LIKE OUR OWN WEST.
Remarkable Similarity Between
Algeria and Arizona, New Mex
leo, and California.

The American southwest is new
country, but it seems there are other
| countries with conditions very similar.
A man who has been travelling in the
interest of the west and southwest
| % w. T. Swingle, special agent of
the department of agriculture. He
has been spending something like
Mediterranean, and he finds in north
Africa conditions of soil and climate
almost identical with those of the
American arid west and southwest.
These countries in which he has travel
ed being of very ancient civilization,
he finds growing there many things
which will undou btedly prove valuable
acquisitions to America. Among 9th
err things Mr. Swingle has succeeded
in shipping the minute animals which
pollinate the Smyrna figs to California
fig-growers and establishing these in
sects in our own country. This is some
thing the department of agriculture
has been attempting for years. and it
now insufes the fertilization and pro-
duction in California of the famous
Smyrna fig, the finest fig on the mar
ket.
Mr. Swingle hiss also selected and
shipped from Algeria large NUN Der
of ate palms to New Mexico, Ari-
zona and California, it being Secre-
| tary Wilson intention to establish an
American date industry. He has also
procured seed of the scarlet vetch, a
| legume, which in Algeria grows to a
height of seven or eight feet, and also
| d grass known as halfs, valuable for
use in the manufacture of fine book
paper. Another legume which is
| used for blowing under is fenugrec,
| which he saw yield as much as twenty
| tons per acre of green stuff.
Although much larger, the Sahara
closely corresponds to some of our
| western desert land. It is being irri-
gated to some extent by means OF ar
tesian wells, which result in GASES of
considerable size. Under irrigation
and the great heat of the desert enor
nous yields are obtained.
MIR. Swipgle admires the camel as q
least OF great utility and believes it
could not but prove a success in Ger
tain sections of this country, If intro

eat scrub, bushes and thOrns, and they
can carry across the burning desert

At one time Rome controlled all of
northern Africa, and Mr.. Swingle OBJ
serves that their reservoir systems
must have been very efficient, as he
found vast ruins of splendid cities,
