California Woman's Letter Of Spec

At this season Of the year a letter
from the land OF flowers and sun
shine is of special interest TO our
readers. The following letter from
the Holden Drug Co, of Stockton, Cal
one of the largest drug houses on the
Pacific coast, is OF especial interest.
They write; Enclosed is a letter
from one OF the the most prominent
residents Of the town. She will not al
low her name to be published in the
newspapers, but we can furnish it to
anyone writing US"
The letter is as follows:
"For some four years my daughter
has had headaches, which seriously
interfered with her school work,
Until recently we attributed the
trouble to eye strain, but happening
to notice your advertisement Of Hy-
omei we were satisfied that her
trouble came from catarrh.
"We purchased a dollar outfit, aud
within t%wenty-four hours great relief
was experienced, and the looSening
Of mucous matter and the reduction

days use Of Hyomei made nearly a
complete recovery, which we consider
very satisfactory after nearly four
years Of expense and fruitless treat

feel grateful is to put 1t mild"

ton, to the disregard and neglect of
the vastly more important problem Of
building men at home, and creating a
citizenship which will be an enduring
national foundation forever, and en-
larging our home markets, which will
be unaffected by any foreign complica-
lions or trade disturbances.
The attention of our people Of late
has been so much absorbed by the
problems Of our export trade, that we
overlook the fact that the United
States today manufactures annually a
product aggregating i'm total value the
combined manufactured product Of
the three other greatest manufacture
ing nations of the world. England,
France and Germany, and we con-
sumo ninety-two per cent Of our entire
annually manufactured products at
home.
Create Farm Homes.
And If every farm In the United
States were cut in two, and a new
home created on 1t so that the number
Of farm homes, and the capital In
vested in, and labor devoted to agri-
culture throughout the entire United
States, were thus doubled, the result
would be an enlargement Of our popu-
lation, our home market for manu-
IactureS, anu our power as nation,
almost beyond the power of the imag-
ination to picture to the mind.
1t is to the development of its vast
agricultural resources and the creation
of a closely settled population of far
mers and gardeners, who will cult
vate the soil by the most intensive
methods, that the Middle West must
look If It is to achieve its full destiny
In wealth, power and population.
The resources Of the great territory
extending westward from the crest OF
the Allegheny Mountains to the one
hundredth merchandise edge of the
arid region-and from the sources OF
the Mississippi River on the north Il
its outlet to the Gulf on the south, are
so largely agricultural that it offer:
the ideal section of the earth for the
development of nation along the
lines of Japanese development, Will
a preponderating rural population.
There Is no other section of the
worlds surface where latent agricul
tural resources Of such inexhaustiblt
richness and extent lie practically un
developed.
Charlevoix county herald., 1905-11-18

Guilty I'm the way Of 1t is a mere Gus
tom or habit, easily modified. IL
The terms of school OF all city
schools should be changed. There
should he n short winter term, dur
ing which the time should be given 10
instruction from the books ana III
handicraft within doors.
There should be summer term OF
equal length during which the SCHOOLS
would be transferred to the suDurps'
and work in summer school gardens
The children should be taken back
and forth to these summer scnooi gar
dens at public expense, as they are
now taken to and from the CONSOLE
dated rural schools OH the trolley
lines In some of the New England
states.
The vacation, which would not need
be so long. should be divided between a
spring vacation and a fall vacation,
intervening between the winter city
erm and the country summer term OF
each school.
Building a Strong Citizenship.
OF course, many will hold up their
hands and say this is impossible.
England finds it impossible. as the
result Of her system Of great landed
estates, to provide her people with
homes on the land, and in conse-
quence her ruin as a nation is only a
question Of comparatively brief
time.
Japan, on the contrary, put forth
her hand and solved the very problem
which, to England, seems impossible,
and behold the results in her strength
and power as q nation.
1t is only question with us, as a
people, whether we will follow the
lead Of Japan, and profit by her les.
sons, or follow the lead OF England
and share in her eventual ruin.
The influences which are destroying
England are at work steadily and in
sidiously in this nation, and though
it will take longer for them to work
our ruin, it is sure to come IL we do
not find way to root the great
majority Of our people to the land In
homes Of their own, as Japan has
done, and as we can do, unless we
are as blind and as impotent in deal
ing with our national problems as
seems to be the fate of England.
In the carrying out Of this great
patriotic purpose of building a strong
citizenship by building rural homes
on the land, we are. at the same
time, doing that which will create
the greatest possible commercial
prosperity, and develop to the high
est attainable point, not only the re-
sources Of the Middle West, but of
our entire country.
Charlevoix county herald., 1905-11-18

nor military equipment, nor manu-
featuring skill. Western nations will
fail fully to grasp the secret OF the
dynamic intensity Of japan today, and
will dangerously underestimate the
formidable possibilities Of the Greater
Japan-the .Dai NippOn-Of tomorrow
until they begin to study seriously the
agricultural triumphs Of that empire.
For Japan, more scientifically than
any other nation, past or present, has
perfected the art Of sending the roots
of its civilization enduringly into the
soil.
Progressive experts of high author
ity throughout the Occident now adj
NIT that in all the annals of agri-
culture there is nothing that ever APP
preached the scientific skill of Sunrise
husbandry. Patient diligence, with
knowledge of the chemistry of soil and
the physiology of plants, have yielded
results that have astounded the most
advanced agriculturists In Western
nations"
The Safe Foundation.
The creation of the conditions above
described under which the people OF a
nation are rooted to the soil in homes
of their own on the land, is not only
good craftsmanship and the highest
patriotism, but it is the only safe foun-
dalton for an enduring national
structure.
To ignore and neglect this founda-
ton while we build battleships, equip
armies and annex islands and dig
Isthmian canals, is as fatal mistake
as it would be to build twenty-story
skyscraper in Chicago without any
foundation but the mud Of Lake
Michigan.
We need not muster out our armies,
nor dismantle our battleships nor
evacuate the Philippines, nor stop
work on the Isthmian Canal, but the
fact remains, as clear as the sun from
an unclouded sky at MONDAY, that the
attention of our people as nation Is
riveted on our naval and military af-
fairs and schemes Of foreign exploita-

fifty million figure; 1t has stacked up
gold in its treasury, has created Il
great merchant marine, has captured a
growing share of European commerce,
has already outmarshaled commercial
America on the Pacific, has crowded
it's cities with roaring factories, ana
has given costly and triumphant equip
ment to its aggressive fleets and regl-
ments. And it has accomplished all
this out of the profit of harvests
cleaned from a farm area scarcely
large enough to afford storage room
for the agricultural machinery in use
in the United States"
Could there be more striking proof
of the oft-quoted words Of David Starr
Jordan, that
stability of national character goes
with firmness Of foot-hold on the
soil"
Comparison of Areas.
Now compare Japan and it's devel-
opment with the possibilities of devel-
opment in the Middle West.
The area of all the islands compris-
ing the Empire of Japan is 1866
square miles; of this only 10000
square miles is available for agricult-
ure, for every available acre in that
country is cultivated.
The total combined area of Wiscon-
sin, Illinois and Indiana is 146,36O
square miles, and it is safe to say that
considerably more than half of this
area-probably more than two thirds
| Is capable of as close cultivation
and of sustaining as dense a popula.
ton per square mile as the cultivated
area of Japan.
| The water with which to irrigate II
| now runs to waste. The water which
| Chicago turns into her drainage canal
instead of producing agricultural
wealth by irrigating the lands of ILL
nois, produces law suits with st. Louis
because It runs to waste past tina
city to the Gulf Of Mexico.
The time will come when irrigated
agriculture in the Middle West will
absorb every drop of water falling
within that territory.
| And when the irrigation canals and
the irrigated farms of the Middle
West will dry up the Ohio and the
Mississippi rivers, just as irrigation
In the West has dried up Tulare Lake
in California, and is rapidly drying uI

Charlevoix county herald., 1905-11-18

ton from Japan has not yet been
learned, and when President Roose-
welt fails to see it,and demands only
more battle ships, as the lesson of the
great sea fight which has just been
fought, he unfortunately diverts the
minds of the people of this country
from facts of supreme and overshad-
owing importance, which should be
burned into the public mind as by a
stroke of lightning from every victory
won by the japanese.
That lesson is the profoundly i'm
portant fact that the Japanese man,
the unit of her national strength, is
the product of a mode of life and an
environment which combines the
physical strength which comes only
from the rural life-from living next
to nature-with the mental activity
and keenness which come from con-
slant contact with his fellowmen-the
community life.
A Nation of Gardeners.
Farmers, as we understand the word.
They are a nation of gardeners.
Ghere is neither isolation nor conges-
Eon In their life. They dwell, the
great majority of them, not in great
cities, but in closely settled rural COM
munities. The ranch and the tene-
eoent are alike foreign to the life Of
ebe Japanese.
The greatprinclple that mustcontrol
our own national development hence
eorth is that the land shall be subdi-
vided into the smallest tracts from
which one mans labor will sustain a
Family In comfort, and that every
ehild, boy or girl, in the public schools
should be SO trained in those schools
that It will know how to till such
tract Of land for livelihood.
In other words, let us reproduce in
this country the conditions SO well
described In an article from the Book
sovers' Magazine for August, 1904,
from which we quote the following
"While Japan is cannonading its way
"a rank with Christian powers as a
