To the American People It is claimed by the Navy Department that our estimates of cost on battle cruisers are too high.

HUNTERS GETTING READY.

The deer and turkey season this year opens October l and closes No vember l, with a bag limit of one deer with horns and two turkeys. For several years the open season has been from October 1 to December 15. but the voters last fall decided by ballots that the season was too long and the limit too high. In Califor mia the season is a month and half and the limit two bucks. The inter- est in big game shooting is increasing each year. Owing to the short sea son, many hunters will likely be out at the opening. Shooters should not overlook the fact that the quail sea son does not open until October 18th. and that the country is full of game wardens and that the real sportsmen have decided this year to turn in ev- cry person they learn of who kills quail before October 18th.

Men from the regular army have been sent to Camp Funston and these have been placed in every squad of recruits, on either side of the new men. and in this manner they explain each order and aid in executing II. With this sort of drilling it is expect ed that the new men will be well up in tactics in a short time and be pre- pared to do some drill coaching them selves when the next contingent ar rives at the camp.
 HIS SApidihS lhe uSiaS' it io sdiu' in assigning the new men 10 compan- ies and regiments. By drilling in squads and platoons with the aid of the regular army men the per cent will not be rockies" in a few weeks. but will be ready to wear the chevrons of a corporal or sergeant and take command of a squad when the 40 per cent arrives.
