TWO BOYS DISAPPEAR.
Sons of Wealthy Chieagoans Supposed
to Have Been Drowned.

~ EldNC oVCH IiSNNNCos
Fish Creek, Wis, Aug, 1S-The sup
posed double drowning of two boys,
sons of wealthy Chicagoans, became
known yesterday when r. II. Parkson
of Chicago engaged a tug to seek the
bodies of his sixteen-year-old son, Jel-
son, and friend named Montgomery.
The boys went sailing Sunday last,
and have not been seen since. Tuesday
the boat drifted ashore containing
only young Parkson's clothing, in
which was letter from his father.
The finding of the clothing in the
boat is considered sufficient evidence
that the boat did not capsize, and the
manner in which the accident occurred
is mystery.

Growers ii broom corn in the vicin-
ity of Vermillion are little puzzled
as to what effect the premature head
ing out of the corn will have on the
quality. Many fields already are head
ed out, being about Two weeks too
early, compared with former years. II
is hoped no injury will result. but the
proprietors OF a local broom factory
fear the straw will be short. Only a
half crop Of broom corn would mean
quite loss to the broommakers, as
the product is worth 1926 per ton. The
crop in this part Of the state averages
a ton TO every four acres

DO the people of the West, even
those most familiar with the results
Of irrigation, realize the extent of the
possibilities there is i'm land watcred
properly. A government expert re-
porting on Egypt shows that "a tract
of land no larger than the irrigable
area of California sustains from agri-
culture alone 100000 people, sup
ports an expensive government and
pays the interest on the National debt
that is half as big as that of the Uni
ted States" At that rate Cache Val
ley ought to furnish the food product
for everything west of Denver.

usually the man who wants a section
of land on which to support one sheep

Forty acres Of Illinois or of irrigat-

beef than desert county in New
Mexico.
Put water onto the land and you
can raise vegetables, grain, hay, live
stock and people; without water all
you can raise is sage brush, a horned
toad and an anarchist.
Fifty thousand acres of irrigated
land is worth 100000 acres of sand
and barrenness. The arid states that
will consent to give up, If necessary,
nine-tenths Of their area in order that
the other one-tenth may become fer

1t would seem that the people Of this
county might become educated to the
idea of good roads. Such conditions
as now exist force them to see the
necessity Of such, but it will take Il
little longer to stir up some decided
movement for the accomplishment of
this great thing. The people must
first understand that bad roads are
more than an inconvenience that
they are expensive. When people
realize the eXpensivencss of bad roads,
they will demand the cheapest roads,
which are good, hard roads that can
be used with facility every day in the
year. Bad roads are heavy tax upon
the people who use them, and the tax
falls most heavily upon the farmers
and producers. Good roads, once paid
for, are perpetual saving to travel
and transportation.

The United States with its increaS-
ing population, and Asia on one side
with 600,000,000 and Europe on the
other with lOO,00O,OOO population,
should be one Of the leading nations of
the world in shipping. While our pro-
gress on land in the last few years has
been phenomenal car shipping inter
ests have langn'Snui. Our nation
cannot reach it, IN growth and meas
ure of progress until its shipping is
more equal TO its industries on the
land. 1t appears as though the atten-
ton of our nation has been occupied
in developing the west by building
railroads and other large enterprises,
while the shipping on the seas has
been partially forgotten and neglected.
The United States pays each day $500
600 dollars TO foreign shippers which
figures about So per capita each year.
If our country was supplied with yes
sells this amount could be saved in our
