BOLIVIA Is PROGRESSING
John Barrett. Director of the tnterna-
tional Bureau of American Rcpub-
lies, Gives Interesting Data.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Aug. .
Argentine is a wonderland. In grow
ing wheat hay cattle and sheep she
is running the United States and
Canada a close second, and today eX-
ports more corn than any country on
earth. Yet so far only one-tenth of
the agricultural possibilities are real
lied. 1t is a big country. 1t has
1.135,OO0 square miles; more than
one-third of the size of the United
States, and this means all the area
east of the Mississippi and the first
row of states from Minnesota to
Louisiana west of that river in addi-
ton. Size, however, is not all there is
to Argentina by any means. She has
the industry and the equipment to
take advantage of her opportunities.
This country is gridironed with rail-
roads, $4,000 miles of them, so that
the traveller can go from one end to
the other as comfortably as from New
York or Chicago to Texas. But Ar
gentina is not satisfied. There are
concessions and contracts for many
more. so that in two decades more she
purposes to have $4,000 miles. This is
and will be all modern equipment, too
constructed as thoroughly as engineers
know how to construct.
Large Irrigation Dam.
In fact, everything in Argentina is
on an up-to-date and ambitious scale
one of the largest irrigation dams in
existence has been built there, and the
first train ferry in South America
across the Rio de la Plata for 81 miles
has been in operation for years The
traveller can not so any place in the in
terror without finding modern farms
and ranches on splendid scale. The
sheep and horses are of the best
glooded stock, the great ranch houses
will satisfy the finest taste for style

FOE OF FROST.
J. c. Plank, Inventor of Orchard
Burner. Visits City from Colorado.

]. c.. Plank, inventor of the Ma
tional orchard heater for frost pre-
vention, spent Monday in North
Yakima, seeing the valley and meet
ing fruit growers. Mr.. Plank thinks
highly of the Yakima valley and con-
sders it one of the coming fruit dis
tricts of the entire country. He said
that the Colorado fruit crop this year
will be a large one, due to the use of
orchard heaters at the critical time.
Mr.. Plank brought a few of his burn
ers with him on his trip and placed
one on display at the Horticultural
Union. He is confident that the time
is not far distant when they will be
in every fruit district susceptible to
