Thursday evening each week the
observer will find the assembly hall in
Slime & Hendricks Offices crowded to
the point where standing room is at
q premium. This is the lecture night
when the statesmen of the concern
and friends, who are interested In
farm lands, congregate TO hear soil
and products discussed by experts.
The idea was Incorporated some time
ago and is meeting with increased
popularity.
The last lecture. which was on al

superintendent of the public service
department of the University of Cali

excerpt from his talk shows tho state
wide popularity of the forage:

the Sacramento, you know 1t is a
successful crop throughout that val

OF the state alfalfa is equally valu-
able as a forage crop You will

below the sea level. From this you
can gain the idea that the crop is a
staple so far as the state of Calffor-

ably to the question of alfalfa and
the possibility of using alfalfa as

LaborerS' Homes
At 50 Cents a Day

Homes that workingmen can pur-
chase at a total cost of SO cents a day
are about to be built in one OF the
New York suburbs. Plans for $50
such buildings have been prepared
and for them there are already coo
applicants. The idea is that OF DR..
Joseph Caccavajo, a civil engineer
and authority on housing problems,
who has the cooperation of several
of the large Industrial concerns re-
Gently located in Long Island City
The scheme is not a philanthropic one,
but has for its object the making of
profits while supplying workingmen
with livable homes at low cost 1t is
of interest In California as pros
pective condition which may some day
after the opening of the canal have
to be met here
Doctor Caccavajo, discussing the
scheme. said that he proposes to con-
struct two story brick, stone or hol
low tile houses OF the type famiiiarle
known as Philadelphia houses. con
tanning six rooms and bath. which the
wage Garner can purchase on the sam
basis as though he were paying rent.
These houses Will be far superior t.
the best types of England Belgium
and Germany, where SO much thought
has been given to the proper housing
OF workingmen. Cottages will range
in price to meet the incomes of pur-
chasers and it will be possible for
workingmen to buy homes for a price
as low as So cents day, which, with
taxes, water and fire insurance. will
bring the total cost up 20 SO cents.
The only conditions to be exacted
are that those purchasing the houses
shall be of good moral character
that they have been steadily employed
for a period Of not less than five
years; that. their present employers
recommend them as men or women
who can be depended upon to meet
their obligations; that there shall be
at least one, and preferably more
children to each family and that the
general health of the members of the
family shall be good.
The first group of buildings viii be
erected in Long Island City. where
the growth of Industrial plants has
created demand for homes for
workers. That group will contain
about $50 homes.

People Into City

Placing the stamp Of approval on
the Twin peaks tunnel project by the
board OF supervisors is looked upon as
one Of the most important and sub
stantiaI forward movements for the
development of San Francisco that 1t
ever has been the privilege of any
similar board to pass upon.
Assurances of the construction of
the tunnel and the extension OF Mar
kst street IL regarded as meaning that
the population of the city will be In
creased by 100000 within three years
and zoo. .0eo within the next flve years
Those who have for years advocated
the engineering measure which will
bring $4,000 acres OF the best resi-
dence property on the peninsula
within Is minutes Of the business cen
ter of the city by means Of rapid
transit through the tunnel feel that
the supervisors have opened the way
for a new era of permanent develop
ment in San Francisco.
The building Of the Twin peaks
tunnel Is regarded as meaning that
San Francisco will come by its own
and will be known far and wide as a
city Of the finest home surroundings
to be found on the American or any
other continent.

ton of the tunnel means the building
up of the restricted residence parks on
the farther side Of the Twin peaks
hills; that property values will in
crease and that general prosperity will
come with the increased population.
1t has been argued by many that,
as a result of business advantages
alone, business men in Market and
the larger diverging business streets
could well, afford to pay the entire
assessment incident to the building of
the bore under the Twin peaks which
will link the city's main artery with
the vast acreage on the southwest side
of the range OF hills which has always
been Inaccessible.
Under the present proceedings the
city has been practically given free of
cost this monumental Improvement,
as So per cent of the 100000 which
the tunnel will cost Is to be borne by
the property owners beyond the south
westerly slope Of the Twin peaks hills.

The announcement of the chief fea-
ture OF the solano harbor plan by
Engineer Newman OF the state harbor
commission gives the first definite
idea of the Importance Of that trans
uortation development. In the hrst

By taking out the kinks and curves
Of beaverton slough, providing a
straight channel in its place, the haul
to the bay is materially shortened.

for the future OF Solano is that actual
construction OF the Chipps island

that 1t will be completed In 20 months.

in 1915; and as the governments
grant for its construction provided
that use OF the long span should be
open to all railroads, 1t will doubtless
become the rail highway for every
line connecting the northern part OF
the state with tho bay region. Also
With road for vehicle traffic 1t
will be the route for auto travel be-
tween the bay and the Sacramento
valley.
The surveys and soundings for the
bridge have been completed and the
steel specifications prepared. In adj
dition to the approaches the bridge
will be 5000 feet long and ~ feet
high, with a vertical lift span ESQ
feet long to permit the passage OF
high masted vessels.
The first step for fall activities on
Solano irrigated Farms was taken
during the week by the shipment Of
250 mules to be used in canal con-
struction. From now on the extern
sion of the big irrigation system will
proceed rapidly and the thousands of
acres already sold or to be sold this
winter will be supplied with water
