FOUR ARRESTED ON CATTLE THEFT
 CHARGE
Many Cattle Alleged to Have Been Butchered and Hides Thrown in Pond at Morenci Dyke-Remains are Discovered and Charges are Preferred.

Four cow men. were arrested this week and confined in the county jail on the charge of stealing cattle. The men implicated in the affair are John Sutherlin and George Johnson, cattle men, and Jose Telles and Licano the former Newtown butcher and the latter his helper. The cattle, which amounted to several head, were owned by the following parties, who prefer red charges against the men jointly: Vernon Martin, Frank Davis, c. F. Pascoe, John R. Ward, Rafael Me dina and Gerardo Cerilla.
 These parties had been missing cattle for some time and it was not until Lum Moore, who is employed at the Morenci dyke, discovered the bones and hides in the tailings pond that clue to the guilty parties was obtained. In his rounds of the dyke Moore noticed something sticking out of the water in the pond and being curious, procured hook and began dragging the water. The dragging process brought to light a number of hides, which Moore thought was a suspicious circumstance.
 The authorities were notified and at the edge of the pond trail was found and upon following it found that it led to the Telles slaughter house. After looking through the place three freshly butchered beeves were found but no hides were in sight. Four of the hides taken from the pond were frehs ones and adding the facts to- 9ether the officers concluded that they had found plenty of evidence against the suspected parties and their arrest followed.
 At his hearing before Justice An dress Licano stated that he was en- ployed as butcher by Tellez and was not aware of whose cattle he was butchering, as it was none of his affair to inquire as to whom they formerly belonged. He was put un- der bond of S2,O0O which at this time he has been unable to furnish
 Tellez waived his hearing and was placed under bond of $500 on each of the six counts, a total of $3000 which amount was furnished. John son and Sutherlin also waived their examination and were each placed under bonds of S2,000, Sutherlin hav- ing furnished his while it is probable Johnson will be able to secure the necessary amount by the end of the week.
 The affair has created no little in tereSt here this week as all the parties to the transaction are well known in this section. Several cat tlemen have complained lately of the loss of stock and it may be that with the arrest of these suspects a crimp will be put in the activities of the thieves.

tables and fruits. This is best done
In a small way by placing the mate
rial in boxes and pouring it from n
box into another ono a day for three

short drying.
Directions for Drying.
Many Of the products for which d.
rections are given here may be dried
either with or without preliminary
blanching. In such cases both meth
dds are described. Alternative meth
DDS are designated by letters.
Sweet Corn.
Only very young and tender corn
should be used for drying, and IL
should be prepared at once after gath
ering.

three-lnch space in the back. The
other trays alternate In the same way.
This permits the current Of heated air
to pass around and over the trays. A
ventilator opening, about " inches
wide and six inches long, is left In the
top Of the drier, through which the
moist air may pass away.
This principle Of construction Is fol-
lowed so that currents Of air will pass
over the product as well as up through
It, gathering the moisture and passing
away. The movement Of the current
Of air induces a more rapid and uni
form drying. The upper trays can
be shifted to the lower part Of the
drier, and the lower trays to the upper
part as drying proceeds, so as to dry
the products uniformly throughout.
Another Home DrIer.
Still another home drier is the cook
stove oven. Bits Of food. leftovers,
e~speciaIly sweet corn, can be dried on
plates In a very slow oven or on the
back Of the cOOkstove and saved for
winter use. II the oven is very warm
