BULLETINS FROM COMPANY C

Douglas. Ariz., Oct. IL 1916.
We detrained at our new camp
about ; O'Clock last night We are
encamped just back of the Calumet
and Arizona copper smelter. on the
ground occupied a short time ago by
the Montana troops. The lateness of
our arrival made II necessary to
pitch our tents in the dark. But our
tents were up. and we were all in
bed by nine o'clock.
Mountains surround us but at con-
siderable distance. Mesquite. brown
grass and cactus make feeble effort
to grace the barren earth.
The notorious border is just back
of our camp. To the southwark we
can see. also in the haze. the noun
tsins OF Mexico.

Douglas. Ariz.. oct. IS, 1916.
We have settled down TO the rou-
tine of camp life once more. Tomor-
row. work begins.
The camp here is. in some res
poets. an improvement over the camp
at Rife Range. We have a covered
mess hall. And We have warm water
for bathing, Just think OF that,
The country is fat and barren. The
only vegetation in the whole camp
is a soap weed or Spanish Bayonet,
about six feet high. Low. irregular
mountains surround US. but at dis
tance which softels their ruggedness
and makes them look like clouds at
dusk.
Douglas lies about two miles from
camp. A street car runs to the city
each half hour. The fare is hve
cents each way. At present only ten
per cent OF the company is allowed
on pass at one time. This gives
each man a trip to town about every
ten days.
DOC" Rowe and made our first
trip to Douglas last night. l started
out with two bundles OF laundry
which careiessiy left lying in the
station when I boarded the car. We
passed an outbound street car. The
conductor held his car while I ar
ranged with the conductor of the 9TH
er car to bring my packages to me.
met him at the terminal an hour
later and received them much to
my surprise. [ gave him a quarter
for his trouble
Douglas is an interesting place.
There are several good stores. q
small library. a splendid Elks club. a
fine Y. NJ. L. A. building and seve-
raj good churches. There is a red
light section. and booze seems to be
easily ohtainable. The motormai
of the car which took us TO town call
ed doc and me back just as we step
ped of the car platform and said:
Are you the fellows who were
asking about that booze?"
Doe. said. mo. we weren't ask
ing about it."
But our friend proceeded to direct
US to n blind tiger. And DOC" and
now know where we can quench our
thirst when we hit town.
Two lines of patrols guard the bor-
der day and night. Surprise is i'm
possible now. But can't guess
what We would do should villa take
a notion to pay us a call. There isn't
a round of ammunition in camp!

Comfy Agent Work.

Through development of improv-
ed organization and the growth of
a more definite project system the
ONCE of Extension Work in the North
and West carried its demonstration
activities into closer relation to the
practical needs of the farmers OF the
region during the pastoyear, accord
ing to the annual report of the States
Relations Service of the department.
LEGAL associations of farmers took
a greater part in the work and more
attention was devoted to studies of
LEGAL economic facts upon which TO
develop demonstrations of permanent
value. Extension work in the spe-
cial interests of farm women was UNI
dertaken in the territory under the
Office, and number of women agents
were placed in the field.
Among the specific results from
the county-agent work of the Office
of Extension Work In the North AMI
West during the year were:
Yields OF corn in fields managed
as demonstrations under supervision
of t.ie county agents increased on an
average 1913 bushels per acre over
the average yields for the region.
Yields of wheat in fields managed
as demonstrations increased ga bush
els per acre.
Yield of oats in fields managed as
demonstrations increased 11.7 bush
els per acre.
Alfalfa was introduced on 1911
Several score registered stations
and rams and several hundred reg
istered bulls and bears were placed
on farms.
Nearly thousand fine bulls no
longer useful in their communities
because of danger of inbreeding were
saved from the block and transferr-
ed to other communities.
One hundred and forty-three cow
testing associations, 80 livestock
breeding associations, and 142 hog
cholera control associations were or
ganized.
More than 200, 900 hogs were vac

PAPER TROUBLE UNsOLvED
Trade Board proposes That Large
Share With Small Publisher.

Washington, Dec. 15.-A conflict
of interest between large and small
newspaper publishers developed at
conferences today between the Fed
eral Trade Commission, the publish
ors and news-print paper manufac-
turers and jobbers, held to consider
Q proposal that the problem of an ap-
parent news-print shortage be solved
by distribution of the available sup
ply under supervision of the commits
sion and to work out some arrange
ment, If possible. concerning prices
and increased production.
a plan proposed and apparently
favored by the Trade Commission.
the manufacturers and the small
publishers, under which large pub
fishers would relinquish five per cent
OF their 1917 quota to the smaller
publishers, met with immedite oppo-
sition. The large publishers declar-
ed they were being made the victims
OF manufacturers, who, by diyerting
machines now on wall paper and
wrapping paper back to making news
print, could solve the shortage prob
lem within a few days. Both large
and small publishers insisted that the
plan called for. no concessions by the
manufacturers.
The plan proposed would provide
that the Eve per cent turned back by
the large establishments would be
appoFtioned among the small pub
fishers at the average contract price
charged the large publishers. This
would be between and A cents
pound. The jobber would receive
ln addition about per cent for hand
ling.
Committees of the publishers,
manufacturers and jobbers were nam
cd to continue conferences with the
Trade Commission next week in an
effort either to perfect the plan pro-
posed or to work out some other
acceptable plan. The Publishers
Committee will begin Monday to send
out missionaries to the newspapers.
