Dept. 21, Philadelphia. Pa. 
as Hollister, and before long Jim swerved 
the machine to the left onto a sandy, nar- 
row mountain road. The day was swel- 
tering. Across the parched desert heat 
waves rose steadily and vanished into the 
air. A warm wind fanned our faces. 
This, coupled with the engine heat, ren- 
dered the trip uncomfortable, and the 
rocky road and bouncing car did not Jd 
to the pleasure. 
While filling the boiling radiator with 
cool water on the summit of a barren 
hill a buzzard circled above and then 
swooped low in his search for rabbits 
and mice. Baked, roasted and fried with 
the heat as we were, there was undeniably 
something irresistible and appealing 
about it all — the eternal solitudes — the 
scorching wastes — the land which God 
forgot. 
pOUR o’clock saw us turn up the little 
* grass-grown lane leading to the sheep 
camp. INIost people would not have 
called it a road, it was so indistinct, but 
we had learned to follow rabbit or cattle 
trails almost as well as a cowbo}' so had 
no trouble following this lane. 
No sage hens had presented them- 
selves to us en route and we arrived at 
camp without even catching a glimpse 
of a feathered beauty. Camp was located 
as Jim had said, in the heart of wonder- 
ful hunting country. \’'ast acres of waste 
land surrounded us on every side. Small 
canons broke the almost unending mo- 
notony of the desert. 
We ran the car up near the door of 
the little house. A dog came running to 
meet us. Jim patted him briefly and he 
followed us around a little. On the table 
was a note saying that the camp-tender 
had gone to Twin Falls and would not 
return for several days. "We were told in 
the note to help ourselves but found it 
unnecessary since we had brought along 
everything needed in the grub line. The 
cabin was rudely furnished with table, 
chairs, beds, cupboard and stove, and we 
proceeded to make, ourselves at home. 
“Going after ’em to-night?’’ a;ked Jim 
with a look toward me. ‘Alight as well 
get warmed up to it, hadn’t we ?’’ 
“Whatever you say goes,” I agreed. 
“You’re the driver and you know the 
country. I’m ready.” 
“Alright, then go it is. S'pose that 
dog’s any good ?” 
I stooped down and patted him. 
“Looks more like a watch dog than 
anything else. But we can try him. 
Maybe he’ll be better than none.” 
I brought out the guns, which we put 
together ; shells were soon distributed 
and we struck out. 
“You take that canon,” Jim said, point- 
ing southward, “and I’ll go up the next 
one. We’ll meet at the top. In this way 
we can ascertain more definitely the 
whereabouts of the game this year.” 
Jim whistled shrilly and the dog fol- 
lowed him for a bit, then ran on ahead. 
He was always popular with the canine 
family. 
My course lay up a rocky draw fringed 
with sage brush and an occasional cedar. 
A small stream of water trickled along 
it and rushed downward rapidly. The 
late afternoon sun was disappearing be- 
hind a lofty mountain and the air already
