with a resistance, r, and a storage
battery. This is the principle USED
in some methods of dimmiug head
lights. The sum of the currents
through. the two lamps is equal to the
total current or the current in the re
si8tance. The total resistance or this
circuit is equal to the sum of the re-
sistanee of the parallel portion ana
the resistance of the remainder OF tae
circuit. For example, il the resistance
of the two lamps is 4 ohms each and
the resistance of the coil in series
is ohhls the tot al resistance can be
determined as follows:
Since the two lamps have equal re-
sistances, their combined resistance
will be equal to 4, divided by 2. or
ohms. and the tot;s resistance will be
equal to 2 plus 3, or ohms-
If the voltage OF the battery is =
volts the current in. the circuit will be
equal to 6 divided by 5, or IL amperes
The Yalne of the ECrrent in eacn o.
the lamps will be the same. since the
two paths OF the divided circuit nave

over the two lamps in. parallel will
be the same part of the total pressure
as the resistance OF the two lamps IN

ance. The resistance of the two lamps
In parallel is ohms. and the total
resistance is ) ohIns. Hence, the pres

The pressure over the 3-onl1 re-
sistanee will be equal TO 3-5 Of s. CT 80
volts. Or, IL the drop over one part
of the circuit is known the drop over
the OF ser part will be equal to tie
total / ressure minus the drop over
the first part Thus. the drop over thu
two lamps in parallel is "a volts.
Then Il drop over the S-ohm resist.

just as the resistance or series cir
cult may be determined by adding
the resistance of the different parts.
For example, If two resistances of s
and ohms, respectively. are con-
neeted in parallel their resistance may
be determined as follows; The con-
ductance OF the 6-ohm branch will be
equal to I divided by 6, or 16 mho;
and the conductance of the 3-ohm
branch will be equal to divided by
3, or 1-3 mho The total conductance
of the divided circuit will be equal to
the sum of the conductanees of the
two branches, or total conductance
equals 1-6 plus Is, equals SO mho.
Since the conductance of a circuit is
equal to divided by the resistance,
then the above relation may be writ
ten as follows:

Growing Trees From Top Down.

A foreign railway company has
solved the plan of getting good shade
trees in short time, though they may
be small These trees are SO ar
ranged that after two years time they
will give as much shade as trees in
the ordinary way of setting out would
give that are fifteen or twenty years
old The company gets a small elm
tree, preferably digging this, roots
and all, from the ground The Tree
then is set, the top part being set
into the ground and the roots are left
in the air. The tree then grows, forms
roots on which originally was the top
of the tree, and the original roots that
now take the place Of the branches
begin to leaf out and form complete
foliage very quickly. Beautiful speci-
mems of such inverted trees are to be
seen by the fountains in Kensington
gardens, London.

Good roads constructed where the
are needed is a real live issue in
northern Yuma county, and it be-
hooves the democratic administra-
tion of county affairs to fully recog-
nize this fact. For the past five years
this end OF the county has received
scant recognition in the matter of
road construction, and it is high
time that the county Officials should
DC something more tangible and sub
stantial than the passing out of
empty promises. During these five
years northe ern Yuma county has con-
tributed in taxes toward the road
fund something over $4,000, and re-
ceived in return less than $4,000. The
len g7suffering taxpayer can be fooled
sometimes, but not all OF the time.

OPENING OF RESERVATION is A
STATE ISSUE.

That the opening to settlement OF
the surplus lands OF the Colorado
River Indian reservation is a state
wide issue is further evidenced in
the platform upon which George A.
Onley is making his campaign for the
nomination of governor on the demo-
cratic ticket. In his official an
nouncement, as published in last
weeks Post, Mr.. Olney declares him
self in favor of throwing open for set
tlement all Indian lands in the state
which are not needed for the Indians,
and he particularly mentions the Par

just completed it's water lnvesu-

that the department of the interior
could be induced to open at least
large portion of the lands. The in

INFLUENCE OF HOUSE PLANTS
Their Positive Value Extends Not
Only to Those in the Home, But
to the Passerby

The cultivation of house plants has
a refining and quieting influence ON
families where they are grown; they
adorn the house as nothing else can,
and give to the cheapest furniture an
air of elegance which no other crna-
ment can ;mpart. And the influence
of flowers is not confined to the house
or household where they are culti-
waited; they are most graceful form
of charity to the poor passerby who
has no means of gratifying his taste
for the beautiful. To him, blooming
flowers, surrounded by their leaves of
different shapes and shades, even
when only seen at a distance, through
a window. give positive pleasure
which those more accustomed to such
qualifications can scarcely appreciate
1t is impossible to Overestimate the
effect-of youthful association and daily
mpaniOnship with such exquisite
shape and coloring, which foster il. the
minds of children d taste for simple
and natural forms of amusement and
recreation.

Garden Spirit.

remarks on the late Dean Hole who
had achieved an international relju.

true secret of success in gardens:
there must be a very deep real and
penetrating affection for plants or the
fullest success will not be obtained
with them. And this affection must
be clean and honest or the resul viii
still fall short of full measure The

At. the very least northern Yuma
county is entitled to 100000 of the
half million dollar highway bond is
sue. Thus far we have had nothing
but promises, Notwithstanding the
fact that the county has had the ell
tire half million dollars in it's vaults
for the past eighteen months. Dur
ing this time no effort has been made
ty. and The natural conclusion reach
ed by the people of northern Yuma
county is THAT the county officials
arr going to expend practically the
entire bond issue on roads in the
sOn herl part of the county.

A prominent professional man
of Yuma writes us asking what
the county has done with that $2O,
900 road fund. Brother, you live
right near the court house, and we
would advise that you step in and
ask the fellows higher up. We know
that this end OF the county has had
mighty little money for the repair
and upkeep of it's roads, while tax
payers here contribute one-quarter
$4,000, toward the road fund every
year. We get less than 81 900 per
year for the upkeep of all of the
roads of northern Yuma county The
balance goes into the roads of the
south end, We presume.

UP TO PARKER.

The Post desires to pass the tip
to all those who are interested IN
the opening of the surplus lands OF
the reservation that the water investl
cation which has been carried ON by
the state OF Arizona in the Colorado
River Indian reservation for the past
few months, has been completed, and
the engineer in charge, Mr.. A. L..
Harris, has made his complete re-
port upon the same to the state land
commissioner This is as far as the
state land department is authorized
to go in this matter, ,and it is now up
to the people of Parker to present
the matter to Secretary Lane of the
department of the interior. The
state has expended nearly $500 in
determining that there is sufficient
underground water supply for irrlga-
tion purposes within the reservation l.,
and it might be weTI for those inter
ested to get together and determine
upon the next move. Secretary Lane
promised about a year ago that he
would approve the opening of these
lands provided there was sufficient
underground water obtainable for ir-
rigation. The safe has proved that
ing to do about it?.

MIGHT SERVE AS A MODEL
Beautiful Rural Home, Properly Laid
Out and Kept Up, Nearly Ap-
preached the Ideal.

A short time ago the writer rode
past rural home that certainly
should satisfy any earthly being for a
place of residence.
A hundred feet highway frontage
had been reserved in the middle of an
orchard of 20 acres about square The
house stood about one hundred feet
back, the whole plat was inclosed by
neat Wire-mesh fence covered with
roses and various climbers. A few
clumps of shrubs were arranged just
inside the gateway along front and
side fence and about the foundations
OF the house. Very few trees were in
the foreground and these few were
kept out Of the lawn center, bur on
either side of the house yet not close
to the building were fianked quite a
number, thinly planted in front but
more thlckly about rear of house SO
one could not look beyond point op-
posite the rear corner OF the house In
the front was blue grass lawn, fair
ly we'll kept and occasionally moved,
though quite long at the time Of obser
vatiOn. The lawn did not look as
though it had been "barbered" for a
month nor as though it proved prob
lem to keep it up except with great
labor Two or three vines lightly
draped the house, a few flowers were
TO be seen in all parts and in some
spots bright mass spoke of Towering
ANNALS or perennials. All was neat
and clean yet did not look as though
raked and swept every day or even
every week. The whole place harmon
lied with the spirit of nature and
rurality, where every prospect pleases
and not even man is vile. The home
and all surrounding looked SO sufti~
cient, so satifying, SO rural without
suggestion Of the artificialty found in
cities or suburban districts, that it
called vividly TO mind the happy pas
toral scenes of old suggested by Gold
smiths couplet:
"A time there was, ere England's
griefs began,
When every rood Of ground main
tanned it's man"
