By J. E. BUCK. We have come to the dividing of the ways we have reached a critical point in the history of our agricultural development. Aside from the 35,000,000 acres in the United States that can be reclaimed by irrigation, and the 74,000,000 acres of farm lands that can be made available for cultivation by means of drainage, no very large areas of virgin soil remain to be brought under cultivation ia our country. In time, of course, these barren lands will be made to yield abundant harvests but for the present we must look elsewhere to find a solution of the problem with which we are confronted. If we are to keep on going forward it will be necessary for us to secure larger yields from the fields that are already under cultivation. That is to say. our problem is

not the least sign or waiting. Meanwhile I beard the muttering of distant thunder, and while I was look

Then followed one crash after another, and I expected that at least the mother would wake up and take a look at her children. Hut she slept on.

One hundred years ago the Mohawk valley in New York was the wonder of Europe, was the wonder of the world ior its fertility, and thousands of carloads of cattle, hogs and farm crops were shipped out of that valley until Its fertilitv has been exhausted The

settlers then moved westward into the Miami and Scioto valleys of Ohio, and did the same thing over again. Following the exhaustion of these rich valleys, the magnificent broad prairies of Illinois and Iowa were brought under cultivation, aod the same process now being repeated.
