John w Baker, OF tie 81 Infantry, was
encamped temporarily in a wild region OF
interior Jolo. The Americans had learned
to fear particularly tie wild rushes upon
their camps that these Moros frequently
make. while a scouting party is
bivouacked at some quiet streamside for
lunch the fanatics break from the brush
near by and rush the camp like so many
Wild bulls. Permanent camps are sur
rounded by high fences OF barbed wire to
prevent this, yet It happened December 6.
Captain Baker and his following were not
thoroughly surprised, as these American
troops never left their guns out of their
hands when encamped I'm Moro country.
So the onrushing Moros were met with
deadly volley from the American rifles.
The result was tho killing Of fifteen ma
tives. Two American soldiers and one
native scout were killed in the engage

The story Of Datto All has a different

Mindanao, one Of the richest regions in all
the Philippines. There he had held undis-

father before him lie was the hereditary
datto and all the people willingly paid
homage 10 him. He was the pOssessor Of
a score Of wives, and taxes from all the
regions were levied at his call. When the
Americans came into COtabatO Valley they
had the audacity to tell Ali that he must
limit himself to one wife They went even
further than this. and asked All the chief
to whom taxes had always been paid, to
pay taxes TO the government. Such things
were unthinkable An idea Of this sort
had never been presented in the environ

always lived From the standpoint Of this

So slow is news in reaching the outside
world from this isolated community that
the reports Of later engagements, which
probably have taken place, are not yet In

this government has upon its hands very
merry little scrap, and that the pot Is still
boiling.
There may be more trouble in Jolo,

just received from him, but l do not eX-
pect IT, Most OF the opposition TO disarma-

the arms in the district. The government

How much land should a man have VINO
wants 10 take up farming or vegetable
growing?" Mr. Ruetenk was asked.
We'll" he replied, 81 am of the opinion
that ten or twelve acres is more than the
average man can handle. Probably from
three TO FIVE acres, farmed by modern in
tensve methods, would bring more for the
investment than a larger area. For berries
and small fruits probably five acres would
be about the right amount. For general
farming he would need from fifty to one
hundred acres. according to the character
Of the soil"
For general farming this man does not
believe more than SO or Sl00 an acre should
be paid u furnish proper return on the
investment For garden land perhaps gov
or $500 an acre might proftably be invested.
Ruetenik points out continually that indi-
yiduality counts more than the price or the
land I'm the management OF any sized tract
OF ground. Another man would probably
fall far short of $1,000 an acre year were
he TO take over the management of this
twelve-acre farm on Schaaf Road.
"To be a success In this or any other
business Il is necessary for man TO keep
constantly abreast of the times" says Mr..
Ruetenik. "He must observe the results OF
his work and try to make better showing
each year. / believe in a man being con-
seryatlve and going slowly with his ex-
periments I believe also that he should
keep constantly at them. aiming to I'M
