Los Angeles, Calf. Feb. 17.-Silas
ChristoffersOn, of san Francisco, ar
rived today in a biplane from Bakers
field, having flown over the Tehaehepi
and Coast range mountains, which had
resisted all previous attempts of avia-
tors. In crossing the Sierras, Chris
Jefferson at times went as high as
1000 feet, nearly 1000 feet above the
highest peaks. He made the 10 miles
in three hours and 45 minutes
ChristOffersOn started last Monday
to fly from San Francisco to San
Diego, intending to complete the trip
that day. In attempting to pass over
the Tehachepi mountains he was driven
back by high winds. Returning to
Bakersfield, tChristOfferson equipped
his bipIane with a more powerful
motor and yesterday again endeavored
to fly over the mountains but the
winds were too much for him. He
took a different route today and made
the flight without trouble.

For some time experts have recog
nized that the so-called arid country
In the Rocky mountain region must
some day be made to yield vast
amount of agricultural products, but
they also have realized that this
could not be accomplished except by
irrigation.

the water supply is said to be ample

assure the farmer of continual sup
ply during the growing season. This
Is being accomplished gradually.
Colorado excels all other states in
the amount of land under irrigation.

1t is of course inevitable in the
case of all undeyeloped lands into
which capital and immigration are
coming and whose advantages are
largely potential and "in the raw"
but not the less rich, profuse and
certain. We mean the shallow vision
and unthinking criticism of so many
who come to South Florida to look
for opportunities and because they
don't see a matured development
rich in things pleasing to the eye
and the ripeness and fitness of a
well settled land whose promise had
been already realized, they promptly
denounce the country and take their
departure to lie about us forever
more. If South Florida were the
land they had pictured before they
came-fair and pretty and pleasing
and populous-it would be no land
of opportunity for them for it woulu
be no longer new and raw and prfm-
tive and its advantages and re-
sources would be in other hands
wise enough to keep them.
