Reclaiming Waste Lands.

At the close of the Civil War
the United States possessed a

Many Of the soldiers. accustom-

of the land In large numbers
they took up government claims
and devoted themselves to a farm

Our great army. also coming
back from vigorous out Of door

Secretary Lane, realizing that

wisely proposes thereclamation
of waste lands owned by the

coming farmers or fruit-growers.
The secretary states that there
are over two hundred million
acres of waste land in the United
States capable of such transfor-
NATION They consist of Grid
lands requiring irrigation for fer

drainage. and cut-over forest
areas. needing further clearing.
Bringing these lands to useful
ness would require a large ex-
penciture OF money, but under
good administration would give
an immediate opportunity for

vide many thousands of soldiers
with their own farms.

The Wheat Acreage.

The federal department of ag-
riculture reports an increase of
G, 726, 600 acres. or nearly 16 per
winter wheat sown this fall above
the acreage sown in the fall of
1917. ,
With conditions reasonably
favotable, the yeald of winter
wheat next year is forecast as 765,
600. 600, bushels, which is 80, 00O-
600 more than the highest record
When the government called
upon the farmer last year for an
increased acreage of wheat the
response was beyond expectation
1t is difficult to over estimate the
effect which the magnificent
wheat crop of 1918 had toward
the winning of the war.
Facing the necessity of greatly
increased exports in the coming
year, our farmers have az ain
shown their patriotic spirit b
providing for a larger wheat
harvest in 1919.
The American farmer merits
the respect and honor Of his
country.

Sincerity in Business

Some peoples idea Of a busi-
ness deal Is two men, face to face
each suspicious of the other. each
endeavoring to gain an advantage
by preyarication. each making
statements incorrect up to near
Misrepresentation.
That notion of business acumen
is derived faom the old horse
dealing system. where no one ex-
pecte6 the truth to be told, and
the best man was he who could
work off horse with the most
imperfections
In every community there are
men whose word IS as good as
their bond. No statement Of
theirs is ever questioned, and the
man dealing with them is sure of
meeting fairness.
These attributes, Joined with
good judgment, outfit the sue
cessful business man. Perhaps
he does not get the reputation OF
being IAN awful smart fellow. !"
but time brings him better one.
,nar of a man who his fellow cit
izens can always trust for honor
and fair dealing.
