The camel is steady and uniform. How tireless they are is shown by the fact that the lighter type of desert camel has often traversed 100 miles a day. It ix believed also that it will cost less to feed the camels than horses because these hump-backed animals will eat almost anything they can find-—tough walk 2.2 t vould horses woul pace of At any watched rate, with the experiment will be interest hy farmers in will never be adopted on a large scale, it is interesting, also, to recall that the United States government once made a somewhat similar experiment, uithough for a different purpose. Dur. ing the Mexican war, Jefferson Davis, lor's army, was struck by the fact that camels would be much better than horses or mules for transport service In the deserts of the great Southwest, Ro when he became secretary of war under President Franklin Plerce he determined to make the experiment, and after some effort succeeded In ISS in getting an appropriation of £30,000 from congress for that pur pose, Accordingly he detailed Maj. Henry CC. Wayne to the task of going abroad and purchasing the camels, and the Navy department ordered Lieut. Da- vid Porter, commanding the storeship Supply, to take Wayne on his mission, ald him in getting the camels and re turn them to the United States, Wayne and Porter scoured the Levant quest and found that theirs was a difficult task. They vis Tunis, Salanica, Constantinople Crimea, Alexandria and. Smyrna war was then In prog and England had bought up the camels avaliable in that part of the country.

The camels were next marched overland to their permanent quarters at Camp Verde, 80 miles northwest of San An tonio, and Immediately put into trans port service where they soon’ démon- strated their usefulness, In ohe case fix camels, accompanied by two slix- mule teams, were sent in to San An tonie to carry back oats. The camels immediately returned to Camp Verde in 54 hours with 3.648 pounds of grain. The raule tears however had to rest in San Anton® a day longer and re turned in 86% hours, Within a few months the “camel corps” experimen was considered such a success that Lieutenants Por ter and Heaps were sent back to the Levant to get another lot of the an- imale. They returned with 41, and the scope of the “camel corps” ac- tivity widened. Lieut. Edwdrd F. Beale used 20 of them to carry sup plies while building a wagon road from New Mexico to California in 1857, and during the next four years he continued to use them in explor- ing trips through remote parts of New Mexico and Arizona. Despite the apparent success of the experiment, however, an element of discord arose that was due to the temperamental incompatability of the camels and the men who had charge of them, the American mule skin- pers. Almost from the start the mule skinners disliked the foreign beasts and as they became better acquainted Animas to a forage be which the four bales of hay a Po After loaded unds, been calmis arose as gearcely 3 i cussedness of th om skinners So with the “gene ornery Came to em the reports that some had “become unma the albeit the can aided In themselyes, the npproach the atfention the mule jesg and of the cable a becn els were “ong ape” by a 3 ai love th OBR, CHINELS nd nag es caped into desert” me fre quer $f. {re their ie en Then caused of the Civil war of the War de- turned to affairs of and the greater Importance corps” suffered from negiect rtment had 28 camels at without be In 1862 Li ie wrote Secrelary Stant fornia any use cuten TPCT 1 ya i i A fied r : ocona Wi RDG for uthwest further exploration {hem the So use ected BE Was rying using them ng Fort Moje Pedro 1 was sold to Samuel Me rhiin, tween Nan herd were USER, 1 thes of them others to other parties, nd so ide ime the herd at 3 in t Verde In © meant Camg ¢ Texas had passed into the Confederate government which paid little attention to them, them were lowed to 3 140 + TT » wander away into the dCeser T hie 44 In ’ ands of the number, Un i} Clore Aili CRIME » oxistence of the rps’ ar interesting histor: They inlf-free were various § New.

Others made such nuirance of themselves hy scaring and stampeding the horses and mules of the overland stage lines and freight. ing outfits that war was declared upon them. and white hunters killed many of. them. However, as late the eightisg there still were camels in the Southwest and the tradition of “wild camels,” reported from time to time by prospectors and cattle men, that section of as was a favorite one In the country for many years. The last mention of the survivers of Uncle Sam's “camel corpe™ was in 1903 when a newspaper in San Antonio carried a story about a camel in a midway shew bearing the “U. 8 A" brand as purchaser. Similar experiments with camels wére tried at one time or another in other states besides those of the Southwest. In 1866 they were used for a time for freighting between the gold camps of that state and in the same year a man named L. 8. Mus. grave appeared in Denver with twp camels. He had an ambitious scheme for a system of camel transport from Omaha to San Francisco via Denver and Ralt Lake City, but got little en- couragement in the Colorado town, So he departed for Omaha, but there he found that everyone was more in- terested in the plang for the trans continental railroad which, three years Inter, inked the two coasts and his camel scheme was dropped.
