in more than seven years since a

been seen in New York harbor
where before then their numbers
were as much to be remarked almost
as the wondrous size and tonnages
Of many OF them. The shorter
memories mi ght be stirred TO enthus-
iastic welcome by realizing that it
had been less than four years since
German submarines had paid the

SOLDIERS WANT
FARMS.

The Secretary of the Interior re-
ports that for every government
farm available today there are 100
service men standing ( in Line.
Since last February the department
has opened to settlement on irriga-
ton projects 469 farms, and has
had 10000 war veterans struggling
to get them, and it has on hand
now nearly 100000 inquiries re-
garding opportunities to settle on
government land.
It is the same experience that for
mer Secretary Lane had, when he
was working on big plan Of land
redemption and soldier settlement
Immediately after the armistice. 1t
is, in fact, the usual thing. After
every war, in every country, the

lions have been made at such times.
1t was this craving of soldiers for
land of their own that was the
chief factor in populating and de-
veloping these western states, after
the Civil war.
Unfortunately the Interior de-
partment is able to do little at
present along this line. The best
land is gone. 1t lacks funds to de-
velop the available areas of arid
land and swamp land and cut-over
timber land, and also lacks legis-
lative authority.
There is some hope, however, in
the land settlement provision of the
proposed soldier relief bill. This is
felt by many to be the most admir-
able part of the measure, and wor-
thy of being enacted separately if
the cash bonus and other provisions
fail of passage.

love for their lost ones. Our "vul-
gar" fashions in funerals adds to
their expense, which often follow Il
long and heavy expenditure in their
effort to keep their loved ones with
them. The result in more instances
than most people imagine is bur-
den of debt for useless trappings
that have been buried-useless
trappings in which they have paid
many times an honorable profit.
The best remedy for this profiteer-
ing in human grief will be growth
in civilization which makes our
funeral fashions as obnoxious to
custom as they now are to good
taste. But there will always be OPP
portunity for the interruptions to
trade in grief by gouging for the
necessary expenses Of death. There
is no place in common life where
the individual more needs the pro-
lection of the law.--Milwaukee
