A Harvard professor says that no new sources of food
production have been discovered since the stone age. Neith

A New York congressman wants to Coster legislation
to ban advertising from the radio: Host radio fans, how
ever, would prefer that he turn his attention to static.
Lincoln Ellsworth, who was with Amundsen in the at
tempt to reach the north pole by flight, says he will try
it again. Such is the spirit of the explorer and the ex
tension of man's occupancy of the earth is its result.
Russell Scott, Chicago murderer, who has thrice es
caped hanging by n few minutes' margin, has been declared
insane and will go to an asylum. Is it any wonder that
minder becomes more common day after day when "i

" CHANGING OPPORTUNITIKS.
The closing of various land offices throughout the west,
: fin experience that La Grande had recently, is the occasion
tor comment in the World's Work on the eh nntrino u-nf
and the gradual elimination of free lands that is hringimr
-. to an end the activity of many generations moving ever
., westward toward "new county." The periodical savs, in
" part, as follows:
r "The truth is, another west is passing. The old Wild
e.si went long ago, with its un fenced, free range and its
- picturestitie cowboys (picturestiie in character as well as
in costume, which still suirives). Hut now the west that
. succeeded it is going too the west of the homesteader,
more lately come into the romantics, of fiction, through
""the. works of Willit Gather. and others.. ' Free land has fol
T'lowed the free range : hito the. limbo of far-off, forgotten
things. . 1
'"'The west that is, is a land of fenced pastures and
farms owned in fee simple subject to mortgage at 8 per
- cent, motor cars, and golf courses. A little of the old lif.j
.. is nursed along upon "dude ranches" and in the wild gamo
sanctuaries .of the national parks. The homesteader is em
Tbalmed in film and book. The present farmer is like his
brethren in New Hampshire or Ohio."
' 't is true that another west is passing, but it is equally
true that in its place we are forming a new west that of-
fers vastly more in opportunities to coming generations.
changed as those opportunities may be. There are still
- some government tracks that might attract the home
steader, and there are reclamation projects that will arouse
the fire of ambition in the hearts of thousands of settlers
in the next few years yet the real opportunities of th?
. new west lie in the agricultural, business, and industrial
development of a v;st territory just starting its re;.l
period of growth. It is there that the youth of the future
may look for life, for romance, and for accomplishment.
Changed it is, indeed, from the days that the old-timers
'sigh over, but even the old-timer would not have it other
''.wise. It is just one more step in the realization of the
dream of the pioneers of yesterday, a stop forward in tin
making of a better and greater nation.

After the "battle" there was but
