The day 'wa designated Je Trf Farming day and - tha experts fn thla class of reclamation work occupied the stage. More product from ao-calle'd dry Tarmlng r.rea are shown at the exposition than from tha Irrigated sections. The Great Northern runs through thousands of miles of territory which could never be fnrmed at all except by dry farm Ins; metho'1 and this is one of the reasons that L. W. Hill, president of the Great . Northern. Is Interested In the exposition and why J. J. Hill has given $2,600 In gold as prices for the best grain grown along these lines. "Formerly R was considered that land and arras of less than twenty Inches pre cipitation was good only for grazing," said FTof. Alfred Atkinson of Montana, chair man of the executive committee of the Dry Farming 'congress. "Under the demand for land and .with the womout ranges bare from overgrazing,, the farmers have at tempted to till the level areas of the, west. Millions of Acres Bared. "During the last four years experience and experiments have shown that this land may be farmed and at present 20O.00O.OU0 acres of former grazing land Is producing a very high grade of wheat and other grains. : "Experimental stations and dry farming congresses are Issuing literature showing the latest methods.

"The . further extension of dry farming will demand study to determine the amount of moisture required in the growth of the different crops, together with the amount Which may be made available in tha terri tory to be developed," said Prof. Roscoe V. Thatcher, director and chemist of the state agricultural experiment station at Pullman, Wash., In a lecture delivered Monday. . ... "This Is a .direction In which agricultural Investigation has . thu far not been ex tended exhaustively. Dry farming, more than any other; fluid of agriculture, de mands exact and careful work. While any careless farmer la destined to failure, It comes quicker to the careless dry farmer. "The principles of dry farming are bound to be of great help to agriculture in other fields. Now, for instance, the methods fot 'tha conservation of moisture could be used to good advantage in Central Ne braska, where drought has caused crop fonses in the past.

"The t'bone structure and the muscular structure are the two; essentials for a housewife, to km?w Id, buying beef. If you know these In r connection with the loca tions of cuts, you save a large amount each day on your butcher bill," said Miss Jessica Uesack, superintendent of the do mestic scitmce department at the corn show. Miss Besack spoke Monday noon In Blograph hull, with a beef quarter for demonstration. Miss Utsaek spoke also of the economy and treatment of cheap cuta. She ex plained the principles of cookery of meat in order to preserve the leading points cf value In beef.

McKlnney, a representative of the Depart ment of Agriculture of Canada, arrived to look over the Corn show to see what they might leath of interest. Mr. Duke says that three counties In Ontario raise 23,000.000 acres of corn and the acreage Is Increasing each year. One of the fnost Interested groups which took In the Corn show Monday was that of the students for the school for the deaf. These pupils were divided Into groups under the guidance of teachers and found many things to Interest them. . A new departure was Inaugurated Mon day morning at the Com show in the nature of a corn meeting where the farm ers told their experiences In raising corn. It was quite informal and lecture room No. 1 was filled with those Interested In hearing the experiences of farmers from other states.

Eight thousand varieties of wheat were grown from one crossing of seed at the experimental station at Worland, Wyo. The Worland Plant Breeding company se cured a consignment of black winter emmer from Egypt, and In this was some turkey red. The two brand were crossed and the result wa phenomenal. Kvery eed planted produced a different variety of wheat and some reverted back to the pelt of the Romans, grown 1,000 years ago. The experimenters, however, were able to ecure sixteen new varieties of wheat which are especially adapted to Wyoming sol! and cllmnte and these will be further pushed and bred In their pure state.

PLAN HAS NOT WORKED WELL Member of Omaha Tribe Say It Ha Reduced Indlr.a from an Inde pendent Character to Posi tion of Dependency. WALTHILL, Neb., Dec. 18. To the Ed itor of The Bee: The Omaha Indian are passing through a most irltlcal period, and having been asked many times for in formation concerning the well being and recent development of these Indiana, and th conditions surrounding them, I feol It fairly due the public I make a plain state ment of facts. Much discussion has been current during the past year of these existing conditions, which are slowly forcing them Into amal gamation with the white people. Assimila tion is a problem of the future, a solution of which Is dependent on the combined ef forts of the white people of this state and the Indians themselves, and perhaps the politicians, who are In a class by them selves, whose Influence is usually retro grade) I am a member of the Omaha tribe, hav ing worked among them for about twenty year as a practicing physician and medical field missionary. During these years I have observed closely the Influences, progressive or re trograde, concerned In molding the devel opment of my people. I have seen a gen eration pass away a generation which was of thb old and represented the primeval with all Its nobility and grandeur who never felt the tumult of the new life and with Its tragic passing left behind It an echoing note of sadness for that life which Is but a memory to those who are entering Into the new life unknown as yot. un tried as yet, as far as achievement Is concerned. Indian Misunderstood. How little have most of those who have controlled the destinies of the Indians understood their Inner life their thoughts, Their hopes, their aspirations, and the con ditions surrounding them. There was much that was noble and beautiful In the primitive American In dianhe was taught In his early child hood, and clear through manhood, that he owed to himself and to those around him the proper cultivation of his physical and moral nature, and the Indian was circum scribed by laws and customs as well de fined and more easily applied and better observed than the most refined code cf laws In our own modern state. The strict observance of such laws brought practical results which I defy your so-called civil ization to equal or surpass there were no murderers, no robbery, no petty thieving, no drunken brawls no subjecting of man hood or womanhood to social Impunity. The generation before you today Is passing, this is a stage of trasitlon although Influenced to come extent the traditions of the old. they have not yet grasped the good Influences of the new life. The Indian Is struggling to adjust himself to the new ways, which he has no alternative, tut to accept, he has to assume It whether he likes it or not, he has to put It on whether he understands It or not. He Is passing, without much understanding from his own civilization Into a so-called higher civilization. Tha white man may stand beBlde htm from day to day and may honestly deBlro to help him, and yet cannot do so fully because he cannot understand the Indian nature and knows 'nothing of "the" struggle going on among the benighted, bewildered people as they Journey out of the old life Into the new. Without understanding you, crlstlcise us and try to teach us. Nature of Old Indian. Tha government says, we must become "self-supporting" In the past we did not gather into barns, but the Indian never went hungry. He utilized to the utter most the resources of nature that Ood gave him yon day, ve are somewhat tacking in our solicitude for " a rainy da," stop and realize fcr a moment that for many cen turies these people lived a true slrnple life at peace among themselves, away from a strucgle for existence, deserving their ample nourishment from bountiful nature believing equally free as air, water and unshlnel They gained more than the American people receive In their mad struggle for existence they gained the universal pursuit and desire of all mankind happiness! Having Jived such a life for centuries, Is It reasonable for white psople to expect them In one generation to cast off all tho old and take up a new life with all its complexities and play the game with tho same zest as they and their vanished ltln r (Many white people have died, and mora will die In the future, of "Amerlcanltls.") Many years agd my people made a num ber of treaties with the government of the United States defining the limts of their lands, which were held by tribal owner ship, and then on August 7 1SS2, congress passed an act providing for . tho Separate allotment and assignment to the Individual Indians of certain tract to be held under Individual ownership, the government, however, hold ing the title In trust for twenty.five years. Effort to Change Character. The avowed object of th allotment was to teach the Indians habits of Industry and thrift and better prepare them for tha complexities and responsibilities of modern life. The twenty-five years was presumed to be a period of development under the be nevolent guidance of an all-wise govern ment. To a limited degress this dream has beer, realized, and the present generation Is much better prepared to meet the modern conditions and demands than The genera tion that has passed away.

Som of th A me .lean peo ple who are deeply lntrstd In the In dian are studying th same problem today and will demand the answer as the trust periods for .the several tribes draw to their close. I do "not presume to ask for space In this communication to give you my views and reasons a to tha failure. It would Involve the consideration of condi tions and affairs, the putting Into prac tice of theories evolved y an Indian office hundreds of miles from the scene of action, who )s In a certain sense controlling the destinies of these people, and whoee policy for the next two year has to be closely watched for It will be of vital Interest to the well being and life of these Indians, who are citizens of our great state. All this I shall reserve for a later communi cation, Indian and White One. The solution of this problem Is being watched wltfi deep and close Interest by the white peoplo of this portion of the tate .for It 1 an established fact that the Indians and white people hav become on community. In conclusion I propose to give you a few facts for the Information of the many desiring to know something of the Omaha reservation. The Omaha owned 114,767 acres of land situated mostly In Thurston county( and have a controlling vote) about twenty-five Allies south of Sioux City. There ! only 4.0O1 acre still unallotted, while there are 667 minors, 540 children having no allot ments as yet. There are 1,378 Omaha In dians. - Te affairs of the Omaha are under the supervision and direction of Mr. A. Q. Pollock, who 1 superintendent and disbursing agent, with a force of clerical help. He has been here only a few months and like most men filling such positions his stay Is uncertain, owing to the policy of the government, to move these men about just as their acquaintance with the work and conditions on a reservation ren ders them most efficient. C'hoo Due to Condition. During the summer and fall affairs were In a chaotic state owing to the extension Of the trust period, and the breaking up of tribal relations, and the increased respon sibility of the holding of some titles by the Indians, as well as to certain investi gations carried on by a force of several Inpectors, but Mr. Pollock has shown himself cBihble. and 'earnest, honest and trustworthy, energetic and aggressive and la well liked by the Indian. The last has an Important bearing, for he has a vast and very important work ahead of him ' for, these people, and Mr. Valentine, the new commissioner of In dian affairs, has made a wise choice In his selection of tha "man on the ground." He took the position .surrounded by a host of Inspectors, whose Investigations were upsetting affairs considerably on the reservation and left, them unsettled for some time. He ha had to meet emergen cies. 1 hampered bv, restrictive regulation which have caused. .;delays and resulting dissatisfaction to the Omahas, but through It all he has harmonized adverse Interests and done well by the Indians, giving satis faction to both white people and Indians by hi straight businesslike methods. During the summer Mr. F. H. Abbott, the assistant commissioner of Indian af fairs, visited the reservation and Investi gated conditions, and w look for a most progressive and Intelligent support from the Indian office, as a result, for the bet terment of the future welfare of the peo ple. . As he Is a citizen of this state he has taken this problem of the Indian very much to heart. Critical Ttm 1 Now. I feel thst the erltlca.1 time has arrived In th development of my people and with the rle-ht kind of administration and with the honest and unselfish help of the good people of this state and the co-operation of the Indians, the future has some good things In store for the Omahas. I know what thev can do under given conditions, but for their welfare, the proper conditions rntist be produced. I hnvo not p-eparert this communication In the spirit of an arrltatnr. hut I feel ihn ub1"et Is vital enough to warrant con ('li'lve action, and In the settlement of these cjurstlons I rail for the co-oneratlon of the white people and th Indian, be cause after all we shill be on country and one peoplo.
