Mr.. Knapp has Il pleasant home and
family, and apparently is well-tixed
financially. why he should be willing
to go to Alaska is not altogether clear.
1t seems to us as though one must en-
dure great deal of exile, shake with the
cold and suffer much on account of alb
sence from civilization, for very small
honors. Perhaps Mr.. Knapp goes from

GUARDING THEIR HOME INTERESTS.

The problem before the farmers of the
whole country is to find some branch of
husbandry which can be made to pay
Out West they have discovered what the
farmers of the East learned some years
ago, that it is hard to get any profit out
of raising beef cattle in competition with
the Texans, and various measures have
been devised to guard the interests of the
agriculturists. The legislature of Mime
sofa has just passed an act intended to
shut out dressed beef which is curiosi-
ty in legislation. 1t provides that all
meat sold in the State shall first have
been inspected ION the hoof'', that is, all
meat sold must have been butchered and
dressed in the State.

Senator Steward Of Nevada in the
Forum: The vast region IN the United
States where the rainfall is sufficient for
successful agriculture comprises about
swt .6fths OF entire area exclusive of
Alaska 1t aggregates about 1 200, 900
square miles, end is about equal to the
combined areas of great Britain and Ire
land. Belgium, Denmark, France, Ger
many, Italy, Sweden, Norway, Holland
and Austria Hungary.
This arid region embraces nearly all
ths public domain and ls CAPABLE of sup.
porting o population OF OF least 200 600,
600. 1t ls q third larger than British
India, q country having many similar
physical characteristics, and supporting
over 200,0 900 900 inhabitants largely by
irriestion. In solving the problem how
to utilize this vast arid region 60 as to
make homes for the people We have the
experience Of thousands of years to
guide ns.
Tha most %populous nations of ancient
times occupied the arid regions of Asia,
Africa and Europe, and subsisted by
agriculture prosecuted by irrigation. 1t
is estimated that there are 5000, 900 acres
of land now cultivated by irrigation in
the United States, varying in value from
$40 to $1,000 pr acre. and yielding o
net income equal TO the interest on o
much larger sum than this valuation.
