IN EXTREME HOT WEATHER.
Fish, Birds and Animals All Suffer by
the Heat Just as Men Do.

the Heat Just as Men Do.
Humans" said nature lover
"aTe by no means the only sufferers
from intense summer heat; there are
plenty of lower creatures that suffer.
Fish. for instance, are oppressed
by the heat just as men are, and il
they can't find shelter from it they
may be killed by it. In shallow fresh
water ponds fish sometimes die by
the hundred. killed by the excessive
heat of the water, warmed beyond
their endurance by the beating sun.
"In streams fish seek the shady
stretches and the deep places and the
spring holes where they can keep
cool. and i'm salt water fish go away
from the shallow overheated water
close to shore and seek the cooler
depths
Birds suffer in the same way, OPP
pressed by extreme heat. and how
they do welcome a chance to get cool!
Look at the sparrows in the city's
streets when the sprinkling cart goes
by leaving in the hollows Of the pave
ment little pools Of water that will
serve them for bathing places. How
eagerly the sparrow seeks this bah,
and it viii battle. II It gets the
chance, a dozen times day.
"It is just the same with domestic
fowls Extreme hot weather dis
trosscs them greatly; at such a time
you can see chickens with their beaks
open and fairly painting with the heat.
and then they want plenty OF water.
"Cows2 or course On the very

they are bothered by flies the COWS

Attacks OF Sieeplness-Often Result
Of Owlish Habits.
Sleepiness is normal and healthy
condition when IL occurs at the usual
bedtime, and when not extreme and
oyerpowering, but it is not always
associated with sleep. Some persons
in perfect health. and excellent sleep
ers, hardly know the meanink of
drowsiness: they are active mentally
and physically until they are in bed:
then sleep comes at once, and when
IL leaves them in the morning they
are again In full mental awakeness.
There are less fortunate persons,
who never have a complete and salts
factory nights rest, who are yet al
most constantly drowsy; they are al
ways nodding, but when the head
touches the pillow sleep recedes, and
the night is succession OF drowsy
lapses to sleep with the instant re-
turn of semi-consciousness.
In general, with the exception noted
at the beginning of this article, drow-
siness is abnormal, and indicates
something wrong. either in the body
who habitually cut off their hours Of
sleep, the might owls" and the burn
ers OF midnight oil, pay for their bad
habit by attacks OF sleepiness in the
afternoon and early evening; later,
unfortunately, after the influence OF
digestion wears off, the drowsiness
appears, and then, relieved OF his
burden, the person sits up to ali
hours" again, thinking in that way
to make up for the hours lost by
drowsiness. If he would abandon his
owlish habits, go to bed betimes and
get his seven or eight hours of con-
tinuous sleep that he needs, his day
time and evening drowsiness would
disappear, he could do more and bet
ter work, and find life much more en-
joyable.
A slight drowsiness is often noticed
after a hearty meal, because active
digestion draws a greater volume OF
blood to the stomach, so that the
brain is relatively poorly supplied.
In some southern countries this ten
dency is favored, and the slesta after
the noon meal is a national custom.
With us, the after dinner cup of black
coffee often drives away the impulse
to sleep-whether for good or i'll may
be left to the psychologists to deter
mine.
Sometimes we hear Of attacks OF
sleepiness occurring suddenly at
certain periods OF the day or at ir-
regular intervals. These are alto
gether abnormal and in such cases
there is almost always some poison
at work in the nervous centers-
usually a self-manufactured poison,
which, because ii is made in too great
quantity, or because constipation or
kidney disease prevents its rapid
elimination, accumulates in the sys-
tenn.
An essential in the treatment OF
such cases is dieting. Meat should
be given up, for time at least, and
the only beverage allowable 10 water
or milk.-Youth's Companion.

was from s cents to 16A cents, and that on "buffs"-the hides of ycarlings used for uppers-was from 61. to 14lA cents. This is 120 per cent. Now it cannot be too clearly stated that there was nothing in the condition of the buying side of the market to warrant any such upward movement; on the contrary. the number of pairs of shoes manufactured in the United States was someyhat smaller during the sec Ond twelve months than during the first. The advance was purely specu- lative, and the trusts methods were responsible for it.
 What the Packers Did.
 Tn it's campaign, for the control of the tanning industry the packers pur- sued a very insidious policy. They sent their agents to tanners, who were worried over the high prices, to say You can't buy hides at the present fig ures and make any money selling leather. Now we have a large quantity of hides we want tanned. What will you do it for? As result q number of tanners became cushion tanners for the packers, and the product was dis posed of through selling agencies. op- crating under various names Then when the tanner had become absolute ly dependent upon the packer the

packer said: We want to buy your plant and the tanner would have to sell at a nominal price, for his business was gone. It was just as if a man were to come to me here and say: we'll take your entire outfit for year. At the end of that time we shouldn't have any selling connections or any trade. Well, it was so with the tanners.
 This went on until the packers own ed thirty tanneries, making about 20 per cent of the leather of the United States. Six months ago they began selling openly. The Armour Leather company has it's representatives out now among the shoe manufacturers We began to hear that the shoe fac tories were only waiting until public sentiment would be in a condition to permit it. Then we got busy. It has been quiet campaign, but We have worked. My committee has sent out over 1O0,00O,000 pieces of literature.
 What have we gained? We've gained an open market. It will be a stable one, too. It has been very hard to do business recently because we had to reckon not only with uncertainties of trade, but on the speculative manip- ulations of the trust. Now that is elim- mated. The United States has been buying about g per cent of their hides from Brazil and Argentina. A few

Wickenburg. Aug. 1S.-(Special cor respondence of The Republican)- is now definitely understood that the Central Arizona Power Co.'S plant, which shut down Friday night. will again soon be in operation. After a tour of inspection yesterday by the following officials of the company, C. E. Miesse of Chicago. president; w. J. Carriden of Chicago, secretary; Dr. z. B. Campbell O fOxford. Oiho, treas urer: w w. Wishon of Austin, Nev. general manager; and Marvin w. Dit to of Chicago. consulting engineer. it was decided to make a few changes in the way of improvements. The present plans are to make the en- zines compound and to equip them with a condensing apparatus. When this is accomplished, it will not only mean an increased power capacity, but will effect tremendous saving in the cost of operation as well The party witnessed a trial run of the plant, which, as a whole. proved very satisfactory and showed what could be done by the present type of equip ment. With the exception of the ad ditiOnal improvements just decided upon the plant is completed. and when they are installed will make the work ings of the plant reach very high point of efficiency.

Since the extravagant- ly high prices for leather have pre- vailed the average profit for the trade as whole has been but cents per pair.
 Where does the public 'come in? There are four great packing syndi- cates-the ArmOurs, Cudahys, Swifts and Nelson Morris. There are 800 shoe manufacturers and competition is bitter. They're at each others threats all the time. Which is better for the public-to be at the mercy of four packers who understand each other or of 500 manufacturers who compete?
 The whole credit of the victory be- longs to President Taft. Aldrich stated in the senate that he was against the abolition of the duty on the last day of the fight. Taft was judicial. He listened. Our leading trade journal said recently that the winning of the fight for free hides depends on being able to show honesty and sincerity of purpose on the part of the manufac- turers against the able tacticians, who represent the beef trust and so it has proved.

GRAFTON Tuesday And then Mr.
Campbell proceeded to point out how
entirely inadequate to the demands
is the Honolulu water system and
how necessary tis that an up-to-date
system of water supply and filtration
be Installed. MIR. Campbell strongly
advocated an arteslan system, which.
he said, would provide bountlful
supply of pure water. filtered through
the underground channels of the
earth. He insisted that the old fat
rate system of selling the city water
must be abandoned and meter sys-
TEN substituted to check the waste of
the precious fluid. Water is a COM
modify" he said. "the minute a man
has to pay for what he wastes, he
doesn't waste"
Superintendent Campbelrs address
was given at what was intended to
be the annual meeting of the Civic
Federation but wasn't. DR.. Scuddcr
called the meeting to order and the
reports of the various officers and
committees were read. The election
of officers was the next order Of bus
mess, but while the voting slips were
being passed around, Judge Perry
called attention to the fact that there
was not a quorum present. and on
his motion the meeting adjourned, to
convene again on call of the presi-
dent for the election of officers. Mars
ton Campbell was then called upon
to give his illustrated talk on the
water supply of the city.

proXimately, as nearly as we can
measure II, 100000 gallons every
"a hours. With u population of,
roughly, $4,000 this means that we
have, in proportion. the largest water
consumption OF any city in the Unit
ed States or Europe. San Francisco
uses only from 100000 to 10000
600 gallons per day. Practically the
total supply here is used for domestic
and irrigation purposes. This is a
semi-tropic country and the con-
sumption and requirements are neces-
sarily higher here than anywhere
else. We use from $50 to 400 gallons
per capita each day. The point Of all
this is that we must do something
to add to the supply and improve the
quality OF our water.
