farms OF from nifty to 100 acres. and
grazing farms OF from 500 TO 5000 acres
which are sold on time and advances

piicants for land in New Zealand are

Of occupying government land. The

Under this tutelage the very tramp

and even during the preparatory chrys-

his transformation without being
brought into competition with outside

elsewhere provides nothing better than
almshouses, jails and r5vster's fields.
They cover an area of 1890 acres, and
on them the men are prepared TO own
their own farms
In addition TO the settlement of farm
lands, loans are made to workmen in
the towns, so that they may acquire
their own suburban lots and cottages.
The advances made by the govern
ment can be either on the fixed loan
or the installment system. On the
installment plan mortgages are pay
able by seventy-three half yearly pay
ments of principal and interest COM

$l4.60 half year on each S486.65 ad-

Army III New York. He had just re-
turned from Ogden. Utah where ne
had attended the National Irrigation
congress. The result of this congress
viii doubtless be active measures on
the part OF the government to irrigate
vast tracts Of arid lands in the west
and southwest.
His plan IS.
That the United States government
shall make the Salvation ARMY the
colonization agent of 100000 acres OF
irrigated land TO be sold on long time
payments to worthy poor persons. In
order that these settlers may properly
cultivate the soil and build homes and
make ivelihOOds for themselves and
families, it is proposed that the govern
ment snail lend to each purchaser OF
forty acres $500. which, with the price
of the land. shall be charged up against
him at fair rate of interest-say )
per cent.
1t is suggested that the land be sold
on contract, and. until fully paid for.
that the title shall remain i'm the United
States in fee simple. The Salvation
Army asks for no remuneration for
acting as agent and the actual cost
OF finding settlers for the land viii be
nominal, as it viii be conducted in con-
nectiOn with other philanthropic work
performed by the vast machinery of
the big organization. All that the
Salvation Army desires to gain from
the project is the right to provide
homes for poor persons who have been
carefully investigated by a board of
examiners.
In other words. Booth-Tucker wants
the United States TO follow the action
Of New Zealand, which was the first
government to undertake colonization
on systematic plan, and which, UNI
der the Advances 10 Settlers act. has
voted $l5,O00,000 to be lent to colonists
at the rate Of AZ per cent a year.

Caution

This is not a gentle word-but
when you think how liable you are
not to purchase the only remedy
universally known and a remedy that
has had the largest sale of any medl
cine in the world since 1868 for the
cure and treatment of consumption
and throat and lung troubles without
losing its great popularity all these
years, you will be thankful we called
your attention 10 Bnschee's German
Syrup. There are so many ordinary
cough remedies made by druggists
and Others that are cheap and good
for light colds perhaps, but for
severe coughs, bronchitis, c%roup-and
especially for consumption, where
there is difficult expectoration and
coughing during the nights and morn
ings, there is nothing like German
Syrup. The 20 cent size has just been
introduced this year. Regular size
