, The advances made fin the past few years in methods of evading drouths and in conserving the water fall of drouthy sections seem simply won- derful as compared with old plans and old ideas. The smallest amount of moisture, under the dust mulch sys- tenn, is now producing crops that are at once the wonder and the admiration of the world. Arid plains are produc- ing crops that were formerly consid- cred impossible of raising except in the most favored sections. Added to the methods of conservation of mois- ture, new varieties have been discov- cred and evolved which are suited to the dry conditions, until it begins to look like the man on the hitherto bar ren plains is about as we'll off for variety of crops as those on the lands of regular rainfall.

Duveen Bros. Give Record Price For
 the kann Collection.
 London, Aug. 7-Duveen Bros, well known art dealers of London and New York, have just brought off another of those truly Napoleonic coups with which they are in the habit of startling the art world. About this time last year they purchased at the then un- precedented price of $1 ,25O,000 the col lection formed by Hainauer of Berlin. This time the transaction makes this former record appear absolutely insig- nificant, for the price of their latest purchase amounts to no less than a round $5,OOO,OOO.
 Some two or three months ago it be- came known that Mir. Duveen was ne- gotiating for the purchase of the Ru- dolphe Kann collection in Paris, but it was then thought that no firm in the world could transact single handed business of such magnitude. How ever, all doubts are now set at rest since the necessary deeds were signed, and Messrs. Duveen have entered into possession of this world famed collec- tion for the gigantic price mentioned.
 There can be no doubt the majority of the masterpieces from the Kann col lection will eventually find their way to America.
