A hunter in the north, stalking deer,
saw a herd in a lake and while get
ting range saw a large fish jump re-
peatedly at the tail of a buck. After
bringing down the deer he fixed the
tail IN a hook; it proved the best bait
he ever had used. The bucl, tail fly,
a brown and white tuft Of hair, is a
good bait. though there is no insect
listed hat it could have been copied
from.
But the buck tail and ibis fly are
attractive morsels to human eyes.
compared with the m~onstrosities that
the fish have been invited to bite at
in seasons past. Any se~lf-respecting
FISH getting in early from a little craw-
dad supper of the night before might
not be blamed for mistaking an ibis
or a buck tail for something he had
seen in pairs, or tours, at some other
time. But the fish that strikes at a
"coaxer," or a yellow kid two
freak bats, probably has had domes-
tic troubles.
The Paris of fish bait fashions is
in the east, and it is a notable fact
that none of the frivolous things have
come from prohibition territory. The
inventor of fish lures has a tempera-
ment that is not fostered in dry coun-
tries. Take the ~"coaxer." 1t re-
sembles a miniature rooster in pro-
file. a hunk of white wood Is set off
BY a pert tail of red feathers and two
cute little suggestions OF wings OF red
felt. Natural histories show no
freaks that could have been the in
spiration for this, And the coaxer is
some persuader, anglers will tell you.
From the impressionistic school
comes the "roamer;" the motif of this
is purely allegorical. In your worst
nightmares you may have seen the
roamer family in various colors. The
roamer also is cigar-shaped; it has a
round head with p~rotruding eyes and
n fan tail that is a beauty. Six wrig-
gly red legs-guaranteed to wriggle-
add to the gr~otesqueness and hide the
hooks. The prevailing color Is a mot
tied green with white underneath.
Somehow the roamer makes a strong
appeal to the fish.
And in all this catering to the
vhims Of the haunters of deep pools,
the designers have not forgotten the
tender phase that has a part in the
6sh's existence-the season of senti
ment. For this there is the moonlight
minnows-they even gave 1t a poetic
name. For night fishing this bait
has succeeded, and typifes earthly
owe. Ungainly and of a dead white

PROPER TIME TO CUT GRASS
Haste Makes Waste When Crop Is
Hurried to Barn Not Fully Cured
Thorough Drying Needed.
tRy WALTER LEUTZ.)

AS to the best time for cutting
grass, it does not pay to be in too big
a hurry. When the grass is young
and tender and seemingly s%ucculent
in the fresh state, 1t Is harder to cure,
dries and shrinks more, and has not
nearly the food value Of the more ma
ture crop.
While the opposite extreme should
be avoided, cutting before the seed is
SO ripe as to scatter. there is much
more nourishment In the matured
stalk, and one farmer who was com.
plimented for bringing his cattle
through the winter OF a minimum
amount of grain and yet keeping them
in good flesh, attributes his success
largely to this fact.
Haste makes waste when the crop
Is hurried to the barn not fully cured.
Hay cut green requires more thorough
Trying than that almost overripe.

top of the gate to the barn Is tight
ened, so that the weight Of the gate
at the end where the wire is fastened
will hang upon the wire. The gate will
answer for either of the lanes.
We find this arrangement of lanes
very convenient when turning stock
from one pasture to another.
When the wire support is used to
keep the gate from sagging, one may
use a very long gate-one as long as
Is or 90 feet.

Not races, but roads, was the dictm enunciated by the Prescott Auto club. at special meeting held at the chamber of commerce room last night And, lest it be thought that this is mere airy persiflage, pledges were given by Supervisor Smith on behalf of the Yavapai county board of supervisors under taking to have a good seven-hour auto road finished from Phoenix to Prescott. via Kirkland and the Will iamsOn valley by September 15.
 Jeff Evans of Ash Fork, has as sured Supervisor Smith that the road from Ash Fork to Fl Tovar will be negotiable for autos not later than the twenty-sixth instant.
 This insures the passage of forty ears from New York city, under the direction of A. L. Westgard. in the charge of tours for the American Automobile Association, through the city of Prescott this winter. instead of laying the machines up at Phoe- from Phoenix to the canyon. In other words. it puts Prescott in large red letters on the automobile map of North America.
 And this is only the beginning.
