The decision to have u series of irrigation conferences in Jackson county during the winter is, therefore, nu excellent one. Not only the proper use of water, on different soils, the proper arrangement of. inside ditches, etc., Imt what crops are nest suited to conditions in this valley should ho emphasized. Water will mnloulitcdly place orchard property for the first time on a permanently prosperous basis, but considerable acreage w ithin the district, is not adapted to fruit. What crops therefore, should j be concentrated upon becomes a question of the very first importance. The best men in the state along this line will address the irriga tion conferences. Hut the meetings can only be a success if they ro largely attended, and the best business! and agricultural ability we posses is available for the prompt and proper solution of the problem. Irrigation is today everyone's business. Its success is ns import ant to the business man as tho rancher. The people of the valley Ss a whole should, therefore, unite upon making irrigation a complete success; for only by united and harmonious action, can complete success be attained. THEODORE ROOSEVELT. ConftreH.t has turnotl down tho pica ot China for grub. I'niike Uustsia, China was llot a RJ ruanor ilurius the war. nor a couv.toteat hellraiscr afterwards. Neither have the leaders of China e?er announced their one aim in life W be the destruction of the American form of soveronient. Yet they have the gall to ask for assistance. THREE years ago today Theodore Koosevelt died. Since his death there has been a steady growth in bis prestige and funic. Men. v ho cursed him, alive, have fallen over themselves to deify him, dead. This is natural, no doubt, and strengthens one's belief in the even tnal justice of things, lint a certain over-emphasis of the deification busiuess is to be deplored, for it softens and sentimentalizes the true Uoosevelt into a meaningless and unreal abstraction. The dominant note of Roosevelt was bis vital, robust humanity. He was no frescoed Saint, lie had faults, many of them, but they were- the shadows of his virtues, the faults of a strong, earnest Man Foolish to exaggerate them, but let's not forget them. For they, in a subtle sense, strengthen ones natural respect and admiration by the bonds of genuine affection. . Good Old Teddy!

Every woman owes it to herself and her family to keep hernelf young in &p poarance, and happy.
