HARRY WHEELER IS
 NOW ARMY CAPTAIN

Harry Wheeler, sheriff of Cochise county, Arizona, has received a com mission as captain of cavalry and will be assigned to the 30Sth United States cavalry to be organized at Douglas, it was announced here today. Sheriff Wheeler planned and directed the de portation of the 1,2OO men from Bis bee, July l2, 1917.
 He was an enlisted man in the cav airy at one time, having been dis charged because of physical disability. He was also captain of the Arizona rangers and has made frequent at temps to enter the officers training camps at San Francisco, San Antonio and other places. He also attempted to enlist in the Canadian army, but was rejected because of wounds he re- ceived during his ranger career.

CANADA COPS CONTRACTS

Canada is now supplying to the United States shells, forgings, cart ridge cases, and airplanes, according to a statement of Newton ROweu, president of the Canadian Cabinet Privy Council. Canada has also re- ceived orders for millions of tons of steel and wooden ships, and they are already at work to fill orders. Canada is going to help us catch up for the days we lost when "he kept us out of war;, and if the shipping board does not get down to cases perhaps Canada will help up build our ships. The greatest industrial nation on earth, drugged by the language of lotus eaters, must turn to it's neighbors in it's hour of danger, and, like Caesar, cry, "Help me Cassius, or l sink"

the big guns today. Am assigned to the 9th regiment, U. s. engineers; they are regulars. Don't know which company yet. The regiment is scatter ed all over and if I get one of the companies some place else will move again, although not far. Part of them are putting up hospitals and some other buildings. 1 hope to get assigned to one of those companies.
 A year ago today l walked from Greenlaws to Flag in the snow. Do you remember? Wish l could do that today. It isn't so bad here though. Am getting three squares most every day and five baths one week and none the next. Five meals some days and ons the next, but it averages up % three squares and the regulation amount of baths. Heard a new story. Will pass it on if it will do you any good. A soldier in the hospital was asked how he got hurt. He said that he was leaning against the artillery barrage and it lifted and he fell in ditch.
 We are having fine weather here. About like late November around Flag. They say it is a rather early spring here. Its all right with me too, for fuel is d. scarce in this country. Havn't seen a Buic keither since left N. Y. We have lots of Fords though and a few Dodges. The gen erals use S-cylinder Nationals. The Lieuts. use two good feet. N. Y. Her aid and the Chicago Tribune publish a small edition in Paris. We get it here every morning. Fine dope to get a U. s. daily over here, with U. S. do- ings, etc, in it. Have not heard from the U. S. A. yet, but think when get located, which will be in the next | three days, will be able to get mail | 
 Well it's about time soldiers were in | bed, so l will have to quit. Write me when you have little time. My ad- dress is in full on the upper left hand | corner of the envelope. Three cents | will bring letter.
 Yours,

CAPT. TEMPLE ON DUTY AGAIN

Captain Oscar F. Temple once more is connected with the military depart ment of the state of Arizona as cap tain ouartermaster with the reserve battalion.
 For several years Captain Temple has held that office iR Arizona, being a retired nOn-commissioned officer of the regular army, having served thirty years with Uncle Sam's forces. Last year Captain Temple was re- called to active duty and given a commission as first lieutenant. He was detailed for duty with the hospi- tai corps.
 At his own request Capt. Temples resignation was accepted and he was once more placed on the retired list, assuming his former position with the state of Arizona. He returned on Sat urday from Camp Cody, Deming, New Mexico-Arizona Republican.

SOME BRANCHES ARE OPEN
 EVEN TO DRAFTED MEN

The aviation section, ordnance de- partment, and some other branches of the army are open to registered men not actually called for army duty. According to rulings recently received from the provost marshal general, such registered men may en- list in these departments.
 The rules permitting the release of men not called for a current quota had been interpreted by some boards as meaning that registrants likely to be called at any time during the sec- ond draft should not be allowed to enlist. Delinquents and registrants who have been ordered by the boards to report for military duty are alone barred from enlistment.
 Candidates for special branches of the service must first secure an order from the proper military authorities. Local boards, upon presentation of such letters are instructed to examine the registrant for physical defects, and if qualified, to inChct him into service. If the registrant is away from home, a transfer may be secured from the board of origin. The new rules provide that induction orders need not be sent to military authori- ties for endorsement.
 This explanation of the rules will do much, officials declare, to clear up confusion regarding enlistments and to free men from the draft who may wish to enter a special branch.

peaks. In the northeastern counties the precipitation was rather light, while in the southern part of the state and in western New Mexico there was practically no rainfall. Considered from every point of view the week was most favorable for live stock.
 At such widely separated points as Springerville, Naco, Prescott and Blackberry, Ariz., the condition of stock is reported as good and improv- ing; in parts of Apache, Mohave, Pin al and Yuma counties, as fair and inn proving; in western New Mexico and in parts of Cochise and Coconino counties, as fair, but thus far no change apparent.

IN THE ABSENCE OF
 THE DEATH PENALTY

In the face of the many cold-blood- ed murders that have been committed in Arizona during the past year, no doubt a great many who voted at the last election to abolish capital punish ment would be glad now to reverse their ballot were the opportunity of fered them. The recent killing of the sheriff and his deputies in Graham county by outlaws is but another of many horrible murders committed during the past twelve months. In this county there have been several; the last being an automobile owner who was hired by his murderer to take him on a business trip through southern Arizona. A few miles west of Douglas the auto owner was mur- dered, and the murderer proceeded on his way to the capital in the Ford ma chine. Here he was captured, and is now in prison.
 Is it not about time for someone to start petitions for the reinstatement of adequate punishment in this state for -blooded murder? It would seem that the people of the state have followed Governor Hunt quite far enough in his maudlin sentiment about reforming those who shed the blood of their fellow-men without cause. If the murderers of the Graham county officials are captured alive, they will know that the greatest punishment possible for them under the present laws of Arizona will be an easy life and entertainment in the Florence penitentiary, at least so long as the Hunt policy towards murderers obtains in the state, instead of being swung into eternity, as they deserve and the future safety of our citizens demands.

GET THOSE HENS

The County Council of Defense be
 gan its first active work last week
 by having two four-minute talks or
 production and conservation. Many
 opportune suggestions can be made at
 this time. When considering the home as unit one thing stands out most
 in my mind: Get some hens and get them now. If bought at once they will become accustomed to the change dur ing the remaining cold weather. When the warm days come they will begin laying at once. If you wait they will be idle when they should be produc- ing.
 Every home Sin this county should have at least five or more hens. If small back yard and but few peo- pie in the family, cut down the num- Der. Do not have too many and over crowd them, but get some by all means.
 Be a producer if only small amount. Individual effort is a wonder ful thing. With but a few meatless days surplus was secured in beef and mutton and big increase in pork. By producing your own eggs means just that much more for the soldiers in some form of food. This will en- able the big poultry raisers to send their eggs elsewhere.
 If 800 families each with five hens and get two eggs a day, it gives total of 1000 eggs, 10000 for one month and 180,000 for six months during our warmer weather. That would serve a good bunch of soldiers for breakfast, not to mention what could and is being done in other coun- ties with but little effort. At the end of the laying season those hens will furnish meat enough for 800 small families for five Sunday dinners.
 These are small things, but irI taken collectively they amount to a great deal. Why is it that a foreigner usually gets on we'll in this country |? They are here but a short time until they own their own homes and have little money besides. The secret is that they watch the little things and stop up the money leaks. The average American pokes the hole larger and the leak becomes a stream.
 Inquiries have been made as to where 150 hens can be obtained. Let ters have been written to the south ern part of the state to locate poultry for sale. One or two shipments have l already been received and a number

DON'T CLOG THE MACHINERY

If your neighbor is prosperous, let him prosper. Do not growl or grumble.
 Say good word for him and let it go at that. Do not be a knocker.
 If you see that the town is moving along nicely, feel good about it. Help things along.
 Shove a little.
 Push! Try and secure some of the benefit yourself.
 Do not stand around like cadaver. Do not waste time feeling sore be- cause some fellow has Q little more sand and sense than you. \ Do little hustling yourself. If you can say good word, say it like a prince. If you are full of bile and disposed to say somthing mean, keep your mouth closed.
 No man ever became rich and hap py minding anybody's business save
  his own.
 No man ever helped~ himself up permanent by knocking his neighbors down.
 Give kind word. Give it liberal ly. It will not cost cent and you may want one yourself some day. If you want to throw something at somebody, throw cologne or roses. Do not throw brickbats or mud. If you must kick, go behind the barn and kick your self. For if you feel that way you are the man who needs kick ing.
 But, whatever you do, do not be a knoCker.
 You cannot afford it. It will not pay. There is nothing in it.
