ABOUT FARM COOKING
REASONS WHY " TOO OFTEN 10
NOT OF THE BEST.
Women Not Given Proper Chance 70
% Good Work-conditions Such
That Wholesome, Nutritious
Meals Are impossible.

We believe that more dyspeptics
are every year produced on the farm
counting equal numbers-than IN
the cities, and this belief is based on
many years Of observation and con.
siderable actual experience.
The reverse would naturally seem
to be true. as the farm cook has a
great advantage over her sister In

ways true
The fact is that the men. who by
the way are the severest critics. are
themselves to blame. They do not
give their wives half chance 10 do
good cooking. On thousands Of pros.
porous farms the housewife never has
sufficient time to do her work well:
she is not provided with the proper
facilities Her kitchen is provided
with nothing more than the barest
necessities and she is deprived Of
such aids as hot and cold water. quick
fuel and an abundance Of cooking
utensils and tableware.
She Is not only the cook but the
handspring of the whole family. She

wives with everything needed In the
kitchen and pantry. They must sup.

children are old enough to assist.
The wife must insist upon having
what she needs to work with and
she must abandon the work of the
dairy. garden and the poultry to the

CONTRACTORS SAY
 GOODBYE ID DAM
Last Load of o'Rourke Machinery Left
 Roosevelt Sunday.

Captain Brooks, who had charge of the executive department of the busi- ness of J. NJ. O'ROurke & Co. contract ors for the Roosevelt dam. arrived in Phoenix yesterday and will be at the Ford hotel for the next two or three weeks. Captain Brooks said yester- day that the work of the contractors lis cleaned up at Roosevelt. but there are few matters of business here about in connection with the opera tions. that it will take a little time to settle up and to those things he will devote his attention.
 Mir. Brooks was the last official rep 'resentative of the contractors to leave Roosevelt. The last of the zoo tons .of machinery used in construction. that was still worth preserving for further usefulness, was loaded on wagons and left Roosevelt Sunday night The ma chinery has all been brought as far as Mesa City or is on the road. Of course there was much machinery used up and discarded, having served it's purpose. but all that is likely t9 be use full in the company's next Undertak- ing is being carefully cared for.

A. E. company had not been rejected All that had been suggested was that the bids be referred to the paving committee for action tonight. The speaker also went somewhat into the legal aspects of the situation and denied that any paving company had gone to great expense in sending representatives here to formulate a bid because of ignorance of the law. They were all well aware of the eX- isting law forbidding the council tO spend any money raised by taxation to pave streets, or, if they neglected to investigate, were mot business men and unfit to lay proper pavement
 Dwight B. Heard of the paving com mittee also denied that either the committee or the council had engaged in any scheme to deceive the paving companies. The owners of property on thirteen blocks had signed agree ments to pavssat a cost not exceed ing $225 Square yard and were anxious to pay the money. If the council could obtain a reasonable bid, private contracts could be made be- tween the paving company and prop erty owners.
 Harry Hand of the Federal Con- struction company, a California con- cern. explained why his company had not submitted a bid after he and an- other representative had made an investigation. The council made a specific call for an indefinite propo- sition.' In other words. it had called for bids on contract it was not in position to make. Mir. Hand asked if the Arizona Bitulithic company had filed with it's bid a license from Warren Bros. of Boston permitting competitive paving on bitulithic pay ing. Such a license must invariably be filed he said. that being a rule of the Warren concern. which charges a royalty for the use of its patented paving methods.
 Mir. Conway of the Barber Asphalt Paving company then told why his company had presented no bid His reasons were practically the same as those of Mir. Hand As soon as the council or the people of Phoenix were ready to make a business proposition his company could bid
 Finally, it was decided to give all the paving men in the city an op- portunity to submit bids to the paw ing committee. To clear the decks Cisley moved that the Bitulithic bids be rejected on the ground that they were above the maximum mentioned in the adver- tisement The motion was carried. The Bitulithic. Federal and Barber said that they would be ready to submit figures to the today. but upon motion of Councilman Stauffer the time was postponed until Wednesday in order to give the Fairchild- Gilmore WilSin of California. which had no present. a chance.
 Nothing was done by the council last evening except to discuss paving and audit the monthly bills.

 Wednesday Evening -
 Fiery Language From 
 Hon. Frank Cox.
ANOTHER CHANCE GIVEN

Frank Cox furnished the fireworks
 and the city council had the liveliest
 meeting of recent months last even
 ing. Mr. Cox represented the Arizona
 Bitulithic company, the only concern that submitted bid iOr the paving
 Of twelve blocks or more of Phoenix streets. IL was when Councilmen Hackett and Cisney stated that the council could let no contract that MT Cox arose and accused the city fath-
 CTS of trifling with business men. The 1 final result of the warm argument in
 which Mir Cox, Harry Hand of the
 Federal Construction company. other paving men and the councilmen took part, was that the bid of the Bitu- lithic company was rejected and an l agreement that other bids would be received by the paving committee and council Wednesday evening.
 i At the request of the citizens pay ' ing committee the council recently advertised for bids for paving twelve blocks of street in the business sec l ton of Phoenix The price was not to exceed $2.25 a square yard. Last night was the time set for the opening of the bids Though there were a dozen paving men pres ent only two bids were presented Both were from the Arizona Bitu- lithic company and they were ac- companied by bond of $10,000. One was an offer to lay paving with concrete base for S225 square yard. S2.36 including eXcavating. The other bid was for S2.10 a yard, with a bituminous base; $2.45 including ex- cavation.
 It was moved that the matter be referred to the paving committed Councilman Hackett and Cisney then explained why the council could not award any paving contract. The property owners themselves must pay for the paving. they said. All the council can do is to recommend some sort of paving.
 It was then that Hon. Frank Cox broke into the game. He stated that he was representing the Arizona Bitu- lithic company in a legaL capacity. The exact nature of Mir. COX's griev- ance was not quite clear but he was pretty warm under the collar First he said that his company had every right to expect when it submitted its bids that there would be other bids and a contract would be let. Then he went on to say that he had told his clients that the council could let no contract. But the council had not acted in business-like way. It had "trifled with business men"

with a finished job behind them, it is only fair to say that the contractors carry with them the congratulations and best wishes or the people of this valley. They have carried out sue cessfully a big undertaking and one for which there was little precedent in so far as local conditions and particular obstacles were concerned. It is not likely they have made a great deal of money. but it is also quite certain that they have made a little: enough so they have no regrets for the time spent and the trouble experienced. for the accomplishment itself is one that will doubtless mean money to them in later enterprises, both for the reputation made and for the engineering lessons learned in the trying schools of experi- enCc.
