years a prominent resident of
Snowflake, came down from Ea-

The wonderful changes that
are taking place on the mesas
surrounding St. Johns will be a
great surprise to those who have
not been over the land lying west

turned big grain crops are being
planted fencing is being done
houses are being erected and
everyone is busy and happy.
The water stored in the Lyman

Live Stock Notes

The wool growers want a nat
ional bounty law to encourage the
determination of noxious ami
mails.
The outlook for sheep in New
Mexico is said to be brighter than
ever before despite free wool.
1t is estimated that $1OO, 600
worth of wool will be shipped
from Mesa this season. $4,000
sheep have been wintered on the
desert east of the Gem City.
The Apache County Stock
Growers Association held a meet
ing last week and agreed to meet
again at st. Johns, March 18th.
The meeting will close with a
grand ball.
Mrs. King, the ranch queen Of
Texas and owner of 1000, 900
acres in one solid body, the larg-
est ranch in America, is building
a $500, 900 mansion. She en-
ploys 5000 men, and has a cult
waited farm of 10000 acres.
The department of agriculture
is trying to eliminate the danger
to cattle from poisonous plants
on national forest ranges. Of
these plants larkspur, loco weed,
death camas, and water hemlock
are the most poisonous. Lark
spur does the most harm, because
it is so widely distributed and is
particularly bad for cattle. Or
dinarily, horses will not eat lark
spur, and sheep can eat it with
out apparent injury.
Sam B. Bardner, secretary of
the livestock sanitary board was
an arrival Sunday from Phoenix
and was in consultation yesterday
with the board of supervisors of
this county. Matters pertaining
the preservation of the industry
and for the protection of cattle

sed, with the object of having
joint action taken by all counties
in the state along the lines which
he is advocating. Prescott Cou-

To the Housewife

Madam, if your husband is
like most men he expects you to
look after the health of yourself
and children. Coughs and colds
are the most common of the
minor ailments and are most
likely to lead to serious diseases.
A child is much more likely to
contract diphtheria or scarlet
fever when it has cold. If you
will inquire into the merits of
the various remedies that are
recommended for coughs and
colds, you will find that Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy stands
high in the estimation of people
who use it. 1t is prompt and
effectual, pleasant and safe to
take, which are qualities espec-
ially to be desired when a medi-
cine is intended for children.

CATARACT7

A reader calls attention TO the
opinion of Dr.. 7. that, "eye trou-
BILE known as cataract Is caused
by too great consumption OF
salt and whole wheat bread"
There Is sufficient eVid nee that
much salt is Injurious, but there
is no evidence that has been
made public to show that eye
troubles are caused by salt, and
the assertion that whole wheat
bread has any such influence
has no reason nor evidence
whatever to support 1t, that
know of. We know that the In
fiuence of diet Is far reaching,
but we must distinguish between
conclusions established by reas-
oninq from known facts and sup
ported by clinical evidence and

Congress Giving The
Kent Bill Consideration

Congress is now giving serious
consideration to the Kent bill.
This measure, which would place
stockmen who operate on the
public domains of the United
States on more permanent basis
involves approximately $50, 600, :
900 acres of land, or nearly one
fifth of the area of continental
America. 1t means much for the
future of the American cattle
breeding and feeding business.
The principal provision of the
Kent bill is that which would
give stockmen permission to lease
and fence portions of the public
range in the West and South
west for a period of 10 years.
The measure guarantees to stock
men a reasonable pro-rata value
for Improvements made on the
land and specifies that where
improvements to the extent of
800, including corrals, buildings
we'll and reservoirs, have been
made on a 40-acre tract, such
land shall not be open to settle
ment during the period of the
lease without the consent of the
owner of these improvements.
Preference is given to homestead
ers and other occupants of the
range who have provided water
and other improvements. A
maximum grazing fee of four
cents per ere and a minimum of
one-half cent per acre are stipu-
lated. The interests of home
steaders are safeguarded, provi-
sion being made for the grazing
of stock owned by them in past
lures adjacent to their farms.
The advantages which would
accrue to stockmen on the public
ranges through fencing and leas-
es for periods up to 10 years are
obvious. Range improvement
would doubtless follow because
the stockman who takes tract
of government land under a
lease is naturally desirous of get
ting the greatest possible returns
from it, and would strive to i'm
prove the pasturage conditions.
By giving stockmen ranges for a
period extending up to ten years
the government would eliminate
uncertainty as to provisions for
future offsprings. Fencing, too,
would promote the use of higher
grades of sires.
For many years the American
National Live Stock association
and other organizations Of stock
men have been striving to obtain
more encouraging conditions for
the production of live stock on
federal ranges. In the opinion
of many members of the Nation
al association, the production of
cattle in the West has been ser
iously reduced by the uncertain
conditions prevailing under the
present government regulations.
The American National Live
Stock association objects to only
one clause of this measure that
which sets a minimum price OF
one-half cent per acre on leases.
In many instances, it is claimed,
such a price would be excessive.
Some stockmen are objecting to
the bill because it is feared it
would permit discrimination
against small operators, but the
wording of the measure does not
indicate such a probability. Rep
resentatives of the American

17-YEAR OLD BOY
GUILTY OF ARSON

Mechanic Falls, Me, Nov. 1S.-Dana
F. Brown, 17-year- old son of Mr.. and
Mrs Frank ]. Brown of East Park
street was arraigned before Judge L.
w Prince Tuesday evening at $50
O'clock on the charge of arson.
He pleaded guilty and was placed
under $1,000 bonds for appearance at
the January term of supreme court.
His father and M. N. Royal furnished
the bail.
For over a week. Harry Rowe. State
fire inspector, has been investigating
the two recent fires in the High school
building, and sufficient information
was secured to arrest young Brown.
He made, it is stated, a confession
to Mr.. Rowe.
The youth is a member Of the Bap
fist church, and president of the Sem
ior class at High school and, although
rather retiring in his nature, has al
ways been respected In the village.
Both his parents are members of the
Baptist church and prominent in phil
anthropic work.

GIL were found to be running less per
capita than the average head expense of
the 1876 metropolitan centers of all
classes considered.
There was a notable improvement In
municipal housekeeping accounts, he
found. The happy go lucky way was
being superseded generally by scientific
budgets which made both ends meet.
Both the demand for municipal owner
ship and that for effective control of
privately operated municipal utilities
continued undated. Wyoming and Utah,
he said, were the only states in the
Union which had no form of control to
regulate. in some way or another, the
public utilities. There was still much
discussion throughout the country as to
whether such control should be by state
or local commissions, with the devel-
opments of the past year seemingly more
in favor of state action in these mat
ters.
He concluded with reference to social
problems. The fear that interest in
work along these lines would be abated
on account of the great war, he believed
to be unwarranted. The very greatness
of the European eataclysm will empha-
size the need for greater social and civic
effort he said, An increased emigration
from Europe to America was to be ex-
peeted as result of the war and this
itself would require no little attention.

according to a survey made nv Clinton

his annual address before that organiza-

WITH inquiry among many of the re-

Woodruff learned that MUNICIPALITIES
were going ahead without the slightes,
abrldsment in their plans for such i'm
proVements as had already been author
ized, and although some cities were ex
perleheing difficulty in placing loans
through the usual channels. municipal
credit did not seem to be jeopardized.

walls among financial authorities that the
European situation will in a short time
make municipal securities the most de-

lie reported no recession of interest in

be hazardous to predict that five years
hence not one of the larger cities will be
risking its business and it's future to the
evils of a form which affords such
abundant opportunities for inefficiency,
and waste and mismanagement."

notes the progress of municipal home

The Hair Easily Made

not so much a gift of nature as a mat

Hair is like a plaintiff will not grow
healthy and beautiful unless it has at
tention and proper nutriment.
Partisan Sage. a daintily perfumed
liquid that is easily applied. tones up
and invigorates the hair roots and fur
nishes the necessary nourishment to
not only save and beautify the hair,
but also stimulate it to grow long,

When used frequently and we'll rub

cleanses the hair Of all dust and ex-

obtained from Bowditch- Webster Co.,
or at any drug or toilet counter, never
disappoints, it is no longer necessary

Says No One Need
Remain Thin Now
Physicians Advice for Thin, Unde-
yeloped Men and Women.

Thousands of people who suffer from
excessive thinness, weak nerves and
feeble stomachs who, having tried ad
vertised makers, food-fads, ply
steal culture stunts and rub-on creams.
resign themselves to lifelong skinni-
ness and think nothing will make them
fat Yet their case is not hopeless. A
recently discovered regenerative force
makes fat grow after years of thin
ness, and is also unequalled for re-
pairing the waste of sickness or faulty
digestion and for strengthening the
nerves. This remarkable discovery is
called Sargol. Six strength giving,
producing elements of acknow-
lodged merit have been combined In
this peerless preparation, which is en-
dorsed by eminent physicians and
used by prominent people everywhere.
1t is absolutely harmless, inexpensive
and efficient.
A months systematic use of Sargol
should produce flesh and strength by
correcting faults of digestion and by
supplying highly concentrated fats to-
the blood. Increased nourishment is
obtained from the food eaten, and the
additional fats that thin people need
are provided. Bowditch Webster Co,
and other leading druggists supply
Sargol and say there is a large de-
mand for it.
While this new preparation has given
splendid results as a nerve-tonic and
vitalizer, II should not be used by
nervous people unless they wish to
gain at least 10 pounds Of flesh.--Adv.
