OXK of llii' tfcdiKiinii' yiiins f tlii! war to of'fst t Ihc tre mendous Ions iiiitl eollosal t'XiJcnditui'CH, liiis been the more sympathetic undei'stiiiidins that has )revailed hetween capital and labor in their clone co-operation to win tho war. Labor has in the world crisis, secured a recognition never before enjoyed, nof only in America but in all bellijjerant countries and has demanded and secured a seat at the council table. For the first time in modern industrial life, capital and labor have betjiin to consider themselves as partners, each contributing his share to production for the common good, instead of enemies, each intent on looking out for selfish interests. The democracy of the modern army has swept aside posit ion and caste in the blood, shed' in common on the battlefields, and the common effort at home to keep the war machine going has torn down tho barriers of class and prejudice in the mutual dependence, and gone far to es tablish a real democracy. Kadi side is more ready to lend- a sympathetic ear to reasonable demands of the oilier than ever before. Commenting upon the new recognition of the commu nity of interests, the Archbishop of York recently said: "Nothing Is more striking than Die way in wjiich the employers frank ly recngnixe that they must be prepnred to look at tho new situation In a new spirit. The employers must recognize the necessity of giving to the workmen a larger shore of the prcduct of the Industry and a greater iiharo of control of tho management of Industry." Secretary of labor, W. 13. Wilson, recently said on the same subject: "It Is an unreasonable and untcnuhlo position of modern industry to assert for itself It : right of combination and deny that right to tho labor ing people. . . . Lal.or denied the right of solf-oxprossion always feels it self aggrieved, Is nevr nn efficient force 'because of its discontent which Hog smoldering beneath tlio surface, nnd which may at any time break out In disastrous strikes and other Indut trial disturbances. If lubor Is to be a partner of capital In tho welding of a nation that shall conquor tho Her man autocracy, a recognition of the rights of labor to bo consulted on tlio torm of partnership is essential." ; To further this program of harmony between capital and labor, the president formed the Committee on Labor as part of the Council of National Defense, headed by ex President Taft, to adjudicate labor disputes. Their decis ions have in the main been generously accepted by both capital and labor. There are of course both captains-o industry too re actionary and unpatriotic to recognize the democratic rights of their employes, and labor unions too rapacious and unpatriotic to accept the decisions of the national board. In such instance, the president has not hesitated to act for the common good. Tlie Western Union Telegraph company refused to obey the; order of the war labor council to permit its em ployes the right to organize for collective barganing and the government took over the telegraph lines. The IJethleheni Steel company has refused to comply with the findings of the labor council; and permit the prin ciples of democracy to prevail in its army of employes and unless it does comply, the concern will probably be taken over and operated by the government. The Smith and Wesson Co. refused to reliii(iii.sh its feudal rights over labor, and abide by the decision of tin war labor board enforcing collective bargaining, and the war department has taken it over to operate it, so as to secure continuous production and prevent industrial dis turbances. The recalcitrant labor unions have been similarly firmly dealt with. Strikers have been informed bluntly! by the president that, he considered them as slackers and traitors to America's cause and in all cases they have returned to work, accepting tin; decisions of the war board upon the issues in dispute. The latest labor organization to feel the heavy band of Uncle Sam is the liridgeport. Conn., Machinist's Union. These strikers have been notified that unless they return to work and abide by the wage award of the war labor board, they will be barred from employment for a year,: and draft boards will be instructed to cancel all claims' for exemption from army service based upon alleged use fulness in war production. The president is plnving no favorites. He tells the strikers: "Having exercised a drastic remedy with recal citrant employers, it is my duty lo use means equally well adapted to that end with labor and faithless employes." However, such instances have been rare. In only a few cases has the president had to exert his authority. (Icnerally speaking, employers and employes have patri otically co-operated in harmony to win the war. The old order of feudal industrialism has forever pass ed away. 'In fighting for world-wide. democracy we are also democrat i.ing the United States. The old order dies hard, but it is dyinn and it must if we are to remain democratic and avoid Holshevikisiii and I. W. W.ism.

There are two things to consider in this con nection. First that if the bonds nro voted the I'nitcd States government Iims nn opportunity to decide whether the project should go nhend nnd sec ond even if we are not allowed to build now .Mill every one who lenves the vulley will go nwuy knowinjr that just us soon ns we are allowed to build prosperity will return and they will he looking forward to coming hnek here. While tinder present con ditions those who go nway plan to settle in n community where prosper ity is evident in spite of tho fact that many of them would rather live here. What good would water do me? It would allow you to raise larger and more certain crops, it would insure you n higher average price on your crops, it would incrense your wealth and it1 would make your property suit able if you wished to sell. How can I be certain about lar-rer and more certain crops. During the winter months nn abundance of ruin falls to wet tho soil hut during tlie trowinir season wo have almost no rain. For every ton of dry matter which you grow you must provide from 7(1(1 to 111(10 tons of wntor in your soil within reach of the feedin;,' roots. Our soils aro lionvy'und: they t'linmit provide I his huee tonnage of water at Ihe proper time witirMiiu re sult, tluit our crops never produce mainiuiu yields excepting when we have unusual heavy, rains in. .July. How cull I he certain of higher av orage prices Instead of having one creamery, one Hour mill,, one feed 'store, one ejinery, you will find the samq thing happen ns it has in every irrigated district. Stock men will feed your hay, alfalfa mills will coin pele for your nlfalfu, dairy men will demand your green fodders, buyers will locate periiianenOv in your valley. Canneries will take till the vegetables r.nd fruits that you can raise. Today when prices are high we have little lo soil and when we have much to sell prices ore low because we have not got the business men whoso entire business is distribution. How can I bc certain (hat it will in crease my wenllh? Your wealth is based upon Ihe profits you can make. If yon make a profit of .(i per acre your land is world approximately Mltll per acre, if you double your profits you double the value of your laud und Iherefore your wenllh. The farmers in Hie Turlock irrigation dis. I riot were assessed in 11)04 at $1. 7SS,.iS!i, and in llll.") at rl0.1(M,R!IO, or an increase in their wenllh during II years of almost $11,000,01)0. That sainu conditions exists (brought nil irrigated districts. How can I be eertnin that my prop erty will he more salable? Fnnn lands like any other investment nrc figured upon the returns they can make on the money put into them. . . - Suppose you were looking for u farm would you be willing lifter ihe last five years of drought to put money into a Hogue Uiver valley non-irrigated farm?
