Gilman, Ia.

q. w. Moorhead, of Bristow, writes
to sustain his contention that Iowa
land prices are none too high. de
questions the figures presented In the
T.-R. In support of its claim that av-
erage prices of products in the past
would not pay fair interest on high
valuations of farms and yet he sub
nits none to controvert them. He
cites an instance to prove that present
Yields and prices sustain his claim by
saying:
IA l6o-acre farm near us was bought
a year ago for $50 per acre; money was
borrowed at 8 per cent for the pur-
chase; the 1901 crop produced $40 per
acre at the price of grain this winter;
the price of the farm has advanced $40
per acre; and all this happened in
north West Point township. Butler
county. Iowa."
OF course any claim as to the future
is largely in the nature of guessing,
but we are reasonably guided by the
facts of the past in figuring on the
coming years. The T.-R. would be glad
to be convinced by Mr.. Moorhead that
present land values will be sustained
without a reaction.

LETTERS TO THE T,-R.
mnside Point of View"


An "Outside View of the Prof. Pear
son case. is given by "Birdseye" in the
T.-R. of Feb. 20 BY your permission
I will give an Inside Point of View
of this case.
First. From this "Outside Point of
View" Birdseye seems to see this late
professor as minister of the gospel OF
high standing in his denomination, ana
calls him doctor turnout his views,
while from the inside point OF view
we see Prof. Pearson to have been only
private member of the Methodist
Episcopal church. and no doctor In any
neutrality-suspicious. d. D., LII. D., nor Nj.
D.-slmply professor of English literat-
ure in the Northwestern University.
Therefore we on the inside smile
when Birdseye suggests THAT more
than one church in New England could
call him to Its passionate. Better get
him a iicence to exhort first.
Again, we en- the inside see what ap-
pears to us grave inconsistency. IN

professor before the public as an expert

makes no claim to thorough research.
am reminded of the words of Jesus
to the Sadducees when he said to them:
I'VE do err, not knowing the scriptures
and the power of God.
Also / recall an incident related of
Newton illustrating how man may
talk wisely in one sphere of knowledge
| and be very ignorant in another
| Prof. Gillette was professor OF mathe-
MATES in an English college and was
quite an outspoken infidel. Newton said
| to his friend Gillette, II like to hear you
| talk on mathematics, because you have
| thoroughly studied your subject. but
am sorry when / hear you talk about
| the bible, because you display an ignor
ance concern that book that is mortify-
| ing to your friends.
! Prof. Gillette was Mt first angry, but
on second thought said: I'll know the
bible as thoroughly as l do geometry
He did so and became a devout Chris
tian.
In conclusion from my inside point
of view having been pastor IN the
Nj. f.. church for forty years and for 8
good share of this time teaching the
bible class in the Sunday schools have
| this to say: have never seen tins
when there was a firmer and sener-

lief In the truthfulness of the Htera
histories of the miracles of Jesus thar
is now found in the membership OF thu
M. e. church. And who say with Me

The Wright County Monitor believes
"There is no disposition on the part of
Iowa people to tax railroads excessive
ly-simply desire that they should
pay their just proportion of public ex-
pense." 1t thinks the plan most in favor
is that of taxing the roads at their ac-
tual value (to be determined by an ex-
pert in railroad building) and then as
sess at one-fourth that amount.

after a rain is the time to attempt their
destruction. for it is then that the ants
are very active, bringing out into the
sun to be dried any of their stored up
food supply which may have become
damp. A half teacupful-more if the
nest is a very large one-of the carbon
b%lsulphide poured into the nest at this
time will usually accomplish the re-
suit. The ground being damp and cool
is also another decided advantage in
that it prevents the too rapid absorb
tion or volatilization of the carbon BIZ
sulphide, consequently a less quantity
of the chemical is needed.
Aword of caution in the use of the
carbon bisulphide is deemed necessary.
1t must at all times be held in mind
that the substance is highly infamable
and under certain conditions explosive.
Matches, pipes, etc, are to be left at
home when the chemical is to be used.
The carbon bisulphide can be procured
from any druggist and costs here in
Tucson so cents per pound, but can be
bought for much less wholesale. 1t is
probable that the remedy is not prac-
ticable upon any very large scale. wv

RECLAIMING ARID SOUTHWEST
Wonderful Achievements Of irrigation
in the Pecos Valley.


Robert M. BARKER in May Forum:
Undoubtedly the greatest system in
the arid southwest is in the Pecos val
ley of southeastern New Mexico. where
over $4,000, 900 has been expended by
private enterprise during the last
twelve years in turning aside the wa
tiers of the Pecos river and making q
wonderfully exuberant garden of the
valley famed in song and story as the
former retreat of the most desperate
train robbers, cattle thieves. and other
outlaws that the west has eve known.
In this valley, which is 120 miles long,
two enormous reservoirs, Mcmillan
lake and Lake Avalon, have been made
by the erection of dams carried across
the river just north of Carlsbad. One
of these is LAO feet over the top, and
completely fills a notch worn by the
river through a bed of solid limestone.
Mcmillan lake Is thirteen miles long,
and contains enough water to supply
the entire lower valley; while Lake
Avalon is half as large. There are now
available for cultivation over $50 900
acres, of which perhaps one-fifth is en-
gagged. Here irrigation has not only
restored a sun-bakeu alkali plain, but
it has created several prosperous little
settlements, and has transformed the
towns of Carlsbad and Roswell from
uninteresting and shadeless gambling
holes into attractive and lively small
cities, each with a wealth of fine trees,
hedges and other physical attributes of
the well ordered New England CON-
munity.
More than 1000 miles of canals.
main and su%b-lateral, carry the waters
of the Pecos to a myriad of little
farms. where they are sent through
tiny bitches, banked with earth. until
every living organism has received it's
share. At the unusually low yearly
rate of s1.25 per acre, the farmer has
the right, at twenty-four hours notice,
to all he needs. The water is hard and
of an excellent quality; but its chief
virtue is the possession OF a great
quantity of carbonates and phosphates.
Moreover, the valley is a veritable bed
of gushing springs; n of them being
sufficient to irrigate 10000 acres, and
another having a flow of 1000 gallons
per minute. Here are grown the finest
cantaloupes in existence, as we'll as
peaches, apples, pears. grapes n
plums of the highest standard of ex-
ellence. The vegetables arrive early,
and include beets, asparagus, sweet
and Irish potatoes, cauliflower. onions,
cabbages and celery. The local mar
kets take a large share of these crops,
and the remainder finds a quick sale
as far north as Minnesota. Much OF
the land is devoted to alfalfa. Kafir
corn. sorghum, millet and other forage
crops, these being the most profitable
because of the large tributary ranches.
