suspect that the new found zeal of

mines will lose a good customer.
Mr.. Teller is said to be a stockhol-

silver basis, buys a great deal of
silver from the mines of United
States, and if the European coun-
! ries get control of China. 1T goes
without saying that the silver s an

The Bad Lands.

In it's widest scope, the arid reg
ion of the United States comprises
half the territory of the entire
country; for to so great an extent
must irrigation be employed either
as a primary or secondary factor IN
tho cultivation of crops. From
about the Goth to the Goth meridian
there is a strip Of about two ham
dred and FIFTY miles in breadth
which Major J. W Powell calls the
"sub humid" tract. Within 1T there
is an annual precipitation sufficient
to insure crops, but the preciplta-
ton is so disproportionately be-
slowed, and at such irregular inter
walls throughout the year, that the
seasons of successful farming are
interpreted with long and disas-
trous drougl is; reliance, therefore,
upon moisture directly falling from
the clouds is extremely hazardous,
and, unsupplemented by waters
from stream distribution, it is not
generally reposed
But west Of the Goth and east of
tx l negilian, throughout the
whole breadth of the country, from
Canada to Mexico, there is a dis
trlct in which nothing needing
moisture greater than that required
by the artemisla or the cactus can
Ibe planted and grown. 1t is a re
gion a%ggregating about N million
three hundred and forty thousand
square miles, a territory larger
than Arabia, as large as and not
more arid than the combined areas
of Persia and India, with their
united populations of two hundred
and fifty millions of human souls.
