A PROFITABLE INDUSTRY.

There is no room for doubt that
the goat industry is cne Of the most
profitable of any which can be engaged
in for the arid region, both for the
plains and mountains Goats require
little care, will increas mora rapidly
than any other kind of stock, and will
live and thrive where any other kind
Of. stock will starve. They are more
profitable than sheep. They cost less
20 raise and sustain. They will live
on shrubs; will climb the most rugged
mountains and fatten where sheep or
cattle will starve. They require less
water than any other kind Of stock.
There is cash value to every hide.
The meat of the kid especially is as
healthy and pvlatable as any kind o.
meat. There are idle mountain and
plain ranges in Southern. and Central
Arizona which could sustain millions
Of goats. Who will show the spirit
and enterprise to branch out into this
pro ftable and safe industry. y.-Star.

Federal "A AID.

The time seems fully ripe for the '.
west to take firm and decided stand
on the question Of national irrigation
and something great may be accomp-
lished at once. Why mott Il is as
right that Congress should appropriate
money for storage reservoirs as for
river and harbor improvements. The
building of storage reservoirs would
obviate the necessity for much river
expenditure and would help navlga-
ton. and Che home building area Of
the United States would be vastly In.
creased. And now If che West makes
this demand the Eatt will back it up,
for the benefit would not bo local.
Every western paper is int rested
in seeing this development accomp
lished. What would be the result Of
an appropriation Of eight or ten mil-
lion ,lars spent annually in the west
For irrigation construction The i'm :
mediate stimulation would be enor-
NOUS and the future benefit greater.
This policy should be inaugurated
and the western press should urge it
with one voice. 1t is national mat
ter; it can be productive only of great
good; the East is responsive; will the
West be aggressive; it is time to work.
It is the opinion at Washington
that $40, 100000 will be appropriated
by this congress for river and harbor
improvements. OF this the western
half of the United States will get,
judging by previous records, a couple
of million or so. Whatever are her
possibilities, it is not contended that
the West is as important or infuen :
tial as the East. She has not yet the
dense population; but why should she
not get at least a fair share Of this
great appropriation : Why should
she not get fourth Of it, to be ap-
piled to the building Of great storage
reservoirs to be filed with food waters
for use in irrigation, under a system
Of internal improvements "
The government is spending large
sums in aiding in the development of
foreign trade and the openidg of for
eign markets for American manufac-
turers. 1t is believed that wa should
push our goods into every market Of
the world and sell tfsm. The belief
is also gaining ground that the govern
ment should also develop its home
market for American products and
manufacturers This it could do by
rsclailning the 75,oO0,Ooo acres Of
western arid land and settling them
with thousands of industrious homs
builders. Eastern merchants are
more than willing to see such AN
undertaking. The West should tate
the initiative
