twenty-first International Irrigation

city early next month for a session
of four days. 1t will be the first time

of several European irrigation ex-
perts who had been invited to address
the gathering.

of pampas grass, having it analyzed
by DR.. Harvey Wiley, who reported
it to be more nutritious for cattle
than alfalfa or clover and second only
to eastern timothy. Her reason for
having that analysis made was SIM

owned developed a great fondness for
the grass and she wanted to know if
it was good for them.

CENTENARY AT PLArTssuRe

Plattsburg, N. Y, Sept 11.-Inter-
esting exercises were held here today
to mark the centenary of the battle
of Plattsburg, the famous victory won
over the British in the war of 1912 by
Commodore MacDonough in command
of the United States naval forces on
Lake Champlain.
1t was 100 years ago today, in a
bitter battle fought in Plattsburg har-
Dor, that MacDonough, with a fleet
of IA vessels, carrying Sc guns and
SEQ men, decisively defeated the Brit
ish fleet of 16 vessels, carrying 96
guns and about 1000 men. This vic
tory checked and turned back the
Rritish invasion of New York by land
or by sea. for while MacDonough was
defeating the British fleet force of
vermont militia ana few regulars,
under General Macomb, defeated the
British land forces under Sir George
Provost. In the naval battle the
British lost their commander, Cap
tain George Downie, and number of
other officers, all of whom lie buried
in the little cemetery here.
1t was the original intention to COM
bine todays centennial observance
with a celebration of one hundred
years of peace among English speak
ing people, but this portion of the
program was largely interfered with
by the inability of the scheduled Ca
madam public men and others to take
part on account of the present war
activity. The celebration consisted
of historical exercises and the decor
alton of the graves of the dead.
Among those who shared in the
ceremonies were official representa-
tives of the states of Delaware, Con-
.necticut and Vermont. Commodore
Marlborough, the hero of the naval
enga gament, was born in Delaware
and lies buried at Middletown, Conn,
and it was in Vermont that he built
his squadron.

Los Angeles, Sept. I0.-That social

ranch near Whittier. Mrs. Strong is
one of the best informed, scientific
agriculturists in California. She be-
lieVes in fads. enjoys them and knows
how to make money out of them.
A few years ago Mrs. Strong be-
came interested in pampas grass-the
grass on which South American cat
tie feed and fatten. She thought it
might be grown in southern Californ-
ia She tried it and found she was
right. Then she bordered the drive
way between her home and the road
with pampas grass and pomegranate
trees. The grass grew tall-taller
than the trees. 1t plumed amazingly
until one days Mrs. Strong discovered
that Berlin was paying $1,OOO,O0O for
pampas grass plumes to be used as
decorations, and London about half
as much.
This led her to believe there might
be market for the plumes nearer
home. There was, and it paid her
$1,000 in two years.
A year ago last month Mrs. Strong
bought 1850 spinless cacti, largely as
an experiment, and set them out on
the ranch. The plants cost her $500
and were bought from the Ocean Villa
