TEACHING CHICKENS
 TO FEED RIGHT
The New Arizona Way, Based Upon Peculiar Anatomy of Their Brain.

The Globe Silver Belt says that the doings of J. B. Nelson, which were recently chronicled by the Phoenix papers, or some of them. were not a comparison to the doings of L Watt Hogue of Globe, who after reading an account of Nelson's stunts. which to Phoenicians seem wonderful, said there was nothing new in that state ment and that chickens did not have to be taught anything in that line if man keeps the right breed NIT. Hogue claims there are breeds of chickens whose cerebrum and cerebcl- lum are grown together, that they are sufferers from hydrocephalism and that they might have to be taught to come out to eat, but with the kind he raises, white Lcghorns. no teaching whatever is required. MT. Hogue said that when the moon was last full he was awakened one night by the chuck ing of his chickens, and looking out of the window saw them all in the yard eating cockroachcs He said th-. same thing occurred nightly unt:I the moon waned. He said that fnr about two weeks the chickens did not come 2 their usual nightly luncheon began to grow thin and nervous, several dying, which fact caused him a great amount [ of worry for fear he would lose them all. MT. Hogue read booklets of all kinds of diseases of chickens, tried all sorts of medicines which they recom- mended. All his investigation and ex- perimcntatiOn was tO no purpose: they continued to grow thin and die, and. in fact. became SO highly nervous that they could not pick up Cobbe- stones without dropping them from their bills. MT. HoGue after spending much time and money, on various treatments. hit upon scheme wHiCn has proven highly successful. and no more chicken invalids are tu be found in the Hogue hcnnery. MT Hoguc each night at the silent hour of mid night, softly steals from his doWny couch, makes a noise like the moon coming up, lights his lanorn. hangs it on a clothesline. All tha chickens begin to chuck, come out and gather under the light of the lantern and partake of the succulent grasShop- per, cricket and cockroach drawn by the rays of the light

FORMED NUCLEUS
 OF A COLLISION
The Avowed Purposes a Partition Of
 the Offices.

Before the ink on the statehood res iolution had got dry. a conspiracy began to be formed in Phoenix. whose pur- pose, as has been boldly announced, is to fill every office in Arizona witk a democrat" That is a rather loose way of stating that the purpose is to put a democrat into every office in Ari- zona, not necessarily to fill the offices; in some cases they will probably rat tie around in the offices.
 Another view of the object of the conspiracy is that it is to put every democrat in Arizona into an office. Those who are said to be in collision are J. H. LanGston, II. A. Davis, Sid ney Osborn, John NJ. Phy, J. l.. Irwin and A D. Leyhe. There are some Oth- CTS. but not many. for one thing to be guarded against is the collection of more members than there are offices.
 There are already too many demo- crats and it is presumed that one of the objects of this movement is to get rid of some of them, especially those who allied themselves with the party during the constitutional conven- ton campaign. IL is to he gently hint cd to them that now that the burden and heat of the day has been borne, they might as well retire Allies are all right up to the time for the be ginning of the division of the spells, when a well known arithmetical truism painfully Obtrudes itself-the greater the divisor. the smaller the Quotient Now that there is nothing holding the republicans who crossed the suit last fall they may realign themselves with their party
 The name of this conspiracy is the Maricopa Democratic Club. which cuts out for itself a task not easy of ac- Complishment. "to provide a place and means of harmonious cooperation" The place may not be hard to find, but the means is a quite different thing and no doubt the harmony that will be cngendered by the democrats of this county. say a month or two hence. will be worth going miles to see

The board of trade has received a letter from D. K. B. Sellers. of AIbu- querque. president of the New Mexico Automobile association. saying
 'I am in receipt today of a letter from Mr. Harry Drum, chairman of the touring committee of the Trans continental Touring club. saying the club has decided to send him across the country, and that he expects to leave Chicago, about September 10, ar irving at Albuquerque about the last of the month. and Phoenix about the middle of october. as they intend to do considerable boosting long the road in the way of interesting good roads committees. and others. about road signing. repairing. etc. MT Drum will come with letters from leading con gressmen. department of agriculture.

 The letter stated that the cities and towns along the three routes are try ing to have congress specify one defi- mite route and aid in putting it in good condition for travel and suggested that Phoenix do all it can in favor of the Trail of the Sunset" as Mir Westgard named the southwestern route. The American Automobile association. with headquarters in New York. and the Transcontinental Touring Club of Am erica. with headquarters in Chicago, are boosting for the southwestern route, says MT.

 As MT. Drum comes in the interest of the latter, he will doubtless receive the warmest kind of welcome when he reaches Phoenix, not only by the good roads and automobile interests,

market with the EXCLUSIVE argu- ment. We will endow every man with fastidious taste"
 His advertising therefore came to impress one as being directed to the person who could roll about town Ill motor cars and, when the weather be- came warm, depart for the cool lodge in the mountains His newspaper ads were elegantly designed. One of the most effective of them represented man wearing the trade-marked shirt, at the steering wheel of a motor boat. He appeared to be man who could well afford to indulge his tastes for the very best of everything.
 But the proof that, after all, this advertising was aimed at the person of ordinary means was the fact that it was all placed in periodicals and in places that were seen by the masses. " The publicity took advantage of the very human trait which wants some thing a little bit different from the article in use by the multitude"
 It is reported Chat this campaign is scoring a heavy success. The apparel so exclusively" advertised, has, it is said, come into vogue not only among the so-called "good dressers,' but also among those people who ike to impress their associates with their discrimination.

 in a class by itself. is the clever run of comedy, the finished dancing and
