WILL TRY W|nTER|NG
 SHEEP IN COCON|NO

F. A. Boulin has purchased 1000 head of sheep which he will run for the summer on a 10000 acre allotment which he has secured near his farm in Red Lake Valley. After runn- ing the sheep for the summer on this summer range, he plans to keep a part of them here to try the experiment of winter ing them on the mountain. He will plant his farm this summer to forage crops for the purpose of providing winter feed for the sheep, and if the season proves as good as it now prom ises, he should be able to pro- vide abundant feed for the winter.
 To begin with MT. Boulin will put out a large acreage of corn silage, and smaller acre age of oats and COW peas togive variety to the sheeps' winter forage. To take care of the sil- age corn, he will erect an 80 ton silo, which he thinks he should be able to fill this season with good succulent corn.
 MT. Boulin will erect large barn to shelter the sheep dur ing the cold winter weather, and adjoining this he will erect a long low shed to provide a l runway for the sheep to exer- else in. He figures that he should not have to rely solely upon feeding, for more than four months during the severer part of the winter, and that after that he should be able to l run them on the range a part of the time until the summer grazing season opens. He would expect to depend parti- ally upon his silage for as much | as eight months.
 MT. Boulin firmly believes that by this method he will avoid the loss attendant upon moving the sheep south for winter, that he will secure a larger percentage of lambs, and that the wool will be much finer quality due to the sheep remaining in a cold climate and being fed. He would be saved the expenses attendant upon moving the sheep south and boarding his herders there dur ing the winter, also.
 MT. Boulin admits that his plan is an experiment, but he is confident that it will pay big. He expects to keep but about 250 of the sheep on the mount ain next winter, but will expect to keep all of them here an-

FALSE ALARM!
Citizens of The Valley Badly Frightened by Report of Mexican Raid

The Buckeye and Arlington
 Valley were thrown into an un-
 usual state of excitement last
 Monday evening on receipt of
 a telephone message from Sher-
 if Wilkey to the effect that a
 band of Mexicans had raided a
 ranch about four miles north of
 Gila Bend and were headed toward the Buckeye Valley.
 Constable Jay Jones and others immediately got busy and in an
 incdredibly short time had rais-
 ed three or four posses and had them stationed at advantageous
 points south of the river, as far down as Arlington. About seven o'clock Deputy Sheriff E. J. Warren with a load of Dep uties from the Sheriff's Office arrived in Buckeye, and accom- panied by J. H. Tracy, started south over the desert road toward Gila Bend. The driver of the Ajo stage which arrived in Buckeye about six o'clock re- ported having passed a gang of Mexicans on the desert road be- tween here and Gila Bend. Tracy and the deputies from the sheriff's office started south and about eleven o'clock met the band as described and placed them under arrest and brought them into Buckeye l where they were placed in jail. None of the men were armed l and they were foot sore and hungry.
 It appears that the Mexicans had been sent out by a Nogales agency to work in a mine near Gila Bend, and when they arrived there they found conditions unsatisfactory and wages lower than repre- sented, and hearing there was plenty of work in the vicinity of Phoenix started afoot by the way of Buckeye for Phoenix.
 When they reached the Car rothers ranch about four miles this side of Gila Bend, one of their members approached the house for the purpose of asking for water. It appears that this Mexican had during the day captured a Gila Monster and had attached him to a stick three or four fet long, and as he approached the house he
Williams news., 1917-04-19

carried this stick in front of
 him with the Gila Monster
 dangling from the end, giving
 the appearance of a man carry
 ing a rifle. MT. Edmonds the
 manager of the ranch was
 alone with his wife and when
 they saw the man approaching
 with what they thought to be
 a gun in his hands, they i'm
 mediately started for Gila Bend
 by way of the back door and
 never stopped or looked back until they had reached their
 destination. By the time they reached Gila Bend they were sure the band was composed of Villista bandits and that they were raiding the ranch. The sheriff of Yuma county was at once notified, who in turn noti- fled Sheriff Wilky of Maricopa county and soon the whole west end of the county was up in arms.
 No one is particularly cen- surfing MT. Edmonds for the spectacular part he played in giving the alarm, but most people think the deputy sheriff stationed at Gila Bend should l have made greater effort to sat- isfy himself of the gravity of the situation, or at least follow up the clew and make some eff fort to confirm the report.
 However, the citizens of this valley demonstrated that they are pretty we'll organized and are ready in case of an emer- gency, especially the people of the Arlington valley. However we would urge that every able bodied man in this end of the county arm himself and keep on hand at all times a good SUD- ply of ammunition, for no doubt we will be called upon to defend ourselves in earnest be- fore the end of the year.

Disfguring Structures.

At Q meeting of the Central Citizens
Association the other night protest was
entered against the construction of one
story buildings, on the ground that they
are detrimental to the development of
the neighborhoods in which they arc
placed and Disagreement. This mat
ter has been agitated before, but with
out result in legislation or municipal or
dinance. 1t is desirable to have it soon
determined, for Washington is in a state
of growth. There can be no doubt of
the unsightliness of squat structures
placed alongside of buildings of regu-
lation height, cheaply built to yield a
small immediate return while perhaps
waiting for the further development of
til immediate region. Washington
growth is not to be measured alone in
terms of values invested. The city
should develop evenly and with a view
to its general attractiveness. This mat
ter is worthy of serious consideration by
the Commissioners and by Congress.

The People and Legislation

When it reassembles, Congress, for
awhile at least, will hold the center of
the stage A large volume of business
Will be presented, and much of If will
have to be transacted Neither evasion
nor postponement will be possible. Leg
islators must legislate.
Reports have it that great many
people will appear in Washington from
time to time in support of measures in
which they are interested and appeal
directly to senators and representatives,
IF they have already discussed the mat
tiers at home, they will. renew the dis

legislative action. If they are taking
them up for the first time with the leg
islators, they Will do SO with the greater
satisfaction for substituting the spoken
