OF Parajuano Indians In this lagoon
bearing the Spanish names La Boquita,
La Boca del Cano, and El Barro. All
are of the same character, being COM
posed OF detached clusters of houses
well out from the low shore. Man
grove thickets fringe the open water
where they have not been cleared
away for coconut walks.
All Traffic by Canoe.
There is II tide of perhaps two feet
In the lagoon and the houses rise two
or three feet above the high-water
mark. All traffic is by canoe and you
step from the wobbly dugout upon lad
ders rising from the water and find
yourself on shaky platform of small
poles. You are courteously invited TO
enter. The rectangular houses have
light frames and roofs of heavy thatch.
Mats inCloSe the sides and cover p6r-
tionS of the floor. The fireplace is Il
box filled with earth. While you sit
on your heels and eat toasted plantains
and boiled manioc, you see through the
tie scavengcr fishes eager to catch the
crumbs that fall.
Freedom from the insect life that
makes the shores unbearablc may ac-
count for the custom of building
houses out over the water. But IL is an
interesting fact that these lake dwell
ers also have houses upon the arid
plain well back from the thicket-cov-
cred shores. The plain is a dreary
stretch sparsely covered with acacias
and other desert shrubs. The most con-
spicuous of these is the divi-divi from
the seeds OF which valuable dye and
tanning substance is extracted. The
houses In the desert are mere roofs
upon poles and as often as not the
hammocks are swung under an un-
usually large tree. The natives take
evident delight In keeping open house
and i'm living nj fresco.

PAYS FOR 16O
ACRES OF LAND
From the Crop of Wheat on So
Acres in Western Canada.

This story OF paying for your land
out Of one years crop is fully authen-
ticated by a great many farmers in
Western Canada.
And now, all that the farmer makes
IS velvet and you find him going more
extensively into stock raising, for all
authorities agree that In short time
there will be a demand for live stock.
such as even will tax the vast re-
sources OF Western Canada. They
will 20 Into stock raising because OF
the adaptability OF the country 10 pro-
vide food and fodder without feeding
grain If necessary. They will go into
stock and improve their places. They
will install steam and heating plants
In fact, many are now doing It, They
will have automobiles In fact in many
districts there Is not n farmer hut has
one. They will beautify their homes
and erect fine barns until the whole
country will be as attractive as many
OF the counties in the best states in
the Union. But we started ont TO tell
you OF the farmer who paid for 100
acres OF land from the crop of wheat
off OF 90 acres. The Holden district
on the line Of the Grand Trunk Pacific
does not appear to the ordinary OBJ
server 10 be any better than many
other districts along that line. and
probably isn't. II was In this district
that John Larcome, settler, pur-
chased in 1915 100 acres OF raw prai-
rie land. He broke and seeded 53
acres. His crop turned out well, and
ne sold the greater portion Of II for
S2.970. His land cost him S16.50 per
acre. or $3.50. SO that the crop from
the 53 acres paid for the land and left
balance Of over $500, which with
part Of the crop left over would just
pay for the cost OF operation. This
is not really an unusual case, hundreds
OF other farmers In Alberta and Sas-
katchewan having been able to do the
same.
Sales Of land are being reported
from many districts in Manitoba, Sas-
katchewan and Alberta at good prices.
And values are yet low, but with the
flow of any value that will take place
after the war. no doubt they will be
increased. The home
steads in the Park sections which are
to be had actually free are having
the attention Of good class Of set
tiers, who want to go into mixed farm

Holds sroomcorn championship.

Oklahoma raises more brOomcorn
thS~~all OF the rest of the United
States combined. a shortage of the
crop last year in other parts of the
nation stimulated the farmers of Ok
lahoma To add few acres to the area
of 1916. The Lindsay district, in Gar
win county, is the favored spot of the
state. From that section enough

make 100000 brooms.-Daily Okla

to note that bandOleers and belts made
Of long strings Of beads are now worn
under these generous garments. Tat

the face is ordinarily painted with a
large circle upon each cheek connected
by line across the nose. The men

The Sian of Indian Prosperity.

The ownership of a mOtOrcar may
not always be a safe index of material
prosperity, but in the case of John
Lightfoot Of Arizona, ownership OF Il

that the blanket Indian can succeed
at dry farming. Mr.. LlghtfoOt is said

- II IS is a time-honOred story that
relates the origin of the name
Venezuela and one more To be
credited than the majority of
place name anecdotes. When AlOn-
10 de Ojeda, accompanied by the
illustriOus geOgrapher, AmerigO YES
pucci, entered the Gulf Of Mara
caibO In 1899 he found villages
raised on piles above the water.
From this circumstance he gave
the name "Gulf of Venice" TO the shall
low sea inclOsed between the arid pen
insulas of GoaJira and Parajuana.
Those were days of fowery speech and
fervid Imagination the comparison be-
tween Venice the Magnificent and the
homes Of humble fishing Indians in the
new world struck the popular fancy
and soon the whole land was known az
VencZuela-Llttle Venice. The Survlv-
ing pile-built villages north Of the city
Of Maracalbo are still of great inter
est to the ethnOlogist and to the trav-
eler with an eye for the picturesque.

to the Rev. Chas A. Williams, who
preached such great sermon, hAv-
ing never seen her in person, and
Rev. Ward. who spoke SO beautifully
knowing what she did the nine years
he had known, and to the many
friends who SO nobly assisted US in
the many words Of cheer and comfort.
And we also thank you for the
many most beautiful floral offerings
and the great resolutions and the
many acts OF kindness.
We know that our loss is sure
Heavens gain, and though we miss
her greatly, we can rest assured that
she gave her life and services for all
whom she came in contact with, and
Heaven is her reward.
Again we thank you. dear friends.
