Among the other new things in- tfoduced into the high school this year IS the new watering system. Tom has been unable to keep the lawns Watered well this year even with steady dragging of the hose all day, due to the drouth. But he mas at last something to amuse hlmself with. It seems that all he mas To do IS to turn on the water or turn the pipe this way or that. To go into the minute mechanical parts of this system one might say thaT there is a large pipe running north and south with sub-heads brancbino off about every 20 feet. In this way the whole of the lawns can he Watered at the same time, giving Tom time to do other things,

"GOLD FLOWER" WAS
 ONCE ONLY A WEEK
est. Louis Globe-Democrat)


 ChrySanthemum means gold flow err although many varieties have no trace of yellow in their makeup. h. deed, they are of all colors-red, lilac, rose color. white, yellow, orange or two colors combined.
 Chrysanthemums are annuals, peren- nials or shrubby, and all have leafy stems. They are natives of the tenn perate parts of the world. and in the beginning were weeds and treated as such
 The ox-eye daisy is a chrysanthe- mum and so is the marigold. As you probably know, these are not very val uable flowers. but the cultivated chrys- anthemum is growing every year more costly.
 For the past few years there has been a chrysanthemum craze in the United States, which started thirty years ago from the smallest begin nings. Now the annual November shows have become fixed institutions and the displays are very magnificent.
 The flower was first cultivated in China and Japan, where it can be re- garded as the national flower It ap- pears in all decorative forms, in paint ing, in ceramics, in the exquisite needleWork of both countries and on the cheapest fans.
 The Dutch cultivated chrysanthe- nuns as early as 1889, and the first cultivated variety was brought from China to England in 17s9. Until 1920, but twelve varieties were known in England. and the first English show was held at Stoke, Newington, in 1S46.
 The species are divided into the in- curved a globe shaped flower, almost round, with broad, smooth florets, reg ularly arranged; the Japanese, which are noted for bright, rich color and ir- regular form; the reflexed, with flow CTS of mediom size, more or less spher- ical; the large anemones. famoos for their size, with two distinct sets of florets, one quilled and one flat; the pompous, small, dwarf plants, with short, flat or quilled florets, and the pompous anemones.
 There are thousands of varieties of these species-white, maroon, yellow, variegated. from the palest to the deepest shade.
 Chrysanthemums are not difficult to cultivate. They need light, rich soil, and are easily propagated by cuttings, suckers or parting the roots. They flower from October 10 until late in November. Cuttings are not expen- sive. ranging in price from 10 cents to $1 for common but pretty varieties. Of course, there is no limit to what you may pay for chrysa nthemums.

CORN PRODUCTS AT
 FAIR. PLEASE MANY

The Corn Products Refining com pany, a big manufacturing concern, is interesting local people by demon strations in the many admirable uses that can be made from products of corn. Mrs. Daly with the help of four assistants did considerable work at the state fair grounds all last week. They served doughnuts that were very pop ular, made from Mazola, one of the company's products. Mazola is pure ly a vegetable oil produced from the heart of American corn. It is said to be wholesome and is used by the house. wife in cooking, deep frying, santeing, shortening and salad dressings. Wom- en have learned to use Mazola for general cooking and salad dressings.
 Mrs. Daly is remaining in the valley for some time demonstrating through local stores the many uses of this pro- duct.

Arrangements have been made whereby the Coyote Tracks will be published once a week. Hereafter, svery Tuesday morning The Repub- lican will print a weekly page for the high school news. The Gazette will print a page the latter part Of the week. Thus the Coyotes will have two weekly contributions which will no doubt be more satisfactory 10 all concerned.
 The Coyotes returned to school yesterday refreshed and ready for hard work. Several of the pupils were displaying medals and blue ribbons. Ida McClarty, with the beautiful loving cup, was perhaps the happiest. Her $500 bull dog
 spots brought 10 her new honoro and the loving cup. The two big events for this week are: The II. Y. w. play Thursday night, entitled 'Afiss Fearless & Co.," and the big Coyote-U. of A. freshman football game on Friday. These will both be big events for the Coyotes Lest we forget. remember the big Thanks swing football game with the h. dians-
 How many high school pupils saw The biology exhibit at the state fair last week? According to the judges and everyone who saw it, the exhibit was the best one of it's kind at the fair. The collections of specimens were arranged on two squares of cardboard in black boxes with glass tops. The specimens consisted of one box of butterflies Oedidaptera), which was certainly a credit to the collector MT. Carpenter. In the other boxes dragon flies (Neuraptua), beetles (Coleoptera), moths Oep- edoptera) and grasshoppers (Orthop- tera). The specimens were attrac- lively arranged in these boxes and the boxes were well placed on the cardboard. Most of the credit for this fine collection is due to Mir Carpenter. the biology teacher at P. H. S. He spent lots of time in collecting and preparing this exhibit.
 Basketball will start two weeks from yesterday, according to Coach Carpenter. The school has seven letter men from last years team and lots of new material, so the chances for championship team are very good.

Micheal had the misfortune to, in some manner, lose all of the diplomas which he had re- ceIVed for his commercial work and this caused him to take several tests as he had nothing to show for his capabilities. Several days ago MT. Micheal received from the Los An geies business college a diploma which certified his capabilities to teach all the subjects in the com mercial course, It is quite an honor to receive a diploma from one of the best commercial colleges, in the southwest, diploma without exam ination of any kind Mir. Micheal was very glad to receive it, not only for the honor which il gave him, but also because it will not be necessary for him to take any more examina- tions

Tennis was a very popular amuse- ment during fair week. Several of the regular players stated that most of the courts were full for the big gest part of the day during the week. The tennis courts are being fixed and will be fixed up more. There has been new and finer mesh wire put up. The players certainly appreciate this, as none of them like to chase balls. They will also ap- preciate the new gates which are being put up, as they will help the matter also The defective places in the courts have been filled up with cement, this will help the players some.
 MT. Cook stated that the nets were going to be fixed up and that the courts would be swept. Several of the pupils thought typewriting and tennis a good mixture and spent their days in typeWriting and playing tennis when they were not at the fair.

If work will make a success of A
 play, the "Mikado" will be one of the biggest successes of any play ever put on by Phoenix high school pupils. The girls chorus has been practlcing every afternoon during fair week. There is a very large chorus of girls this year and it is certain that they will do their part Tn the "Mikado.' The boys prac- tced practically all of the nights rom till o'clock. There is an
 unusually small chorus of the bovs thls year, but quality will make np TOT quantity. The boys and girls taking principal parts have worked very hard, each one has spent sew eral mornings and afternoons during 1alr week trying to perfect their mart
 The cast of the "Mikado" is very line as most of them are nersons who have had some experience. If the cast is willing to spend so much tune on the practice of it nunils should be loyal enough to come and see it. 'iN
