BILL NOW BEFORE CONGRESS Plan Is to Demonstrate That the 8pineless Cactus, Valuable as Domestic Animal Forage, Can Be Grown In S8eml-Arld Districts. By GEORGE CLINTON. ‘Washington.—Sclentists ot the agri cultural department are showing great interest in a bill which has been fav- orably reported from the house com- mittee on public lands to turn over under certain conditions semi-arid lands in California, New Mexico, Ari- zona and Nevada to Luther Burbank of Santa Rosa, Cal, In order that he may be given a chance to demonstrate that spineless cacti, valuable for do- mestic animal food, can be grown there, and thus desert lands be made profitable. Representative Raker of the com- mittee on public lands has submitted & favorable report to the house asking that the lands be turned over to Mr. Burbank for experimental purposes and in his report he says that there seems to be no doubt that the Call- fornian “has propagated a spineless cactus most valuable for forage, which if properly introduced may revolu- tlonize the agricultural conditions in many of the semi-arid and arid reg- fons of the southwestern part of the United States.” d In the favorable report on the bill an explanation is made of the terms under which Mr. Burbank can take over these great tracts of land for ex- perimental purposes. The report says: “In order to encourage these experi- mentations, it is proposed to permit Mr. Burbank, after it is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the secretary of the interior that said cact! ean be thus commercially and profitably prepared, to purchase the amount of land as stated in the bill at the usual price of $1.25 per acre if without the rallroad 1imits and $2.50 an acre if within the 4| sald limits. At the present time the 1ands in question are without any come mercial value. Experiment In Deserts Wanted. “It should also be ‘stated that Mr. Burbank is now propagating these cac- t1, and selling the same to all comers at a reasonable price, but these plants are going into sections of California chiefly where their growth and propa- gation is not attended with any great expense or uncertainty. It is the view of the committee that it is most desirable to encourage these experd mentations in the parts of the arid and semi-arid southwest which are at this time practically deserts and now awalt development. If this encour agement demonstrates that these seo tions are suitable for the production of these cacti, the beneficial results will be of incalculable value to the nation.” The public lands committee in its report pays a high tribute to Mr. Bun ‘bank on its own behalf and it includes in its report, which has become & pub- lic document, a statement from David Starr Jordan of Stanford University concerning Mr. Burbank and spineless cactl. ‘What Dr. Jordan Says. Dr. Jordan has this to say: “In developing the spineless cactus for stock feeding, selections were made from the three hard northern species, Opuntia rafinesquii, O. messacantha, and O. vulgaris, the latter the com- mon prickly pear; these were crossed with O. tuna of Southern California, ficus indica from Alba, Spain, and with a small opuntia from Central America, almost thornless. “The cactus of all specles have smooth cotyledons, but the first bud 18 covered with thorns. These thorns have aleo been eliminated by selecting the smoothest individual seedlings ‘without crossing. Crossing in this case generally interrupts the process, Masestic Tueatre Wednesday and Thursday’s Program 3000 Feet of Pictures De Luxe How Washington Crossed the Delaware (Edison) The most intensely American subject ever filmed, full of excitement and patroitism.

Coming Soon, “The lllumination”, a Mest Beautiful Picture & 1t Brimgs out ™ wellfixed ancestral traits, but later to combine the best qualities of several species, crossing and selection must be resorted to. Examples seen were shoots of the original stock, prickly; the second generation, slightly prickly; the third without thorns; and later the)spicules even within the substance of /the cao tus have been removed, 8o asjto make the cactus very:excellent food! for cat- tle. This plant will have vety great value In the arid regions. “By crossing an extensive and ime tensive selection a cactus may be im- proved in varlous ways, besides being deprived of thorns and of the internal picules in six or less generations; these by means of cuttings may be multiplied rapldly to any extent, but the process, to be complete, generally takes longer. This thornless cactus should prove of very great value in the development of desert regions, as Arizona or Sonora, as the quality of food produce per acre is enormous. Its value is being already fully tested on a large scale near Idaho, in Cal- Ifornia and in the state of Victorfa, in Australia. It is evident that the thorn- less cactus cannot be expected to flourish as a wild plant on the desert, tor cattle and other browsing animals would ‘devour it rot and branch. Its effectiveness 1s as a forage plant, to be cut and thrown to cattle as green fodder. For this purpose it is ex- traordinarily abundant as to quantity, and at the same time most excellent as to quality, having a high nutritive value, exceeding in this respect most or all of ghe grasses.” NO DOUBT OF HER IDENTITY 8pirit of Woman Who Died In Auto- moblle Accldent Easlly Recognized E by Friend. “There's »pirit here,” gasped one of the speakers at a Spliritualistic meeting, “who seems to be very much oppreesed 1o ker breathing.
