The story of this prosperous

he large wheat ranches of the
Sacramento Valley, has certain
bearing on the great popular move
nent aiming at the repeal of ex'
sting laws under which the ma
lions lands are being recklessly
'quandered.
In the face of such example o.
the productive capacity of irrigat
ed land under intensive cultiva
ton, why should we continue tC
give away three hundred and
twenty acres to single individual
or twice as much to man and hi:
wife? This is what we are doing
under the Desert Land Law. AND
every time we do it we shut the
door of hope in the face of ten ol
twenty families who might ge,
homes on the public domain if the
unit of entry were cut down to
reasonable figure-say, twenty
forty or sixty acres, where the
lands are adapted to intensive
farming and the Desert Lane

the Homestead Act repealed.

I II E ONE ACRE HON E
The Man Who Owns It "Owns his Boss And
Hos a Job for Lite."

William E. Smythe, writing from
Los Angeles, Cal, to Maxwell's
Talisman, has the following to say
about small farms
The Sacramento Valley, of Cali
fornia, is land of big farms. Pri-
vate estates run all the way from
one thousand to one hundred
thousand acres. 1t was once prof
liable to farm vast areas in grain.
When this speculation began to
fail, in consequence of the ex-
pansion of the industry in foreign
lands which had learned to use
American labor saving machinery,
the tendency toward big farms was
not checked, but rather accelerated,
since many holdings were consoli-
dated in the process of mortgage
foreclosures.
Although the Sacramento Val
lev is blessed with most abundant
water supplies, irrigation is not
generally employed. There is little
rainfall from May to November
yet grain and deciduous fruits are
grown without artificial moisture.
But the big farms are not prosper
Gus. They are largely cultivated
by tenants and are strangely de-
void of features which make the
true California farm one of the
most delightful home-spots i'll the
world. The men on the land sell
all they produce and buy nearly
all they consume. And so they
pay tribute to others going and
coming"
| have been visiting a farm in
the Sacramento Valley which con-
sists of one single acre of irrigated
land and which makes a better
home and larger net income for its
owner than many of his neighbors
enjoy on places of thousands of
acres each. The little farm is at
Orland, in Glenn county, and is
the property of a man named
Samuel Cleeks, who has grown old
and gray while .tilling it for the
past thirty years.
Mr.. Cleeks tells me that he has
no difficulty whatever in making
a comfortable living from this one
acre of irrigated land. Not only
so, but he is able to save an aver
age of four hundred dollars year
beside. He has money to loan, as
well as fruit, vegetables and poultry
products to sell to those who are
getting poorer every year IN car
rying on big farms without irri-
CATION. | was So curious to know
how he could get such good re-
suits from so small an area that |
asked him to give me list of what
the place contained. Here it is:
