when the animal paused, Mr.. Shelton
placed his hands on the animals head
and raised himself up, drawing the
horn out of his own head or rather
pushing his head off of the horn that
impaled him. His throat was torn
so he could never swallow anything
afterwards, but a silver tube inserted
in the throat enabled him to pour
liquids into the esophagus and the
natural action of the, organ passed it
to the stomach.
With this means of nutrition he
conducted his freighting business by
bull teams for number of years.
He did the cooking for the camp,
and delighted in baking camp bread
on huge frying pan stood up on
a slant between two beds of GOALS
After his injury he talked in a jerky
way with nasal twang, and used to
boast that if he had fifty pounds of
-four and frying pan six feet across
he could bake it all up in half an
hour
Mr.. Shelton met with terrible
accident at the Snake river ferry,
where the lower bridge now stands
west Of Blackfoot. One Of his out
fits was on the ferry and he was
standing by the rail when the bulls
became frightened and made a rush
forward as the ferry struck the shore.
Shelton was caught between the rail
and the water barrel at the side, and
his abdomen was torn open. He re-
tanned his presence of mind. despatch
ed messenger to Malad for physi-
clan, gave orders like Lord Nelson
at Trafalgar, and recovered entirely
from the mangling. The old boat
was dismantled and sold to farmer
few years ago.
Henry thought he was the greatest
curiosity he ever saw and often
wondering why he should elect to
take his grub through his neck, in
stead of through his mouth, like us
common people. We sat up nearly
all night roasting potatoes and eating
slap jacks. After we had associated
with the spuds for about week, we
began to feel almost like human
beings.

NEWS FROM WASHINGTON
French Wants Square Deal for
Settlers

French Wants Square Deal for
Settlers
WASHINGTON, D. c. Marsh "a
The committee on arid lands has re-
ported a substitute bill for the bills
introduced by Representative French
and others in the house for an ex-
tension of the number or payments
on reclamation projects from ten to
twenty. Mr.. French is pleased with
part of the bill as reported. but not
satisfied with other features. He
feels that the interior department I'M
der the bill is given too much author
ity and while the interior department
has the same authority under the
present law, he desires that more re-
sponsibility be placed upon the set
tiers.
Protection for Entrymen on dry
Farms
The secretary of the interior has
made a favorable report to the COM
mittee on public lands in the house
on the bill introduced by Represents
tive Addison T. Smith, giving pre-
ference right to qualified entrymen,
who make application for the desig-
nation of land for entry under the
enlarged homestead act. Under the
existing law prospective entryman
who searches out a desirable piece
of land and makes application to have
it designated for entry under the en-
larged homestead act may, after the
land is designated, be confronted
with the fact that some one else has
reached the land office and entered
the land he may have selected.
The prospective entryman, who ap-
plies for the designation of the land
has no assurance that, when the land
is designated he will secure 1t. The
proposed law advocated by Congress
man Smith Will protect hundreds or
prospective entrymen who go to the
trouble of locating desirable land so
that when the land is designated
their entry will be confirmed.
Under the proposed law record
will be made on the plats of the
local land office. of the application
for designation, and when the land
is designated the etnryman will be
notified that his application has been
allowed. This is one Of the many
changes proposed by Mr.. Smith in
the land laws intended to protect
those who are endeavoring to secure
a home on the public domain.

Hog Cholera Serum
For the Gem State

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 81
Under a special appropriate made
by congress, the department of agri-
culture is preparing. to ship to Idaho
large quantities Of hog cholera SER
UNI, for distribution among the farm
ers, who's swine are infected. The
appropriation was secured largely
through the efforts of Senator Brady,
a member of the committee on agri-
culture and the senator has been
promised by the secretary of agri-
culture that Idaho will get large
share of the benefit fro mthe $4,000
appropriation now available. The
senator is urging the secretary to
send several experts from the bureau
of animal industry to Idaho to dem
onstrate to the farmeres proper met
hods of using hog cholera. He has
furnished the department list Of
counties in which the disease is pre-
valent and the department will act
along lines suggested by Senator
Brady.
Extending Time Of Payments
The senate recently passed a bill
which allows settlers on government
irrigation projects 20 years instead
of 10 to pay for water. AS the bill
was reported to the senate it re-
quired payment of per cent of the
water charge at the time of fllling
entry, or making water right applica-
ton. On the motion Of Senator
Borah this provision was amended SO
as to reduce the initial payment to
2 per cent. As the bill now stan h,
land under government projects may
be entered whenever water Is avail
able and the initial payment of per
cent will be made when the charge
per acre Is established.
Pensions for Indian Fighters
Senator Brady has introduced a
bill extending the provision of the
indian war pension act to all suryi-
vors of late indian wars in Idaho and
states, who are not now
to pension from the govern
ment. The Brady bill extends the
present law to cover all persons who
served in indian wars as late az 1868,
and applies not only to indian fighters
who enlisted in the service of the
United States. but to those who ser
we'd in private organizations formed
to protect white settlers against hos
tile tribes. The passage of this bill
would grant pensions to several hun
dred old indian fighters now living
In Idaho.
To Teach Irrigation
AS the agricultural appropriation
bill passed the house 1t carried $685.
900 to enable the department of agri-
culture to give FIRST hand instruction
to farmers on government irrigation
projects. This appropriation is In
tended to be used in paying the ex-
penses of irrigation and farming ex-
perts, who are to confer with the
farmers, showing proper methods Of
irrigation to those who have diff
Guilty in applying water to the lands.
