guest, "but l haven't another room in

suasivly delivered, failed to work, and
the grum-looking man went away.
When he had got over the threshold
the suave clerk smiled pensive smile
and said: "You can't do anything with

commodations. And yet this man

Nothing in the world except that in

folding bed. You'see we are crowded

apartments. He is crank on the sub
ject of folding beds because in modern
times two or three human beings have

up inopportunely, and had their lives
crushed out. I pleaded with him that

Wheatland. There he can see, side by
side, the virgin soil, with its scant COY
ering of stunted grass and cacti. and
the cultivated field, smiling with abund-
dance, the result Of the application Of
water. 1t is hard TO realize what is be
ing done there without actually seeing
the work. Not very many years ago
this vast stretch of prairie was the home
OF the graceful antelope; later it WAS
considered good range for cattle and
sheep. Now it is the scene of a great
industry and wonders are being perform
ed by the irrigation Of the soil.
Wheat yields from 30 to 40 bushels
per acre; corn makes almost as good Il
crop as in any Of the states in the ia.
nous corn belt aud alfalfa seems to

every one who cares for them; in fact
there is nothing that the climate Of
Missouri, Iowa or Illinois will produce
hat is not as easily cultivated in Wheat
land.
Not only it is a great agricultural
country but it is proving to be a very
promising fruit country. Many or
chards have been planted and some of
them are beginning to bear. All kinds
of small fruits flourish there as well as
anywhere in the United States.
1t is destined to become a great stock
feeding country in time. Situated on a
direct line Of road, shippers and feedcrs
will find it IL convenient place to feed,
and the question of what to do with the
large amount of hay and grain produced
by the country will be solved.
What is being accomplished at
Nheatland in the way OF agriculture
and fruit raising is bound to work a
great revolution in Wyoming. The
time is coming, when, stimulated by her
example, other parts Of the state will
undertake to do what she is doing.
The result will be many such beautiful
garden spots scattered over the entire
state. In time We shall be able to raise
all our own vegetables, grain and fruit.
Considered in the light OF thirty years
ago this sounds like the rawlings of "A

WHY is it, when some discomfort ed
does SO with an injured air. as though
some one was personally responsible for
the falling off IN business, or the town.
collectively, was against him? So often
one hears some d~iscontented individual
rail at the town and country, for what
he himself is to blame, and if he is not
on the top wave Of prosperity he turns
his disgruntled coutenance around to see
whom he can lay the blame on. Such
men are a hindrance to any town or
community upon which they intliCt their
presence.
