TELLS OF SUCCESS
ON IRRIGATED LAND
Charles j. Blanchard Points to West
as "The American
Eden"

Pointing to the west as spelling success
for farmers on the irrigated lands,
Charles J. Blanchard. statistician of the
United States reclamation service, lee
tured on 1.-The American Eden before
the National Geographic Society at the
Masonic Temple last night. He told OF
the transformation of deserts into profit
able farms and of thriving towns growing
up where humanity was practically un-
known before. and showed colored stere-
opticon views of 1.-The before and after
process.
Mr.. Blanchard declared that America
Eden was in the irrigated sections of the
west, and it was similar to the first
garden. because of the little rainfall. He
explained how. the necessary moisture
was provided by canals. and asserted that
highbrowed agriculturists were welcomed
: lin Ireland of even chance.
Makes Comparisons.
The views shown by Mr.. Blanchard
were particularly appreciated. He dis
played photographs, one taken in the
early spring and another in the late sum-
mer of the same year. Only a desert was
apparent in the first, but the second
showed a transformation almost magic

gathered by Mr.. Blanchard during one OF
his annual 2O,OOO-mile trips through the
irrigated regions.

AN ANEcDoTE OF M'KINLEY.

more anxiety to him than the decision
Of the supreme court on the status of
the colonies. 1t was matter of great
moment whether the highest judicial
body should uphold the view of the
administration that the constitution
sanctioned the possession of colonies
which were not granted full represen-
tation. There were conflicting rumors
and forecasts of the color of the deci-
sion. and these added to the tension
felt at Washington. Shortly before
the announcement of the finding of the
court subordinate officer of one Of
the departments appeared at the White
House at an unusual hour and insisted
upon seeing the president on the plea
of important business. Having been
admitted. he came at once to his err
rand
MIR. President, have some good
news for you. | have just learned au.
thoritatively that the decision of the

The next step Is to treat this mass
in rotary spinning machine. First
the mass is spun into coarse yarn.
Then it is drawn and spun until it be

For long time the problem of spin

culties by reason of the manner In
which the threads persisted in slipping
past one another. Eventually it was
found that. under the microscope. a
thread of asbestos displayed a notched
surface and that by means Of special
twisting the spinning could be success
fully accomplished. The result is that,
after many years of experiment, manu-
