Every rancher in the\nvalley who has a well on his place will know\nwhether this elevation is above or below his\nland.    Personally we believe   that at least\nthree units of the proposed irrigation system\ncould be supplied with water from this source.\nThis would make the enterprise an up-to-date\nand permauent improvement, aud the farmers\nwould have something besides worn-out machinery after they get through paying for it.\nThe system is going to cost enough no matter\nin what manner it is constructed, and why it\nshould not be built so as to entail the least\npossible expense for upkeep, and to make it\nan improvement that will endure for all time\nto come,  passes our comprehension.     The\nsmelter dam and the land it floods could prob\nbably be purchased for one-half of what a pre\nliminary survey would cost.  Even if the dam\nhad to be raise a few feet higher and a litrle\nmore land  flooded it would be worth the\nprice in order to get a gravity system for as\nlarge an area of the valley as possible.    All\nirrigations projects are gravity systems where\never it is possible to install them. As long as\nthe dam remains the property of the Granby\ncompany there is always the danger of the\nland  being drained  and disposed of to the\nDoukhobors.\nWhen President Obregon suspended a number of oil concessions made by tho administrations of Carranza.and De la Huerta, because they conflicted with concessions made\naccording to law by earlier governments of\nMexico, he showed a dispos tion to be abso\nlutely fair to the foreign interests that have\nbuilt up the oil industry in Mexico. It also\nappears that he is inclined to interpret that\ntroublesome Article 27 of the Mexican constitution so as to deprive it of retroactive force.\nThat will remove the chief source of misun-\ndejstanding between the Mexican government\nand the British and American companies that\nare established in Mexico.

It does not in\nany way affect the ownership or the direct\nmanagement of the factories. It does aim at\ngiving the workers a better chance to inform\nthemselves concerning the conduct and the\nprofits of the business, at offering them opportunities to improve their social and economic status and to get some useful technical\ninstruction. \"Control,\" as Signor Giolitti puts\nit, means checking up the facts, in order  to\nThe supply of electrical energy   to   the\nsmaller villages and to farmers has recently\nbeen commanding special study.   Such questions as adequate charges and other details\nrelating to the construction and upkeep of the\nspecial transmission lines necessary, have been\ngiven closer study with very satisfactory results.   In most cases it has been found that\nto supply only one or two consumers, relatively long lines and individual transformers\nare required. In urban centres, these are made\nto  supply hundreds of householders.   This\ndifficulty has been overcome in various ways,\nsucb as the farmer paying for the portion of\nline used for himself alone only, or paying a\nspecial fixed charge covering the cost of same.\nWhere waterpowers are abundant, rapid progress along the above lines is to be noted, but\nextensions could also be provided on systems\nsupplied from large steam power plants.   The\ngreater portion of the prosperons farming com\nmunities of the prairie provinces requires to\nbe supplied with electric energy derived from\nlarge steam power plants, and rural  lines\nthere would prove a great boon, both for convenience and increased production.   The experience of a steam plant in England may be\ncited in this connection.   The plant hm\\ never\nbeen   successful until its activities were ex\nqended to rural distribution.   This greatly in\ncreased its output, the plant was placed on a\nsound basis, and its lines now cover a radius\nof from twelve to fifteen miiesinall directions.\nThe load is reported to be steadily increasing\nfor lighting, appliances and small motors for\nfarm use. It is interesting to note that under\nsomewhat unfavorable circumstances electrical service has been extended to cover a large\nfarming community and that the enterprise\nhas succeeded.\nDB.

The Dolomites are\nthose marvels of stone which tower\nskyward flooded with light and color\nand glorified by the poetry of\nstrange and most ancient legends.\nThe Dolomites give the Italian\nAlps an advantage over those of\nSwitzerland, because very tall peaks,\nwhite glistening masses of st w and\nglaciers with azure blue crevices are\nseen everywhere. The Dolomites,\nhowever, are found only and ex\nclusively within the new boundaries\nof Italy. To the experienced alpinist\nthis name is the richest for view3\nand reminiscences.\nThe two centres of tourism in the\nDolomites are Bolzano and Cortina\nd'Ampezzo, the one a city of 25,000\ninhabitants, renowned for its excellent hotels,' chief town of a large\ndistrict, the upper Adige, which\nforms a part of Tridentine Venetia\nand can be reached by through-train\nfrom Rome in eighteen hours. The\nother a charming Alpine borough,\nsituated 1219 meters above sea level,\nin the midst of a splendid Dolomitic\namphitheatre. Bolzano and Cortina\nare connected by the so-called\n\"Trans Dolomitica, a highway for\nautomobiles, 112 kilometers long.\nThis highway is the main artery of\ntourism in the Dolomites. But there\nis a very important branch which\nruns from Ora, by way of Predezzo\nand the Val di Fassa and rejoins the\nmore frequented upper artery. As\nIt touches the most hidden and remarkable parts of the Dolomites.\nthis great highway\u2014comparable to\nthe smiling Ligurian Riviera or the\nSorrento-Amalfi, but grander than\n* these two \u2014 is a marvellous work\nof our civilization. Above ravines\nand water-falls, over bridges and\nthrough tunnels, now through gloomy\nmountain defiles, now through sunny\nr>astures, covered with russet rhododendrons, opening to the traveller infinite horizons towards the South as\nUr as the Alpine foothills nf the\nPadua!*, el***.'\"! anrl towards the NoTth,\nas far as tbe glaciers of the great\nwatershed \u2014 bow suspended over\nrocky falls, now crossing the debris\nof mountain slides, through shady\nwoods and lovely little valleys\u2014the\nTrans-Dolomitica winds along safe\nand broad, as if it were an integral\npart of the landscape.\nOf course the war, which for two\nyears and a half raged in the Dolomites, won for Italy by the Italian\n\"Alpini,\" has caused great damage\nBut, already in the summer of 1920\nall the hotels were re-opened and al!\ncommunications were in perfect order. The State Railways, in agreement with an automobile transport\ncompany provided, in 1919, for a\nnew, accurate and convenient service\nof elegant automobiles on all the\nlines of the Dolomites. This year,\n1921, the hotels and transport service will be perfected so as to place\nat the disposal of travellers the very\nbest modern accommodations.\nArrived in Bolzano, we betake\nourselves to the \"Strassermauer,''\na large wall for the protection\nagainst the torrent Talfer, and above\nis  the ploin  rich  in vineyards  and\nDolomites, an important alpine station. Beyond Canazei the road begins to ascend towards the mountain\npass of the Pordoi. When we havo\nreached the Pordoi Pass which, with\nan altitude of 2250 metres above\nthe sea, is the highest pass in too\nDolomites fit for vehicles, we see in\nthe East the mountains of Badia,\nLivinallongo and Ampezzo, with an\nendless chain of peaks and spirelika\nrocks. We are now close upon the\nzone devastated by the War. And in\nthe centre of this zone, belonging exclusively to history, there rises \u2022\nglorious monument to the Italian\nArmy, the dark Ridge of I.ana,\n\"drenched with bljod, the scene of\ngreat bravery, lacerated in its innermost bowels, pierced by tunnels\nand covered with a network of vegetation.\" The almost level road continues up a steep declivity, passing\nthrough Pieve of Livinnllongo,\nSalesei and Andraz. All round we\nsee towering dolomltic peaks, black\nvolcanoes, glistening glaciers and,\nthrough a gigantic cleft, we look\ndown Into the very deep Valley Ah\ntto'MUreoTa^wUb'diTni7^dirJlaKlw>   , A\"<?   *\u00ab*>   towards   the\nSouth, thc Civetta, the Queen of this\nentire   panorama,   rises   before    us\nTowards the Kast we see the jagged\nchain of the Dolomites, in the morning azure colored, at noon whitish-\nyellow like ivory and in the evening inclining to purple, almost as if\nits peaks were on fire. The group\nvisible from this side of Bolzano is\ncalled \"Rosengartin\" or, disparagingly \"Catinaccio\" (large basin).\nBehind this extends the Valley of\nFassa.\nTwenty-eight kilometers from Bolzano we come to Hotel Knrersee, B\nfirst class alpine station, map:\nnificently situated in the midst of\nthe colossal Dolomites of the Rosen\ngarten and the Latemar. In the\nwest glisten the snows of the Ortlcr,\n3902 meters high. In the neighbor\nhood is a very beautiful lake, celebrated for thc splendid color of its\nwater.\nTho volcanoes of Fiemmo, Fassa\nand Livuialfbngo were active in the\nTriossic period, then became extinct, closed their craters and collapsed. But even to-day, in the\nmidst of the white dolomia, traces of\nthem are seen.\nLet us descend to the bottom of\nthe Valley of Fassa, a territory\nwhich keeps pure the spoken Latin\nLadlna, all surrounded by huge\ndolomltic, tower-like ro?ks.\nWe cross the level of Gne=. above\nwhich, the Vernel rises skyward with\nan Incomparable gesture, and arrive\nat Canazei,  the Chnniojnix  of  the\n3220' meters high, one of the most\nsuperb of the Dolomites, crowned\nwith sharp crests and embattled\ntowers. Gilbert nnd Churchill describe it thus:\nWe advance into tho Valley of\nAndraz and pass through the Loccia,\nsuddenly arrive at the third opening\nwhich separates Bolzano from Cortina d'Ampezzo, the pass of Fal-\nznrcgo with an altitude of 2107\nmeters. Here is a view of the vast\nbattle fields, whipped and furrowed\nby millions of shells.-Everywhere\nare dugouts, a very intricate network of passages and enormous\nmine craters which disfigure the profiles and change the appearance of\nthings. Here is the Oastelletto onco\na summit now a bean of stones, because it was blown up by a handful\nof Italian soldier;: with thirty-seven\ntons of nitrogelal' .\nCortina lies in tl *rntro of a vast\nmagnficent emert ' ' colored basin,\nsurrounded by thirty little groups of\nhouses and is one of the resorts in\nthe alpine region most frequented\nhv foreign tourists.\n' Next the picturesque Lake of\nI.andro, on whose tranquil surface\nare mirrored tho huge ice towers of\nMonte Cristallo, and then our arrival nt Toblarh nnd we have passed\nOolomitic region from\none side to ihe other. . - \u25a0 J_, \u25a0', \u2014 . .
