Health in the Desert.

He wanted a very dry place where
the air is filed with heating baln and
where the sunshine takes the place Of
drugs and artificial heat. He fonrd
this ideal spot On the western edge 81
the desert, about 100 miles east of Les
Angeles. Here he established the Ia
dian Health camp about eighteen
months ago. He bought a tract OF land
which is irrigated by artesian wells
and proceeded to erect cheap but COM
Portable quarters for his colonists
whom he had no difficulty in securing
In ample numbers.
Mr.. Nelson believes that true pros
perity in the land of irrigation is to
be had by the intensive cultivation or
little farms rather than the wasteful
tilling of big ones. And at Indio he he
lieyes that five acres are enough. On
these small areas his settlers are
raising table grapes, melons. sweet
potatoes and other products which are
readily sold in nearby markets at
fancy prices. In that favored spot
these garden crops mature earlier than
elsewhere In California and are there
fore very profitable. The Indio peo-
pie believe they will achieve independ

eight times as much land under the
Desert Land law as they are buying
from Mr.. Nelson at cost price and pay
Ing for with the proceeds Of their land
and labor.
The truth Of the matter is that he
people Of India are making homes and
tilling the land, while their more ac-
quisitiye neighbors are specializing in
the public domain. This speculation
will go on as long as the land laws
continue to favor human greed rather
than human need. The Desert act
not only enables the requirement Of
large tracts Of government land, but
1t requires no settlement or residence
whatever.

A RAILWAY ON THE ICE.

In laying an emergency railway over

dertook very remarkable feat OF engi-
neerlng The lake, which, next TO the
Caspian and Aral Seas Is the largest
inland water In Asia, offers serious OBJ
stacle TO the continuity Of the Siberian
railway. Mr. Walter kirton, who has
gone out 20 the far east as one Of the
special representatives OF the Daily
Graphic. described, in the letter published
last Monday. the mode In which the traf-
flc was conducted when he crossed, lie
told how a lane OF water was maintained
through the Ice by the passage four times

which carried on each trip a railway

ago, and by this time. probably, tho wa

The alternative Is to unload each train
