WESTERN MAN WILL
Be GIVEN REQ HAT
DIR. BEI,GNI SAYS POP. pIIS IS
GREATEST .ADMIRER OF THIS
OuNTl;Y EVER IN THAT
CHAIR.

New York City.-sDr. Erncs,o Beg
hi. editorial director OF the Catholic
Church In The United States. ex-
pressed the belief TO-DAY that the West
will shortly be able to fe!icitate with
the East on the elevation of one of
its notable ecclesiastics to the Col
ilege of Cardinals.
IF those who have expressed some
because no member
of the American hierachy from the
IWestern States, was selected to be
Iisonored at the. co.s.;story at Rome.
said DR. Bengi. will have little pa
.tience. they will soon share with the
East in the signal honor that has
been bestowed upon it by His Holt
inesness. The Holy Father is keenly
sensible OF conditions in this country
'both East and West.
Il am satisfied no honor With
which Plus X can signify his appre-
,ciation of what has been accomplish
ed here by the Faithful, will in his
opinion be too great. Blu, many con-
Editions have to be considered in lhe
selection of q cardinal and His Hol-
mess has necessarily to move slowly.
The Pcntitf' continued Dr. Beg
M, is the greatest a6mirer of this
country who ever occupied the chair
|of st. Peter On my last audience
with him he expressed himself as
amazed and delighted with the
achievements of the Church here.
These have been a source of consola-
tion to His Holiness and have done
much to soften the grief caused him
by the discordant conditions pre-
vailing in other parts OF the world.
America is now regarded as one OF
THE great sustaining forces OF the
Church. The many proofs OF its 10y
!alty TO the Holy See and the vitality
iof its Institutions. which now claim
] 5000. 900 active communicates
moves the head of the Church to ac-
cord the United States a measure OF
recognition never before shown ii
by the Vatican.

IRRIGATION GROWS
RAPIDLY IN Staten.
THE CENSUS SHOWS
.0ver 100000 Acres
Under Water Dur
ing 1910
LOW ANNUAL COST
South Dakota Makes Really
Best Record In West
on This
LOW ANNUAL COST

Pierre, $. D.-The census reuor,
.oi 1910, on irrigation, places the to-
tai irrigated territory in South Da-
kota for that year at 2Ol,6S acres.
an increase from 63 900 acres in
1903. The increased interest in ir-
risation caused by the dry season of
l9ll, has largely increased the irri-
gated area since the $40 census re-
turns We're secured. and the acreage
IS now probably near 300. 900 for this
state. One feature OF the irrigation
figures which will be of more than
ordinary interest in that the annual
cost per acre for irrigation in South
Dakota is GA cents an acre, which is
lower than for any OF the other west
ern states which engage at all extern
sively in irrigation. Oklahoma is
few cents lower but with only very
limited area under cultivation in this
manner. The annual cost in North
Dakota is put at S3.7S per acre: in
at s3.1S; in Wyoming ut
GS cents, and in Montana at SO cents.
The average cost per acre for get
ting land under irrigation in the
northwest states is placed at Slo.76.
with South Dakota standing at
S23. SO. the lowest being Nevada at an
average Of $1.93: while Arizona is
S45.53
One OF The features Of irrigation IN
this state from this time on will be
that OF the small tract on numerous
farms, on which water can be placed
at a small expense either by storage
dams, or pumping from wells with
WING engines, such tracts to be used
principally for the raising of vegeta-
bles. This work was taken up by a
number of land owners last summer
when the crop condition generally
looked bad. and the attention devot-
ed to these small garden spots under
the care which was given them has
shown the farmers who tried the ex-
pertinent that they have opportuni-
ties in that line which will pay them

MEM PENSION BILL Is
SURE TO PASS CONGRESS-.
Washington. ID. ADVOCATES of
increased pensions for veterans OF the
civil war battled ON the loor OF the
fight TO pass the Sherwood 'dolar-a
day" pension bill The debate will
continue today and Tuesday with
the deciding vote on the measure late
Tuesday afternoon.
There were few opponents of the
increased pension. The contest lay be-
wood bill, which establishes Il PEN
sion based on length of service. and
the advocates of the Sulloway age
tension bill which was passed by the
house last spring, but failed in the
senate.
Pension Provided in Bill
The Sherwood bill would grant ST >
Il month to those who served more
than 80 days but less than six months,
$50 month for service UP TO nine
month. $40 Il month for service UP TO
one year and $50 for service OF more
than a Year. No pension is 10 be all
lowed veterans who have incomes eX-
ceeding $1,000 a year. The Sulloway
bill. which probably will be offereGl
as substitute or amendment to the
Sherwood bill before the vote is final
ly taken. provides Il maximum pen
sion of $50 per month at the age of
70.
Strenuous objection was made to
the provision that an income Of ST.
900 should make veteran ineligible
for pension Those opposed to it de-
clared it would penaliZe thrift =
General Sherwood declared it was de-
signed not us an honor TO eN-soldiers
