"OVER THE TOP"
The Grand Santa Cruz Club Carnival
 Is a Big Success.

l The Grand Carnival for the 1 benefit of the Santa Cruz Club, staged for last night and to- night; at the Town Hall, is go, ing lover the top" in leaps and bounds, socially and financially.
 The mammoth street parade yesterday afternoon was easily l the most spectacular ever wit messed in Nogales, the most at- tractive feature being the cages of wild animals and their train CTS.
 Many attractive floats and the Fire Department headed by Act ing Chief Curtis and exChief Mix, helped to make the parade, ! which was led by those past masters in the art of entertain ing, Doc Gustetter and Bob Lee, big success.
 Last night the lid was off" at the Town Hall, where hundreds of soldiers and civilians, vied with one another in havingRgoo time and assisting in getting the money"
 From cellar to roof, the home of the Santa Cruz Club, was crowded with merry makers, who had the time of their lives. "They rambled and they gam bled till the dealers cut 'em down." or until the strong arm of the law, headed by Mrs. Wirt G. Bowman, and her lovely assistants, raided the place and hustled the whole gang, dealers and players, to jail. All were released after being fned-ten cents each. Chief Fowler, who knows, says many of the offen- ders, should have te2n sent up for life.
 There were booths everywhere presided over by the fairest of the fair, and handsome, courteous gentlemen, Bracey Curtis, Bob Lee, Harry Karns, George Butler, Louis Hudgin, MT. Corl, Wirt Bowman, Mayor Clagett, Leslie Hardy, and many others, who took the money with the grace of Robin Hood.
 There was dancing and feast ing, and, yes, love making too.
 ThereIl be more of everything again tonight, at the same time and place.
 You'll be sorry if you miss any part of it.
 Come and have a bully good time

IMPORTANCE OF TIN IN THE WAR

Each day war necessities are educa ting the American people to new habits of thrift. This was pointed to today by the local manager of the Standard Oil Company, MT. Bosch, when he referred to economies being made by his company to help conserve the supply of tin.
 Heretofore large quantities of Pearl Oil (kerosene) have been sold in one and five gallon tin cans, but this practice is being discouraged to save tin.
 The same Pearl Oil heretofore sold extensively in tins is car ried in bulk by dealears and can can be purchased from them at small money saving as we'll as at saving in tin for the na- tion'S needs.
 So important is this matter of tin conservation that it is the patriotic duty of every Amer ican to conserve the supply as far as possible, and one way of doing this is to buy kerosene and like commodities in bulk in stead of in tin cans.

HEIRS GET eACA FLOAT LAND

The lands of Baca float No. 3, comprising 99, 289 acres and valu- ed at million dollars, which have been in controversy be- tween the Baca heirs and the settlers for years were awarded to the heirs yesterday at o'clock by Judge Bledsoe in the federal court, says Thursdays Tucson Citizen. The lands are located in the Santa Cruz valley. The issue of process against the set- tiers will be withheld for re- asonable time in order to give the litigatantS an opportunity to arrange a compromise between themselves.
 The decision goes the whole length and sustains the report of Special Master Ed win F. Jones in every particular Judge Bledsoe approved the masters findings and declared that the ground had been thoroughly covered from all angles and that in view of this he would not grant a motion for an appeal nor a writ of error. All appeal might be secured by application to the circuit court, he said if the defendants and their attor- neys so desired.
 The suits were entitled Watts and Davis vs. George Atkinson. and others; James F. Bouldin and others, vs. Joseph Aguayo and others.
 In discussing the case Judge Bledsoe stated that the statute of limitations did not begin to run until the government survey was approved and filed, which was done in 1914. He concluded that the plaintiffs had not been guilty of laches such as would prevent the court enforcing their rights.

Farming Notes
our efforts

This heading is only to remind
YOU that we are going to put our
efforts behind the farmer and give
him the best that we have. Our
idea is that the farmer must sue
coed first to make things go just
right, yet, on the other hand, it is
also to the farmers interest to
make the town boom, so as to make
his field better for selling his pro-
duce. Without good town farm
ers cannot be successful. The in
stallation and operation of our new
linotype will make this feature a
good one.
