BIG STRIKE IS ENDED.

The Clifton Morenci' strike, which has tied up one of Ariz- ona's richest mining districts and thrown more than 5000 men out of employment since September. II, is at an end. At meetings held early this week in Clifton, Morenci and Metcalf, the strik- CTS voted unanimously to get back to work under the terms of fered by the mine managers Jan- uary 8. This means that the sliding wage scale will be ex- tended to cover 24-cent copper and that the managers will meet with grievance committee every thirty days. The Duncan re- fugees are to return to work on the same basis. No union is re- cognized. The charters held by the strikers in the Western Fed eration of Miners were surrend- ed three weeks ago.
 When informed that the strik- CTS had decided to go back to work, Norman Carmichael, gen. eral manager of the Arizona Copper company, said:
 We were determined that the Western Federation of Miners and it's influence should be elim- mated from the district. We shall now treat with the men in a broad spirit"

Sweet Clover New
North Dakota Crop

Grand Forks, Feb. 22.-Probably no
announcement of new crop for North
Dakota has awakened so much wide
interest in the state as the informa-
ton concerning sweet clover, which
has been worked out in Grand Forks
county. The reason for this is simple.
Sweet clover may be grown upon the
poorer lands of our state. 1t can be
grown upon alkali lands and it's use
upon the cheaper farm lands of North
Dakota and it's utilization in feeding to
cattle will bring millions Of new dol
lars to North Dakota farmers in the
next few years.
Sweet clover will probably become
the best pasture crop that the state
can raise and when the former has
found how to use this crop he will be
an enthusiastic supporter of it. Sweet
clover must be pastured before it
grows too high, as the plant becomes
woody when it is older. If used at the
proper time cattle will eat it as readily
as they do ordinary red clover.
A booklet upon this new crop has
been prepared by North Dakota farmer
experts. This booklet tells of the new
crop, where it will grow, how to plant
and tend it, and what use to make of
the crop. 1t also discusses the seed
and seeding problems. North Dakota
farmers interested in sweet clover can
obtain copy of this booklet without
charge by addressing the North Da-
kota Development League Press
Bureau, G.. w. Graves, secretary, Grand
Forks, N. D.
