FOREST FIRE PROTECTION.
Rangers Garry TwO-and-a-Haif Pound
Telephone on Their Forest Trips.

Washington, d. c., April 10.-A por-
and weighing two and one-half pounds,
the invention of a Forest officer, r. B.
Adams of Missoula, Montana, will be
part of the regular equipment OF
patrolmen on the National Forests
the coming field season. This instru-
ment is regarded as great improve
ment over the set formerly used,
which weighed ten pounds.
1t is said that field man equipped
with this telephone, a few yards OF
| light emergency wire, and short
piece of heavy wire to make the
ground connection can cut in any
where along the more than 10000
miles of Forest Service telephone lines
/ and get in touch with the headquarters
of a supervisor or district ranger. To
talk, one end of the emergency wire
| is thrown over the telephone line, the
| two ends are connected to the portable
! instrument, and the instrument is con-
nected to the ground wire, the end of
which must be thrust into the damp
earth or in water. Cntact with the
| line wire is made possible by removal
of the insulation from few inches Of
| the emergency wire.
The Adams instrument does not ring
| ,Ae bell of the receiving telephone,
but instead causes a screening sound
from a small megaphone-shaped ap-
paratus descriptively known as a
"howler" This instrument is in
stalled at the ranger station tele-
phone and is said to give effective
notice that some one is on the wire.
If the field man needs to talk with
some one elsewhere on the line, the
ranger station instrument can be used
to ring up the person wanted, when
the conversation can be carried on.
Forest officers say that these port
able phones are especially valuable
in reporting fires and other emergen-
cies with the least possible delay, and
also in sending instructions to field
men and keeping the district rangers
| informed as to the progress of work
going on in the field, thus supplement-
ing the regular telephone sets in
stalled at lookout points, ranger sta
tons, and at convenient intervals
along Forest Service roads and trails.

MILK BOTTLE EXCHANGE.
Milkmen Trying to Secure Own Bottles
Before May /.

Milkmen selling milk in this city
have devised a new scheme by which
they expect to secure ali of the bottles
upon which their name appears before
May 1.
This is being accomplished by con-
Quoting bottle exchange at the
Baumann Dairy company The diff
ferent milkmen in gathering up the
bottles on their routes take the bottle
of any dealer, and then deposit the
bottles which do not bear their name,
with the Baumann's and receive one
of their own in exchange.
This system, they believe, will work
out Better than any tried heretofore.
and in this way they will be able to
avoid the fine which will be placed
upon anyone using cap bearing
their name, on a bottle upon which the
name of their competitor is blown.
The law governing the uses CT milk
bottles becomes effective May 1.

PUNCH BOARDS GO.
Chief Black Orders Out the Little
Candy Sellers.

After several complaints from
women, Chief of Police Block Friday
morning issued orders that all candy
punch boards had to be removed, he
taking the stand that the little candy
sellers were games of chance.
The board was so constructed that a
patron could punch number and at
all times get bar of candy, with the
added chance of getting a box of
candy-if they held lucky number.
The chief says one person COM
planned to him that his child was TAX

while another citizen reported that his
child squandered $1.30 when sent to
the store to make family purchases.
These complaints had become so in

BISBEE-AJO ADVANCED

At a regular meeting of the Board of Directors of the Bisbee-Ajo Copper and Development company, held at their office in the City of Bisbee on the 22nd day of November, 1916, it was decided to withdraw all of the 25c stock from the market on the first day of December, 1916.
 On and after this date the Bisbee- Ajo Copper stock will be sold at this office and by the Company agents at not less than soc per share, the req sons for this advance are manyfold; First, the main shaft that is being sunk at this time has reached a depth of 90 it. still going through a heavy oxidized iron capping that is strongly mineraliZed that seems to cover the ore deposits, and we have every req son to believe that we should strike ore much earlier than we previously ex- pected. Second: We are now installing gas-engine hoist that will greatly expedite the sinking of this shaft. Third: We have also acquired IS addi- tional mining claims joining the New Cornelia and the Ajo Consolidated mines in Ajo. This ground has very good surface showing and is very valuable property. Fourth: This com pany has now 42 full mining claims, and for the above reasons the Con- pany decided to raise this stock to soc and the Company will not guar antee to fill any orders for stock at its present price.

A PROCLAMATION OF
 THANKSGIVING
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, STATE OF ARIZONA.

Since that memorable day in Amer ica's history when our ancestors fore gathered on the bleak shores of New England and there proclaimed their gratitude in unison to Almighty God for all those blessings providentially bestowed upon them it has been the custom of the American people to set apart annually a day for the rendering of thanks to the Creator in fitting re- lcognition of divine mercies and bene- factions. This custom, universally ap- proved, is properly perpetuated in the | State of Arizona and observance there i of is commended by law.
 It is particularly seemly that Ari zona's citizens should celebrate, in the present year, the annual day of l Thanksgiving, for harvests have been bountiful, and the pursuits of industry have been fruitful beyond compare. In other ways, also than those of merely material benefit the people of the State have been abundantly and providenti- ally favored.
 NOW, THEREFORE, 1, GEO. w. P. HUNT, Governor of Arizona, by virtue of the authority ir me vested, do pro- claim and set aside Thursday, Novem- Der 30th, 1916. as Thanksgiving Day. It is urgently recommended that on the day thus set apart. all the people of Arizona shall unite in giving rev erent thanks to God for the peace and prosperity which abide within our State, and for that faith in the under lying purpose of divinity which DOT tends the ultimate salvation of human ity.
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, 1 have
 hereunto set my hand and (SeaD caused the Great Seal of the
 State of Arizona to be affixed.
 Done at Phoenix, the Capital, this 24th day of November, A. D.. 1916.

 In raise No. 196 the progress for the month was A feet of which 15 feet was through crystalline limestone and the last 90 feet in mixed ledge matter and copper ore. This ore is contin- Iuation of the oxide ore found in cross cut 19 on the 2O0-foot level. The total height of this raise is 75 feet.
 Underground conditions continue satisfactory Ore shipments are go- inc forward at a rate slightly in ex. cess of $50 tons copper and 30 tons lead ore daily. DeveloDments during the month opened up promising lead nre-tearing territory between the 200 ana 3O0-foot levels in the Iron Prince claim on the south. The lead ore in this section is ruite silicious. but eX- nerimental work in fotation indicates that a material saving can be made in the concentration of these ores"
 Tn the Southwest claim, between the 200 and 100-foot levels. We con time to open up a continuation of the tig orebOdy previously develoDed in this section. The ore is a good grade of oxide showing percent copper. We have encountered the same orebo dy on the 100-foot level in crosscut and we expect to encounter the same ore in crosscut on the 100-foot level during the coming month.
 Promising territory is being devel- oped between the 800 and 600-foot levels in the Leo claim. In crosscut 76 on the 500-foot level some good streaks of hieh-erade oxide ore have heen found. We expect that future developments will open large ton maze of good ores in this section. A confirmation of the same territory is being opened uD in crosscuts 66 and 67 on the 600-foot level.

An Old Mans Stomach.

As we grow older and less active less and less food is required to meet the demands of our bodies. If too much is habitually taken, the stomach will rebel. When a man reaches the ad. vanced age of S5 or 90, you will find that he is light eater. Be as careful as you will, however, you will occa. sionally eat more than you should and will feel the need of Chamberlain's Tablets to correct the disorder. These tablets do not contain pepsin, but strengthen the stomach and enables it to perform its functions naturally. They also cause a gentle movement of the bowels. Advertisement
