M. P. DICKINSON, Secretary Arkansas Farmers' Union. New York, Oct. 1.—Dear Mr. Smith, President Business Men's League, St. Ixauis, Mo.: Referring to yotir letter of Sept. 20, you will see from clipping inclosed that President Taft has com milted himself, and continues to com mit himself, to the development of ,.,e Northwest. Irrigation and reclamation are the wo important factors which are re ceiving the attention of the people I of the different sections of the coun try where such Improvements are needed for the proper growth of their respective sections. The attention of Congress, under Mr. Taft’s support (which has been brought around from his personal ob servation) is being concentrated on the Northwest, and from fifteen to thirty million dollattt have been proni is< d for the purpose of putting more land under cultivation. As President Taft says, the nation must move with deliberation, anti if that deliberation is concentrated upon the Northwest, it means it will take several years before the subject will again be considered by Congress. ,n the meantime the Southwest will ue on the waiting list. One of the difficulties that I have observed in the last fifteen years in tile development of (the Southwest, end I might say of the South, is the fact that we do not seem t4 take op portunities as they do in the North west. We are anxious and enthusias tic, but we permit other things to sidetrack us. Itineraries ate made to be smashed when It is necessary. None appre ciates this mote than President Taft. Nothing will accomplish as much as to let him see that country, as shown by inclosed map—that rich area, a small portion of which ,:s now in use. but if six and a half million dollars were i xpended on it Ithe unproductive swamps would lie changed to the finest agricultural section of the world, producing in Northeastern Mis souri alone one hundred million bush * Is of corn, two million bales of cot ton and e'ghlt million bales of alfaa.1. all of which would probably be more than duplicated in Arkansas and lxm is Iatia t)n the recent trip of the “good roads" party front the Soutnwe v;tidying good road construction in the Eastern States, Mr. G. A. Cole, president of the Farmers' Union of Arkansas, and Mr. .1. E. Harbert, president of the Palmers' Union of Louisiana, In itheir talks where they were entertained by governors and other officials of the different states, bctlt spoke on all occasions of the .meat ri; hness of the alluvial valleys oi Arkansas and Louisiana, only awaiting drainage This is one of the foremost prob lems of the day. and is just as eaaerlv living sought by the different com munities who tea Use what ft means, as in former days when all com munities were seeking government aid for waterway improvements. 1 am a strong believer in the devel opment of waterways under a proper system, but what we need now is something that wii give quick results The Improvement of the Mississippi R vt r has been under way for more than loo years, and it will take many years more before any- improvement over present conditions is accom plished. This other matter is imme diate, with big results. All the people of that section ask is that President Taft see the situa tion h in sol f, so that he may recom mend that one of two things lie done, ether the Improvement of the St. Francis and Little Rivers by the gov ernment. so It tout they will provide adequate channels for the discharge of the waters, or to turn the matte: over to the drainage district, so that “Norma Martinez” The only Clear Havana Cuban hand, made Cigar in the United States for which the dealers pays $40 net cash direct from the factory and retails for 5c each.

The owners of the property are will ing to spend the money and do the work, and only ask relief from thy government in one of the two In stances. As the matter stands today, that section is at a standstill, with great future possibilities. If the President rides by steamer from St. Ixmis to Memphis he will not see the country or get any information of value,, while on the other hand. If he goes by water to Cape Girardeau, the tic - by rail to Memphis, he wil personally see the necessity of the situation. This is of so much importance 1 hape that the Business Men’s League and other business clubs interested in the development of the richest part of Missouri will give it serious con sideration. 1 am sure if . resident iaft can personal/ see the difficult.es which that district is now laboring under and the great benefits to follow a little attention from the govern ment, with little or no expense to the government, it will result in much good being accomplished. Very truly yours, B. P. YOAKUM.
