full use of the supply can be obtained
only by pumping. In the areas in
which the depth to the water table is
less than so feet there is enough good
soil TO utilize all the groundwater
supply.
Developments believed to be prac-
ticable at present are a. the sinking
of flowing wells Of moderate depth In
the restricted areas where fairly CO.
pious flows can be obtained and the
soil is not irreclaimably alkaline, and
(2) the sinking of non-flowing wells
and the installation of pumping plants
for raising high-priced crops or for
raising ordinary crops in localities
where the conditions are exception
ally favorable or where the well water
can be used to supplement surface
water supplies. The raising of high
priced crops is practicable to only a
small extent, but it is believed that
vegetables and small fruits could be
profitably grown in the vicinity of
Millers to supply Tonopah, Goldfeld
and other local markets The prin-
/ cipal favorable conditions that are ne
cessary in order to make pumping
/ profitable for raising ordinary crops
are soil that is not injuriously aka

beds at moderate depths that will
yield freely.

GREAT WAR PLANE
 BUILT IN CANADA
Machines Wings Have Spread of 1O2 Feet and Attains Speed of
 100 Miles an Hour.

TORONTO, Sept. --.-The Curtiss Aeroplane company recently complet- ed the first of fleet of giant aero planes being built in Toronto for the British government. The aeroplane is larger than any ever before built, and is fitted with number of new devices. It carries the latest devel- opments of control and is said to be so arranged that absolute accuracy of bombardment is obtained.
 The new machine has been named "The Canada" and is equipped with two 16O Curtiss Standard motors, and during a trial test attained speed of one hundred miles an hour. The Canada is built along the lines of the America, which was built to make the trip across the Atlantic, but is much larger than the America. It's wings have a spread of 1O2 feet and it carries heavy calibre rapid fire gun and a large quantity of ammu- milton. =
 The aeroplanes are built at cost of $40,0OO each and will be shipped to Europe as fast as the machines can be turned out at the great Cur tiss factory near Toronto.

PAPERS BOOSTING
 FOR ALASKAN EXPOSITION

The New York Sun, of August 12, contains the following articles re- garding the Alaska 1917 Exposition:
 After the San Francisco Panama Pacific Exposition, the Alaska Expo sition. And more than that, it is to be an All-Alaska Exposition. Prop erly speaking, it is to be chain of celebrations in of the cities in the territory, the idea being that the tour ist will be put on a sort of exposition circuit and shown all of the wonders and resources of the country in suc- cession.
 Juneau, Skagway, Wrangell, Fair banks and Ketchiken are all working in partnership, and without the slightest jealousy ito evolve such plan, according to ad- vices. from Seattle, which, as the principal handler of the tourist stream to the Northwest country is pushing the idea along for all it is worth through the Chamber of Com merce.
 Already the year 1917 has been se- lected for the event as 1t will be the fiftieth anniversary year of the acquisition of Alaska as a territory by the United States. The exact date will be some time in early summer, still to be determined. As no preten- tious Towers of Jewels or exposition palaces are to be constructed the date is of no special importance. The Alaskans will let their mountains and forests present their wonders for themselves.
 In fact this celebration is being conceived as more than a show. Els pecial effort is to be made to attract visitors who may settle in the fertile valleys and share in the development of a country that is destined to make many of its citizens wealthy. There is to be an earnest effort to awaken he people of the States to the fact thst Alaska is not half frozen lana with gold as it's only attraction. And in so far as this mi-centennial cele- bration may accomplish useful pur- pose it will be worth while than the ephemeral White Cities, whose uses and populations vanish in a night.

LOAN 10 ALLIES

Wall Street Hears that Commissions CTS Must Be Satisfied with Less
 Than Half a Billion.

NEW YORK, Sept. s. A rumor is current on Wall street that many of the heaviest subscribers to the huge loan which the British and French governments are attempting to place with American bankers, have withdrawn their names from the list of subscribers and that if the loan is made it will not reach the half bil- lion mark.
 It is reported that the commission CTS are dissatisfied with the progress being made by Morgan & Co.,, in plac- ing the bonds of the British and French governments and may request the bank to employ the services of the New York syndicate which offer ed to underwrite the loan for one half of one per cent.
