when they passed a re-
solution requesting the abroga
ton of the order providing for a
non-work day on Sunday.
This regulation was never po-
pular in Arizona. 1t has caused
great inconvenience to all patrons
of the postoffice, delayed business
and clogged work in the post
offices.
The country has come to de-
pend so much on the prompt de-
livery of the mails and our bust
ness affairs are so intricate that
a delay in the delivery of the
mails for day in each week is not
only inconvenient but often
times disastrous to business. The
sooner the old order is restored
the better. Tucson Citizen.

Extremely Important"

The liquor interests are circu-
lating a petition which reads:
Extremely Important" and it
says that: "On December 16.
next, there will come up in the
United States Senate at Wash
ington, bill known as the ga
mended Kenyon Bill" They
are asking for signatures to the
following letter;
Honorable, Washington,
Dear Sir:
There is now pending in the
Senate a bill known as the A
mended Kenyon BILL which
seeks to interfere with interstate
shipments of liquor. This bill is
antagonistic to the personal lib
erty of the people at large, and l
hope you will use your influence
to prevent its passage. l feel
sure that such action, on your
part, will meet with the appro-
val of a large majority of your
constituents.

PLANT QUARANTINE
MEASURES ADOPTED

At a meeting of the Arizona
Commission of Agriculture and
Horticulture held in Phoenix on
Oct. 31st and Nov. LIST, three
quarantine orders were adopted
by the Arizona Commission of
Agriculture and Horticulture.
Quarantine order No. 4 pro-
hibits the importation into Ari-
iona of cotton seed from states
in which the cotton boil weevil
exists. At the present time cot
ton seed can be imported
from Virginia, North and South
Carolina, Georgia and California,
these states being free from the
boil weevil so far as known.
Quarantine Order No. 5 re-
lates to the gray phylloxera
which has destroyed many vine
yards in northern California.
This order prohibits the impor-
tation into the state of Arizona
of all rooted grape-vines from
California north of the north line
of San Bernardino, Kerr and San
Luis Obispo counties. Grape cut
tings may be released by Arizo-
ma Crop Pest Inspectors only af-
ter treatment by means of hot
water to destroy the winter eggs
of the phylloxers, should any be
present.
Quarantine order No. 6 relates
to the California red and yellow
citrus scale insects, A previous
quarantine order (No. q rela-
ting to white flies prohibits the
importation of all citrus stock
from Florida and other gulf
states. This latest order (No. g.
places the same prohibition on
all seed-bed and budded citrus
stock from California except only
that from Tulare and Fresno
counties.
Before adopting the foregoing
quarantine measures the Com
mission gave thorough consider
alton to many letters from the
authorities in other states re-
garding the distribution of the
pests concerned and the danger
of their transportation to Ari-
iona. In regard to the citrus
order the following
facts were given especial con-
sideration before the measure
was adopted:
1st. The red and yellow cit
rus scales are known to thrive |

The ELY CROP.

While it Is impossible to forecast the
weather or tell just how large the diff
ferent crops will be, there need be no
guesswOrk on the question Of flies. 1t
is safe to take it for granted that there
will be the usual number Of the dirty
pests. 1t is true there are not as many
Of them about right now as there will
be In eight weeks. but it is none too
early to begin waging vigorous cam
paign against them. The fight against
them should be waged along two gen.
eral lines-first, reducing their breed
ing places to q minimum, and. next, to
destroy them with traps and poison as
soon as they put in an appearance.
The several prepared fly dopes are ex-
cellent. but care should be taken to see
that they are kept out of the reach OF
little children Another dope that Is
not harmful to the human is made by
adding a couple of tablespoonfuls OF
formalin to pint of water and placing
this in shallow dishes where the flies
gather A little sugar and few drops
of vinegar will serve to increase its
drawing power. The most effective
trap is made by inserting a cone made
of wire screen with a small hole in
the tip in the bottom Of a barrel or
smaller receptacle with wire sides.
made fly tight. This should be put
where the flies gather, raised three or
four inches on supports and a dish Of
some sweet stuff placed beneath to
more effectively draw the flies. They
will creep up this cone into the trap.
and the more flies there are trapped
the more will want to get into it

PRESERVING EGGS.

Now that the season Of cheaper
eggs is at hand there may be some
readers who will want to preserve
some for fall and winter use. One Of
the best methods Of good many that
have been tried is by the use Of the
water glass solution. or sodium silicate.
This chemical costs about 30 cents a
quart and can be got at most any drug
store This should be thoroughly mix
ed with water that has been boiled and
cooled at the rate of quart Of the wa
ter glass to nine quarts of water. The
best receptacle to use is an earthen-
ware vessel. which should be scalded
out before being used. Only clean,
fresh and uncracked eggs should be
put down. The jar containing the
eggs should be put in a cool place
and covered with sacking or a board
cover to prevent evaporation Of the
solution. Experience shows that eggs
laid in April and May will keep longer
than those secured in other months.

STATE COURT
THE TRIBUNAL

In the United States district
court last week, Judge Sloan
handed down an important opin-
ion in two cases brought against
the Santa Fe railroad in Navajo
county and which the railroad
company sought to remove to the
Federal Court.
The qestion involved wa S
whether the plaintiff in an ac-
ton for damages could find an
amended complaint reducing the
amount prayed for below $4,000
so as to defeat the jurisdiction of
the federal court between the re-
ceipts of notice and time filing of
a petition and bond for removal.
The cases decided were brought
by Ollie Glaze and Thomas Votoe
against the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe railroad. On July 9th
the defendant served the plain
tiff with a notice of its intention
to remove the cases to the fed.
eral court. On July 10th the
plaintiffs filed amended COM
plants reducing their claims to
less than $4,000, the amount re-
quired to give the federal court
jurisdiction. On July the 18th
the defendant filed petitions and
bonds for removal in each case.
In a written opinion, Judge
Sloan holds that the notice of re-
moval provided for in Section 20
of the judicial code did not divest
the state court of jurisdiction
and that the right of removals.

petition and bond is filed and not

SINGLE MEN
GO INSANE

Insanity seizes upon the bach
elor with greater ease than upon
the benedict, despite the worry
the latter is supposed to under
go, according to the report of the
government hospital for the in-
sane. Another fact brought out
by the report is that out of near
ly three thousand patients in the
Institution at Washington, only
three are being treated for in
sanity brought on by the use of
alcohol; this is contrary to the
generally accepted theory which
attributes to alcoholism a large
proportion of the unfortunates.
A significant feature of the re-
port lies in the statement that
there are a far greater proper
ton of foreign insane patients
than American, and that of the
foreigners the majority are Ger
mans. That insanity, in a large
measure, is hereditary is evil
denced by the statement that the
asylum scientists have discovered
one family in West Virginia
whose pedigree has been traced
back through CTS individuals, of
whom fifty-four were mentally
defective.

BEST ROADS IN THE WORLD.
The Splendid System In France That
Has Brought This About.

Has Brought TINS About
In France. where they have the best
roads of any country in the world. the
highways are divided into several
classes. but all of them are supervised
by the national government. which
maintains a bureau Of roads and
bridges and supports a school for the
education of the engineers and inspect
Ors who are employed in the bureau.
This method of building and main
tanning roads in France was started by
the first Napoleon, who appears to
have been the earliest European states
man who clearly saw the economic ad-
vantage of proper highways and who
at the same time had the power to car
~ out what he wished. The effect of
these good roads in France has been
wonderful. They have brought all of
the various parts of the country nearer
together. they have made country life
less lonesome. and they have reduced
the cost of transportation Of country
produce to a minimum. France is the
only country in Europe where the agri-
cultural classes are not dissatisfied
and where they do not feel that they
have a harder time than those who la
Dor in other fields.

nix and exterminated, the de-

described in the recently issued
Fourth Annual Report of the
Horticultural Commission.
End. The red and yellow
scales are generally distributed
throughout the citrus growing
sections of Southern California
according to a publication by the
California Experiment Station
and other reliable sources.
3rd. Few, if any. nurseries
in Southern California are con-
sidered both free from the red
and yellow scales and reasonably
protected by isolation from or
chards infested by these pests.
When not so protected inspec-
lions are of comparatively little
value in point of safety as con-
corning the Arizona citrus in
dustry.
18th. it would be impracticable
to attempt to determine which,
if any, nurseries in generally in
tested counties might be safely
excluded from quarantine
9Th. Both seed-bed and bud
ded citrus stock can be obtained
in Tulare and Fresno counties,
California, which are excepted
from the quarantine, without
the danger Of introducing the
red and yellow scales into this
state.
9Th. There will be about 81
600 budded citrus trees in the
nurseries of the Salt River Val
ley available for next springs
planting. This is fully twice as
much as has been planted in Ar
iona during any one of the past
three years and will presumably
meet the home demands.
, 7th. Practically all of the
homegrown citrus stock is being
offered for sale at the same
prices as charged for equivalent
grades of California stock.
