Of money and business the auto industry
brings to Sioux City, and the number OF
different makes that are sold. It's only
a short time 6 that an auto was con-
sidered O luxury. Now it's known to be

sition. Look at our large and small stores
that have auto delivery, n some ave

Even the Interstate Commerce commits
sion has taken up with the railroads the
matter of building larger box cars so they
can put more auto cars In each load. The
autos are much cheaper now than years
ago and they are many points better than
ever n the accessories are way cheaper
and better. even the gasoline that used
to cost 20 cents a gallon can be bought for
Il cents a gallon. If a man and his fam

To Increase supply Of Salmon.

Important experiments have recent
ly been made by the fisheries expert
for British Columbia in connection
with the hatchery operations. Last
year at Seaton lake, instead of plac-
ing all the sockeye salmon eggs in
trays, as has been the custom hereto
fore, a plan was adopted more in
keeping with the natural methods fol-
lowed by the fish. The eggs, after
having been inoculated with the
lymph, we're buried under FIVE to sew
en- inches of sand and gravel. Over
100000 ova were thus treated in tanks
especially made therefor, and as a re-
suit $4,000 healthy fry have been
taken out with the possibility of more
to follow. This is a splendid record,
as compared with the old pan sys-
tenn, and 1t is believed by the experts
that the 4new method will revolutions
ize the business of the hatcheries.

War Horses In Action.

1t will probably surprise you, said q re-

cavalry horse usually enjoys a battle at

much courage in It. He will chafe and
stamp with impatience while waiting for

When his rider falls he viii dash along
with his fellows and crash as CALAMITY

Light Brigade scores of riderless horses

a horse has put his rider right when he
has mistaken an order, and has gone
faultlessly through a maneuver In spite
OF the efforts of his mistaken master to
make him do the wrong thing.
No, the process OF training Is neither
long nor difficult. The first step Is to ac-
custom the horse to the sound of firing at
on the ground with legs tied. and while in
this position a pistol Is fired close to his
ear, over his back, between his legs, and
so on, undl his fear is overcome. After; a

ever, Is by nc means so great as II was.
In the Eighteenth century $50 horses fell
In battle for every 100 men; from 1900 to
1856 the proportion had fallen to 40; n
approximately 112 horses to 100 men. In
some charges, however, the proportion has
been greater, as In that Of the Light Brig
