ages to Boys In France

The following important information
has been made known to the local
postoffce by higher authorities and
will be of special interest to the pub
lie as it affects them.
Office of the Post Master General
Washington, March %, 1918.
."Order No. 1859:
On and after April 1, 1918, parcels
for members and individuals connected
with the American Expeditionary
Forces in Europe shall not be accepted
for making or dispatched unless they
contain such articles only as are being
sent at the written request of the adj
dreasee, approved by his regimental
or higher commander or an executive
officer of the organization with which
he is connected.
A. S. Burleson, Postmaster Gen.
The approved written request must
be enclosed in each parcel sent. On
the outside of the parcel should be the
following Endorsements: "This parcel
contains only articles sent at approved
request of addressee, which is en-
closed"
This ruling no doubt, seems harsh
to some and will deprive countless
r1lnber Of the pleasure of being able
to send tokens to their soldiers. Mill
tary necessity forced this law into
being. The stupendous task of trans
porting soldiers and supplies over seas
cannot be hindered if effective work is
to be accomplished. If the boats arc
filled with unnecessary parcels, space
is wasted where every inch counts. Z
our boys need anything, all they have
to do is to ask for it and they can
have it. Is it not better to know that
something useful and necessary cal
be sent, rather than guess at what che
needs z" The very fact that sre
law has been made cannot but brin.
comfort as it shows how we'll care
for by the government our boys are.
Practically every need, except
home touch of letters is supplied by
the government.

fall off in flesh and milk and de.
creases the value of the hide The
beef in the immediate vicinity of the
grub becomes Shiny and of a green
ish color, and is known to the butch
ers as clicked beef"
The total loss to this country on &C.
count of the MARBLE fly is estiated to
be from $5O,0O0,OO0 to $75,O0O,0OO a
year.
The question now is, what can we
do? The best way to locate the grub
is by passing the hand over the backs
of the animals; the swellings ars
readily found. Pressure properly APP
piled to the swellings may cause the
grub to pop out" if they have reach
ed late stage of developments care
should be taken to destroy all grubs
so as to present them from Matching
into flies. The cattle should be ex-
amined every week so none will
escape.
They may also be treated by using
small oil can to force kerosene into
the opening which will kill the grub
This treatment is less certain and the
dead CRIB is still under the hide.
By the careful attention of each and
every farmer to his cattle now and in
years to come, this much dreaded in
sect pest may be stamped out.
viii you help? Look your stock
over now and once every two weeks
through out the spring and summer.

 factors which will make for increased or decreased cost of production of next years harvest.
 "In giving a guaranteed price for wheat one year in advance, (the only industry guaranteed price by the gov ernment), there is involved a cOnsid- erable national risk If there should be peace or increased shipping avail able before the middle Of 1920, Europe will naturally supply itself from the large stores of much cheaper wheat now in the southern hemisphere; and, therefore the government is undertak- ing a risk which might in such an event result in a national loss of as much as $500, 0,000,0 900 through an un- surmountable surplus, or. in any event, in maintaining a high level of price to our own people for a long period sub sequent to freedom in the worlds market.
 Despite this, the desirability of as surfing a supply to the world of prime breadstuffs by insuring <ne farmers against the fluctations in price would result from the uncertainties of the present situation and from the specu- lation those uncertainties entail, seems to me to make the continuation of the guarantee for another year desir- able On the other hand it is clear that before increasing the burden or the consumer, the matter should be subjected to searching inquiry at the appropriate time-the time when the pertinent factors will be known.
 q feel confident that with this pre- liminary fixed guarantee and with the assurance that justice will in any event be done to the grower. he will continue the fine, patriotic efforts by which he has served the country hith- erto; that the government will have acted prudently and that the consumer will be satisfied that his interests are not unduly sacrificed, but just and ex- haustive consideration given to every element of the matter at the proper time"

LETTER FROM FIRE ALARM.

Mrs. Blanch c. Baker of Warren has received a letter from Phoenix that was sent through the fire alarm sys- tenn of that city, according to the fol- lowing story that was recently printed in the Phoenix Republican:
 "The fire department was called out twice yesterday
 "One call was to First avenue and Washington street. The -firemen could see no fire, but in the fire alarm box they found a letter. The letter was stamped and addressed to Mrs. Blanch c. Baker, Warren, Ariz. It was placed there by somebody thinking the alarm box was a mail box The person opened the box, placed the letter inside and pulled the hook that sounds the alarm. Fire Chief William Simmons wrote a letter to Mrs. Baker, saying to please instruct her friend not to post any more letters in fire alarm boxes. then sent. both letters on their way through the U. s. mails.
 "The other alarm came from the box at First street and East Wash ipgton. When the No. l equipment arrived, a Mexican was standing at the fire alarm box. He was asked by a fireman: Did you pull that bell?'

MUST HAVE LICENSE BEFORE SHIPPING
 HAY IN THIS STATE
FOOD FOR ANIMALS TREATED LIKE THAT FOR HUMAN CON SUMPTION UNDER NEW FED- ERAL LAWS GOVERNING SALES AND HANDLING OF ALL FOODS

FLAGSTAFF, Sept. g. The United States food administration has writ ten a letter to the federal food ad- ministration for Arizona, calling his attention to the fact that there are many persons other than farmers in Arizona who are engaged in shipping hay who have not taken out a federal license.
 The food administration regulations are very explicit that all dealers in hay with the exception of farmers ship ping hay produced by themselves must take out a license. Those who have failed to do so should apply at once to the license division of the United States food administration Washing ton. D. c.
 Many farmers are subject to license The mere fact that a dealer is a farm CT. does not exclude him from taking out the required license. Only farm CTS shipping hay produced by them selves are exempt.

 A barrage preceded the infantry men in the night assault, the artillery succeeding in clearing the machine gun nests ahead on the hills. The chief source of annoyance to the Americans came from machine guns on the Bois De Beaumont to the south ward. where the artillery had difficul- ty in shooting them out because of the dense woods.
 Soon after the American barrage be- gan, German bombing aviators started operations, endeavoring to locate the advancing infantrymen by using the direction of the German machine gun flashes as a guide to the desired tar gets. The bombing aviators came out in greater numbers than at any time since the Americans made their at tack north of Soissons.
 Many of the wires the Americans had to overcome were new, represent ing recent work by the Germans. while otheres were rusty, having stod since the French strung them some years ago.

HART AT EAGLE.

When William S. Hart appears at the Eagle today in "The Bargain" a W. H. production. it will be a most interesting and difficult role. It is a part such as only a few of our pres ent day actors would be capable of in terpreting, for it requires not only an accurate knowledge of western GUS toms, but also a broad sympathy and understanding of human nature.
 "Two-gun" Stokes. bandit, outlay, terror of Arizona. is the character that Mir. Hart portrays. The character sounds like a thriller of the old days, but in the hands of MT. Hart it be- comes something entirely new. some thing which sounds paradoxical-a good, bad man. He is a had man. who is straight in spite of being crooked, and who has a sense of honor in spite of the fact that he holds up the stage.

He's a young cyclone when he gets into action-hence the name. Beverly Rayne playes the village belle. The scenes are laid in a tiny hamlet in the Southern mountains. Emotions are real in Yellville, and no time is wasted in ccncealing them.
