THK WAR t'KNSlS
June 5 is war census day in the
1'nlted States.
The press hns been enlisted dur
ing the past month In a rampatKti
that has reached every part ot the
country, in Its effort to educate the
people to the importance of this
move.
The good moral effect of this
move is already apparent.
The men who are entitled to ex
emption will no douht be granted It
by the war department, but those
who are best able to represent the
country in this time of need will he
obliged to carry the burden.
The one Important thing to re
member is that the census applies
to every man within the limit, 21 to
30, and that the mutter of exemp
tions wll be considered later.

Edison. Maxim and Marconi each
are working on appliances that
would without the assistance of the
other two great men, spell the knell
for the u-boats.
Mr. Edison hns said nothing hut
has been working almost night and
day which Is the best reason to be
lieve that his labors wilt result In
an electrical appliance of some sort
that will put the menace to civiliza
tion off the seas.
The inventor of flrenrrus has been
less secretive about his work, and
has announced that his invention
will make the explosion of a tor
pedo powerless.
It will be easily and cheaply ap
plied to any vessel In a few months,
and no douht will be used by our
government.
The inventor of the wireless hag
already put his Invention to work
with the result that a small flock of
submarines are at rest among the
wreckage of their victims in the
Mediterranean, that were afloat and
fighting ten days ago.
No doubt this Invention, whatever
it is, will be in use on the west
coast soon.
A new chapter is to be written
into the history of the world soon,
and these Inventors will be given
prominent mention therein for the
reason that defeat of the allied na
tions was possible with the sea full
of submarines.
Now the crushing of kaiserism is
but a matter of a short time, and is
absolutely assured.
A regiment of men for Immediate
service, in France will be organized
by the Forest Service nndcr the di
rection of the War Department. This
regiment is planned to assist in for
est work in France, and will also
conduct logging and milling opera
tions. Portable mills probably will
be used -as they can be quickly
taken from place to place as need
develops or as supply of logs re
quires. The regiment will be com
prised of foresters, logging engin
eers, experienced woodsmen, loggers
and men of similar experience and
training. This body of men will
form a unit of the Engineers' Corps
of which the railroad workers are a
part.

Before a jolly big audience in a
tent at the corner of N and Mariposa
Streets last night, the Old Virginia
Minstrelmen showed to a more than
well pleased crowd. All through the
show was sprinkled bits of vaudeville
sketches and in connection with the
show proper was a big success. Hi
Henry in a fire-eating sketch captur
ed the applause of the evening, al
though he was given a close race by
the ragtime singers and dancers. The
performers are all negroes, coming
from the land of cotton.
The show was one big long laugh
from start to finish and the minstrel
men in "coon songs" and cakewalks
made a big hit. The women members
of the troupe took part in many of
the dances and carried off several of
the capers of the darkies down South.
The appearance of the show in
Fresno last night was the initial per
formance n this city. The Old Virginia
Minstrelmen travel in two private
cars and under the management of C.
L. Erickson. The company consists
of forty people. Fresno Republican,

One of the ranches ot special In
terest on the Crooked River Basin,
near Roberts, Is the O. A. Hedluud
place. Mr. Hedlund is at present
running a ditch which is six miles
long to conduct water from Crooked
River so that his land can be irri
gated. This ditch crosses under the river
twice using the siphon method. It
took two carloads of wood stave
pipe to do this.
He also has about two thousand
feet of flume, and a mile and a half
of side hill rock work.
The ditch was started last year
and can be completed within thirty
days. It will be In use this year.
It will irrigate about one hundred
and fifty acres at a cost of about
forty dollars per acre. This will
give him an independent system
with plenty of water.
He also has an orchard ot about
two hundred living apple trees, It
is the first large orchard planted in
that section of the country, the
trees having been purchased from
tho Lafollette nursery. They art:
doing well and rank with any high
grade nursery stock.
A pure bred Hereford sire was a
recent addition to his herd. This
was purchased from the S. 8. Stearns
ranch.
