Life In the Rockies,

In "A Lady's Life in the Rocky
Mountains" Isabella l.. Bird has Civ
en- us a permanent memorial of West
ern America in the making.
Although all the events-and by the
way, this is a true stOry-happened
more than forty years ago, the sketch
es of life and travel in the Rocky
Mountains arouse an intense desire
to see the places described.
Miss Bird gives us a vivid portrait
of civilization in the making, inter-
spersed with humor and tragedy. The
adventures this lone traveller goes
through hold the attention tightly un-
til the last line of the last page.

mittens he insisted that they be extra

Some of us are afflicted with out
door loneliness. In the midst of
woods and fields we gaze blankly
around with a vision blurred by ig-
norance, obvious to the beauties
among which we live. We think of
outdoor beauty as located in some
Utopian country far away. Let us not

but let US learn to observe more keen

FARM HOMES FOR SOLDIERS
kSamn the Complete
By Hon. y tt
meurwLtr TumAum Cmb

We are spending 50.O0O.O0o Q
day In fighting the Boche, and surely
we can afford to spend few days
war outgo in setting up for life the
men who whip the Boche. We are
planning the reconstruction OF the
men who come back sightless, arm
less, legiess. They will be In our
continuing care. But the men who
come back able for work will not
ask or expect that they be given any
thing more than q fresh chance in
the world. And that chance they
ought to have.
1t will be q profitable arrangement
all around. The money will be adj
vanced by the people. It will be re-
turned by those who take the farms.
The boy from Boston or New York
or Chicago who never has had q
chance at life out of doors, but who
has had land hunger I'm his soul, will
be able to realize his dream.
Kipling wrote a poem after the
Boer War about the man who had
come back from South Africa and
been given job as gardener. Into

that had been his before the war.
I expect hundreds OF thousands Of
city-bred fellows will have this de-
sire for an independent out-of-door
life, and there are already million
men in our army who come OF the
farms, many Of whom will never have
a chance to own a farm unless there
Is some such plan as this.
We have 100000 now and are
asking a.million more at once, so that
the blue prints will be ready against
the day OF the soldiers return.

The man who has gone across or
fs going need not fear for lack Of a
Job at home. This is a big order, but
believe we can make good. Already
the Government has plans under way
which will insure for every man an
opportunity to work at good wages
on his return.
No one can tell how many OF the
old places will be ready and waiting
for the soldiers and sailors when
they have done their bit Over There
and come home; but NO matter how
many there may be there is work t.
be done In the making of America
upon which they can be used with
profit to themselves and to the coun.
try.
They have been doing a destruc-
tive job, and doing 1t well, to the
pride and glory OF our country.
when they come back to us they can
do q constructive Job in the reclaim
OF homes in the United States for
themselves.
This Is big Job, but a simple job.
It il work that must be done some
time, and 1t might AZ well be done
now.
All over the. United States there
are quantities OF lands that are ca
pable OF producing cotton, corn,
wheat and fruit, which are out of
use. Altogether there are perhaps
100000 acres of such lands that
In two or three years, by scientific
drainage or by irrigation or by
stumping could be converted into
first-class farms.
Here, for instance. are some Of the
figures showing the amount Of land
In the South along the rivers. and the
coast that can be made into farm
homes by the expenditure Of little
money and q little labor:
Trench and camp. ([Admiral, Md.) 1917-1919, 1918-11-14

In settlement which has its roads
already built. It will be farm al
ready surveyed, fenced, house and
barn built, the land cleared, so that
a man can move in his furniture and
begin life at once.
= These farms shall be located upon
lands which the Department of Ag-
riculture will approve as suitable for
raising certain crops. They will be
connected with the railroad, If they
are not Immediately on it, by good
roads. They will have centers, little
towns already planned with q good
schoolhOuse up and ready for the
reference to the marketing of the
produce that will be produced upon
them, and they will have the admin
istrative agents of the Government
who will be advisers as to the
methods OF farming and marketing.
In short, each man can have job,
the Government advancing the capt.
tai, and out of the combination Of his
own labor and the Governments
capital he can be given an indepen-
dent living.
But this is not to be done in the
slightest bit as matter OF charity,
nor Is any man to be coerced into
taking up the work. 1t is an oppor-
tunity which the Government out of
appreciation for the fine service rem
dered by its boys gives to them. They
will pay back the money with inter
est, but they can pay it back over a
period of forty years. and no man is
to be confined in his choice to the
project upon which he works. The
man who drains great area in South
Carolina may choose farm in Ari-
IONA or in Idaho.

Training Camps Win Have
A Central Butchering Plant

Plans are under way by the Quar-
termaster Corps for disseminating the
practice In the Army OF issuing beef
in quarters to individual organize
tons and leaving the butchering to
the cook or mess sergeant. Under
the new plan, each camp will have
central butchering organisations.
composed OF butchers who will cut all
meat. This will bring about the elm
ination OF any waste.
By the new methods Of beef cut
ting it Is found possible to train men
to be expert butchers in less than
eight weeks. The new system con-
sists of cutting beef on natural
guides, but 1t is more Of pulling
than cutting process. The guides
are the natural separations between
the muscles, tissues and bones.

OF the West, there are millions of
acres OF land that can be irrigated;
while in the South and in the North
west there are more than O,0OO,-
900 acres of land that have been
logged or, but which are lying idle
today.
The plan which I have presented
to Congress means that we shall put
this land to use. That is where the
country gains. It means that 1t shall
be put into condition by the soldiers
after they have been mustered out.
That is where the soldier gains.
Every man who has been in the
ranks of the Army or the Navy shall
have an opportunity to go on to one
Of these projects and have job at
the current rate OF wages in building
q dam or q ditch or levelfng land or
pulling up stumps, building dikes,
clearing land, building houses or
roads or fences, and that this shall
be done in accordance with the plans
which I hope the Government will
authorize us to make within the next
few months.
This means that when the boy
reaches New York he goes back home
for time, meets his people, and then
is given a chance to take a place in
one Of the great camps that will be
formed for the reclamation Of some
of this unused land.
He gets his wages. Out of these
he will pay certain amount for his
board, save enough in a year and a
half or two years while he is working
to pay a first installment on a farm
anywhere-north, south or west
and have that as his own. It will
be q farm that will be prepared

Per hapa the Wickersham organ in Juneau, the Dispatch, has discovered that the M&loney- -Wicker8ham combination has for it's basis, the prestage of an ALIEN GOVERNOR and so has fallen with tho ruins.
