Where Divorce Is Easy.

As to easy divorce neither Aus tralia nor America leads the way, if we admit uncivilized tribes into the competition. Among some Siberian tribes, for instance, a man need only uncover his wife's head and walk away; and the Eskimo has only to leave his house and stop away in pretended anger for a day or two.
 In Nepal a woman can divorce her husband at any time by simply placing a betel nut under his pillow and taking her departure. And two chopsticks broken in the presence of witness are sufficient to divorce a couple in Cochin China.-London Chronicle.

A we'll known horseman describes a fact in natural history which may not be generally known. It is that all four footed beasts in making the first movement in walking, run ming or any sort of forward motion always employ the left hind leg as a starter. Even child if put down on all fours and bidden to advance in that position will make the first move with its left leg, its hands at the time occupying the place of an animals fore legs.

Kansas City Cattle
 and Sheep Prices

Kansas City Stock Yards, Nov. 23, 1914. The sharp ad- vance Monday of last week was held till the close of the week on all grades of cattle except me dium and common steers. The restricted opening of Chicago and St. Louls resulted in an un- stable demand at those points. with uneven and lower markets. as no stock was permitted to be shipped out, and the demand was found unsatisfactory without the steadying element of the order buying trade. Outside order buy ing, which is now centered at Kansas City on account of exist ing regulations. proved to be the main prop of the market here. Some orders for eastern killers were carried over to this week. Receipts today are 26,0OO cattle here, market on killing grades 10 to 20 lower. stockers and feed CTS at a standstill. A report that two sick calves had been discov- cred at the Wichita yards. and the closing of that market to the stocker and feeder trade till it is found what is the nature of the disease, was sufficient to post pone transactions in stockers and feeders here, although some bids 9 to 50 lower were made. The case is not regarded se- here, except as to it's eff feet on the demand for stockers and feeders. as every sick COW now gets attention from inspec- tors looking for foot and mouth disease symptoms. Prime steers sold about steady today, Eastern killers being out early in search of them; top $10.55, yearlings at S10 25, and good heavy steers at $9.90. Middle class steers sold 10 lower. at $8.2 to $9.5O, Colo rado beef steers ST to ST 35. Western cattle on the feeder or der were deprived of support from country buyers, and sold 15 to 25 lower. some steers at $6. 65, being regarded 9 lower. Cows and heifers sold with a minimum decline, veal calves 25 to 50 low er, tops $10. quarantine cattle 10 ower and fairly active.

Items of Iterest From
 Our NeighbOr County
From St. Johns Observer]


 Three threshers are running Tn the valley now-the Colter machine, the Udall-Nelson ma chine and Albert Woods steam threshers. Threshing should be wound-up this week if the weather stays good. Round val ley will produce about 75,0O0 bushels of grain this year-prac- tically all ats.-Eagar corre- spondent.
 The automobile register shows 344 cars have passed through our valley this year on their way west to the coast. Counting all the traffic going the other way, and Arizona and New Mexico cars passing through on trips be- tween intermediate points. the years traffic will perhaps total 400 cars for 1914.
 Alfalfa hay is plentiful this year at SIP per ton. and a pros- pect of holding a lot over until another year. unless hard win ter or a too backward spring compels the feeding of cattle. Oats are bringing 2 cents. with plenty on hand and a good local demand, though the valley is supplying none to Ft. Apache this year.
 It is reported here that the Earl brothers. John c. Hall and Geo. Winsor have taken con- tract to gather up Indian horses on the Apache Indian reserva- tion. The contractors are to re- ceive a third of all horses gath ered-branded and unbranded. The territory to be worked in cludes Cibecue, Chiricahua pas ture, Double Circle pasture. the White mountains and some minor places. Work starts early Tn De- cember.
 The U. s. Postofice Depart ment has advertised for bids for carrying the mail between Hol- brook and Edgar, for which seal ed proposals will be received up 10 Dec. 15. 1914. It is alleged that the present contractor, $. Smith. has violated the postal laws in handling parcel post mat ter, and his contract becomes null and void as soon as the work can be turned oyer to other par ties. The terms of the new con- tract will be somewhat different from the old.
 It is stated on good authority l that St. Johns and Northern Ari- zona will soon boast of a canning factory. The project is now be- ing actively worked up by R. D. Helnbockel. who has associated |
  with him as stockholders: Dr. T. l J. Bouldin, Owe E. Overson. J. | Fred Nelson and c. F. Montross. It is proposed to let out contracts for next seasons planting of | vegetables, etc., and to utilize | part of the fruit raised, also to begin actively within thirty days by canning chili and a special ar ,icle of diet called "St. Johns Rarebit," which we are told by MT.

AzOturia, Cold Weather
 Disease of Horses

As some cases of Azoturia have
 occurred in thIs section, THE
 NEWS has been requested to pub
 fish the following from the week
 ly bulletin of the Department of
 Agriculture.
 With the approach of cold
 weather horse owners should guard against azoturia. winch occurs almost invariably in we'll conditioned animals and claims many victims, especially during the winter season.
 Various local names have been given to thls disease, among which may be wentioned 'Ium- bago." spinal meningitis. and
 black water" The two former terms have been applied owing to the hard and swollen condi- tion of the muscles of the Joins and croup and the loss of con- trol of the bind parts commonly observed in these cases. and the latter name is descriptive of the urine, which is usually of a dark coffee color.
 While azoturia may occur at any season of the year it is but seldom observed during the warm weather of summer. It usually appears in higher fed. we'll nourished animals which, though accustomed to regular work, have renamed idle for one or more days without a cores bonding reduction in the nations.
 As a rule the animal is attack ed suddenly soon after leaving the stable Tn apparently perfect condition. The attack may occur after 5 or 10 minutes driving or, in some cases, several hours after the horse has left the stable.
 Among the first symptoms are a staggering of the hind parts, knuckling at the pasterns, and profuse precipitation. In spite of such spasms in muscles of the hind parts the horse attempts to go on until he soon falls helpless ly. Usually there are efforts to rise, but as a rule the animal is unable to stand even should he regain hIs feet. and it becomes necessary to remove him to the stable on a wagon, sled. or drag.
 Horses attacked with azoturia should be immediately freed from the wagon and harness and be provided with ample straw or other bedding to protect them from injury incidental to the struggle to regain their feet. Especial cale must be taken to prevent beating of the head up- on the ground. and If the patient is very restless a strong man should place his knees upon the neck and hold the head | firmly upon the ground. Throw a warm blanket over the pros- trate horse and arrange inn mediately for his removal to a stable. where commodious and | well bedded box stall should be provided, or, If such is not avail able. the barn floor or a comfort able shed can be utilized.
 In the meantime a qualified should be summon ed. azoturia being a disease which requires skillful treat ment and careful nursing. Until the horse is able to stand it will be necessary to pass a catheter and draw the urine at least twice a day, and also, as an Item of nursing. to turn the animal from side to side at frequent intervals. Tn order to avoid of bed sores. Both treatment and nursing are best carried out under direction of skilled veterinarian who is with ren11ired instr11-

DO SO BAD IN DAY RUNS
Transcontinental Trip Had Record
Day of 1856 MiIes-Fauber Drove
$50 to Prescott

pride and using much of the space on
his cheeks to smile over the showing
made by the little wagon on the Lin
coin highway transcontinental voyage.
This is the first time-according to the
enthusiastic press notice writers-that
4 car has traversed the continent over
the new northern route, and the first
small car of the Saxon's horsepower, to
hake a sanctioned try at transcontinen-
tai roads,
At any rate, the drivers backed the
diminutive but husky car into the At
lantic ocean at New York, and showed
the front ones into the Pacific at San
Francisco, Thoroughly wetting 'em.
The trip was completed in thirty
days of easy running, over route that
measured perzactly 1889 miles. A run
of 1856 miles between Kimball, Nebras
ka and Denver was the record. In not
ing this point, Fauber also points to
has own and to DR.. Redewilrs Saxon
trips between Phoenix and Prescott
also in a day, and over a road only "a
miles shorter than the transcontinental
cars record day.
