TAKE MORE MILK;
 LAT LESS MEAT

The following bulletin, urging that more milk be drunk, has been issued by the department of public health of the American Museum of Natural History: g
 The American people on the whole. eat far more meat than is good for them and this habit is a serious dan ger now that the war crisis has made the food needs of the world so acute.
 Do you know that when cattle are fed for the market upon grains five sixths of the food value of the grains is wasted and only one sixth retained in the meat?
 Milk. on the other hand, is a far more economical food than meat, and a far more wholesome one, since it supplies the various food elements in just the right proportion and also valuable elements, such as lime, which are lacking from many dietaries.
 Careful studies of diets in New York city have shown that the amount of milk purchased should average at least one third of a quart of milk per per son per day, if the needs of the body are to be met. For those who would economize-and it is the duty of every loyal American to economize this summer Professor Graham Lusk o1

MOSQUITOES TAKE
 B|G TOLL IF DEATH
(From the Kansas City Times)

The malaria bearing mosquito is a really dangerous enemy in the Pal kans. Last year the allied troops did not realize what the Macedonian mos quito can do, apparently. They were not prepared In consequences. fully one-half of their strength was out of action, because of malaria, says Her bert Corey in the National Geographic Magazine. During one period more men were in valided home than arrived on ships heard of battalions with 75 per cent of their men on their backs, and of companies in which only five men were fit for duty. The well men groaned in their dugouts, but the sick men responded to call when attacks were made.
 Even in the midst of winter one saw yellow faced men faltering along the Monastir road toward some nearby hospital It often took them a day to cover five miles. At night they some times slept in the mud, wrapped in blankets that had been soaked by the days rain They did not complain. What was the use? Conditions have improved for future campaigns. There will be malaria, of course.
 There will always be malaria here until Macedonia is drained and oiled. Panama fashion. But the doctors are learning how to treat it and the equip ment of prevention nas become most formidable. Men now wear mosquito gloves and masks and neck covers, and sleep in nets inside tents that have been made mosquito safe.

REGULAR ADVISES
 NATIONAL GUARD
Army and Navy Journal.)

(Army and Navy Journal)
 'It seems to me" remarked an of ficer of lang experience, that little friendly. earnest advlce to our national guard units would be strictly in order at this time. The members of the for mer state regiments are peculiarly placed in the great organization which is to include all our forces. They will have a major place in the thoughts of the general public which always has ignored except in the most abstract way, the existence of regular army. Unless things go wrong the guard will be over the water and in the midst of things before the registered lads have mastered the intricacies of extended field maneuvers. And-without dwell ing on the justice of it-you can bet that Company o of Podunk will be mentioned oftener in the press stories than any similar unit of Pershing' S boys. For this reason and others, l would say to our guardsmen:
 "The national guard will soon be en- gagged in one of the largest and most difficult undertakings, in a military way, that has been attempted in this country since the Civil War That is your mobilization at camps, transfer to the coast, embarkation and crossing. Things should move with comparative smoothness if every man jack of you from brigadier to rear file private, takes advantage of the experience gained in the mobilization of last year.
 "The officers of the regular army have collected, collated and studied every bit of data resulting from that dismal experience and. adding the fin

HONEY DEW MELON
 NEW VALLEY STAPLE

Local produce men are shipping for the flrt time the honey dew melon this season This melon. while raised in the valley before, never became a com- mercial proposition until this year. So successful has been its culture this year that 1t will take it's place as one or the staple shippers from the valley, say -nwers and produce men.
 Efforts in the past have been made to raise the cassaba melon, to fill in after the cantaloup crop is harvested but the cassaba melon has never done well here. especially as a commercial proposition. Now with the perfection of culture of the honey dew melon to the point where it cansbe considered a commercial melon for this valley, it's culture on large scale is assured. The melon, equal in size to the cassaba, is much more luscious, sweet as sugar." say those who are eating them. The produce men yesterday were shipping the honey dew melon and quoting prices to the trade in outside points at S1.OO to SIPS crate. A crate holds from ten to twelve melons.
 The honey dew melon. raised in Colorado with great success, is said to have brought as high as $1 each in New York. The beauty of the melon is that it can be picked when not just ripe, and in cosequence can be shipped q long ways or kept for a long time, before spelling. The shipment of the honey dew melon from the Salt River valley marks the beginning of a new commercial crop here, and will in the future fill in a period of the summer that usually is wholly void of ship ments to outside points. After the cantaloups go out, fruit shipments are at a standstill until the grapes get ready, and then the oranges.

 Forest Ranger Russell, who has charge of the station on the Bridger forest, recently returned from trip into the range. MT. Russell reports an average depth of snow in the re- zion of Silver Lake of three feet yet remaining on the ground and that Silver Lake is still frozen over. Huge drifts of snow not less than twenty feet in depth were ridden over horse back on the way in and out. The sheep range occupied in July in pre- vious years will not be accessible this year, it is thought, until August.
 Cattlemen have not been able to get on to the high range this summer with their stock on account of the depth of snow remaining in tn ehills. No doubt there will be quantity of snow remaining on the high range until snow falls again, notwithstanding the unusual heat

 q. Don't distrust the regular army. The old time differences have faded to some extent, but we all know that some traces remain. Unfortunately these traces are most apparent in the higher circles of your officers. Get rid of it; determine to have faith in General Skilled Experience;' realize that wheI,

 '3 Take care of yourself. That may seem a funny piece of advice; but if. in addition to obeying orders, each of you enlisted men will be careful of your health and habits; be cleanly in person, clothing, in camp and cars and ship, the already low death rate from preventable camp disease will disap- pear and your military value as a unit will be doubled"

SCHOOL OPENING PUT :, 0FF UNTIL SEPT. '

MESA, Aug. 26.-It has been decided to postpone the opening of the Mesa schools from September 10 to Septem- Der IT. Superintendent Matthews states that the change is made for two reasons. First, because it is not as yet definitely known how many, If any, of the faculty will be called to war. This will be settled by tho date now set for school to begin. The second reason is that this plan will conform to the date of the opening of all the other schools in the valley.

 1543 MILE TRIP

Mark Hindman who with five pass engers, arrived in Phoenix during the past week, gives the following account of the trip:
 We left Weiser, Idaho on the twen- ty-fifth of July. over the Arrowhead Trail and it is certainly well named, for it is nothing more than a trail. In many places we had to gather rocks and build our own roads, due to the washes we encountered.
 Our trip took us through Utah, Ne vada, California, and Arizona. arriving via the Parker Cutoff. which by the way was the very best road of the en- tire trip. From the number of com plaints you hear from the people pass ing over this Parker Road, you can get a good idea of what the road con- ditions for the rest of the trip must have been.
 we carried six passengers besides about five hundred pounds Of luggage in our five passenger Mitchell Junior, but even with this overload our car never faltered, in fact, we had so much excess power that I honestly think we could climb tree with this machlne II the bark wouldn't slip. There are a number of very bad hills on the way but with all of that we never boiled the water in the radiator.
 "No trouble of any kind was encoun- tered, except one blowout, which was due to a stone bruise. We covered distance of 1543 miles. and covered 1t in fourteen days, for while we were twenty three days on the road, we spent nine of them visiting different places on the road.

THE FOOD PROBLEM

In a measure we know what the con-
serEation and control Of the food re-
sources means. but there is something
indefinite about the whole problem
thht is puzzling to the ordinary mind.
At best there has been great deal OF
misleading optimism sowed by gov
eminent officials and other enthusi-
asts. Many, very many, have been
led to believe that with. food conser-
vatpn in full operation that the cost
Of food will come down. The present
theories that obtain in food admins
trative circles do not seem to be hay
ing any effect on the actual conditions.
It ;is true the price Of wheat has been
fixed for the benefit Of the producer,
but we have heard OF no action being
taken about fixing the price OF -four.
There was a great hurrah for a
while for the scent loaf. and now We
are told with wheat at S2.20 it is i'm
possible. 1t would seem that there
would be a much more satisfactory
adjustment Of the situation if some
thing was done to control retail prices.
Fixing the wholesale price Of food
stuts and letting the retailer have a
free hand Is Of no advantage to the
consumer who has to pay the bills. It
Is the excessive prices the people are
compelled to pay that they are COM
planning about. and it would seem that
some attention should be paid TO their
grievances and not so much concern
be- wasted on production. And in the
nnal accounting 1t would appear that
proper distribution OF food would
count for as much as production, but
ve hear little or nothing about the eff.
feetive distribution OF supplies.

Gently: the same lie was spread before
the German people by the new Chan

"The Russian mobilization was the

undeniable truth which all historians

German mobilization took place before
tho Russian mobilization, and this is
undeniably proved by German docu-
ments.
The Kaiser's letter. the official Ber-
