The plan is to have every threshel

and food administrator of the exact
number of bushels he threshes dur
ing the season, listing the amounts
by farms upon which his outfit has
worked. In this way the government
can get an exact line on the wheat
production, if it becomes necessary
to use such information to prevent
boarding. The statement issued to
the threshers by the food admins
tor and farm agent of Grady is as
follows:
About a month ago each of you
were sent a regulation report book
upon which you should have reported
your seasons threshing. Up to this
time not one of these reports have
peen received.
1T is necessary for the successful
of the war that this ma
tion knows how much wheat is
available, and for this reason you
were sent this book, made out as the
Department directed and your report
should have been in before this.
ut is hoped that this was an over
sight on your part and that the re-
port will be received in a few days
so that the number of bushels of |
wheat and other grain raised in
Grady county may be reported to the
Department at Washington.

plenty of shade and room for camping
purposes and an abundance Of good
water

This woik has been delayed on account of the absence of the bridge foreman who has been engaged elsewhere. He is expected to start work on the bridge within the next day or so.
 There are now 42 men at the camp and arrangements are being made for the taking care of about ten more. There are this many now in jail await ing sentence so that the camp will now have plenty of men for the next few months to complete the work mo Tombstone. With the opening of the new road to travel and the big h:li out of Tombstone will be avoided. rhe old road to the site of the new camp has been put in shape for travel by Engineer Cy Perkins.

GUY WEIGH CANDIDATE FOR COUNTY TREASURER

Under the heading of Political An nouncements" in this paper today will be found the announcement of Guy C. We,ch who seeks the democratic nomination for the office of county treasurer at the ensuing primary cleo ton. This will be no surprise as it has been understood that Alr Welch would aspire for that position.
 MT. Welch has filled the position of under sherin for six years and a half. entering the sherin's office when liar " C. Wheeler was elected sheriff at the first state election. He is regard ed as one of the best clerical men around the court house and one oc- casion when the state examiner has always received high commendation for his efficiency. When D. II. John son examined the sherims office in 1914 he made the following comment We wish tO commend the office af- fairs of this department as being prob ably the best conducted sherin's of flee in the state.'
 The result was the same when the present state examiner made an eX- animation of the sherif's onice last April. Nr ROundtree then said Mir Welch vas deserving of much credit for the efficient manner in which he conducted the office. He is now sery- ing as sherih filling out the uneXpired term of Mir Wheeler
 Mir Welch has been a resident of the counIv for a number of years. He was in the employ of the Copper Queen store 4t NacO for some time and was then manager of the Hereford ranch for W. C. Greene and then went into the sheiih'a office as stated above. He has hosts of friends throughout the county who will rally to his support for his candidacy for treasurer.

HEADS LIST
 0F MEN FURNISHED

AriZona's leading position in having furnished more men for the army and navy of ;he United States, according to population, than any other state in the union. is clearly shown in the Ma tional Quota Sheet of June 1, which has just been received at the office of Adjutant General Charles W. Harris, at the state house.
 The sheet shows that just before the call of May 27. there were in all the United States 1.232,0S6 men in Glass l. A comparison of the number O. men in Class 1 in each state shows plainly that in a majority of the states the number of men placed in Class 1 is very low, especially when the num- ber placed in that class in Arizona is considered.
 Had other states equaled the record of Arizona in proportion to population. there now would be 5000 900 men in the service.
 This report gives Arizona an ex- cess of 5S2 men over our proportion due under the last call."' said Colonel Harris yesterday. "The reason for this is because the last call was based on the old estimate of population and the call is made on that estimate But these figures are based on the new law which bases the call on the number of men placed in Class l."
 The last call. which was filled May 27, took on an average a little more than 50 per cent of all men in Class in the United States, according to this quota sheet just received.

EASON WILL OPPOSE
 QUEEN TEAM TODAY;
 PLAY CALLED AT 2:30

The Copper Queen and Junction Briggs teams of the Warren district baseball league will battle this after noon at 2:3O at the Warren ball or chard and a large crowd is expected since it ;5 change day.
 The near-invincible Queen nine was bumped by Nasty Bidwell Wednesday for the second time and since Eason stood the C. & A. batters on theI heads a week ago Manager Cal Earth man of the functions expects to cop today as Eason is slated to puzzle the Queen clubbers.
 Manager Fred Carnes of the Queen had not named his pitching selection last night but Iriones or Campbell will probably get the call with Ferd Han son and Lefty COuthran bringing up the reserves.
 Iriones hurled against the functions in their last meeting and did a neat job of the slab work on that occasion for the four frames that he toiled. The former Western leaguer is now becOm- ing acclimated and will no doubt pitcn even better ball in his next starts. Campbell finished that game and was hit hard in one inning but errors really were responsible for a majority of the counters tallied off his chucking.
 The last two games played in the league have been the best of the year and indications point to a better brand of baseball for the balance of the season.
 Wolgamot, clever army catcher from Douglas, will be behind the plate today and this will remedy the most glaring defect shown in the Junction armor in a majority of the games lost A good catcher is the most essential part to a ball club and high clas pitch ing comes next Without good catch CT one cannot have first flight twirling and had Wolgamot been receiving Eason would not have lost several con tests charged against him
 The Queen team is still strong de- spite the loss of Stadelli and despite the fact that Bidwell, regular pitcher ripe for league company, has defeated them both times he has faced them They can be expected to give the fans a run for their money every time out and on paper figure to have the strong est team in the league.
 Today's game should be a hummer if the clubs play up to form and if Eason can repeat his fine work of week ago he may administer the same dose of whitewash to the Queens that he handed the C. & A. with his auto graph compliments just to show he did not have any hard feelings.
 Pitman will probably not be able to play today and if not Barnhill will be in the game in left field. His fea- ture catch and great peg to the plate were among the sensational stunts pulled by the functions Sunday. Pit man is a long distance hitter who slams them often and a neat fielder, and when he gets back in the game regular the club will be much stronger.
 The lineUps as announced by the rival managers for today follow:
 Queen: Hesse, cf; Carnes. 2b; Will son, 3b: Whaling, 1b; Krigbaum. ss: Deardorf, If; Pitman or BaruhilL If:
