be mndo to vitalize all work by con
necting it up with prcHont-dny con

tho plan adopted by the ntnto depart

might keep nbrenst with the travel of

While Ihc work will be prevoen-

The I'boenix segment, at .the Hogue

tem will bo completed about the mid
dle of Fobrunry. KrOin tlsflirar creek
intake above Phoenix the high-lino
cnnnl will extend into n fnrminnd or
chanl turritory of great productive
value, covering nn nrca of 2000
ncres. Tho cnnnl, as it will be com
pleted next month, will be seven mile
in length.
Much of tho .soil covered by thia
brnnch of tho canal company's big
system will jield immense hnrvesti or.
fruits, vegetables and g'ii 'f '"'
gated. The typeq of soil no alluvial,
colloidal and residual, with very little
of the latter. Tho first two types of.
hoil yield generously to evaporation
processes. The transpiration feature
of loss is n lit t lo out of the ordinary
on a part of thnt (CM net because of
the fineness of tho f-oil particles.
They reach the point of maximum
enpillnry snturntion with a less quan
tity of wntPr, but they yield it morn
rapidly in tho form of plant food.
Hence tho orops in that type of soil
will need to bo irrigated ftcner, but
not so much nt n tone.
JltmtK,r Vlelds Possible
There nre ow sections, if nny, in
the entiro vnlley wheie irrigation is
more urgently neoded to iusurc btiO
per yields; but n bumper yield in thnt
district menus something, for those
soils hnve n capacity for immense
production.
The orchards of that district will
more than double their yields under
n careful system of irrigation. With
water nt convenient command, it will
be possible to produce profitable
outer crops. Flowed under in tli$
spring, they will ndd nmainglo to the
vital productive strength of the trees.
It is bolioved thnt every progres
sio fanner in thnt territory will take
adwmtugc iff this nppnitiinity to bring
his farm nnd orchard lands up to
their full productive capacity by the
uso of water.
IIIrIi I.lno Oinal
To extend and complete' tho high

E STRICT
SUNDAY LAW FOR
Tnylor O. Hunch, one of the field
secretaries of tho Heligious Liberty
nsviocintlon, spoke to n large nudiencc
in tho Star thontcr Inst night on the
olWls of Sundny legislation, fr.
Hunch said in part:
"The onnctment nnd enforcement
of Sunday lows nrc dnugerous bc
canse of what It will finnlly lend to.
It is the' first step toward n union
of church nnd state, nnd history tes
tifies that such n union hns nlwnys
been disnstrous to both the church
nnd the state. Hisjtrj repeats it
self, nnd like onuses bring like re
sults. When our forefathers founded
this government the snd history of
religious legislation in Home .'d dur
ing colonial days in this country
warned them to plnco in tho consti
tution a safeguard against religious
tyranny.''
"The 'One Dny's Itest in Seven'
longuc, of which Dr. Tufts is super
intendent, is working for u. more
strict Sunday law for Oregon. Al
most tin' snme law wns defented last
year in California by n majority vito
of over 107,000. The poor laboring
man that must be compelled to rest
one day would appreciate it more if
this league would trv to secure at U
least one dn.v s work in sccu.0
"Madison said: 'Kteninl vigilance
is the price of liberty.' We must be
on our guard if our liberties nrc
maintained."
