the league disband at the present time,
without any attempt to start the sea-

Packets Today.

The Nogales Chapter OF the
Red Cross Association is work
ing efficiently and effectively
in the noble endeavors for which
that world wide organization
has been famed through years.
Several days each week the
ladies of the chapter gather at
the rooms of the Santa Cruz
Club, putting in the hours in
knitting, cutting and rolling
bandages, etc., and from time to
time they send forward boxes
of supplies. Tuesday OF the
present week the chapter sent
to the Supply Department in
San Francisco, three boxes OF
bandages and one box of knitted
garments, which will ge thence
direct to France.
Yesterday there were pre-
pared and packed for shipment
120 Christmas Comfort packets
to be forwarded today to each
and all of the men from Santa
Cruz County whose addresses
in the army are known.
Each packet contained to.

climated when the season opens,
and this seems to be q wise
move. This company have
brought in the best Herefords
they could buy in Missouri, and
the strains are entirely different
from any of their previous .pur-
chases, and they are also of
much higher breeding. Other
cattlemen are buying bulls and
in each case they are improving
on the breed. Arizona will soon
have as well-bred range cattle
as any in the Southwest. There
are many herds already bred
up, but within a short time all
herds will show the results of
the high-bred stock that has
been brought in and that are
being brought in this season.
"The bull is half the herd" is
an old saying. This is true if
he is only an a par with the fe-
males, but if he is superior to-
then he is more than half the
herd.

Batteries Freeze

Particular attention is callet
to the possibility of freezing i'm
properly charged storage bat
teries during the winter months
by Mr.. F. A. Kirkwood, the
Electrical Expert, in charge oi
Karns Bros, new electrical de.
partment.
While the water may not
evaporate as rapidly in the win
ter as at other times it is Just
as important to have the battery
tested and the specific gravity
ascertained at frequent inter-
vals.. The electrolyte will freeze
at temperatures varfing with
the amount of charge or in other
words the specific gravity.
For instance a fully charged
battery will test about 1895
specific gravity and would not
freeze above 40 degrees below
zero while one testing only HOO
would freeze at nearly the same
temperature as pure water.
10 remove the burden of this
care from the shoulders of the
owner Karns Bros, Inc. are
now equipped to treat all makes
OF batteries at any time free of

Bootleggers Beware (In Sonora

1t is reported that General 2.
Elias Gales, military command
er in and governor of Sonora,
has promulgated an edict COM
manding infliction of the death
penalty upon all taken in the
act of selling, manufacturing or
dealing in intoxicants. En-
forcement of that edict in two
or three cases would bring to a
complete and effective termina-
tion any traffic in ardent spirits.
In this connection it is related
that at Hermosillo the authori-
ties discovered in the residence
of a woman a complete plant for
manufacture of all kinds of
liquors from alcohol, of which
latter spirits there is available
an unlimited supply from the
sugar refineries in Sinaloa, that
being one of the by products of
the process of sugar manu-
facture. She had all the neces-
sary drugs and chemicals for
doctoring the alcohol, and pro-
duced whisky, brandy, gin, rum,
port wine, mescal, etc. And she
had bottles, labels and corks
with cork caps, so she could
produce almost any well known
rand of whisky, brandy or other
liquor.
The gentle lady was not at
all backward in her charges, it |
is related--generally putting up
on her wares a price of seven
dollars American money per
quart. A good story is told in
that connection of an American
known well in the capital city
of Sonora, who was suffering
from a severe cold, and he
thought dram or two might |
relieve his distress. So he ap-
piled to the lady for a bottle of
and she set the price at
$40. He remarked dryly that
1T would be cheaper to be sick
a Wh1le, and refrained from
the purchase.
While the proprietress of the
establishment mentioned was at
Nogales getting a new supply,
presumably, of some of her
stock) the authorities were put
wise to her establishment and
