WINSL0W WILL Be ON
NATIONAL HIGHWAY

At last the citizens of Northern
Arizona are getting together and
are united on the Good Roads
movement which is extending all
over the northern section of the
state and are mapping out a
route for the National Highway.
The citizens of Flagstaff have
started the movement and a par
ty consisting OF the following
prominent gentlemen of that city
arrived in Wlnslow Sunday af-
ternoon in automobiles to work
up the necessary spirit among
the Winslow citizens TO organize
a local organization to affiliate
with the Flagstaff organization
in regard to this matter: Jesse
Gregg, ex-supervisor; w. IL An
derson, County Supt. of Roads;
ex-Sheriff John Francis and son,
James Lamport, County Survey
or; Casey Jones, Mr.. Mcdonald,
Ray Babbitt, E. {. Slifer, c. B.
Wilson, secretary of the associa-
tion at Flagstaff; L.O, Hart, w.
F. Griffin; supervisor Harry Gray;
Supervisor Richard Baumberg;
M. l. Powers, Pres of the asso-
ciat1on; John and Leo Verkamp;
c. B. Wilcox, JOS. Dent, John Sa-
yer, Vim. Miller, John Lind, and
VIM. Babbitt.
The meeting was held Sunday
evening at the Elks' Hall, being
attended by many citizens and
various ways and means were
discussed as to the best way to
proceed in getting the National
Highway thru this particular
section of the country, and it
goes without saying that with
the men in back of the movement
it will meet with success. 1t is
the intention of the men at the
meeting to get the people of the
three northern counties together
on the subject and all pull the
same way so that the main road
will come this way, and if not,
build a sort of branch route

Already the graduates to be are
discussing gowns and possible

exercises will be arranged. There
will be twelve or more gradu-

SHALL The UNIVER-
SITY OF ARIZONA Be
DISMEMBERED?

Within the last month or S
many OF the newspapers of the
State have had numerous articles
IN their columns regarding the
separation of the agricultural
college from the University of
Arizona at Tucson, where it has
been located for years and doing
very creditable work.
1t seems that the people of
Phoenix and Tempe are the ones
most interested to have the
same dismembered and it is their
intention to establish the Ayr
cultural school somewhere in
the Salt River Valley in the vici.
nifty of Tempe.
1t seems from the information
that we have from the people
who know what they are talk
ing about regarding this matter,
and from the information that
we have on the same subject,
that it would be a needless ex-
pense; not only that, but in place
of having one good University,
such as we have now at Tucson,
which ranks high among its class
with Universities ofolder States,
we would have two, but inferior
ones in many respects and by no
means satisfactory.
1t is question which the next
Legislature will have to settle
and hope that these men will
take the proper view Of the. mat
ter and leave the same at its
present location mt Tacsoa4 At
least we hope that the two gentle
ne-i of Navajo county will DO
all in their power in that respect.
In booklet recently published
by the University of Tucson we
have an Illustration of the dup'i-
Gated studies that would be ne
ceSsary for two seperate institu.
tiOns, namely a University anl
agricultural Course, necesSitat-
ing an extra corps OF high sala-
ried instructors and lots of nee.-
less expense to the State and at
that. as aforesaid said, with not
near as good results as we are
obtaining at the present Univer-
SHY at Tucson
Mr.. A. M. McOmie, one Of the
instructors at the University
was a visitor in Winslow this
week on his way to various
towns in Navajo county where
he will give lectures on agricul.
ture in the different towns from
the various experiments at the
College, which given direct anil
autentic, is a great deal of help
to various sections and farming
communities in our state.
Aside from that, the state /,
and has been establishing expe-
rlment stations along these lines
IN various sections of the state
which are maintained at the ex-
pense of the state, knowing that
no agricultural college located
in any one particular section IN
our state could take the place of
these experiment stations as the
climate and conditions are so
different, consequently these
stations in various sections un-
der the supervision OF the Tue,
son University in order to obtain
the best results for the partlcu.
lar localities.
At present there are stations
OF that kind at Prescott, Yuma,
Sulphur Springs and Snowflake,
and in a short time there will be
another located At Flagstaff.
The largest of these stations is
located near Phoenix and Terl-
pc SO we see no good reason
why the state should go loextra

BIG BASEBALL
GAME MARCH II
Winslow Cardinals VS.. Santa
Fe Shops, St. Patrick's Day

"Play Ball.; those two words
are the most inspiring in the
United Stateslanguage as Spring,
robbins and Circus Day time
roll around, and to start the
baseball season on St. Patrick's
Day, what combination OF
events. Everybody in the broad
land of ours loves a Ball Game,
a clean manly and exciting sport.
Last spring in Washington, Pres
ident Taft pitched the first ball
to officially open the season.
Here in Winslow, Mayor Bur
bage will toss the first ball which
will declare the ball season and
this first interesting game open.
The two greatest amusement
organizations in any city is a
Brass Band and a Bali Club. We
have them both now. Tie Band
has proven what they can do
and it will be up to Winslow's
two ball clubs to see what they
can do and which can win the
first game OF the season. Each
team is cut to win and both are
practicing daily, and the lineup
OF the teams seems to be about
evenly balanced in ball talent.
AS for the Cardinals everyone
knows what they can do as they
have represented Winslow's col
ors for the past FIVE yerr's with
little change of players. With a
a little strengthening oftne team
plenty of practice games and
support from the citizens, they
will be Make Good" team
The Santa Fe Shop Team is
new organization, but from the
lineup and the batting averages
of the team on file in the Santa
Fe Sporting Book it looks as
though Winslqw would win the
penant IN the newly organized
Santa Fe Mechanical Dept
Base Ball League" with clubs at
Fresno, Bakersfield, San Bernar-
dino, Los Angles, Needles and
Winslow.
The pitcher of the shops, Kim
mel, has a collection of curves
from the fade a. way and rainbow
to the cork screw, and he islook-
ed to pitch shut out game. Joe
Daze, the Cardinals mound ar
tist, has improved with his
Canon Ball Snakes" until it is
rumored that Connie Mack of
the Philadelphia Worlds Champ
ions will have a scout at the
game to watch out this coming
big Lacquer. Dick Duggar the Car
dinals manager will be on the
job and that means fight for
the victory until the third man
is out in the ninth inning.
The boys band has sjoined hands
for the season with both ball
clubs in the roll of boosters and
crowd producers and during the
games will keep the crowd hap
py and the players on edge by
playing popular and inspiring
music.
This a double holiday and
there being no place in the world
where St. Patrick has such good
time as at a Ball Game and he
will be there in full force, with
cClors and fun, evident evey-
where.
A monster street parade has
been formed for the occasion
after a Band Concert in the
Plaza. The parade will form in
the following order and march
to the park:
Marshall of the day: Chief of
Police Bledsoe.
Automobile, containing Mayor
Burbage, members of the City
Council. Superintendent Gibson

CHESTNUT BARK DISEASE.

tsrs Only Known Means of Control.
The chestnut bark disease was first
recognized as a serious disease in the
vicinity Of New York city in 1904, and
the first publication regarding it APP
peared in 1906. There is reliable evil
dence, however, that it was present on
Long Island at least as early as 1898.
It's origin Is unknown, but there Is
some evidence that it was imported
from the orient with the Japanese
chestnut. This view is not, however,
held by all Investigators. But. what
ever may have been its time or place
Of origin, it is certain that It has now
spread into at least ten states.
The bark disease appears ultimately
to exterminate the chestnut trees in
any locality which it infests. Three
years ago the financial loss from this
disease lin and about New York city
was estimated at between $5,000,000
and $1O,0OO.0 0O." The agricultural de-
partment writer's regard go 100000 as
a conservative estimate Of the financial
loss from this disease up to 1911. In
many localities the greatest damage
has been among chcstnuts grown for

mometer may stand a little lower in
the latter than in the former on a
very cold morning, but the pure air
or the ventilated barn, the lack of
moisture, the passing off of the foul
air from which the oxygen has been
consumed by the lungs of the COWS,
will make the barns so much more
comfortable that the person entering
would immediately declare that the
ventilated stable was several degrees
warmer than the unventilated. The
barn that IS sealed up so that no air
can pass out and no fresh air can
come in is loaded down with Inflated
air, which is really a poisonous gas.
Is it any wonder that the cows kept
in such sitting quarters are unproita-
BILE? Why deprive them OF life giving
fresh air that is free and may be had
as a result Of a little work and prac-
tically no other expense. Every man
who keeps dairy cattle should equip
his stable with systems of ventilation
that will take off the impure air lea
the floor and let the fresh air in near
the ceiling. In order to avoid drafts
the fresh air intake pm the outside of
the barn is down near the sill, while
the outlet for the impure air is up
near the ceiling. Thus there is a COM
plete passage and a circulation in the
barn through the ventilating shafts
that insures abundance Of pure, life
giving oxygen all the time.

Orange Judd Farmer. There is Ilt,,p
trouble in keeping them in good condi.
ton during the winter. ] neve. have
had trouble of any kind The cheapest
feeds are oats and fax straw and ma
tive hay with oats as u grain. Every
barn should have good ventilation and
plenty Of light. | always turn all
horses out during the day. In the win
ter. they find protection around the big
strawstacks. This is sufficient TO keep
them In good condition no matter how
cold it is. They are always turned
into the lot no matter if the tempera-
ture drops 10 thirty degrees below zero.
providing, of course, it is not storming.
Dry cold is not injurious, and it is only
when horses get wet that harm re
suits.
Attention should be given TO the fit
ting of harness to colts when beginning
to work. 1t is Of great importance that
collars should fit snuGly. and it is well
to see that the shoulders are not
bruised. When first beginning work in
the spring the work should be light
until the team is hardened. During the
first day the distance Of ten miles tray.
cling is sufficient. This may he in.
creased TO twelve to eighteen miles as
soon as the team gets into condition.
Sucking colts should be very we'll
taken care Of. The stables should be
tight so that no wind gets IN through
cracks. Light should he admitted
through windows. The sucking colts
should be kept by themselves during
the winter, as the others usually crowd
them out of shelter. Colts require
more warmth or shelter than work
horses or brood mares. When they set
wet 1t is quite serious.

Honey Bread.

In Europe where the food value of
honey seems to be much better under
stood than In the United States, enor,
nous quantities are used. OF late years
we seem to be waking to a realization
Of the value Of honey as a wholesome
and delicious article Of food, and also
as to its pr~eservative qualities. Cakes
and sweet breads made with sugar
soon become dry and crumbly, and to
get the good Of them must be eaten
when fresh; but where they are made
up with honey they seem to retain
their moist freshness indefinitely. In
France honey bread a year or eighteen
