CAN CAREFULLY

Careful, painstaking canning is the
only kind of canning that pays, de-
clares the United States Department
of Agriculture in a statement issued
today warning housewives against
carelessness in putting up fruits and
vegetables.
''"The faithful following of approx
ed methods and directions is the only
safe road to success in canning" says
the statement. Housewives who
carelessly practice methods that are
short cuts, are taking risk of spoil
new to them, or who attempt to i'm
prove on the methods, or to make
short cuts. are taking a risk of spoil
ing good food. Canning is essential
ly scientific process, however much
it may have been simplitied for home
use.
Don't throw away stale bread, Mad
am Housewife.
1t can be used in many ways in
preparing your family's meals.

Swimming is an art and should be
respected as such. i can say with
perfect safety that only about 90 per
cent of the American swimmers
have seen have what is termed per-
feet stroke. That is why l am cer-
tain that my course Of dry-land swim
ming articles will accomplish such
wonders.
l do not wish to appear ridiculous
and say that after taking these dry?
lald lessons you will swim the mo-
ment you touch the water, but l do
say that mastery of what will teach
you through this newspaper in just a
few brief lessons will mean that with
in am hour after you enter the water
you will be able to swim properly and
with good stroke.
Most of the swimmers i have seen,
twhile they are able to swim and swim
Eor quite distance, have a bad stroke

and still they wonder why they are

Charged With SaIting Mine.

When the superior court ad- journed last evening the jury had been prepared for the trial of Joe Martinez, who is accused of having salted 9 placer mine in the Quartzsite district. It is the first case of the kind ever tried in Yuma county, and on this account will arouse a great deal of interest. Henry c. Kelly is attorney for the defen- dant and yerterday was quite thorough in the examination of jurors, indicating that he is going to make a hard fight for his client.
 Martinez was arrested on con- plaint of M. M. Hubbell, and bound over by Justice A. G. Grossman of Quartzsite, before whom the preliminary hearing took place.
 It is alleged in the complaint that Martinez attempted to de fraud M. M. Hubbell, and James H. Atkins, who are working the Gro Pine placer mine on lease and bond contract, and who are prospective purchasers of the property, by placing gold among goldbearinR ore The judgment of Justice Grossman recites that the defendant deliberately stood over a hole in the Gro Pine placer diggings and threw gold into the hole in order to make such gravel show up in values and defraud said M M. Hubbell and others who now have the ground under bond with the ex- pectation af purchasing same if such group shows high enough values to justify them" It is further stated that Hubbell and another witness were in hiding and saw Martinez throw the gold into the hole"
 Salting a mine is a felony in this state.-Yuma Sun.

Talking Out First Papers to Become
 Real Citizens.

In many parts of the country, and especially in New York, Chicago and the larger cities, hundreds of Germans and Aus trians have applied for first citi. zenship papers during the past few days, since diplomatic rela- tions were severed with Ger many. Nearly every editor who publishes a paper in the German language in the United States has come out squarely for Amer ica, the land of their adoption. In so doing, they have shown the loyalty that is due this coun- try: No doubt it is with sorrow to many who were cradled in the Fatherland, that this stand be- comes necessary. Nevertheless, the oath of allegiance is binding and most of them took that so- lemn VOW in good faith.
 Those who had not yet taken out first papers, desired to ex- press their loyalty by so doing, although the act makes them subject to military duty. On the other hand, should eventualities enSue, these foreigners nao visions of the concentration camps where they would neces- sarily have been quartered. But whatever the cause, it shows that these people came to this country to cast their lot with us, and in so doing they are ready to assume the duties of citizen ship, even to the extent of talk ing up arms, if necessary, against their relatives and friends in the kingdom from which they came. Of such blood and such senti-' ment has this great nation been made up from the civilized na- tions of the European countries. This is the spirit of freedom of which America can well feel proud. 1.-The Messenger.

FARMER'S WEEK A SUCCESS.

The Annual Farmers and Housekeepers' Week, held by the Agricultural Extension Ser vice at the University of Ariz- ona, proved great success, says the Graham Guardian.
 The total registration was about 25O, as compared with 168 last year. Farmers and farmers wives came to the meeting from all parts of the State.
 The lectures and demonstra- tionS given were extremely prac- tical and instructive and at the end of the week, when the farm CTS and their wives departed for their homes, general expressions of good feeling and satisfaction oyer the affair were heard on every hand.
 The program was carried out almost without exception as per schedule and the speakers from within the State and from ad- joining states responded as pro- missed.
 A number of excursions were provided the visiting farmers and their wives. Annual meet ings of the State dairy and swine growers associations were held and the State Farm Improve ment Association held an inn portant meeting.
 The meetings held for the women were the best of the kind yet held in the State.
 It was an all-round agricul- tural and home economics con gress, crowded full with valu- able suggestions and up to date pointers on how to make the most of advantages of farming and farm life. The event is an annual one and all will have an opportunity to return to the Un- iversity again next year.

 Arizona has 500 square miles of coal lands, located principally in Navajo, Apache and CocOninO counties. The fields are ap- parently equal to those now being worked so extensively in New Mexico. There has not, as yet, been demand for opening the Arizona fields.
 Mrs. Marsh, of Santa Cruz county, has in troduced a lengthy bill that received especial con slderation from the chief clerk. It abolishes the state board of control and substitutes a board of public welfare, constituted of the governor, the state examin- CT and third person, who shall not hold any office in the state and who shall be secretary and purchasing agent. The new board shall keep the accounts of the public institutions, including the university and normal schools. and shall purchase for free distribution a report show Ing the financial condition of the state and the revenues and cost of each of the public institution An appropriation of S2O,OOO is annexed.

BUILD NEW DORMITORIES.
Heads of State Educational Institu-
 tions Favor Them.

Popular among the requests shown in this years session of
 the legislature are those for dor
 mitories, dormitory for boys of the Northern Arizona Normal
 School; a boys dormitory for
 Tempe Normal School, and a dormitory for boys and another for girls at the University of
 Arizona. These requests bring to mind the question as to whe- ther the state should provide dormitories in it's several institu- tionS or whether the students of these institutions should seek lodging away from their cam puSeS.
 It seems to be the unanimous opinion of the heads of our state institutions that dormitories are essential in Arizona. The period of a college education is usually the period during which the student enters into his own re- sponsibilities It is the most inn portant time of his life, the time when the breaks loose from home ties and is the caretaker of his own money. There is pro- bably nothing more important than the association of that boy during the period from IT to 21 years of age. He begins to see life from new angle; it is the period of development from the boy to the man.
 The University of Arizona fully realizes it's responsibilities in this particular, but is under a decided disadvantage. At the University are two groups of students, those living in the dor mitorieS and those elsewhere. Those on the campus are in close association and friendship with forty or fifty other students, many of whom are working their own way. They see thriftiness, and are encouraged to practice it. They are housed with stu dents who are Studious, and they see the value of study and follow lead; they are housed with stu dents who have acquired leader ship themselves.
 The students living of the campus have none of these in- spirations-they live alone, or with one or two other fellows, and while the University exer- ciseS supervision over all stu dents, whether or not they live on the campus, to see that they are not led into bad habits, the difficulty comes in being unable to lead them into good habits. This is one of the big advant ages of dormitories.
 Another matter of material inn portance is the cost. Whereas the cost of a room in the dormi- tory at the University of Arizona is $3 per month, it is impossible in the City of Tucson to get a satisfactory room for less than SIP per month. This is really a serious matter to most of the students, as probably three fourths, of them are working their way through college To them it is a struggle to get an education-a dollar looks as big as a cart wheel-and $9 extra a month means a great deal to them. It means 36 hours of out side, time that should be given to study y.-Sigual.

The Game Law Respecting Quail.

By section 654 of the Arizona Criminal Code, the seasons for different kinds of game were fixed and among them Quail, from October 18th to February 1st." The generic term Quail alone is used, and none of the different species were designat ed. By the law enacted by the people at the polls last Novem- Der it is provided: That Sec. 654 of the Penal Code of Arizona be and the same is hereby am- ended so as to read as follows: The new or changed seasons and bag limits are then set out and when Quail are reached, the words used are "Gambels or Valley Quail from October 18th to December 31st.'' Now we have. according to naturalists, the Gambels, the Valley, the Scalebreast or Whitetop and the Fool Quail. While the statute treats Gambels and Valley Quail as one and the same, sportSmen and naturalists know they are separate and distinct. Gambels quail only being designated it must follow that the other spe- cies are not included and hence are not prOtected.-E

Arizona's county salary law, which divides the counties into fourteen classes and puts one county in each class, was declar- unconstitutional by the supreme court in a decision handed down Monday afternoon in the case of Frank l.. Hunt vs. Mohave county. Huut was county asses sor and brought suit to collect his salary under the laws of 1901. The court holds the 1912 enact ment of the legislature invalid on the ground that it was special and local legislation. County officers who are not satisfied with their salaries under the present law and who have been allowed assistants and expenses, will have to refund the excess over that allowed by the 1901 law in settling with the counties, the court declares.
