FURTHER DEVELOPMENTS
 IN THE CLIFTON STRIKE
MONDAY

PHOENIX. Ger. 10 - Governor Hunt this afternoon received a com munication from the managers of the mines in the Clifton Metcalf. Moreno district.
 The managers accuse the governor of inflammatory utterances and of be- ing openly affiliated with the Western Federation of Miners and charge that. largely on this account. the managers were compelled to leave the district. They assure the governor that the con ditions were well known to him and that at the time he was denouncing them for leaving the district. hundreds of citizens were being driven out of the camps hy threats of violence Th" managers reiterate that they will not operate their properties under the aus pices of th- Western Federation of Miners and will not return to this dis trict until the governor assures them that law abiding citizens vii! be safe there.
 Charles F. Mover. president of the Western Federation of Miners, Guy F Miller. of Denver. executive board member of the federation. and George Powell. of Miami. special organizer for the federation in Arizona. conferred with Gov. Hunt at his office in the state house yesterday.
 The federation leaders say they have completed the organization of branches of the Western r, iteration of Miners at Clifton. Morenci and Metcalf and that they have plenty of beans, flour and potatoes with which to carry on a prolonged strike

There are $500 men on strike. 1000 of whom are Mex jeans and the remainder about equally divided between Americans, Spaniards and italians.
 The Western Federation of Miners has completed its organization work. having installed three unions, one at Clifton. one at Morenci. and a. third at Metcalf
 "The strike will last until the strikers win out as they have plenty of flour. beans and potatoes, and also the en dorsement of the state labo. f, derationS of Arizona and California"
 Orders were issued to Company L of the state militia at Yuma to entrain at once for Clifton.

SECURE THE CLEANEST MILK
Barns Should Be Kept UnpolIuted and
Yards Free From Manure and
Litter Of All Kinds.

These rules are given for the clean
est milk obtainable with only little
more than ordinary care: Barns should
be kept clean and well ventilated, the
yards free from manure and litter and
drained so that no water will stand
there. Before milking. the cows
should be brushed around the TANKS
and udder with a stiff brush; this
should be followed with damp cloth
which will remove many of the dust
particles and so dampen the others
that they will stick to the COW during
the process Of milking. The mixer
should keep his hands dry during the
milking. Milking with damp hands
is filthy process and is apt to cause
the teats of COW TO chafe and be-
come a source of annoyance. The milk
should be removed from the barn or
milking pen to a milk house Just as
soon as possible after II is drawn. The
milk should be separated and the
cream cooled as soon as possible after
milking.

to the dairyman's advantage to belong
to this class. The proposition con-
fronting the dairyman today is not
primarily a matter Of location, soil
or climate: 1t is he, himself. that

Few people, realize what intelligence,

walton and experience are needed to

to the mind the language Of the COW
in such a manner as to understand
her every need and be able to properly
supply IL. The inherent and fatal
weakness of many people is that they
wholly ignore the really important
and decisive factor of success in all
fields of human activity, viz, trained
and intelligent judgment, based on
sound theory and practice. The cause
and cure for the backwardness of the
dairyman is in his mind, and in the
solution Of his problems chief promi-
hence must be given to the human fac
tor. The trouble with many dairymen
is that they think they know, which is

HOGS READY FOR FATTENING
Many Farmers Overlook Value Of Crop
to Supplement Pastures-sweet
Corn 10 Favored.

Many farmers who are quite success
full in raising hogs fail when 1t comes
near the point where they must be
fattened quickly and inexpensively.
The plan of growing a crop which
may be used to supplement the pas
ture when the latter loses its value.
as 1t is likely to do in the late sum-
mer and early fall. has proved to be
the one thing lacking with many hog
raisers. Those who have used sweet
corn for the purpose are loud in their
praise of 1t, and with good reason, for
1t certainly seems as II the young hogs
made a growth that could be seen,
and in an incredibly short time.
The crop is raised by sowing the
sweet corn as field corn is sown and
feeding the green ears when they are
about in the best condition for table
use. To get the best results from
this plan, where one has a quantity of
hogs, the seed of early, medium and
late varieties should be sown. II will
be found especially valuable in a dry
season.

look good on the outside. The germ is
next the cob. We have learned from
experience that grains with dark
points may sprout in the tester, but
they send up weak sprouts and are not
reliable.
A simple way of drying and storing
seed corn for homo use is to fill coarse
burlap sacks and suspend them in the
barn by a single wire. Mice will some
times descend double wire and take
the germs from your best kernels. OF
course, corn should not be sacked
when at all damp and less than a
bushel should not be placed in q sack,
says writer in an exchange. This
method would seem tedious to seed
corn growers, no doubt, but it will be
OF use to many small farmers.
The final selection Of corn for seed
should be made next spring when the
sacks of ears are opened and the ears
shelled. Some defects will likely appear
then which were not noticed this fall
Irregular kernels should then be re-
jected as they may lodge in the planter
and cause a poor stand For this rea
son tips and butts should be rejected
