coaches were derailed and tie engine
turned over on its side when Chesa-
peake and Ohio fast train No. 4, from
Louisville and Cincinnati. ran into a
faulty switch in Highland Park just

BERLIN. April German royalty
is still far from being impoverished.
The present annual income of former
sovereigns of the German states,
while perforce considerably smaller
than that of pre-war days. is still
to be considered muniticent compared
10 the salary OF the President of the
German Reich.
To refute the frequent reproach that
a republic is an especially expensive
form of government and that, conse-
quentlN. taxpayers Jared better dur
inS the days Of the empire, the Ber-
liner Morgenpost has compiled list
of the comparative incomes OF Ger
man sovereiens before and after 1918.
Kaiser Still Well Paid
The former KinS of Prussia had the
highest income by far of all the ruling
potentates of the empire. His fixed
annual salary amounted to $4,000. 600
marks about S4,500.000). In his ca
pacity as German Kaiser he drew
further income of 5000, 600 marks. or
s750.00O. for running expenses. But
the actual expenses OF the imperial
court were betrayed from the Prus-
sion civil list. WhenSVer the say
incs'' of this civil list fell below
900 900 marks the treasury OF the
royal household insisted upon an in
crease of the civil list.

Deep Well Pumping
For Over Irrigated Land

Berkeley, Cal, Nov. 2 (AP)-
Drainage of irrigated lands by
pumping from deep wells is the lat
est method put into use by farmers
of the Pacific coast states in their
fight against alkali or water logged
soil.
Drainage by deep bitches or by TIL
ing had proved to cost $40 to $50 an
acre and had usually necessitated
formation of drainage districts and
issuance of bonds secured by lands
which were already part of bond
carrying irrigation districts.
The deep well pumping system was
originated six years ago, but it has
been adopted in the irrigated regions
of central California until now more
than 400 wells are draining nearly
100000 acres.
The wells are 125 to 200 feet deep
and the water is pumped by electric
driven rotary turbines. Each pump
will maintain the underground water
at any desired sub surface level over
approximately $50 acres. The prin-
cipal point in. favor of the well-and-
pump drainage, is that it delivers to
the surface water available for irri-
cation worth more than the current
needed to run the electric pumps.

of beauty. Such glorious hair and
