THEPAINTED DESERT
A Nation of Wild Men Within
the Borders Of the
United States

SAN DIEGO, CAL, Jan. 14.-For.
mer expositions have shown wild
men and women from the Antipodes,
but it has remained for the San
Diego Exposition to find a whole
nation of wild men within the borders
of the United States, a whole vast
area where nothing has progressed
since before the invasion of Mexico
by COrtez in 1917. This area is in
northeastern Arizona, and the Santa
Fe Railway will cover ten acres of
ground at the Exposition with as
close a copy of this country as is
possible to produce.
This locality is known as the
Painted Desert. 1t is land where
no white man has dared attempt
agriculture or mining, where there
is nothing but the Indian. his ancient
civilization unaltered, living in six
story houses of 100 rooms without
an outside door, doing the same
things in the same way his forefath-
ers did for centuries before white
men came to America.
Comparatively few white men
have penetrated this district. None
have remained there. At long in
tervals a scientist has penetrated the
Businesses Of the red and yellow hills.
Indians emerge from it occasionally,
but they invariably return. Their
homes are the identical buildings
erected many centuries ago. Their
pottery is the same, used for the
same purpose and in the same rude
manner. Their customs and tribal
laws remain unchanged since when
no men knows to the contrary. They
irrigate small patches of grain just
as did their forefathers. The coun-
try repels even the hardy prospector.
Trees, except those petrified into
stone, are not seen. No two hills
are of the same color. The very
rocks are variegated in hue. The
pitiless sun scorches all vegetation
encouraged by the winter and spring
rains.
Members of the Santa Fe explor-
ing party declare the Painted Desert
rivals the wonderful Grand Canyon
of the Colorado in grandeur and
beauty of scenery. A second party
has been sent into it to gather ma
terial for the great exhibit the rail-
way will install at the San Diego Elk.
position, to contain everything pos
sible to bring from that region, a
territory that seems to have been
forgotten by Nature herself.

NEW VOLUME TABLE

The Forest Service is at present
constructing a new volume table,
based on approximately 5000 trees,
for western yellow pine in northern
New Mexico. The measurements
on which this table is being based
were taken some time ago on the
Coconino National Forest and the
data is at present being worked up.
The volume table will classify the
trees by diameters and heights so
that from the table the total volume
Of any tree of given diameter and
height may be ascertained. This
table will be of value to lumbermen
in estimating western yellow pine
timber, since by its use very close
estimate may be obtained simply by
getting the diameter of tree four
and half feet from the ground and
estimating the number of logs the
tree contains.

DRINKING MORE WHISKY

One of the best reasons that pro-
hibition does not prohibit is found in
the fact that the people of the
United States still permit the man.
ufacture and sale Of distilled spirits.
The revenue collected from the
manufacture of whisky is still ac-
ceptable to the people, both prohibi-
tionists and anti-prohibitionists, and
is used to pay the peoples debts Ito
keep up the government).
So far, 1t would seem, the pro-
hibition movement rather helps the
whisky factories while 1t puts the
saloons out Of business. Something
should be done on educational lines
10 convince the people that the only
way to stop whisky drinking is by
national legislation-an amendment
to the constitution-to prohibit the
manufacture and sale of whisky and
spirituous liquors. In other words,
II you want to destroy the evil, start
at its roots.
The following report of Commits
sioner Osborn, of the Internal
Revenue Bureau, at Washington, D.
c., giving out on January 23d, ap-
pears to prove that there is more
whisky drank today than ever before,
notwithstanding the success of the
prohibition movement. The report
says:
The American people drank TO-
100000 gallons of whisky, smoked
1880, 300, 900 cigars and puffed8, Ill.,.
100000 cigarettes during the six
months ending December 81, 1918.
The revenue collected from dis
titled spirits amounted to s85, ,S62,-

ALFALFA YIELD

Prof. G. F. Freeman. plant breed
er, Agricultural Experiment Station,
Tucson, Arizona. gives the following
advice in regard to increasing the
alfalfa yield:
The average yield Of alfalfa hay
in Arizona is about six tons per
acre, yet If proper methods of farm.
ing are used this average should be
increaeed TO eight or ten tons per
acre.
The tsses Of low yield are, first
improper leveling, which causes
some of the alfalfa to be too dry
and some to be too wet. The land
should not be put into alfalfa until
it has been properly leveled.
Second Is poor preparation, which
results in an uneven stand Of plants,
and in varying textures of the soil
which in some places, takes the water
readily and in other places does not
take the water. Many Of the So
called slick spots are the result Of
poor leveling and poor preparation.
Third is a lack of humus in the
soil, which needs particularly light
gravelly or sandy sois) a green
manure crop Or some farm manure.
Fourth is slick spots formed by
deposits of fine silt or by alkali,
which are benefited by the use of
green manure crops, farm manure
and thorough cultivation.
Fifth alkali can be treated by
heavy flooding and in the case of
black alksli quantity of gypsum
should be applied to the soil and
well mixed with 1t previous to flood.
ing.
Sixth is the formation Of silt
blankets, which shut out the watel
and air from the alfalfa, Thes,
conditions may be removed by the
use of a disk harrow or an alfalfa
cultivator, which will break up the
silt deposit.
Seventh is weeds, such as johnson
grass and Bermuda. which injure
the stand of alfalfa and should be
prevented, If possible, from gaining
foothold by the use of sharp shovels
after each cutting. Lands badly
infested by such weeds should not
be planted to alfalfa until they have
been eradicated.
Eighth is over-grazing, which is a
very common cause uf injury to
alfalfa fields. Alfalfa should be
grazed only for thirty or forty days
in the fall or early winter when the
ground is dry. After grazing cul-
tivate and irrigate. 1t will be found
that if these various causes can be
eliminated, the alfalfa yield will be
greatly increased in Arizona.

VOTE FOR HIGH SCHOOL

The high school election will take
place tomorrow. The opportunity
will come for the people of this
town to dec are in favor Of higher
education at home for the boys and
girls who pass the eighth grade.
The ambitious boy or girl will
have the chance to complete the
education that Is most needed for
the life that comes after leaving
school, and this higher education is
better secured at home than abroad.
It should be the heartfelt wish of
every man and woman to do every.
thing in their power to bring sue
cess at the polls tomorrow. for it
means so much for your children to
have q chance, now denied them, to
complete their education. "
The boys and girls who reach the
eighth grade are only beginning the
education Of life. The studies in
the last grammar grade are only
preparatory for the work ahead,
and as tis now, with no opportunity
at athome, to continue the school work
that better prepares for the life to
come as men and women. they must
forego their chances, perhaps, for
ever, to secure that which better
fits them for the chosen avocation
Of the future.
BY all means, we must have the
high school established here. We
want the best education for our
children that we can give them and
we want to give them their educa.
tion at home. where we can watch
their progress and encourage them
in their work.
We should be selfish only in secur-
ing for our boys and girls and our
neiRhbors' boys and girls every ad.
vantage possible under existing laws
for higher education at home. We
shall be proud over the success of
our own boy and girl, we will also
be proud over the success Of our
neighbor's boy and girl, for we are
all combined to secure the very best
education for all the children and
we are proud Of our town for the
opportunity 1t gives.
Let us all get together tomorrow
and make the vote for high school
in this towu unanimous. Let us
forget everything else save a higher
education at home for our boys and
girls. and in doing 80, we will reap
the great benefits that are sure to
come to our children, which will also
mean our own happiness.
Remember this: You can leave
no better legacy to your children
than a good education to fit them
properly for their work in life. Be.
lieve this and vote for a high school
In your town, your children's town, |
and secure that pleasure that comes |
in the accomplishment of a good |
deed.

According to the Moorish Idea of beauty, the chief charm of Il beautiful woman k thut she cun only wuddle. not walk. The fatter she K the more beautiful she is considered. If she can attain two or three hundred pounds of flesh she Is the envy of all her sex.
 The Moorish shupe-lf shape 1t can be called-approaches the perfection of feminine beauty when 1t resembles, or rather exceeds. the circumference of barrel.
 What a paradise for the fat woman! There she can eat and drink and feast to her hearts content. denying herself nothing. living an easy. indolent. luxuri- ous life. with no horror of accumulat- Ing fat but rather rejoicing in 1t.
