1t is also cheaper because the labor

OF plant foods is no greater than that
for handling SIS worth Of plant
foods in the lower grade goods.
Some farmers seem to think they
cannot afford to buy the higher
grade, or higher priced per ton fer
tiiizer, apparently forgetting that a
smaller quantity of the higher grade
goods is as valuable as a larger
quantity of the lower grade.
For instance, If 400 pounds Of the
lower grade. or No. /. be used per
acre the cost per acre will be $4.2O.
The same amount Of money expend-
ed per acre for the higher grade, or

WARE THE BUG.

The public drinking cup
has gone in almost every
place; the public roller towel
is tottering on its last legs,
and now comes the warning
from the United States public
health service, beware the
cigar clipper, as it is an ef-
fective agent for the distribu-
ton Of diseases.
Many smokers, on buying
a cigar, put it to their lips to
slightly moisten it before put
ting itin the clipper, and this
says the public health service
brings about.the exchange Of
mouth secretions, and is a
possible means of spreading
infectious diseases.
Tobacco is a very good dis
infectant, but possibly there
are certain disease germs that
thrive on it, as is the case
with some people.
Maybe this germ sea re,
when connected with cigar
clippers is carried too far.
However, one notices a great
many smokers who have
formed the habit Of using
their pocket knives instead,
which is a good habit.
Using a cigar clipper is
mild though, when compar-
ed to the habit of shooting
snikes' or taking "butts' or
swapping chewing gum, or
kissing when you are not
right sure who the kissee is.
"Swat the fly has been
the slogan this past summer,
and in doing SO their breed
ing place was overlooked in a
great many instances. In
grocery windows one could
see enough fly paper to pa
per a bungalow and IN the
alley behind, enough rotten
vegetables and garbage to
raise a million more flies.
There isn't much use in swat
ling the fly when ten thous-
and will come to his funeral,
and leave dirt and filth galore
all around town for them to

NIPPINGS.
Eliminate the Sweat Shop.

A deeply interesting contribu-
ton has just appeared, by Mr..
Adolph Wischan, connected
with the department of factory
inspection of the state of Illinois,
and at one time in charge of a
division of the census bureau in
Washington. In taking up the
question Of child labor in the
United States, Wischan reviews
conditions in all states where
there has been legislation. He
concludes that the only methods
of reform lie in the direction of
legislation. Child labor regula-
ton appears to be matter for
the severul states, rather than
for the federal government, "
and for that reason the subject
is treated in the Illinois bulletin
from the viewpoint of uniform
child labor laws by states
throughout the nation. Here is
statement in the treatise by
Wischan that should be read by
all:
when the daughter of Sir
Robert Peel was stricken with
typhus, the infection was traced
to a stylish riding habit ordered
and fitted at a correct Regent
street shop, but finished in the
tenement of starving tailor
with two children i'll of the few
er.
''Five-eights of the clothing
amanating from our large cities
is made wholly or partly in sweat
shops, which frequently are
radiating centers for disease
germs.
THE little child that is forced
to strain its eyes, to bruise its
little hands and to scar it's tend
er heart over interminable work,
such as making garments, arti-
fetal flowers and the like, that
the grasping employer may get a
little more profit, and that the
fine lady may get her hat or
cloak a little cheaper, is breeding
a disease germ more deadly than
that Of any fever that merely
kills.
What the child forced into
labor earns is taken from him,
but by anG by he may discover
that what he steals and keeps to
himself is not his to enjoy.
There the foundation of a life of
crime is laid broad and deep.
Forcing the child to labor
without reward molds his i'm
pressionable mind to the idea
that all labor is q curse put on
the poor by the rich. There the
seed Of anarchy is planted.
There are infections that burn
deeper than feyers and there are
noxious seeds that may fly faf,
but find soil at last. =
In blessed Arizona we have no
Child labor" problem, it is true.
but every sweat shop garment
we purchase aids in perpetual
tion of the noxious system. If a
sweat shop garment were un-
salable throughout the land
there would be no sweat shops.
Therefore our duty is obvious;
Whether we be in sympathy
with union labor or not, we
should purchase only garments
bearing the union label tag and
thereby be certain that we are
not buying an article coined from
the very life blood of babies.

statement follows:
In entering upon the duties OF the

appreciation Of the confidence reposed
in me by the voters of Ada county,

BILE enough to perform the duties OF

cooperation of the taxpayers OF the

be a good idea for the taxpayers them
selves to get together and discuss the
real values of property in their re-

as well as the assessor, to an under

"As the people know, the custom of
