There is reason to believe that considerable areas will bo irrigated by gravity systems from the rivers and from storage reservoirs built to catch the inter- mjttent streams and flood waterj, taking all things into consideration it will be conceded that ordinarily wells can be had over a larger area and possess such advantages that they must come first in tbe development of agriculture by irrigation on the Thus writes Fred H.

Newell, chief hy- drogrupher, United States geological survey. Ho is authority also for tho following: Irrigation by water from a well, if the latter yields a good supply at moderate depth from the surface, possesses certain advantages over that frcm gravity supply in spite of the usually greater annual cost of procuring the water. The wells and the source of water are, as a rule, under the individual control of the irrigator. It is often possible for the farmer to dig or drill the well himself, aud ho can purchase, sometimes on credit if necessary, the machinery, windmill or pump for bringing tho water to tho surface. Being under his own supervision, he cau apply tlie water whenever in his judgment the plants need it, not being compelled to wait his turn or to take water at inconvenient times, whether day or night, according as it may be allotted under a large irrigating system.

Considering any one locality or farm, tho question whether the water supply can bo obtained is one for determination on the spot. It is often possible for the farmer to judge from the experience of his neighbors whether ho can siuk a well successfully at one point or another. If, however, his place differs widely in general location or in other conditions, so that he cannot safely use the experience of others, then he must either trust to chance and dig his well at a point where it will bo most convenient or, if practicable, consult some geologist or other person who has made a careful scientific study of such matters. In determining upon the location for a well it is generally useless to consult the professional well driller unless he has put down other wells within a. few miles and has considerable local knowledge.

It has been asserted that water from wells is not as valuable for purposes of irrigation as that from rivers, because the latter bring a considerable amount; of silt, which, during irrigation, is carried out on the laud and being deposited serves as a fertilizer. The importance of this effect is often greatly exaggerated. The greater part of the silt brought into a canal is deposited in the main ditches aud laterals, filling these, and necessitating a considerable annual outlay to keep them clean. The amount of material which actually is deposited upon the cultivated laud is ia general insignificant, not being equal to a few loads of ordinary fertilizer. Well waters possess a more decided advantage in their freedom from noxious seeds, and Ladies of Honor.

She Probably Keeps the Largest Outdoor Newsstand In the She Built Up of Her A foreigner, a Russian the largest outdoor newsstand in the great city of York. Her business aud her success did not all come in a day or a year. But she earned it honestly, and no one among her thousands of patrons begrudges it. The secret of her success is an unfailiug courtesy and a naturally dowered lady- hood that command the highest respect. Her name- is Brone P.

Kelson (or Cbaueles, an she was called in Russia), and it is always entertaining to listen to the few reserved words she occasionally lets fall of her life in Moscow. Brouo Nelson is a patriot. She used to live near Tolstoi and see him daily at his work. She loves him, and she understands what the count and the banished Prince Krepotkin are trying to teach the Russian people, that great reforms are not effected in a day and that "they also serve who only stand aud wait." In Moscow as a wife and mother Brone was kept in comparative ease through the exertions of her tradesman husband. But she was broad minded and had studied her country's literature as well as that of others.

She was a Russian Jew, and she felt the oppression of her government. So she, with her husband and two children, though loving Russia, left it and came to this country about eight or nine years ago. They possessed about 3,000 rubles or some But they shared the misfortunes that come to many strangers in a strange land. They had not the ways, they had not the tongue. Brone's husband died nine months after their arrival, and she was left in JTew York to care for herself and the two little boys.

The money was dwindling. She hired herself to do sewing machine work. For two weeks she worked for nothing as a learner, and then she took full rank with tho experi- p. XKI.SOX. enced hands, earning from to per week.

For 1 year and months she pursued this work diligently, and then it slackened. She lost six weeks work. Her rent of a mouth was going on and her children must be kept. She heard through an acquaintance of her husband who had known her in Russia of a newspaper stand that was for sale at One Hundred and Sixteenth street and Eighth avenue. The owner offered to sell the business for Brone had only $85 left in tho bank, but she collected her jewelry, remnants of former luxury, and took in to a pawnshop oil the Bowery.

There they gave her for some diamonds, her watch and chain and other ornaments $100. She- still lucked the money, but cousin of her husband came forward and loaned her SlOO. aud the stand was purchased. ''For myself, sho often says in recalling her start in lifo in this country, "I had no I did not care. Rain, cold and storm I stood out there.

I thought only of the children. Despite a rival who established himself and spent a good deal of money on the opposite corner Broue in eight months was able to pay back the loaji of 8100, and by sheer Spartan courage aud extreme courtesy to customers she soon established a paying business at her stand. Then she took her two brothers into partnership, aud the concern now supports, besides herself and her two boys, her eldest brother, his wife and boy, a younger brother yet unmarried and her nephew, a sister's child. "We don't know," she says in her q-oaintwuy, "to whom the business now belongs. There is a common purse, and we are confident that one will not take a penny more than he absolutely This is the sixth year of the business.

The entire family are engaged in it. There are three tables filled with newspapers and periodicals and a little house under the elevated stairs where the slock is kept. There is also a thriving route served by pushcarts. Taking till into account, the firm count their regular customers at something between 2.000 and 3,000 a day. Their expenses for the privilege of the stand amount to considerable a year, and a fresh permit is taken out each year.

They employ one man's entire rime at fS per week. Three boys deliver in the early morning hours each day for 23 per week They work from 5 :30 to 7 a. m. A young lacy stands at one of the tables from 5 to 11 a. m.

each day for $6 per week. The nephew delivers from 5:30 to 7 a. m. and then makes his way to his work and study at the Bellerue Medical college for the rest of the day. Even the little boys, aged 12 and 10 respectively, run a pushcart on the mornings of their vacation from school.

They attend the Felix Adler school, and it is Mrs. Nelaon'swish that they be educated in a nonsectarian establishment The only orMd she will give them is that of honesty. Mr. Adler accepts her two boys free of tuition fee, but the mother eye is on their work. One boy is backward in arithmetic.

She is paying a tutor to coach him so that he may not be behind his class, and both boys are receiving a musical education. She is just now anxious about her nephew. She tells me be works too hard, and she wishes him to give up his newspaper route and spend those early morning hours in bed before he goes to his medical studies, but the young man is evidently endowed with quite the proper spirit, for he will not hear of it. Brone is still young as well as refined and handsome. There is the essence of a proud and lasting sorrow about her, but such is the strength of her character that this only serves to grace her rnan- r.rr and her attitude.

Not one of those who pour in and out the elevated entrance at One Hundred and Sixteenth street but miss her when she is off duty for a moment. Her anxiety to serve you is rather the hospitable anxiety of the hostess looking after your comfort than the servility of the pushing tradeswom- an. I cannot describe just the way she gives you your paper and your change. You must go buy one for yourself if you are ever in New York, and then you will see. Her touch is not only deft and is graceful, it is exquisite.

"Oh," she will say to me sometimes, "I have no time to learn the language, the literature of this great people, ily life will be wasted, 1 know. But I am hoping some things for my children's future. Maybe yon don't want this paper. Perhaps you are only purchasing to purchase from me?" For this I give her a little lecture and after it we shake hands on the inexorable fact that neither of us can afford to miss business or doubt the motives of our customers. It is no life to stand at this street corner through foul weather and through fair, day in and day out, sometimes from 6 o'clock in the morning until 8 o'clock at night; to meet all kinds of people, the coarse and the refined, the snob and snobess and the keen man and woman' of business.

And, above all, to know by the keenest attention and study just what paper they want, to have it ready with the least possible delay and always with unvarying and marked courtesy. And the result? An income from the newsstand of from $4,000 to $5,000 per year, I should judge. How many American women "to the manner born" are there would dg it or could do it? LILLIAN A. NORTH.

THE N. K. FA1RBANK COMPANY, Ciicsgo, Si. LoLlis, Xew York, Bosiou, Philadelphia, THE NEW WOMAN. Answer to the Question What Good Women's Clubs Have Done.

While it cannot he denied that some clubs seem to exist mainly to show off the bonnets and gowns of the uiemb'ers the list of really useful ones becomes wider with each returning autumn. This year in New York city there was intense activity among the ladies' political organizations, more than there has been at any time before. Each candidate for mayor had clubs of women working euthusia.stically for him. In fact, several women have been regularly employed from some of the party headquarters to go out among the meetings of men and directly address voters themselves. These ladies are very popular aud effective speakers too.

Meantime the record of one club, a noupolitical one, will show the magnificent possibilities for good that lie within the power of organizations of women. That is tho Chicago "Woman's club. Mrs. Ellen M. Henrotin has prepared the brief statement copied below, merely making mention of the club's achievements.

When you are asked what good women's clubs do, just point your questioner to this record. It supplied 50,000 persons with work during the depression that followed tho closing of the World's fair. It introduced the kindergarten system into the Chicago public schools. It established the Children's Aid society, which distributes garments to poor school children. It raised to aid the Kenwood industrial school for boys.

It secured the appointment of a woman physician in the insane asylum at Dunning. It supports the school for boys in the city It inaugurated the movement for raising funds for the woman's dormitory at Chicago university. It raised an endowment fund scholarship for the Art institute. It has organized the following associations: The Protective Agency For Women and Children, the Physiological institute, the Society For Physical Culture and Correct Dress, the Public School Art association and the Chicago Political league. By the way, come ty think of it, where is any club of men that has done as much as this? "Who could fall in love with that!" exclaimed a man on looking at the picture of an American lady who has won a noble place in a profession.

Who wants you to fall in love with her, you conceited idiot? Not the woman herself, certainly. The solid fame and money she has obtained for herself are worth more than the fleeting admiration of a thousand shallow brained jackanapes like vou. Von and your kind will find out that the Almighty made women for something else than merely to be fallen in love with by fools. First and foremost of all, he created her for herself, to develop as an individual her capabilities reference to anybody else. MASONIC.
