time. The summer uniform OF the
national guard now Is third lighter
and is much better fitted for service
in a hot country than was the summer
uniform that was perfected following
the Philippine campaign.
"The American troops who went out
against the Spaniards used an an
tiquated type of Springfield rife while
Ia new type, recognized as the best
rifle in the world for infantry work
Is in use both in the regular army and
in the national guard. Then we used
black powder; now it's smokeless In
those days officers Of the national
guard had not had the training with
regular army men that they have en-
joyed in recent years Meat was of
the poorest grade while now every eff
fort is made to furnish the troops with
only the purest food. The army mule
was as much an institution as the
drum major. The mule driver was
picturesque figure, noted for his
wonderful proficiency both in the
matter Of blacksnake whip and pro-
family. In present day armies the
motor truck is taking the place Of the
army mule and the driver of the
wagon is no more romantic figure
than is the chauffeur Of taxicab.
During the campaigns in Cuba and
the Philippines my head was buzzing
half the time, because of the quinine
that had been forced to take to ward
off typhoid and kindred fevers. Now
they vaccinate, the soldiers against
things like that; one little prick In the
arm and you're immune.
These are only a few Of the i'm
provements. I'm told that among the
regulars the privates now are wear
ing wrist watches and thescamp cooks
are using f1reless cookers, but I won't
believe that until see it."

Camp Dodge, Des Moines, June 26.-
Veterans who fought in the civil war
and those who went out in response to
McKinley's call in 1898 are forsaking
their business pursuits and are loiter-
ing about Camp Dodge, where men,
bers Of the Iowa National Guard are
being concentrated The Grand Army
men come hobbling on canes to tell
the youngsters Of Americas newest
volunteer army that war is no pic
nic": I'VE didn't have your equipment
in 81; or Shoot low, son." while the
Spanish war veterans, altho of more
modern vintage find many improve
ments in equipment and methods,
since the Spanish war and Philippine
Instruction.
One, officer Of the National Guard of
Iowa, who saw service in the regular
army both in Cuba and in the Philip
pines, in statement made public to-
day explained the differences of the
science of war; in 1918 and 1898. He
said:
"In 1898 sanitation was almost I'M
known to army officers. Now, the
sanitary engineers are as necessary a
part OF the army organization as is the
field hospital corps. They inspect each
camp before the troops GO into it. At
the outset in '9S we were given heavy
blue uniforms, to be replaced later on
with khaki only slightly less heavy, to
wear in hot climate in the summer

) RETIRED FARMER
SCORED BY WILSON
AS SAD TRAGEDY
Special to Times-Rep,,blican.

Special to Times Republican.
Ames. June 26.-Retired farmers ant
farm spectators were bumped hard al
the rural life conference In session al
Iowa State College when DIR. Warren
II. Wilson, of New York City, leader
of the conference, explained some Of
the things that are wrong with coun-
try life today.
There is no sadder tragedy in Amer
lea than the retired farmer" declared
DR.. Wilson, who as superintendent OF
the board of home missions Of the Pres
byterian church has studied the ques-
ton for years. The retired farmer
is d mean, small, narrow individual
who opposes the very things he went
to town to secure. When he finds that
living in town costs more. that his wife
and daughters need more money, and
that he does not get as much interest
income as he expected. he begins to
fight such things as paving, sewers and
other municipal improvements. Then he
robs his soil and his tenant to make up
for what he loses in town."
DR.. Wilson characterized the Amer
lean farmer as a trader and Spectator
rather than a producer. He is getting
rich on land prices rather than on the
crops he grows. His land Is growing in
price but losing in value because his
crops are getting smaller
"Peasantry as in Europe would be a
great blessing to the United States,
was the way DR.. Wilson sized up the
tenant problem. "Our system of farm
tenantry is the worst system in the
world. 1t Is the one year lease feature
that mainly makes it So"
The solution of the retired farmer
problem and the country life problem
as voiced by DR.. Wilson and other
speakers at the conference Is to bring
the attractions of the city to the coun-
try and make country life so attractive
