Buckley undertook the management
of this big business on the death of

of various kinds, including the very
finest OF pressed brick, the works be-

thing OF great interest to the people
is included in the articles manufac-
tured by The Montrose Brick & Tile

reclamation projects, the United
States not only makes lien on the
land but requires the entryman to
contract with subsidiary corpora
tion styled a water users association
TO pay ii and to make II a lien on his
lands, enforcible as contract and
liable by his default by process or
judicial foreclosure to take from him
his title. If the contract with the
Red Lands company creates in fact a
lien enforcibly by judicial foreclos-
ure it is no more Objectionable in
form than the government imposes
and requires of entrymen of lands in
its own reclamation projects.
In this project the water has 10 be
pumped 1870 feet, and part of it 255
feet, to the lands. This greatly in
creases cost of such project over
one where water carries itself to the
land by gravity. The price of s10b
per acre on highly fertile land is a
favorable latitude, thereby made
worth 5000 to even more than 5 900
an acre, can not be held SO great a
charge that rational persons, in good
faith desiring home. or even a fam,
would not agree to pay 1t. If one by
paying hundred dollars and dol
lar and quarter an acre can obtain
farm of one hundred and sixty
acres worth $500 per acre, it is not
an unwise bargain-nor is it proof
of conspiracy, that he agrees to pay
that sum. The facts comfort with
good faith, honesty. and fair dealing.
No provision of the desert land act
or of any other principle of law cited
or found by the Department would
Justify the cancellation of these en-
tries. where the entrymen have actu-
ally reclaimed the land and made a
desert productive of food for men
and beast in great abundance.

would necessarily be useless and

would become again n desert.
The price of 500 an acre is said
to be conclusive evidence of fraud,
because unreasonable. So also is
claimed to be the obligation of every
entryman, voluntarily assumed, to.
contribute to the system. In its rec
lamation projects the United States
requires every acre of land under the
ditch line to assume this obligation
of contribution. Every entryman
that seeks public lands under an irri-
CATION system, must assume 1t. This
sufficiently refutes the contention
that group of entrymen under
private system conspire to defraud
the United States If they voluntarily
subject their land to support the sys-
TEN from which water may be taken
for their reclamation. In these ex-
pensive projects cooperation is essen
tial, and il is the more laudable the
more voluntarily and heartily entered
into. In the reclamation projects the
water charge in gravity systems is as

 Friend Vadakiu: Your letter of the l4th came to hand. also Souye- niss c. K l was very glad 10 get them for l take a special pride in showing them to my friends and ac- quaintances. All to whom l have shown them speak in highest terms of the Souvenirs. The printing, the paper, and everything pertaining to them.
 Down here in San Antonio, where every body and everything is on the boost, they admit that :. \. has never gotten out anything to com pare with it. l do not see why the Business Mems Club have not purchas- ed all you had on hand. If I were at home l certainly would advocate and insist upon it. l think if the secre- tary of the B. M. Club would present one of the Souvenirs to every pros pector or prospective buyer il would do more to boom the city and the county than most anything else. Now, l wish you would try to sell all you have on hand to the E. NJ Club to be distributed as 1 have suggested, or as they think proper and best. 1 myself am willing to pay for ten copies, if they will purchase the balance you may have on hand. It seems to me that the merchants and the banks could easily contribute enough to make the purchase. l think it the very best advertisement they could make.
 When 1 was at s34 w Mistletoe Avenue, l wrote you letter, and while here at 1924 San Pedro Avenue, l sent you postal card with photo of residence l have purchased here as an investment, and also to save rent, and stating the improvement in my health and inquiring in regard to your own, as l heard at that time that your health was very poor. l sent quite a number of postcards to my friends in Forrest City, and the receipt of many of them were acknowledged.
 My son, Frank, is getting along very nicely. The wound is healing. and think he will be able to return to his school in couple of weeks at furthest. Hubert, wife and young Hubert, jr, are doing finely. Hubert sends his re- gards have had an attack of my old trouble, bronchitis and asthma, but the doctor thinks I'll be all light as soon as the weather gets a little cooler The balance of my family are all quite well and praying for the time when they can get back home to Forrest City, and myself am more anxious to get back than any of them. If noth- ing happens more than 1 know of now will be at home sometime next Spring.
 By the way what has become of our county's financial statement? If il has been published, l failed to receive my paper, or overlooked it. Now, il it has been published, please send me copy paper.
 With kindest regardst to yourself and family, and all inquiring friends, l am

Talkinu 70 the Child.

"Mrs. x talks to little Madge
Just as Mr.. K talks to their dog"
said little girl of neighboring fam
fly. And It was indeed true. Mrs.
< is a very well-meaning woman
and would be greatly surprised IL she
should hear the foregoing statement.
She has simply unconsciously acquired
harsh tone of voice in dealing with
her children. This is altogether un-
necessary and is not, as many moth
ers seem to think, mark of good dis
cipline. The mother whose manner is
quiet but firm is generally much
more successful disciplinarian than
the harsh-voiced mother who issues
her commands in dictatorial manner.
Kindness never spoils children. 1t is
fiabby indecision, sometimes mistaken
for kindness, which spoils them.

cant fact in the educational world
to-day is the demand that agriculture
