Hans Lobert, the loquacious Fort

riot with his wife at the park opera
But last Sunday morning he was
perched on the sea wall at the juno
ton with a face of some radiance
Then, too, he was dressed up in
manner he had never appeared i'll
hereabouts before. He wore Knick-
erbockers, with plaid stockings, a
blouse flannel shirt and a golf cap.
''Say, Hans, you look like a sport
to-day. What's up now2" he was
asked by his friend the reporter.
''Vell, I'm oop at der present" he
replied, with a wink.

SONORA FARMERS
ARE BUSY AGAIN
Scarcity of Mining Team
sters-'sThe Widow Ia
lamanteS" MYTH

Douglas, Ariz. Aug. 25.-'It has
been exceedingly difficult to secure
freighters to haul our ore" said o. L
Neer after returning from Sonora
Freighters are absolutely necessary to
US, as our property is located so miles
from the nearest railroad. still I do
not find that the lack of teamsters is
a bad sign as teams are in poor con-
dition because they have been used
for blowing. Food is important to the
people and the return to farming
shows that Sonora is being rapidly
pacified. The wait is bad for the
miners for the present but It looks
good for the future"
The vicinity of Cumpas has been
visited by series of terrific storms.
Mr.. Neer states.
Chiapas Now In jail.
Speculation is now rife throughout
Sonora as to the final disposition of
Col Chiapas In jail in Nogales. 1t is
hardly thought that mis- life will be
spared as it Is said that during his
service in Sonora he was noted for
his brutality and the hardships he in
flicted needlessly upon the people un-
der his control Chiapas was respon-
sible for the death of former jefe
politicio Talamates and two sons, of
Sahuaripa, during the insurrection, be-
cause they left the federal service.
This gave rise to the notorious fake
story that the widow Talamantes",
had equipped a regiment of soldiers
and was leading them after Chiapas.
The widow. as a matter of fact, never
left her home and never equipped any
insurrection-
The well for the county poor farm
has finally been completed and ac-
cepted by the supervisors. The well is
700 feet In depth and the water comes
to within 26 feet Of the surface
Miguel Lopez Torres, for several
years consul for the Mexican govern
ment at Naco, has been temporarily
transferred to Douglas. relieving act
ing consul Garma, who goes as consul
to Guatemala for his country. Mex
leo is being rapidly pacified," said Mr.
Torres.
William j. Slaughter, aged SO years.
Is dead as the result OF tuberculosis
enduring for more than three years
He was the son OF John II. Slaughter,
OF the San Bernardino ranch, and was
born in the state of Texas, and until
about four years ago was associated
with his father in the cattle business.
At that time he purchased the Douglas
Hardware company.

~ UTILIZATION has its roots In
the soil Science. as well as
Scripture, teaches us that, even
as individuals. our foundation is In
the dust. and that our success largely
depends upon the intelligent heed
that we give to the physical basis OF
life.
Now the soil sustains much the
same relation to civilization that body
does to mind. It is not its finest fea-
lures but it is its basis.
Whatever stress, then. we may lay
upon art science and religion, the
fundamental art and science is agri-
culture. Once let farming become an
abandoned profession and everything
would stop. Or, once let the soil be-
come exhausted, and there would be
an end to every other profession.
Our dependence upon dirt may be
a humiliating confession. but it is g
fact that we have eyerlastingly to
reckon with.
One Vital Way to Aid.
OF course, no amount of scientific
skill introduced into agriculture will
suffice TO overcome adverse weather
conditions. 1t would not have tenn
pered the heat nor broken the drouth
of this past summer, but it would pre-
vent results which, unless avoided,
Will issue In disaster 10 our country
and to all its interests
There is the need of conserving the
natural efficiency of the soil by re-
storing to it those chemical properties
which are taken from it by the de-

Everything that grows in the

Every crop leaves the soil poorer in
the autumn than IL was in the spring.
