Using Dirt In Manufacture Of Flour.

Using Dirt In Manufacture Of Flour.
1t Is an unenviable reputation that
Greensboro Is making as the ship
ping point for an adulterant for
flour, though 1t Is possible that the
shipper here does not know that his
white clay is to be dishonesty used.
We wonder who 1t 10 that Is supply
ing "mineraline." It may be well
to examine the -four you are using
carefully. to see that you are not
buying white dirt. And the men
who are mixing clay with -four
ought to be transported to the peni-
Tertiary with rs much dispatch as
the law provides for.-Greensboro

Phoenix should take her hat off to
 l.. C. Charles. who runs a carriage
 painting emporium in this city. He
 has been here three or four years. and
 has become thoroughly saturated
 with information concerning the valley and enthused over the
 upbuilding the city, though he restraints himself from any noisy dem onstration. Early in the summer he had to go back to Indianapolis, on pri- vate business. His old friends and neighbors flocked around him to hear about Arizona. He told them a few things; just enough to interest them. and not enough to weary them. He made it. appear that Arizona had a good thing and was not concerned about the future. though when pressed he admitted that it was the right place for the right people to come The re- suit was that when he got on the train to come home a whole family of his old friends was there to come with him. Yesterday another family having heard nothing but good reports since their curiosity was first aroused. Both families are well pleased and say their only criticism of Mrs. Charles is that he didn't tell them more and tell it sooner He only half painted the picture and was altogether too stingy with his tinting. If he had turned himself loose when he was back east half of Indianapolis would not be working its way west along the transcontineltal lines.

NO MORE CATARRH.
The Larson Drug Go. Will Not Allow
 It to Exist in Phoenix.

"There will be no more catarrh in Phoenix" say The Larson Drug Co. unless people fail to follow the law of common sense"
 The Larson Drug Co. makes this statement because of the great sue cess that has followed the use of Hyomei in the treatment of catarrhal troubles. So positive is this treat ment in quick relief and permanent cure that they sell it under an ab- solute guarantee to refund the money for it.
 There is no other treatment or med icinc for catarrhal troubles that is at all like Hyomei It follows natures plan in curing diseases of the throat and lungs by bringing healing medi- cation right to the very spot where the disease germs exist. With this treatment, health-giving oils and balsams are breathed through a neat pocket inhaler that comes with every outfit. so that every breath you take while using Hyomei is a breath of healing air. It kills all catarrhal germs and prevents their growth. so that the cure is thorough and perma- nent.
 Remember that Hyomei is sold un- der a guarantee to cost nothing un- less it cures. If you have any catar- rhal trouble, you should take advan- tage of The Larson Drug Co.'S liberal offer.

ter in this issue. The Republican has found 1t necessary to leave out its ! large display advertisement in which
 the magnetic silver spoon premiums are offered. The offer still remains
 however. and those who desire to se-
 cure a set of the spoons. are urged to hurry If the demand continues until
 Saturday the first lot of 500 sets will
 have been exhausted. A like number of sets are on the road, however. and will be here in a short time. Pending the arrival. The Republican would
 like to get as many orders booked ahead as possible. The spoon adver- tisement first appeared in the Sunday morning issue of this paper and about 400 sets have been disposed Of already. There Is a moral in this fact for any person who may still have a lingering doubt about the advertising columns Of The Republican being read.
 AUSTRALIAN MlLLET. J. L Chapman. who lives on a ranch east of the Indian school. under the Arizo- nG canal. brought to The Republican office grain sample of merit; some thing il would appear that the valley farmers should know more about. It Is Australian millet, grown by Mir. Chapman mainly for chicken feed. The sample is four feet in height. the grain being abundant. The kernels or seed resemble broom corn very much in general appearance and are said to make an excellent food for poultry. The stray and leaves on the sample sheaf indicate that the. would make excellent forage also. as far as a pen Cil Dusher could judge. particular virtue of the plant is its quick growth. Mir.

 BIGGEST EGG PLANT.-The big gest egg plant in the world. grown on an egg plant. has been raised in this valley. If il is not the biggest 1t is the biggest on record hereabout. and is surely as large as any self respect ing egg" can grow and retain good health. It weighs four pounds. and that is saving a great deal for this vegetable Is not noted for its specific gravity to the cubic inch. This par ticular specimen is larger than some pumpkins that find their way to mar ket and Secretary Cowgirl has nothing in the line Of glass jars at the board of trade that will begin to accommo- date it. He would like to preserve it if possible. but he has devised no way for doing so vet unless he can embalm it. The vegetable was grown by some local resident whose name was not learned. and taken to market in the regular course Of business. A citizen seeing it offered for sale, bought it and presented it to the board of trade. It will be noted that it is called an egg plant in the headline. and later. an egg. This is to cover all mistakes for the writer is not informed which is the correct name. The entire plant is an egg plant, and this is the fruit of it. The fruit being only part of the plant. must be merely the egg. If the egg alone is an egg plant, what is the plant alone?
