LiUe Stock Problems of the Great Plains:
HoW to Make Most Out of the Arid Soil

into marketable form. In the plains coun-
try the same system may be followed
with profit The grains produced In the
plains reEion are suitable FOR fattening
sheep. and since these lands lie on the
direct route between the range and the
central markets sheep can be fed 60 ad-
vantage. In much OF this region the val
leys are the great sources OF alfalfa hay.
and this furnishes an additional reason
for study OF the feeding problem.
The great plains. region has long been
known as the home OF the sheep, whore
large bands have been run at a profit.
but Is equally profitable to keep smaller
flocks where the land is under system
OF cropping and the rcsiducs are to b.
Rleaped by the flock. Throughout the
Dakotas, and to a limited extent In Ne
hraska, rape is sown as a secondary crop
with small grain and the aftermath Is
pastured. following the harvest OF tho
grain. for by this means crop residues
may be utilized which would otherwise he
wasted grass may be gathered at a
profit.
Let no man think that the price Of live
stock will materially decrease through
our efforts to increase production. We
will be fortunate indeed &c we are able to
increase production so that II will keep
pace with the demands Of our increasing
population.
There Is no necessity for the price Of
meat becoming excessive II we will utilize
the resldues which are now wasted on
cur farms and convert them into meat
products.
The prosperity OF the plains region will
depend upon the adaptation OF the agri-
culture praotioed to the natural lmita-
lions OF the region. Some OF this agri-
culture win be intensive, with irrigation
and valuable money crops, like the sugar
beet. Wherever possible, alfalfa will he
a standard crop because of Its drouth
resistance, its high money value and its
enrichment of tho soil throughout the
entire region live stock should fill an Inn
portant place In the system OF manage

BOSTON HOTEL FIRE
AIIston Apartment Inmates
Trapped in Beds-loss Is
100000.

| BOSTON. April 14.-Seven persons met
| death and another is missing as the
| result OF a savage fire which raced
| through the fashionable Hotel Melvin
| in Allston early today and trapped the
inmates almost in their beds. The
flames surged UP through the thirty
| kitchenette APARTMENTS witi inconceiv-
able rapidity and drove others to small
balconies. whence fear forced them to
leap to death or injury on the pave
ment below.
The dead:
BEMIS. MRS. f. G.

Mrs. Bemis.

The missing-Irene Hazel
The injured-Mrs. Robert Adams, c.
w. Rogers. Minnie e. Reed.
Flames Spread Rapidly. "
The fire was one of the most spec
tacular in the history OF Boston apart
ment house horrors. The flames spread
so rapidly that none Of the inmates
had time to remove any OF their pos
sessions or even to warn the others.
Many. leaping from bed at the crack
ling of the flames and the rush of
smoke, ran panic-stricken to the stairs,
only to find them hopelessly blocked.
Horrifed spectators on the outside
could see men and women screaming
piteously for help from the balconies,
their figures s,lhoueted against the
surgfng flames behind. r,...
In the midst Of the general horror,
a rope Of sheets was thrown out of
a fourth story window and a wom-
ans form was seen to trust itself to
It
Hand by hand she let herself down
to safety. falling unconscious at the
bottom. 1t was Mrs. Robert Adams.
Then Mrs. Edith Bemis endeavored
to follow She lost her hold when
only just started and fell to the pave
ment below, turning over in her fall
and crushing her skull. Many others
jumped or were rescued by firemen.
Ragged For Two Hours
Not for two hours were the firemen
able to force their way into the fur
nacelike building. Then on the fifth
floor we're found the bodies of a man,
