Is More C1oce,s and Dairy -
- Cattle Needed On
= Our Farms ~
Europe's. Need Promises to lncreacc
the Prosperity Of
America.
BY p. G. HOLDEN.
"HE worlds food problem.

"HE worlds food problem. az
pointed out by Mr.. Hoover, In
clndes the need Of an increase
OF three million tons in the produc-
ton OF protein feeds, and ON in
creased production Of one million
pounds of dairy products.
II every American farmer win give
greater attention to the growing Of
protein feeds-alfalfa. sweet clover,
cowpeas. soy beans. peanuts. and
other members Of the clover family
our production of protein feed and
dairy products will be greatly in
creased. AS result, also, our produc-
ton Of almost every other crop pro-
duced on the farm will be greater.
The growing Of clovers means
crop rotation and diversified farm
ing. 1t means more live stock and
more dairy products. It means more
fertile soil, greater prosperity,
steady income the entire year.
Alfalfa and sweet clover can be
grown on my farm. Patience and
determination alone are necessary
for success. If we raise hay we are
bound to raise live stock. This means
more dairy cattle and more dairy
products. Whatever the market
price Of alfalfa may be, 1t is worth
more to us when sold in the form Of
milk or butter.
Because alfalfa and all feeds are
high, we cannot afford to feed the
scrub COW that does not produce
enough milk to pay for her keep.
The dairy herds of France, Bel
GUM and other European countries
have been enormously reduced. For
years to come there will be mora
than a normal demand for dairy
products. The millions of children
in the war-stricken countries, as well
as cur children at home, need milk.
1t is vital to their health and de-
velopment. We all need butter.
Dairy products furnish US with
protein necessary for the building
Of bone and tissue. The worlds des-
tiny must be carved by vigorous men
and women. If we IRE to have strong
men and women, we must have we'll
developed boys and girls.
Do not underweigh the effect which
the clover in your pasture may have
upon the future development Of civil
lization. America alone possesses
large fields. unspoiled by the FIRE Of
chemicals and the scars Of shells.
And upon these fields must be grown
not only the meats and the grains,
but the protein demanded for that
balanced ration which all men and
animals need.
If the cry Of hungry Europe re-
suits in more clover pastures and
more live stock in America. better
farms, greater crops, happier homes
will be ours.

KEEP YOUNG

People with bad backs and weak
kidneys are apt to feel old at sixty
Many old folks say Doan's Kidney
Pills help them keep young Here's
Richmond case:
Mrs. Jane Cooper. 916 North Twelfth
street, gave the following statement
in September, 1915: II have used
Doan's Kidney Pills off and on for
years and have never found another
medicine that has done me SO much
good. My back has always given me
the most trouble; it would ache and
be stiff and sore. My kidneys acted
irregularly and l had dizzy spells and
headaches. Every time I have had
those spells have used Doan's Kidney
Pills, procured at Quigley's Drug
Store, and they have never failed to
relieve me- There is nothing better
for the kidneys"
On November %, 1917 Mrs. Cooper
said: Occasional use of Doan's Kid
ney Pills keeps my kidneys in good
shape. l know there is nothing bet
ter for kidney complaint"

six repair ships which achieved re-
markable results in repairing vessels

The report makes the first official
announcement regarding development
Of the submarine detection devices
and shows that American equipment
for this purpose has ben placed aboard
British and French naval craft. De-
tails are not disclosed, however, the
report in this connection combining
Itself to the following paragraph:
Previous to July l, 1917, there were
two devices for submarine detection in
service. One was the Fessenden os-
cilh,tor, primarily intended for sending
and receiving underwater signals; the
other was device developed by the
[;ena raj Electric Company. Since then
eight other devices for submarine de-
!ectio have been developed and made
h qua ltity, not only for our own navy,
tut fol- the British admiralty and the
French ministry of marine. Modified
orms o. these devices have also been
designed for use in protection of the
ltlantic coast of the United States"

EMANCIPATION CELEBRATED
 BY NEGROES OF CLIFTON
The following is the statement of

Wednesday last was June 19. This date is not of much significance in Arizona, but in Texas, from whence most of the colored population emi- grated, the date is one to "conjure" with.
 June 18th is the day the colored population celebrates their emanci- patton from slavery. On that date the proclamation of President Lin coin was received in the State of Texas, and upon the publication of the presidents proclamation every slave in that state was granted his freedom. Wherever the document was received right there the slave immediately ceased labor and became free American citizen"
 As was their custom before leay- ing the Lone Star state the colored citizens of Clifton observed the day with a picnic and pleasant outing.
 President Lincoln issued his pro- clamation January l., 1863, but the official notice reached the several states on different dates. For this reason the negroes have separate dates in which to celebrate their na- tai day.
 The local celebration only partook of an outing at Potter's park, where a pleasant time was passed. A splendid dinner had been prepared, and it was intended that the day would close with patriotic program, but it seems that the usual Texas weather prevailed on June 19, as a rain prevented any other manifesto tion of the patriotic spirit except pleasant outing.
 Some in Texas are advocating the changing of this date to the date Of issuance of the proclamation, but such a plan is destined to die aborn- ing, as June 18th is too firmly es- tablished in Texas to be seriously considered. Who ever heard of water melons and other delicious fruits so dear to the negroes appe- tite, ripening in January? Might as well talk about changing the Fourth of July celebration. Texas negroes will have none of it. June Teenth" is their natal day, and all hell can't change it.

FREIGHT TRAIN DITCHED
 AT GUTHRIE THURSDAY

A freight train of the Arizona and arrival of the evening passenger train, went into the ditch at Guthrie last Thursday evening, soon after the passenger train had passed.
 The cause of the accident is said to have resulted from one of the oil tank cars in the train jumping the track and derailing nine cars. Those that were most badly damaged were three tank cars, one car loaded with corn, and one with coke. One tank of Gil was lost, as the train went in to the ditch. Four of the derailed cars were badly wrecked, but none SO badly that they cannot be put in commission again.
 The wreck tore up the track for a considerable distance, and was not in condition for the passenger to pass over on schedule time yesterday morning. The passenger did not leave this station until S:3O, and was delayed at the scene for some time, leaving there two hours late. A shoe fly track had to be constructed around the wreck before the passen- ger could proceed.
 The wlecking crew was dispatched to the scene right after the wreck, and work of picking it up proceeded most of the night.
 The merchandise in the wreck ed cars was consigned to the A. c. con.- pany at this place.

Y. M. c. A. NOTES.

Parents of boys in the Scout age should by all means have them join the Boy Scouts. We should have fifty instead of twelve or fifteen at the Scout meetings. If parents could realize what wonderful work these boys are doing they would certainly persuade their boys to become first class Scouts. Messrs Payne, Neil and Coats are giving some kind of good wholesome instructions for the boys most every evening.
 The old fans are gradually dropping into the indoor base ball. Just as soon as there are enough Americans to make two teams the Americans and Mexicans will be separated.
 The indor ball or the Gym Class is going every night but Sunday. Fifty to sixty books are being read each week, and about fifty baths are be- ing recorded. The cafeteria is accom- modating nearly forty men each day.

PATRIOTIC SENTIMENTS
 OF THE AMERICAN SPIRIT

Thomas Greenade, who is in train ing at Camp Fremont, writes to MT. Ben Crawford, under recent date from which the following extract is taken:
 Tt seems that the Huns are getting the worst of it. If the Allies can hold them back now what will hap pen when Uncle Sam gets his full fighting force there?
 q would like for you to be here and see some of the parades. A man cannot realize the thrill that comes to one when marching under the Stars and Stripes.
