An interesting rumor comes from
Paris to the effect that the Duchess de
Chaulnes, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Theodore P, Shonts. of New York, is
soon to announce her engagement to
Andre de Fouquieres. of Paris.
The Duchess de Chaulnes made her
debut in Washington several winters
ago, when Mr.. and Mrs. Shonts took
house here for the season, and her mar
riage to the Duke de Chaulnes followed
shortly afterward. a year or so after
the marriage the duke died in Paris, and
since then the duchess has divided her
time between this country and Europe.
She spends some time each Year visit
ing in Washington. and was guest
here early in the spring for several
weeks.
Mr.. de Fouuuieres has just returned to
Paris from America, where he has been
delivering a series Of lectures on dress
among the American society folk. He
was in Washington in the spring, about
the same time the Duchess de Chaulnes
was here, visiting Mr.. and Mrs. Perry

WHAT ARE THE INDICTMENT

and from the earliest dawn, has been
constantly moving westward. 1t seems
to have been so arranged by a wise
Providence. The American people be-
gan business on the shores of the At
lantic; they are now in the Philippines
There have been reasons for. this The
first people of Idaho came on foot in
search of gold. They found plenty of
It, The next came with oxen and mule
trains; then they came on the over

Ing on electric and steam railways. 1t
is estimated that in Idaho, which is
almost twice as large as the state of
Iowa, there is room for ten million of
! people. There are less than half
, million here. Now. those that have
already come, had some indueement
for coming, and to put the object of
this article III plain English. we want
the other nine and a half million to
come as soon as possible, and there are
many inducements that we can offer
J to them for coming, and these are what
we shall attempt to give in this arti-
/ Gle which is intended really for readers
/ in the east and middle west
Among other great inducements that
, Idaho can offer is that of the most
! ideal climatic conditions. and this is
one among the great inducements that
Z. II does have to offer. ] know that some
! people account for Immigration to the
west on the ground of their search for
cheap and public lands Doubtless
this Is also one inducement, and idaho
has an abundance Of both. but do not
think it is the greatest inducement
We all understand that it is a serious
matter for any one to leave the state
Of their nativity. and the old home,
with all its surroundings and endear-
ments and emigrate to strange land

later on In the article says some very
nice things about irrigation, and |
shall quote quite freely from this arti-
Gle. but I+think that publication, like
many Of its eastern readers. really has
wrong IDEAS of irrigation in general.
Two Methods of irrigation.
What complications there are about
irrigation, such as building dams or
raising water to a higher level by
wheels or motors. are questions that
always confront the government or the
owner and promoter of the project and
seldom. II ever, directly or indirectly,
reach the tifier Of the soil. There are
only two methods of irrigation In Ida
ho. either Of which is very simple.
one is where water is conducted from
a lateral to the vegetation through the
rows of trees. or corn, or potatoes, or
whatever the crop may he, by means of
small burrows or bitches and is allowed
to permeate the loose soil and come
in contract with the roots of the vege-
tation by soaking through the ground
the bitches, The other method
Is where the lateral Is constructed
along the high side Of the land desired
to be irrigated Water is let into It
and the gates shut at one end over
flowing the side next to the land which
IS always the lowest thereby sending
an even flow of water over the surface.

this article knows that all the scien-
tific knowledge needed to hands.
either OF these propositions could be
acquired in "A hours. The only sure
success in either agriculture or horti-
culture is by means of irrigation.
Every agricultnrist and horticulturist
IN the rain belt will bear witness to the
fact that seasons are SO changeable
there and the amount of precipitation
so doubtful, that no two are exactly
alike. When rain is needed there may
be too much. It may drown out the
crops and carry the soil from the hills
into the valleys, or there may not he
enough and their crops may fail for
lack of rain. With irrigation this can
not occur. Therefore, not only are the
crops Of the country sure under irriga-
ton but the commercial interests, in
fact. every business interest which sis
more or less based upon the products
of the soil Is also certain Of success.
There is no sainsaying these facts, and
it looks as though the homeseekers of
