RETAINING THE ARID LANDS OF THE WE

TO the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir. In a recent issue of The Tribune there was a,
editorial on the reclamation OF the arid lands, SUI,
petcd by the action Of the Massachusetts State Boa
Of Agriculture in opposition 10 any aid for this worn
by Congress There is general miscohception Of ts
otpa conditions governing the reclamation of the ara
domain. and of the needs and desires Of the peoph
engaged therein.
In the first place. II is not desired that the United
states Government should appropriate money for Ii.
building of canals or reservoirs. No general apprl
praon OF this character has been asked for 50 far
| am aware and it was the Western senators at ii.
last session Of Congress Who defeated the appropriation
for continuing the survey: IL would seem theretx.
that the Massachusetts resolution was both unva.
ranted and unnecessary.
There il, however, urgent need OF radical chaneeh
our present land system Tie land laws are who'll
nnsuted to the conditions of a country where rra
ton is ndispen sable and their operation imposs
great hardship on the individual settler seeking
home: while the ownership and control Of the publ
land ny the United states authorities prevents d.
state from extending any efficient aid and greab
emtarrasses its efforts in securing proper regulatls
and control. This is giving rise to complications aa
abuses which, unless they are soon remedied mus
greatly iniure the future success Of irrigated agrcuk
ure.
The apprehension that the effort TO reclaim ii.
lands susceptible Of irrigation is destined nIur0uSyh
affect the East is "A mistaken one. The state Of
wyoming has perhaps, as large an area susceptible
reclamation as any Of the arid commonwealth; vet
is doubtful if the entire farm production OF the ssu

mineral resources Of this region Will IN lne nea

By AMMONIA,
Tho Terrible Agony Does not Pre-.
vent it's Use.

OSSS
No poison brings death with more
maddening agony than ammonia, but
that fact does not seem to discourage
the suicide. The man Harrowitz, who
deliberately swallowed u fatal dose Of
the drug in New York recently, is only
one Of the many who have gone the
ammonia route to death in spite of
the ex%cruciating pain. DR.. Blyth has
recorded thirty cases of ammonia
poisoning in the small London district
Of which he is health officer. Profess
sor Mitchell mention twenty-five
cases., and four having occurred during
the short time DR.. jenkins has been
connected with the coroner's Office in
New York.
Cases Of slow poisoning from ann
monia are of constant occurrence
among men who work in its manu-
facture, or even in decomposing sub
stances which give it of in considerable
quantities. Ammonia, slowly and
from day to day taken into the system,
causes the complexion to loose its
freshness, and the skin of men who get
heavily IN impregnated With it has a
d~isagreeable blotched and discolored
appearance. Taken into the stomach
from day to day and even the small
quantities used to adulterate food such
as baking powder. 1t net only Injuries
the complexion but attacks the lining
of the stomach, aud is the source Of
much general i'll health.
The recent rapid increase in the use
Of ammonia for various purposes, and
the consequent increase in its manu-
facture, have made it one of the most
easily obtained poisons. and although
everybody is familiar with it in some
form, there is a surprising amount
1t ignorance of its dangerous quail
ties. Its use as an adulterant in apv
food preparation is simply a crime,and
as a crime shonld ha nnnished
