Uncle Sam, who gave, away or sold for a song mil lions of acres from out of his appar ently limitless frontier to get the land into cultivation by sturdy home steaders. Is preparing to buy part of lt-,bacjc ta get it out of production. But land economists In the department- of .agriculture who have laid the groundwork, for the land pur chase program, for which an Initial allotment . of 25,00O,0OO has been made, do hot figure that the govern ment will be ."gypped" in. the deaj. ifU'ilons ot acres were sold years ago to swell public revenues, al though the prices were so low the ravemio was a disappointment. In buying It .fcack Uncle Sam probably will not pay, on the average, much nigra than the price at which he sold although, theoretically, the land has been "Improved" these many years. Moreover, hundreds of thou sands of acres were granted in pay ment of wages and pensions due ex soldlcrs. '; One of the reasons Uncle Sam is so wilting to buy some of It back is that lie has decided It was expensive, even as. a gift, to those who received it. It Is so pODr that it Is impossible for . anyone, under ordinary conditions, to make a living from it by farming. - It Is being wasted and loat because unsuited for cultivation, and it Is proposed to put it under public own ership so that it can be used for other purposes and conserved. ;.Thls land the government proposes to buy Is called "submarginal" that, is, it la so unproductive that more effort is put into the land than the resulting crop Is worth. The program is not calculated greatly to reduce agricultural sur pluses. That job Is still to be left to the A. A. A. Submarginal. land produces little. ."' Rather, it is a plan to "mop up" CLOSE IN 5-nn. house. See Mrs. Harley Smith. La Grand hotel: ' 3-6-3 t. CHIEF 3 RAND CHICKS Leghorns 9c, heavies '9 14c, in lots of 100.

In the process of rapid settlement each depression and war produced a fresh wave of .youthful .and Jobless settlers to find new lauds in the west.. Before the rush. 'was halted at tempts had been made to open up some very poor laud. At, least that is tli picture drawn by government land studios. While many old farms were aban doned as a result of the competition of crops from the fresh lands, many persons, particularly of the oldor gen erations, continue to cling to the worn, deforested,, eroded soil that is their home.. The result is many partly settled, partly, abandoned' areas, both east and west, where a sparse population still requires public maintenance of schools, local governments and roads ' which, often add to the tax burden j of richer communities nearby. ; Tho . ideal "master laud.,, plan" wculd consolidate farming operations 1 en the best land, abandon somo lands ' altogether to. forests, parks, grassing,"' wild life preserves, watershed protec tion or erosion- control, and settle some of the population in combinS- j tton agricultural-industrial villages. I Those who remained would mako . marginal farms out of several sub- ' marginal farms by using the better' lands of each, and perhaps earn part of their Jiving by working in the for ests, i Officials recognize It will require several administrations to see the policy through. All those on sub marginal holdings cannot suddenly be . Induced to abandon their homes, nor can Inducements in the simps of gnrden villages bo provided suddenly.1' There are other problems, too, such as how to take care of business in terests and local government officials serving submarginal areas that might bo abandoned almost entirely; Z , WILL TAKE-THEM OUT TO THtM THINK IY MMWOTfP .'..
