Old Method Of Treatment.

The application of lime to the soil
is one of the oldest methods OF treat
ment known In agriculture 1t was
apparently employed by the Romans
1000 years ago. In various European
countries it has been practised for
many years past. In fact, in all coun-
tries where the principles of agricuI-
ture are scientifically pursued, 1t Is
recognized that the use of lime IN
various forms may be of immense
benefit to the soil.

Sunshine Is Essential

It is essential to have sunshine b.,
get rid Of lice, and it is also neces-
sary that the sunshine be permitted
to enter the houses and dwelling
places of poultry. 1t is a good plan,
however, to have shade trees in the
yard and vines growing over the fence
for comfort In hot weather, and thus
the fowls may rest In the cool OF these
without shutting out tbs sunshine al
together.

DEADLY FRENCH ARTILLERY FIRE

The Germans are gone, and Chalons
| is rejoicing in the good news The latest
reports seem to indicate a general re-
tirement from the strong line Of de-
fense which the Germans constructed
| to the north of Rheims and to the east
and west.
Their trenches on this line are won
derful works Of art. Dug to a depth of
six feet they are covered and protected
in many cases with layers Of reinforced
concrete. This work was executed by
the forced labor of the Inhabitants to
form defensive position in case of
| need while the troops were still fighting
on the Marne.
Work Way, Foot by Foot.
up to this line the French worked
their way foot by foot, until in places
| their front was not 100 yards from the
German trenches. The condition Of these
undratned trenches when examined will
be found to be terrible. The wounded az
we'll as the dead lie where they fell
| amid the wet and filth. The French in
the advanced trenches could hear cries
at night when the firing paused. coming
across the narrow belt over which the
two armies fought.
These terrible conditions, as much as
| the French fire. dislodged the Germans
from their miniature forts. In some of
the trenches on the heights above
Rheims the French had to drown the
Germans out. Lines Of hose were lad
from the town and the fire pumps
| worked until the water stood breast
high.
Chalons Suffers Little.
'Chalons suffered little from the Ger
man occupation. Not a single house is
damaged and only one inhabitant was
killed. The German governor imposed a
fine Of 100000 francs ($600. .000) on the
department of Marne, of which Chalons
is the principal town. The deputy mayor
pleaded for milder treatment, and the
Prince of Saxony. who is an officer of
the German army. seconded his efforts,
whereupon the governor reduced the de-
mand to 100000 francs (s1OO, ,0O0).

 It will mean just as much and more to this growing town, to have her civic servants. push the interests of the town, for the sake of the town alone than for their own personal in terests, if they have any.

 It will make Phoenix the crown of the west. not alone capital city and incidentally q tourist and con- vention town. but real live busi- ness center.

 That is the automobile showing which to the square foot exceeds any hing in the United States
 It shows the progressive spirit of it's people; they live right up to date and are alive all the time All that Phoenix needs is to have the
