what a farmer makes by working away
from the ranch he loses by not being

acres are in cultivation and nearly all
Of the area is devoted to the growing
of spring wheat. Heretofore Bluestem
only has been grown on the ranch,
but last spring 10 acres Of Marquis
wheat were seeded and the result has
induced Mr.. Hotel to o that
Marquis spring wheat will have the
call from now on. Last year all the
Bluestem and the Marquis were seed
ed the same day and the latter was
ready for heading a full two and a half
weeks earlier than the former; the
Marquis was threshed and the Blue
stem cut for hay.
An extraordinary growth of quaker
aspen and other brush is found on this
ranch and the clearing of the land is
truly an arduOus task. But not in the
least dismayed the owner goes at it
with AK and g|rubbing tools, with
chains and horses, and in due course of
time wheat will grow where the aspen
now stands. Next spring will see a
far greater acreage in grain than has
ever been seeded on the place.

The pumpkins are dried and when

in abundance on the ranch and the
children find no trouble whatever il

YOUNG CRYSTAL FARMER IN THE
ARMY.

Two and a half miles north of Crys-
tai stands a little log cabin which is
now unoccupied while the owner of it
is serving Uncle Sam as a soldier in
the national army. 1t is the home of
Carl Wrensted, son Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Peter Wrensted, whose ranch is not
far distant. The young homesteader
was called to the colOrs on October 3
and is now undergoing training at
Camp Lewis, American Lake, Wash
ingtOn. He filed on this homestead in
1913. and his first crop consisted of
Is acres of Sonora wheat. This year
he had in 65 acres of wheat, all of it
Turkey Red, with the exception of %
acres of Sonora. The latter was hit
by a hailstorm and badly injured.
This entire 160-acre homestead con-
tains only about Is acres of waste
land and is all dry farming.
Potatoes and corn have yielded well
on the place. Kaffir corn one year
was planted late but just the same it
was growing fine when an early frost
came along and killed it,. The field
corn tried out was grown from seed
brought in from Pasadena, California,
and matured; in telling of this corn
Mr.. Wrensted explained, however. that
the portion of it saved from a rowing
band of cattle matured while the bal
ance never had a chance. He is con-
WINGED that field corn will do well on
his ranch. The farm lies in the hills
and is not affected by sub~-irrigation,
being dry farm land in the strictest
sense.
The log cabin standing on this home
stead has served more thar one set
tier as a home. 1t was originally built
by Forrest Whiting and then sold to
David Handy who had a homestead
just northeast of Crystal. When Carl
Wrensted returned from a dance at
Crystal one night during a heavy wind
storm he found that his little board
cabin had been blown away by the
agitated atmosphere. and the next
morning he bought the log cabin from
Mr.. Handy and moved it to his home
stead.
Carl Wrensted is a native of Po-
<catellO, born there in 1892. His long
est continuance absence from Idaho
was last winter when he spent sever
weeks in California. He has Away;
helped his parents on their ranch, anC
continued helping them after he haC
filed on his own homestead. He ha:
lot yet proved up on his homestead
but as the government fully protects
all hOmesteaders in their rights whil'
serving in the army or the navy hi
land is safe from any molestation.
When this young man was up TO
medical examination as to his fines
to serve as a soldier in the armies o
the republic he was one of the few
who passed the examination with
perfect record. All his friends hop
he will return safely from the servic
to which the government has Gale,
him and hat he will again join tn
ranks Of Power county farmers, an
while in the service he has the bes
wishes of all his friends.

acres of spring wheat we're harvested
this year and a fine garden was put in
the first thing in the spring when the
ground was ready. The yield of vege-
tables and potatoes from the little gar
den supplied all the needs of the fami-
ly table abundantly.
When Mr.. Kruse filed on this ranch
he found only a small cabin on it in
the way of improvements and during
the summer he has built an addition
to il large enough to entitle il to be
called a dwelling. The house nov
contains four rooms, a closet and a
pantry. and is a story and a half high.
While Mr.. Kruse is not a carpenter
by trade. still he did all the construc-
ton work on the building himself, in
GLIDING the interior finishing. The
lumber was all shipped in from the
Puget Sound country, Mr.. Kruse's
former home. The home is located in
a pretty spot on Crystal creek. nc
other home being between it and the
head Of the stream.
Wheat growing will be the main
thing on this ranch and development
Of the virgin soil is the order Of the
day. Three horses, a COW and calf, q
pig. and a small flock of chickens are
on thesplace, and this start in the way
of livestock will be added to as the
ranch is developed. The ranch is a
an altitude of close to 5000 feet and
dry farm proposition throughout.
Mr.. and Mrs. Kruse came to POwel
county from Everett, Washington, ant

ALONG The HIGHWAYS
Gleanings by the Pilgrim in His
Wanderings Here and There.

D. v. Roberts, who is farming a
quarter section a half miles west Of
the Davis store in Arbon valley, raised
some fine Turkey Red wheat this year
and is satisfied with the yield of his
ranch in an adverse year. His winter
wheat tested 90 pounds and brought
him S1.83 per bushel at Malad. Mr..
Roberts is a believer in diversified
farming and is convinced that it will
never do to cOntine all efforts to a
single item of ranching. The flock Of
Rhode Island Red chickens on this
ranch more than pay for the grocery
bill Of the household. Indian Runner
ducks are raised for the market, and
whenever Mr.. and Mrs. Roberts 90 to
town they can take along eggs or a
dozen or so of ducks and get ready
cash for them. From a flock of u
head of sheep the heat sum of S42 was
received for wool last spring. These
sheep were fed on straw during the
