 She shook her head. We did They refused to handle us at all They do most of the Consolidated's work, you see. 1 guess that was the reason

Finally at the eleventh hour, when
the reclamation and government en-

there came a man on the scene who

appropriated for Arizona out of the
reclamation fund, and little paid into

entitled to assistance because they

C. K. Clarke. superintendent of the

of Blythe to come to the Imperial val

last Sunday.
Commenting on Mr.. Clarke's de

has been called in to advise with the

same Two breaks are reported, one
at House , and once at House {,
which is near the Mexican line and
not far beolw the intake.
1t was near this point that the
great break in the levee occurred in
1905, when within three days the el.
tire Colorado river left it's channel
and began flowing into Salton Sea,
and for time threatened to inun-
date the entire Imperial valley. The
former break was not stopped for
nearly two years and then at a cost
of about two millions of dollars. 1t
is for the expense OF this first break

This table is given for the average
healthy child that weighed seven
pounds at birth. His average gain
in weight during the first six months
should be six ounces week. Then
he should take on from two and one
half to three ounces week until one
year old; from then his gain should
be five pounds year.
The proportions between the head,
chest and abdomen should be careful
ly noted. When they do not CORE
spond to the table the mother should
not rest until she finds what is wrong.
One can see at what age the head
does not grow. 1t is said that child

The little bed can be made Of a
large sized clothes basket. In the
large stores they can be bought for
30 cents, but country stores invari-
ably charge more for them. One
should also procure a box the size OF
the basket and high enough to raise
the basket as high as bed when
placed upon it. Knock the sides out
of the box and make it strong by an
extra nail here and there, then place
the basket on top and secure with
heavy wire. Ones own judgment
will be sufficient to make it secure.
There should be an interlining of
wadding extending over the top also.
This can be secured by sewing
through the holes in the splints; then

BABYHOOD

Baby's gone wandering,
But not so very far;
He's only off in dreamland,
Where all the fairies are.
He's gone away to dreamland
Upon the by-lo train,
And when his slumber's over
He'll wonder back again.
Baby's gone wandering
(The restless little thing)
To watch the trolls that caper
Before the goblin king.
The Lure o. dreams has won him
And led him on and on
To purple, poppy meadows
And castles of the dawn.
Baby's gone wandering,
But he will find his way
Back again to mother
And all his toys and play.
Baby's gone to dreamland,
But dreams we're ever frail,
And he will break their magic
And strike the homeward trail.
