the little pests shambled into the mess tent this morning and Cooks Tom Dyson and Oscar Nezas stopped their culinary activities long enough to make a grab for it. A timely warning from Captain Ladbury pre- soldier from fondling the little cuss. Straightway the entire company gave a rising vote of thanks to the cap tain for his valiant rescue for it would have been the worst kind of a catas- trophe to have had anything hap pen to the chefs. I have seen hun- gry men before, but never have I seen such a collection of hungry individ- uals as these are. They are getting good rations, but never seem to get enough. In the town there are ' a, couple of good restaurants and whenever we are relieved from duty we hie ourselves hence. Even that source of famine prevention will soon be nothing but a pleasant mem- ory if the state doesn't come through pretty soon with that little fifteen per (month). At this writing a ma JOrlty of the men are strapped and several of them have already got their next months pay spent.
 There is plenty of Mexican money here, in fact the woods are full of it, only there are no woods. Mexican money can be carried away by the carloads for a small sum. New Brit ain will soon be swamped With "Greaser' currency for the boys are sending it home so their friends can see what it looks like.

For Itching Eczema,
 Old Sores and Plies

"I guarantee my ointment" says Peterson, ito cure eczema; to stop the itching at once and any relia ble drug gist will cheerfully refund your money of PETERSON'S OINTMENT doesn't do everything I say it will do."
 William A. Carley of Franklin, N. Y, is surely wise man. He writes: 'I used PETERSON'S OINTMENT on a little boy suffering terribly with ec- zema. It did the work"
 Then there is Alex LOuttel, a brave fireman of Buffalo, who is glad to write as follows: "I had an old sore on my leg for many years. The best doctors failed. PETERSON'S OINT- MENT entirely healed the sore quick 1y." And from over in Canada comes letter from A. BIOcKeby, stating: 'The best thing I ever hit for itching piles is PETERSON'S OINTMENT.'' '' A big box for 25 cents.

only had taste of it as yet, but it has been enough to show that there IS no shirking among the miltiamcn.
 Spanish comes in very handy now and the boys are hoping that they will be kept here long enough to use their little Spanish dictionaries which they carry religiously in their breast pock- cts. It is amusing to see them go into a store to buy cigar, stutter a while and then dig into their pocket for the little life savers. Old Noah Web ster's idea was a good one and his stock has certainly been given a great boost.
 There is but little real excitement here and the only approach we have had to gun fire was this morning when Captain Ladbury exhibited his marks manship on a couple of stray dogs

We get the papers though and that helps some. As we don't think the folks back home have en- trely forgotten us, probably it would be well to warn them to address all mail properly Owing to the fact that the California guard is also here the letters c.

DAlRYlNG SHOWS
PROFIT

Last week John r. Evans pur-
chased five Holstein cows from the
herd of c, C. Hunt at $3.50 each
This is record price for cows in
this vicinity. The milk from these
COWS has been delivered to the Nyssa
Cheese company and the net return
for number OF months has been
500 for the five cows "-Nyssa cor.
respondent in Statesman.
Suppose we had one hundred such
herds adjacent to Mountain Home,
on the land for which there is plenty
of water, wouldn't it be a nice little
revenue? If the land owners would
dig right in and get their places
cultivated and in shape to care for
the cows there is little doubt but
that some plan would be worked out
whereby the cows would be provided,
and it would mean prosperity for all
the people.
Dairying, under proper condition
and with proper management, is pro-
fitable. If all the land for which
water is available should be divided
into twenty-acre tracts, it would at
ford homes for 500 or 600 families
and would provide sustenance for
about 5000 cows. Every family could
care for its own place and it's own
herd. Expenses could be reduced to
the minimum and within a very few
years this community would be just
as prosperous as any of the towns in
this section.
But the longer We delay getting
the land in cultivation the longer
will be deferred the dawning of pros
perity.

LEAVE OF ABSE NEE

The law recently enacted author
izing leave of absence to homestead
settlers on unsurveyed lands, which
was strongly advocated by Congress
man Smith of Idaho, will bring relief
to great number of people who, in
their efforts to secure a homestead
have settled ON public land in ad
vance of the survey. Heretofore set
tiers on unsurveyed lands, in order to
protect their rights, were required to
live continuously on the land until
it was surveyed, when they could
make a formal application for leave
of absence as provided under the
general homestead law.
Under the new law the settler
may have five months leave Of alb
sence in each year in one or two
periods, after having established his
residence, if he has plainly marked
the exterior boundaries of his claim
and filed in the local office notice Of
