THE FUTURE OF THE TROPICS.

Are the tropics, which We're for
ages the seat of powerful oiviliza-
tons and of mighty empires once
more going to become favored and
desirable spots for civilized lnan?.
Col. Gorgas thinks. they will. n a
recent address at John Hopkins
University after describing the'
wonderful reduction in disease .@ul-5
der the sanitary precautions estab-
lished, Col. iorgas speculates on.
the effect Of this demonstration on
our ideas Of the tropics as. a place
OF residence. He says that it is an
established fact that always in the
past the Caucasian has wilted and
died in the tropics. He has found
Int almost impossible to rear Shis
children under. these conditions,
and when he has survived, degen-
crate race has resulted. But here
at Panama force. Of 10000 eau
casians has lived for the past six
years in as good health as similar
!, people live in the healthful parts Of
| the United States. Not only is pa
mama located in the most tropical
portion Of the tropics, but it has
been the most nheaHhful location
| in all the tropics, for the past four
hundred years.
The Caucasian has tried to live
here and use Panama as crossing
place; but he has found it impos-
sible to do so. The toll in life has
been very heavy when he spent lin
the. jungle of the isthmus even the
few days that We're necessary for
the crossing; and when he attempt
| ed to stay longer, as with the
French under De Lesseps, the loss
was appalling. What has made the
| difference between invahdism and
death in the one period, and robust
land vigorous health in the other
period? It is due solely to the fact
that the American authorities have
protected the workers and their IA
milies from disease especially from
| yellows fever and malaria. The eff
fects Of this experiment will be
far reaching. The tropics, at pres
ent, contain much the largest and
most productive portions Of the
earth's surface. A mans labor in
the tropics will bring him in many
times the returns that the same
amount Of labor will produce in the
temperate zone. Heretofore he has
been kept out Of these regions on
account Of the health conditions.
Panama has been known as the
most unhealthful place in the
world, and also as having had car
Tried into execution within its Dor
ders the greatest construction feat
man has ever undertaken. If the
white man can live, work and rear
| "a family under these conditions at
Panama, he can do SO in any other
part Of the tropics. The tendency
will be for man to emigrate to those

way to the ocean. After leaving the top
farms begin to crop into view in every
direction that the eye could glance.
A look back into the past of fifteen
years would show to the observer not
farms and houses but timber as far as
eye could see and that mixed with brush.
All this has disappeared. Now stands
pretty homes and well improved farms
with fat cattle blinking their lazy eyes
at person passing by. But this has
taken years OF work and hard work at
that as the average man can soon see
by the amount Of stumps still standing
in remote corners where the soil can not
be utilized at the present time.
About three miles from the top of the
hill is Harrisburg. At this point which is
surrounded by splendid farms is store
and post office conducted by Mr.. G. J.
Sanders where most OF the necessities
Of life can be purchased at prices as low
as any point on the railroad. Along
this same wagon road distance OF
three miles west is Woodland, the first
post office established after the country
commenced settling and has been handl-
ell ever since by Uncle G. George, whose
son l.. ID. is now engaged in the mercan-
tile business at this point and enjoy
ing a splendid trade from far and near.
A word must be said in regard to just
who has been responsible for such rapid
changes throughout this section and it
is safe to say that the lumber companies
that have been operating in this Sec
ton have done more to furnish capital
by which all the clearing and home
building has been done as they took
timber that otherwise was worthless
and converted it into marketable pro-
duce paying the homesteader money
with which he could purchase necessa-
ries to improve his little farm until it
became self supporting.

that many of the ranchers across the
