Hanssteadcrs Travel West By Motto

CaravaA-
An autoroblle caravan OF IFS per.
sons left Brooklyn, N. r., July %, on
an overland trip to Bull, Idaho. Each
machine was equipped with q camping
outfit, mounted on trailer. This Is
the 6rst contingent Of colony OF 4OC
homssteaders who have purchased S..
100 seres Of irrigated land and are
leaving their city homes 70 take W
agriculture, says the November Pop
ular Mechanics Magazine in an illus.
tratsd article.
Each family was required to possess
q minimum Of 5000 toward its new
home, and to be In Q position to Gus.
tain itself for ct least enc year, until
the first crop would be marketed. A
government board was chosen TO ad.
minister the Affairs Of the colony, and
the saterprise 10 being conducted In {
thoroughly husinesslike way.
Oaly Q few Of the eolonists have
had practical experience In farming
but they will be backed BY the Idahs
authorities, who have practically guar.
anteed results. Experts from the
Idaho Agriculture College will furnish
supervision during the FIRST year.

Concerning Corn.

Corn is cheap this year. The crop
is somewhere in the neighborhood OF
three billion bushels, and the fsrmer
will probably receive not much more
than hfy-Hve or sixty cents a bushel
for II. The season has been good one,
so far as growing conitions arc con-
eerned, and the fact that many cotton
farmers planted only half their usual
acreage OF cotton and put much Of their
spare land into corn has helped to make
this years crop at least the second lar
sest one ever raised in the United
States.
IL is pity that the people OF Eu-
rope-except the ltalians-are so sus.
picious OF corn as a food. 10 they
knew how to use /, as Americans do
they could relieve their necessities and
save money by suyins more Of our
surplus. The newspapers report that
some OF the railway workers in Austria
struck because the bread furnished nv
the government contained corn meal.
which, they said, was unfit for con.
sumption" il is safe to say rha, those
men had never tasted any Southern
hoe-eake or Western johnny-cake or
New England hasty pudding. "una,
Tor consumption" indeed
Some years ago, when a great vo,ld,s
fair was in progress, a Southern negro
COOK was sent to preside over n booth
where the most delicious breads md
cakes and buildings made OF corn were
onered TO the thronging visitors. She
wac an artist after her kind. but there
IS no evidence that we have cxpor.ed
any more corn because OF her lsbors
corn does not grow well In most En-.
ropean countries, and the unfortunate
INHABITANTS seem to think that WIN,
VIII not grow in their own back wards
cannot be good to eat, anyway.
You will pay much less than half q,
much for a thousand caIories in m,
FORM OF corn meal than for the sam,
