flONAI FOREST. via Grants Pass. Or..
luly 18. (Special.) T'. esday Is the big
day. It is the 21st and early In the
morning 1 shall be up. I shall probab y
dress for the last time for a month in
the clothes of the civilised world. I
suppose I have to do that, but before
coon on Tuesday I shall take them off
asaln and I shall chuck them aside for
a ions while.
I've worked about the camp all day
Setting things straightened out so the
men here will be as comfortable as pos
iblo while I am in the woods. I took
a short run up the trail and my feet
are in rood condition for the barefoot
tunt I will have to perform for some
time after I enter the woods. It won't
be long, for my feet will be the first
things I look after and I shaU have
some kind of a temporary covering with
in a short time after I say goodby.
That won't be so very hard, but the
makeshift will have to stay on my feet
until they wear out or until I catch
some animal that will furnish me with
the material for a pair of shoes or
moccasins that will last me a long
t'me.
First Twe Days Prwblesn.
I am going to tell you about what 1
am going to do for the first two days or
so in the forests after I am alone, and
afterward I am again going to tell you
why I am making this experiment ana
what I hope to accomplish by It. Tues
day some time (I have not decided yet
at what hour I shall enter these woods
about me) I shall strip to the skin. I
hall hand my clothes, my watch and
hat other trinkets I have with me to
em of the men in my party and 1 shall
v.fAr. thm all a naked man. I
want thera to search me. I want them
to go over me In the same manner that
the Kaffirs are gone over in tne uia
xnond mines of South Africa to be abso
lutely positive that I have nothing con
cealed on any part of my body. I shall
Insist that Professor Waterman and
Professor Edwards go over my entire
body, and I shall not go to the woods
until I am assured that they are both
satisfied I have nothing concealed.
Plaa la to Speak. to S Oae.
If I have my own way. and I hope I
will. I shall speak to no human being
for at least 20 days. I shall dive Into
the forest and the outside world will
le a closed book to me until my re
turn. It is possible that nature will
beat me. It is possible that I shall
riever return to shake hands with the
men who said goodbye to me, but I
believe that I shall, and I have every
confidence in the belief that I shall
return safe and well at the end of
whatever period I remain as the prim
itive man.
Professor Waterman and Professor
Ed wards will follow me Into the for
est I have not been told what either
of them will eio, but so far as I am left
alone, without interruption or hin
drance. I have no objection.
I shall eat a good meal before I leave

PTTERTA MEXICO, July 18. Unwill
ingness to leave-behind any friends
who want to accompany mm into
and failure to select a vessel to carry
them beyond the reach of the constitu
tionalists, has resulted In the post
ponement by President Huerta of his
departure for perhaps several days.
With contemptuous disregard for his
enemies in the interior, who 'would
shove him off Mexican soil If they were
able General Huerta shrugged his
shoulders and laughed at the difficul
ty, which will force him to remain in
the country some days longer; but most
of the members of the party snowed
much disappointment because they
could not get out before tomorrow.
A' message received late tonight from
President Carbajal refused the use of
the Mexican gunboats for that purpose.
The message explalnd that it was not
deemed wise at this time that the Mex
ican warships should be used for such
a purpose, but said the government
would pay for the use of any vessel
that Huerta might charter.
People Show Only Curiosity.
Huerta spent a dull day. the greatest
break In its monotony being a call on
the captain of the German cruiser
Dresden. A small crowd gathered to
watch him alight from the train and go
aboard the' cruiser lying a short dis
tance out, out when the stubby old man
in plain clothes, accompanied by Gen
eral Blanquet In full uniform and three
members of his staff, walked to the
landing where the Dresden launch was
waiting, there was no evidence of emo
tion other than curiosity.
Someone lifted up his voice in a thin
"viva," but the answering call was
thinner stllL The spectators were the
idle element, and they were there to
see, and nothing more.
Formality Wholly Lacking.
Huerta went over the side with the
requisite number of sailors at the rail,
but there was no salute. Anything re-

Kansas farmers will hold 100,000,000
bushels of whfet this year, or 25.000,
000 bushels more than the entire crop
of 1913. according to W. H. Mitchell,
National vice-president of the Farmers'
Society of Equity.
Mr. Mitchell is organizing the farm
ers of Kansas and urging them to hold
their immense crop for higher prices
Sixty-cent wheat In Kansas has be
d has turned the
CUIUO
thoughts of the farmer to the posslbil
itr of holding his grain. When the or
a-anlzers arrive In a community they
find little opposition to the idea of
holding the grain. Mr. Mitchell saio.

will be sold." said Mr. Mitchell.
Grain bins of frame and cement con
etruction are being rushed all over the
state, and in many places wheat is
being piled on the ground by farmers
who refuse to accept present prices
for It
The Farmers' Society of Equity Is
campaigning for dollar wheat, but the
Kahsas members will sell their grain
for less than that figure, it is gener
allv believed. Most of .them are pre
paring to hold for higher prices than
the ' 60-odd cents now oiierea,
how-
ever. '
Harvest Hands Savin Money,
The money order sections of the
nostoffices In Kansas
nrove that this year is an exception
with the harvest band, as well as the
wheat-growing farmer, for the harvest
hand is sending his money home, inie
Is probably due to two causes. One Is
that the harvest hand has learned the
nf monev. and the other, the
farmer has learned that he must pro
tect his helpers to be sure of getting
them when they are needed.
For years the popular diversion with
a certain crowd of men who followed
the harvest was "harvesting the har
vest hand." Gamblers began in Kan
sas and worked with the harvest to
the Canadian border. Some of them
even worked in the fields, to be better
enabled to separate the harvest hand
from his money. There was every sort
of game that would be easily trans
ported and quickly hidden. The lay
outs were not of the fancy kind, but
they brought quick action on the
wagers made, and the quick action re
sulted in shifting the money from the
worker to the gambler.
This year a dozen men have been
arrested for attempting to defraud har
vest hands.
