men dislike having to take the very first kind color
shown them.
There is no record of Eve going shopping trip,
and yet she must have looked round right smart to
satisfy herself as to color and kind to be used.
And here the records speak, settled upon Green
as the color, and fig as the kind.
Now there could be no war at that time there must
have been plenty OF material such it was, for her
exclusive use with fear that some other woman
would have one like it, in the same town.
NEVERTHELESS, Eve was sparng of materials,
possibly with WOmans intuition, seeming trouble in
the distance. Any way her mode of dress must have
furnished inspiration for newspaper photographers had

FUNNY LOS ANGELES.
(Kingman, Miner.

One of the real funny things about
Los Angeles is it's ability to pull bril-
liant sunshine from the blacklist
night. When it freezes it simply
gives tang to the atmosphere that
reminds the eastern visitor of home
When the winds are so strong that
they blow down houses, uproot trees
and blow automobiles from the road
ways, it is of great benefit in keeping
the frost from nipping the budding
orange. When the sea anamalculae
is washed up against the reputed
beach sand gives off it's phosphores-
cent glow at night and it's ungodly
stencil in the day time, it is old
ocean reminding the visiting native
of Cape Cod of his fishing days when
too many of the finny tribe were
caught and had to be thrown over

UNITY PROJECT

YUMA, Jan. 23.-Phil ID. Swing,
district attorney of Imperial county,
California, who has been in confer
ence with members of the board of
governors of the Yuma Water Users,
on the proposed legislation to unity
the lands watered by the Colorado
river, left last night for Washington
in the interests of The Imperial Irri-
cation district, tC which he is legal
adviser, to push the passage OF a bill
on the subject
The bill that will be brought be-
;cre congress, according to MIR Swing,
Aill utnorize the secretary of the in
terror to form new reclamation pro
jects of the river; to appoint board
to establish damsites for storage OF
flood waters; to construct storage
dams; to fix rates for the repayment
of money expended by the govern
ment in the construction and main
tenance of a general water system
embracing the entire river within
term of not more than so years; to
appoint the cost; and particularly to
provide for a project under which I'm
perial valley and the Yuma project
shall have joint use of Laguna dam,
the cost to be ratably appOrtioned in
accordance with the provisions of the
reclamation law.
An appropriation of $200,000,00O
will be asked for the work outlined
in the bill
"Under existing laws" said Mr.
Swing last night, ''the only law un-
der which Imperial valley could get
water from the Laguan dam is the
Warren law which provides only for
the selling of waste water and was
not designed to meet such cases as the
present. An exclusively waste water
arrangement would not give us the
service needed. If the Imperial peo-
pie get water under the reclamation
law they will be forced to cut down
the size of their holdings to 16O acres
each. The government has always
encouraged settlers to take up land
under the desert land act which al
lows 800 acre holdings and my peo-
pie do not feel that they are called
upon to throw half their land on the
market under forced sale after they
have reclaimed it. The reclamation
law contemplated raw land and re-
claiming it does not fit our case.
."Under the proposed law the gov
ernment will control the river and de-
liver water to the various projects,
each of which will be independent of
the other as far as it's internal af-
fairs are concerned. The storage
dams will assure plenty of water for
all, remove the flood danger, abate
the silt question and enable the gov
ernment to supply water to many
times the number of acres that could
otherwise be served"
Mr.. Swing was in conference yes
terday with Senator MulfOrd Winsor,
Lloyd Schultz and l.. A Wilson of the
board of governors of the Water
Users Association He said that
the officers of the water users were
not opposed to the general provisions
of the bill.
Secretary Lane and the heads of
the reclamation service in Washing
ton are favorably inclined toward the
bill, said Mr.. Swing, and he had high
hopes of success in his endeavor to
secure legislation.
