OUT OF THE SADDLE, OUT OF 

 THE LAND. 



One proof that the opening of the 

 Panama Canal will rapidly fill the va- 

 cant lands of the northwest with Eu- 

 ropean farmers, is the fact that the 

 foreign population of Oregon already 

 has doubled in the past ten years, and 

 while there is cheap land there and in 

 Washington, yet most land in Califor- 

 nia suitable for truck gardening has 

 advanced in price so high or is now 

 under such intense cultivation that im- 

 migrants will pass it over and go into 

 the interior to take up the cheaper 

 land. 



Some of the crops grown by Italian 

 settlers near Stockton and Sacra- 

 mento, California, are astonishing. 

 These tillers of the soil, who are not 

 afraid to get down' on their knees in 

 an onion bed, will take more money 

 out of the northwest than will the 

 cow men and the sheep herders, who 

 will not get down out of the saddle to 

 work the soil, and who are bound to 

 disappear with the advent of the 

 humbler but more industrious immi- 

 grant.
