Soldiers and Banana GROWING.

The New South Wales government
has not been long in providing it's re-
turning soldiers with work. One Of
the enterprises undertaken with this
object is the cultivation Of bananas
on large scale There is no fruit
crop that yields such a quick return
as the banana and in the present
fiourishing state Of the market no
better undertaking could have been
selected, given the right men. 1t IS
not work for the lazy. But among the
demobilized troops are plenty of men
who are young, tough and teachable
Four hundred acres have been taken
as beginning and each settler has IL
months probation before a black is
intrusted to him. The sum Of f625 is
advanced to each for implements,
stock, and house-building material.
The soldiers bave already started and
enjoy their rough life in the hills. The
experienced planter, Mr.. c. Rose, who
is in charge, sees nothing but success
ahead in reward for their efforts.

WHAT THE FARMERS WANT

labor wants, likewise capital, and in
the succession of industrial disputes
the facts have become generally

farm people Of America want"

hensce index of them had been pre-
pared by Clifford Pinchot, who was a
commission for many years and has
made considerable study Of the entire
rural problem. Mr.. Pinchot submits
his views in letter to Edward Keat-
ing, and here is what he says the
farmers of the United States want:
Effective recognition that the farm
ers make up full third of our peo-
pie, that in feeding all the world they
perform the first and most necessary

to be heard in the consideration Of the
great problems which face the nation

ing in This Country.

The inventory Of the nations re-

brought to light many new facts about
coal mining which will be of lasting
value to the industry and to the pub
lie. AS long as the war lasted these
incidental lessons were lost sight Of

emergency created by the shortage Of

The period from 1914 through 1917

In response to the unprecedented de-

UNCLE SANS GAME RESERVE
Island Of Afognak, on South Coast Of
Alaska, Peculiarly Adapted for
the Purpose.

One Of the most picturesquely in
terestlng parts of our national do
main is a large island off the south
coast Of Alaska. 1t is called Afognak
and is about 65 miles long by 40 in
width. with a very irregular shore line
and deeply indcnted by bays.
1t is the property of the government,
and in 1892 was set aside by President
Harrison as game and fish reserve.
The important purpose that It serves
Is that Of preserve for salmon, all
the finest varieties of which run uD it's
stream in great numbers at the breed
Ing season TO spawn.
Afognak is mountainous island,
of volcanic origin, its lOftiest peak
rising to an elevation of 1900 feet.
In the interior are number of large
lakes, which are the breeding
grounds of the salmon. One Of
these, Letnil lake, is seven miles long,
and on it's shore is located a big gov
ernment fish hatchery.
In the days Of long ago. before the
United States bought Alaska, the sal
mon fishery Of Afognak was operated
by the RusSan-American company,
which established on the island a coll
ony Of its Superannuated and penSiOned
employees. These were Aleuts, whose
descendants today compose the native
population, somewhat more than 400,
though their blood is much mixed.
