UTAH BOASTS OF HERD
OF 400 WILD BUFFALO

Salt Lake City, Mar. 1S.-A herd

Salt Lake. Antelope Island contains
approximately $4,000 acres and Is.

According to officers OF the Dooly
estate, between 80 and 40 buffalo
were placed on the island about 40
years ago. Occasionally, at the in
vitation of one of the Dooly legatees.
friends have been permitted to
''hunt" the buffalo. The sport is
said to be exciting. Reports that
the animals on Antelope Island are
tame are met with invitation to
journey to the island and attempt
to get close to the herd.
Only the old bulls are allowed to
be killed, and less than 10 of these
annually, say the estate officials.
The estate officials say they are will
ling that the government take over
the buffalo and place them in some
national park. They said that the
buffalo eat much feed that could be
more profitably devoted to the use OF
cattle. Although located in the mid
die of the Great Salt Lake, fresh
water springs supply water the year

IRRIGATION

Sundays Medford Sun contained
a very interesting article, covering
several pages, in regard to the Big
irrigation project contemplated s"r
the Nedford district. Some figures
are quoted from the men who have
been farming in that section 'fT
many years, that are irrefutaoie
proof that irrigation is the best in

that it is crop assurance.
F. H. Hopkins, who had SS acres
in fiye-year-old alfalfa, harvested
as high as seven tons per acre and
never fell below six tons per acre
from his irrigated land. Three cut
tings we're made. Testimonials from
many other alfalfa growers showed
that they received not less than five
tons of alfalfa per acre and as high
as seven tons per acre from their ir-
rigated fields.
Here is the testimony of Harvey

PLAN REUNION IF
 158TH INF MEN STATE FAIR WEEK
State Wide Society of For
 mer Members of Famous
 Old Organization Prob ably to Be Formed Then

In an effort to form a state wide organization of men who have served in the 15Sth infantry at one time or another during it's long and varied existence, Captain Walter s. Ingalls,, adjutant general of the state, has started a movement to have a meeting of all former members of that organ ization in Phoenix during state fair week. The plan of having the 158th men meet here will be used in cooper ation with the state fair plan to have a soldiers day at the fair. Thursday has been designated as the day upon which to do honor to all former sol diers.
 It is Captain Ingalls, plan to have meeting Thursday of fair week at which time a permanent organization will be effected and plans made for reunions in the future. It was claimed during the past war that in the future the regiments never would be able to hold reunions, due to the fact that the men making up the various organiza- tions came from all over the United States. It is thought that the 15Sth will be one of the few regiments of the army which will be able to hold a re- union, as there are hundreds of men in the state who formerly soldiered under its colors. either on the border, at Camp Kearny or in France.
 Career of Regiment
 The proposition of holding a reunion of the famous old regiment has been put up to a number of men who be- longed to it and all are thoroughly in favor of the move.
 The regiment has a picturesque career, which started May g, 1916, when the companies left their home rendez- vous and started to invade Mexico. The invasion halted at the border, how ever, and for many long and weary months the organization was scattered along the interna tional line with head quarters at Naeo, Arizona. Finally, all the companies were called in with the exception of one at Bisbee, one at Ajo and one at the Roosevelt dam.
 In October, 1917, orders were received for the regiment to move to Camp Kearny to train for overseas service. The three companies away from the regiment were called in, and the regi- ment, together for the first time since it went into active service, entrained for California.
 The Arizona outfit remained in Camp Kearny until July, 1918, when with the rest of the 10th division, it started the long trip to France.
 Long in Service
 The 15Sth infantry was the only na- tional guard regiment in the United States army which was never recalled from active service after the Mexican border trouble. It was in federal ser vice constantly from 1916 until must cred out at Fort Bliss in 1919 after
