Some good people from Mass achusetts are carrying on mis- sionary work at Calhoun, Lown- des county, Ala, forty miles south of Montgomery. Forget ful of the great need of mission ary work within ten miles of the dome of their own state house, they are seeking religious and social regeneration far from home. To this end they are helping people to become land owners and live in their own houses, cease paying rent. This is a kind of helpful socialism which strikes most people as practical, and is one of the strong points of the Mormon church But the place to begin such work is right at home.

SCOPE OF THE WORK
The Yuma and the Salt River Valley Projects.-An Increase of Popuia- ton to Result from More Intense Cultivation.

Washington, May 10.-Apro- pos of the formal approval by the secretary of the interior of new irrigation projects under the reclamation law, in Califor- mia, Oregon and the Dakotas, the interior department today issued a statement covering the dispo- sition of the reclamation fund. which in part is as follows:
 "These approvals mark prac- tically the close of the prelimi- nary or tentative stage of recla- nation work. The projects in each state and territory are now we'll outlined and provisions are made for all the available funds.
 During the two years which have nearly elapsed since the passage of the reclamation law efforts have been concentrated on general examinations and comparison of the merits of va rious projects.
