A Remedy For Reaches.

The old idea Of sprinkling borax
about to kill reaches is often used,
but with meager success. by the house
wife whose kitchen is overrun by
reaches.
The main point to consider Is the rule
Of absolute cleanliness. An expert
enced housekeeper is quoted as say
ing that only by diligent fighting Of
the pesky things from one years end
to the other can they be eradicated.
No corner or crevice must be over
looked and, even though the varmints
seem to have disappeared. vigilance
must not be relaxed. Rag carpets
which become saturated with grease
are vermin breeders and will almost
Invariably cause trouble"
A we'll known librarian, who found
that his books were coming apart be-
cause of the inroads Of reaches. which
fed upon the paste or glue, amused
company of friends by telling how he
got rid Of the insects. He made paste
of -four and plaster Of paris. placing 1t
in q small bowl in the library, and not
far away he put another bowl full OF
water. The reaches fed upon this de-
lectable dish with avidlty. which ere
ated an intense thirst. The water near
1t was eagerly drunk. and plaster
cast formed inside their bodies, which
naturally hardened and caused them to
die.
In this way the bindings of the books
were saved, however strange may seem
the means of their salvation.

BOARD OF TRADE TO PUT
 ON s5OO0 RACE AT FAIR
Will Support Valley Sweepstakes Event
 for Speedy Colts.

A Salt River Valley s5.000 stake race for the ponies at the next Arizona State Fair is the startling and sporty intelli- gence that emanated yesterday from the secret chambers of the Phoenix Board of Trade The board of direct ors discussed the situation and decid- ed to make a regular guarantee that it would raise the prize money for the event providing some suitable name could be selected that would advertise the fair and the valley.
 In preparation of the race commit tee was named to select catchy title andito arrange all the deatils with the fair committee. The other stake races in the annual horse racing program at the Phoenix state fair have proved im- msnsely uccessful-witness the bring ing here last year of such animals as Joe Patchen II and others of aristo- cratic equine blood. It is predicted that tine Salt River valley stake will outshine all others as an advertisement Of what can be found at the Arizona state fair and for that reason the board is anxious to push the plan to Completion.

Above is the list of the committee of one hundred workers for the financial and membership increases in the Phoe
 nix Board of Trade. In the weeks just ahead there is lot of work to be
 turned out in preparation for the end
 of the present fiscal year The com
 mittee of which Dr. John Dennett is the able head will shoulder a great deal of
 the labor of raising funds and stim-
 ulating interest in the board and it's
 work
 The annual dinner will be the time
 for making a great number of import
 ant reports. At last evenings meeting
 of the board of governors the vOlum- inous report of the committee on a
 national park for Arizona was submit ted and after transmission to the gen |eral membership will be sent on to Washington.
 H. B. Wilkinson and B. F. Marks will debate the subject of changing the name of the Salt River and the valley. Some maintain that the name ought to be more in keeping with what the river really signifies and that the name of the great irrigated belt ought not be Salt River Valley" but something significant of the wonderful climate, soil and opportunity that are here. Sun River has been suggested for the stream.
 The committee on the experimental l farm for the valley reported progress and advised support for the plan of se- | curing an expert farm management man from some we'll known agricultur- al college.

POLICE CHASE WILD MAN

POLICE CHASE WILD MAN - When Policeman Williams responded to a call yesterday afternoon from residents of the east part of town, who stated that wild man was ter rorizing that section, he did not take long in locating the man. But he took more time in bringing about the mans arrest. As soon as the officer hove in sight, he found the man armed with big rock and ready to throw it. Not wishing to use his gun. Williams sent for help, and Chief Moore and Policeman Behny re- sponded. In the meantime the man had disappeared. A chase then en- sued which took the officers over about a dozen streets of the east part of town. ending in little house on East Cleveland street There the man was found and taken to the po- lice station. He gave the name of Ramon Alvarez, and said that he guessed there was nothing the matter with him except that he had a few too many drinks aboard.

MORE REPRESENTATION
 FOR WASHINGTON MEET
Movement Said to Be Foot to Send Captain Christy to Meet
 Secretary Lane.

Indications are strong that the Salt River project and associated ir- rlgation districts will be weln repre- sented before Secretary Franklin K. Lanes conference between members Of water users associations and of 1icials Of the reclamation service, for with the call last night for spe- Cial meeting of the council of the <. R. V. Water Users Association it became almost certain that an at tempt will be made to send Captain George D. Christy, legal adviser of the association. to Washington. This is an Independent movement. for President John r Orme left last night armed with the recommends = tons of the board of governors. passed and accredited at Wednes- days special meeting. A motion be- fore the board favoring sending Christy was lost on a viva voce vote.
 Saturday at 30 is the time for the special session of the council called last night by Chairman Dan r Jones The call does not specify that the matter of sending Christy to Washington as a representative of the association will come up tha only business before the meeting, but from conversation with several mem bers of the body such is thought to be the case It was argued before the board that the conference with the secretary of the interior Is not one demanding q legal mind to fol- tow the deliberations. Acting on this knowledge the board appointed Mir. Orme as representative and armed him with a set of strong recOmmen- dations. which were printed in full ii4 The Arizona Republican of yester- day.

LOEB COMPOUNDS COURT
 BUT PAYS FOR HIS SPEED
This Tale Shows Newspapermen Must do all Things and be all Things
 in Their lurid Careers.

Demonstrating that to be news paper man, one must know just a little more than anybody else in the world on any stated subject, Alphabetical Loeb, late of the Arizona Democrat and still later of the Tucson Star the other day cOnfounded the officers of the law over in the old Pueblo and laid a path for evaSions galore of the regulations cities make in regard to the speed with which motor cars may be run within the corporation limits. Loeb drives a sort of a car. He has been known to make that car do things that no self respecting car would do. Witness his attempt to ride up the front steps of d Tucson residence. The car had had nothing but straight gasoline and MT. MT. Loeb pure H2 O.
 When he presented himself in police court to answer to the charge of over speeding, Loeb turned his fine Italian hand to the task of showing the law right where it stood, thereby demon strating all the things listed above. He Was-according to reports in the Tue son press-particularfy successful in springing the law on the law enforcers and from the generous fund of the in- formation he had picked up in the course of his short but brilliant career as a special writer on the staff of the Star he dragged forth facts enough to make said police court look like kindergarten. From all that can be which Loeb stoutly assets he did not NT 1T h1 lnt tl,n same.
 The following from the Stars report shows how Loebsy put Ter over:
 l. J. $. Loeb, newspaper man, fined s10 in police court Monday afternoon on a charge of automobile speeding gave notice of appeal. He is one of the liveliest fish that the police have hooked and made the simple Are you guilty or not guilty? $l0 or days" pro- cedure of the police court look like kindergarten plays.
 Loeb denied that he was exceeding 10 miles an hour Sunday night when arrested by Patrolman Jack Anderson on the new motorcycle, He wanted to know all sorts of things.
 He wanted to know if Anderson who has ridden the machine only four days, could run it at IS miles an hour flash his electric light on the speedo- meter and read it. He wanted to know why he, Loeb, was going Is miles an hour and Anderson IS miles an hour when Anderson must have made better time than that in order to catch up
 He objected to the legality of the arrest on the ground that AnderSon'S s appointment has not been confirmed by the city council. He asserted that Anderson, not being an officer. had himself violated the speed law and other regulations.

We employ a method of concrete construction which does away with forms, and the labor of preparing them, by using a tilting table or platform upon which the exterior wall of the building is constructed. with window frames in place; and the finish, or ornamentation all done without the use of staging, etc. When the concrete is set, the wall lying nearly flat is elevated to the vertical at a nominal expense.
 This method is new, only in the sense that it has not been employed in Phoenix; however, the United States government has built mil lions of dollars worth of buildings; and, in many eastern cities vast sums have been saved by it's use.
