WILSON TOINDORSE
SOME OF POPE'S PLANS

Washington, Aug. 27-President
Wilson in replying to Pope Benedict's
peace proposals. it is understood, will
indorse unreservedly some of the basic
features of the Pope's plan. The fun
damental idea of making guarantee
against future war a preliminary to
peace agreements will probably be
seized upon by the president as cor
nerstone, for peace negotiations when
ever they come before the United
States and the Entente Allies.

Of rs per cent in the rate of gaining.
The object in feeding is to put on fat
as rapidly and with as little grain as
possible. A method which will in
crease the rate of gaining % per cent
and at the same time decrease by s
per cent the grain required to pro-
duce unit of gain is certainly worthy
of consideration.

FATTENING PIGS.
Finish Them With the Self-Feeder
and Save Grain-Fat Must Be
Put on Repidly.

There is no advantage in skimping
the pig when it comes time to fatten
him, the United States Department of
Agriculture points out. During the
growing period of his life, pastures
with little grain were in order, for
scale and constitution were the main
objects to be obtained. The last few
weeks before butchering the idea is
to lay on a good covering of fat, tC
increase the proportion Of high priced
lard, and to add tenderness an6
palatability to the meat. A fat hog
sells to much better advantage on the
market for these very reasons.
To add this fat rapidly and mos
economically. we must feed an abund
ance of grain. The self-feeder is sim
ply a device to keep before the pigs {
constant supply of feed, in order tina
they may eat of such feeds in sucl
quantities as they desire.

Results Obtained With self-Feeder


A brief resume of results obtained
by experiments with over 275 hogs,
parts of them settled and the bal
ance hand fed in the best possible
manner, shows:
First, that in comparison with the
handled pigs, the settled pigs ate
grain 10 per cent more rapidly;
Second, that they gained weight %
per cent more rapidly;
And last, that they consumed only
| 90 per cent as much grain in gaining
| 100 pounds
| This shows three very definite ad-
vantages in the use of the self-feeder
Pigs fed in this manner will eat more
grain per day than under any other
method of feeding This maximum
consumption is not wasteful of gain

BURY DIFFERENCES
 E PLEA IN LABOR
 DAY PROCLAMATION

Labor day has hitherto been a day set apart for organized labor. It is something more than that this year, as Governor Campbell denotes in his proclamation issued yesterday for Labor day, September g. Whatever the interests of labor have been in the past and however much dissociated from the interests of the rest of the community, this year and this tune all have a common interest The proclama of the governor follows:
 Following the custom which sets the first Monday of each September, as a day upon which labor may be commemorated by means of parades, meetings festivals and other man.fes tations of respect and honor to it's dignity and accomplishments for the benefit and advancement of mankind:
 I. Thomas E. Campbell, governor of Arizona, under the authority in me thus reposed, do hereby declare and proclaim as legal holiday, Monday September the third, nineteen seven teen to be duly celebrated as afore- time.
 In this most critical hour in the history of the United States and the civilized world, the hopes and fears of  humanity center inevitably upon the attitude of the forces of labor toward the achievement of that highest standard of efficiency, without which victory is impossible.
 Therefore, this day affords a most fitting and timely opportunity to take stock of the resources of brain and hand, to consider unselfishly how best we can substantially evidence our un- failing support to those who will, al that very time, be mobilized to dc battle for those principles of liberty equality, and fraternity which have blessed American labor and borne il upward to it's present mighty status
 Arizona s responsibility to do her part in the present eXigency lies equally upon every member of oul citizenship. Shall we not bury sucf differences as molest our present in dustrial progress, upJn which SC vitally depends the success of the con

CROPS OF COUNTIES
 PIMA AND P|NAL

The Arizona State Council of De- fense are completing crop census map of Pima and Pinal county and will have the total acreage of both charted and mapped by the end of the month.
 j. F. Sellers of the state council and w. w. Pickrell have just returned from an extensive trip through both counties and have a large corps of as- sistants gathering the data on all crops, cattle, livestock, poultry and machinery and report a very satisfac- tory condition.
 MT. Sellers received several charts from the county assistants in Pinal county and is now transferring this data to the large county map being mapped at the state house. This map will be about the same size as that made for Maricopa county, the acreage of course will be less, but the crops will show as great a diversity as those grown in the Salt River valley
 Meetings will be held this week end. within close range of Tucson, at which time MT Sellers will explain the meth- ods used at this time to secure this data and what it will be used for
 All farmers of Pinal and Pima coun- ties are urged to return the blanks sent them by County Farm Advisor w. ". Pickrell. If any farmers of either county have not received blanks they should write to their county agent at once. This information being secured is for the farmers benefit and all who fail to fill in blanks at this time will regret later on if they are refused as- sistance as this is the only method available for finding out what the re- quirements of the farmer are likely to be fo: the coming year.
 MT. Pickrell spent several days in Phoenix this past week in interest of this crop census and will return the latter part of the week to finish both counties Mir. Picsrell is a graduate of the University of Arizona and leaves shortly for France, giving up his val uable work as agricultural expert of the University and enlisting as a pri- vate to serve his country. He leaves the 5th of Sept. for training camp. Prof. Taylor of the extension service has not decided who will fill this po- sition until all the draft has been finished.

with that before the declaration of war by the United States, IS wholly different. Prior to that time the Amer ican Red Cross had to be neutral, whereas the various relief oreaniza- tions were under no such obligation. With our entry into the war. the Red Cross became free to exert itself in any way which, within the scope of it's general activities, might aid our allies and allied people
 We earnestly hope that no one will feel that the Red Cross desires to do anything but help. The Red Cross is an American institution, chartered by the United States government, and the President of the United States is it's president The organization belongs to the American reople and seeks in this world emergency to do nothing more and nothing less than to coordinate the generosity and the effort of our people toward achieving a supreme aim"

BABBITT- POISON
 NEEDED MORE SPACE

The Republican erred last Sunday by saying that the Babbitt- Poison company was trying to put over deal with the Rorderland Motor com pany ever since the Borderland com pany was organized last spring.
 The facts in the case are that the negotiations have been on only, for about three weeks. The sreasons for negotiations were that the Rabbitt- Poison people found it necessary to have more show room and the beauti- full store room of the Borderland ar pealed to them and also the fine qual- ity of cars carried by the Borderland.
 As q result of the deal the Babbitt- Poison company becomes the largest automobile concern in the southwest In fact it is doubtful if any other sim liar concern in the United States car ries such a variety of high class motor vehicles as they now have through this combination.

 While wispy, gray, faded hair Is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur. no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly: You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and. after an- other application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy. soft and luxuriant.
