Thcm'van bo no doubt of the money va
of irrigation to agriculture , writes 11 ,
Wilson in an article on "Tho Irrlgat
Problem In tlio West , " In the current in
bcrof the Knginecring Magazine. Farm
with the aid of irrigation is moro lucrnt :
though moro expensive , than farming in i
humid regions without it. The first cost
the land without the water supply is
pendent very much on the locality , It ran
from 11.85 per acre , the government pi
where laud is abundant , as in Montn
Idaho , Arizona , and generally through
west , to fiom ? 10 to )3 ) per acre , where
crops und land are moro valua
OB in portions of Colorado , U
and California. The average c
j > er aero of developing an irrlgal
plant ranges between 1 In Idaho , Montana
nnd Washington , and ( II ) to $15 in Utah.
Colorado and California averaging about $8
per aero for the arid Region. Tlio average
annual cost of applying water per aero in
other wools , the annuM average water
rental paid by the farmer ranges between
Tli cents and _ J , reaching In some portions of
southern California as high as $10 per ncro.
The cost of preparation of the land for cul
tivation. which embraces clearing , plowing
nnd building ditches , Is between (8 and J15
per acre , thus making , according to tlio cen
sus returns , the average value of the irri
gated land , Including buildings , range be
tween ? 30 and ? 100 per aero. Yet with this
small cost land In California Is valued some
times as high as $1,000 per acre , and In other
IKirtlons of the west it is always several
times the actual cost of its purchase and
preparation.
Against this cost wo ilnd that the annual
average value of the products per aero of
irrigated land ranges between $15 In the
northern and western states , and $ , ' . " > to W
tier aero in Utah and Colorado , to from $ f > 0 to
f 1,000 per ncro in California and In southern
Arizona. Tlio actual value of the returns
from irrigation is much greater In many
cases : 1t la sometimes less , according to the
intelligence and enterprise of the cultivator .
Wo hear marvelous tales of the value of or
chard products In southern California , yet
astounding as are many of these , some of
them are well within the truth. It Is not an
unusual thing to sou a well tended orchard
produce returns of from $ . " > 00 to SSOJpor aero , ,
while grain and vegetable crops In other
parts of the west yield proportion
ately largo returns. The disparity
between irrigated and non-irrigated
land seems at llrst glance too great , yet this
disparity is n result of the scarcity of water
mid Its consequent value. Wo Ilnd land in
California which is valued at from § 5 to ? IO
per aero for sheep raising purposes when
there is no water supply in prospect , but let
the same land be so situated that there is a
possibility of developing a water supply , and
its value is found at once to bo S.Vi or oven $ . " > ( )
per acre. Kuch pi-ices would not bo paid and
could not bo asked If the returns did not
warrant them. California is used as a single
example. In Montana land that without
water is worth perhaps S'J.50 per aero is
worth with water from ? 10 to $ ' , ' 0 per acre ,
and between these two extremes the values
vary in the arid west.

The Tin Miner gives It out ( latfooted that
tlio Harney 1'cak tin mill Is fast getting into
shape to prove to the world that American
tin is to bo henceforth a prime factor In the
American market.
The jigs now in use are "bedded" and arc
doing most excellent work. A portion of
these on the other sltlo will bo put
in motion next week nnd soon the machinery
of the entire plant will bo at work. The up
per set of jigs where the coarsest mineral is
taken out have delayed matters as these
must produce their own "bedding" and the
mineral is in consequence not as yet as frco
from gangue matter as that produced by the
other sets , but tlio dilllculty is now nearly
overcome and the coarser minerals will hereafter -
after be pure. The vannors are graded to
threesizesof ore. the ilncst being almost an
impalpable powder approaching slimes and
are free from all foreign matter. The product
of the ores from several mines lias been kept
separate and each show characteristics of its
own.
own.Tho electric light plant in the mill lights
up all'parls of the building like sunlight and
is the greatest of all great improvements.
A body ot rich tin ere was uncovered in
the Czar mine at Tenderfoot last week. The
ore is of the same quality and appearance as
the largo boulders wliich wore sent to l on-
don several years ago and which excited the
admiration and wonder of mining men
throughout the world. The original owners
were at great expense to find the ledge from
which tnese rocks were broken , but failed.
Since the Harney Peak company have
owned the property they have worked It al
most continuously , and though they have
found ore of much more than' the average
quality since striking the ledge , it is only
lately that this extraordinary rich ore lias
been met with. The crystals of cnssitcritc
are as largo as au ordinary man's thumb and
look like they had been thrown in promiscu
ously with only sufficient gauguo mattei
mixed with them to hold them together anil

New YOIIK , Deo. 25. Dr. Paul Glbler ,
president of the Now York Hacterlologleal
society and director of the Pasteur Institute ,
read nn Interesting and important paper be
fore the Medical society of the County of
Now York at the Academy of Music In West
Forty-third street tonight , on "A New Agent
In the Treatment of Kpllepsy. In it ho tells
the results of n scientific treatment which ho
has applied to a class of patients for the llrst
time in this country or elsewhere. The
treatment is.ln line with that which has nx-
ultod Interest In scientific medical circles in
France , and is a step in advance of the
method employed in a somewhat similar
treatment in Paris. The tnulorlil used Is
prepared from the vital organs of sheep
after it baa undergone certain treatment In
the labratory of the Pasteur Institute. The
injections were made daily in caeli side of
the patient , Just above the hip bone.
Dr. Glbk'r says that some two years ago
nn account was published In tho-French
muillral journals of an epileptic patient
treated at the Pasteur institute in Paris for
the blto of a mad dog , who was cured of his
epilepsy t > .v ttto anti-rablo injections. Moro
recently other accounts of the euro of epi
leptics by injections of tlio anti-virus rabio
had been published , and public interest had
been aroused in the now treatment.
Before an opportunity was offered to coin-
potent critics to examine the remedy or llio
statements of patients who were sup
posed to bo cured , and also with
out waiting for the test as tp
the reliability of the treatment , it
was widely accepted , and moro than ono
hypothesis of its mode of action was pro
posed. Dr. Gibiersaid that ono observation
at least was established , and that was that
Borne patients had their seizures checked , at
least temporarily , after the injections of tlio
anti-rabio virus. After some remarks upon
the rationale of the euro and the normal
functions of the nervous system when re
stored , Dr. Glbior said that ho had been
enabled , by the courtesy of Charles Li. Dana ,
visiting physician at Uellevuo hospital , to
make a number of observations extending
ovcrsix mont'is of the effect anti-rabie inocu
lations had on persons nftliclcd with epilepsy.
Ho said that onn of these patients fur
nished him with au observation which
seemed to show that as far as u euro for epi
lepsy is concerned wo cannot expect much
from the Pasteur injections. The patient , a
man of 8:2 : years , an epileptic from infancy ,
had been treated with the antl-rabio injec
tions for eighteen days and not only did tlio
epileptic convulsions continue but they in
creased in number. Dr. Gibior said ho was
not surprised at this failure , inasmuch as ho
had learned indirectly that the cause of the
untimely announcement of the euro of epi
lepsy by the anti-rabio inoculations was duo
to the fact that this disease had been tem
porarily stopped during and after the inocu
lations lu two young epileptics who hael been
bitten by mail dogs , and treated at the Paris
Pasteur institute.
Dr. Glbicr ascertained that in the injec
tions given at the Pasteur institute by which
temporary relief seemed to have been af
forded to some patients , the rabic virus was
not injected alone , but in association with a
largo amount of nervous substance , and
therefore , it occurred to him that if any ben
efit had been derived from these injections it
might be attributed to the nervous matter
ami not to the contained virus. Consequent
ly he determined to test the treatment with
the injection of extract of grey nervous sub
stance , which ho called nervine. The lluid
was prepared according to the strictest rules
of bacteriology , and , in order to avoid fatal
accidents , it was made perfectly antiseptic.
The doctor said the now treatment was de
rived frqin the method proposed by Dr.
Brown-Se < iuard , who thinks that lluids ex
tracted from young and healthy organs can
give to those which arc abnormal and scnllo
the attributes of the young and healthy.-
Dr. Gibier then gave an account of the re
sults ho had obtained with his nervine. In
his reference to the case of a young French
man , who Belongs to a family with an epl-
'optichistory , Dr. Gibiersaid : "Before being
subjected to this treatment ho was almost
continually in u state of epileptic vertigo ,
losing consciousness momentarily several
times daily ; ho had n persistent headache
and very severe seizure at least once
weekly. Ills memory and his mental powers
were decreasing steadily and his face had a
very idiotic expression. Ho had been
subjected to various forms of treat
ment without much Improvement. Undei
the Influence of the injections administered
flvo times weekly and without any othei
remedy , his condition improved remarkably.
The severe attacks diminished in number
and gravity , ho recovered consciousness
very rapidly after the sei/.urcs , was without
persistent headache ami his memory became
normal. The idiotic expression disappeared
and ho was more Intelligent. Ono of tlu
most interesting results was its disappear
ance , which is only present when the truat <
ment is interrupted. Instead of four or live
violent attacks in the period of a month , IK
was one month and a half without an )
symptoms of morbus sacer. Today ho re
ceivcs only two injections of six cubic ccnti
meters weekly , and for two months his im
provement has been most satisfactory. "

Olllflitl Appointment.
An announcement was made in political
circles last night of unusual interest to many
of the political pilgrims who have "happened"
in Omaha the past few weeks. A confiden
tial friend of Governor-elect Crounso stated
that Prof. W. 13. Andrews of Hastings had
boon chosen for the position of private secre
tary to the next governor of Nebraska and
that ho had accepted.
During the late campaign Prof. Andrews
made a name for himself politically in the
Fifth congressional district , whcro ho cut
down McICclghan's old majority by thou
sands of votes. In his admirable light for U
scat in congress ho made many friends in his
section.
Prof. Andrews has also made a good rec
ord in educational work. In January , 1835 ,
ho was elected to the chair of Latin and his
tory of Hastings college and has been unti-
quito recently identified with college work.
Ho has not been known as on ollico seeker
and his peculiar fitness for the position ho
has Just accepted is said to have induced his
appointment.

sny''good bye" to prosperous old " 92" to bid
n warm welcome to the bonnic New Year " 93" .
All's confusion throughout the store goods
promiscuously piled aroundstocks disarranged
such an overhauling. In a business of such
*
magnitude as ours , some odds and ends will
accumulate in spite of closcstcare. This isour
week to dispose of them. Whenever , in this
general overturning of stocks a broken line of
any sort or kind of goods is found be it over
coats suits hals shoes or little fixin's it's
marked down at once without regard to what
it's costtous-to such a figure , as to amply re
pay you the discomfort of the muss we're in
to buy it at ' 'inventoiy prices. "
