Story of a Cowboy War.

when Cattle Kingdom Fell" new
novel by J. r. Stafford, tells of the
struggle between homesteaders and
rangers for possession of vasts of land
in Texas. II might be called a war be
tween these parties, so numerous are
the gunplays by cowboys and so many
are the persons who lose their lives in
the struggle. The climax is reached
in mob scene with loss of life.
The cowboy story is kept somewhat
above the commonplace. however
through mystery with which Mr.
Stafford surrounds his characters. The
reader is seldom able to be certain of
the motives behind the acts. The her
oine is daughter of a family which
from Missouri Occasionally
the thread loops back to Kansas City
and Missouri. The father of the author
the dedication states. had a lifelong
interest and success in the cattle bus
mess and the author has obtained
from him the material from which
the tale is drawn.

THE ROOSEVELT DAM.

The New York Evening Post humOr-
ousIy remarks: And while the dogs
of war are straining at their leashes,
he must content himself with dedica,
ting an irrigation DAM
Though he is sometimes consider.
ed as having a liking for things mill
tary, all his military feats put together
will not equal the ore event of dedicat-
ing the Roosevelt dam at Roosevelt,
Ariz.,-one of the greatest on earth.
BY virtue of this dam the spring
floods rushing from the mountains
down Salt River will be utilized to
make fertile 2OO,O 900 acres of hitherto
desert land On its way down from
the artificial lake-said to be the larg-
est in the world-the water will be
made to supply power to pump more
water.
These 100000 acres of reclaimed
land will produce far more than an
equal tract of ordinary land that de-
pends on rain for its moisture. In the
future. this tract will support minia-
ture nation. This great work is only
a part of the government reclamation
project and is a monument to the sue

the dam.

Devil Coal Miner

The grind of the print shop, with its

nous routine work was too much for
Little" Tom Smith. A year as devil
with a raise to $3.50 per--not day
per week or perhaps! An under
sized, ordinary American 16-year-old
boy with proverbiai freckles, tattered
clothes, and dirty face. didn't wait for
the Fourth OF July to declare his indie
pendence. He was "a-gOin' to make
money" and in the small town of
Good Plains. that meant 10 lead the
supposed easy life of a coal miner. who
worked eigh. hours a shift---and two
shifts at that--didn't have to keep
clean. and who had lots of fun digging
"dusky 1iamonds," as a labor agitator
had expressed it.
"Biggun,' the older brother listened
to the mercenary Little Tom" and
agreed 20 take MIN in as Il buddy
That meant being real coal miner. 1t
also meant IN this case being a small
shareholder in large mining partner
ship.

coarse blue shirt, heavy, nailed shoes
and white pit cap with brown card
board attachment for the lamp decora-
ted an eager and anxious young dig

biting winter wind fiumbed the fingers
which held the dinner buckets. A two
mile walk tc the shaft stretched out
and seemed to continue as the two
brothers stumbled over the frozen
ground At last. the lead house LOOM

ures came from the network of paths
which ran in varied directions to the
mine.

INTIMACY OF SILENCE.

To the Belgian poet, Maeterlinck, is
credited the idea that We cannot know
each other until we dare to be silent
together.
Anyone who has ever had new &C.
quaintance ripen into close friendship
must realize the truth of this-and
that means everyone. Who has not
experienced the strained feeling of
trying at all hazards to keep up con-
versation with a stranger, talking of
everything from the distance TO Alpha
of Centaur to the best time to SOW
turEip-seed?
When fuIl acquaintance and friend
ship have once been established, con-
versation becomes free and easy and
there is a communion even if the par
ties are disposed to walk while to-
gether in silence.

THE EXPERIMENT STATION.

The Missouri Agricultural Expert
ment Station is an organization with
which University students in general
have slight acquaintance because they
have little occasion to come in con-
tact with it.
Probably no work at the University
touches more vitality and more direct
ly the industrial life of Missouri. 1t
helps to bring about better conditions
of living in the state because through
it's investigations, it aids the farmers
state because through its investiga-
of the state to increase their wealth
with less labor and at the same time
with less injury to the soils fertility.
1t is entirely fitting that this import
ant work should have the government
support it has, that it should be under
the control of such body as the Cura-
tors of the University of Missouri, that
its advisory council should he the Mis-
souri, State Board of Agriculture, and
that its Director should be the efficient
Dean of the College of Agriculture.

Robert Kimberly IS known as the
homely Mr.. Kimberly" although no
one would suspect II from the illustra-
tiOns by James Montgomery Flagg.
Robert Kimberly has force and ener-
gy and never bores the reader by mac
tivity. Although his work in the last
chapters differ from that of the pre-
|ceeding ones, it is met in the same
way that characterizeS Robert Kim

slight difficulty which the reader ex-
periences in remembering the large
number of persons introduced in the
first chapter. the action proceeds un-
hampered. The story is told in easy
style, and the conversation is natu-
raj.
