 John Lowry is back from the train ing camp at Fort Benjamin Harrison, Indiana, and says that Flagstaff suits him much better than the Hoosier state. The weather there, he says, is the same thing over and over, namely, rain, and that you feel the cold there much more than here. John looks as if the soldiers life agreed with him in every way.
 George A. Reed, the proprietor of the "Echo Park Ranch", near Grand Canyon, has the distinction of being the only wholesale hog raiser in that whole section of the country. He writes that there had been several inches of snow out there previous to the last storms, but it had been the coldest steady weather he has ever experienced out there.

Passenger Service Disorganized.

The westbound passenger service on the Santa Fe has been sadly disor- ganized for the past week. The trou- ble started with the derailment of a freight at some point in Colorado, which played havoc with the schedule for about two days. No sooner had the system got strengthened out than the snow fell so deeply throughout Kansas and Colorado that the local office has been expecting trains from that section just whenever they came in and not before. Some have come in more than thirty-six hours late and in pieces, you might say, at that, for it was found necessary to break the reg ular trains up into sections to get them through.

John SnOeberger Drops Anchor Here.
 John Snoeberger, who put in about a year among the doughboys in the 15Sth regiment, disapproved of his discharge and took to salt water with the navy, returned to Flagstaff lasr week with one gold bar on his sleeve, given him for foreign service. He made one trip across the pond, but did not land, much to his disappoint- ment as we'll as the rest of the crew. Taking it all around, John says he would rather be doughboy and fuss around on foot.

THEY APPRECIATE DIR. MILLER.

Father Derlchmont, who has been at Concho for several weeks, returned Thursday. He was accompanied by Dr. k. s. Miller, who stocked up with drugs at the store of the St. Johns Drug Go. and returned Friday. Dr. Miller has been at Concho since Thanksgiving, having been sent out from Flagstaff to take control during the run of the influenza epidemic. Father Derichmont thinks Concho people were very fortunate in securing a man of Dr. Miller's ability to see them through. He was fortunate in saving nearly every case, and now the disease is under control and he will return in day or two.-St. Johns Observer.

Infertile Eggs
Keep Best

The greatest loss in preserved eggs
comes from the fact that fertile eggs
are preserved, according to c. S. An
derson of the Colorado Agricultural
college. Fertile eggs will keep equally
as well as infertile eggs, providing at
no time they have been brought to
degree of heat where the germ starts
to develop. In holding fertile eggs for
preserving, they should not be allowed
to get above so degrees Fahrenheit.
During the early spring months this is
easily done, but in warmer weather
poultrymen should take the precaution
and produce infertile eggs. Fertiliza-
ton is not an incentive to egg produc-
ton among domestic fowls, and the
number of eggs produced will be in no
way diminished.
The fertile eggs contain no germ to
be developed, withstand more heat,
are slow to decay, and can be preserv-
ed with the minimum amount of loss.

Fish a Valuable
Food
By the u. S. Department Of
Agriculture

Fish, which have always been reck-
oned as a valuable food, have been
shown by a series of digestive expert
ments conducted by the department of
agriculture to deserve q more impor-
tant place in every diet. The tests
show that fish are completely utilized
in the body.
In the experiments Boston mackerel,
butterfish, salmon and grayfish-a va
riety not generally used in this coun-
try-were made into fish loaves" and
served as a basis of a simple mixed
diet to young men of healthy appc-
tites.
Both the protein and the fat of the
fish were well utilized. Following are
the percentages of protein digested ::
Boston mackerel, 931 per cent; but
terfish, 91.9 per cent; grayfish, 92.S per
cent, and salmon, 93.2 per cent. The
percentages of fat digested were
found to be: Boston mackerel, 95.2 per
cent; butterfish, 1914 per cent; gray
fish, 94.3 per cent; salmon, 93.7 per
cent.
In addition to the fish loaf the diet
included potatoes, crackers, fruit,
sugar and tea or coffee. On the aver
age the subjects each day ate 40
grams of Boston mackerel, All grams
of butterfish, 40 grams of grayfish, or
355 grams of salmon, indicating that
in every case the fish was eaten with
relish.

Men Having Gray Eyes Have
Proved to Be Best Marksmen

Gray-eyed men, says a Fort Worth
correspondent, are the best marksmen.
This has been proved after eight
months experience at the rifle range
of Camp Bowie, and besides old army
experts will tell you the same thing.
When Capt E. r. Breese was here
giving his instruction in the use of the
new rifle he said that proficiency in
craftsmanship usually ran according
to the color of the eyes, men having
gray being the best shots, gray-blue
coming next, blue third, hazel fourth,
brown fifth, and black sixth.
Records show that soldiers whose
eyes are light brown to black cannot
shoot with accuracy at a distance
greater than 500 yards and at 800
yards miss the target altogether.
Even with different nations the
color of the eyes has determined
shooting ability. Nearly every Mex
lean has brown or black eyes and they
well, they are the poorest shots in
the world.

Added to lemon ice, it both colors and

Last Son of Revolution.

Nelson Moore. eighty-one years old,
believed to be the last real son of the
American Revolution, died recently at
his home in Omaha. Moore was born
near Vernon, Oneida county, New
York. His father, at the age of fif-
teen was fighting with the Continental
army and was with Washington at
Valley Forge. Moore came west and
was a government freighter on the
plains in 1869. In the years following
he had many experiences with Indians.
He perfectly remembered his father
and remembered many of the Incl
dents of the Revolutionary days told
by the older Moore.

MISSOULA DIVISION
SHORT OF MECHANICS
Official Here Says Extreme
West Needs Experts.

Very few skilled workmen and ex-
pert mechanics are available for use
on the eastern railroads, according to
a statement issued yesterday by the
railroad officials in this city. This
statement follows the announcement
or the railroad administration to move
skilled workers from western rail-
roads to eastern lines, for a few weeks
to relieve the serious transportation
and railroad conditions to the east.
1t Is expected that the extreme west
viii be affected by these steps, as
western lines are short OF mechanics,
and to take what few workers there
are would result in the paralysis of
transportation in this section OF the
country.
Mechanics and railroad workers are
much in demand and great difficulty
Is experienced by the roads in getting
workers to handle the repair work on
western divisions. Munition plants
and big manufacturing concerns have
taken many from the railroads, with
the result that the number OF work
ers on hand are not adequate to han
die the railroad situation.
