Alr Thomas F. Mahony,

Grand Junction, Colo.
Dear Sir
The general program committee
for the National Farm Land Congress
in response to requests from the
North Central of Washington Devel-
opment League. the California Pro-
motion committee and Mr.. Edmund
7. Perkins. engineer in charge of the
U. S. Reclamation Service, Chicago,
has secured the use of a banquet
room located on the same floor in the
hotel with the grand ballroom, in
which the congress meets to be used
by them severally for the presentation
of lectures describing important rec
lamation work now in progress with
the aid of stereopticon views. This
y
of one thousand and this committee
tenders you an invitation to yourself
of it for the same purpose, we. having
learned that you have several very
interesting stereopticon slides pictur-
ing reclamation projects in your
state.
There will be no cost to you for
the use of the rooms, but the reser-
vation is made that these lectures
must be under the supervision of the
general program committee and are
to be advertised and exploited only as
a feature of the general program of
the National Farm Land Congress.
OF course, the general program com
mittee in announcing the program
from day to day will be only too glad
to give special mention to these lee
lures. No admission fee can be
charged of course.
Mr.. Perkins proposes to install one
of his own lanterns, of standard size,
and one of his own operators and
suggests that your association and
any others who may avail themselves
of this special privilege arrange to
prorate the expense of the installation
and connecting of the machine and of
the operators salary so as to avoid
lne unnecessary laDor ana annoyance
of changing machines daily and also
to save unnecessary expense for pack
ing, transportation and haulage of
your machine.
Should you desire to avail yourself
of this offer and If Mr.. Perkins prop
osition is agreeable to you, kindly
signify your acceptance by return of
mail.
Yours truly.

a Moqui Repartee.

A certain commissioner out West
was given to treating the Indians with
a scorn they did not deserve. One
day, as he sat with a great chief in
his tepee, smoking the pipe of peace.
the chief entertained him with many
quaint legends.
One of these dealt with a plague OF
locusts, and the grim orator described
in howery- language how they had
swarmed over the land, eating every
herb and green leaf, and blotting out
the light of day for every number.
Then, he concluded by remarking thai
it was not until the medicine man
made an offering of silver locust to
the Great Spirit that the creatures
disappeared, and this they did, swift

Loudly the commissioner laughed
the superstlttious Indian to scorn

fools as to believe that rubbish?" he
asked.

Golf In Hlnh Altltudes.

It Is strange how many golfers there
are who fail to appreciate the great
effect the density of atmosphere has
on the flight of a golf ball. On a still
misty day the ball flies about five
yards to ten yards less than it does
when the wind blows from the oppo
site and more acceptable quarter.
The writer was fortunate, or un.
fortunate, enough to play many
rounds a few years ago on the Johan
uesburg links in South Africa. These
links are situated some 5000 feet
above sea level aud the air is wonder.
fully rarefied. The ball consequently
few the most surprising distance; as
proof of this the winner of a driving
competition sent ball a carry Of 22s
yards, the second player returning
the modest distance Of 223 yards. Yet
neither Of these two players could ap-
procch the driving capabilities of good
amateur golfers.

Wants a Hor Law.

Editor The Star, Mena. Ark.
 Dear Sir:---I notice that you are a great booster for Mena and Polk county.
 Polk county cannot prosper with out a hog law. The lack of it is the biggest drawback it has got.
 A few people have got it imprinted upon the walls of their intellect that it pays to let hogs starve eleven months in the year and run in the woods to pick acorns one month. and keep that up for two years. There you have twenty-two months of starvation and two months eating acorns. Then put them up and feed them more corn to get them fat than it would take to fatten better grade of hogs if you fed them from the start. This. besides getting into corn fields and doing much damage. The man who has got to chase razor backs out of his corn after it is made has my profound sympathy.
 A Farmer.
