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

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
