CHAPTER xVl-Contlnued.

Quite a contrast to Wilson was an
other character In our brigade named
Scott; we called him "Old Scotty" on
account of his age. He was fifty-seven,
although looking forty. "Old Scotty"
had been born In the Northwest and
had served in the Northwest Mounted
police. He was typical cowpuncher
and Indian fighter and was dead shot
with the rifle, and took no pains to
disguise this fact from us. He used to
take care of his rifle as II 1t were
baby. In his spare moments you could
always see him cleaning IT or polish
ing the stock. Woe betide the man
who by mistake happened to get hold
Of this rife; he soon found out his
error. Scott was as deaf as a mule,
and 1t was amusing at parade to watch
him In the manual of. arms, slyly
glancing out of the corner of his eye
at the man next to him to see what
the order was. How he passed the
doctor was a mystery to us he must
have bluffed his way through, because
he certainly was independent Beside
him the Fourth of July looked like
Good Friday. He wore at the time
large sombrero, had Mexican stock
saddle over his shoulder, lariat on
his arm. and a 'forty-five" hanging
from his hip. Dumping this parapher-
MALTA on the floor he went up to the
recruiting officer and shouted: "Im
from America, west of the Rockies,
and want to join your ID army.
I've got no use for a German and can
shoot some. At Scotland Yard they
turned me down; said l was deaf and
so / am. l don't banker to ship In with
q ID underwriting outfit, but the
cavalry's full. so l guess this regi-
ment's better than none, so trot out
your papers and I'll sign EN-" He told
them he was forty and slipped by.
was on recruiting service at the time
he applied for enlistment.
1t was Old Scotty's great ambition
to be a sniper or 'body snatcher," as
Mr.. Atkins calls IT. The day that he
was detailed as brigade sniper he cele-
brated his appointment by blowing the
whole platoon to flags.
Being Yank, Old Scotty took a Xix
ing to me and used to spin some great
yarns about the plains. and the whole
platoon would drink these in and ask
for more. Ananias was a rookie COM
pared with him.
The ex-plainsman and discipline
could not agree, but the officers all
liked him, even If he was hard TO man.
age, so when he was detailed as
sniper a sigh of relief went up from
the officers mess.
Old Scotty had the freedom of the
brigade. He used to draw two or
three days rations and disappear with
his glass, range finder and rifle, and we
would see or hear no more of him
until suddenly he would reappear
with a couple Of notches added to
those already on the butt Of his rifle.
Every time he got a German 1t meant
another notch. He was proud of these
notches.
But after a few months Father
Rheumatism got him and he was sent
to Blighty; the air In the wake Of his
stretcher was blue with curses. Old
Scotty surely could swear; some Of his
outbursts actually burned you.
No doubt, at this writing, he Is

Men, Not Partisans Needed

In three weeks the people will decide what sort or national legislature they want. It will be either republican democratic. The nation wants the best for the job. and are naturally more interested in their efficiency than in their political coat

 Congress is place for men who have not sup ported the war. They have shown lack of vision. They did not understand the menace of the Hun and not having vision and understanding they are not fit for place in senate or house.
 This war is not democratic or republican war t Is of the people of the United States against world menace. There is question but that at the outset Of the thousands did realize what was necessary. Things done today which might have aroused opposition year ago when the full menace not realized. Today they are done as matters of course for they necessary to help win the war

One of the Aids to Savinq Food

While the good round silver dollar of commerce Is just as big as it has been for many years yet when it comes to buying food it cannot be spread out to nearly much butter 1t did in pre- days Comparing food prices pre-war times with of today shows that relatively speaking the west is in better shape than the east. Food was always more costly in the west than in the east because of greater distances of transportation but since the price climb of the past four years it has climbed in the same proportion west of the Rocky mountains as east of them.
 In Washington D. C.. for example the purchasing power of the dollar has shrunk during the 54 cents while in San Francisco it has only shrunk to 63 cents. These the statistics of department of labor. In New York and Chicago its purchasing power has shrunk to 59 cents
 The report points out that food which could have been bought for s1 in July of 1913 in New York now costs s16S and in the period July of last year to July of this the general advance was 22 per cent in San Francisco In the last year the west has rather raced after the cost advance in the east but still lacks few cents of keeping up with the east.
 Dry statistics are not needed to tell the average housewife that food costs more much more than it do before the or, for that matter even one year Butter in the dairying region of the Salt River valley is selling today at around 75 cents a pound
 War gardens and are made successful but many amateur war gardners did not give the matter requisite study to make successes and so lost money on their vegetable venture instead saving it. Nothing can be accomplished which is worth while in gardening or in any other field of endeavor without some pretty good understanding of the demands of the case However. if gardners will but use the good judgment they in their ordinary work in life they and do make successes which help in the general work of war winning
 There is no doubt but that the average American family has not had to pinch food and so has not been careful with food it should be- Now that there additional why waste should be eliminated its elimination is started. Food undoubt- edly costs more but since much less of it is wasted for that and patriotic there is some compensa- ton after all in mounting food prices

On Main Line

The completion of the San Diego and Arizona railroad through to connec- tion with Yuma, which is now prom ised us by early spring, will give all of the southern part of Arizona a very di- rect route instead of the present long detour.

RESULTS ON POTATOES

A model Bordeaux mixing and filling station, with the raised platforms and barrels made in miniature form, was one of the most attractive features of the interesting fair exhibit displayed by the local county agent at Waterville. The model showed clearly how Bor- deauX mixture should be made. and other parts of the exhibit testified to the success of the use of this mixture in spraying potatoes for blight. Good results are reported from the potato spraying demonstrations which have been held in various parts of Maine
 and many prominent growers who have carefully followed directions in mixing and applying their Bordeaux

suited, are consecrated men who have devoted their whole lives ito the Chris tian religion as they understand it. They number among their congrega : tions thousands of devout men and women. Is there no healing unction in all this? Is it possible that the services in these churches and the prayers of these people are so remote from God that these churches must be closed and these pentecostal petitions made to cease because of the fear of germs Which is greater. God or germs Choose ye this day whom ye will serve
 "The irony of the situation is suf- ficientiy obvious; but without further comment, if it be true that the churches at time like this are so dominated by the fear of matter that they close their doors and refrain from their customary Christian mission when the need is greatest. let them be closed not for g Sunday or two, but forever"
