Land Bulletin No. l. a pamphlet

Missouri Pacific-Iron Mountain rail-
road The aim of the colonization de-
partment is to build up the territory
traversed by the lines of the COM

will be issued periodically, is for the
purpose of putting in touch, at as lit
tie expense as possible, the man who
is seeking land in the west, south

obtainable and suitable for the pur-
poses desired The Land Bulletin con-
farming lands that are for sale in the
territory served by the Missouri-Pa-
cifIc-Iron Mountain lines
The field men of the colonization
department of the railroad keep in
close touch with conditions in the
ciaIy as regards the possibilities of
locating settlers Whenever a partic-
ularly attra ctive land bargain is found,
it is al once reported to headquarters
price asked, amount and condition of
equipment. adaptabiliCy of the soil for
the production of different crops and
all other facts that might interest
prospective purchasers are obtained
and later appear in the Land Bulletin.
The paper is given wide circulation,
and whenever an inquiry is received
concerning farming lands listed in the
publication, the owner or agent of the
property and the prospective pur-
chaser are placed in communication
through correspondence Many sales
are brought about in this way and the
railroad is eventually benefited
through freight and passenger earn
ings, which are necessarily increased
by additional settlers in the territory
served by its lines

EDITORIAL NOTES
BY j. d. WATSON

{ ME year OF the European war has passed,
- and the situation IS practically what it
was months ago-Germany waging an ag-
gressive campaign that has gained her some
temporary advantage without bringing her
any success.
While the Teutons have driven the Rus
SLAMS from Gallcia, have continued their
drive on through Poland to Warsaw, and
taken the ancient capital, they have COM
petely failed In tehir two main detectives.
Germanys two great detectives were to
nulllfy France, as an active foe, and then
crush Russia, but both of these have failed
While the German armies are on French
soil, the Kaiser is further from Paris than
he has been at any time since the outbreak of
the war, and while the German army has
taken Warsaw, and the Russians are in re-
treat, many military critics believe that the
German drive into Russia will hasten defeat
for the Germans that the biggest mistake
the Kaiser has made was to stretch his lines
so far into a country that he can never hope
to conquer.
The simple fact that the Germans are
fighting IN the enemies country means little,
because there is to be considered the great
cost IN men and resources paid for this tenn
porary advantage, and to a cool outsider it
looks like the German military authorities
nave HlduS uIateu Il cdlupdISn IllaC Will re-
suit in a catastrophe
Every man lost to Germany now is a seri-
Gus loss-Germany cannot afford to sacrifice
a single soldier, while the allies have mil
lions that they can yet put in the field and
IN the long run this resource viii be the
allies greatest
Germanys hope was in quick success, and
when the German armies were thrown back
in their great drive for Paris GeT'many's
best chance for victory was shattered.
Germany's position now is very similar to
that Of the South during the Civil War, and
as time drags along it will become more APP
parent to the German people that their
fight is a hopeless one and that their country
has been thrown back at least quarter Of a
century, simply because a crazy "me and
God" military tyrant imagined himself an
other Frederick the Great
The most ssinine proposition ever made is
