Have Proven That This
Staple is Adapted to the Climate.

By mere chance it has been discov-
cred that cotton can be grown sue
cessfully in Northen California, and
perhaps even as well as in the I'M
perial Valley.
To John Curran. an employe of he
Southern Pacific Company, goes the
credit of the discovery that has al
ready prompted Northern agricultur-
lists to further the experiment. Cur
ran has charge of the railroad pump
ing station at Roseville, which is about
l07 miles from San Francisco. A car
of cotton from the South was side
tracked near Roseville, when Curran,
happening along, picked up a handful
of seed from curiosity Curran is a
man with a hobby, if so it may be
called. He wants to settle on farm
some day and be producer; that's
what he is saving for And while he is
working and saving he is utilizing all
the available space about the station
for garden purposes.
He decided to experiment with the
cotton seed and was surprised later
when he noted how it fourished. The
popped wide open. just now the cot

Ranchers and others heard of his
success and have already contracted
for seed AS result, Northern Cal
ifornia may get a comparatively big
crop next season, for the Southern
Pacific has offered to co-operae with
the growers in every manner possible
to insure good growth. 1t is only
four years ago that the cotton crop
of Imperial Valley was but one humid
red bales. This year, it is one hund-
red thousands bales; and next year
will be even larger No one knows
what possibilities are in the North.

NEVADA POTATO MARKET IS
DEMORALIZED.
Best Remedy Would be Growers and
Shippers Association.

The potato market is pretty badly
demoralized this week, reports from
the coast towns indicating that the
markets there are flooded with ship
ments from Idaho, and that the Idaho
stock is outselling the Nevada crop. al
though carrying the handicap OF six
teen hundred mile extra haul. In this
report is a lesson for local growers
that should not go unheeded. That
the Idaho potatoes are so pronounc-
edlv the favorites there is reason.
Our neighbors to the north raise
quality spuds, and until we take ex-
ample of their methods we will con-
tinue second choice in the estimation
of dealers. Recent shipments from
Mason Valley points, upon reaching
destination were found to contain
large quantities of inferior potatoes,
and these of course had to be culled
out thus reducing the gross weights
and adding to the cost-the value OF
the labor required in sorting the ship
ment over Then the resul is, loss to
the shippers and great dissatisfaction
with the commission firm which was
unfortunate enough tc be response
bic. But this condition is bound to ex-
ist as long as the present disorgan-
lied system of marketing is continued
Now for remedy. The only one
feasible is organization of growers
and shippers; have definite stand
ard established and grade all ship
ments to an honest level with the es-
tablshed standard; have the associa-
tons brand accepted wherever known
as a guarantee of perfection--the hall
mark of honesty and integrity If
this is done a great change will be
wrought in the valleys credits; the
mark or the certificate of the asso-
citation can be made to correspond
to the fat of the government on
coin, and our products can be made to
be accepted as near legal tender by all
people engaged in produce commits
sion business The forming of this
producers association is not only
form of sound business principle, but
is today step made necessary by
modern business evolution, as any of
the big business firms will testify. and
if our business was once established
it would Immediately mean to us the
difference between wanting to sell
and wanting to buy, which means that
instead of having to be continually
hunting a market for our products

A Long Way From Home.

Rev. Ella Anton, OF the Nestoarian
Church at Chaldea. has been in the
valley this week soliciting subscrip-
tons for the building of school for
orphans in Chaldea. The reverend
gentleman is a native Chaldean and
the stories he relates about his coun-
try are interesting. The HISTORIAN
Church is a Protestant institution, and
its people have suffered greatly from
Turkish persecution. Mr. Anton has
spent one year in England on this mis-
sion and two years in the United
States, and expects to be in our coun-
try for another year The amount of
money he seeks to raise is only abou
$1,000 and he is getting it in small
donations from 10 cents up.

Smith Valley Irrigation Project.

7. L. Ruffner, of Pittsburg, Pa, was
an arrival in Smith Valley this week
to look over the project of a Penn
sylvania syndicate to establish an irri-
CATION system in that valley. He was
met in Carson by c +. Shillingford
and autoed from that city to Yelling
ton. The company, of which Mr..
Ruffner is general manager. has some
5000 acres OF land in Smith Valley
which it will put under system of
dams and bitches. at an expense esti-
mated at close to quarter of a mil
lion dollars. There are other land
holders in Smith Valley who will also
come under this sysem, which will
ev ntually furnish water for between
$4,000 and 10000 acres of land.

Oil Prospects-H. A. Balerstine was

they have good oil prospects in the

nounced the formation at Spring Gulch
identical with that of the California
fields, and was quite enthusiastic over
the discovery, The oil shale and

quantities, but whether in commercial
quantities or not remains to be seen.

of a good-sized deposit of oil would
be great thing for this district as

condition of all crops is 80 per cent
of the average crop for tn past

Senators Thomas and Shafroth are
nat much of a success as statesmen

are as sly as they make them. Look
ing over the field of democratic pol

been patiently waiting now for two
whole weeks to announce the pre-
parations for his South American
trip, but cannot secure any con-
sideration at all. 1t Is outrageous

Too Many

Colorado is to have seven nation
al highways across the state. at
least the Denver papers assure us
that Denver Is on the main line of
three with all other cities on side
lines, the Colorado Springs papers
assure us that city has secured a
place for itself on two that will
leave Denver out entirely, Pueblo
has two itself with Denver and the
Springs on the side lines. This Is
about six more than Colorado can
possibly secure. and 1t is seven
more than we will secure If the

Hog Legislation I'm Coloa'Slo

July 18th the law regulating
the handling and transportation
OF hogs in Colorado went into ef-
feet. This law is in the interest
of hog cholera control. The secre-
tary of agriculture reports that
sixty-six millions of dollars is a
comparative estimate for the loss
from this disease alone, in the
last twelve months. Unless this
new law is enforced to the letter
we may expect that the loss from
hog cholera next winter will be
very heavy.
After July f5th you can not leg
ally ship hogs into Colorado, nor
move them within the state, with
out making affidavit (Which must
accompany the shipment) that they
have not been exposed to the in
fection of hog cholera and upon
reaching their destination (unless
for immediate slaughter) they must
be kept away from other hogs
for a period of eighteen days.
The hog raisers of the state. and
especially those in the Arkansas val
ley, are warned that II they do not
wake up on this hog cholera prop
osition and Systematically prepare
to combat it. hog raising will be
precarious business during the win
ter months.
After a loss of several hundred
thousand dollars worth of hogs, the
San Luis valley got busy and con-
trolIed the disease. other infected
localities can do the same thing.
The new law will help. but It must
be enforced. and there must be
active cooperation. Soc how the
San Luis valley did 1t.

State Auditor Kenehan and State
Treasurer Leddy will tomorrow
send a letter to all departments of
state stating that from now on un-
til after December l only warrants
for salaries will be drawn and
honored. This means that until af-
ter the close of the fiscal year no
cash save for salaries will be ex-
pended. The two men do not say
what will be the program after De-
cember /. 1t is safe to assume that
the same program will prevail and
only salary warrants will be drawn
and honored.
This is the worst condition that
has ever existed in state finances.
Salaries are only a part of the first
class appropriations. Incidentals are
another part of them. Under this
order not even all the first class
will be paid. This leaves the sec
ond. third and fourth classes all
unpaid. The second class consists
of the appropriations for the penal
institutions. The third class con-
sists of the appropriations for the
educational institutions.
