COMPANY H"
 ID BE AT RAY
Order Issued for Mastering in Another Company ill National Guard of Ari- zona Enthusiasm Runs High in Mine Town
By C. G. CarneD

RAY, Sept 1-An order has been issued by Adjutant General Harris to
 muster in a company of the National Guard at Ray. A detachment from Ray attended the encampment at Gar den Canyon with Company D of Mesa. The boys reported splendid time on their return home.
 The movement here is in line with the country wide campaign being made for training civilians for service in case of war. It is planned to have weekly drills where the boys will receive the necessary instruction under the super vision of Capt. Stacy of the regular army.
 This movement is nation wide at
 present and appeals to the business men of every locality to cooperate with the movement by joining the re- serves for home protection and assist ing the country to promote a national defense to meet any emergency that may arise.
 The training one receives from be- longing to a military organization ben efits and prolongs ones life from the healthy exercise practiced in drilling Most of the people in the United States pride themselves on what the country has accomplished over one hundred years ago but that is long time since. We are all proud of winning our first battle at Lexington with pitchforks: the war with Mexico was only skirm- ish: our own war in 1861 was a family affair; the Cuban war with Spain, we'll we are ashamed to mention. England has been pipe dreaming on her ancient reputation about Trafalgar Bay, Wa terlOo and Balaklava. The same as the United States is doing at present on her ancient rep.
 It is what confronts us just now Things have changed wonderfully dur ing the last 20 years. Just as long as the other fellow totes a shooting iron around we should have a chest pro- tector close zy for fear of accidents It is hoped that the business men will cooperate with the company by giving the employees a chance to drill There is no reason why Ray should not have the best company in the state.

TENANT RACES ENTER THE
 FINAL STAGES THIS WEEK

for the flag in the National league retained their respective standings although PhiIadelphia's lead was reduced by their losing the first game of the series with New York. Boston, which lost to Gin cinnati, failed to take advantage of the opportunity to dispIace Brook lyn in second place. Only eight points separate the two teams.
 The fight in the American league became more of contest between Boston and Detroit, when the Tig- CTS victory over Chicago more firmly established the White Sox in third place.
 The Red Sox continued their con- sistent winning by defeating Phila deIphia and now seem to have a firm grasp on the flag.

Confusion Exists Regarding Official Yearly Poultry Exhibit Due to Similarity of Names of Two Organ izatiOns

To correct a possible misunder- standing regarding the annual poul- try shows of this state, Secretary H G. Powers Of the local organiza- ton, which operates under just as state wide a title as the Prescott association. has prepared the follow ing statement for publications:
 In order that the article in yester- days Republican headed Annual Poultry Show Will Be Held at Pres colt Fair" will not confuse inter ested persons and others not familiar with the names of the different poultry organizations in the state It should be explained that the an nual show of the Arizona State Poul- try Association will this year be held at Tucson, under the auspices of the Tucson Poultry Association The dates will be announced later The similarity in names of the Pres "ott organization and the Arizona State Poultry Association is liable to confuse most of the poultrymen who are not actively interested and not members of one or the other associa- tions.
 understand that the Prescott as- sociation expects to pull off show at the Prescott fair that will be q hummer this year. and should have the hearty support of the fanciers of this valley. as the state fair will be the only place in this vicinity where they can show their birds this year.

BUILDING OPERATIC MS

Some time ago we mentioned ed
itorially the apparently mislead :
ing census figures quoted for this
city. The census shows no growth
in population in River Falls in the
past twenty-five years. We based
our contention that River Falls has
grown in population upon the fact
that every section Of the city has
experienced a substantial growth
in the building of new residences.
Every year there have been some
new houses built, and it seems "a
though this number is increased
each season. Right now there are
in the neighborhood of twenty new
houses being built in River Falls,
and besides these there are many
old buildings being remodeled and
additions built to others. w e
have in mind just now the follow
ing people who are building w
hOuses---sOme just starting, and
others about completed: Professor
J. H. Ames. Fred Christensen. Wal
ter Patterson, L. H. Morgan, Had
ley Johnson. Val Weisend, Theo.
Jensen, Nels Larson, DR.. E. r.
Smith, John Larson, Coley Krauth,
Mrs. P. c. Flint, F. M. Ulrich, Sam
Hoffman, Fay Miller, Professor J.
I. Mallott, Atty. jill. Grimm land
Lutte Green.
In the line Of building improve
ments, DR.. Gallup is remOdeling the
Newcomb and Hill houses which he
has moved onto his own lots; E.
P. Sanderson lis building living
rooms onto his photo studio; Will
Keith is remOdeling the Ripple
house which he has moved onto
Cascade ave-; Mrs. Waterman S
building an addition to her resi-
dence in the Third Ward; Jay
Win n S M k in g extensive i'm
provements on his residence; Mrs.
Harry Chinook is remodeling her
residence on Second street.
On Main Street Geo. T. Smith is
completing the offices and fla t S
over the Stewart Mercantile Co.
store for tenants who have already
signed for them; DR.. Fortune is
remodeling his dental parlors; Ben
Rosenberg is preparing to install
an electric theatre in his building !;
A. w. Lund is putting an expen-
sive new front on his establish
ment; Freeman has remodeled the
interior Of his drug store to &C
comadate one of the finest soda
fountains in the Northwest; and in
short time most of the buildings
now occupied as saloons will be
altered to accommodate different
lines of business. 1t certainly
would appear that River Falls is
progressing, and there must be
some gain in population to war;
rant the building activities.

H0USER ON LIVE
STOCK SPECIAL
WILL VISIT RIVER FALLS JUNE 22

IF you can prove to your neigh
Dor that it is more profitable, that
it means more money in his pocket,
you can induce him to breed better
horses horses that the market de.
mands. Hours Of argument may
have no effect, but if you can show
him, that, by doing so-an-so he can
make $500 more this year than last,
he will be convinced"
That is what w. L. Houser, who
has been one of the country's most
famous horse breeders for a nun
Der Of years thinks about the draft
horse business. Al the present
time he is operating Ethelwold
Farms, Mondoyi, Buffalo county,
Wisconsin, breeding pure bred Per-
cheron and Clydesdales, as well as
grade market drafters. Because of
his wide experience and knowledge
Of horse matters he has been secur-
ed TO appear as special horseman's
council" on the Live Stock Spe-
cial' which the Wisconsin Live
Stock Breeders Association will
maintain on the Omaha and 500
lines during June and July.
Mr.. Houser has had the distiuc-
tion Of owning and producing seY-
eral noted horses. Princess For
tune, twice grand champion Clydes-
dale mare at the International, was
bred at Ethelwold. Amaryllis. her
half-sister, also Houser mare,
was a state fair champion and first
in class at the International. Cri-
terion, the sire Of both mares, is
one Of the noted Clydesdale stall
lions that was used In the Houser
stud. Honorable, an imported Per-
cheron stallion, for years was in
service at Mr.. HouSer's and was re-

tions in Percheron circles is Princi.
pal, an Honorable colt, now on the
Houser farm. As a foal and yearl-
ing be was a great show ring win
ner AS a two-year-old he weighed
1000 pounds, and great things are
expected of him as a sire and show
ring winner. And there are others,
almost equally as famous.
American horsemen have a splen-
did opportunity to make their horse
business pay more money, accord
ing to Mr.. Houser European con-
ditions after the war will boom the
industry greatly, he thinks. But
the demand in the future will be for
horses or class" Quality, sound
ness and weight, in proper proper
tons, will be the essentials. There
is no reason why Badger stocknen
cannot produce the kind of horses
that attract the buyers, for Wiscon-
sin is favored with all the natural
advantages for such production.
M. Bouser is going to give the
benefit Of his experience and tell
how it is done on his farm. Mon
dovi is one Of the best known horse
breeding centers, and Ethelwold
Farm is the hub OF the business.
When the final schedule Of stops is
received, we will print a full &C
count Of it.
