NJ MORESHEEP
 SAYS W. J. A.
Pass Resolution Urging That Bloody Basin Wa tershed Be no Longer Impaired by Pasturing of FlOckS There.

At the meeting of the board of governors of the Water Users assO- citation yesterday morning, in the pre- sence of a strong delegation of sheep men, the board went on record strong ly against the issue of any more per mits for flock grazing along the upper slopes of the Bloody Basin and Lime Creek section on account of the dan ger to the watershed such grazing causes and in order that the water resources of the Rio Verde which is depended upon largely for the steady supply for the canals in this valley for irrigation purposes. Only the normal flow of the Salt is generally used. and this added to the normal flow of the Verde furnish the constant supply of irrigable water. When there is a shortage the water bank at Roosevelt where the flood waters of the Salt river and TOntO creek are kept, is called upon to, supply what is needed for the valley.
 For few years past it has been noted that the erosion on the water shed of the Verde has been increasing with the consequent impairment of the supply. Should this be kept up until the water shed was sufficiently badly damaged the Verde instead of 
 now, would become q torrentiaI stream and d storage dam would be needed
 on that river to keep for use. what has heretofore been naturally supplied
 in the ordinary daily course Cf the life of the river. It is to ObViatc any such condition as this. that the resolu-
 tions asking the forest service @ dis continue the permits to sheep owners for flock grazing was passed.
 For some years now the cOntro-
 versy has been raging between the
 Water Users body and the sheep
 growers of the state. About twelve
 thousand sheep are pastured there at times during the year. These times occur during the drive from the north
 to the south in the fall for shcaring, and to the north from the south in the spring. The number of sheep kept there have been materially decreased in the last few years until there are not more than half many there now as once were there; however, it is considered by engineers who have examined the water shed that d con
 tinuatfon of this policy of grazing will permanently impair the water shed
 unless it is stopped.
 The water shed in question has been set apart for the use of the reclamation service, and through them to the farmers of the valley, but haN- ing no means of administering jt. the | reclamation service asked the tCrest i service to do this. which has been l done. Several years ago number CT ] sheep were shipped iE there from New Mexico owing to the scarcity 1f pas ture on several of the New Mexico ranges Since that time they have l been there every year.
 At the same meeting a resolution
 was passed asking the farmers t" be
 economical in the use of water from now on It was discussed for some time and the general opinion was that too much water is really being used.

GRAIN FIELDS OF THE BRITISH
 EMPIRE

According to statistics recently
 compiled the wheat acreage under
 cultivation in Great Britain, Canada,
 Australia and New Zealand increased
 from 11,50O,O00 acres in 1901 to 2O,-
 100000 acres in 1911 or more than
 = per cent. To Canada belongs the
 largest share of this increase. In
 1891 the whole area of the Dominion
 was only 2,723.0OO acres, while this
 year it is estimated at 9,S16,0O0 acres, an increase of nearly 260 per cent in
 tWenty-two years. Great Britain and
 Ireland have about 2.O00,OOO acres un-
 der wheat cultivation; Australia's
 wheat acreage is about 7.5O0,O00
 acres, and New Zealand's about 35o, 900 acres. India has nearly 30.000,0O0 acres in wheat, or three-ffths of
 the entire area within the empire.
 The average production of Great . Britain is greater than that of the colonies or India, the yield there be- ing thirty three bushels to the acre This however, is far from sufficing fer the wants of the mother country. T. it worth noting however that the British market is drawing more on the wheat produced within the em- pire and less on that grown in for i eign countries. as the area increases. ! Of the total 192, 900. 900 bushels of ] wheat imported into the United King 1 dem during the year ending last i August 31st. India supplied 40,000,0o0

May Charge Conspiracy

POUGHKEEPSIE August IS. - If Harry K. Thaw has not lett the country he probably will be arrested on warrant charging him with conspiracy and returned to Mattea
 wan. Action with this end in view was taken at the special term Of the supreme court today when Justice Joseph MorsChauser, after listening to several witnesses, issued d warrant for the arrest of Thaw charging conspir- acy with Keeper Howard Barnum and five others in making an escape from Matteawan on Sunday. Conspiracy is an extradita ble Offense. Similar war rants were issued for Richard J. But Ter, Roger Thompson, Michael OK eefe. Eugene Duffy and Thomas Flood. the alleged accomplices. Keeper Bar mum, who guarded and who opened the hospital gate when Thaw made his escape, has been held without bail for examination Thursday.

 Crook, ord and Fry-aH the famous
 Indian fighters of the period. It was
 when he was chief of scouts under
 General Crook that he won fame by
 killing in singe combat the Indian
 chief, Yellow Hand knife against
 tomahaWk
 Tn 1867 he won his title of Buffalo
 Bill. It was then that a gang of 1900
 men were laying the tracks of the
 Kansas Pacific across the plains and
 were famishing for fresh meat. Cody
 volunteered to furnish the meat and
 in eighteen months, with his horse
 Brigham, and his favorite breach
 loader "Lucretia Borgia.' he killed
 428O bison.
 In the '7Os Colonel Cody tried act ing in a melodrama of the west and
 it was the success of this which led to the formation of the wild west" show with which his name has ieen
 linked for thirty years. The big show
 was launched in earnest in 1883. The first performance was given in Madi- son Square Garden. New York city, when Henry Ward Beecher introduced the famous plainsman and scout to the public. On the first presentation of the show in Washington 9 few weeks later. Gen. Philip Sheridan acted as master of ceremonies, riding in the DeadwoOd stage coach Gin which he had travelled to the Black HiIls), accompanied by President Ar thur. The army officers attended, and the speaker of the house found it necessary to adjourn on account of q lack of d quorum.
 When Buffalo Bill first launched his show the experienced men in the busi- ness laughed at him anI said that it was a wild scheme, but in less than six months he was making more money than Barnum. The show toured Europe several times and was as successful there as on this side of the water.
 Just how much Colonel Cody has left of the millions of dollars ne has earned in the show business is prob Iematical. Of late years the profits have not been so large as formerly and it is said also that the famous old scout has lost considerable sums in poor investments. But those who are in the best position to know de-
 clare that the personal fortune of Buffalo Bill is unimpaired by the dis asters that have overtaken the show
 that bears his name. It is generally believed that he is well fixed fitan-
 ciaIly and in no danger of coming to want in his old age
 In talking over his future plans. Buffalo Bill says: 'I expect to spend my remaining years in the west. Every cent that I have made in tie show business I have invested in this section in developing the arid plains that are now fine home lands peo- pied with happy American families
 I was the first to undertake and sue cessfully accomplish results under the Cary arid land act through ifriga
