Mites Are Blood Suckers.
Mites are more troublesome and
more harmful than lice. They do not
live upon the birds like the lice, but
during the day hide in the cracks and
crevices of the roosts and walls of the
house. and at night they come out and
get upon the fowls. They suck the
hens blood, and if allowed to become
plentiful-as they certainly will If not

health and consequently her ability to

a few thorough applications of kero'
sene or some of the coal-tar products
which are sold for this purpose, or
crude petroleum, to the interior of the
poultry house. The commercial tar
products are more expensive but
retain their killing power longer, and
they may be cheapened by reducing
with an equal part of kerosene. Crude
petroleum will spray better If thinned

NEW LICE REMEDY KILLS
FOR HALF A CENT A BIRD.

Sodium fiuorid, a white pow
der, will destroy all the lice on a
fowl. 1t is a new and effective
remedy. One application, cost
ing about half a cent a bird, does
the work. Full directions for
applying it are given in a publi-
cation of the United States De-

tells how to keep the poultry

SOCIALIST PRESS GAGGED AND
LEADERS JAILED IN FIGHT
TO END STRIKE.

Copenhagen, Feb. A copy or a
pamphlet issued by the Independent
Socialists, which reached Copenhagen,
shows tina the strike in Germany was
prepared by them. The pamphlet
points out that the Pan-Germans have
brought the peace negotiations and
the future of Germany into great dan
ger.
Admiral Won Tirpitz. leader of the
Fatherland party, after an interview
with the imperial chancellor, declared
that he was satisfied with the govern
ment's plans concerning the east. Such
a declaration. says the pamphlet,
proves that the government is in col
fusion with the advocates of violence,
and Just at this moment the Reichstag,
the only place where the annexation
list policy could BIZ attacked, is closed
and other means Of criticism made I'M
possible by the government.
"Our press is gagged, our comrades
are imprisoned, and the factories to a
still greater extent are materialized,"

only a peace without indemnities

when you must raise your voice for
such a peace"
Amsterdam.-The Rhenische West
falische Zeitung publishes a Munster
dispatch dated Feb. l, reproducing a
proclamation issued by the deputy
commanding general, in which he
says:
Germany is face to face with her
hour of destiny. Her enemies have
abandoned hope of victory by arms
and are now trying to SOW dissension
in our ranks.
81 raise my warning voice and ask
you to consider what will happen If
our front begins to totter. Political
resistance must and will, in all cir
cumstances, be smashed. Germany
must not experience such conditions
as the Russian revolution produced"
The worst disturbances we're in the
Moabit Dill, where crowds of strikers
attempted to overturn street cars The
police interviewed and were resisted
by the strikers, collisions occurring.
There were stormy scenes also in
North Berlin, and in East Berlin
youths and girls crowded the streets,
climbed on street cars and wrested
the controllers from the motormen or
overturned the cars.

whom she knows to be agents of the

claiming Madam Who which is Miss

role far different from any in which
she has appeared heretofore, a role
which while brimful of dramatic Incl
dents of the most thrilling nature, Off
ers her opportunities for dis playing a
rare historic ability far beyond those
of her previous screen achievements.

MAR RECIPE BOOK ISSUED BY GIRLS
 COOKING CLASSES

Under the expert direction of Miss Manley, the cooking department of the Phoenix high school has grown into one of the most important and useful organizations in the school.
 When a girl passes the final examin- ations in cookery at Phoenix high school she is prepared for any emer- gency in the art of cooking that ordin- arily comes up. She is able to prepare a delectable meal out of only few vegetables and raw material. And fin ally she is well schooled in the setting and decorating of the table and, mak- ing the food set out appear to it's best advantage.
 Not long ago the girls, with the in- dispensable aid of Miss Manley pre- pared book of recipes This book contains recipes for the making of all kinds of dishes from foods that Hoover says is safe to use. It gives many recipes for the making of wheatless bread and meatless steaks. By the aid of this little handbook the housewife may feed her family upon nourishing food that in no way infringe or even touch the food laws.
 A short time ago Miss Manley re- ceived letter from the food admin lstratlon of Arizona congratulating heI upon the work and urging her to place the books on the market. This latter suggestion Miss Manley has followed and the books of recipes are now or lsale>-for. a nominal sum. y-F-------, The cooking department of Phoeni2 hlgh school promises to do great things Tn the future, but they will have to gc l some to do better than they have don.

 IF LUNCHEON CLUB

The usual weekly meeting of the Brotherhood Luncheon club will be held today at the usual hour, 12:15, at the Y. M. c. A. This meeting will be of more importance than any of the others for a more complete organization and statement of the purposes of the club, as well as a name for it, will be considered. The club had a very informal beginning. A small group of men met for the purpose mainly of talking on the subject of civic betterment or rather civic cleanliness. Though it has been hardly two months since those meetings began, the scope and the at tendance have increased. Another meeting time will also probably be determined upon today.
 There is always some principal speaker. The chief speaker today will be Lieutenant Paul Popenoe who will speak on the efforts of the war de- partment to suppress venereal dis eases and to make legalized prosti- tuition a thing of the past. Lieuten- ant Popenoe for some months has been directing the work in the south west with great success. Lately he said that while the present genera ton would derive great benefit from

CITIZENS MEET ID
 DISCUSS BUSINESS

TEMPE, April 6.-An enthusiastic meeting of the citizens of Tempe who are interested in the sub- division of the school land west of Tempe was held Thursday evening in the city hall. Mayor Dimes presided. Engf- neer knipe who has surveyed the land and made a plat, told of the plan, and it was heartily sanctioned by those present. The sentiment of all those who have looked into the matter is that the section be divided into small tracts of a few acres and not more than one tract be sold to a person.
 Mayor Dimes appointed c. w. Mill Ter and J. C. Goodwin a committee to confer with the commissioners about the land and plans. This is one of tho most important moves Tempe has made for some time, and everyone who has the interest of the town at heart should approve of this plan.

 Mcdonald who is a consumptive, told a convincing story of accepting the in- vitation of James Mclaughlin to motor with him from California to Phoenix and save the expense of railroad fare When the county officers arrested Me Laughlin who was driving a truck con- taining 19 cases of liquor, Mcdonald was also taken into custody. He de- clared that at the time he accepted the invitation he had no knowledge that Mclaughlin was a bootlegger. The latter recently pleaded guilty in the superior court and is now serving a years sentence in the county jail. McDonald has grown steadily worse since his confinement in a cell.
