CORRAL CAYUSES
At EPHRATA
HORSEMEN TAKE LIVES IN
HANDS BY RIDING AT TOP
SPEED OVER FROZEN PLAINS
WILD HORSES POORLY FED.

Ephrata, Jan. 3.-Central Wash
ington horsemen are joining forces at
this season and rounding up range
horses that earlier in the year gave
their saddle horses the chase of their
lives and then foiled them in at
tempts to corral them. Because Of
the poor condition of the range at
this time of the year the wild horses
are poorly fed and are easily run
down and corralled by the granted,
well-kept COW ponies.
The great expanse or arid land
south and west of Ephrata is the
scene of one of the last roundups of
the times, as the wild horse is slowly
vanishing from the plains of the west.
Range riders daily take their lives
in their hands by dashing after the
wild horses at breakneck speed
through frozen areas honeycombed
with desert badger holes. The recent
thaw and freeze have made the side
hills slippery and the gritty COW
ponies keep their feet with difficulty
Heavy fogs hang over the grazing
lands and riders are often lost when
night falls and Homecoming time ar
rives.
Horsemen in this district have
combined forces and hired a camp
wagon and cook to follow the riders.
Camp is moved during the day and
the hardy horsemen sleep under the
stars in their blankets at night.

HEARD FROM

BROTHER SAYS EXPLORER AND
WIFE ARE IN RETIREMENT

FOR CLAIM TO DISCOVERY.

Cook, declared today that Mrs. Cook
has joined her husband and that he
is in communication with them Mrs
Cook is asserted to have the explor-
er's original records of his north
pole exploration in her possession.
"Dr. Cook has by no means aban-
doned his intention to prove con-
clusively, despite the verdict of the
Copenhagen university, that he
reached the north pole,' said his
brother, land the detractors will
have a pretty bill to pay.
THE talk that Mrs. Cook is es-
tranged from her husband and that
she contemplates suit for separa-
ton, with large alimony. is unwar-
ranted Mrs. Cook is standing by
her husband and will continue to do
so. Just now she is of Unreasonable
comfort to him and together they are
planning and working for the future
l have positive information that Dr.
Cook and wife will publicly appear
together and that then there will be
a change of feeling. 1t may be only
few weeks and it may be months
before they appear publicly again.
That all depends on how long it re-
quires DR.. Cook to fully substantiate
his claims"
Mr.. Cook declined to say whether
DR.. and Mrs. Cook were in this coun-
try or abroad.

seems strange that this should be
the case, when we still have SO

In our section we have thousands
of acres that | will venture to say
will grow as good winter wheat as
any of the Canadian land, to which
so many of our good homebuilders
and citizens are hocking. Some
of this land, tried simply as an ex-

winter wheat without irrigation.

HOW TO MAKE AUTO TIRES LAST

strain on the tires If the tires rub the
curb they become worn. Keep out of
street car tracks. Steel rails cut the
tires.
Always apply the gauge to know
that there is sufficient air. In applying
the clutch do it in such a manner that
the car won't start with a jerk. Jerk

Remember to use talcum in the casing

structions as railroad tracks, bridges
and street crossovers at an angle.

Would I advise any youngster to
take up catching In preference to any
other position on a ball team? Well,
no-not unless the chap himself is
wrapped up In the position and finds
that he can play there better than
any other place. Catching comes nat
ural to some men, and unless a player
feels that he Is intended by nature to
become backstop he should not
tackle the position or he will not rise
above the ordinary.
Besides being the hardest worker
on the team, his position is the most
dangerous on the ball field. In or
der to be a successful pad and mask
artist one must require a cool, clear
head and an intimate knowledge of the
game. He must know the strength
and weakness OF every batter; he must
possess a good arm and a brain capa-
bic Of outguessinG the other chaps.
The knowledge OF the batter's weak
ness gives the catcher n great advan-
tage, for he can tip of to the pitcher
just where and what to throw. He
knows bow many balls it is safe to
waste In lying in wait for a runner
to steal before trying for the man at
the bat. he can ofteS force the bat
