the Advancement of Science, as we'll
as honorary vice president of the Brit
ish society of the same name, and Is
also an officer of the Archaeological In
stitute of America.
Miss Fletcher was one of the found
ers. and until very recently acting
chairman of the executive committee
of the American School of Archaeology,
stationed in Santa Fe, N. NJ. This is
one of her latter-day children and she
loves it as she is beloved by it's faculty
and pupils.
Miss Fletcher is the one to whom
the school looks as it's presiding ge-

and beneficial"
The school is now eight years old
and accomplishing a splendid work in
preserving the archaeological treasures
of America. The state of New Mexico
has granted it the use of the old gov
ernor's palace as a school and archeo
logical museum. This unique structure
was erected in 1906, and is itself of
archaeological interest Under the di-
rection of DR.. Edgar L. Hewitt, the

lecture has been renewed in the de-
signing of many of the most important
buildings, and the New Mexico build
ing is a replica of an old Indian pueblo

the life of the aboriginal American In
dams.
Hardly less can be said Of the philan-
thropic side of Miss Fletcher's work
than of the scientific. When she went
to live among the Omahas' she learned
their needs, and she brought those
needs before Congress. So effectual
were her efforts that she secured the
passage of law alloting lands in sew
crafty to the Omahas. and was herself
asked by the government to make the
allotment. This was the forerunner
of the severalty bill, passed five years
later.
She was also instrumental in devising
a system of loaning small sums OF
money to the Indians for the purpose
she has done more than any other one
person to bring Indian children to the
educational institutions provided for
them.
She has urged the Indians to take up
the professions and herself brought out
the first Indian woman physician, Su-
san La Flesche. Miss Fletcher's two
fold aim is to preserve for us and for
the Indians every possible record and
tradition of the passing tribal life. and
to aid and encourage them to the ear

pie of another life and age, other ira

Miss FIetcher's authoritative work
upon the tribal customs of the Omaha
tribe is the large government publica-
the twenty-seventh annual report of the
Smithsonian Institution. AS collabora-
tor in this work she had the assistance
of Francis lie Flesche, son of an ex-ch1ef
of the Omaha tribe, and now connected
with the bureau of ethnology. Mr.. La
Flesche has written many of his early
memories Of the time when the tribal
life was in full sway Miss Fletcher's
book, Indian Civilization and Educa-
tion,'' was the result of a visit to
Alaska in 1856, made at the request OF
the United States commissioner OF
education, to report on the condition
of the native Indians in the direction of
civilization and education. me Hako:

The hako is a religious ceremony

mark in the higher life among the In

prominent societies bestowed upon her.

monially observed and mentioned in
rituals and songs. Corn is referred to
in the ceremonies as Mother breathing
forth life,' and the repetition of this
phrase is not an idle procedure, but an
awakening of echoes in the native
mind of all that corn has meant to the
aboriginals of our land. The bountlful
maize, giving it's life that others may
enjoy life, is here reverently and joy
ously proclaimed Mother.

mo one who has ever seen the In
dians go through the rituals of the
corn, or heard the songs sung by over
a hundred reverent Indians as they
moved among the growing plants could
drawing nearer to nature. 1t was a
wonderful scene that took place upon
the prairies of our country a century
ago, when hundreds of Omahas moved
to the rhythm of their sacred songs
wearing the green sprays as they
danced in their festivals of joy and
thanksgiving"
The games which Miss Fletcher has
preserved through her writings have
been played for untold generations,
while traces of the articles used for them
have been found in the oldest remains
on this continent. Hazard games were
popular, when dice" in various forms
blocks, pottery, beaver and muSkrat
teeth, were used. Guessing games were
liked as a diversion among Indian chill

sive and the president is SO much so
that he is charged with socialism and
has thereby become very unpopular
with a large tclass of the people. In

assassination: and for that reason
spends but little of his time in Monte

nothing has been done to develop them.
Now two biologists have been brought

have taken in hand a systematic geo.

in certain sections and that there are

The country is rolling. 1t is very much
like Illinois or Indiana, and it's rivers
and streams cover it with a network
like the veins of leaf. There are very
few swamps. The land is well drained
and the rainfall is just about right for
grass. Moreover, the climate is one suit
ed to white men. 1t is much like that of
our southern states without the cold
winters. The grass keeps green all the
year around and the cattle and sheep
are turned out to chew for themselves.
There is not a barn in the whole coun-
try, and you may travel hundreds of
miles and not see haystack or feeding
trough.
And still there are f1ocks and herds
everywhere. The country has at least
100000 cattle and 26.000.000 sheep.
There are so many that if they were
vided among the people each family
would have 80 cattle and 250 sheep.
and leave lot of animals over for good
measure. The stock is not as fine as
that of the Argentine, but the country
has been importing fine rams for years
and 1T now brings in as many as 1000
pedigreed sheep in one year. OF late
it has been importing fine bulls and
steady improvement of the stock is
now going on. The chief business of
the country is pastoral. Out of 42,OOO,-
600 acres of land there are. less than
100000 in wheat, and the corn crop
covers only one-half million acres. The
chief cereals are wheat, corn, oats and
linseed, but the farming is not we'll
done and the yield per acre is far be-
low that of our country. Uruguay
raises some fruit, and 1t is now ship
ping grapes and wine to the Argentine.
And just here 1 want to put in a
warning to Americans who think they
can come to this region, and make for
tunes with little work and small capi-
tai. This is not a land for the poor
man of our country. The land is held
in large blocks and the American min
lister tells me that ii is worth almost
as much as good land in the states.
There has been a great imitation of
prices, both here and in Argentina in
the past few years. and good lands that
are accessible to the railroads are
bringing as much as $50 per acre. The
times are hard and the lands will prob
ably slump, but one would need big
