In ef fect it compels the applicant to make a show ing that has heretofore been required at the time of making final proof. The regulation provides that whoever makes a desert land en try must acquire a clear right to the use of sufficient water to irrigate and reclaim the whole of the land entered or as much of it as is susceptible of irrigation. Therefore whoever tenders a desert land application without de finite arrangements for obtaining water, in an ticipation of the construction of extensive irri gation works not determined upon, and where it is not demonstrated that water can be ob eonserved in sufficient quantity and conveyed to the land, does not meet the requirements of the law, and the declaration shall be rejected by the register and receiver, subject to the us ual right of appeal. If applicant proposes to appropriate water for the irrigation of the land claimed by him, he must file with his de claration record evidence of his notice of ap propriation under the applicable State laws. In case he proposes to procure water through jui irrigation district, a corporation, or an as sociation, record evidence of a contract for wa ter must accompany his declaration, or if no contract has been obtained prior to entry some written assurance from responsible officials of such district, corporation or association hav ing either a proposed irrigation scheme, one under construction or one completed that, if i entry be allowed, applicant will be able to pro cure from that source the necessary water to irrigate and reclaim the land described in the declaration. " " HIGH PRICED DAIRY STOCK Dairying promises to be one of the leading industries of ..Lake County in the near future, and at present there is considerable inquiry concerning dairy stock. Prices obtained at pnblic sales are good indication of what is do ing in the livestock industry. A two-days con signment sale of Holstines, held near Syra cuse, New York, the latter part of January, gave the breeders of the blnck-and-whites no reason for misgiving. One hundred seventy five animals, most of them contributed by New York breeders, sold for an average of $270, a total of $48,180. This was a remarkably good record, considering that many of the animals were young. The highest priced animal was King Pontiac Posch, a son of the famous King of the Pon tiaes. He was sold for $-900 to a New York breeder and his former owner immediately re purchased a half intrest in him.A yearling bull Sir Johanna Rag Apple De Kol, was sold to a Wisconsin brooder for $20."0. One cow, Pauline Clyde Yayne, sold for $1000, and a heifer, Fiu derne Countess Pontine, consigned by a New Jersey breeder, brought $140.". A breeder from the state of Washington paid $'.00 for the heifer calf, Doris King of the Pontiaes. MEETING WITH APPROVAL That the candidacy of Henry L. Henson for Supreme Judge is meeting with hearty ap proval over the state generally is evinced by the numerous favorable press reports he is re ceiving. The following is from the Rend Pul let in: Henry L. Renson of Klamath Falls is a candidate whose record justifies his election to the State Supreme Court. His work in the circuit court of Lake and Klamath counties has established him in a position of great es teem, both so far as legal ability and person al popularity is concerned. He is a wise judge, a scholar of parts and a progressive citizen. His selection at the primaries and ultimate election would be a credit to the state. Now that the filing of petitions by the of fice seekers has closed it is shown that the voters will have a large list to select from. Even the most fastidious should be able to se lect a satisfactory candidate from a list of 14 for Governor, while almost as many candidates are seeking other state offices. Here in Lake County there are not so many candidates for local offices and as a consequence the political pot has not shown any signs of becoming un controllable. However, the situation may as sume a different hue after the primaries, for one occasionally hears a rumor of war that is likely to put in an appearance before the Fall election. And now it is proposed to assess all prop erty at its "actual cash value." .The; query natural arises as to who is to fix the actual cash value of property and how is he to arrive at bis conclusions! It is doubtful if any two individuals would value the same piece of projM'rty any where near the same amount. If) not uncommon to find difference of ;") per cerit in the valuation of property in the opin ion of two individuals, and in many cases the iliflterenco is much greater. Assessment and taxation troubles will no doubt continue to the end of time, or until the Socialists rule the country, which possibly may not occur until the aforesaid crack of doom.

To the Editor of the Examiner Will you please explain through your columns why It Is that the re gistration clerks are telling the men and women who wish to register Progressive that if they do their votes will be lost at the Primary election? And as they register Dem ocratic Republican, etc., so must they vote at the Primaries regard less of personal choice In the matter of candidates for nomination. MRS. C. K. DRIVER. 1. Electors registering as Pro gressive will not lose their votes at the Primary election as there will be a Progressive ticket although this may be blank at the Primaries for Lake County officers. 2. At the Primaries electors must cast their ballots for candidates on ticket whose party affiliations cor respond with the voters as register ed, but they also have the privilege of 'riting in any name on the bal lot regardless of party. Klamath Candidates Jleilo C. Groesbeck announced his intention to oppose W. W. Smith, already an aspirant on the Democra tic ticket for the Judges! lp of Klam ath County, says the Northwestern, but following the announcement of Marion Hanks hardware man, Groes- I beck withdrew. Judge J. B. Grlf ' fitli has also withdrawn, leaving ' Hanks and Smith to oppose each ! other at the Democratic primaries, i Will S. Worden, present lncum i bent is said to be the only man out ion the Republican tick'.t, although it is talked tnat others will be in the field for nomination. o Wool lluyei'N Arrive Valentin Walter, representing the New Jersey Worsted Spinning po., of Garfield, N.

He grew up in the business and hence knows the wool industry from beginning to end. He purchases wool entirely upon its merits, never contracting for a,i) on the sheep's bach, unless It Is b rare bargain. Mr. Walter believes that Lake County growers make a great mistake in selling their wool before shearing as- in this way they lose the opportunity of getting a big price for an unusually good clip. Wool, he says, cannot be judged on the sheep's back. Tax .Money Turmnl (hrr County Tax Collector R. A.
