ration, and for those soldiers travelling
on army transports food viii be pre-
pared from the articles of subsistence
stores which compose the ration for
troops in garrison, varied by the sub
stitution of other articles of authorized
subsistence stores, the total cost of the
food consumed not to exceed "a cents
per day per man.
While the bacon ration has been re-
duced, the company messes as a rule are
usually over on that article, and the re-
duction will not work hardship on
the men. Coffee likewise has been cut
down somewhat, but tea has been added
to vary the beverage portion of the ra-
ton.
The field ration will also contain the
addition of baking powder, jam and
milk, and the haversack ration for
troops in the field in active campaign
when transportation is limited will be
increased by jam and milk.
In cases of emergency where it will
be impossible TO obtain the prescribed
articles of food an allowance of about
$12 per month will be provided for each
soldier, similar to that now provided
for the navy.

MANY CRITICS PRAISE
NINE. ARRAL' IS GENIUS

W. J. Henderson, America s greatest
authority on music, says: "With the
full development of the best of Schu-
bert the imperative necessity for clear
enunciation was made apparent to the
entire musical world. The Wagnerian
drama cried aloud for such enunciation,
and the result is that today no one
questions the claims of the words of
vocal music.
''On the contrary the claim that they
shall be clearly and beautifully enun-
ciated is not to be avoided
To those lovers of music in this city
the concert of Nine. Arral on Tuesday
evening will be living exemplifeation
of Henderson IS contention. For her
clear and perfect diction alone Nine.
Arral is deserving of and has received
the highest praise from the musical
critics of four continents.
The Herald (Auckland) of February
II, says: i" Nine. Arral possesses a phe-
nOm6ndl voice OIL extensive range, the
real singing voice; her coloratura is
magnificent, and she appears to be able
to do Just what she likes with her won
derful throat. She can reach with facil.
ity G in alt (Which she did in the Mig
non Polonaise in the last demi semi
quaver run of the cadenza), while her
middle and low notes are of very rich
quality and splendid carrying power.
Her high notes are characterized with
an immensely of volume and extraordi-
nary brilliancy, which simply electrify
the listener
To those who are lovers of high class
music, tomorrow night will be feast of
music never before presented here, and
in all probability never will be again.
That an artistic of Nine. Arral S rank
should break her voyage here should
be sufficient to induce every music
lover in this city to attend

TAHIT|AN PRIEST CAME
WITH FATHER DAMIEN

SAN FRANCISCO, June 1S.-A type
of the self-sacrifcing missionary priests
who have shed luster on the Catholic
church, arrived in San Francisco yester-
day by the steamship Mariposa from
Tahiti in the Society islands.
Father Christian Willimnes and
Father Damien, whose martyrdom in
the leper colony at Molokai, Hawaiian
islands, has given him a place in his.
tory, left Belgium together in 1870.
Father Damien went to Honolulu and
Father Willimnes to Tahiti. Until Will
limnes, now Vicar General of Tahiti,
reached this city yesterday he had not
since been outside of the Society is
lands.
Though seventytw years old, the
veteran missionary intends to return to
the place of his long labors as soon as
he has completed his attendance at
conference of the Society of the Sacred
Heart of Jesus in Belgium. He will
be the only surviving member of
party of six of that order which left
Belgium in 1870 for the islands of the
Pacific.
While in San Francisco Vicar Gen
eral Willimnes is the guest of Rev,
Joseph Guilbert of the Marist Fathers,
at the parish house of Notre Dame des
Victories on Bush street. Staying with
him there is also Rev. Father NJ. H.
O'Laverty of New Zealand, who, after
a sojourn for his health in the summer
warmth of Louisville, KY, (it is the
winter season now n Tahiti), will de
liver a series of lectures on the native
inhabitants of various islands of the
Pacific.
Vicar General Willimnes has had the
usual experiences of missionary priests
in uncivilized lands He has made him
self a part of the life of the natives,
eaten the food they have eaten and
accommodated himself TO the conditions
of their existence. For as many as
fourteen years, he said yesterday, he
had not tasted meat, eating only the
native fruits on which the natives of
Tahiti lived.

Mr.. Day said that the $4,000 acres
of land filed on by the state last year
has all been leased to wheat grow
|ers, and every mial brings inquiries
for land from those who wish to en-
gage in this class of farming. Great
interest, he says, has been awakened
all over the southeast. Wheat was
successfully grown quite a distance
above Marysville, in Fremont coun-
ty, this year, thus opening up great
possibilities for a large section of
country that was supposed to be of
no value only for grazing.
Mr.. Day recently visited the prof.
ect of the Idaho Irrigation company
In Blaine county. He said great &C
tivity is being shown by the J. G.
White company, who are moving lots
of dirt, and from appearances, will
complete the reservoir and canals on
time.

TAFT GOING TO HAVANA.

Gomez,

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-Presi-
dent-elect Taft will be the first
choice of the people as far as is
known to leave the country between
the date of his election and his in
auguration to the presidency of the
LA.ted States, if he carries out his
intention to visit Havana in January
next to attend the Inauguration of
General Gomez as president of Cuba.
The first intimation received here
that Mr.. Taft was contemplating a
trip to Cuba came in Associated Press
dispatches from Cincinnati and Ha-
vana.
President Roosevelt left the coun-
try during his term of office, when he
sailed from New Orleans to Hampton
Roads aboard a warship about three
years ago, it being necessary for the
vessel to go outside the three-mile
limit. He is the only president, it is
said, who has even technically been
outside the country during his occu-
pancy of the White House.

DRY FARMING SUCCESS.
$4,000 Acres of State Lands Leased
to Wheat Growers.

From the Statesman.
George Day, special agent of the
state land board, who recently re-
turned from a trip to the southeast
ern part of the state, is more enthu-
siastic than ever about the great sue
cess that is being achieved by the
farmers on arid land without irriga-
ton. He said yields of 40 bushels of
wheat to the acre are quite common
and that yields on the dry farm
which he saw will run from 25 to A
bushels to the acre. The barley
yield is about the same, while
oats will 60 several bushels better.
The wheat, he said, is so much bet
ter than that grown on irrigated
land that it finds ready market at
an advance of 10 cents per bushel.
He did not recall the name of the
variety usually grown but he said it
is sown in the fall.
Near Downey, Mr.. Day said, fully
100000 bushels of dry land wheat
had been harvested this season, and
the yield near American Falls ex-
ceeds 100000 bushels In Oneida
county, where dry farming has been
practiced for several years and a
large acreage is cultivated, the total
production is much larger. The
Rexburg bench, he said, where the
state secured large acreage some
time ago, is proving banner section.
Farmers there secured from 35 to A
bushels of wheat per acre, and of
course are more than pleased with
the profitable results. 1t has been
fully demonstrated, he said, that
thousands of acres in Idaho are the
equal if not superior to the Palouse
country for growing wheat without
irrigation. He predicted that before
many years the wheat crop from dry
farms would be one of Idaho's lead
ing products.

STATE PRINTERY.

At first glance a state print shop
to handle all of the states business,
instead of farming it out as at pres
ent, looks fine and a lot of people
have jumped at the bait. But mix
politics with it and where are you?
The answer is obvious, a state print
Shop would be an absolute failure
and one of the greatest CRAFTS the
state could establish. With politics
eliminated and a civil service scheme
established it ought to be a success.

These figures indicate the sum
that will 60 out of the banks Of
Utah and Idaho today and Monday to
the several thousand farmers who are
engaged in the beet growing indus
try.
In addition to this amount the 10
factories sent out close upon $780,
600 as pay rolls to the factory hands
on the 10th. The sum paid the beet
growers will be in payment for all
beets delivered at the factories dur
ing the month Of October. The lin
tied supply of beets delivered in Sep
TENDER was paid out October Is. On
December Is, the final payments for
beets will be made, and it will be
even more than that now being dis
bursed for the reason that the usual
storms in the latter part of October
threw great part of the delivery
into November, so that instead of
great bulk of the money being paid
in November, as usual, it will be di-
vided this year almost equally be-
tween November and December.
The greater part of the currency
to meet the beet payments is drawn
out of the three banks here that the
Utah-Idaho Sugar Company does it's
business with, Mccormick & Co., the
State Bank of Utah and the Deseret
National Bank, all of whom have
been busy shipping currency to the
country banks located around the fac
tories, as each factory pays for it's
own beets with checks on its local
banks. The Amalgamated Sugar
draws it's checks on the First Ma
tional Bank of Ogden.
The temporary withdrawal of so
much money has increased the strin-
gency, which has been reported by
most of the banks of late weeks, but
this stringency will only be temper
airy, as the money paid the farmers
will soon find it's way back into the
channels of trade, and be used for
the payment of debts in this city,
Ogden and the other main centers.
Another advantage to the business
situation is found in the fact that

Joyous Wedding Party.

The marriage of Miss Susie Tenney
and Mr.. Fred. Thiering, Wednesday
evening of last week, was a very
pleasant family gathering. for the
fifty or sixty people presentswere all
taken into the family party for the
occasion and made to feel very much
at home. AS the bride and groom
did net start on their journey for
their future Dakota home until the
following days, there were no fare
wells nor fearful faces, and the we'll
packed rooms made it necessary for
the guests to touch elbows and be
sociabe and informal.
The bridal party appeared soon
after eight o'clock, the bride in a
most becoming costume of white,
her n1aid-her sister Flossie attired
in pale blue and carrying white car
nations. The groom was attended
by his brother Frank as best man,
the party facing Rev. G. w. Elliott,
before the tastefully decorated arch
in the northwest corneraof the par
lor. The ceremony of the ring was
used, Miss Minnie Hanson Iplaying a
soft accompaniment while the vows
were plighted. After hearty con-
gratuiatio1s were offered .sthe snil-
ing pair, small tables were provided
for those of the guests not members
of the bridal party and their families.
who filled a smaller room adjoining

The array of wedding gifts in one

by the guests and included almost a
complete outfit of table service and
silverware, and offered eloquent tes-
timony to the warm esteem in which
the bride and groom are held by a
host Of friends, quite a number liv-
ing in other parts Of the country
and unable to be present.
