Senator Gamble was in Dell
Rapids between trains n day
last week, and made this Office a
friendly call. The editor and
Mr.. ~ Die have been personal
and political friends for nearly
twenty years, and since he was
first elected as a member of Con-
gress in 1895, he has always had
our support, up to the present
campaign. Friendship and per-
sonal association would make it
easy for us to continue that sup
port, but conscientious regard
for the times of things political
as we'll as material has led US to
favor the election Of Mr.. Ster
ling as United States senator in
place of Mr.. Gam Die this time.
The reasons therefor are simply
tie conclusion that Senator
Gamble has not properly repres.
ented the people Of South Dakota
ia the discharge OF his duties at
Washington. We certainly wish
he had, for it would be much
pleasanter all around to continue
the support We have always
heretofore given him without
stint or reckoning Of the cost.
When it was disclosed, just pri.
or to his last election by the
legislature, that he had been
guilty of the very questionable
act, to put it as mildly IS posi-
BILE. OF carrying his son on the

ing other details, when he per-
sistently defends the notorious

In the Canal Zone the total present
crop production barely supplies the SIM
pie needs of the small rural population.
This is estimated at about 10 per cent
of the present population Of the zone.
Aside from scanty supply Of milk from

terminal cities, Colon and Panama, the
products of few Chinese vegetable
gardens near these cities and near some
Of the larger canal construction towns,
the food supply of fully 80 per cent of
the population is all imported. That for
the American population Is brought
chiefly from the United States, though in
part from. West Indian, South American
and European ports. Canned fruits, vege-
tables, fish, meats and butter are largely
used. though these more perishable prod
ucts are supplied In large quantities in

in this region could hardly fail to find

Such variety Of ornamental plants
thrive on this soil that there seems little
doubt that many Of these could be eS-

In the report of the Panama canal COM
mission recently issued much attention is
given the disposition of land In the Canal
Zone. OF the 436 square miles OF land la
the zone, the government owns 363 or
which ninety-five miles are occupied by
the canal. A large part of the govern
ment land will be required for military
and other purposes. Most of the land is
really unsuitable for extensive farming
enterprises. but would undoubtedly pan
out well under the direction of Americans
who would be satisfied with a fair living.
AS It is now, the government wants To
get rid of the great body of foreign labor
ers who were imported to dig the canal.
as soon as the work Is completed. This
cheaper class Of labor, IL. indeed, foreign
ers Of any class will be permitted to take
up ground on the Canal Zone. under any
circumstances.

rendered such a favorable report tnai ne
now proposes TO turn the five-mile strip
OF, land on each side OF the canal into
one big vegetable garden. He intends to
see that the thousands of vessels from
all. Over. the world passing through the
canal will be able TO replenish their stock
OF fresh meats and vegetables when
they reach the isthmus without loss in
travelling time.
For instance. at the present time ves-
sells leaving New York for trip down
the coast any great distance must stop
at one or two places for fresh meat and
vegetables before reaching their final des-
tinatlon. And this viii be even more so
the case with vessels travelling between
European and African ports and Pacific
coast ports of North and south America
via the canal When it Is expected the
vessel VIII pass through the canal about
half way between the home port and its
destination, arrangements win be made
for the taking on of supplies of all kinds
AT either. end of the Panama canal.
With the intention to care for az much
OF this traffic as possible. the govern
Iuent. through its experts In the Depart
ment OF Agriculture. began an inveetiga-
tion about q year ago to determine the
possibilities Of the Canal Zone In an agri-
cultural way. Explorers examined every

lantic The investigation has now reach
ed the stage where 1t can be safely as
serted there are exceedingly bright pros
poets for the building up OF a lucrative
agricultural and stOck-raising industry
along the canal.
In addition to the great quantities OF
fresh meats and vegetables required Tor
steamers passing through the canal. there
win always be q great number Of canal
employees living along the line OF the
canal. The majority Of these employees
will undoubtedly be Of the married per-
suasion, with families and children. and
all these mouths will require vegetables.
Also number of minor industries may
be built up along the canal. which Will
require their quota Of human beings, who
will also require feeding. But aside from
these minor considerations are the vast
number of ships expected to pass through
the waterway, some authorities claiming
the traffic Will be SO heavy as to be one
continuous line of ships from one end OF
the canal to the other during the entire
twenty-four hours.
About a year ago the investigation was
started by the bureau OF soils and the

in the high northern portions Of the re-
public of Panama. Some poultry Is rails
ed by native and canal employees. In
view OF the ruling high prices there is
unquestionably a good opening for rails
ing both pork and poultry. Away from
the noisy activities of canal construction
the depredations of wild animals. such
as the tiger and jaguar, would likely en-
tail some loss in these industries.
Small farming. including the produc-
ton of vegetables and choice tropical
fruits, such as the avocado. manso. pa
paya, pineapple, orange, guava, anona,
etc, can be carried on profitably with the
application of intensive methods coupled

cult banks. During the wet season travel
on foot IS nearly as rapid and often
more comfortable over the trails Of the
steep hill country, where the pathlike
caminos climb and descend steep, rocky
slopes, cross streams flowing through
narrow, gorgelike valleys and wind along
the gentler. though frequently Doggy
slopes. Natives make surprisingly rapid
progress over these difficult trails either
afoot or horseback. Travel through the
dense tropical growth is impossible except
by way Of recently cleared openings.
There is plenty of room for extension
and improvement of the stock-raising in

native grasses, such as those which -four

grazing.
In the latter part Of the dry season
the grasses Of the Canal Zone are gener-
ally so parched that very little susie

cassava,. sugar cane, sorghum. banana
stalks. etc. could be depended upon to
carry stock through the dry months to
the rainy season--the, season of green
grass and other tender vegetation. With
such possibilities for the local production
OF forage crops there is no necessity for
the present relatively large Importation
at high prices Of grain. hay and other
feeds by the few who are operating stock
and dairy farms. At the time Of this sur
vey the price of shelled native corn was
s. gold per eighty-pound sack. while
bran was bringing $3.50 per 100 pounds.
1t is not at all surprising under such con-
ditions that the demand for milk Is SO
much greater than the supply. and that
the prices are exceptionally high. Milk
