ably produce one thousand million
bushels of wheat. They can con-
sumo but small fraction Of it
What, then, will they do with it!
Where trade it?
To the north the aurora borealis
offers fine color display, but no
market for wheat. In the west,
1000 miles of ocean and the i'm
poverished millions of Asiatics
offer but small fraction of the
necessary market, and rice is a
serious competing foodstuff. To
the east England buys from all
the world about two hundred mil
lion bushels of wheat for her own
population, while the rest of Eu-
rope will buy not much more than
that. This means that the ever
growing population of the United
States, just next door to the south
of that vast granary, and with the
greatest per capita consumption
OF wheat in the world, is the proper
market.
But this great market for mo. |
hard spring wheat" to mix with
the other wheats to bring the flour
up to grade, is separated from
Canada by an invisible political
line and tariff. This shuts that
vast country off from her natural
market on the one hand and pre-
vents her from buying goods at
reasonable prices from the most
highly organized and specialized
industrial market on the other.
The condition cannot last.
II Canada were like the United
States, little world within her
self as to variety of soil, climate
and industry, she might get along
in spite of tariff, as we have done
for more than one hundred years.
But no such advantages obtain

PROGRESS OF TERRACE
RESERVOIR DISTRICT

The Terrace Reservoir district.
covers some 10000 acres. The
district acquired the La Jara creek,
and have just completed the Ter
race reservoir on Alamosa river.
The Terrace reservoir has been
constructed by washing an i'm
mense hydraulic dam from the
hillsides into the canon of the
AIamosa river, damming that
stream back for distance of four
miles, giving capacity of more
than 10000 acre feet of water.
The two reservoirs will supplement
the natural spring and early sum-
mer flow of the two streams, which
is quite dependable, and furnish
reliable water rights for some 49,
GOO acres Of good land. The cost
OF these water rights will be in the
neighborhood of 800 per acre,
which will be in the form of
twenty-year bonds. Lands under
this system can now be bought at
from $40 to $50 per acre. The
construction of proposed sugar
beet railway across the valley will
put this land in close touch with
transportation Fertile Lands of

SOCIALISM IN
MYRIAD FORMS

The socialist movement in this
country and the world must be
taken notice of during the cam
paign of 1912.
j. L. Engdale writes of the
movement and objects as follows
During the last ten years social
ism has grown from an almost
ignored to the most noticed factor
in the political life Of the nation.
1t has given the great mass of
toilers an inspiration and the or
ganized labor movement pur-
pose.
1t is the factor that will mould
the myriads of nationalities that
have come to these shores into
one great nation.
1t is a force that is now being
felt in city, state and nation, where
decade ago it formed practically
no part in the political structure
Of the nation.
Its progress is being noted by
all the civilized world where it was
formerly unnoticed because of it's
backwardness.
1t is offering true note of
Christianity to the churches that
are making new martyrs by the
exiling and accommodation of
those among the clergy who have
been converted to its doctrines.
1t is lending new color to the
student life in the schools and
colleges, to art, literature and the
professions.
1t is coming forward as the true
champion of woman to strike off
the shackles that have fettered her
for ages.
1t is shaping the new education
of the children.
1t has created and given life to
press that is dedicated to the
struggle Of labor and opposed to
the subsidized press of capital.
Every phase of life has felt its
rejuvenating touch. The inspira-
ton thus given is returned result
ing in socialist movement rapidly
growing in vitality and proper
tions.

The lawyer who sees the rich

CHEAPEST AND
BEST INSURANCE

The Rio Grande Reservoir and
Ditch Company is now prepared
to enter into contracts with water
users under the Rio Grande Canal
for reservoir water. This means
insurance against crop failure to
the farmer who will avail himself
OF this opportunity to secure stor-
age water to be used at such times
,as the river supply is insufficient
by reason of low water, to meet his
demands.
These reservoir rights are offered
on very easy terms.
The Colorado Valley Land Com
pany is again in the market for
the sale of lands and has arranged
with the Reservoir Company for
reservoir water to go with such
lands.

1000 TO MARRY.

The entire tribe of Winnebago
Indians has decided to get married.
In formal tribal council, in which
every man on the reservation partici-
pated, the Indians voted to forsake
the ways of their fathers and to
marry in the white mans way. Now
the Indians are preparing for the
greatest marriage" ever known.
As soon as the arrangements can be
made about 1000 couples of Indians
will stand up at the altar at the same
time and in the same ceremony.
When the big wedding is over the
Winnebagos expect to be the richest
tribe in. the West.
Some time ago the government be-
gan allotting farm to each Winnie
bago. Then arose the question of
land for the children. And further,
to whom did the children belong2 1t
was an almost superhuman task to
which The government agents set
themselves. But the work finally was
completed and each Indian received a
farm. However, there remained a
tremendous large amount of what is
termed "heirship" land and there was
a question as to just whom this land
belonged. The wiser Indians dis
cusSed the matter with the mission
aries, the Indian agent, and with
lawyers in Omaha. 1t was settled
that the only remedy lay in marriage
according to the state law.
