COUNTY COUNCIL
GETS PRAISE ON
ENROLLING MEN

The County Council of Defense is in
receipt of a copy of letter from Mr.
w. E. Hall. national director of the
U. S. public service reserve at Wash
ington, in which he congratulates the
people of Arizona on the interest
taken in the shipbuilding campaign
which has been carried on the past
few weeks. Arizona has exceeded her
quota by nearly three hundred men.
The letter goes on to say that the
shipbuilding program is progressing
very satisfactorily; one hundred and
forty ships having been launched to
date, with about six hundred under
construction. There are seventy six
shipyards building wooden vessels
and fifty-four companies building steel
vessels in sixty-six yards.
A number of shipyards have agreed
to secure their labor through the U.
S. employment service. 1t is hoped
that in the near future all yards will
avail themselves of this service. AT
the present time there are 100000 men
employed in shipbuilding. 1t is ex-
pected that in six months sixty-five
thousand more men will be needed.
1t is impossible to say just when the
men who enlisted in the shipbuilders'
reserve will be called as it is the in
tention to place all the unemployed
before the rest of the reserve is
called.
The County Council of Defense has
been asked to assist the federal state

The work was so per cent more eff
ficient than imported labor, and the
demand for their services by the
ranchers was much greater than the
supply as soon as it was found that
the boys could be depended upon. The
ranchers said that the boys saved a
large percentage of their crops last
year,
Every boy should deem it his patri-
otto duty to enroll at once, to hold the
"back lines" while his brother holds
the front lines. One is as important
as the other. If the back lines" are
BROKEN" the front lines will be
broken. The boys Of Pinal county
will not allow it to be said that our
front" was broken, due to the lack
of patriotism on their part.
All eligibles should register at once
with the superintendent of the schools
or call on the chairman of the County
Council of Defense at Florence for
particulars.

VICTORY GARDENS; THEY'LL PAY

Did you know that food of all kinds
is going to increase in price from now
until the end of the war-whenever
that may be?
Did you know that despite all that
can be done to check profiteering, it
will exist to a greater or less extent
during this period?
Did you know that if there We're no
profiteering at ALL that prices are
bound to advance?
And this is one reason, at least:
Labor is scarce; it is going to be
scarcer.
War industrials have called labor
from the farms. That tends to
shorten the food supply, to increase
it's price through the application of
the rule of supply and demand.
In view of this fact, it behooves
every person who has a spare foot of
soil to get it under cultivation.
Get your victory garden under way
and don't lose any time about it..
Raise a portion of the things you are
going to eat this winter and thus cur
tail some of the high prices you are
going to pay for food.
1t will pay you to act.

HUNT HOST At
WINE SUPPER At
KEARAY, REPORT
Governor Dry in Arizona
but Wet in California;
Reisling Wine Served at
Executives Table at San
Diego May Explain ST.
lence in Scandal Case.

PHOENIX, Ariz., Mar. 29.-The
members of Governor Hunts party at
San Diego who participated in the big
booze bust there were not the only
ones who showed their contempt for
the laws of the land and the prohibi-
ton laws of the state, it was learned
today, when it developed that the gov
ernor himself was wet in California
although dry in Arizona. 1t seems
that Governor Hunt also was the host
at little party at the Grant Hotel
In San Diego at which wine was
served. It is impossible to obtain at
this writing complete list of those
present, but it is reported that as a
matter of precaution the governor
asked his soldier guests, including
Col. Harris and other members of his
staff, to sit at an adjoining table, in
order that the governor might be free
to order such liquid refreshments as
he desired for his other guests.
This may account for the action of
Governor Hunt in attempting to hush
up the disgraceful affair in Camp
Kearny which. resulted in the court
martial of the Arizona boys and the
dismissal of two of them from the
officers training camp. While news
papers all through the southwest have
been calling upon the governor to
take action which would result in the
punishment of the men concerned in
the San Diego orgy, he has steadfastly
refused to do so, although protesting
his own innocence OF any part in the
affair. According to the information
just received the governors party was
a. separate affair." but he too has been
living in the fear that this might
creep into the columns Of the press.
Reds Want Hunt Again.
A petition is about to be circulated
by the I. w. WIS in the state calling
upon Governor Hunt to again make
the race for the Democratic nomina-
ton. The reds are not satisfied with
Golfer, they know McCluskey cannot
win, and they are afraid of Moeur.
Hunt was still standing steadfastly
behind Golfer before he left for the
East, but it is believed that upon
his return he will begin to weaken
and before the legislature convenes
in special session it is believed that
Hunt will be out for another term.
Several surprises in the gubernator-
ial situation are sure to be sprung
within the next week or two and par
ticularly during the absence of Hunt
from the state, which may change
the whole lineup, dispense with all
the candidates now in the field and
force the radical element to unite
on Hunt to save the day at the pri-
mary.

Mr.. Lindley B. Orme, of Phoenix, in
enrolling all boys between the ages of
10 and 81 years. The superintendent
of the local school has been appointed
enrolment officer. This movement is
nation wide and is receiving the full
approval and endorsement of Presi-
dent Wilson.
Enrolment week was set by the
national director for the week begin
ming March Is, but all boys who are
eligible will be urged to enlist at all
times. The enrolment is strictly vol
untary and no boy will be permitted
to enroll without the consent of his
parents. The proposed plan is to
move boys under the leadership of
men of character and ability to handle
them, in squads of twenty-five or less,
from counties where there is little or
no agricultural work to counties
where there is a shortage of farm
labor. They will be placed in sani-
tary camps, given wholesome food,
military training, good entertainment,
and have an opportunity to earn
wages during their vacation.
1t will be the policy of the reserve
to insist that any boy employed on
his fathers, neighbours or guardians
farm shall remain where he is, so that
any boy already engaged in product
i've employment shall not be dis
turbed He will receive the same rec
ognition and honor as boys working
in the camps.
The boys in Yavapai and Maricopa
counties did splendid work last year
and were highly complimented by Mr.
w. E. Hall, national director. He
said: Your splendid work last year
has been an inspiration to us here
and to the other states; the story of
what the boys did in Arizona last year
has been spread to every state in the
Union"

POUND AND A HALF OF WHEAT
A WEEK LIMIT PER PERSON
New Fuel Conservation Program
Goes Into Effect Today; Meat
less Days OFF For Month

| PHOENIX, April 5.-Every person
in Arizona is to be limited to one and
half pounds of wheat a week by
the food administrators new conser-
walton program which went into effect
today.
Through the cooperation of the
hotel and restaurant division and the
10000 signers of home pledge cards
in this state the federal food admin
istration for Arizona expects to Sc
cure strict compliance with the new
program, which has been made nee
essary by the crying demands of the
allies and the fact that the present
supply of wheat cannot last until the
next harvest unless every precaution
is adopted to conserve it.
All loyal. residents of Arizona are
asked to study the principles accord
ingly. They are as follows:
FirsJ-Households shall adopt the
maximum ration for wheat flour Cor
its equivale1f, contained in Nsuch
wheat products and victory bread,
macaroni, wheat breakfast cereals,
etc., of one and one-half pounds of
wheat flour per week. Observances
of wheatless days and meals will aid
households in meeting this new re-
quirement, but are no longer obliga-
tory.
Second-Public eating places and
clubs shall adopt the same principle
as households, which in its practical
application to such places means that
they shall adopt the maximum ration
of wheat flour Cor its equivalent
contained in such wheat products as
victory bread, macaroni, etc., of six
pounds of wheat for every ninety
meals served. In addition thereto not
to serve in the aggregate total OF
any products containing more than
two ounces of wheat flour to any one
guest at any one meal.
To reconcile both these require
ments it is ruled that no wheat prod
ucts shall be served unless ordered
and the observance of wheatles days
and meals is to be continued. By
wheatless is meant no wheat flour in
any food served except that contained
in victory bread. Thus wheatless
days and meals. become optional II
households but remain obligatory as
before in public eating places an6
clubs.
\Meatless days have been suspended
for thirty days.

FLOTATION AS AN AID
TO PRoSPEcTORS ADVOCATED
Geo. r. Fansett Shows Easier Method
OF Planning BY New Method

George R. Fansett, mining engineer
of the Arizona State Bureau of Mines,
is advocating flotation as an aid to
the prospector. Mr.. Fansett has been
making a particular study of the pros
pectors' problems and believes that
many short cuts will be found that
will be of assistance. Relative to the
use of flotation, Mr.. Fansett says:
"Flotation can be used to good ad-
vantage by prospectors for the con-
centration of many minerals and the
separation of these minerals from
the bangue rock, thus accomplishing
the same result as horning and pan
ming. Many forms of valuable min
erals are far more easily concentrated
by this method than by horning and
banning. The concentrates obtained
can then be tested qualitatively and
the minerals determined in the same
manner as is the present practice
with the concentrates from panning.
For use in the field the only equip
ment needed is cylindrical tube, oil
and water.
"a glass tube about ten inches high
and about one inch in diameter with
flat bottom so that it can stand
up, is the best for use in these tests
If one of these is not available a bot
Ixybio will hn1 oh
four ounces will answer very we'll.
ANY one of the good flotation oils
will answer the needs of the pros.
pector; pine oil, eucalyptus oil, or
creosote are as good as any for this
purpose.
"The amount of mineral used for
each test is about one-fourth of an
ounce This should be pulverized
as fine as power-the finer the
better.
To make a concentration test by
this process, fill the glass cylinder
about half full of water; into this
pour about quarter iof an ounce OF
finely powdered sulphide sample. TIC
this add about one or two drops OF
oil-measure the oil by dropping
it from a dropper or stick and be
sure not to use too much oil or il
may float much of the quartz. Close
the tube with a cork or by holding
the thumb over the end of it. Shake
this mixture energetically for about
half minute. On standing there
will be noticed a tendency for the
contents to settle in layers. At the
bottom of the tube should be layer
of quartz or gangue which is much
lighter in color than the ore which
was originally put into the tube;
above this layer of slowly settling
slime of the gangue above this a
layer of sulphides. settling through
the liquid and on top of this layer
of dirty water, and finally on top of
all of these a layer of froth, which
consists of oil and air bubbles and
sulphide particles, but with no ap.
preciable amount of quartz in it. This
mixture can then be poured and
washed out into pan and the min.
eral bearing froth skinned off from
the top of the water. 1t can then be
tested with acids and the blow pipe
and the nature of the mineral deter.
mined.

get away with that job No without physical strength
would think of making for governor in both the
primary and at the general election because of the ar-

he should be well enough to his country He is not
doing by sticking to the soap box and fostering indus

into being soldier that he gives to politics and agitatg
he would be pretty good in the trenches The doc
tors may have been able to find weakness in his
