while modern sanitation can
solve the question of labor for the
development Of the tropics, / doubt
il such enterprise would be worth
while under prevailing systems of
land ownership. The worker and the
consumer would benefit little, if any,
by abundant production. The land
owner would get the lions share.
Low wages in themselves create
problems Of sanitation. Feudal con-
ditions Of land tenure in the tropics
are quite as responsible for disease
as Is the climate. If | were to pre-
scribe the best sanitary measure for
any locality, would say to double
wages. A tax on land values big
enough to prevent land speculation
and stop individuals and corpora
tons from getting rich out of ground
rents, is the best means that can
suggest to increase the workers

The little babbling brook was slowly
drying up. Everybody in the pleasant
meadow was very worried, and the
little people WHO lived in the bright
waters OF the babbling brook were even
more worried. 1t was just like having
ones house pulled down while living
in it. You see, as the water became
more shallow there were some parts OF
the little brook that were hardly COW
cred with water, and 1t was only in the
deep places that the little fish and
crabs were able to swim at all.
And the cause of all this was Bobby
Beaver. Yes, sir, Bobby Beaver was
.1ailding a dam across the babbling
brook.
somehow or another he knew that
winter was coming, when the baboiinS
brook would be frozen over. So Bobby
had made up his mind that he would
build . dam acrnss {. RI form a little
pond where the water would be too
deep to freeze clear down to the bottom
Then Ill leave little opening In

when il gets high enough, said Bobby
