This exobange haa-been Instituted
with tbe primary Idea of placing be
fore city people the oppertnnity to
either buy or rent homes In' this
ouiity. .With no railroad here orio
tbe valley it probably la Imposaible
to Induce (aotoriea to locate and the
only resource - toward improvement
hi to induce more people to make
their homes here. Sellers want buy-
era to know where the thing they
nek may be found, and buyers wanl
to know, where to look for what they
are seeking. To bring tbe two clas
ses together expresses the Intention
and object. If people will aid by
Hating their property, at no expense,
It will facilitate the enterprise. The
effort may perhaps test the sincerity
of the cilia us in aiding the county
to improve.

may safely be left to his own discre

America's Waste Lands
An interesting article in SUCCESS
points out how the thousands of
square miles of waste land in this
Country, especially tn the Rockies
and Louisiana may bs mads to pro
duce food for mankind. Iu the large
swamps in the latter state hippopo
tami would grow and multiply, and
their flesh is excellent tasting some
thing between pork and beef. Their
fat ia the purest kuowu to science
and their hides are very thiok snd
tough. In tbe Rookies a number of
animals, some fourteen kinds, would
easily adapt themselves to conditions "
and produce immense quantities of
meal. The animals suggested are
mostly from Africa and the mount
sins of Asia. Many thousands of
dolisrs are. anuually spent In Louis
iana to prevent the streams from be
ing shut up with the water hyacinth
which growa in great profusion, and
which would be a uatural food for .
hippos. Tbe animals weigh several
toas each and would produce im
menee quantities of steak.

Au exceedingly interesting politi

Hi to the temporary chairmanship of
tl.a convention. The message was
suppressed and Sherman waa named

whose name wss before the commit

vulged snd Taft wrots a letter show
