cans who know their Egypt would be
surprised to see the change in those
resorts they have been wont to fre
quent on the Nile or in upper Egypt,
where the tourist Is now so little in
evidence.
At Luxor the transformation la even
more complete than elsewhere. The
leading hotels, formerly the resort of
large crowds of fashionable Americans
and other . nationals, have now been
converted into vast convalescent bos
pltals. Here, khaki holds the fort In
all Its varieties. Soldiers are coming
and going au the time, there being ac
commodation for. over 2000 officers
and men who quickly recover In -the
splendid air whiclv. has so long been
the happy hunting ground of invalids.
The result of all this Is that the
civilian visitors, mighty few in num
ber, are huddled into corners wherever
room can fie ' round Tor them and are
obliged to walk out to Karaak to see
the ancient temples and to climb the
Pylons, If they hays the courage. .A

In Indian Hospital
Bed Van Kara Custom of Abandoning
Buildings In Which TAS e Su
FumI Away.
Lawton, Okla., March 12. The Kio
wa Indian agency hospital, on the res
ervation near here, has completed the
fourth month of active work. Dr. J.
O. Janney Is in charge of the Indian
hospital.
The Indian hospital differs from
hospitals patronised by white persons
who are ill in that no Indian patient
Is permitted to die in the building. The
Indians have an aversion to entering
a building in which a person has died.
Should an Indian patient die in the
Kiowa Indian agency hospital, the hos
pital would lose its usefulness so far
as the members of the Kiowa, Com
anche, Apache, Caddo and Wichita
tribes are concerned. It is an Indian
custom to abandon the building in
which a death occurs and to burn
much of the property of the dead In
dian. About 15 patients are received
each week at the Kiowa Indian agency
hospital. ' ; ..

Which Blanketed Soil All Winter.
The Dalles. Or., March 13.- The
early prospects for fruit, grain and
vegetables in Wasco county are un
procedentedly bright, according to
the unanimous verdict or ranchers
and authorities on agriculture. Con
ditions have been ideal throughout
the winter. Unusually heavy snows
afforded a generous amount of mois
ture and at the same time provided
a protective blanket for the soil.
During the past several weeks,
heavy rains have been experienced
and the precipitation for the past
six months exceeds by two and one
half Inches the moisture which Is or
dinarily received during an entire
year in this section. Weather con
ditions have been such that the
ground has retained all of the mois
ture. The snows left si owl y and the
ground was not frozen at any time.
The wheat acreage in this section
is 25 per cent short of normal. The
cherry and pear yields will be ma
terially, increased by the hundreds of
trees mat win Dear tnis year, com
mercially, for the first time. The
institution of the Llbby, McNeill and
Libby cannery and the fruit drier of
the Dri-Fresh company last year
are the reasons for the record break
