BUFFALO IN IOWA.
Herd Seen in This State as Late as
1868.


1t is we'll known that the prairies
of Iowa were the grazing ground of
large herds of buffaloes in the early
days before they were all killed or
driven away by Indians and white
hunters. But even as late as 1868
northern Iowa was visited by herd
of these animals, as is indicated by
the following item discovered in
Dubuque newspaper Of that year by
a member of the research staff of the
State Historical Society Of Iowa:
"Out in the northern part of Hardin
county, near Iowa Falls, large drove
of buffaloes made their appearance
last week, and the people have had
plenty of sport hunting them. One old
bull that was. killed weighed 1900
pounds. He was wounded on Thurs
day evening and escaped; early the
next morning he came across some
stock belonging to an emisrant who

SCHOOL OF MBsKETPY
AT FORT SILL
An Important Part of the Infantry
Soldiers Education

Fort Sill, Okla, Dec. 20.-The
School of Musketry of the United
States army-the only school of its
kind in the country-win open at the
reservation here shortly before the
first of January. The exact date has
not been decided upon, as the new
buildings which are to house the
school have not yet been fully COM
pleted.
The school is for the training of Of
ficers and non-eommissioned officers
of the army in directing and controll-
ing the fire of bodies of troops and
in the systematic handling and infor-
nation of troops under fire. Individ-
ual craftsmanship is not taught. The
school was organized last July. It
was located at Fort Sill because of
the presence here of the School of
Fire for Field Artillery, with which
geography and extent of the local res
ervation, which is the largest in the
country. Later on, the war depart
ment intends to install regimental
schools in each post and then the in
stitution here will be turned into a
normal school for the training of
teachers.
The idea of mass firing, as opposed
to individual craftsmanship, was first
conceived by an Italian general about
twenty years ago. 1t was developed
by the Germans and finally adopted
by the other European countries
and musketry schools now are estab-
lished in all European armies.
The first investigation of the pos
| sibilities of mass firing was made
in this country seven years ago at
Fort Leavenworth, Kansas Captain
f. E. Eames, now assistant command
ant of the school at Fort Sill, was
selected to take charge of the work
He found nothing in the English Ian
guage on the subject. The problems
and formulas which he worked out
now comprise the textbook for the
army. The results of test lessons
conducted under simulated war condi-
tons have demonstrated the practic-
ability of the theory and the need OF
thoroughly trained officers, according
to army officials. They point out
that two years ago at the annual
rife meet at Camp Perry, Ohio, a
company of the best civilian marks
men was formed to fire in competition
with a company chosen at random
from the army. The army shooters,
although composed of only average in
dividual marksmen, were commanded
| by an officer trained in mass firing.
The civilians were easily defeated.
The reservation at Fort Sill is a
rolling prairie, particularly adapted
to rife practice at concealed targets.
Besides being taught range finding
and fire control, the officers are taught
the art of concealing troops from fire
and the most advantageous methods
! of formation in moving body of

the prolongation of youth. For
merly a girl who did not marry
before her twenty-sixth summer

thirty five, if she remained un-

may be young at twenty-six, and

even at sixty. AS DR.. w. Sales
