Letter From Border.
A letter received in Bismarck from
the border is in part as follows:
1--WE are more satisfied than ever
that the North country has it all over
this internal southwest. 1t is very
hot here, especially for the full blood
ed, meaty northern boys. The water
is warm and sickish and unsatisfying,
but we get along all right. The food
is simple, good and ample.
"We are getting good training and
valuable experience. Our work is
laid out so that we are busy from $3.50
a. m. until p. m, with very few ide
moments"
Trees At Camp.
The letter gives az idea of the days
routine work, drill in the mornings,
school, drill during the afternoon and
evening. He states that the camp is
in an ideal location, has graded streets
and arranged with native trees.
1t continues:
Every living creature and plant in
this country has horns on it; horned
toads, scorpions, snakes, beetles, cac-
tus, Spanish bayonet plants and even
trees have thorns on them. I presume
this is due to the closeness of hell.
1.-The country is full of troops.
There are nine regiments in our camp
and great many in every town along
the road. We don't know what the
plans for future actions are, but we
hope they will find something more
exciting for us than hanging to this
camp as soon as we are in shape"
Letter From Solum.
Capt. G.. I. Solum of Co. F, Mandan,
| writes:
"Enroute July 26, 1916.
about twenty miles from Waco,
Texas, going 60 miles an hour. Have
had fine trip so far, boys doing fine
! and in good spirits. We expect to be
in San Antonio this evening and at

Have passed through some fine
country but none so fine as good old
North Dakota. Today it has been
all corn and cotton swamps and shall

in every state we have gone through
and have met with splendid compli-
| ments all along the line as to looks
and behavior of our boys. Some plac-
es they won't believe we are militia
but insist We are part of the regulars.
There is no hollering or yelling on
the trains, and when we stop the
boys fall out nicely and drill splen-
didly.
"Old timers and business men along
the line say we are the only real
soldiers through SO far. The rest
have had more or less trouble kicking
about the feed and treatment.
Again we want to thank the ladies
Of Mandan and all citizens for their
most kind and unexpected help and
