In Memoriam.
Oh. S. W.

Oh. S. W.
A man of Law! az such a man should be-
Wise. kind and firm; from petty bias free:
Fearless with keen eyes searching out the
truth,
The soul of justice and the heart of ruth.
He went his quiet way. nor often spoke.
But how we listened when the silence
broke!
He never stunned a task, or failed a
friend:
How shall we say this life hath had its
end?
Say rather, may we each some measure
Of that good heritage he leaves behind.

LETTER FROM
IRA ROBERTSON
Cottonwood Boys Now in the
10th Engineers.
Camp Greene, Charlotte, N. G..
Oct. 2, 1917.

! Oct. 2, 1917.
Dear Father:
am sending you an article on the
duties Of engineers in the present war,
which describes something about our
work. You might ask the Chronicle
editor to publish it, as it will prove
interesting news to all of the Cotton
wood people, as all of we Cottonwood
boys are now in the 10th U. S. En-
gineers.
We were told today that we would
probably get thirty days more infant
ry drill, then sixteen weeks course
in engineering. This will make about
five months and here is hoping the
war is over by that time, which lots
Of people think it will; but l have my
serious doubts about it.
They claim this camp is five miles
wide and seven miles long. That is
some camp. l know it is big one
because when we got off the train at
the edge of it we hiked over two miles
in the mud before we reached our
quarters, and today we hiked about
two miles more in the opposite direc-
ton to the base hospital and were still
in camp. have never been out of it
yet.
This base hospital is supposed to be
the largest hospital in the U. S., either
public or military, and takes care of
about 5000 patients.
Don't take these statements and
figures for statistics, because all the
privates in the army hear are reports,
and believe me you can sure hear
things. 1t is the worst place for hot
air reports 1 ever saw.
We imagine that at the end of our
infantry training we will get another
move to Hampstead, N. Y, as it is
the training camp for engineers.
We were all examined for tubercu-
losis this afternoon and as far as l
know all passed fine.
1t is reported that the End battalion
Of the 10th Engineers will be made
up of all Idaho boys from the old End
Idaho. We expect to get F and H
Idaho companies to fill the rest Of our
companies. E company End Idaho
now is E company 10th Engineers
and G company End Idaho now is D
company 10th Engineers.
We received the local paper alright
this week, but had already seen copy
as Beatty had it when he got here.
He is also in the 10th Engineers but
not in our company.
Our address now is E company
18th Engineers, Camp Greene, N. c.
Well, must close as it is supper
time, Your son,

KeutCrViIIe Store Sold.

A deal has just been closed whereby
the Cottonwood Mercantile Co. be-
comes the owner of the Keuterville
store, 6 miles west of here.
Ben Grunloh, who for some time
has been one of the competent clerks
in the Hoene hardware store, will
have charge of the Keuterville store,
commencing next week.
A nice line of dry goods will be add
ed to the stock, making it general
merchandise store, and it will be run
as a branch of the Cottonwood store.
Hans Petersen, the retiring mer-
chant, successfully conducted the Keu-
terville store for the last 9 years.
Their many friends will be pleased to
learn that Mr.. Petersen and family
will not leave this portion of the coun-
try-for the present at least. Mr..
Petersen has traded his 160-acre ranch
near Joseph for residence property
near the Catholic church, belonging to
E. L. Parker, and will reside with his
family here the coming winter.
Mr.. Petersen expects to soon make
a trip to Washington and other east
ern cities in the interest of his new in

Attention Farmers
Farmers Union Warehouse Co. to
Adopt the National System
of Buying Hogs.

In future when buying your
hogs we will discontinue docking
any light sows weighing under
800 pounds, other than piggies.
In buying stays we will dock 70
pounds instead of 80. Also de-
duct one cent per pound, instead
of two cents, as heretofore. All
heavies and rough sows weighing
over 300 pounds will be bought
same as heretofore; otherwise no
changes.
