ure this is due to the fact that much
land is either held in large tracts or is
farmed to crops that demand large
acreage.
The laborers on these plantations and
elsewhere frequently live in houses
which they own, but which are built
on leased land. Agricultural workers
seldom own both house and land, and
it is the exception rather than the rule
selves. They live largely ON food i'm
ported into the island, chiefly rice and
beans and Goldfish.
The new homestead law provides
that the government may sell to de-
serving labOrerS tracts of land for
farming purposes not to exceed five
acres each or tracts for dwelling pur-
poses not to exceed 500 square meters,
the, labOrers to have from eleven to
thirteen years to pay for the land,
which is to be tax free until finally
paid for.
In order to be of assistance to the
most needy the law provides that no
one may become an applicant who
earns more than $500 year or who is
not married or who does not have a
family to support. The law also pro-
vides that for a period Of seven years
those taking the small farms must cul-
tivate them under the supervision Of
the homestead commission
So that the hOmesteader may become
the ultimate owner of the land the law
provides that the homestead may not
be taken for debt and it may not be
transferred to another except under
regulations established by the commits
sion. If homesteader dies his heirs
may assume the obligation Of paying
for the property and obtain title to it
when the property has been completely
paid for.
The only obligation which the home.
steader takes upon himself is that
within one year after he comes into
possession Of a five acre farm he must
build shack of value Of at least $50
and have at least one-third Of the land
under cultivation within two years.
From the third to the thirteenth year
he must pay to the government annu-
ally sum equal to 10 per cent Of the
assessed value of the property, and he
must live upon 1t for at least period
Of five years. In the event that these
conditions are not complied with, the
property reverts to the government, to
be again disposed OF by the homestead
commission.

Following is a simple way to test
the purity of water: Put half a pint
In perfectly clean bottle and add
few grains of lump or loaf sugar.
Make tight-a glass stopper pre-
ferred. Place the bottle in a warm,
we'll lighted room. If it remains clear
after an exposure of eight or ten days
1t Is safe to use, but If 1t becomes tur-
bid it is certainly impure and unsafe

sea water is allowed to rush through
