ANOTHER BIG
APPROPRIATION

Owing to the activity and
efforts of Senator Mark Smith
the State of Arizona will have
an additional 100000 added
to it's appropriation for the pur,
pose of making surveys and re-
surveys of public lands in this
state.
During the recent discussion of
the sundry civil appropriation
bill in the Senate, Senator Smith
offered an amendment providing
for an appropriation additional
to all Others of 100000 to be
used exclusively in the state OF
Arizona for the purpose of sur
veying public lands. Mr. Smiths
amendment was accepted and
Arizona will receive the benefit.
During the discussion of the
matter Senator Smith made the
following remarks, which are
taken from the Congressional
Record of last Saturday.
Mr.. President. | regret that
this appropriation is as small as
it is A condition has existed in
the Territorial governments of
New Mexico and Arizona that
ought to be called to the atten
tion of the Senate. We have
something like fifty odd million
acres of unsurveyed land there.
We have suffered as to these sur
veys, having no representation
on this floor. Some Of the states
which were fortunately situated
not only in being represented
with remarkable ability and
with remarkable industry, have
had nearly all their lands sur
veyed. The Statistical Abstract
and the commissioners report
differ so widely that it seems to
me that | cannot ascertain from
what data | can get within a
million acres OF the amount of
the surveys in my state. That
may be my fault, and | am not
complaining Of the department
or OF whosoever compiled the
Statistical Abstract, but what |
state is true. | therefore appeal
to the Senate for relief inasmuch
as the grants of land that we
have received as a new state are
SO largely unsurveyed, and mas
much AZ per cent of the grea.
State of Arizona is now held in
reservations taking, in my judg
ment, 80 per cent of the avail
able lands of that state, so that
we are relegated to the desert.
Nobody will settle on unsur.
sveyed land today. They will go,
as they are going, to Canada
They will go where there is less
friction and more freedom. What
is the result? No man will go on
that unsurveyed 57,OOO,0OO ac
res of land. if mistake not the
figures. and take the risk that
the location may fall on some
unsurVeyed reserve or within one
Of the school sections. So the
matter stands without a dollar
of appropriation directly for it.
In the case of Wyoming and Ida
no they had special appropria-
tions OF 100000 or some SINH
lar amount in addition to the
general appropriation, which
was very proper, but the same
consideration ought to have
been extended to the other states.
/ appeal to the Senate not that
this should stand at all, but
should like an amendment of at
least $4,000 directly appropri-
ated to Arizona, as was the case
in reference to Wyoming and
Idaho"

GUINEA MEAT IS DELICIOUS
When Matured Bird Cannot Be TX

Roast or Pie

You have heard Of guinea fowl. but
did you ever taste one? If you like
the delicious flavor Of wild game. es-
pecially the prairie chicken. you are
sure to enjoy a meal of guinea fowl.
When young. the guinea is more
tender and more Juicy than the prairie
chicken. and is far superior to any
other bird as q broiler Oh a fry.
When matured they cannot be excelled
by any chicken for a pot roast or pie.
Their flesh Is rather dark. but fine
grained and very tender. with an eK-
Quisite gamey flavor. The eggs. while
rather small, have a rich taste that
most persons like. There IL an ever
increasing demand for guineas In the
larger cities for restaurant trade.
There's profit in raising them.
Guineas are not SO serviceable az
hens when raised in close confinement,
but II allowed the run of the farm they
will practically raise themselves, with
hardly any expense to their owners,
and will return a profit in both eggs
and meat The guinea is naturally q

cas- and half turkeys, when given to
the brood hen. the guineas will remain
with the other birds and will not be
nearly so wild as when kept alone.
The feed for young guineas may be
the same as for young turkeys. After
three weeks they may be put on free
range, feeding three times a day, with
plenty Of fresh water. They do not
scratch like other fowls, and therefore
are safe to have in the garden.

POUITPYNOTES

Watch the hens for superluous fat.
The poultry business Is not all
profits.
Be generous with fresh air and wa.
Ger and sunshine.
Lettuce Is particularly we'll liked
by chicks because of its tenderness.
1t Is easier to keep the hens quar-
tiers clean than 1t Is to fight disease.
II cabbage is fed in too large guam
titles the eggs may partake of its
flavor.
Don't put off buying your breeding
stock for the poultry yard till next
spring.
Green food is one of the essentials
for healthy fowls and for satisfactory
egg production.
Have the hen yard border on the
garden, so that the vegetables can be
easily transferred.
The fact Of the business Is, the
average farm flock produces about 12O
eggs per hen each year.
The problem Of getting green food
for poultry in the winter Is much
HOro pressing IMAM IN summer.
Once a month paint the roosts with
coal oil, using a broad paint brush
and pour a little into any cracks
about the ends of perches.
Provide plenty Of dry earth and
coal ashes where the hens may dust
themselves, and there is little danger
Of body lice in q clean house.
The busy hen In the scratching shed
is the one that drops the eggs In
your market basket during the win
ter months when eggs are highest.
Place a shallow pan with a little
kerosene in it where the hens have
to walk through It in entering theil

Winter Feed for Poultry.

One Of the best and most relished
winter feeds for poultry is cabbage.
Even though there be an abundance
Of other green vegetable matter, I
should still strive to add some cab
bage to the list. It is true ths< there
is nothing quite SO good for ths hens
as a growing crop, such as rye, over
which they can range and thus com.
bine exercise with food getting. and
every effort should be made to provide
It, but often space is too limited for
such crops and dependence must be
had altogether on substitutes that can

ers-the pullets often laying when FIVE
months old. They stand confinement
well in winter. Owing to their great
activity, they are not 30 likely to
have indigestion and bowel troubles as
the larger breeds. AS the Leghorns
are not so heavily feathered, they are
more easily kept free from lice.
Now that we can hatch and raise

is 1t not the proper thing to have the
''egg machines" or the laying breeds,
also?
There are some noted strains Of
Plymouth Rocks and White Wyan-
dottes that are heavy layers-strains
built up by patient and painstaking
work in selection and breeding from
the best layers, so hat they lay al
most or quite as well as the leghorns.
The farmer has not the time to trap
nest his hens and to secure his best
layers. And what Is the need of 1t,
when 1t is just as natural for the Leg.

Harder to Elope
Under New Law

Several revisions in the amendment
to the marriage law, which has just
been signed by Governor Wilson, seem
have as their object the curtailment Of
the number of elopements and hasty
marriages.
One change in particular, which pro-
vides that a license issued today can
not be used for at least twenty-four
hours, seems to have a direct bearing
on the case. Henceforth couples intend
ing to elope will have to figure on at
least one days start on their parents,
or they will run into all kinds of
trouble before they can be married.
Another change, which is approved
by the marriage license bureau, is that
which sets a limit of thirty days on
the time in which a license can be
used after it is issued. This will pre-
vent the recurrence of two cases which
came up recently, when parties were
married on licenses bearing dates of a
year or more previous to the date of
the wedding. One couple, married in
the City Clerks office last month, had
a license bearing the date of August,
1910.
The amendment also provides hat in
the case where the contracting parties
desire both a civil and religious cere-
mony the bureau shall issue separate
licenses or certificates for each cere-
mony. Except for these changes, the
marriage law remains unchanged.
