Dipping NavaIe Sheen.

c. k. Ellis and D. K. Morris, in- spectors of the federal bureau of animal industry. who have had charge of portion of the dipping of sheep owned by Indians in Ariz- ona. have just made their reports says Albuquerque Citizen.
 'The dipping season in Arizona IS about over. although few strag- gling sheep are still being dipped right along. Since we began dip- ping several months ago. about 600, : ON sheep and goats owned by the Indians have been dipped. thirds of that number being sheep" says Ellis.
 Very few sheep have died from the dipping. as far as we have learn- ed. At Houck 27.OOO sheep and goats were dipped and only one ani- maj died and that was the first day. At the other dipping stations the work was completed without any trouble |: ~ss ..u.:
 In talking about the occasional trouble the inspectors have with na- tive. American and Indian sheep owners Ellis said
 We have partictically no trouble with the Indian, after he learns that we mean to rid his sheep of the scabies. The native sheep owner, however. generally raises a kick.
 The American owner realizes that his sheep will be worth more after it has been dipped and consents to the dipping at once. ''
 Ellis has been connected with the bur .au of animal industry since it's inception several years ago. and as a result of efficient work he has been transferred to the bureau of biolOgi- cal survey. with headquarters at Washington.
 The bureau of biological survey is making an exhaustive study of the American birds their value to the American farmer. and agri- culture in general.

Coffin were at the Santa Fe freight depot load ing freight, a freight train backed in on the house track and hutted the wagons off the track. A freight car was in the way so that neither the wagon drivers nor the brakeman who was giving the signal, saw each other. Coffin's wagon was broken into splinters, and the Bab- bitt big dray was badly damaged, and the drivers think they were lucky in getting out of the accident without scratch.
