SON KEEPS PLEDGE
TO DYING FATHER
CONVEYS MOTHERS REMAINS
ON HORSEBACK FROM A LONE
LY GRAVE IN THE DESERT.

Roseburg, Ore, Nov. 1G.-Bearing
with him on horseback, securely tied
to the pommel of his saddle, a mar
row box containing a skull and a lew
crumbling bones, all that remained
of the body of his mother, Henry
Johnson arrived in Roseburg at sun
set He had travelled from the o,d
Loise-Kelton trail and was on MS way
to his ranch in one of the small and
isolated valleys OF southwestern
Douglas county, to keep a promise
that his mother should rest beside
her husband and son in the burial
lot near their present home.
Mr.. Johnson's mother died from
fever twenty years ago on the jour
ney in a wagon from Iowa to ORE
eon. Alone on the desert, far from
human habitation, he and his father
sadly fashioned grave, which they
carefully marked. A rough diagram
of the immediate surroundings w>s
made, after which the boy and his
father continued on the long trail
across deserts and mountains, unti
they reached their destination IN
valley on the Oregon coast.
The father died two years ago, ana
his last request to his son was that
he return to Idaho as soon as posi-
bic and obtain the body of his moth
er, that 1t might rest beside him.
The son started on his long Jour
ney four months ago, and, although
he possessed the rough diagram
made long ago he had great diff
Guilty in finding the spot.
Il found that many changes had Ia
ken place in Idaho since I came over
the trail nearly twenty years ago"
said Mr.. Johnson in speaking Of his
journey. when We passed that way
the Boise-Kelton trail extended
through the great unbroken desert,
covered with sagebrush and with no
habitatlon. On my recent visit
found that the desert was dotted with
many towns which had an air of
prosperity about them, and the lands,
formerly unproductive of any vegeta'
tion except sagebrush. were Dolng r.
rigated by canals and splendid crops
were being produced.

Rurley and Rock Creek before search
for the bones Of my mother was re-

The return trip has been sad
and lonely one. After securing the

great forests, the mountains, the
open plains, prompted me TO make

And Still Problem Grew.

Still. at the gins, with the Increase
in the crops and the added amount
to he gained. the problem of what
to do with the seed grew; and one
recalls now with thrill that pro-
gressive farmer in a barren and a
thirsty land who hauled all the seed
from his gin in the fall and spread
It over n sandy field as fertilizer. The
nelghbor farmers stopped their lazy
teams outside the fence and stood
un in the wagons to laugh and have
fun a. the expense of the man who
was trying to fertilize his field with
cotton soed-Cotton seed. mind you'
The next spring they looked thought
full. and they spread cotton seed on
their own fields before the year WAS
over. It was rather easy, after an
other man had blazed the trail.
Yet the people as whole were
slow to learn.
And now the whole land Is filled
with cotton seed oil mills. Buyers
Of cotton seed are in all the country
towns, and the competition among
them IS eager and endless. They
are waiting down the country roads
to meet the farmer coming into town,
and they get in and ride with him,
and talk crops and alfalfa, and make
him bids on his load of seed. In ev-
cry town are warehouses in which
the buyer may store the seed until
1t can be shipped; and the farmer
makes as much on this product OF MS
cotton field today as he maHes on
the cotton Itself, possibly. It may
be stated with confidence that no
farmer or ginner IS seeking a place
20 throw away the accumuations of
the once dcspised seed.
The use OF the oil? There was a
time when Il was shipped TO Europe
and returned TO us badly disguised
as olive oil, hut now there Is no
need for any disguise, though the
olive oil OF commerce undoubtedly
had its origin in the southern cotton
field. But the housewife has Outgrown
her preiudices, and frankly uses cot
ton seed oil straight from the mills
TO make her mayonnaise; and as
substitute for high-priced butter in
cake. and for all the uses OF the
household for which she once was
indebted TO the packing houses. The
produce of the oil mills was at first
received slowly and with hesitation;
hut now the barriers are down.

~ EkH APIS the chief trait of King
Edward VII. was tact. He was
the master of form, of fash.
ion. of etiquette. He was an
embodiment of that much misused
word "gen,lcman,' an incarnation Of
the conventional and the correct. He
was high priest of the gospel of GUS
tom With him courtesy was a fine
art and usage was the highest authori-
ty. While his life knew many scan
dals. they were so dccorous that they
were forgiven. He was the gentleman
even in his vices. AS Prince of Wales
his role was difficult one-difficult in
the sense that. while he was next to
the throne and often called upon to
represent the throne, Yet he must never
overstep the bounds and assume any
of the prcrogatives of the crown. The
universal testimony is that he was let
ter perfect in the role. AS king he
showed another aspect of the same
quality. lie was his own foreign min
lister. the first diplomat of Europe.
Here lie was in a larger field of form,
the etiquette Of nations. 1t was the
one field which by habit and training
he was best fitted to fill. His nice
observance of the proprieties extend
ed to internal affairs. While he was
king in fact as we'll as name, he never
went beyond the close limits that free
England had set about his office. To
Put it in q word, he never made breaks.
Despite his punctilions regard for
the formaliti.s. it is said that the late
