NATHAN 'PRlICE, e AdminIstrator. June 12, 1916.- n-..Jm ITHE CITY FARMERS IN CO-OPERATION OBTAIN WATERWORKS Unique System Installed in Orchard City, Colo. Orchard Clty' lies on a "bench" land or plateau above the Gunnison river valley. The sol is very fertile, and soon after an irrigation system had been installed all the land was taken up and placed under cultivation, writes C. A. Smith, the engineer in charge of constructing the waterworks, in the American City. Owing to the character of the geolog. ical formation underlying the tract it is practically impossible to obtain wn. ter by drilling wells. 'he ranchers therefore had to depend upon the wa ter from the ir: :on ditches for nit purposes. In the winter, when the irrigation ditches were dry, they had to rely upon cisterns and reservoirs ti <f FIPII1NC WIATr 1RIBTE D AlitOUND (11. 0HARD O1IY--Folhry'.

TOWN AND CITY PLANNING CONSIDERED AT CONVENTION Suggestions by Bernard J. Newman of Philadelphia Housing Commission. At the convention of the Pennsylva ria Housing and Town Planning afsso elation held in Reading recently there were -many suggestions in the' aivilress delivered by Bernard J. New in of the Philadelphia housing commission as to why a continuously growing city or even a town whose population counts up to only a few thousands. needs plenty of extra room. Cities de velop along two lines which, for men tal, moral and physical wholesomeness, should be kept separated. The development of a city in Its in dustrial 'phases and features is inti mately connected with its growth in homes or in the residential sections. In arranglng the layout of a city or big town, however, the intermingling of Industrial buildings and residential buildings is to be avoided. That part of a city that stretches along a water front is naturally adapted to factories, commercial warehouses anl such, and there must be spacings for traflic ap proaches, and, in short, th~jayout of such a section should have regard en tirely to its adaptation to commercial and industrial uses. It is the same with regard to those sections of a city that bprder the railroads. Such areas should be planned upon a liberal scale with regard to industrial uses. A territory that is likely to be occu pied by an urban population should be under a city planning organization. It should be bi(d off in advance with a scientitlc regard for both its continuous industrial development and Its contin uous residential expansion. It Is an absurdity, almost a monstrosity, for such an area to be under county gov ernment, representatives of agricultural Interests. And such an area should not develop at haphazard; every de tall of its developlment should be plan.. ned in advtngc, TREES AND PLANNING. They Are Important Elements in Landscape- Gardening. Why is it that in the planning and laylig out of grounds ant unfair ier cent :age of time and money is always devoted to seeds, plants and shrubs, leaving the planting of trees to the last? asks Edward It. Parknson in the New York Evening Post. Is it that the effective ladunting of them reiu ires too mutch skill for- the average person or because he falls to realize how nucih trees cran be mrade to do. for a laud seape, not only in srnimner, but in the bleakness of early spring and the som berness of late autumn? Perhaps a closer knowledge of our native trees aund those which are ours by adoption might disclose new possibilities in color combinatlons of which they avg. capa ble, for no ouc should be alloniti will ingly to miss these protecting and beautiful additions to the landscape without i protest. As to the puirely commrierclial view I olut of a tree's value, which might Iapa motre forcibly pe'ilraps to some1 thnteartistlec side, a strangiier who) was imotorinig by a firind's hottse last nut umni stuoppied to ad(1nire Ite exStranor diryr rnrmbrer rimil honutry of tihe inm I~ re s a (r'4rnd acknowledged hre wvould hatve nio hlearce of iindr trnt1 hre secured at least one. of thIemr.
