states that, with proper management.
he expects to make the place pay =
dividend of 20 per cent. annually on
the cash invested.
Five years ago the tract. which
now sells for $4,000 an acre. was Oh
LOT tie ordinary places being redeem
| ed from the desert. It was then pur-
chased for $4,000. which was consid-
cred q good price. Since that time
the owner has improved the farm,
and the trees have grown into cror
producers. And the expected mas
come to pass in the fulfillment of the
prophecy that irrigated fruit lands
would command $4,000 an acre.
That price does not appear exorbi-
liant when the growers report har-
vesting fruits that pay all expenses
and leave. a margin of 20 per cent
for profits on the money and labor
expended
There are thousands of acres of
good fruit lands lying in the deserts
and timbered areas of Washington
The present value of many such
tracts might be reckOned at less than
$40 per acre. But with water for ir-
rigatiOn, or the stumps and logs
cleared away for crops, the price
would increase many fold. Values
are counted on the producing posi-
bilities of the land Orchards that
return 1000 an acre every year
when planted to marketable apples,
peaches or pears certainly are worth
the original purchase price of $4,000
an acre. 1t seems like an exaggera-
ton of facts, or the common juggling
of figures, to assert that such in
comes are possible, but they are mat
tiers of record.
"The opportunities for securing
valuable lands are better today than
in former years. The young men of
the present have all the modern IA
cilities at their command for the de-
velOpment of profitable fruit farms.
The pioneer days are over in trans
portation, markets and all that goes
to make up profits in tilling the soil
in orchards or other crops. Invest
ments of labor and capital bring re-
turns quicker and more certain than
in former days. High prices in pro-
ductive lands do not prevent the
opening and improving of new areas.
Here is another of the numerous OPP
portunities.

No Rhyme For Tipperary.

A poet once jumped to the conclusion
that there was no rhyme to Tipperary
and said so. whereupon an indignant
Irishman. who CHANGED also to be bit
Of versifier. pounced upon him and
poked fun at him in lengthy poem.
every other line of which rhymed or
was supposed to rhyme with the place
In question. Thus:
A bard there was in sad quandary
To find rhyme for Tipperary.
Long labored he through January,
Yet found no rhyme for Tipperary:
Toiled every day in February,
But toiled in vain for Tipperary:
Searched Hebrew text and commentary,
But searched in vain for Tipperary.
And so on through many scores Of
stanzas, ending up with:
He paced about his aviary,
Burnt in despair his dictionary,
Blew up sky high his secretary,
And then in wrath and anger sware he
There was no rhyme for Tipperary.

Glasses md the Eyes.

Every one knows that in using a
field glass it is necessary to adjust 1t
to proper focus. Suppose that you
put one of the tubes at your focus and
the other tube at a focus that suited
some one else and then you looked
through both tubes. You would have
more or less blurred vision. and If
you kept on looking the chances are
that you would feel giddy and get a
headache. Now. the two eyes are sup
posed to have an equal natural focus,
and when by any chance that focus is
unequal a headache results. The rem
edy is pair of glasses or a single
glass to make the eyes equal in power.

The man who has either "lost in
terest" in the store ads. or who new
er had an interest to lose, is in bad
way. He is probably on the straight
road to "Grouchville," where all OF
the soured people go-the people
who "see two evils where but one
exists, and accept them BOTH"
The man is gradually getting Gun
acquainted" with his wife-that man

the store ads. He will find some
things in them to stir his imagination
once more. He may even conclude
to do little shopping" himself

words Dumb jewels often, in their
silent kind, more quick than words,

SHALL MILLIONAIRES RUN THE
GOVERNMENT?

Shall poor men be kept out of
moderate means be denied an oppor-
tunity to serve their country? Shall
the peoples representatives be frozen
out by the fact that they and their
families cannot endure to live shah
billy in obscure boarding houses.
while the golden tide of oppulence
overfiows the life of the national cap
ital? Is there to be social dead line
drawn around the approaches to
Washington? These are the prob
lens discussed in an article which
Appletons magazine publishes in the
March number. 1t is unusually
thoughtful and thought-compelling
and is written by United States SEN
ator Albert J. Beveridge of Indiana
1t is conceived in that republican sim
plicity, and expressed with that elo-
quence and vigor which have won
him his high place in American es-
TEEN.
Senator Beveridge in this article
points to the alarming increase of
luxury at Washington; and shows
how the standards of living have been
set higher and higher by the influx
of wealth until public officials of
moderate means are subject to end
hun, liofi r. =
ment for an increase of salary, for
as he shows, to raise a senator's pay
from $4,000 a year to $500 a year
would still leave him ludicrously I'M
fit to compete with the wealth tina
is centering in Washington.
Senator Beveridge delivers a brave
and vigorous arraignment of those
wealthy men who have bought their
way into the senate or congress, and
once there, have sought to hold their
prominence by the display of wealth
rather than brains or patriotism.
They set a pace in social life which
no one of modest means can keep up.
The hope of this nation Is in the
ambition of its poor and the equality
OF its opportunities, Senator Bev
eridge is recognized as one of the
most important legislators Of the

ster. He worked his way through col
lege and became a lawyer He is
therefore himself an example of the
invaluable statesman who have come
from the humber origins without
stopping to amass riches. The article
is therefore more or less personal.
The senator shows that the member
of congress or the senate who comes
to Washington without private for

child and. striding up and down the

had not finished the second verse Of

The Shanghai Times editor says:
The jail has been well administered.
but is fuller than 1t should be. due,
fear. to the abolition OF the cangue

has no great objection to repeated
short visits to the Jail, but shrinks
from a repetition of corporal punish
ment. Punishment with the bamboo
is In vogue throughout China. and
here only has it by special edict been
abolished. We deprecate the Chinese
authorities making this settlement a
field for experiment. and will press
for the reintroduction OF this salu-
