THE GOLDEN AGE PUBLISHING COMPANY, Atlanta, Gorgia
acorns and dried mescal, is gone. So
is the Indian that Uncle Sam had to
bring up by hand. The Indian today
is mostly earnin’ his own livin’ and
sendin’ his young ones to reservation
schools to learn how to work. They’re
industrial schools, and the girls learn
how to cook and sew r , as well as to
read, and the boys learn how to make
wagons and houses, and how to farm.
There’s a big difference between the
way the Indian farms now and the
way he went at it when Colonel St.
John brought the first plow to Ari
zona, and the Pimas that had no work
horses, hitched in a tandem of squaws.
As for the old-time cowboy, ridin’ hard
and drinkin’ hard and shootin’ right
and left, he’s gone, too. The cattle
ranges are wired in and the cowboys
I saw were quiet fellows, polite as
candidates. But the biggest change
is in the land. The old scrub sage
brush and mesquite plains and the
sandy desert is going, going, and a
lot of it gone, turned into green wheat
fields and fields of cotton and alfalfa
and orchards and towns. What did it?
Why, just water. That’s the secret.
Water was the Aladdin’s lamp that
worked the change—water with brains
and muscle to back it. Irrigation
made the desert blossom. Thousands
of acres have been reclaimed, and
thousands more are on the way to
being made over. They work quickly
out there. It’s enough to make your
head swim. Why, in Idaho —”
“You didn’t go that far, did you?
You must have spent all your money.”
“I did, and more, too. Got to Idaho
dead broke, but made a raise—”
“I see. You jes’ held up some fel
low from the mines with more dust
stuffed in his pockets than he had any
use for, and made him go shares.”
“Did I? Not much. The only holdin’
I did was to hold down the first job I
got. It was pickin’ beans, and then
it was makin’ sugar. No, sugar cane
doesn’t grow there, but sugar beets
do, and the way they grow is a sight
to see —twenty tons to the acre —and
big sugar factories all about. Farmin’
there is sure inspirin’. A four-horse
gang plow bursts up fifty acres of sage
bush while you wait. Oh, yes, there
are plenty of mines—lead, gold, silver
and all sorts! I went to the New
Roosevelt Mine and watched them dig.
It’s what I’m going to do right off —
dig. No; I’m not goin’ back to Idaho.
I’ll do my diggin’ here. There’s plenty
of gold in the ground right here, and
I’m going to try to get some of it
out —with the hoe and the plow. I
learned a thing or two while I was
gone. One of ’em was that you can
do anything if you’ll work with good
sense and a will. The old man’s goin’
to turn the farm over to me, and I’ll
show you what I can do with it.”

LINCOLN’S DEATH.
Some far plan
Required the master’s life-blood
interblent
To point his monument.
—E. C. Stedman.
The Golden Age for April 23, 1908.
HE GOT IT, BLESS HIM.
Among the passengers on a Western
train recently, says The Boston Jour
nal, was a woman very much over
dressed, accompanied by a bright
looking nursegirl and a self-willed, ty
rannical boy of about three years.
The boy aroused the indignation of
the passengers by his continued
shrieks and kicks and screams, and
his viciousness toward his patient
nurse. He tore her bonnet, scratched
her hands, and finally spat in her
face without a word of remonstrance
from the mother.
Whenever the nurse any
firmness the mother chided her sharp
ly. Finally the mother composed her
self for a nap, and about the time the
boy slapped the nurse for the fifth
time, a bug came sailing in and flew
on the window of the nurse’s seat.
The boy at once tried to catch it.
The nurse caught his hand and said
coaxingly:
“Harry mustn’t touch. Bug will
bite Harry.”
Harry screamed savagely and be
gan to kick and pound the nurse.
The mother, without opening her
eyes or lifting her head, cried out
Sharply:
“Why do you tease that child so,
Mary? Let him have what he wants
at once.”
“But, ma’am, it’s a —”
“Let him have it, I say.”
Thus encouraged, Harry clutched at
the bug and caught it. The screams
of pain that followed brought tears of
joy to the passengers’ eyes.
The mother awoke again.
“Mary,” she cried, “let him have it.”
Mary turned in her seat and said
confusedly.
“He’s got it, ma’am!”
“What is it?” languidly asked the
mother as the screams increased.
“A wasp, ma’am,” said the nurse.

THE MOSQUITO IN A NEW LIGHT.
It was the first night Pat and Mike
spent in America. They secured a
small room at a boarding-house. There
were no screens at the windows. Be
ing afraid of robbers, Pat and Mike
decided to let the light burn all night.
Soon the mosquitoes became intoler
able.
“Let’s turn out the light so they
can’t find us,” said Pat.
In a short while some fireflies fit
ting about entered the room.
Never having seen any before, Mike
exclaimed:
“Hully Gee! Pat, they’re cornin’ af
ter us with their lanterns!”
