LAND AND STOCK TO HE
SOLD AT AUCTION
'.'ranmnrc Bros. Will Soil Five Sec
tions of Land and Over 250 Head
of Stock on October 15
R, C. and J. C. Cranmore, who
operate a ranch 15 miles south of
Bingham, In Sheridan county, have
determined to go out of business and
will sell their five sections of land
and over 200 head of cattle, together
with over 50 head of horses at pub
lic auction at their ranch on Mon
day, October 15.
The five sections of land to be sold
at auction all Join up. The property
will cut 200 tons of hay. Sixty-five
acres are in alfalfa and the balance
of the hay land is In wild hay. Some
75 acres are under cultivation. The
machinery and hay already cut will
Camp Funston, Kas. When a boy
has been acrustomed to lying in bed
until 7 or 8 o'clock In the morning,
when he has been accustomed to be
ing called three or four times before
getting up, and has been used to hav
ing some one wash his dishes and
clothes and when he has been allow
ed to go when and where he pleases
any time he wished and now Jumps
out of warm blankets into the cold,
chilly atmosphere of a 1st fall morn
ing at the sound of a shrill hlstle at
5:45 o'clock, gets out in front of the
barracks, the soldier's home, where
he goes through ten minutes of set
ting up exercises, eats ureakfast,
washes his own dishes, makes his
own bed, sweeps the floor space
around his cot and marches out for
a hard day's work at 7:00 a. m. he
necessarily has become a very much
changed boy. Even If mother or
wives aennot Imagine their men do
ing these things It Is Just what they
are doing down In the soldier's train
ing camp at Funston.
The men have entered an entirely
new line than they have ever been
accustomed to before. The average
freedom loving civilian cannot real
ize what it Is like until he gets Into
It. The men are treated kindly but
the Idea of being told Just what to
do and when to do 11 is far different
than being one's own individual boss.
Every man gets the same treat
ment. Each one is the other's equal
in the eyes of the officers as the men
begin their work. Shortly after the
men arrive in camp they are thor
oughly quizzed as to past work, their
eeneral and special abilities and the
like. It Is generally understood that
this is the method the government
will use in selecting the men for the
different lines of services. Each cap
tain will watch his men closely. If a
man shows signs of being a good en
gineer he will no doubt be placed In
that department. If he shows evi
dence of being a leader of men he
will be placed in a position to use
that ability. It is understood in
Camp Funston that men for the next
officers' training camp will be picked
from this great National army. For
the first few weeks or perhaps two
months the men wll Ibe given drill
trailing entirely and perhaps branch
from this into the various services.
Every man starts out on the
footing. Millionaires and poor men
eat the same food, wash their owa
dishes In the same dish water, shave
themselves in the same hath houses
and sleep within three feet of each
other.
The "rookie's" life runs something
like this: A piercing whistle and a
command "everybody up" st 6:45 la
the morning starts the day's woik.
Within ten minutes another whistle
calls the men to assemble In front of
the barracks for roll call and setting
up exercises, a sort of appetiser,
though that is hardly necessary.
Mess Is served cafeteria style, every
man huvlng his own Individual kit
of dishes which consists of aluminum
plate, pan, cup, knife, spoon and fork.
The "rookie" must have bis dishes
washed, his bed made up and hi
floor space swept by 6:45. At 7: Of
the company assembles before the
barracks and marches in company to
the drill or parade grounds. Good.
imrd drill, setting-up exercises, and
athletic stunts until 1150, gives the
s Idler the necessary desire to eat at
noon.
At 1 p. m. the company again as
sembles in front of the barracks and
marches to the drill grounds and Is
put through drills similar to those
given In the morning. The drills are
varied a great deal and non-commis
sioned officers' school from 4:30 to I
does not get as monotonous as one
might think. Some days the men are
taken on a two, three or four mile
hike. Later on these long marches
will be longer, the whole day being
used for this purpose alone.
Work for the privates is over at
5:30. Corporals and other non-com-ralsBloned
officers sre required to at
tend non-commissioned officers school
from 430 to 6 and report their work
to the captain in the evening. Sat
urday afternoon is given over to re
creation and, of coarse, Sunday Is a
day of rest. On these days the men
assemble in front of their barracks
at reveille and retreat, the assem
blies of morning and evening re
spectively. From all Indications the men whe
work and work hard are the ones
who will reap the rewards of non
commissioned officers and perhaps
litter commissioned officers, and alse
the rewards of special privileges..
