H0MESTEADERS Benefit
BY RECENT DECISION OF sEcRE.
TARY OF THE INTERIOR.
Will Be Credited With Continuous
Residence and Cultivation Of Lands
Occupied Under Special Permits. :.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.-A decision has recently
been handed down by the secretary of
the interior to the effect that per-
sons, who have or who may hereafter
apply for and make homestead entry
on the national forests under the for
est homestead act. will be credited at
final proof for continuous residence
upon and cultivation of lands occu-
pied under special use permits, is
sued by the forest service, prior to
actual restoration of the lands to en-
try.
This ruling of the secretary rees-
tablishes the original Interpretation
placed upon the law by ex-Secretary
Garfield. but which was reversed by
decision promulgated January l.,
1910. 1t is the opinion of forestry Of
ficials that the new decision will ma
terially benefit all bona fide settlers
on the national forests. since it places
them upon an equal footing with those
making homes upon the public do
main. Considerable delay is frequent
ly encountered between the time agri-
amined and can be opened to entry.
In order to prevent any hardship ON
account Of this delay it is said to have
been a policy Of long standing with
the forest service to issue to the ap-
plicant free special use permit au-
thorizing him to occupy and use the
land pending it's restoration to entry.
This permit in itself was of great ad-
vantage to the homesteader since it
enabled him to improve and cultivate
the land. The added benefit of be-
ing able to accelerate patent by hav-
ing their time and labor credited to
them at final proof will undoubtedly
prove boon to large number of
settlers seeking permanent homes on
the national forests.

BY U. S. Army Surgeon for the In
ternatIonaI News Service.


NEW YORK. August 21.-In the
American civil war eight soldiers
died of disease to one from wounds.
Experts expect that in the present
general European struggle not more
than three win fall victim to sick
ness to one killed on the field of
battle.
Such is the advance Of army santa
tion and army surgery in fifty years.
The Americans and the Jananese
have been the leaders. The United
States army hospitals have installed
many remarkable innovations since
the Spanish American war with its
dreadful lesson in the danger of ty-
phoid and these new ideas have been
adopted by the army surgeon of old
world powers.
The modern high-power, quick-fir-
ing military rife and the develop
ment in artillery will have much to
do with the change.
Those who die will die more quick
ly. Gangrene and infection will be
practically unknown quantities, II Is
thought.
Before the Russo-Japanese conflict
the armies the world over used a
high calibre bullet, made of un-
sheathed lead and creased to over
come friction in the barrel
The muzzle velocity was less than
half that of the missiles now en-
ployed
Then. too, bayonet and sabre
charges were more common. These
resulted in hideous wounds, very diff
4 ficult for surgeons to handle.
The bullets which are flying in
Europe today are of less diameter
than the ordinary lead pencil. They
are jacketed with nickel, lead OF
steel and have tremendous velocity.

was almost inevitable, the grease be
