I. R. BRANDT Dies
IN FL PkSO FROM
EFFECTS OF WOUNDS
Cashier of First National Bank
Succumbs After Six Weeks
of Suffering. No Arrange
ments NJ a d e f for Funeral
Services So Far.

Advices were received here yester
day of the death of T. r. Brandt, at FL
Paso at late hour on Monday night.
Mr.. Brandt, who was taken to Hotel
Dieu fog opera ion from Tombstone, at
first was greatly improved, but after
the last operation began sinking. His
condition was such last Saturday that
his youngest son, Bradford, was sent
for and left at once for the DeGsfue al
his father. His wife and three child
rem were with him at the time OF his
death. 1t viii be remembered that
Mr. Brandt was shot in Tombstone ~
Fred Koch on the Bird of Nove.-uo.
when Koch tried to hold up the bank.
He was first brought to the Copper
Queen hospital and one operation
performed to see if the intestines had
been perforated. After he had recov-
cred from this operation he was taken
to Tombstone, where ne again became
worse and he was taken to FL Paso,
where one of his kidneys was rcriuv-
ed, as it had been torn by the bullet
in its passage. From this operation
he rallied and the third one was per-
formed to remove the bullet from its
Judgment against the spinal cord. AT
ter the opera ion he seemed to rally
for a day or so, but relapse set in
and death came % end his suffering.
He made a game fight for his life, anu
but few men would have stood the
chnol- oyd onaratiNpc fbof ho did
Mr.. Brandt was one of the early set
tiers in the northern part of Cochise
county and conducted small store
at San Simon in the eighties. He moved
TO Tombstone and became interested
in the First National bank and
other enterprises in tina. city. He
was well liked by all who came in con-
tact with him and has hosts OF friends
in the southwest who will regret to
hear of his death, although it has been
expected ever since he received the
wounds last month.
No word has been received as yet as
to where the funeral services viii be
held. Advices were expected in Tom
stone last night, but up until IL o'clock
no word had been received there as
to what plans had been made.
Koch, who entered plea of guilty
to the charge of assault with intent
to commit murder. and was sentenced
in the superior court in Tombstone
last Thursday to serve not less than
25 years, will now be tried for muir
der. He was still being held in the
county jail a. Tombstone pending an
investigation by the authorities OF the
statement that he made at the time OF
his sentence, involving one d. d.
Williams, a rancher living near
Gleason. The order of sentence and
plea will be vacated and he will now
be placed on trial for murder. The
punishment viii be life Imprisonment.

STOCK SHIPMENTS
ARE NOW REGULATED

The Ell Paso & Southwestern rail-
road on Monday announced receipt of
following from the chairman of
the southern department special
committee on national defense.
Beginning Monday, December 10,
all shipments of livestock. into the
Chicago market will be stabilized in
accordance with 4 plan recently sug-
gested by the railroad war board
The old plan allowed unrestricted ship
ments of livestock and heavy ship
ments of cattle would arrive in Chi
cago on one or two days of the week
and light consignments during The re-
mainder. To avoid all the unCe-
sirable results of this custom, what
is called the zcne system OF snip
ments was evolved and will govern
all shipments on and after December
10. Under this plan, within a zone
OF approximately 300 miles of chi
chaso, livestock will be received Ior
shipment to reach the Chicago mar
ket only on Tuesday, Thursday, Fri
day or Saturday.
Within the second zone beyond
800 miles from Chicago and I'D 10 Sc
hour limit, for shipments of livestock,
Shipments will be received to reach
the Chicago market on Monday, we'd
nesday, Friday or Saturday; the third
zone embraces all territory outside
of the 36 hour limit from Chicago
and from this zone shipments of live
stock may be made at any time 10
reach the Chicago market on any
week day.
1T is probable that this system will
be extended wi n necessary moGIrica-

nearer I get to the heart Of the great
food producing areas Of the United
States, in my tour of the country's
vital food centers, the more optimis:
tic I become about the entire food
situation-the more certain? that
America will be able not only to feed
herself, but to send our allies all the
food for which ships can be found.
Here is concrete example. -.
You have all heard how the winter
wheat crop Of Kansas and Nebraska
was ruined as result Of the ex-
tremely light snowfall Of last winter.
The report of the widespread failure
issued by the agricultural depart
ment stunned the American people
and started little regiments of
"glooms" parading in every city in
the land. It sent the price Of wheat
sky-rocketing.
To the average American citizen
this report of winter wheat failure in
the great grain belt meant that these
States would produce only a little
food this year. The millions and
millions of bushels Of winter wheat
destroyed were counted an absolute
loss, and substracted from the vail
able supplies for next year.
Very few people stopped to think
that destruction of this winter wheat
was not total loss, but will be large
ly offset by the production of other
crops on land that was planted in

Best informed agricultural, author:
tiles agree that although Kansas will
produce less wheat, than usual, hel
total production. Of food products
will be almost normal. i!'". ,'.,~
Practically every acre on which
winter wheat was killed is planted in
corn, rye, beans; potatoes or: other
foodstuffs. If there is going to be
winter wheat failure it is apparent
early enough to permit plowing un.
der and replanting. d. l. -
Thousands Of acres on which win
ter, wheat was killed have been plant.
ed in spring wheat, which will yield
just as much to the acre, though not
so fine a quality. .s.. e..
Another cheering fact should also
be taken into account-much land on
which wheat had been planted really
need rotation Of crops, but expecta-
ton of high prices induced the far
mer to plant wheat regardless. Now
this land, greatly to its benefit, will
be planted in beans, and other soil
renewing plants.

from now until harvest, we are 60
ing to have all the corn and rye
bread we need.
