OPPOSES REEOgR's PLAN.
OvsrhauIs sixth District Congressman in
His Ideas as to Arid Lands.

His Ideas to Arid Lands.
1--WE notice that Hon. ". A. Reeder
has suggested 20 the president, says
George W. Dart, Of MOutrOse, Kan,
that $40 acres OF land IN the arid states
IS not enough for one man to make a
living from, and that $50 acres and the
government leasing the public lands to
cattlemen is about the proper thing
1.-The primary object Of giving $40
acres Of land to one man was the set
Ting of the country where $50 acres did
not furnish enough product, grazing and
otherwise, for support. Now, 1 would
like TO ask Mr.. Reeder in all candOr,
how can that country become settled
and leased to the cattlemen at the same
time?
MIR. Reeder's contention, whether he
intended il so or not IS that the arid pOr-
ton of the United States IS only fit for
Cattlemen and should not be settled.
This has been the contention of the
cattlemen and their friends ever since
the middle west began settlement. But
as year after year passed, and mile after
mile of this territory became settled al
ways pushing the cattlemen out Of the
way they found other use for the lands
beside grazing and when they even
pushed into the arid states they devel-
exist until experiments or necessity
brought them into use. The develop
ment Of irrigation in some of the arid
states has by storing of water and its
use in mOistening the soil increased the
rainfall IN those parts of states Just east
of those irrigated fields.
From this we may reasonably expect
that with larger bodies Of water stored
up by the government in a number Of
the arid states and the placing of larger
bodies of land under irrigation will
bring more rainfall to that portion Of
those states that are being prepared for
settlement by offering increased acreage
of land as hOmesteads. With the peO-
pie there experimenting with crops ad-
apted 70 their climate they, will find
other resources besides cattle-raising for
subsistence.
while on the other hand with only
I6O acres of land allowed, only cattle
men 90 10 that country and they will
lease large tracts of land and keep the
settlers out even If they tried to settle
there and the large cattlemen would
never develop the country nor care
whether there were other resources there
or not Large Cattlemen never yet
were much Of q factor in developing a
country, they only take from and waste
and impOverish-
they viii be- It viii be by small farmer
cattlemen. Therefore Mr.. Reeder' s
contention falls
