he addressed to Director Davis of the

together with the reply thereto. with
reference to the proposed irrigation
project in this valley, both of which
communications are published here

follows:
Dear Mr.. Director:
Several letters have been received by
me in regard to the so-called Sierra
Madre Carey Act project in the Sara
toga valley of the North Platte river,
in Carbon county, Wyoming, which in
dictate that the writers hold the opinion
that your department has ruled that
there was not enough waiter in the
Platte river and is tributaries above
the Pathfinder reservoir sufficient to
warrant construction of additional ir-
r1gatlOn projects. Mr.. George f..
Brimmer, of Rawlins, Wyo., advises
me that Mr.. Dudley, of the General
Land Office, and he called upon Mr..
Morris Bien, acting director, today in
regard to the matter and had a very eX-
tended discussion as to the situation.
During the course of this discussion
the report of the board of review on
the Nortn Ilatte cooperative inyeSti-
cations, which was forwarded to the
secretary of the interior on September
4, 1920, by the board. composed of
l.. G. Carpenter, Frank C.. Emerson.
II Il. A. Moritz, was considered. and
Mr.. Brimmer advises me that he nm
derstands that the attitude of the de.
partment, as set forh by Mr. Bien. in
relation to his report. was as follows !:

SPEED UP SHIPPING

Four Thousand Bodies Sent to

Twenty thousand bodies OF American
soldiers who fell in France either have
been shipped TO the United States
or now are in process Of being re

country.

plans are fulfilled.
The bodies OF the Americans have
been taken from every cemetery In

Of the effort now Is being concentrated
In the zone Of the armIes-the Argonne,

soldiers who died In Italy will he re-

The graves registration service now
Is working in Berlin on arrangements
for shipping the bodies of 100
American soldiers who are buried in
various parts Of unoccupied Germany.
This latter work was rendered very
difficult because the Location of many
Of the graves was unknown. An
expert has been going over the Ger
man burial records In Berlin for
several weeks and virtually all the
graves have been found. The Ger
man government has afforded every
facility TO the graves registration
service.
More than 10000 bodies will be
buried in the four permanent GENE

will maintain in France.

but again comes up that inherent desire
to buy from the far away place.
Some time ago one Of Logan's best citi-
zens went into the chicken business. He
purchase some birds of the very highest
strains of blood, and succeeded in raising
a very fine flock. From time to time his
friends and neighbors and fellow citizens
would call up over the phone and inquire
as to the price of eggs. Two dollars a
throw seemed high price for the home
product, but three and four dollars for
the far away article did not seem haf bad
and as result the money went to the far
away chicken raiser. Finally the local
citizen put little advertisement in
farm paper in the middle west with the
result that orders for eggs and chickens
from that locality came rushing in and he.
has since enjoyed profitable business.
And now local citizens are buying choice
hens and ROSTERS Matched from local eggs
that are sold at fancy price and parcel
posted many miles away. And that's the
way 1T goes.
Perhaps it would be well for the owners
of these blooded calves to advertise their
sale in other states and they might dupli-
cate the experience of our local chicken
farmer. Distance lends enchantment. It's
bugaboo; it's like the empty chun.
nothing in it, but it gets there just the
same.
