saving many a guardsman from wounds OF saber
or lance or even high velocity projecties when
striking at an angle.
1t is true that the dsuse of armor followed the
invention of better grades of powder, but il must.
nevertheless. be remembered that, during the time
when armor was worn oftenest in Europe gun
powder was in common use. During the latter
half OF the sixteenth century not only cannon but
guns and pistols were seen everywhere Never
theless armOr continued to be used 1t was in
many cases the matter of expense which limited
the wearing of armor: for in those days the cost
of armor was high, very high. Clearly, therefore.
man would be less apt to wear a really good
harness-one which might have cost the equiva-
lent of ten thousand dollars in the present pur.
chasing power Of money-when the protection IL
gave him was not complete: he preferred then to
wear common heavy armor, and in the end to
neglect wearing armor altogether
When he found that his enemy kept away from
him. the range of firearms increased Later on he
took a chance" of receiving wound.
1t was only during the Thirty Years war. say
before $780, that cheap armor of very great
weight-almost intolerable-came into general
use. Then. tOo one must remember that there
was for long time feeling that armor was not
heroic. Even in earlier centuries many a distin-
guished officer thought 1t chivalrous to appear in
battle only partly armed. Thus we read of his
torica personages going into battle with helmet
visor raised. and of such a knight errant as Sir
Philip Sydney fighting bareheaded The feeling
that it is discredtable to arn,or is strong
even at the present day.
The reasoning runs. 1t is cowardly to take an
unfair advantage Of an adversary. Surely a man
in duel would not wear shirt of mail; so wny
should he be armored in battle. which is only
duel on a larger scale?
Shields should be and already in constant
use 1t may be recalled that the Japanese rede
veloped this system effectively in their war with
Russia especially in the capture of Two Hundred
and Three Meter hill" where they moved along
in front of the advancing infantrymen. In earlier
times the Japanese sometimes wore fiat shielc
slung upon the breast. but always as a defense
against shot
When one considers the value to the commu-
nifty of even one soldier. surely no nation should
AFFORD not to protect him as best IT can.
The descendants of an individual may amount
to thousands in the course Of couple of centuries
SO one can figure jut what the human losses tC
the countries now at war must represent In .hs
future II armor will save even . s., hundreds
Of men it will certainly pay as a narionsJ invesy
ment to use IT, The time will soon come whes
governmental commissions will take up this mat

OF Sir Philip Sidney from a spent bullet a
son for adhering to the old fashions in military
equipment As early 1869 armor was proved
by musket pistol shot, and in 1890 Sir Henry
Lee, master of the armories arranged a trial
to Determine the respective merits OF Shropshire
iron and "Hungere" or Innsbruck metal. with re-
suits disastrous to the homemade product.
In the 'verney Memoirs under the date OF
1867, we find that one Richard Halls proved his

run was the greatest ever known
here in a similar period 1t totaled
15.5O2 head compared with the pre-

1928 head for this same week a year
ago.
Hogs are coming Forward so freely
that It is small wonder that a seri-
Gus break did not occur in prices. The
market closed with tops at Sc or a
dime below the value of the weeks
start.
Portland hog prices are at present
much more favorable to shippers than
formerly This is the reason why so
much Idaho stuff has been coming
in this direction recently. Returns
here are better than could be secur-
ed at present by shipping to the east
