Many people have found out the truth about old
fashioned coffee.
They have overcome disease caused by It,
The plan was easy and sure.
Quit Coffee and use Postum.
Proof with ones self is stronger than any theory.
The Postum army grows by hundreds OF thousands
yearly.
The old-fashioned Coffee Magnates are now derid-
ing Postum through the papers.
Because their pocketbooks are hurt, they would
drive the people back to the old coffee slavery.

that the supply is adequate for that
purpose. While this showing, on its
/ face indicates compliance with
law, the fact remains that the water
supply, If any at all, is not sufficient
to permanently reclaim the land.
The ownership of stock in pro
jected irrigation ditch which does
not exist in fact, or the ownership
Of pump temporarily installed, has
often been accepted, in connection
with such testimony, as proof OF the
possession of water. Many alleged
irrigation bitches or reservoirs are
familiar to members of the Commits
sion which are utterly inadequate to
irrigate a square rod, and upon the
strength Of such works patent has
frequently then issued to 33O acres OF
land.
Frauds committed through conyen-
tional forms Of perjury and through
lack of proper verification Of the
facts as to the reclamation Of the
land justify the taking of immediate
and radical steps in the revision of
the law. The law should absolutely
require an actual adequate water
supply, and the limits as to quantity
should be defined.
In short, the law should render i'm
possible the continuance Of the
practices by which desert lands
and without crops are passed into
the possession of claimants.
Grabbing Lands.
The great bulk of the vacant pub
lie lands throughout the West are un-
suitable for cultivation under the
present known conditions of agricul-
ture, and SO located that they can
not be reclaimed by irrigation. They
are, and probably always must be,
OF chief value for grazing. There are
it is estimated, more than 3OO,OOO,-
coo acres of public grazing land, an
area approximately equal to one-fifth
the extent of the United States
proper. The exact limits can not be
set, for with seasoned changes large
areas of land which afford good
grazing one year are almost desert in
another. There are also vast tracts
OF wooded timbered land in which
grazing has much Importance. and
until a further classification Of the
public lands is made 1t will be i'm
possible to give with exactness the
total acreage. The extent is 30 vast

At present the vacant public lands
are theoretically open commons, free
