cANTALoUPE FEDERATION
Formed of Valley Associations Who
Want Federal Inspection, Uni
form Pack and Crate

Formed OF valley Associations VINO
Want Federal Inspection, Uni
form Pack and Crate
The third meeting of the canta-
loupe growers interested in the
formation of federation was held
Saturday and was well attended,
delegates representing over half
the cantaloupe associations in the
valley being present. The asso-
Citations at Hawley, Manzanola,
Lafayette, Newdale. La Junta.
Las Animas and Melonfeld all
were represented and word was
received from Sc veral others that
they were in hearty accord with
the objects of the meeting. :
There were present at the meet
ing o. H. Blasingham, travelling
freight agent and Frank w.
Myers, division freight agent,
both of the Santa Fe and both of
whom spoke at the meeting.
Both men stated they are cogni-
zant of the fact that something
must be done to save the melon
industry of this part of the valley
and they assured the meeting that
the proposed federation was in
their opinion the right move, that
federal inspection and the preven-
tion of the shipments of unripe
cantaloupe must be hrot about
and that the Santa Fe company
would give the proposed fedora
ton all possible aid in the market
ing of their crops SO far as was in
their power. Mr.. Myers was closely
connected with the selling market
for a number of years and is con-
versaut with that end of the can
taloupe industry.
1t was unanimously voted to
federate for the federal inspection
of the fruit and for 9 uniform pack
and crate. As some of the assoc
iations have already contracted
with commission men it will not be
compulsory that the federation
ship its own melons but their is a
number who will go the limit and
attend to their own marketing.
A constitution and bylaws were
adopted and all the associations in
the valley will be asked to elect a
director of the federation to repre-
sent them as a member of the
board of directors of the fedora
ton when the next meeting is
held, Feb. 26th.
A committee consisting of o. j.
Baxter, j. o. Wood and j. NJ.
Shaulis was appointed to draft
bill to be presented TO the COLI
gressman from this district and
the Colorado delegation asking
congress for the federal inspection
of cantaloupes and some provision
whereby the law can be made eff
fective this year.
Since it has been clearly proven
that saving to the grower of from
10 to at least 15 per cent can be
made by the federation in the
matter of materials, shipping, SELL
ing and the attendant increase in
prices, an active campaign will be
made to induce every grower not
signed up for the season, to join
the federation. A new association
of growers is being talked of to be
composed Of those who believe
that the federation can do their
own marketing and the movement
is growing rapidly.
A Word to Cantaloupe Growers

Melon Growers association, which
last week entered into a contract

PHYSICAL EXAMINATION WILL
 PROBABLY CONCLUDE TO-DAY

Little Rock, July 22.-It is probable
 that the physical examination of the Arkansas National Guard will be con- cluded this evening. The active re- cruiting of the companies has com menced, and the officers appointed for that purpose will be assigned to posts in various parts of the state. The
 percentage of rejections has con- tinued through all the companies, from 33 to 50 per cent of the total en- listments. Not more than two or three companies out of the twenty four have even peace strength, and it will require hard work to secure enough men to fill'the depleted ranks.

I'D ANNOUCE NEW
 PLAN VERY SOON
Saturday or Monday Plan of Procedure in Mexican Situa- ton Probably Be Made Public Consider Three Points.

Washington, July 21.-Official an- nouncement of the course to be fol- lowed in seeking peaceful solution of the problems arising from border conditions probably will be either to- morrow or early next week 1t ap- peared certain that the Washington government was prepared to accept the commission plan proposed by Car ranza in his note of July II, but there are indications that President Wilson would prefer more far reach ing discussion than this suggestion offered.
 Acting Secretary Polk conferred again with Eliseo Arredondo. Ap- parently acceptance of the commis- sion plan is awaiting General Car ranza's reply to the amendment sug- gested by the Washington govern ment Mr. Polk men all inquiries to- day with the statement negotiations were progressing favorably.
 The note of July II would limit the proposed commission to discussion of three specific points-wthdrawal of American troops from Mexico, ar rangement for a reciprocal agreement under which troops of either govern ment might cross the border, and in vestigation of bandit raids on Ameri- can towns to determine what interest prompted them.
 While it now is certain the Wash ington government has no objection 10 any of these questions, there have been intimations that President Will son hoped much greater results could be accomplished toward restoration of tranquility and stable government ;n Mexico than this limited field would permit, for that reason it was in- ferred that the present effort of Mir. Polk probably was directed toward widening of the commissions activi- ties, and Mir. Carranza's answer on this suggestion must be received be- lore final decision could be reached.

STRIKE CALLED AT
 BAUXITE YESTERDAY
Intellectual Effort for Several Days to Adjust the Differen- ces-Threatened Before But Settled by Commissioner.

Little Rock, July 22.-A strike was 'called at Bauxite yesterday, after an intellectual effort had been made for several days to adjust the differences between the men and the company.
 The president of the Union, Roy Pettus, notified Labor Commissioner J. C. Clary that every man, union and non-union, had thrown down his tools and quit work. There are 490 mem bers of the union, recently organized, and about two hundred non-union men.
 Several weeks ago a strike was threatened, but it was settled at that time by the company agreeing to recognize the union, and not to dis terminate against workmen because iof their membership in the union. It lis charged, however, that since that time large number of men nave been discharged, all of whom were members of the union. It is said there were about fifty in all, but the cases of only six were taken up by Mr. Clary in an effort to adjust the grievance.
 Hearings were held several days this week before MT. Clary, each side being represented by attorneys. The company claimed that it had abided strictly by it's agreement, that there had been no discrimination on account of union membership, and that no em- ploye had been discharged without cause. The company refused emphati- cally to reinstate the men who had been discharged, and the entire force thereupon walked out.
 Bauxite is the site of the largest aluminium ore plant in the United States, and is very valuable prop erty.

VAST FORCE lS EM-
 PLOYED IN ATTACKS
Berlin Statement Regarding En- tente Offensive Declares Two Hundred Thousand Men Used Take Verdun Troops.

London, July 21.-Some idea of the huge forces now engaged in the battle of the Somme, in Northern France, is given in the statement from Berlin in which it is stated that more than 100000 French and British troops attacked the German lines Thursday on a front of 27 miles. To- days news from the battle-ground which had been contested bitterly since July l, shows no great change in the relative positions of the enemy.
 The British again have pressed for ward to the German third line in the ForeauX Wood, northeast of Longue- val. This wood is an important stra- tegic point, the capture of which would bring the British to the highest point on the ridge commanding the German positions in less high coun- try, beyond which is not much broken up and not wooded, lending itself not so well to defense. This probably ex- plains the desperate attempts of the Germans to hold the ground where the heavy fighting continues.
 The Associated Press states that the Germans are bringing masses of troops from Verdun and guns from other points in an endeavor to stem the allied advance Meantime the indications are that the allies are testing the strength of the German line at other points. The French raid by Australian troops in the neighborhood of Armentieres at tracts much interest in this connec- tion.

COMMISSIONS WILL BE
 DATED JAN. 1, loI6
Disposition in Some Quarters to Confuse Public Mind With Reference to Time Elected Officers in Nov. Take Oath.

Little Rock, July 22.-There still seems to be a disposition in some quarters to confuse the public mind with reference to the time when the county and statutory state officers who are to be elected in November take their oath and assume their offices.
 Secretary of State Hodges, when his attention was called to a state ment being published that they will take their office before Jan. 1. re- lterated the statement previously made that the commissions will all be dated Jan. 1, 1917. That will be nearly two months after the election. just as it is now. There is no law fixing the date, but Mr. Hodges says that all agree it should be uniform for all counties, and that 90 per cent of those from whom he has heard an expression say that Jan. 1 will be sat isfactory. To permit officers to oual- fly as soon as the election commis- sioners certify their election would be to produce untold confusion. To fix Jan. l as the uniform date can do no injustice to the incoming officials, since they will have two years any way, and unavoidably it will give the incumbent officials two months more that they would otherwise serve.
