SOUTH AMERICA
EMIGRATION TO SOUTH AMERICA

EMIGRATION TO SOUTH AMERICA
HERE are ten countries in South
America not including the Guianas.
The area of the ten is about double
that of the United States and they present
every variety of soil, climate and rainfall
to degree much greater than the varieties
presented in the United States. Even
within single country there are varieties
in soil, climate and rainfall as great as
those existing between Maine and south
ern California. Moreover, the social Gus
toms, farming and stock raising methods
also differ widely in different localities.
It~is not possible, therefore, to predicate
anything generally of South America. 1t
is. continent and not locality. Pros
pective settlers must bear this in mind,
and, moreover, they must bear in mind
that in every part of South America they
will encounter conditions radically differ
ent from anything they have known in the
United States. Even in localities where
there is certain similarity in soil and cli-
mate to given parts of the United States,
it must be remembered that the people
speak different language, have different
social customs, transportation is on a diff
ferent basis, the markets are different, cul-
ture and methods are different and money
is different. When labor is employed it
demands ,different requirements and, pro-
duces and works differently.
The prospective emigrant to any part
of South Amrica, unless he be capitalist
and able to create his own conditions, goes
there much as an European immigrant,
not speaking English, comes to the United
States; his chances of assimilation are GER
tainly no better than those of the European
immigrant here, and in nine cases out of
ten are not nearly so good. But, after all,
the main question is a personal question.
AS general axiom it may be laid down
that the man who has failed of success in
locality with which he is familiar is
almost sure to fail in a locality with
which he Is not familiar. Of course, there
may be exceptions, but generally speaking
neither South America nor any other for
eign land is likely to offer the basis of sue
cess TO man without capital who cannot
succeed here.
Nevertheless, South America does offer
an inviting field to the man with proper
capacities and who is well equipped and
this offer includes many lines of industries.
Stock RAISING
In Venezuela and Columbia there are
large areas of almost virgin prairie land
which grows a natural coarse grass suit
able for cattle grazing The climate is
tropical and the cattle are subject to a
number of tropical diseases and parasitic
enemies. Notwithstanding, however; the
cost of producing animals is low and
transportation by water can be cheaply
developed.
In Southern Brazil the climate is semi
tropical. The lands are rolling and hilly.
The soil is good and cultivated grasses
grow luxuriantly. Stock production is per-
haps best carried on as an adjunct to farm
ing but range operations on large scale
are practical.
Uruguay and Argentina: The largest
development of stock raising is in these
localities and it is generally (Psss 4, 0ol y

Passing around the corner of the building
Bobbie beheld his opportunity to see and
hear what transpired within. A flight of
several steps led past window which
shed vari-colored light upon the snowy
steps. The doorway itself was also COW
cred. with snow, showing that it was un-
used and the lower part of the window
was open!
A step was heard, and, turning burly
policeman confronted him. Bobbie made
a pretense of shifting his papers and
shine-box.
Hello son." said the cop. "You're in too
swell neighborhood to sell them papers
here"
"Ain't much business tonight anyway"
replied Bobbie.
"Got some big doings in this joint to-
night. Wonder if it's started yet" re-
marked the cop as he peered into the open
window. Here kid-climb up here and
take look; peeking's all we'll get in this
outfit"
Climbing the steps, and shielding his
face from within by standing behind a
clump Of snow-covered vines, the lad be-
held sight as of Fairy-land. Great
arches, decked with evergreens; long rows
of richly-carved red benches filled with
hundreds of finely dressed people; and
way up in front, great alter, with a
golden Cross surrounded with electric
candles upon golden candle-sticks. To
either side were several more rows of
gorgeous benches-these facing toward the
central aisle; while far up above, huted
pipes, also of bronze and gold.
'Look kid" whispered the cop. "The show
is going to start"
A young man in long black gown
and white silk vestment with flowing
sleeves, entered, and sat behind bower
of evergreen. The organ pealed, the
people rose, and, softly, was heard the
voices of children singing somewhere be-
yond. The singers drew nearer, and the
music came as majestic wave. A long
procession of white-robed Choristers filed
in beneath the arches, and, with happy
faces and measured tread, marched to
their seats near the Altar.
ooh day of rest and gladness; Oh day
of joy and light'-sang the voices.
"Stick around kid. I've got to report"
said the cop.
"Merry Christmas" called the lad.
"Same to you, son." replied the cop as
he trudged away.
Entranced by the music, but tired in
body, the lad sat down upon the snow
covered steps and soon fell asleep. And
then
Bobbie heard the tinkle of seigh-bells.
"Oh, it's Santa Claus!" and he peered
through the crack of his slightly-open bed
room door. -
Santa came in with great Christmas
tree laden with pop-corp, tinsel, and
candles. His parents eagerly
SET the tree in one corner of the room and
Santa began fishing wonderful things out
of his big sack. There were skates, a
drum, sled, rocking-horse, and whole
train of cars!
The door creaked. "Ahal" cried Santa.
Little boys have big ears. Well, come
in son you caught me, didn't your"
laughed Santa.
Bobbie ran into the room clad in his
long, white mighty" and Santa gave him

lEOOTBALL coaches of the Pacific coast col
leges and universities are going to kill the
king of outdoor sports if they don't watch out.
They are using several tactics this season
which will surely bring football into disrepute
if continued.
Pulling horses was practice that helped
put racing under the shadow This consisted
simply in having some jockey hold back his
mount in order to make not quite so good
showing as he was capable of making.
Now we have the admitted spectacle on this
Coast of football coaches pulling" big univer-
sity teams. 1t was done last Saturday, for in
stance, in the California-W. S. c. game.
While the evil of pulling horses was chiefly
to influence betting, and while nobody is charg-
ing the football coaches with any such motive as
that, yet there is the same air of questionable
maneuvering about the proceeding.
The essence of sport is to do your best against
the other fellow, and then to accept the result
manfully; to be modest in victory and good-na-
tured in defeat But to fight hard while the con-
test is on.
When coaches send varsity teams into games
instructed not to play their maximum, but mere
ly to win by the smallest possible margin, they
are violating this code of craftsmanship. They
are injecting element of manipulation into
the games that is bound, sooner or later to be
misunderstood, perhaps misused, and which is
certain to do the sport harm-certain to lose the
public's respect
Excessively heavy schedules washington, for
instance, is playing 10 varsity games this falD
and the staging of games at long distances from
the campus of either contender, solely to pile up
gate receipts and advertise colleges (W. S. c.
VS.. Q. A. G., in Tacoma, and California VS.. w.
5. e., at Portland, for instance), are practices
that football is already being seriously CONNER
-calized.
intercollegiate sport is like Caesars wife. We
must keep its name above scandal-nay, above
question.
