At the same house were seen two white wash frocks; one was elaborately em- broidered in open work and leaves; the other a bolero quite elaborately braided with heavy braid. It would seem the bolero is to be more than ever in evidence the coming season.

 INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. 26.-In a statement issued here Vice Presi- dent T. L. Lewis of the United Mine Workers of America declares that there will be no strike of the mine workers on April 1, saying the opera tors will restore the reduction accept ed by the miners two years ago and perhaps more. The statement follows:
 "You may accept one proposition as a fixed fact-that there will be no gen. eral strike in the mining industry on April l. The operators will restore the reduction accepted by the miners two years ago and perhaps more. F. L.. Robbins of Pennsylvania and Mir. Fay Tor of Illinois, leaders of the opera tors, recognize their untenable posi- ton at Indianapolis and have grace fully submitted to the inevitable and will pay an advance to the miners.
 "A general strike will be averted. Business will not be paralyzed by in- dustrial strife. An era of peace will be established for another period of years, and the trade agreement meth cd of settling labor disputes will win new friends to its standard.
 "The anthracite operators must now grant au advance in view of the ac- ton of the bituminous operators.
 "The great coal consuming public will not materially suffer by reason of the advance which will be granted to the miners" ..

Conquest ct "a. Great
American Desert


There is now SS7,OooOOO appropri
ated under the national irrigation act
to build great irrigation works now
surveyed and approved, or under con
structon, that will reclaim 1,2OOOOt
acres of desert waste. That Is one
tenth of the total cultivated area OF
Japan. Ten times that sum Of money
S3'o,ooO.0O0, would reclaim 10000 OOt
acres, an area equal in size to the
entire cultivated area of Japan, and
capable of sustaining as great a pop
| ulation.
In other words, for less money
than the Panama canal will cost, we
could reclaim land with a producing
power equal to all the agricultural re
sources OF Japan. Isn't it worth do
ing! And it would be done by oul
own people, for our own people
within our own territory, and the in
situations created would be American
institutions.
We have ten times that amount
that can be reclaimed in the west
ern half of the United States. So we
can, In half our territory, create ter
agricultural empires, each the equa,
or Japan in productive power. In
olher words, we can sustain a popu.
