INVENTIVE GENIUS
 IS STILL AT WORK

Judge (. H. Rutherford of Jerome has patented another invention Ii is an auto truck tire that is practi- cally indestructible.
 A month or so ago Judge Ruther- ford patented a device to fit inside woman's hat and do away with hatpins. Arrangements are now be- ing made to manufacture the device and place 1t on the market. It can not be as big money-maker as the truck tire, however, if the tire is what he claims it is.
 The truck tires now in use are solid rubber Rubber is necessary to give resiliency, but the wearing surface is rubber and the life of one Is comparatively short.
 Judge Rutherford has effected a combination with an eastern inven- tor who has compounded a liquid that makes wood very tough and re- sistant to wear. His new truck tire has blocks of this wood set upon a base of rubber and held in place by an iron band. The rubber can be as thick as desired It furnishes the resiliency, but all the wear is on the wood blocks. These blocks, treated with the compound of the eastern firm are good for thousands of miles of travel.

 Minor Differences Noted"
 Chairman Underwood, the tariff
 Pooh Bah, says that fin the recent hearings we have noted from time to time minor differences in the conclusions of the majority mem bers." The chairman goes on to explain the aim of the new tariff legislation which is to remove the present tariff mountain" and "to build Tn its place wall only so high as to provide for the intake of suffi- cient tax imports to provide ade- quate revenue The plan is to soak 1t to the luxuries,' as one ex- pressive statesman puts it. and to slow down on the necessities" In the meantime the different sections ot the country are showing their in terest in the proposed revision and Massachusetts Democrats want pro lection for shoes, while Ohio does not, but the latter state is enthusi- astic for protection for wool. Thus 1t IS that in the desire of different sections of the country to have their particular interests protected, that the minor differences" are begin ming to show up.

A parallel situation to the contro- versy as to whom discovered the north pole, Cook or Peary, arose yesterday in the Superior Court over the ownership of a twenty acre strip that lies somewhere in Mint Valley and is claimed by Fitzhugh Lee and Sam B. Pemberton, the first named being the plaintiff. There are about sixty acres of soil in the strip, and to make the litigation somewhat perplexing, Lee and Pemberton are located side by side as neighbors and both have patents to the land. The plaintiff says the defendant is encroaching on twenty acres, and the defendant alleges the same thing against the plaintiff Both claim to be fortified in data that designates certain metes and bounds but two set of surveyors have run the lines in favor of their respective clients. The acres have an L shape, but where the initial monument is located is the bone of the controver- sy. If it is proven that the sixty begins half way down the L, Penn berton wins, as his contention will give him the strip that runs at right angles. On the other hand if his tenantry is proven to start at the beginning of the letter high up. Lee will get away with the soil that em- braces the prong running at right angles
 Another Interesting Case.
 Another interesting case is that Of Peter Gordon vs. William Lubin over a lease on certain property in Jerome, both at one time being part ners in business.

JOKE ON FRIENDS
 NOT ON GILMORE

News Bureau of the Journal-Min- CT, Room .2O3, N. B. A. Bldg.
 PHOENIX, Jan. 25-W. c. Gil more, county attorney of Cochise county is in Phoenix today having come here for the purpose Of argu- ing before the Supreme Court the case of the appellee in the matter of Gilmore versus High which came up on appeal from Cochise county and is a proceeding being conducted for the purpose of testing the law en- acted by the last session of the leg islature which authorized Boards of Supervisors to redistrict justice pre- cincts and, appoint justices of the peace High was formerly justice of the peace of Bisbee precinct. To succeed him Waiter Thomas was named by the Cochise county super visors which action High opposed in court but was given an adverse decision to his contention by Judge Sutter. From the order of Judge Sutter the appeal was taken which is the matter which as stated above was argued and submitted to the Supreme Court justices this morn ing.
 Joke With Dougle Edge.
 Mir. Gilmore is not a stranger in Phoenix being called here frequent ly by his official duties and conse- quently finds a part of his time here on each visit taken up with greeting friends and renewing acquaintances. On this visit he has been forced to submit to much pleasant joking by his friends over the case of John Oldham, an honor convict who es- caped from one of the convict camps in Pinal county on the 17th of the month and who according to the Arizona Gazette had been recom- mended to Governor Hunt by MT. Gilmore, as county attorney of the county from which Oldham had been convicted, as a good man for one Of the convict honor road camps. His friends had accepted as true the statements of the Gazette and thought they had joke on Gilmore for his error in judgment.
 It develops however that no re commendation concerning Oldham was ever made by MT. Gilmore to the Governor, Arizona Gazette or any one else which could possibly be construed to entitle Oldham to honor camp privileges. On October 9th MT. Gilmore wrote to Warden Sims of the state prison concerning James Heron, a co-defedant of Old ham, both having been convicted of cattle stealing, and stated that he believed Heron if made a member of an honor squad would justify the confidence. The situation at the prison and the department of Her ron shows that Mir. Gilmore had judgment in reading the character of Heron. A part of his letter concerning Oldham, which is print ed below, shows that his character was also well read considering that in escaping from the authorities he stole the horse on which he fled. A part of Gilmores' letter to Warden Sims read as follows:
 Character Recommendation.

children. at the tightening of toll in the
home and the raising of standards men,

And it is the women of the farms
themselves who are doing the great
work. 1t is their own efforts for them
selves and their sisters which. when you
come to think of it add thousandfold to
the interest OF the movement.
In Europe the government of each OF
the countries has made grants of money
for the propagation of the movement.
and many women Of title and large es-
tates have set aside large sums of money
for the same purpose. One Hungarian
princess, who owns a large farm, has
employed a corps of trained nurses TO
teach the women of the province simple
science of good nursing. proper foods,
etc. And everywhere the women them
selves are deeply interested.
On October %, 1918, the Information
al Congress of Farm Women will meet

Other Matters of Interest.
The last meeting of the County
Board of Education was an interest
ing and important one.
The local school tax rate was
among the matters considered, with
the result that levy of four mills,
or 81 on the thousand, was agreed
upon. This Is an increase of one
mill over last years levy, when prop
erty owners paid for school purposes
in the county a tax of $500 on the
thousand.
Another action taken by the board
was to discontinue the custom of pay
ing patrons to haul their own chill
dren to and from school,
The amount of money allowed
each white school in the county and
the number of teachers to be employ
ed was fixed as follows: School with
an average of II and under 10 pu-
pills, $35 per month and one teacher;
an average of Is and less than 90
$40 and one teacher; an average of
20 or more and under 80 pupils $50

age of 40 AID under 81 pupils, 800
and two teachers; an average of over
55 and under so pupils, $175 and
three teachers; an average Of over
so pupils, 1925 and four teachers.
For every month, in which these
averages are not sustained a pro-
portionate sum will be deducted from
the salary of each teacher.
The trustees of each school were
authorized to charge an entrance fee
.of one dollar per pupil. This en-
trance fee may be paid one-half at
