THE soil is bank which never
fails, never suspends, and never
wholly refuses to return. with in
crease, the deposits of seed and
labor instrusted to its care. Our
national dividend from this bank in
1907 is nearly seven and half bill
ions of dollars, and it has doubled
in eight years. The department
Of Agriculture has made possible
much of this increase, introducing
durum wheat, Arabian alfalfa,
hundred day rice, Norway clover,
Smyrna figs, and scores OF others.
Irrigation farming has produced
crops this year worth $3.50, 900, 900.
And there are yet two great oppor-
tunities of increased profit from the
soil. OF all our farm land only
half is improved. and only one
third is really fruitful. BY break
ing" the unplowed prairie, and by
intensive methods of cultivation,
the farmer will one day take from
the land new wealth in quantities
as yet not dreamed of.

Marshall, 1t had to cross d high en-
bsnkment, and at this point the wind
blew 1t of the track. The gale reach:

Boulder Of the accident Aid came,

storm proved disastrous to Boulder, as
fire broke out In the residence dis

THE proposal Of Captain Rich.
mond P. Hobson that the United
States should care for needy Con-
federate veterans does not meet
with favor in the South. There
are not many old wearers of the
Gray who are destitute. and the
states have thus far cared for these.
But if the national treasury were
opened there would be an itnme-
diate rush Of hungry claimants for
Its bounty, practically all of them
unworthy. The genuine Confed-
crate veteran is a proud, high
spirit old gentleman, as he ought
to be. and Congressman Hobson's
proposal is not at all to his liking.

EGYPT is something more than a
sand waste with an occasional
mummy buried in it. 1t is coun-
try of the present, as we'll as of the
past. The Nile has been hatnessed,
and the lands crops have peen in
creased literally hundredfold.
Irrigation works are being extend
ed to regions which have never
before produced crops. The cotton
output has tripled in thirty years.
and it is clear profit, for the crops
grown on cotton land in alternate
years more than pay all expense of
cultivation. 1t will not be long
before Egypt begins to weave this
cotton into fabrics herself Instead
of, as now, exporting it all to man
ufacturing centers in other lands.
