80 MILES TO
 REPORT TO BOARD

A. Jenson, Earl Jackson and John Dobson, of Fredonia, hold the record for putting forth the greatest effort to serve Uncle Sam. They were noti- fled to appear before the local board here and to be ready to entrain for the cantonment camp Friday morn ing. As there was not time for them to make the trip by rail, they walked from Fredonia to Grand Canyon, a distance of 80 miles, crossed the can yon on the tram and took the train into Flagstaff, arriving here Tues day.
 All these men were examined by the local board at Kanab, Utah, with the result that Jackson and Dobson were exempted on account of thelr families while Jensen was accepted for military service. The local board here not knowing this certified them to the district board as not appearing, III IuIH tlS ulStIlSI DOdIu CcTLllleu them for service to the adjutant gen. erals office. They were then noti- fled to appear for service.
 In the mean time the local board had received the papers from the Ka- nab board and immediately took steps to have the two married men exempt ed which has been done. When the draft law was formed rules applying to large counties such as Coconino were not taken into consideration, therefore a hardship is liable to re- suit without intention on the part of the officials.
 The Fredonia boys were born and raised in Coconino county and up to this trip two of them had never vis- ited the county seat. They were all in good spirits after their hard trip and were perfectly willing to serve the country even though they had been exempted by the Kanab board.

Summary of Weather and Crop Con- ditions in Anzona for the Week Ending Tuesday, September IS, 1917.

Rains early in the week were ben eficial to ranges which are in fair to good condition. Cattle are as a rule in very good condition.
 The rains also revived large areas of beans and grain sorghums which were at standstill on account of dry weather.
 In the irrigated districts cotton picking, having and blowing for win ter grains continue. The rain was not favorable for cotton since any prolongation of tlle growing season at this time may endanger the top crop by frost.

Here It Is Again.

An American and a Highlander were walking one day on the top of Scotch mountain, when the Scotch man, wishing to impress the boastful cousin, produced famous echo to be heard in that place. When the echo returned clearly after nearly fcur minutes the proud Scotchman turning to the Yankee, exclaimed: There, mon, ye canna' show anything like that in your country"
 To which the latter replied: q guess we can better that some, stran- ger. Why, when I go to bed just lean out of the window and call out: Time to get up; wake upp and eight hours afterward the echo comes back and wakes me."-Exchange.

For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local reme dies and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced 1t incur able. Science has proven Catarrh to be constitutional disease, and therefore re- Quires constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure. manufactured by F. J.

Automatic Announcer.

G. Adolph Stenson has received
word from the United States patent
office at Washington that he has been
allowed a patent on his station and
street indicator" working plans of
which he submitted about six months
ago. The patent was granted Janu-
airy of this year, and gives the Co.
kato boy the exclusive right to the
principle involved.
AS with all practical inventions, the
mechanism is comparatively simple,
and contains but Is or 16 working
parts. It is intended to be used in
railway coaches and street cars to
act as a silent announcer of the next
stopping place. The frame contain
ing the mechanism will be placed at
the front of the vehicle, and the sta
ton or street name will be shown in
large letters behind the glass-cover-
ing opening in the indicator. 1t is in
tended that one frame and mechanism
be placed in each coach, and these to
be operated by the pull of lever in
the last coach, operating each indi-
Gator simultaneously.
Those who have seen the plans are
Of the opinion that Mr.. Stenson has
invented something worth while, and
that should meet with ready appro-
baton of railway officials. Mr.. STEM
SON has the plans at the Stenson groc-
cry, and will be pleased to show and
explain them to any one interested in
the matter.-Cokato Enterprise.
