Hqh Cost of LiWnq

Recently about everyone who can
spare the time from the illusive race
OF garnering enough round dollars to
meet current expenses has been de-
voting energy and brain to solving
the problem, "Why is it that it costs
so mnch to livc?" The Congress
|grapplcd with it In very much OF a
grand stand play-but "l1igh Cost
never batted an eye. The many rem
cdics suggested remind us very much
OF The countless cures for rheumatism
they work In some cases, but this
particular case is different.
Right or the bat salaricd people
want their wages raised, SO that we
can pay the increased cost of living.
But plainly this would not help the
situation ultimately, because IL we
further increased the cost Of manu-
facturc the manufacturer must again
raise his prices, and we would be back
again to where We started.
a tangible ray Of solution has been
sprung by Mr.. William G. Brown.
president of the New York Central
Railroad, in the current issue Of The
Independent, wherein he suggests
that the remedy for the present hig!
cost OF living is to get more out OF the
land. "Wc have been failing lately
in agriculture" says Mr.. Brown.
"During the past ten years our farms
have produced an average yield of
wheat amounting only to fourteen
bushels to the acre"
Mr.. Browns solution looks good,
for evidently, IL we can make two
blades of grass grow where we are
growing one now, the cost per head
for pasturing will OF necessity become
cheaper.
In line with this thought 1t is we'll
worth while to turn to the trcmcn-
dous Importance OF irrigated lands.
Last years report OF the. United
States Department of Agriculture
shows that the average yield OF wheat
per acre In Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska,
Wisconsin and Minnesota was about
l3t bushels per acre, while the aver
age yield In Colorado was over "a
bushels per acre.
Potatoes In Colorado show an aver.
age yield OF l22 bushels per acre,
while seven other large potatO-pro-
ducing states show an average OF SO!
bushels per acre.
The same relative production per
acre Is shown in many other things
that VIC eat.
| 1t seems to us that the irrigated
fertile fields Of the Rockies hold the
solution OF the "IIigh Cost OF Living
problem.
In this great West there are irri.
gated lands for many. many thou.
sands OF families, and the present
widespread interest In them Is sure t.

Is asked to get In line and see that
