knew High as one who helped write presdential

And the president found High’s article published

Congress his historic proposal for supreme court re-

support from the same administration leaders who
had been roused to anger by High's article. So High

from Mrs. Charles L Manning.
The bear belonged to a neigh,

yard, climbed trees and frightened
her children, but when it opened
her screen door and walked into
the house—
"That," she said, "was too much.”

IRRIGATED COTTON
Of the many things done during the last four or
five yean in the name of relief and recovery that
were contradictory, the creation of new farm land
by Irrigating worthless marginal areas and then curb-
ing production of farm crops is perhaps the out-
standing example of long-range planning. Out in
West Texas the Red Bluff dam was built across the
Pecos river to provide water for irrigating arid land
to that section, and this spring the water will be
used to irrigate 10.000 acres ot eptton that will be
planted in soil which ordinarily produces only sage
. brush and bear grass. ,
This expenditure of money to reclaim worthless
land ia fine for the owners and those who utiltze
