LAND EXHIBITION
TOSHOW CHANCES
Exposition Plan n ed by "Trib-
une" Will Point the Way to
OPPORTUNITIES in West.


The land resource and products
of I'll the states in the west, and
many in the south. will be exploited
this fall in the greatest exhibition
ever held in small building
The United States Land and
Irrigation Exposition. which is
being promoted under the execut.
i've and financial responsibility of
The Chicago Tribune will be held
in the Coliseum Hall, from Nov
ember 20 to December 1, this year
1t is the first exposition ever held
solely TO promote the colonization
to the new land IN this country,
now made available to home seekers
because of the recent reclamation
of vast expanses of swamp and arid
tracts.
Robert p. Cross, secretary of the
exposition, has just returned from
the West, where cooperation has
been given in connection with the
support already assured from the
southern states.
The limitless possibilities of the newer
West, where by the expenditure of vast
l ~ hxyt he Gn,
private enterprise millions of acres of un.
productive lands are being converted into
farms of the most wonderful fertility,
will be exploited for the information and
profit Of those who seek either homes or
investment at the United States Land and
Irrigation Exposition which opens in the
\ Coliseum Building, Chicago, November
20 and closes December 4, 1909.
This exposition has taken on national
significance and promises to bring under
one roof really comprehensive review
of the splendid opportunities offered the
ambitious, in the rapidly developing South
and West. 1t is to be something more
than prize pumpkin show; it is to be a
demonstration of the newer agriculture
which has doubled the yield, increased
the flavor and multiplied the food value
of the products Of the soil. 1t is promised
that the results obtsined by the irrigation
of the arid country and the drainage Of
the over.wet will be set forth in way
tAat will interest and instruct all who at.
tend.

decorated in most lavish manner and

LAND HUNGERS


The return to the soil' is on in esrn-
est. and the demand for farm land is be.
coming more insistent every day. Time
was when farm could be had for q sonf,
but that time has passed. Today desirable
acres command high prices in all the
more thickly settled sections, and the
land hungry man looks to the newly de-
veloped country for profitable investment.
The irrigated valleys Of the West are par.
ticulsrIy attractive. Here q few acres are
sufficient to support family, and prop.
erly developed, ten or twenty acres is
better than any Insurance policy ever
written.
The methods oJ preparing the soil, cuI.
tivatin& and developing fully, the possibiI-
tiles of few acres, will be shown at the
Chicago show.
The broad acers of Western Kansas and
Oklahoma, and Pan Handle and South
Plains of Texas, the Las VEGAS country in
New Mexico.- all are attracting atten.
ton. The products grown there, with
normal rainfall, plus scientific soil culture,
compare favarably with the best grown
elsewhere.
This modern soil culture, the to OILS used
by the dry farmer, and the results OBJ
tanned, all will be set forth for and illus
trated at the Land and Irrigation show.
