HOG THIEVES CAUGHT

Three Mexican youths of Tempe were taken into custody yesterday by the local officers for the theft of hogs from the w. s. Dorman and w. w. Dobson ranches between here and Mesa, and their later sale to the Pioneer market at Tempe Checks aggregating a total of nearly $50 were received by the boys. Monday night the last bunch of hogs were driven out of the Dorman field at about 10 o'clock, one of the boys admitted yesterday, and it was just an all-night drive to get the ami malls into Tempe and onto the ranch along the river bottom, where they were kept until they were, later in the day, disposed of to the meat market. A. L. Ochos, who went by the name of Francisco Lopez while he was dealing in hogs, is regarded by the officers as the man at the bottom of the case and he, along with the two Romero boys. both of whom are under age, are being held at the county jail awaiting their arraignment before Justice of the Peace Kingsbury of the Mesa court.

FORMER MESA MAN
 SLAIN AT Il PAS0

MESA, April 20.-Mrs. Isaac Dana of this city is in receipt of a telegram telling of the staying of her brother, David Salisbury, at Fl Paso, Texas, by a Mexican. The message gave no par ticulars as to the killing, or its cause
 David Salisbury was formerly a res ident of Mesa but for some years had lived in Mexico, being one O. the Nor mon colonists driven out of the revo- lution torn republic during the raids upon the Mormons. He was a very energetic man and had acquired con- siderable property. which was confis- cated and he with his wife and six children became refugees. The influ- ential character of the deceased had brought him into the disputes arising in Mexico and he had both bitter ene- mics and strong friends.
 Since reaching Fl Paso, he had en- gagged in the contracting business and not long since had trouble with a Mex ican who was in his employ, and who threatened revenge The relatives here think that perhaps the killing was the outgrowth of this quarrel.
 Bishop Isaac Dana left yesterday for Fl Paso in order to be with the widow and the children in thein emergency.

MARKET NEWS By R. Allyn Lewis

Jerome Verde on heavy buying from Jerome, rose from S1.o0 to $2.25 per share, one flash report ing sales at $500. @
 Reliable sources of information state that two feet of 27 per cent copper ore were encountered in the diamond drill hole from United Verde Extension ground.
 The buying all day has been of the best character, men who know the property and the ground thor oughly were optimistic as to the company's future and bought heav- fly.
 Of course there have been and may yet be false alarms about this property, but today's developments are most significant and would seem to indicate that they have struck the rich ore body they have sought so long. The stock will bear close watching.

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, April 19.-After a wild advance today Of about 1oc all around 10 new top record prices, tte wheat market closed Hurried, 79sc tu 95sc net higher, with May at $Z.40% to $2.41. and July at $2.05A to s2 o53s. Urgent demand from ex- polte:s ana millers was largely re- sponsiblc, together with the fact that scarcity of immediate supplies had hoisted No. , red wheat at St. Louis to within 2c of 8 q bushel. Corn finished 23sc to 4Ac up; oats Ac off to 1ac@5s advance, and provisions unchanged to 40c higher.
 To a great degree, hopes vanished that important quick relief was to be had through large shipments of ment was sharply stimulated also by Washington report that the short age in the domestic winter wheat crop was fully as extensive as pre- liminary estimates indicated.
 New high records were scored in corn, chiefly as result of wheat strength. Gains in scme cases ex- ceeded 5Rc. Oats sympathized with the upturns in other cereals, but holders seized the chance to realize profits. Besides, crop reports were very favorable, and new acreage was said to be decidedly enlarged.
 Provisions mounted with grain Comparative weakness in the hog market was ignored.

He stated that he had received a letter from the Jap anese consul at Los Angeles in which it was said that the people of his race living in that city would form Jap auese Red Cross and that all scattered members should unite with the United States organization. The applicant. who is a reputable man. spoke serious ly as he put the matter thus:
 If the others fight for us we ought to work for them"
 The Red Cross workers here are very desirous of enrolling a number of Mesa people and it is hoped that very many will take the same view as expressed by the Japanese and volunteer their names as members.

beings.
Thousand Products from Alfalfa.
He declared that the plant had
both nourishing and medicinal prop.
critics and he travelled through the
state, lecturing on it's values and
making demonstrations. He pro-
duced 1000 different products of at.
falfa, using it in all kinds of breads
and cakes, and as souvenirs of his
alfalfa demonstrations he gave away
samples of alfalfa candy.
He invented mill for making it
into flour and griding special stock
foods, and received overtures for cap
italizing his discoveries from some of
the leading financiers of the country.
At the Chicago, New York, St. Paul
and Kansas City land shows his dis
plays of alfalfa products were sec
tions of great interest.
At home he was not given much
consideration, his ideas being con-
sldered those of dreamer, but in the
east he received much more atten-
ton, his reputation as scientist
gaining him the ear of some of the
AdIlOA luOSt ullueuLldl captains OIL
industry. Had not death cut short
his activities it is proable that as
result he would have been able to
promote the use of alfalfa as a food
before this.
Father of Dry Land Farming
Dr. Sudduth was one of the first
advocates of non-irrigated farming
in eastern Montana, conducting a
large experimental station at his own
expense, at Fairview ranch, near the
present site of BroadvieW, two dec
AIDES ago, and year after year growing
fine crops of grains on the uplands
Of the Lake Basin district.
His experiments in dry land farm
ing were so successful that the great
movement to settle the uplands of
the eastern section of the state was
started, and the great fields Of way
ing grain, hundreds of elevators and
communities that have
transferred the one great cattle range
into rich agricultural country are
a monument to his work.
In furthering the practice of dry
land farming in the state he became

Alfalfa has been given a place as
bread ration. Conservationists
have acknowledged it's value as a
food for humans. They have recon-
mended it as a substitute, in the
shape of meal, for buckwheat, corn
and wheat flours. On the bills OF
fare in the leading hotels and res
taurants of New York and Chicago
In bold, black type, one reads cal
falfa waffles and cakes"
The dream of DIR. w. x. Sudduth
Of Broadview and Billings has come
true. The necessity for conserving
the American food supply in time of
war has done what the eloquence of
the noted Montana scientist failed
to accomplish. Food scientists have
placed the stamp of their approval on
"alfalfa" as a food for both men and
beasts.
1t seemed tragedy indeed that he
is not here to witness the triumph
of his ideas. But like most men, who
pioneer the way and present some
new thought or idea, recognition of
the worth of the discovery comes aft
er death. DR.. Sudduth died a few
years ago in Roundup, where he had
been taken suffering with a severe
cold.
Fortune Spent Experimenting.
Having spent a great fortune in
experimental work - in medicine,
dentistry, psychology, agriculture
and manufacturing-he reached the
end of his days with but a small COM
petence and contracted the illness
which ended fatally while touring
Musselshell county, securing petit
tions for the employment by the
board of county commissioners of a
county agriculturist, expecting to Sc
cure the position at salary of prob
ably 1925 per month, that he might
have work and revenue, while help
ing his fellow man, in his declining
years.
1t was about ten years ago, that he
startled the scientific agriculturists
with the declaration that alfalfa con-
tanned more and greater food prop
critics than many of the best known
grains and that ultimately it would
take a place as one of the most valu-
able foods, not only for livestock,
