Game Season Open Oct. I.

The deer and turkey season this year opends October 1 and closes November l, with a bag limit of one deer with horns and two turkeys. For several years the open season has been from October 1 to December 15. but the voters last fall decided by ballots that the season was too long and the limit too high. In California the season is month and a half and the limit two bucks.
 The interest in big game shoot is increasing each year. Owing to the short season, many hunt CTS will likely be out at the opening.
 Shooters should not overlook the fact that the quail season does not open until October 18th. and that the country is full of game wardens and that the real sportsmen have decided this year to turn in every person they learn of who kills quail before October 18th.

CONSERVE LIVE STOCK.

Supt. J. W. Williams, of the Arizona Eastern Railroad, has issued the following regarding the conservation of live stock:
 Do you know that thousands of horses, mules, cattle, hogs and sheep are killed annually by railway trains in the country, and that this economic waste, approximately many millions of dollars. can be reduced?
 The thousands of horses and mules that are killed every year would fill the artillery require ments of many regiments, and the thousands of cattle, hogs and sheep that are killed every year would provide meat for thousands of soldiers?
 Anyone who aids in prevent ing the loss of even one animal serves his country patriotically and effectually.
 This economic waste can be reduced by:
 Owners of stock keeping their stock in fenced enclosures and not permitting their stock to roam at large on railroad right of way.
 Town officers passing ordin- ances prohibiting the practice of permitting stock to roam at large.
 Superintendents, roadmasters and section men making a per- sonal appeal to the owners of stock to keep their animals in fenced enclosures.
 Engineers taking evefy pre- caution within their power to avoid striking stock and never failing to report stock seen on right of way.
 Section men driving stock off right of way, keeping farm gates closed, and fences and cat tie guards in good repair, giving preference to locations where liability of stock getting on right of way is greatest.
 Everyone making a persist ent, personal effort to bring about desired results. The CO., operation of all concerned will be thoroughly appreciated.
 Too many cat5le are being kill ed on this division, and I am sure that if our engineers, sec- tion foremen and our good friends living along the line will observe the suggestion contain ed in the circular herein quoted, this unnecessary loss and con- waste can be almost, if not quite eliminated.

Con P. Cronin has been desig- hated by the War Department as director of the Amercan Lii brary Association whose object is to provide adequate library facilities for the soldiers in all the training camps and canton ments in the country It is pro- posed to raise 8 million dollars for the purchase of a million books for the soldiers. Through the local libraries all oyer the country it is soliciting books and magazines, but it is not expected that enough will be secured by donations. Therefore the sec retary of war has appointed library war council of ten mem bers, with Frank A. Vanderlip of New York, as chairman, to aid the association in raising the $1 100000 fund.
 Dr. A. J. Chandler of Chandler has let the contract to J. w. Martin of Los Angeles for the building of a sufficient number of concrete. ditches to irrigate 5000 acres of land lying just west of the 5000 acres put in this year by the Southwest Cot ton company. The successful esta ablishment of the 5000 acre unit planted to cotton necessi- tates this additional investment and means that vast acreage of last years desert country will add it's share to the sustaining of families and adding to the values of every acre of land and every town lot in the Salt River valley, the latter for the reason that the venture has shown what can be done in the desert with money and nerve.

THINK MONTANA COAL
: HELD ABOVE FAIR Price
State Railroad Commissioner
Hall Advances Hint
2 for Consumers.
FREIGHT TARIFF HIGH
Shows Inequalities in Com

Prices East Pays.

Helena. Sept. l.-operators of coal
mines in Montana are protesting
against the government fixing prices
for coal at mines al from >-'' /"
1896 a ton, and the railroads that are
charging from three to four cents
ton per mile for hauling are demand
ing an increase OF - cents ton Tor
ali intrastate shipments.
According to j II. Hall, railroad
commissioner for Montana, consumers
should study the available figures ola
the coal situation and then start pro-
ceedings on their own account, IL
would not take much investigation 10
convince the most of the people that
there were reasons for complaint VI
any higher price obtained Tor coal due
either to increased mining charges or
increased freight rate. h" contends.
Montana Tariffs High.
Statistics IN Mr.. HATS ottic"
showed the cost Of hauling coal ~
Montana is from t. cents per ton
a mile as compared with Il cost OF as
low as 3.7s mills in one ease and nu-
mcrous hauls less than mills In
fact. the average freight charge
through Ohio, Illinois, Indiana and
states in that section is less than
mills per ton per mile. In an areu-
ment presented to the Interstate COM
merce commission it was shown that
for one haul OF PAS miles the rat"
per ton o1 coal was Sl.25, for 400
miles the rate was s1.4o, for 429 miles
the rate was $50. Here the present
rate for a haul of about go miles is
$50 and the railroads are asking an
additional Ia cents per ton over that
rate. Even in North Dakota the rate
tor q dstanc. OF 20 miles is Sl15 per
ton.
Drops Gentle Hint

would reply if sumc consumer should
