NEVADA RETAINS
 COUNTY AGENTS
(, 500 Appropriated by Quorum Court for Farm DemOnstra-
 tion-Janit0r Will Also Be
 Emnloved at Court House.

Tho neople of the entire county ,bould feel proud of the record made yesterday by the county quorum court .,hon this representative assembly of citizens by their decisions made pos .;he the carrying forward of import ont work in the county which has al- .oodv been started, but which lacked ,be necessary action of this court, not onlv this but by the appropriating of otber sums of money for certain pur- roses places old Nevada county in the list with other progressive counties in the state.

WILL NOT SEIZE
 THE HOME FOODS
Government Issues Emphatic Denial of Report That It Is Going to Commander the House.
 wife's Pantry.

There is no truth in a widely cir culated statement that the Govern ment expects to take food supplies from any family. Both the Food Ad- ministration and the Department of Agriculture join in a statement to counteract what seems to be a delib- crate propaganda to the effect that the Government intends to take from every family all canned goods put up in excess of 100 quarts.
 This is only one of the variations of the rumor, which has been widely ciruculated. Another statement is that the Government has been urging the canning, drying and preserving of fruits and vegetables so that they will be in a convenient form for the Gov ernment to handle and transport when it takes them away from the people. Further elaboration is that these goods are to be taken away from the American homes and shipped to Eng land.
 In one instance a motorists stopped at farmhouse to fill the radiator of his automibile. In the course of con- versation he casually inquired wheth- CT the farmers family was canning all the surplus fruits and vegetables in order to help conserve the food supply. He was informed that the farmer was not doing this because the Government intended to take all the canned goods away except 2 small part of it actually needed by the family itself.
 The authorities state emphatically that no such course has ever been con templated by the Government. On the contrary, both the Department of Agriculture and the Food Administra- ticn are strongly urging housewives to can and preserve, especially at this time, all surplus fruits and vegeta- bles in order that the households themselves may have a cheap and plentiful supply of food.

CONSERVATION AT
 THE STATE FAIR

Conservation and development of state resources has ever been the watchword of the Arizona State Fair. This year as at no former exposition the motto has special application. The nation needs every added pound of food and every improvement ir method that can be devised to serve the ends of increase and economy. Proportionate to it's area and popula- ton Arizona should be the greatest contributing factor in the nations prosperity and will be if Arizona peo- pie rise to their opportunities. In do- ing so they will not only earn the worlds acclaim but enjoy home prosperity incomparable with any for mer period in the States history.
 Arizona needs people and capital for state development. However, de- plorable for other reasons, war con- ditions have brought to Arizona un- precedented opportunity. The incl dent of the hour is the forthcoming State Fair, November 12-17, fully equipped and organized for the CO., operation of all the people in all en- terprises of progress and develop ment. Attending the Fair this seas on will not be the simple patriotic duty of helping a good thing along but will be six-day course in that self instruction that every citizen, old or young, needs at this time More than that it will be delightful out ing, week of unalloyed pleasure.
 Without detraction from the achievments of preceding expositions this years Fair is expected to over shadow all former efforts at both in. struction and entertainment, the thousands details of which will be set forth in the days immediately to come. To miss it will be both an occasion of regret and lost opportunity.
 The important thing in this initial announcement is to give the widest publicity to the fact that the Far catalogue and premium list is now published and will be furnished with out cost to anyone addressing a re- quest to B. w. Zachau, Secretary State Fair Commission, Phoenix, Arl- zona. This is a neat little book of 1S0 pages and is replete with the in formation that will be needed by ev- cry exhibitor. Premium offers, de- partment organization, instruction as to making entries and other facts of importance, including the general program are all recited. It is in fact the "Fair Bible". Send for it and then not only go to the Fair but send something for exhibition.

JUDGES TO STRUGGLE
 ALONG ON SAME PAY

Superior judges of Arizona, who have been anticipating an increase in salary as a result of the decision re- gently handed down by Judge McAl- ister, sitting in the case of Lockwood versus Cochise County, are doomed to disappointment for the time being, at least.
 Attorney General Wiley E. Jones notified State Auditor Boyce that he had instructed the board of supervis- ors of Cochise county to appeal the decision to the supreme court. Aud itor Boyce had previously addressed the attorney general seeking an order authorizing the increase in pay in ac- cordance with the ruling of Judge McAlister.
 It is the opinion of the attorney general that the highest court should render a decision in the salary con- troversy before the increase in sala- " is authorized.
 It was previously stated that the ruling of Judge McAlister would automatically affect ten other supe- rior judges of the state but this would be the case, it was stated today, only under the circumstances that the case is appealed to the supreme court and affirmed.
 Should Cochise county fail to ap- peal the case, however, the increase would be effective only in that coun- ty.
 It is also the opinion of the attor- ney general that an appeal to the su- preme court in this case will prob- ably settle the question as to the in- crease of salaries of the governor and attorney general.
