WASHINGTON', 1-Vb. 8. If P.uuvnm
5a to be made sufficiently proluVvi nt
food to provldo for th 30,000 canal
digger, this must be accomplished by
others than tho rAttamantans.
This Is tbo conclusion of tlio exports
tccently sent there by the department of
ngrlcutture to utility farming conditions.
They will snortty Issue report upon
the opportunities In farming which that
country offers to settlers, and the prac
ticability of the establishment of gov
ernment farms for the supply of Uncle
Sam's employes.
Discussing the farm settlers' chances,
one of tho experts said that there was
a market for products unequaled In this
country. Practically nil of the food of
the Americana working upon the canal
Is canned or cold storage, and this diet
is beginning to toll upon them, not only
in their energy, but In tho apathy with
which titer face vegetables tinctured
with tin and. meats that, even though
carnlshcd with highly seasoned sauces,
have the suggestive, ghostlike taste of
preservatives. A good Idea of their
agrrness for real unbeiuoated food Is
the price they willingly pay for fresh
milk from SO to SO cents a quart.
Of course, the men now thero will re
turn when tho canal Is completed, but It
will be necessary utwuys to malntuln a
large jrrowth In population. Just as at
Suet Thsre now seems every proba
abltlty that the sono will be garrisoned.
Though the ground Is rough and bro
en there 1m little soil erosion and the
climatic conditions make up for the
difficulties In cultivation. A stick saw
ed off and stuck In the ground would
almost tuke root and grow. Of course
some experimentation In tho vegetables
and grains which are best suited to the
region would be necessary, but It Is
probable that the agricultural depart
ment will establish "experiment gar
dens" there which would aid the far
mer Immensely.

WASHINGTON', l-Vu. 5. ..He rises with
a soowl upon tits little, dark, wrinkle
face, his shoulders hunched up, hi
hands spread out, In ait attitude hat
apologetic, half appealing, and talks In
a whtntng voice. Ho does not stand more
than five feet six In his Jtttle shoes, and
ho has nil kinds of trouble expressing
himself.
To took f ' hint and to hear him you
would not think that ho amounted
muctt. and yet. today he ta tho most cor
dlallr disliked member of the house o
representatives. Moreover, If ntone
counts, he Is tho most valuable to the
government. Heccntly he saved the
treasury of the United States Just $150,
000, nnd since the session of the present
congress began has been Instrumental In
keeping In Uncle Sam's pockets a urea
many more thousands of dollars,
In short, Robert Rruco Macon, Demo,
crat, of the first Arkansas district, tho
dally objector and kicker, the self-ap
pointed watchdog of rtto treasury and
the volunteer guardian of the people's
Interests, Is so busy on tho Job these
days that he takes scarcely time enough
to get his meals.
Kvery time he leaps to his feet he
makes an enemy of some other con
gressman, for he always Jumps on some
member's corns. If the session lasts
long enough he'll have -no friends left In
the whole big chamber.
Lout week Macon secured the knock
out of an I12S.0OO appropriation for the
Immigration commission and got u tM.
000 reduction In the Appropriation for
the Pan-Amerlcnn congress nt Huoitos
yres. this spring.
He occupies a sU directly In front of
Speaker Cannon, In the first row. next
to the center aisle, and every time a Mil
comes tip appropriating money, he comes
up. too.
'I object. Mr. Speaker," he cries
Thut Is too much money."
And then he proceeds to make a halt
ing, clumsily-worded speech of hair an
hour's duration to prove that tho peo-
nle are belnc robbed.
Macon coinos from Helmut, Ark., wliere

difference to htm whether th- measure
up for consideration Is backed by the
Republicans or the Democrats. M'
against It' If It carries an appropria
tion, and he counts that day lost that he
doesn't loit it few thousands "off the
top."
He Is. therefore, not particularly pop
ular with his Democratic colleagues, but
as most of the big appropriation bills
come In under Republican gtiardlnnshlp,
his klcklni: and objecting generally looks
like Democratic action
"When I first .came to congress I let
a whole lot of big appropriations go

said Macon regretfully, discussing his
chosen vocation of money-saver, "but.

Party conditions are peculiar
