Latest dispatches from Ogden convey the information that all the camps are to be recruited up to the 200 allotment as originally planned, 3500 additional men to be enrolled from the states affected by these orders. At present the two camps in Beaver County consist of about 125 men each. National forest camps in Utah will get an additional 1379 men; in southeastern Idaho 1025 additional men; in Nevada 107 additional men, and in Wyoming 972 additional men. Zion national park in Utah will need 49 additional men to fill its quota. These additional men will be selected from among those who have had some experience in mountain and forest work and who are fitted to exercise a wholesome leadership among the younger enrolled men; they may be married or single and the 18 to 25 year age limit loes not apply, but the men selected must come from among the unemployed.

S. TOLTON (Twenty-fift- h Istallment) tations. Central Cuba Is a little more than a vast sugar estate, divided up Into large and small farms. On one you will find them plowing the fields with machine plows and another the same work Is done by oxen which pull the plows, by yokes attached to their horns. Yon will find thousands of Tutored people at work, planting cane, just as In Hawaii and Java, but the soil Is so rich here that the plant ing need be done only once every five or six years. Cuba Is said to have better sugar soil than any other country. The land Is not fertilized, but neverthe less it yields more cane sugar than any other island. Many of the sugar estates are own edby wealthy men, who employ lar ge capital to run them. Some have mills that grind athousand tons of cane in twentyfour hours. You will see the women doing the work. They are planting, holpg and cutting the cane this would be a splendid place to live, where the women do the work. Some plantations have nurseries where the babys and little children are watched over by the old women, while their mothers are at .Work In the fields. Cuba grows better tobacco than any other country of the world. I have visited the fields of Mississippi Tennesseee and other Alabama, states of the South; Mexico, Central and South America. But they do not compare with the varieties raised In the mountainous region of Pinar del Rio, West of Havana. It is so fine that it commands very high prices. The choicest leaves bringing as high as four dollars a pound. The plants are grown in beds, where seeds are sown in September and In six or seven weeks the plants are about eight Inches high and ready to be set out. After this they are prunned with the thumb nail, as this Is less liable to injure them than with a knife. About January they are almost ripe. They have grown as tall as a man and their dark green leaves are turning yel low. The stalks are now cut into sections of two leaves each and the sections are hung on poles and carried to the drying house, where they remain until they are properly cured. After this they are fermented and then made up into bundles, where they are shipped to all parts of the United States and the world. About eighty thousand people are employed in cultivating Cuban tobacco, and In the factories of Havana and other cities a vast number are engaged in manufacturing cigars and cigarettes. The crop amounts to many millions of dollars.

We left on the Hous ton Texas Central Railroad, far Salt Lake City, by way of Fort Worth, where we remained a day visiting. Then on to Denver, Colorado, and Wyoming. Arrived In Salt Lake City February 7th, 1802, where we remained one day. Rported at the office of the first Presidency, then visited friends in the city. Next morning treked to Provo, checked over our shipments of sklna and other wares, visited classes for two days. Arrived home February Uth. Found all well. Since leaving home, my travels have taken me through Ariz,, Mex., Central America, and South America returning home through the Carri-bbea- n sea, by way of the West Indie Islands, crossing the Gulf of Mexico to the good old U. S. A. Consisting, according to my tabulation, a little better than fifteen thousand miles. Crossed the Continent, from sea to sea, eight times during our Journey at different places. Distance travelled per day by mule back was from fifteen to thirty miles, depending entirely upon feed and water for our animuls as they were forced almost exclusively to forage. I kept record of the altitude, temperature, weather conditions, miles traveled eavh day, also distances traveled In each country, making everthing as complete as possible for my own convenience. During our travels our experiences have been varied, both on land and on sea, contacting with many dangers, among the wild animals of the forests, reptiles of various kinds coming In contact with the various Indian tribes, visiting them In the unexplored regions oi the wilderness, in their habitats, and associating with them in their savage life. By doing so, have learned many things of Indian customs and religions. Have also gained much Information relative to their history and antecedents. Find them to have many good as well as bad qualities. By observation, taking a panoramic view, of the country In general, has many times been displayed before my vision In a garb of most gorgeous colors. More particularly the latter part of our Journey, which seemed we passed through a new world. Have wlttnessed many things In studying the Lamanltes, visiting the many ruined cities, paved highways and other things of Ancient character. Have found many external ev idences pertaining to the book of Mormon, proving to me that this book is true and divine, and bear my humble tesimony that it is a true record of the Lamanite and other people that lived upon this contin ent anciently.
