PROTECTING HIS MONEY

Gyoke Sarati, Serbian, slayer. Of
Djoko Cvajin, a countryman, in cut
ting ARRAY on the South Side Febru-
airy II, was acquitted by a jury in
criminal court, Judge Sears presiding.
The killing resulted from dispute
over a bucket Of beer, according to
the testimony of Sarati, who admitted
that he cut Cvajin's throat. He
pleaded self-defcnse.
The Serbian, when he took the wit
ness stand, through an interpreter
gave vivid account of the death
grapple under an arc light at Twenty
ninth and R streets, a block from the
notorious South Side spot known as
"The Bloody Corner" where many
murders have occurred.
Sarati testified that he had nearly
5000 in gold in his pocket, which he
was afraid Cvajin was trying to rob
him of. He told of how, when they
were rolling in the street, each strivI
ing to choke the other, he Grew a
knife from his pocket and nearly sew

can do almost anything that railroads

In addition to the lands in recla-
nation projects that are not culti-
waited because OF difficulties of owner
ship there are great areas in small
holdings which have not yet been
made productive because the farmers
have not yet gotten around to it or
because they are unable to employ the
necessary labor. These lands the In
terror department hopes to get culti-
waited by pointing out to the farm
ers the necessity for doing the work
at once and for organizing to do it.
Secretary Lane wants war mainte-
nance corps" organized upon every
project for the purpose of seeing that
every arabic acre is used and that
farm labor is organized so as to at
tain the highest possible efficiency.
Already in many parts of the west
it is customary for the farmers to
organize and do their harvesting in
cooperative way. going in great
gangs from one farm to another, US
ing the same Keepers and binders and
other machinery OH each. This same
method is to be applied to planting
and all the other processes Of culti-
walton and the organization is to be
carried still farther. The farmers are
urged to get all the gang plows, har-
rows and seeders that they possibly
can, to organize corps to operate
them, just as field pieces are oper-
ated in battle. This will develop ef-
fciency and corp spirit and will make
it possible 10 put the maximum
amount Of labor-saving machinery

unit in an organization equipped with
the best OF modern labor-saving ma
chinery can do as much as twenty

The West Wakes Up
By Frederic j. Husk,n

Of increased food production is con-
sidered labor and transportation pre-
sent the two great difficulties. Off
Gals of the Interior department are
proceeding on the assumption that
these difficulties will be overcome. En-
listment Of men to work in the fields
is certainly way Of solving the la
Dor problem and they do not be-
lieve that food will be allowed to
rot on the ground this year for lack
of means OF transportation. American
railroads have shown before what
they can do in an emergency. When
the Colorado river broke its banks
and threatened TO drown the wealth
of the Imperial valley Of California,
for example, the Southern Pacific rail-
road showed that it was mghtier than
the food Every bit OF its rolling
stock was put into service carrying
rock to dam the torrent. Passenger
service was stopped for time, it is
true, and most of the best building
stone in the city OF Los Angeles was
carried away and dumped in the path
of the river. But millions OF dollars
worth OF property were saved from
destruction.
The production Of food in the
United States is now being stimulated
in every possible way and unless
means OF transportation are found
millions of dollars worth Of it will
rot OH the ground. But those means
can and must be supplied. Our i'm
mense motor'industry and our greatly
improved road system will ably sup
plement the railroads in this work. In

Washington, May 5.--A recent tele-
gram to the Office of the reclamation
service here states that over 5000
has been raised by the farmers on
the reclamation project at Grand
Junction, Colo, to buy seed for the
planting OF all hitherto uncultivated
lands on the project. The farmers at
Carlsbad. n. NJ. have already COM
pleted arrangements for the use of

the Sacramento valley, farmers on the
Orlando project have made arrange
ments to cultivate about 1000 acres

whom it IS against the law for the
government to furnish water for irri-
CATION. The Interior department, as
war emergency resolution, has
promised 10 deliver the water Tor
whatever land is gotten ready for
cultivation this year.
Similar arrangements have been
made on the Williston and Lower
Yellowstone irrigation projects, and
these are only few Of he instances.
Farmers on nearly every government
reclamation project in the west are
making united efforts. in response TO
the appeal of Secretary of the In

every acre of land which can be irri-
ted.
Last year there were 100000 acres
OF land on government reclamation
projects for which the reclamation
service was able TO supply water for
irrigation, but only 958.000 acres were
actually under cultivation. There are
therefore nearly 100000 acres of
lands, most Of them very fertile, which
are ready to be cultivated, every APP
pliance for irrigation being supplied,
but which are yielding nothing, Sec
rotary Lane estimates that these lands
would produce $l5,000,00O worth Of
food in single year.
It is plain that this unused land
affords one OF the easiest and most
direct ways Of increasing our produce
ton OF foodstufs. OF course. there
are uncultivated lands in almost every
county in the United States, but most
Of these lands are poor. or for some
other reason difficult to till. The re-
clamation lands, on the other hand,
are rich ifgin soil, ,ditched and ready
to be irrigated.
There are various reasons why
these lands have not been cultivated
before. Their ownership in large hold
ings or by ronresidents, which makes
it illegal for the government to sup
ply the water, is one OF the most inn
portant. The Interior department has
already taken measures I, get around
this difficulty, and bill drawn by
Representative Taylor OF Colorado tc
legalize these measures, and to make
the cultivation OF these unused lands
a certainty. This law authorized the
government TO supply water for irri.
cation wherever it can until Decem,
Der, 1920. 1t also empowers the sec,
rotary of the interior to lease public
lands within reclamation projects; te
have public lands cultivated by con,
tract; and finally as war measure
If he cannot secure the cultivation o.
private lands in any other way, to tax,
them over and have them cultivated
by government forces.
This last Is the most interesting
| provision Of the bill. From the wa,
the westerners are responding to thu
secretary's appeal it does not seen
probable that it will be necessary t
take over these lands because of an,
unwillingness on the part Of the PEG
pie to cultivate them, but it does seen
