SCOUTS HAVE A MODEL CAMP.

Glen Everman, commenting on the
big scout encampment at Cloudcroft
Tex. said some fine things about the
scouts who attended this remarkable
powwow.
1--WE had uniform going-to-bed and
getting-up time as well as regular eat
ing and drilling hours. There wasn't
a single fight during the entire encamp-
ment, and every lad behaved himself
like man. We had boys from Texas,
New Mexico, Arizona California and
Maine.
We had Jews, Catholics and Protest
ants. The son of a millionaire and the
son of a very poor man bunked In the
same tent. The largest member of the
camping party tipped the scales Mt 235
pounds, while many of the youths
weighed between 60 and 90 pounds.

lieve the most successful over held

.EvER1N bad INDIAN" HUNT?

The boys OF Jamestown. n. Y, were
I'm camp this season on Chautauqua
lake, at Sylvan park, and it was de-
termined to hold an Indian hunt. The
camp director was appointed the bad
Indian" who, with four others had
made successful raid on the camp.
On an appointed morning he and
his four followers started out at ten
O'Clock to hide somewhere in the vi
cinity. They were to be given three
hours Roadway.
At one o'clock five scouting parties,
each headed by first class scout,
started out from camp to bring in the
bad Indian" and his followers.
One of the conditions of the hunt
was that these Indians should find a
place to camp, and must build fire
and keep 1t burning until six o'clock
In the evening, unless they were soon
er found by scouting party.
The fleeing "Redskins" located a
camp site and masked 1t on three sides,
one of the conditions being that II
should be open on the fourth In plain
view of all who might happen to pass
that way. Then they cut the wood for
the days requirement-not long sticks,
but about eight inches in length; and a
regular Indian fire was built.
Another condition of the hunt was
that the Indians should not leave the
place which they selected as their
camp, but must stay there until six in
the afternoon.
During the day one scouting party
passed within 25 feet of the bad In
dian" camp, and on the open side of
their fire, but so intent were they on
what was in front Of them and so clev-
erly was the camp laid out that they
did not see the Indians"

In the Bazaars and Square.
The bazaars OF Mosul are not tho
attractive places they might be ex-
pected to be In city of so much traf-
iic. AS William Warfeld says in his
book. "The Gate OF Asia" they are
rarely rooted, and are furnished only
with the commonest wares. The shop
keepers are generally Christians, but
there are many Arabs. Garden prod
uce Is often sold I'm the squares in open
markets, and at any time vendors may
be seen talking In the streets, with
eggs or cucumbers in n basket while
the mosque courtyards are favored
places for sweetheart sellers, who dis
play "Turkish delight" on scalloped
copper trays. The baZaars radiate
| from picturesque square quite near
the bridge. which Is the center of the
town. To the south and southwest

| greengrocers, while the potters and
dealers I'm hardware are to be found
in narrow stores opening on street
| that runs to the north.
As to the square itself, II Is, OF
| course, one of the famous meeting
places of Mosul. Here the caravans

ers sit on the famous second-story
gallery of coffee shop. while the

place, or lounge among bales covered
with brown and white striped sack
cloth. These men are almost always
Kurds, those from the southern and
eastern tribes dressed In tunics, zou-
ave jackets and turbans. They wear
baggy trousers reaching to their feet,
which are covered with brogues Of
heavy hemp or rawhide.
Site OF Ancient Nlneveh.
For many people the great attrac-
ton OF visit to Mosul, the most In.
accessible place In the sultan's dOmin-'
ion, lies across the famous bridge OF
| boats" at the other side of the Tigris,
where the huge. formless mounds. ris-
ing up out of the sand, mark the site
of the ancient city of Nlneveh. Any
attempt to tell the story of Nlneveh
would involve "A journey back to the
very beginning of things. Later As
syrian writers declare with confidence
that its story ran back as matter OF
course to the "creation of the world"
but, as matter of nct, the first firm
ground In the midst Of tradition Is
reached about the year 300 Is. G. That
wonderfully vivid period in Nlneveh's
history with which the world espe-
cially recently, has become familiar,
lies between the ninth and sixth cen
turtles Il. G. In this period the reign
OF Sennacherib is Of course by far
the most important.
NlneVch, however, depended entire
ly for its gxeatness and power upon
the conquering spirit of its rulers and
the military glory and powers of Its
armies, and when these were ultimate
ly defeated the city fell, never TO rise
again, and It's very site was quickly
forgotten among the nations.

ICE PROBLEM FOR DAIRYMEN
ScrupuIous Care In Production and
Handling Of Milk Is Necessary
to Keep 1t Sweet.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Keeping milk fresh and sweet this
summer is likely to be more Of a prob
lem than usual. Cold is the most i'm.
portant single factor in keeping milk
sweet, and ice is usually necessary to
accomplish this. In most natural ice
sections Of the country, however, there
is a marked scarcity of natural ice.
Heretofore, in regions where 85 per
cent of American milk has been pro-
duced, natural ice has been plentiful
and cheap, and has been the principal
means by which perishable food
product has been sent long distances
to market without spoilage. AS re-
suit of the mild winter in many Sec
tions little natural ice was harvested,
and since in the North the manufac
ture Of artificial ice is confined prin-
cipally to the larger cities, it is doubt
full If this product would be available
to milk producers even If the price
.ould be made satisfactory.
On account of the lack Of ice, dairy
men will be compelled to use scrupu-
lous care in the production and hand
ling of milk and cream. It will be
necessary to adhere more closely than
ever to the three C's in caring for
milk-keeping it clean, cold, and COW
cred.
One Of the. most important factors
in reducing the bacterial count in
milk, and thus lengthen its keeping
qualities, is the sterilization of uten-
sils. Pails, strainers, separators, sur
face coolers, and shipping cans must
be cleaned and sterilized, preferably

CHECK BAD FLAVOR IN MILK

Milk itself decays with age and pro-

less the milk utensils are thoroughly

IN cooling milk dairymen should use
facilities already existing, such as cold
water in wells and springs. When
milk is drawn from a COW it has
temperature of about 95 degrees F.
In the North, well and spring water
generally varies in temperature from
SO to 60 degrees F. BY the use OF
surface coolers and tank Of cold rum
ming water, milk can quickly be cooled
and held within two to four degrees
Of the water.
During warm weather it may be nec-
essary to ship or deliver milk twice
a day. This would have a tendency
to check spoilage, especially Of eve
ming milk, which is usually more than
twelve hours old when shipped. Milk
dealers can do much to- prevent spoil
age by pasteurizig the milk. Pasteuri-
zation not only kills disease bacteria
but reduces count, and therefore de-
lays spOilage.
