scented. The foot of the sewing ma
chine is removed and the stocking in
serted, the grooves in the oval band
allowing the needle to pass through

CAR YIELDS TO WITTE,
Crisis in Russia Said to Have Brought
Him to TERMS

Him to IermS.
London, Oct. 31-The Daily Tele-
graphs st. Petersburg correspondent
says:
81 am informed that the emperor has
just accepted the liberal program, ap-
pointed Count White premier and CIV
en- legislative powers to the represen-
tative assembly, allowing representa-
tives from all sections of the pOpula-
ton to be elected to it and abolishing
martial law throughout the empire.
am further informed that the emperor
will issue a manifesto to the people to-
morrow"
Court in Revolt Against Car.
The correspondent of the London
Daily Chronicle at St. Petersburg
sends the following:
The court is in revolt against the
emperor, who is vacillating between
the counsels of his ministers to grant
constitution, with Count Witte as
premier, and the advice of the re-
dictionaries to proclaim dictatorship
under General Count Aylexis !gnatieff,
a member of the council of the empire.
One of the most ominOus factors in
the situation is the feeling among the
Firms. There are only 1000 troops in
Finland, the 5000 reservists sent there
having been brought back because
they developed revolutionary leanings.
Should the Films revolt, the govern
ment could not reinforce the garri-
sons, because every soldier is wanted
here, and the navy is unreliable.

Conquest :. d: Great
American Desert
SaS ssaS

Were all Of arid America At for the
living it could be occupied by a third
Of the entire population Of the United
States. Go into the foothills of Colo
RADIO and Nevada. There the sage
brush springs from the sand as 1t does
on the sun-baked mesas Of Arizona and
New Mexico away to the south. The
statistician estimates that even in Kan
sas, Nebraska and the DakOtas fully
rs. 100000 acres will produce only
scanty herbage-just enough to keep
range cattle alive few weeks during
the grazing season-yet these states
are not considered a part Of the des-
ert.
Already a modern miracle has been
wrought. The one who has not visited
the oasis created by irrigation may
scout this assertion. but should he
chance into the valley through which
the Rio Pecos flows, or in Colorado
along the Poudre river, the landscape
Of field, orchard and garden which ma
ture has created in a literal wilder
ness will convince him beyond the
shadow Of doubt. In the southwest
fruits and grains both Of the tropic
and temperate zones are to be seen
growing in luXuriance where yester-
day only greasewood, sagebrush and
cactus existed.
Vet the soil is unchanged, save for
the application Of water. 1t is that
Of the desert-without moisture. al
most incapable of supporting life.
When moistened, however, these par
ticles of sand. even alkali rock, con-
tain properties so fertile that from
them springs vegetation more abun-
dant and luxuriant than the crops that
are gathered from the rich loan Of In
diana and Illinois and the fertile val
legs Of New York itself.
Though less than 10 per cent Of the
available area for irrigation has thus
far been reached, III Colorado itself no
less than IS per cent of the lands
availa Bile for cultivation depends upon
the artificial water supply. These
farms aggregate 10000 acres. The
South Platte valley, the most extern
sively irrigated region in the United
States, including portions Of Colorado,
Wyoming and Nebraska, has 100000
acres which are al.tihcially watered.
Farms in Utah thus supplied aggregate
100000 acres; Arizona contains 100000
acres, New Mexico 10000 acres, Ne
braska 100000. while some Of the most
productive valleys Of California, which
send their fruit and vegetables by the
carload to all parts Of the United
States, as we'll as the principal cities
Of Europe, are nurtured entirely by
wells and canals. Yet the average size
Of an irrigated farm Is not over 40
acres, which gives an idea of the mil
lions Of people who to-day depend
upon these great water works for their
livelihood.
