After three months 'ho got out, left his prop erty and sought better health in the North where . he has managed to shake off malaria effects.

To do suc cessful missionary walk among Hin dus, Christian. must recognize, for a time at least, the caste system, Sher wood Eddy, noted worker in Oriental fields, told the Men's National Mis sionary congress here today. Hindus of one caste will not accept religious advice from another, be said. But if the Christian religion could have suf ficient teachers who are members of the lower strata of society, fifty mil- ' lion converts would be obtained in a ! short time, Eddy predicted. He had ! found in China, he said, that the edu cated classes were the hardest to reach; but thn in India, it was th-i uneducated m:iss of lower caste Hindu that was hard to get at.

This state must take care of an ever growing population. Within ten years or less these lands will undoubtedly sell at from $7f to ?t00 per acre if cleared and for $f0 or more in raw state. Palmer Lands are an opportunity for a man with small resources and an ideal investment for a man with means. Palmer Lands are near a railroad. Wood and water is in abund ance.
