Back From Canada

James SOrrebsen, whose familiar
face has BEEN missed from Ordway
since last September, when he went
to join the Riddle boys 10 Canada, re-
turned drst of the week after spend
ing several days In Pueblo dUctOring u
cold.
He arrived 10 Calgary September 1,
and found the Riddle brothers, Walter
and Clarence, located $50 miles west
Of that city aud about twenty. five
miles from q trading point 10 the
summer time aud twelve 10 the win
ter. when the river can be crossed on
the Ice. The distance from market
seems to be Mr. Sorrensen's greatest
objection to the Canada country,
though he believes II to be q good
place for young man willing to put
up with backwoods life for u while.
Walter Riddle recently purchased
100 acres cleared land for Sl2 80 per
acre, part Of it being under cultiva-
tion, the balance in Wild grass from
one to three feet 10 height. Stock Of
all kinds winter we'll without shelter
and the snow falls always in still
weather. the wind seldom blowing for
more than three hours at y time.
No snow had fallen when he left on
December Is, and the thermometer
had not registered as low az on previ-
Gus years. Jim went prepared for
cold weather and says his German
socks and such were never unpacked,
though the Ice on the river measured
fifteen inches in thickness.
The soil there Is black and as an ex-
ample of its productiveness he related
the following: Early 10 July the boys
planted forty acres to oats aud har-
vested 5000 bushels that went IS
pounds to the bushel. A potato patch
of half an acre produced seven wagon
loads and the wagon carried high side
boards. This was what Mr.. Sorrensen
said was poor farming for the patch
OF potatoes had little or no cultivation
during the season. The principal
crops grown In this new country are
oats. barley and rye. Woolen clothing
is much cheaper there than In Colora-
do, hut groceries are higher.
Mr.. Sorrensen Is coutented to re-
main In Ordway and has resumed
work at the J. R. Thomas ranch.

valuable information which will be Of
much use to him in instructing men Of
the local naval militia in the methods Of
handling all kinds of guns
THE trip was very interesting. and I
am glad that I was ordered to this duty
he said. There were eighteen naval
militia officers from various parts of the
country on this duty, and all Of them
received instruction. l was there prin-
cipally as an observer. and was permit
ted to visit various parts of the ships
during the firing. l was given no specific
duty at the battle stations during the
target practice.
The early part of the work was de-
voted to 'spotting' practice at the old
San Marcos in Tangier sound. Here the
naval militia officers were used as spot
ters. being required to tell whether the
shells fell short, went too far. whether
they were right or left of the spot fired
at. and how much out of the way they
were. This particular part of the work
was very interesting.
Much of the time l was in the fight
