IN CAMP WITH THE 1ST HAWAI-
Ian BRIGADE, NEAR JONES
RANCH HOUSE, Oct. 18.-Combined
maneuvers for all the mobile troops
in the Hawaiian department viii
start one day later than was origin
ally planned. Instead of hitting the
grit" next Wednesday morning, the
three regiments forming the LIST Ha-
waiian brigade will not start their
round.the-isIand march until Thurs
day morning. From that date until
the end Of the month, foot, horse and
wagon soldiers will be on the go, and
some decisive actions should be
fought between the Red invaders and
the defending Blues. ~
The start Of the brigade hike has
been postponed In order to allow a
day for the transformation OF the
present maneuyer camp near Jones
ranch house into a field camp. The
comfortable pyramidal tents now oc-
cupied by the soldiers will be struck
and sent back to the posts of the va
rious regiments, and shelter tents
viii take their places. Camp equip
age will be cut to a minimum, for
with the limited transportation avail
able. il is essential that all troops
travel light.
With the LIST and 25th Infantry it
is a comparatively simple matter to
cut down their camps to the field re-
Quirements, but with the End this re-
quires q shipment of excess equip
age to Fort Shafter, and II viii take
some time for the men to make the
necessary preparations Had the or
iginal schedule been adhered to, the
soldiers would have hadf to put in

next week, after reinforced brigade
exercises were over. getting tentage
and excess kits packed for shipment.
and at the request Of the brigade
commander General Funston set all
the department exercises one day In
advance.
Exercises Valuable
General Macomb and his officers
are Of the opinion that the brigade
maneuvers, which come to amend to-
day, have been of great value in the
training Of both officers and men,.
They have afforded an opportunity.

mands than would ordinarily fall to

When Major E. V. Smith, command
ing the Red army. was handed his
special situation yesterday. when his
force was several miles north Of Soho
field Barracks, he Immediately sent
mounted signalmen back into the
enemy's country, with instructions TO
occupy the high water tower at Cast
ner, and the crows nest of the wire
less mast right in the post, and with
In a stones throw Of the maneuver
camp. to keep informed of the enc
my's movements. So promptly did
the mounted scouts execute this
move, that they were In position
long before the two Blue regiments
under Colonel Kennon had effected a
junction for concerted attack. and be-
fore the signalmen were captured they
had accomplished their mission.
The. Blues didn't expect to find hos
tile patrols waving signal flags under
their very noses, and for this reason
the capture of the man in the wire
less crows next was quite amusing.
Colonel kenncn, commanding the
Bfues, halted his headquarters staff
within hundred yards of the wire
less pole, and soon afterwards, MOTTO
ing the signalman wigwagging from
his perch high aloft, sent an officer
over to find out what was the last
message that had been received. The
soldier, Private Rowland, of C Co, I'd
Infantry, looked over the edge Of the
nest and informed the officer that he
was a Red. When ordered to come
down and be taken prisoner, he re-
piled that the Blues would have to
come and get him first. Colonel Ken
non sent a squad with instructions to
shoot the daring signalman of his
I,erch, but when the muzzles of eight
lifies were pointing skyward, the Red
scout said he supposed he was caught,
and came down the mast. The sol
diers below, evidently remembering
the destructive force of the blank
cartridge paper bullet, didn't actually
fire. but would have done so II the
Red had been backward about COM
ing downward.
Horses Are Scarce -, H.
all regiments have been rather in
the background this week, because Of
the scarcity Of horses. After months
of training for this special and Inn
portant work most of the scouts were
dismounted at the eleventh hour to
provide horses for officers and order
lies.
General Macomb introduced some
thing new into maneuver warfare yes

valuable in future The machine guns
do not fire blank ammunition, and
formerly, with the old service revoly-

the Red forces At Haleiwa with or
ders to take up position on the crest

THE COST OF RAISING HORSES.

Reports have been received from
about ten thousand correspondents
of the Bureau of Statistics of the De-
partment of Agriculture upon the cost
of raising colts on farms to the age
of three years. The average for the
United States is found to be S104. O6;
or, if we deduct the value Of work
done by the horse before he has pass
ed his third year, namely S7.52. the
net cost is S96. "a; this is 100 per cent
of the selling value of such horses,
$136. II.
The cost varies widely by States,
from an average of 500. 80 for New
Mexico, ST.. SO for Wyoming, and
S82. At for Texas, to S156. 90 for Rhode
Island, $149. SO. for Connecticut, and
Sal. 80 for Massachusetts.
1temized, the cost is made up as
follows: Service fee, 49, 95; value of
time lost by mare in foaling, $40. O6;
breaking to halter, 81. %; veterinary
service, $2.04; care and shelter,

For the first time, we think, in the

dairy COWS we're received by express.
These came last Tuesday and we're
shipped from Watertown, Wis, to

They were all registered Holsteins,
70 in number. There were but 65
when they started, but five calves
were born on the way. everyone came
through in fine condition. Shipment
was made in four days over the Mil

"a per cent is charged to feeds, 16 per
cent to care and shelter, and 30 per
cent to other items, as enumerated
above.
AS more than half the cost of raising

chargeable to feeds, ii is readily
observed how important is the in
fuence of variation in prices of feed

NEW STOCK BREEDERS.

Groundwork for addition of two
more splendid industries in the line
of blooded stock in Lewis county has
just been laid by the bringing in of
registered Percheron horses and Red
Polled cattle by L. P. Schumacher.
The stock has just been received and
taken to Mr.. Schumacher farm on
Deep Greek, near Curtis, II miles
southwest of Chehalis. Mr.. Schu-
macher, who for the past 10 years,
has been in Alaska, bought the Car
rither's farm last summer. The
place contains 342 acres and with this
area, much of which is under cultiva
ton in high state, it is proposed
to engage extensively in raising of
fine stock. The herd of cattle in
cludes 81 COWS, 10 calves and bull,
all of which are of the highest breed
ing of the Red Polled kind. They
were selected with greatest care from
| the Clark show herd at Boise. Ida,
and represent heavy investment.
The horses include eight registered
Percheron mares from three to five
years of age each, two of them being
imported from France. A splendid
imported stallion that will be three
years old in May, Kyrie by name,
which weighs at this time more than
ton, heads the bunch. Some of the
horses we're secured from Ruby of
Portland, others from Warren of
Warrenton. Originally most of them
came from Iowa.
Mr.. Schumacher is enthusiastic
over the possibilities of making a
success of the horse and cattle bust
ness in this section, as his investment
which will run into many thousands
of dollars for his farm and the stock
would indicate. With the present
ruling high price for draft horses
and high prices prevailing for beef
he believes that with such splendid
kinds of stock as he has secured he
can make great success of his enter
prise.
However, of greater Importance
locally is the fact that after looking
over the northwest, Mr.. Schumacher
should select farm in Lewis county
where land is known to be cheaper
and just as good. Coming in here of
such an enterprise is significant in
many ways for the future of the stock
industry of this section of the state.
