MILO MAIZE

The following information regarding milo maize was given to an enquirer by Dr. R. H. For
 bes, director of the agricultural experiment station of the uni versity.
 With reference to milo maize will say that this makes heavy demands upon the soil and must inevitably depreciate the yield of the crops that fol- low without an intervening green manuring crop of some kind. Under present conditions the harvesting of a smaller crop of very high priced grain would be warranted, the soil being restored by a summer growing green manuring crop such as cowpeas or beans. Corn undoubtedly is not so hard up- on the soil as milo maize altho in general the same arguments apply to the following of corn with wheat.
 Probably the most popular corn in Arizona at the present time is Mexican June, especi- ally the variety known at Sac atom Mexican June. Hickory King does we'll at the higher elevations, and in the northern part of the state, Papago sweet corn is proving to be es- pecially desirable. and produc- tive silage corn"

Approximately l 1,5OO,OO0 per sons ride on the New York sub- way system every day. One half of this number is carried during rush hours, between 7 to g a. m. and 5 to 7 D. m. Un- til the new extensions now un- der construction are in opera tion, every rush hour train is being operated that tracks and station facilities will permit. At rush hours local trains are made up with six cars and ex- press trains with ten cars run under one minute and forty eight seconds headway. Dur ing the past ten years, it is said that the New York subway system has carried one and one- half times the worlds popula- tion and during this period only one person has been killed in a train accident.

The Poultry Department of the University of Arizona has a pen of White Leghorns, with an average egg production of 229.9 eggs per hen. The low est record for an individual hen is 216 and the highest is 25O. These are actual trapnest rec ords taken during the 365 days following the laying of the first egg for each hen.
 This pen of White Leghorns is a special breeding pen of ten hens that mated to a cock erel from a hen with a 275 egg record, and the University is expecting to build up a flock of high grade Leghorns from this pen. No stock will be for sale from this special mating before the spring and summer of 1918.

Largest Underwater Cable

For Telephone
 One of the longest and larg- est telephone cables to be laid on the ocean bottom was com- pleted this summer across Rar- itan Bay, between Eltingville, Staten Island. N. Y. and Keans- burg. N. J., a distance of 5.5 miles. This completed an all- cable toll line 50 miles long be- tween New York City and Sring Lake, N. J., and certain ocean counties. This line replaces 5000 miles of open telephone conductors and removes 13, ,OOO crossarms from poles. There are submarine telephone cables on the Pacific Coast and across the English Channel which are longer than the Raritan Bay cable, but they contain only from two to sixteen pairs of wiresfor transmitting telephone calls, as compared to the seven- ty-four pairs for calls and the twelve pairs of wires for testing purposes which are in the Rari- tan Bay cable.

VEGETABLE MARMALADES
Less Expensive Than Those Calling For Use of Fruit

Vegetable marmalades or jams are made less expensively than fruit marmalades, because a less proportion of sugar is used and because the vegeta- bles may be procured more cheaply. The extension de- partment of the United States Department of Agriculture, CO., operating with state agricultur- al colleges in the North and West, presents several suggest ed recipes for vegetable mar malades or jams, to be used the same as fruit products. The ingredients for some of these are shown below. In each case the mixture should be cooked slowly until it is thick and the ingredients are tender, and then packed in hot jars and sterilized.
 Tested Recipes
 Carrot Marmalade--T Two cups of ground carrot, 112 cups of sugar, 2 sliced lemons, and 2 teaspoonfuls of ground ginger root.
 Carrot and orange marma- lade-Two cups of ground car rot, the juice of two lemons, the juice and grated rind of 1 or ange, 1 cup sugar.
 Carrot and pineapple mar malade-One cup of ground carrot, one cup of shredded pineapple, 1 cup of sugar, 1 sliced lemon.
 Pumpkin and pineapple mar malade-One cup of pumpkin peeled and ground, 1 cup of shredded pineapple, 2 cups of sugar, 1 teaspoonful of ginger; this to stand over night in a granite pan or for several hours until the juice is extracted. Add the juice and rind of one lemon and cook as heretofore stated.
 Ripe tomato marmalade- Twelve medium sized tomatoes peeled and thinly sliced, 11a lemons sliced, 1A, cups of su- gar; to be placed in stew kettle in layers, cooked in covered vessel until tender, and then to simmer until the right con- sistency.

Lights Out!" blow the
 bugles.
 This is followed by no puff
 ing and blowing to extinguish
 candles. An orderly in the camp subway merely throws 2 switch and every lamp in the camp goes out except the street lamps which are on another cir cult.
 Our training camps, with an army in the making, are lighted with electricity. In some cases the drill field is also illuminated Where the camps are located away from any electric trans mission line, and where it can not be reached by any central station service, a small gasolene engine-driven generating plant is installed. The camp streets" are wired for street lights and the same poles carry the service wires from which the current is tapped off" to light the bar racks.
 A typical installation is to be found at Camp luton, situated on a government reservation comprising 16,0OO acres, on the main line of the Long Island Railroad, between the villages of Yaphank and Manorvillc. When entirely completed the camp will have from 15 to 20 miles of well paved streets, a modern sewer system, modern water works system and an el- ectric light and power 'distribu- tion system.

TALKING THROUGH HIS HAT.

Rumors and rumors and say-sos appear to be
a regulating force in the mental conception OF
the ordinary run of the human inhabitants OF
this earth. Statements prejudicial to the gov
eminent and our allies find currency where
even minimum of knowledge as to business
and political affairs should prevail. A senator
speaking from his desk in the senate said re-
Gently that he understood that the profits OF
leach of the two leading beef-packing establish
ments last year amounted to one hundred and
twenty-five million dollars, and the telegraph
spread the statement in the newspapers of the
country Now the reports of the two leading
beef packing companies for their last business
year had been printed, distributed to their
thousands of stockholders and summarized in
the financial columns Of the newspapers. The
information was easily accessible, and the facts
are that the profits of the concerns referred to
were scarcely one sixth of the sum stated. No
doubt the senator was misled, but the effects
were the same. His case is only an example of
others in high places and deplorably numerous.
This is no time for responsible men to give cur
rency to irresponsible statements which are GER
tain to create ill-feeling The fact that a
speaker is attacking what he fully believes to
be an evil is no justification for misrepresenta-
ton. The first step in dealing with any condi-
ton is to learn the facts about it.
