fact that all repairing equipment is
close at hand, while here in Winnie
mucca, in many instances, it can only
b. obtained from San Francisco or
some other city. But in big towns
nearly all buildings are fitted with gas
fixtures, and when the electricity
fails the gas is lighted. While thus as
sured light at all times, the cost is
much higher.
Although in years past, during the
dry season, it has been necessary to re-
sort to the pumping plant for the
town s supply of water, there has ever
been enough to supply all legitimate
demands. During the seasons mention
ed, however, the business has been con-
Quoted at considerable loss, and the
company has constantly been on the
lookout for means of increasing the
gravity supply. A few weeks ago, at
great expense, all the water rights in
Thomas canyon were secured by the
company purchasing the land, and as a
result the town is now assured an
abundance of water for ali purposes
during the entire year.

Government AID
FOR H0MESTEADERS

"Seventy per cent for war; two per
cent for farms" That represents the
appropriations of congress in time of
peace, and forcibly suggests the high
cost Of food products. Reverse the
conditions for only one year, using part
of the vast sum to aid farmers, or
those who are now cooped up in the
cities and would be glad to go on to
some Of the idle lands. Help these
people with railroad fares, rations
and tools to establish themselves until
they can harvest at least one crop.
The money so furnished need not be a
gift or donation, but loan, secured
by real estate. The land is useless as
it is, therefore the government gives
lit as homesteads to citizens. AS soon
as it is occupied and placed under cul-
tivation it becomes valuable, producing
property. The aid furnished the farm
er can be charged against the land and
a patnet withheld until the advance
with intrest is repaid. In this way the
government is not out cent.
Let the government aid 100000
homsteaders in this way and encourage
all to keep at least one cow and pair
of hogs. Once get the system started
and it will rapidly spread. 1t will be
freely advertised by every country
paper in America and in three years
from its inception there would be no
more cornering of food products and
but little distress in the cities.
Tt was by this system the Canadian
northwest was first settled. Without it
the settlement would have been much
slower than on our more favored val
leys. 1t paid the government well, and
the wisdom of the policy is shown by
the fact that within the last five years
90, 900 citizens of the United States
have taken up homes there, carrying
with them, according to the Canadian
officials, ninety millions of dollars in
cash.
1t is estimated that the 1910 census
will show Nevada to have a population
of $4,000. That is less than one halt
of the population of either Oakland OF
Las Angeles, California, while we have
land and conditions here to furnish
good homes and profitable employment
for at least ten millions of people with.
out crowding. We have all required
resources and it would actually be pos.
sible to maintain such a population
within our own borders without i'm.
porting anything of consequence ex'
cept tea and coffee.
The cost and maintenance of one
battleship would settle 10000 families
in Nevada valleys and in a very few
years their earnings would represent
annually more than the cost of such a
battlesship. The same condition ap'
plies to other sections of the west.
