Nearly a mil lion acres of land, an empire of opportunity for the farmer, the fruit grower, and tho cattle raiser, Is being reclaimed by irrigation along tho lines of tho Southern Pacific railroad In tho West and Southwest. In tho neighborhood of Yuma on partly in Arizona and partly in Cali fornia, will bo served by the canals tho Colorado River, 100,000 acres on which rapid progress Is being made. Profitable cultivation of this soil has heretofore been impossible owing to the destructive floods of tho Gila Itlver. Now thl3 section Is be ing mado ready for tho settler by a clam across the Colorado above Yuma by canal3 under the Gila and a sys tem of levees which will protect the territory from overflow. In this semi-tropic climate and soil, orangc3, lemons, dates nnd grapes lead tho products of a soil which will produco almost anything. In the same neighborhood the lands saved from destruction by tho South ern Pacific's success In closing the breach in tho Colorado are yielding phenomenal crops. Yuma has about 2,000 residents, with school3,church es, hotels, and is the centro of trade of a large area. Tho Southern Paci fic railway runs through tho town and all of tho newly Irrigated area Is in direct touch with this main transcontinental avenue of trafllc. With Phoenix as a centre, anoth er vast Irrigation work, covering 200,000 acres Is being carried out. Hero also 13 the climate of orange3 and other fruits of many kinds, all served by tho lines ot Santa Fe from J tho north and Southern Pacific on 'the south. To this territory, tho Government is simply supplying a , larger and more regular water supply ' than existed before, and tho far- sjghted settlers who are taking up and Goldfleld. Cereals, alfalfa, vege organized and highly developed com munity. On tho Truckee-Carson project in Nevada, tho Government is spending 19,000,000 on tho reclamation of 350,000 acres. This is on the Ogden route of tho Southern Pacific, from which a branch lino between Hazen and Fallon has been built diagonnal ly across tho nowly irrigated area. The principal markets of this region are the mining towns of Tonopah councillors are now under arrest, tables and many fruits are success fully raised hero on tho lands that formerly wero tho bed of a prehis toric lake. Further north, on the border line between California and Orogon, is tho Klamath project, through which tho Southern Pacific is building tho line which will eventually run from Weed, California, to Natron, Oregon, and become the main lino of the road In this territory in place of the pres ent Shasta route. Nearly 250,000 acres of a fertile soil will be affected by tho irrigation work now well un der way hero. Settlers upon theso irrigation lands havo what amounts to a Gov ernment guarantee of the quality of tho soil and tho permanenco of an adequate water supply. The prox imity of the railroad Is a further guarantee that markets can be reach ed and supplies obtained. MRS. YOAKAM'S ADDRESS When T "(peak of Coos county as a dairy country I feel that I am re ferring to tho best country for that business In tlio stato, and of course thero is only one stato in tho Union. Next to Coos county comes Tilla mook. She leads us now in amount of dairy products but Tillamook is not better for dairying than Coos and I expect that wo will before very long lead in production as well as in natural advantages. Tho climatic advantages of Coos county aro such that it is an ideal J place for dairy cows, n m uui uu- f J KVIUi WAm V. vV 1 mmtvxw I -rf I y U k I I NASTM i i . 1 1 ir--rs4 TtrwKvw? v3" .v.:r A rWMM t4Jm Ik Jm-o-qMi o ?mmM&$ Fl I !

The rest of tho year tho fine pastures keep tho cow3 in first class condition. As deputy food and milk Inspector I have been making a tour of tho county. I havo visited about one fourth of tho dairy farms and I e3 tlmato that there are about 250 dairies In tho county. Some that I havo visited were not in very good condition as to cleanliness but others I found in fine shape and all wore willing to make Improvements I sug gested. I havo as deputy Inspector Insisted upon the cows being kept In clean places and tho milk handled in a sanitary way. Thero Is big profit in the dairy business In Coos county. A dairy is a regular gold mine for anyone who uses business judgment. It Is a splendid vocation for a woman. On my place I scarcely over havo a man to do any work, all the duties being performed by myself and my daught ers. I believe that a womaii is more successful in handling cows than a man. Most of tho dairy ranches In C003 county aro located on one of. the rivers tributary to tho bay. The milk Is easily transported to the cream eries and condensed milk factory on gasoline launches which make regu lar daily trips. Tho boats can al ways run whether tho roads are bad or not. Tho dairymen are receiving good prices for their product. At the creameries 33 cents a pound is paid for butter fat and at tho con densed milk factory $1.25 for the milk i-3 paid. Many of tho dairymen who sell to the creameries uso separators on their farms and send only tho cream, keeping the skimmed milk for feed ing. Improvements along all lines aro being mado by the Coos county dairymen. Better stock is being in troduced and better management of tho ranches Is noticeable. The re sult is that the profits aro better than with the dairymen who go along in tho old fashioned way. On of the most important Im provements that havo been made is the introduction of the milking ma chine, and I have been asked to speak particularly on that subject. I havo used the B. L. K. milking machlno for one season. When asked If I was pleased with tho machine I havo answered that I could not do without it. If our machines wero destroyed by fire tomorrow I would Immediately Install another outfit. I honestly believe that tho cow milking question Is now solved In a practical way and It will only be a matter of time when all dairy farms where twenty or moro cows aro milk ed will bo using the machines. The Burrell-Lawrence-Konnedy machine Is very simple. Anyone can operate this machine although they may never havo milked a cow. Each machine milks two cows at a time and one man can operate three ma chines. My cows took to tho machine kindly from tho start and there is nothing about the machine to injure the cow in any way. Another point in tho favor of the machines is that we always get clean milk which can never bo certain when the milking is dono by hand. It does not take much time to caro for tho machines. One man can wash and put away three machines in twenty minutes. grfe "W y y3 mt MjJzdwwi il-KlAlW r The machines milk clean and strip the cows better than can do cone by hand. There is nothing about tho machine to wear out except tho in termittent springs and rubber mouth pieces which are very cheap. J Dairying has become a pleasure now that one can watch the B. L. K. machine do tho milking and know that It is being dono right. Besides you do not havo to glvo tho machine an order every Saturday night and they do not get tired and quit when they have a little money ahead. A machine never treats you as though It did not care whether It did any milking or not but it just keeps right on working when you want it to work and does it the way you want It done. I am anxious to see the women take moro interest in the dairying business. They' should oversee the washing of the separator, the milk ing machines and tho buckets and see that tho barns aro kept clean. A man does not know how to scrub and clean like a woman does. Tho farmer's wife Is the ono wlio can best superintend such work. In 22 dairies that I visited in one month the separators wero in tho barns and as dirty as could be. I do not "Cc how they could uso them. I asked some of tho women why they did not look after these things but they said they aid not want to go in to the dirty places. I suggested that It would be pleasant work If they kept their barns as clean as they should be. The milk must be kept clean and sweet and the cleanliness must begin at tho dairy. As soon as the cown aro in tho barn the dairyman should see that tho buckets, cans and strain ers are perfectly clean, brush tho cow's udder, use a Burrell-Lawrence-Kennedy milking machine and the work will become a pleasure. Now I love to think of the early days When I tho porkers fed And prepared tho breakfast. While the sky was yet red I fed tho calves Sawed tho wood and milked the cows. But now I watch tho engine and The Burrell-Lawrence-Kennedy milking machine And know that I do not havo to do it now. MYKTLE HANK.

WIDE SPACING SAVES MONEY FOR SOMEBODY Plunk Streets Built This Seuson Show Saving in Lumber of Nearly $500. A walk about tho city of Marshfleld will show any interested party tho great saving which tho city, or Mas ters & McLaln mado wtln tho plank streets wero built this sumner. Tako for Instance, tho extonsiot Califor nia avenuo west to Burnet. This planking starts from Broadway and at first tho planks aro laid particular ly closo together but as you walk westward, they become strangers, as it wero, and many of them are nearly an inch and a half apart. This rule holds good for tho entire length of tho two blocks. Tako tho new plank streot which now adorns E street, and you And the samo conditions. The planks aro laid all the way from half an Inch to an inch and a half apart. This rulo holds good on all tho now plank streets built by tho city this year.
