Columbia, Dec. S.-Official figures

in a statement which has been Issue |
by the South Carolina cour :, Of de-
fense. 1t is the first time that these
facts have been presented. The state
ment follows:
'"The latest official fgUfes put the
number Of enlisted men in the armies
of the United States at one million,
three hundred and sixty THOUSAND.
This is the force that has grown ii

of the degrees the Grand High Priest
delivered a very eloquent and instruc-
tive address on Masonry. Then a
supper was served to all present in
the banquet room. A number of short
talks were then made by the visitors
and the meeting changed quickly in
to a patriotic rally. There was a
large attendance and it is expected
that delegation from Orient Chapter

WEDNESDAY, APRIL IL, 1917.
Co. ID in Fine Shape

Lieutenant H. C. Byrnes Of Co. D
is at home on short furlough after
his long service on the border. He
reports the company as all being in
prime physical condition and fit and
willing for real war service. He re-
ports that he has received many re-
quests since coming here to enlist
and if proper arrangements are made
can easily take back enough men to
recruit the company to full war
strength. The company has made a
fine record and now that the enlist
ments in the Colorado are reaching
the point where a new major is re
quired it is hoped that the great
wrong done this battalion, in turning
down Major Householder and putting
them under a major junior to him, but
of course hailing from Denver, will be
righted. Major Householder was not
only senior to the man given the job
but was accredited as the most cap
able officer in the state, and had done
more than any other man to recruit
the Arkansas Valley battalion.

All the churches of Lamar held
special Easter services last Sunday
morning. The churches were beauti-
fully decorated and the music and
special programs were all specially
fitted for this greatest of all Christian
services. At night most Of the
churches closed and united with the
Knights Templar in their regular
Easter service at the high school aud
itorium. Hon. John E. Rinker of
Cripple Greek, Grand Commander, was
present and delivered the address of
the evening, a most eloquent and con-
vincing argument for christianity and
a history of Templarism. Rev5. Croz-
Ter and Lee assisted Prelate J. A.
Downing in conducting the services,
and most excellent musical program
was rendered by a special choir in
charge Of E. A. Bannister, and the
Agricultural College Glee Club and
J. E. Hickman. The auditorium was
crowded to the doors and far out in

Prairie Cattle Company Sells

We understand that all the remain
ing cattle on the range and all the
lands and personal effects of the
Prairie Cattle company, have been
sold TO Messrs. Tom Tate and Jack
Hardy of La Junta. 1t is said that the
price paid was in the neighborhood of
100000.
This sale includes the remnant of
the ~" herd that may be upon the
range at the present time, estimated
at 800 head. Also some $4,000 acres
of land over southeastern Colorado,
including the home ranch on the Pur-
gatoire at the mouth of Smith Canon.
Thus passes from active business
life the Prairie Cattle company, after
a business career in this part Of Colo
RADIO beginning about 1882. One of
the famous old time cattle companies,
and the last to give up the business
now made impossible on 4 large scale
by changing conditions. They quit
business with the good will and re-
spect of ali interests with whom they
have ever conducted business, and
their retirement will be a distinct loss
to this country.-Las Animas Leader

Homesteaders Safe

All homesteaders, who enlist in the
army or navy, are assured Of the
safety Of their homesteads. The laws
not only protect them against con-
tests but also provide that time serv-
cd in army or navy will count as res
idence on their homesteads. Any
homesteader desiring to enlist need
have no fear at all on this ground if
he will. just file with the local land
officials a notice of his intentions
showing the numbers of his land and
the company and regiment in which he
is about to enlist. After that notice
the local land office will promptly
throw out any contest that may be
filed against him without the formal
ity of hearing. The homesteaders
can therefore draw their pay and
board from Uncle Sam and acquire
their homesteads at the same time.
