ARivACA GETS BULLS.

R. L. Tankersley, the we'll known cattle dealer, brought in a car load of pure bred Hereford yearling bulls this week from Missouri, that he sold to the Arivaca Land & Cattle company. These are the best average ship ment of Hereford bulls seen in this part of the country. They are big bone, good conformation. and splendid mark.
 Besides they come from the best strain of Herefords in the east and are different from any bulls now on the Arivaca range. President of the company, J. w. Began, liked the bulls so we'll when they arrived that he had Mir. Tankersley wire at once for another car load of the same stock. These bulls will be taken at once to the Arivaca ranch and placed in pasture, where they will be fed through the winter on cake and forage feed. The object of this company in bring ing in their bulls at this time of the year is to get them thorough ly acclimated by spring, when they will be ready for service.- Cattleman.

Most of the county's agriculture is very near the county seat and is directly benefited by the La guna dam irrigation system. a system capable of large exten- sion upon an immense acreage south of Yuma and north of the international line.

LANE GRANTS PERMITS.

Secretary Lane has issued re- gulations under which permits may be obtained to prospect for potash on public lands. For some years all lands known to contain potash have been with drawn from public acquisition, but the cutting off of potash from Germany makes it neces- sary to develop this country's supply of the valuable mineral. Permits may be issued to citi- zens, associations and corpora tions of the United States for the exploration of not exceeding 2,56O acres each of land in con- pact form, the permits to be for a period of two years. If potash is discovered in commercial quantities and quality, the per mittee will be entitled to pat ent for one fourth of the area covered by his permit, the re- mainder to be subject to lease by the government.

NEW REVENUE WAR STAMPS.

The act of Congress of Octo- Der 3rd, 1917, to provide revenue to defray war expenses requires that adhesive war tax stamps shall be kept on sale by post masters. These stamps are not good for postage, but are to be used solely to pay the war re- venue taxes upon parcel post packages on which the postage is 25 cents or more, and upon promissory notes, conveyances, and other business and legal documents as set forth in the law.
 As this law affects the parcel post:
 On and after December 1st, 1917, there shall be levied. col lected and paid upon every par eel of package transported from one point to another in the Unit ed States on which the postage amounts to 25 cents or more, a tax of one cent for each 25 cents or fractional part thereof charg- ed for such transporta tion, to be paid by the consignor. No such parcel or package shall be trans ported until stamp or stamps representing the tax due shall have been affixed thereto.

Make This A Liberty Bond Christmas

Urging upon the banks of Ari- zona the necessity of continuing the work of distributing Liberty bonds among as many investors as possible, and placing these securities in the hands of per sons who will hold them through the war, Governor Campbell has addressed the following letter to the various banks of Arizona:
 December 1, 1917.
 My Dear Sirs-I am reminded by the governor of the Federal Reserve bank of the twelfth dis trict that continued effort up on the part of our bankers for the widest possible distribution of Liberty Loan f per cent bonds is necessary.
 Our government requires every dollar of new money available for the purchase of it's bonds during the war, and the real purpose of the Liberty Loan campaigns is distribution of these government bonds among investors who will hold them during the period of the war.
 Officers and employees of all banks are urged to constant eff fort in the distribution of any bonds they have on hand. among residents of their districts who have not already invested.
 It is pointed out that the ap- preaching holiday season may well furnish an incentive to the purchase of these bonds. Every effort must be made by letter, advertisement and personally to prevail on our people to buy these bonds as Christmas gifts to relatives and friends, instead of the useless offerings so con- moply made at that time.
 have assured the governor of the Federal Reserve bank of the twelfth district that the bankers of Arizona will respond manfully to his appeal.
 With best wishes, I am,
 THOMAS E. CAMPBELL, Governor.

ARIZONA NOTES.
Items of Interest Culled From Our
 Exchanges.

Restoration to the public do- main from the ..Ionzano national forest of 96, 800 acres of land in central and western New Mexico and 27, 700 acres in northern Ari- zona was announced recently by Secretary Lane. The lands, gen orally of grazing character, will be subject to homestead entry at and after a. m., February II, next, and to settlement and other forms of disposition on and after February IS.
 American cattlemen operating in Mexico have started a move ment to organize an association to prevent stolen cattle and hides being brought into the United States iu bond and sold The plan is to have tLe sheriff
 search the cars containing cattle and hides for anything stolen from the ranches owned by the American rancherS in Mexico. An inspector will also be em- ployed if the plan is carried out. A gratifying condition is noted in Arizona live stock industry, notwithsta nding the demands of
 the war. In the past year range cattle, on the tax rolls, have in
 creased 136, ,174; sheep, 86, 13f, horses 16CO, and mules 1882. It had been expected that the pre- vailing high prices would have served to deplete ranges, but this does not appear to have been the result. These figures
 do not include the receipts of cattle from the plains region,
 shipped here on account of the
 drouth. h.-Cattleman.
 Dean A. E.. Douglas, astro
 homer at the University of Ari- zona, reports that the work on
 the manufacturing of the neceS- sary mechanical equipment for the new $6o,OOO refiecting tele5 scope for the University of Ari.
 ed to the University, has been held up indefinitely. This is due
 to the fact that the only plant in the country which makes this equipment is now engaged en-
 tirely in war works, principally
 the manufacturing of gunsights,
 and has been prohibited by the
 government from doing any
 private work until present mat
 ters are cleared.
 Two thirds of the stock of
 eggs in cold storage in Arizona
 must be disposed of by January
 1, 1918, according to an order
 which has been received by
 Timothy A. Riordan, United
 States food administrator for
 Arizona, from w. F. Priebe, in
 charge of the poultry and egg
 section of the perishable foods
 division. In a letter to the com
 mission men MT. Priebe indi-
 cates that there are altogether
 too many eggs in cold storage at
 this time, and asks their co oper-
 ation aud that of their patrons in securing large withdrawals
 before the first of the year. The
 tendency of such withdrawals,
 it was pointed out, would be to
 reduce the cost of eggs to the
 consumer.
