the hole at this depth. The Plains well
went into gas at 1898 feet and at 2O5S

This well carries out the rule estab-

The General warns the war correspondents not to write very much on the subject of peace prospects pointing out that to do so will be to still further aggravate the situation.

CANYON PROJECT ID
 BE RESUMED SOON

That the giant dam across the Colo rado river at Diamond canyon will be built as soon as war conditions be- come settled, is the belief of E. H. Carpenter of Peach Springs, who has been engaged in making Photographic prints for eastern capitalists propOs- ing to build the project. Mir. Car penter was in Kingman this week on business and said he expected an en- gineer out from New York in the near future.
 The plan is to construct a big cleo tric plant to generate electricity for the whole of northwest Arizona. It would be utilized for mine and mill operation and doubtless would do much for the industrial development of this part of the country.
 At present the engineers who made the preliminary survey and took soundings are engaged in war activi- ties, but as soon as their services are available for peaceful pursuits they will return to the canyon.

HOTEL MEN ID HELP
 GUT COST OF LIVING

At the State capital has been held the first meeting of the hotel and res taurant committee called by Chairman Riordan, State Food Administrator. Those attending were: N. T. Grier, Jefferson Hotel, Phoenix, Chairman; Arthur Luhrs, Commercial Hotel, Phoenix; A. V. Riley, Adams Hotel, Phoenix; c. H. Reed, Superintendent Harvey Houses, Needles, and Tom De- vine, Beale Hotel, Kingman.
 Possibly the keynote address of the session was by G. H. Reed of the Har- vey House system, which he stated is giving all possible help in the conser- vation movement. For instance, the use of wheat flour has been cut down at least 75 percent in the dining cars, and in the systems eating houses and hotels there has been a general sub stitution of rice flour and corn meal, while there has been an enormous per centgae of cut in the quantity of sugar and fats heretofore used. Poultry and fish have been substituted for beef, mutton and pork.
 The hotel men are formulating plans expected to do much toward simplifying menu cards and decreas- ing the cost of living, while utilizing the products best available and leav- ing the food served both palatable and nutritious

There are bear stories and deer stories. This tale falls within the latter class. A week ago last Friday Joe Goodwin, Murray Carrow and J. B. Wright left for the haunt of ye festive deer in the wilds south of Se- igman. Arriving about noon they set about making plans to capture the pride of the forest. Before night they had landed two fine bucks. Joe Good win shot 170-pounder and one of the other boys snared another fine speci- men. Both bucks were within a short distance of the camp, the largest be- ing slain where they could drive their car.

AMERICANS MUST
 SAVE FOOD IF WAR
 Is ID BE WON SOON

Food Administrator Hoover is send ing out a number of live-wire agents to awaken the nation to the necessity for food conservation, that the war may be won. The second representa- tive to come to Arizona is c. w. Grist, just from similar work in California. Mr. Crist, at the State Capitol, has brought fresh energy to the staff of the State Administrator T. A. Rior- dan, by presentation of data of start ling sort, showing that far more than powder, bullets and men will be need ed from America.
 He called special attention to the f1ct that Germany before the war pro- duced 75 percent of the food she need ed. Her conquests of territory have been almost entirely of food produe- ing sections, such as Rumania, Serbia Poland and Belgium and from these sections, largely by labor of a subJu- allies have at least the stamina that has supplied the missing 25 percent possibly to the grevious hardship ot the producing sections, but to the benefit of Germany.
 Great Britian, on the contrary, be- fore the war was only one-third self supporting in a food way, while France lacked much. The struggle ot Germany today is to starve out Great Britian and France and it is the duty of the American nation to see that hel allies have at feast the stamina that comes from abundant food, that the battles of democracy may be fought by other than starving men. The sit nation already is serious and the great needs of the allies for food should mol be minimized.
 For this reason the national ad mInistration is urging personal par ticipation in food conservation plans by every man, woman and child within the United States. Food production must be keyed up to the highest pos sible point. The food produced mus be used to the very best possible ad vantage and all waste must be elim inaed. If these things cannot be ac' complshed by volunteer effort, ther must come compulsory action along the lines that have proven successful in Germany.

Arguments were in progress in su- perior court today on the plea in abatement filed by the defense in the case of the Fields Flotation company versus the Keystone Consolidated Min ing company. The Fields Flotation company is suing the Keystone for about 5000 royalty for use of what is known as the Fields process" in the mill. The arguments were ex- pected to continue throughout the day and probably the case will go to trial on it's merits at some later date.

Hey, ,YOuF Fans!J Jess OrndOrff's Back;
 Here to Stay,Says

Moonlight baseball is the latest In fact, it is so late that it hasn't been tried out yet. But that is why Jess Orndorff, he of the Charlie Horse" arm, is back in Kingman Jess caused great gobs of grief tc trickle down the cheeks of Kingman fans last summer when he stole away from town for the big league. Now he has stolen back and caused the stock of the fans to rise 1000 percent,
 Jess dropped into town, as though from a German airplane, one bright morning before breakfast this week. His friends rushed at him with open arms and almost mobbed him with their affections. There were several others, about town though who "knew it would happen, for Jess had written them off and on all summer that he was 'homesick" and just aching for a chance to be back in Kingman.
 Jess hasn't divulged his plans as yet, but some of the town sports are willing to wager their next years salary that Jess is planning to or ganize Moonlight" baseball club or something like that. He might be figuring on playing a winter series. Some made so bold as to predict that the big leaguer was out here to try to scare up post-season series with one of the Coast league contingents.
 Anyway, he's here and says he's go- ing to stay this time.
