Jeanne Granier, on the other hand,
declares that business details would

Sarah Bernhard is as lucky, happy,
feted and fete-giving at this hour as
when she first discovered America

That first American trip of Sarah's
lasted four months and put 100000
into her pockets. Grau gave her

penses, to special railroad car; but it
panied the great artistic to see sim

thenceforth she organized her own for
eign tours. Once she took Coquelin
with her to play ''L'Aiglon" at $500 per
representation. At the Gate and
when he played "Cyrano" in Paris, his
pay was only $500 per night.
They say that her own pathetic voice
so affects Sarah that the tears come

The empire builders of America
are commencing to realize that
the prosperity of the country de-
pends upon the success of the
farmer, and that he is really the
backbone of the nation.
The prosperity of the farmers,
and the demand for their prod
ucts at continually increased
prices has turned the tide of i'm
migration from the city to the
farm, and thousands of young
men who left the farm and the
"old folks at home" to work for
small wages in the Offices and
shops of the large cities, are COM
mencing to realize that life in the
city without anything to show for
their efforts at the end of the
year, is not the best way to get a
start in life.
The farmers son OF today goes
to Agricultural College i'll his own
state and returns to the farm
with a better and broader opinion
of farm life, full of ambition for
his future as farmer and realiZ-
ing that farming is an independ-
ent and profitable occupation that
any young man might be proud
to select.
Factories and new towns are
crowding ont the older farming
sections of the Middle West, and
the success of the Colorado farmer
in producing larger crops and
realizing more actual net returns
on n IU-acre irrigated farm than
can be realized ON 320 acres in
the older states is the magnet that
is drawing thousands of farmers
from those states to share tn e
prosperity of the Colorado farmer.
Colorado has doubled its agri-
cultural output in the past five
yeRrs, and will double it again in
the L 1t five years.
The present demand for irri-
gated farm lands has never been
elualled in the history of the
state, and those who are qualified to
give an opinion say that the vaLue
of land now coming under irriga,
ton in Colorado will more than
double in the next few years.
The demand for the products of
the farms of Colorado has no limit,
and the following extracts from
the Chicago Tribune of September
% will give some idea of the in
terest being taken in the back to-
the-farm movement which is being
encouraged by leading men of the
country,

THE WATER SUPPLY

The water supply has been ex-
nmined and very favorably report
ed upon by engineers of national
reputation, and also by the state
engineer of Colorado, who says
that in his opinion the water
supply is adequate and sufficient
for irrigation and reclamation of
all the lands subject to the duty
of the canal and reservoir system.
This insures the settlers plenty
of water for irrigation. For do
mestic purposes wells can be sunk
at very little expense.

THE IDEAL FARM

Is that where the labor of the
farmer and his family is sufficient
to run the farm. Labor then
yields its maximum fruit and is
unattended with troubles of any
kind. or course, it is obvious
that much of the labor-saving ma
chinery possibly on the big farm
would, save in exceptional cases.
have TO be dispensed with. The
economy of the small farm is nee
essarily different from that of the
large farm, but while there are
considerations which seem to favor
agriculture on an extensive scale.
1t is inevitable that the intensive
cultivation of the small farm
should mean more to the country
at large as well as to the farmer
himself.

population. In 179O over 90 per
cent of American people lived on
the farm. Today less than so per
cent live outside of the cities. The
immigrant populace is mostly ab-
sorbed by the great cities, and
though today there is "back-to-
the-farm" sentiment, widely felt
and expressed, it is still true that
the country needs more farmers,
more farms and better cultivated
farms.
So long rs the laborer feels that
he can do better in the city, of
course he will not stay in the
country. 1t may be very clear
that, on the whole, his lot and
that of his family would be
better if he stayed on the land.
But if the advantages of the farm
apart from the concrete considera-
ton of wages, make no appea !
to him, the lure of the city
will naturally prevail. The stir
and movement of the big city
seem to counterbalance the crowd
ed and insanitary, often wretched
conditions under which the labor
ing population of the city exists.
Something may be hoped for from
the spread of information, espec-
tally in the daily press. Mean
while, the opportunities on the
land can be pointed out to that
part of the city population which
is already awake to the drawbacks
of city life.

THE COUNTRY
NEEDS MORE FARMERS

AT the recent convention of
bankers in Chicago, James J. Hill
is reported as saying: Last year
the value OF our total exports
classified as foodstutis, either crude
or partly or wholly manufactured
and food animals amounted to
Si3S,OOO,0O0. We imported of the
sumo clnssilicatious $329,OOO, 900.
The IdcH that We feed the world is
being corrected, and unless we
can increase the agricultural pop
ulation and their product the ques-
tion of source of food supply will
soon supersede the question of a
market for our own products
