Walter Rehrens, formerly of
NOgales, Now Serving the
Great Cause of Democracy in
the United States Navy.

This morning The Oasis is af-
forded a real pleasure in pre-
>senting lifelike portrait of Mr..
Walter Behrens, formerly re-
siding in Nogales, who is serv~
ing now in the United States
Navy, aboard the U. S. S. ,Tay-
lor. While residing here Mr.
Behrens' was a member of the
Nogales police force, where he
made a fine reputation as q
careful, conscientious officer
In November, 1917, Mr.. Behrens
married Miss Elizabeth McMa-
hon of Nogales, and since he
entered the Navy there has
been born Of the union a baby
girl whom the sailor father has
never seen. Had he been taken
in the selective draft Mr.. Beh-
rens could have plead the anti
cipated advent of that baby as
an excuse for exemption; but
thank God, Nogales has had but
one miscreant of that stamp.
Behrens is not that kind.
Seaman Behrens is 27 years
of age, but this is not his first
enlistment in the Navy, as he
had served aboard ship fol
Uncle Sam eight years before
coming to Nogales.

his sleep, and had been dead but
a short time when Mr.. Deegan

A SAD DEATH
End of a Pathetic Romance oi,
the Old South.

Sunday morning the local
news columns Of The Oasis
made mention of the issuance
of a marriage license to Paul
Forster and Lizzie Murray, both
of Duquesne. The couple were
married Saturday afternoon.
Yesterday morning Mrs. Fors
ter was found dead in bed.
Thus ends pathetic romance
of the Old South. Lizzie Muir
ray and Paul Forster were
friends and playmates in child
hood in Alabama. The former
was a paralytic from early
childhood.
In late years Mr.. Forster
came to Arizona and is a trust
ed employe of the Duquesne
Mining Co. Learning that the
parents of Lizzie, who was 40
years old at the time of her
death, had died and that she had
not the thoughtful care she de-
served, he prevailed upon her to
come to Arizona and promised
to care for her the remainder of
her days. 1t was a case of true
friendship ripened by years and
the misfortunes of one of them.
She came to him and it was de-
cided that the better course
would be to get married, and
that was the object of their Wis
it to Nogales Saturday. Mrs.
Forster could not walk without
assistance but she was cheerful
and happy again In the COM
panionship of her childhood
playmate.
Sunday they returned to Du-
ouesne and all was well. Yes
terday morning Mr.. Forster
went to his work as usual, leav-
ing Mrs. Forster in bed. Soon
afterward a messager went to
him with the news that the OBJ
iect of his great good hearted
ness had passed away and was
free from the pain and suffer
ing she had cheerfully contend
ed with for so many years.
Today the once afflicted body
will be laid to rest in the little
grave yard on sunny slope in
the village Of Duquesne, far
from the childhood home, but
within sight of her one-time
playmate, always friend and
final protector.

DON'T PLANT TOO EARLY.
Haste Loses Food, Money and Seeds,
Says Department Of Agriculture
Groups Of Garden Crops.

Home vegetable gardens are being
planted prematurely in some communi.
ties in the northern part of the United
States, according to advices to the
United States department of agricul-
ture From Minnesota comes informa-
ton that people are buying seed and
planting them when there is still prob
ability of freezing. This haste in
planting. it is believed, results from
i'll considered gardening advice sent
over the country by private agencies.
The department of agriculture urges
that inexperienced gardeners make
themselves absolutely sure of the safe
planting dates. They should consult
with others more experienced, should
ascertain the probable frost free date
from the nearest station of the United
States weather bureau. or should write
to the gardening specialists of the de-
partment or their state colleges. Lati-
tude is not guide as the earliest safe
date for one locality might be prema-
ture or even late for another on the
same parallel
In connection with the danger of
early planting, the department 8 spe-
cialists point out that seed planted too
early serves no useful purpose. Seed
is scarce this year and there is use for
every ounce Of it, they say The home
gardener who plants too early loses not
only his time, trouble, and money. but
reduces the potential food stock of the
nation.
Garden crops are divided into four
groups with respect to planting the
seeds or setting out the plants.
Group ] (mayo be planted two weeks
before last killing frost). Early cab
bage plants from hotbed or seed box,
radishes, collards, onion sets. early
smooth peas, kale, early potatoes, tur-
nips, and mustard, .t. ..,
Group (may be planted about the
date of the last killing frost) Beets
parsnips, carrots, lettuce. satisfy, spin
ach, wrinkled peas, caulihower plants
celery seed. onion seed, parsley. sweet
corn, and Chinese cabbage.
Group 3 (should be planted two weeks
after last killing frosD. Snap beans
okra, and tomato plants.
Group 4 Cannot be planted unit
ground is we'll warmed up, about q
month after last hard frosts). Lima
beans, pepper plants, egg plant, cucum

Has Another Contract for Munitions.

The Vermont Farm Machine company
has been extensively engaged in the
manufacture of munitions since the be-
ginning of the war. The first contract
was with the Canadian Car and Foundry
company of Montreal to manufacture
shrapnel for the Russian government.
The second contract made about n
year ago was with the Bethlehem
Steel company and this contract Is
now being completed, During the win
ter the production has varied from J 500
to 400 shells day. Recently the out
put has not exceeded 200 shells daily.
A third contract has been made
with the United States government for
the manufacture of IS millimenter
shells, and as soon as the government
furnishes forgings according to its con
tract the company will again be run
ming at full force and probably con-
tinue so for the duration of the war. On
its munition production the company
works day and night shifts.

URGES USE OF POTATOES.
Miss Swift, Home Demonstration Agent,
Reports Progress Of Her Work
Plans Are Formulated.

Miss Lucy G.. Swift, home dcmonstra
ton agent, sent Monday to the director Of
county agents her report for the week
ending April 90, covering, as will be
seen, activities in a campaign to in
crease the use of potatoes. The report
was as follows:
Several interesting things have come
up in the home demonstration work this
week. On Tuesday l went to West Brat
tlebero, where l gave a demonstration
on potatoes. We used potatoes in bread,
cake and mullins, served potatoes in
one new way as potatoes, suggested
several other ways which might prove
helpful and made one other dish of
pearl barley. There was a splendid at
tendance of $50, among whom were
some girls from the home economies
classes of the town.
Tuesday evening l attended the reg
ular meeting of the Home Study club
in West Brattleboro and spoke to the
members a few minutes on conservation
and our part in the war. This was a
very interesting meeting, although
small and informal since the club is Il
small one.
Wednesday Is of the town directors
Oh the county met MISS ltTpOul mere Ill
the Office to consider plans for a cam
paign to be conducted during the week
of May 6, urging the greater use of our
surplus potatoes which will save wheat.
On Friday the executive committee met
in Bellows Falls with the chairman, Mrs.
Kirkland, and drew up definite plan
of action for this campaign. IN the
main this plan is to work through the
town directors, who will ask the 20
operation of the school supcrintcndcnts
and teachers for special work during
that week in exhibits, publicity, class
work and essay contests to urge the
use of potatoes, also special demonstra-
tion work by such specialists as we can
secure.
