A. a Last Resort.

Although his proposal was beautl-
fully worded and almost convincing
in its earnestness, the fair maiden
turned the cold shoulder to him.
But this subterfuge had no effect
for the young man was vegetarian
of pronounced views.
Then, with some asperity. the fair
damsel told him to Go to grass!
This, OF course. he understood. and
could not argue against 1t without re-
canting his well-known principles.

This is the citys heap whereon is thrown
The useless wreckage that has served
Here worn-out garb. and crust. and rag.
and bone
by careless hand are idly flung away.
No pleasant place is this. no beauteous
This spot from which the city stands
Aloof-
Far yondcr In the shield OF leafy green
Are hidden city wall and gate and roof.
Here. too. the scavengers all quickly dart
From place to place upon the tumbled
heap,
Seeking amid the debris for some part
Which they may carry OF and sell or
keep.
Think Tn this pile OF broken. cast-off
things
They toss and take up worthless piece
by piece,
And while each day more battered frag-
ments brings
The scavengers their tollinE will not
cease
So Time has. too. place where things
A heap OF stun beyond lfe's splendid
gate,
Where WORKOUT theories are thrown
among
The useless envy and the ancient hate.
There day by day. and endless year on
year,
Are cast the aimless struggle and the
strife.
The frets. tho faults. the foolish dread
and fear
That clutter up the better ways Of lre
And there. too. bend the scavcngers again
To sort anew the bitter thoughts and
words
And bring them back TO vex the souls of
As do others with the bones and
shreds.
An, better were Gehennas olden fires.
The refuse OF the city to destroy.
And better were the flame Of high de-
sires
That leave no ashes blown upon our Tow.

SO unpromising that it evoked deri-

has become today the land of fortune
and opportunity. In this land Of
boundless distances the altitude Is
stimulating, the air is a tonic. giving
health to the infirm and courage to
those who have failed elsewhere. Its
constant sunshine encourages optim-
ism and cheerfulness. The glories OF
Its opal-tinted dawns, the indescrib-
able beauty Of its sunsets and the
nameless witchery OF its twilight soft

OF :. divine painter.
Its canyons. sculptured during un-
told centuries by wind and wave. are
unrivaled In their wonderful and
varied coloring and in their awe-in.
spring depths. Its deserts. In vast
ness of area. In potential wealth Of
soil and climate. and in rivers Of con-
slant supply. are sleeping empires
awaiting exploitation and develop
ment. Here nature offers to every
man his birthright-a wide sky. the

for intelligent effort. 1t Is our own
land OF mystery and enchantment. Of
crumbling ruins ard OF lost races

Three groups Of North American
mammals are generally recognized as
enemies Of the fruit grower and for.
ester. These are pocket gophers. rab-
bits. and short-tailed field mice. Each
Of these does enormous damage. often
amounting to thousands Of dollars up
on a single plantation. In some local
tiles they make the profits from or
charding exceedingly uncertain. OF
the three, pocket gophers infiict losses
fully as great as those caused by
either rabbits or field mice; and since
they work underground. the injury IL
concealed. often until 1t 10 too late for
protective measures.
Pocket gophers. locally known also
as pouched rats, salamanders. tuzas.
or merely gophers. inhabit more than
half the entire territory Of the United
States outside of Alaska and the ISL
and possessions. They occur through
out the greater part Of almost every

dangers for the brave. an unknown
world to conquer and room for all"
In the swift march Of national
events during the past decade. the
development Of the west has focused
the attention Of the world. II nar-
nishes one OF the most inspiring pages
In the annals Of our commonwealth.
It IL . story Of progress and human
achievement-a battle with nature In
her sternest and most forbidding as
pect.
But irrigation has wrought Its mir
acls, and the wealth Of that portion
Of the country which great statesmen
in webster's day were wont to de-
clare worthless Is greater now than
that Of the entire nation In 1860. or
especial interest is the project located
In northern Wyoming.
As the sprinstime showers and
sunshine fall upon the snowy peaks
Of the lofty mountains on the eastern
rim Of Yellowstone park. thousand
streams rush downward to MI to
trimming the swift-nowing Shoshone
river. An important physical change
will occur at such n time. The flood
that once. unchecked and uncon-
troiled. swept madly through the rock
walled gorge. will beat itself to still
ness against a massive wall OF con-
crete with which man has blocked
the canyon. A beautiful lake. 100 feet
deep and covering 10 square miles.
will appear.
In this wonderful cash In the noun
tains. with perpendicular walls thou
sand feet high. the government has
erected the highest dam In the world.
It is a wedge Of concrete 1913 feet
from base to top. Its height can
only be appreciated when compared
with that well.known structure New
York's famous Flatiron building would
reach within ~ feet Of the top Of the
dam. and the tip-top Of the dome
of the United States capitol would
fall 81 feet short Of the parapet.
In the summer. when the crops are
thirsty. the big gates will be opened
and the pent-up floods viii be released
into the river below. Another dam.
a low structure Of concrete. will d.
vert the waters through a tunnel
three ad a quarter miles long into
a canal which for 40 miles passes
along the upper edge OF a broad and
fertile valley containing 10000 acres.
Two years ago It was a desolate
waste. Today It contains more than
200 farm houses and three thriving
towns. Last year 10000 acres pro
duced crops on this project. The bea-
con Of hope shines brightly In the
west. II beckons the landless man to
the manless land.
