AN IFR'GATiCN PRECEDENT.

President Roosevelt's-cordlal indorse-
ment of the policy of providing irriga-
tion for the arid regions or the coun-
try, Avherever -such irrigation can be
economically maintained, has hud the
effect of bringing the issue into the
domain of practical politics. It has
been undor diseusfcion a long time, and
several tentative measures have been
enacted toy Congress for dealing with
It. The prospects ana tbiit i* may now
snon be taken up in a cOiiiprtd'ensive
way and "S. scknitifi^ plau d vised for
redeeming millions of barren or :^vmi-
barren acre3. If any precedent were
needed to demonstrate anew the value
of irrigation carried out or. a large
scale it would be found in what lias
been accomplished by the British in
Egypt. In a recent report on the sub-

life cycle of the moth being complete,
both sexes soon die.—Detroit Free

LIFE OF THE SILKWORM.

The silkworm ie the larvae of ..the
mulberry-feeding moth, an inconspic-
uous moth of ashy white wings. Th6
.male is not half an inch long, and the
female is little longer and stouter. The
silkworm is hairless, of an ashen gray
or cream color, grows to a length of
three to three.and a half inches and is
-slender. Its ^natura! .ford is the leaves
*cf the mulberry tree. The silk glande
or vessels consist of two long sacs
running along the sides of the body.
When the larva is fully matured and
ready to change to the pupa condition,
it proceeds to spin its cocoon, in which
'operation it ejects from both glands

about 4,000 yards long, moving its
head around in regular order for three
•days or thereabouts, wrapping itself

s an enormous outlay for a country so
poor as Egypt, but the results prove
it to have been one of the most suc-
cessful achievements of British rule. It
has lrad the effect -of doubling the
cotton crop and adding upward of $25,-
000,000 annually .to the income of the
people. Baaing conclusions upon the
results thus obtained by improved ir-
rigation facilities in lower Egypt, the
British are sanguine that nn even larg-
er proportional benefit will be derived

the upper Nile. It is proposed to dam
one of the lakes which form the sourc-
es of the Nile, and so crcate a huge
reservoir to draw upon at need. Sii
William Garstin, who has -charge of
the engineering problems involved in
the scheme, states :rn a recent report
that series of dams ar.il canals can be
so constructed that the completed work
will not only provide irrigation for
millions of arid a/u'es, 'bet 'will also

xio way is ho ever servile, as ie tha
Franco-Swiss. On the contrary, his
fault is to verge on the other extreme
of familiar confidence, to reply to any
-criticism with badinage, and to treat
the poor in heart with a magnificent
and patronizing condescension. Every
popular f^iophouse waiter cherishes
one dream—to open a place of his own,
where he may amass the undoubted
profits that are to be had in this busi-
ness. A very prosperous chophouse
proprietor in town and many of the
fashionable hotel proprietors and man-
ngers were graduated from the ranks

Starved himself with the idea that he

the public is the belief that a horse
