in this grain. should have 27,4o0 more acres if she is to be independent of other states for her bread She now has a shortage of 950000 bushels, much of which comes to her in the shape Of Kansas flour. MT. Collins spoke of the world decrease of 28,000,000 dairy cattle as having a serious effect upon local conditions. Though it is true that many cows are being beefed just now, they are mainly of the 'boarder' type While there has been a decrease in the number of cows, the 1916 butterfat record of the valley of 3,SO9,740 pounds already is more than equalled in 1917 with a product of 3,SS1,332 pounds, bringing about s1,500,000 in cash to the farmers. The growing of beans was urged, for the bean, with it's great food unit value, essentially is a war necessity.
 Yuma county was represented by County Agricultural Agent w. A. Bailey and Nels Lind. who told of 27.- 900 acres of cotton and alfalfa and of difficult local conditions that must be overcome before wheat and other food
Arizona republican., 1917-11-14

stuffs can be produced in greater quantity. For Cochise county, A. L. Paschall of Wilcox made report of re- markable progress, especially in the way of dry farming, yet stated that the county now produces less than 10 per cent of the foodstuffs 1t consumes. He places emphasis on the statement that milo maize and feterita are food grains of rare value not understood by the general public. The tepery bean Is also yet to be properly appreciated. Pima county had it's representative in Secretary George Smalley of the food administration, who has been con- corning himself especially in the ex- pansion of the wheat product and who gave data of increased demands and of lessened product in Argentina, Rus- sia and Australia
 Delos Nichols. Coconino county's ag- ricultural agent, opened an interesting discussion in his report of the splen- did potato crop that has been harvest ed in his section. This, he urged, should be drawn upon for seed in the Salt River valley as well as for the food needs of Phoenix, which now is con- suming about five carloads a week. Flagstaff now has marketing com mittee, but still lacks organization for the protection of her potato growers. MT. Riordan stated this is matter that is being corrected. J. w. Rothes- berger, a Springerville miller, spoke for Apache county, which is producing practically all the grains and vege- tables consumed and which will have transportation soon for her surplus through the building of new railroad southward from Holbrook. L. Nj. liar riSon of the agricultural department assured several inqufrers that he and his division would see that pure seed grain would be furnished on request.
 Very interesting and much out of the ordinary were the remarks of l. A. Parks of the Boys and Girls clubs extension work, now under demonstra- tion at the, fair. He gave several ref erences that showed that boys could beat their elders in the way of intens i've cultivation and that Arizona girls had beaten the worlds canning record on variety and individual season quantity. D. A. Gilchrist of the bio- logical survey told how field rodent pests and rabbits had damaged Cochise county at least half a million dollars last season and now the Casa Grande valley, through rabbits, had lost s40,- 900 worth of long staple cotton. A couple of hundred prairie dogs eat as much grass as a COW. This season, five parties in northern Arizona for a while exterminated the dogs at the rate of 15,000 day.

A. Morgan ar rived in Phoenix last evening. In the course of his tour the nlustrious potentate was accompanied by Vernon L. Clark of this city, a past poten- tate of Fl Zaribah temple.
 The program for the patriotic ses sion to be held here tomorrow will be carried out as previously outlined, there being no changes from the of ficial program save the place of holding the ceremonial session and the banquet which follows. This part of the session will take place at the Phoenix armory instead of at the Masonic hall as first an- nounced.
 The session will open with the regular business session of the temple tomorrow morning at Il o'clock at the Masonic temple. The recorder will be at the Masonic temple from to 4 in the afternoon to receive petitions and issue mem bership cards. Then promptly at p. m- the nobles, attired in fez and the regulation full dress. together with host of ouaking novices, will assemble at the Masonic hall.

Science in it's most attractive and most practical form was made evident Monday night at the Women's clug, where President Dwight B. Heard of the Arizona Council of Defense had as his guests dozen fair visitors, all of them experts in one or another phase of az Ficultural development and all of them workers in the cause of Arizona's greater contribution to the worlds contribution to the worlds supplies of .oodstuffs.
 At one end of the well-laden board was Mr. Heard and at the other State Food Administrator Timothy A. Rior ian. The host had something to say concerning the great food needs of the world struggle and the part in it that should be borne by this state. James II. Collins. agricultural food expert, made the first and one of the most i'm portant addresses. covering the ques- lions that have arisen concerning ex- pansion, especially of the local acreage planted to wheat In the course of a round table discussion he developed he fact that Arizona, with 30. 900 acres

 With Mir. Fuller it was a case of love at first sight when he visited the Kissel Auto company's exhibit on the fair grounds.

 HOP|'S BREAD

Three sheets of cornbread, red,
 white and blue, are on display in
 the domestic science department of
 the state fair. The flakey bread six
 by nine inches in size and hardly
 half an inch in thickness, was baked
 by the Hopi Indians and is one of
 the fine examples of Hooverism in
 the department Cooked on hot
 stone, the bread is said to be de-
 licious.
 While food conservation was not
 in the mind of many who exhibited,
 the returns from the cakes. pies and
 sweets on display warranted the lack
 of consideration of MT. Hoover's plea
 to refrain from the use of flour in
 that the sale of the food up to date
 which sum will be multiplied many
 times before the close of the fair. One of the exhibits that caused comment and inquiry by the house. wives, is a vegetable pudding made by Mrs. T. N. Streff who generously offered the recipe. The pudding contains the follow ing:
 One cup ground carrots (raw). One cup ground potatoes. One cup raisins. One and one-half cups bread crumbs.
 One tablespoon shortening. Two teaspoons mixed spices. One cup flour. One-half cup sugar and one-half cup syrup, or one cup sugar. If the pudding is half as good as | it looks, it is delicious, according to | the visitors in the council of defense l building, where the domestic science exhibits are housed. Mrs. P. M. Johnson won the first prize for fruit cake and the award | is the fifth she has received for 1 fruit cake at an Arizona fair. | Here, as in other departments, h. | dian girls have won many prizes. | Mrs. E.

You first note the distinctive body styles. There are eight new types of bodies, and each one IS exclusive.
 That IS because we have our own body plant. We have our own artists and experts.
 Before designing a body they ex- anime every like-type body built. And all their best attractions are combined with ours.
 Then OUT own body plant saves us much on each car. And that entire saving goes into luxuries and beauties which very few cars afford.

ket, were discovered at small town
near that city, where they had been
side tracked and left to rot at time
when potatoes were selling at $500 a
bushel.
For a number of years now we have
been learning of the wilful destruction
every season Of such commodities as
potatoes, cabbage, melons, apples, and
other fruits, when there was an oppor-
tunity by so doing to force prices up in
the interest of the spectators.
These food pirates have purchased
acres and acres of fruit on the trees
and then refused to allow them to be
picked kept them there to rot-in or
der to keep them from the open market.
In other ways the campaign Of pill
age and loot at the expense of the con-
sumner has been going merrily on.
OF course, merely to designate the
perpetrators Of these outrages as rob
bers and pirates does not one particle of
good except to afford some slight relief
to our own feelings. There seems to
be nothing the country can do to pre-
vent these outrages.
But there should be, and if we mis-
take not the temper Of the American
people, there soon will be.
1t is time for congress to enact ade-
quate laws whereby the president can
once and for all put an end to this ham
stringing and strangling of the Amer
lean consumer.
