the out-of-door life, and the broad

which goes with it. .Hie inde
pendent life of the scientific farm
er will appeal to them as never
before, and for their own good
and the good of the nation, this
-desire should be met in a com
prehensive manner.
Secretary of the Interior Lane,
•with admirable foresight, has
worked ont a plan which is both
pratieal and desira.ble.
At the close of the Civil War
there were vast areas of the
choicest land whieh had never
felt a plow, that tbousanfls of
returning soldiers were allotted
under the homestead law. That
was over fifty years ago, when
hundreds of our now well-known
Vestern cities and towns had not
been .thought of. While there re
niais some good unclaimed gov
ernment lands in ^various states,
its total is a mere garden com
pared to what was available then.
The problem of supplying pro
ductive lands in both our warm
and colder climates becomes Une
largely of reclamation. Take the
swamp and overflowed lands of
Florida and 'the (JJaulf States, ané
a few other states, <of which there
are some 60,000,000 acres of the
richest soil. There are also the
eut-over lands whiefa still lie
waste, and other now barren
lands in the far West, rich as the
valley of the Nile when water is
poured upon it.
These three classes of land are
all capable of enormous produc
tion, once they are reclaimed and
tilled. This work of réclamation
, would immediately off the indum
enta of outdoor activities, and
en accomplished, a permanent

treme, and in some places in act
ual jeopardy.
Under the proposed plan all this
is to be reversed. The govern
ment would.,finance and engineer
the reclamation ; would build
roads and farm buildings; would
equip with necessary machinery
and stock; would establish rural
delivery. Where the pioneer jlid
everything J by the hardest work,
scientific firming would reduce
manual labor to a minimum;
where he had to wait several
years to more from his sod hut
into something better, under the
new plan the settler would com
meiiee with ewery essential to
comfort and success. With these
new districts fully settled as fast
as developed, and with automo
biles, the buyer of these re
claimed lands would be anything
but isolated or remote. New
towns will spring up to supply
storw, and with so large a per
centage of young people, condi
tions will be ideal. The above
plan is an expanmon of one al
ready used with success in some
other ^countries.
Nobody is to receive something
for northing. The government
would use the returned soldior
and pay him; as fast as one re
claimed section was completed,
and reatfy for occupancy, farms
would be sold on eaçy-pavment
plans, the payments extended
over a very long term of years if
necessary. With their natural
enterprise, #the large portion of
buvers would work out of debt in
a few years.
While the actual work of re
clamation would not be under
taken during the war. the details
of the plan should be, so that, im
mediately on return. to civilian'
life, those who desired fto go into
the reclamation work oould do so.
To accomplish this Secretary
Lane is askrng Congress for a few
hundreds ©Î thousands of dollars.

Easy Way to Stop
Waste of Food.
In this couutry alone rats des
troy and spoil over two hundred
million dollars worth of foodstuffs
every year, so why delav using a
reliable method of ridding our
homes, stores and warehouses of
these wasteful pests? Probably
there is no easier nor more effec
tive method of exterminating rats
than Steam's Electre Paste, a
ientific product that has been
used a successfully by the U. S.
Government in its different cam
paigns against the rat. A small
box, costine onlv a few cents, will
usually completely free the house
from rats and mice. It will also
