The Russian department of agricul-

swamp cultivation. The North Pc

with great success in the desert

proved that the swamps of the Arch

that millions of peasants, devoured
by poverty and hunger in their native
places, can find food and shelter in
the swampy regions after their Guilt

behind him ragged a snow storm that

Kama completely. In the morning he

Daylight cast about for a trail. and
found one leading down the side
opposite to his ascent Circling the
base of the knoll, he picked up with
his horse and rode on to the farm
house. Smoke was rising from the
chimney, and he was quickly in con-
versation with a nervous, slender
tenant on the ranch. How large
! was it? A matter of one hundred and
eighty acres, though it seemed much
larger. This was because it was so
irregularly shaped. Yes, it included
the clay-pit and all the knobs, and its
yon was over mile long. Oh, yes,
he and his wife managed to scratch
living without working too hard.
They didn't have to pay much rent
Hillard, the owner, depended on the
income from the clay-pit. Hillard was
well off and had big ranches and vine
yards down On the fiat of the valley.
The brickyard paid ten cents cubic
yard for the clay AS for the rest of the
ranch, the land was good in patches,
where it was cleared, like the vege-
| table garden and the vineyard, but the
rest of 1t was too much up-and-down.

up with him. 1t was Hogan who guided
Daylight through the intricacies of
modern politics.. labor organization,
and commercial and corporation law.
1t was Hogan, prolific of resource and
suggestion, who opened Daylight's
eyes to undreamed-of possibilities in
twentieth-ceTtury warfare; and it was
Daylight, rejecting, accepting. and
celebrating, who planned the cam
paigns and prosecuted them. With the
