That rice can be grown successfully, on a commercial scale, In California and on the Pacific coast has been dem onstrated by the first crop now being harvested near Illverdale, In tho Sac ramento valley. From officials of the Southern Puclflc company, It Is learned that tho 1500 acres planted early this spring are yielding 0000 pounds per acre, or 37500 tons far the district. This crop Is a new one for California, and adds an Important pro duct to the already long agricultural list of the West. The black adobe soil of the valley, under Irrigation, has been found very favorable for the culture of a variety of Japanese rlee known as "Watar bune." The seed Is planted In March. The land Is cut up Into sqwiares sur rounded by dikes. After the young plant' has attained a height, of 12 to 11 Inches, the areas are flooded to a depth of II to C Inches, and kept wet until the growth Is mature, usually the first, week In September, The water Is then drawn off and the ground left to dry for 10 days, so that Ht, may support the threshing ma chines. The rlco Is hulled and polished, when It Ih ready for market. About 71 per cent of tho output is pure rice. Tho balance runs Into by-products, such as cracked bran nnd rlee. Tho stalks are used for slock food. It Is said that tho growers are selling tho pure rlee for two cents a pound f. o. b. Wkks. At Illchvale, tho nichvale Iand company lias built 32 nilles .of ditch, and Is constructing 18 miles more. The company owns 000 acres and Individu als fiOO acres. For the next season al most double the present acreago will be under cultivation. MARLE1 ARROW COLLAR (XUETT PEAB Of JY & CO.

About nine years ago I'nclo Sam became actively Interested In tho pro tecliou of wild birds. This Interest was brought about because of various species of gamo birds, as well as song and insect-eating birds, were de ewiHlng rapidly, while insect pests were Increasing In Immense numbers. I ncle Same has recently estimated that the annual loss to agricultural and horticultural Interests In this country amounts to $120,100,000. The national Association of Audu bon Societies, which was organized for tho protection of wild birds and ani mals, began the campaign a number of years ago to get cnrtaln refuges or retreats, where no hunting or killing beneficial birds was allowed at any season of Iho year. The flint national wild bird reserva tion was set aside March 1, 190:1, by n special proclamation of the president. Since that time n,"i other reservations have been created solely for tho pro tection of wild birds. These embrace rocky Islands, sand beaches, lakes, inarslies and other places that are of no agricultural value, reaching i' ioi ma to Alaska and over to tho llawalln IhIiiihIs. Mnnv of these n,-n the nnecHlrnl breeding places of birds, some of which are alumni ed by plume hunters. "The largest and best national wild bird reservations are on the Pacific const," said Mr. William L. Finloy. state game warden for Oregon, who has, during the past year, succeeded In gelling a large number of smaller game relumes in various parts of his Bluet. "One of our government reser vations IncludoH a vast area of the treeless tundra at the mouth of the Yukon river, in Alaska.

COLLEGE (illUII ATES (ET TO THE FROM' In a chapel speech yesterday morn ing In which he urged the students to complete their college course, Prof. I. T. Matthews, who occupies rtie chair of mathematics at the univer sity, stated that according to recently compiled statistics, although only 2 per cent of the population of the Uni ted Slates finished their college course, out of this number came T.oOO ol tho 1 lump men who hold the emi nent positions of tho nation. He slaetd further that out of everv 40 college graduates, one rises to em- icenee, while only ono out of everv I "OO.OOii rise to eminent positions. Ho thoroughly Impressed upon his audience that although some may slip end slide through college, the men who hold the Important places are, -i'" a general thing, those who have secured a good, thorough college education. CHRISTMAS A XI) THE EXrilESSMAS A little old gentleman bnrryln,; homo on nn evening lato In December paused hesida an express wagon. Tho e.vpress wagon was feeling tho strain of htavy traffic. Us packages not only filled I s roomy hold, but they protrud ed al either end. There were packages even lined along the root hundreds and hundreds of tliein and each a message of love and good cheer. The expressman was gathering U;7 an urmfiil of this freight to run up tho steps of the nearest bouse. It wac late In the evening and he was tired He looked tired. The keen eyes of tho lit t lo old gentleman could not miss that. He sioke: "Christmas," he snorted, "Ou?s? there's not much In It for yon." Tho expressman halted for an Ire slant. "What do you mean?" he nsked. "Christinas," repeated the little old gentleman, pointing (Jils time with his cane to the heavily laden wagon. "J guess there's not much In It for you but hard work." The expressman laughed. "You don't understand, sir," said ho "There Is everything In Christmas for me. I am the Santa Clans of the twen tieth century. There are a hundred thousand of me all tho way across the land and tonight we are bringing Christmas cheer and Christmas sym pathy and Christmas love Into every household In every city nnd town big and little In America. The lldtle- chil dren do not see nie, but the bigger children do nnd they know that In me they have the modern Santa Clans no wlilto whiskers, no reindeer, and as for chimneys they're hardly building them In these days of apartments and Hicamheat and electricity. Why, my dear sir " Hut the little old gentleman was al ready orf. The expressman watched his stout form retreating up tho street gathered up his parcels once again and mounted up tho steps of tho house Ills tired look was gono. In Its place was the joyous determination of a man who has triumphed. Ho was still thinking of what he had told the stranger, as he pressed the door-button of the house. "Why bless me," ho laughed, half aloud, "I am old Santa Clans lust as told him. Perhaps I'm something more perhaps I'm tho verv Kittrit of Christmas Itself." And he went his way buoyed up by the knowledge that ho was perhaps the most Important of all human factors In tho greatest festival that the world has ever known.
