Women to Wage
 TWO Day DriUe
 For War Stamps

| New subscribers and many addi- tional old subscriptions will be added to the districts quota of purchases ol thriit stamps and baby war bonds when today and tomorrow the women of the Warren district will reopen their booths at the banks of the dis trict and the post office. The cam paign will be conducted for two days. Women's committees have been waging an active campaign in the district for the sale of war stamps. On the pay-days proceeding this their sales have been high, and they netted large sums for the cause. IL Is an ticipated that today and tomorrow the harvest of quarters and the distribu- tiOn of stamps will be as large as on former occasions.
 While little is being said of the campaign in this Country and in the Warren district, good results are be- ing reported by those in charge of the sales. It is not definitely known if the district sales are up to their allotment, but following the arrival in Bisbee soon of Harry Tritle. of Phoenix, state salesmanager. and J. N Gaines, county sales manager, a detailed report will probably be is- sued through the press.

War Summary
CBy Review Leased wire)

(By Review Leased Wire)
 Notwithstanding the fact that the Germans for some time past have ad- vertised largely their intention to be- gin a general offensive on the allied fronts at no distant date, nothing be- yond intensified bombardments and here and there infantry attacks on various sectors have been forlhcom- ing.
 In both. these kinds of maneuvers, the Teutons have met more than their match in the guns or the men of the allied armies-the Belgians, British, French, Americans, Italians and Por- tGgese. Probably realizing that their efforts to hearten the people at home are beginning to require something more substantial than words, anoth- CT tack has been taken which either must result in an attempt to carry out seemingly vainglorious promises or result in the German populations be- lisying as the allied leaders long have believed, that with their Oppon- ents strengthened in every depart ment and prepared to counter any as- sault, the German high command is strong on holding out chimeras and weak in endeavoring to make good their boasts.

VACCINATION URGED
 BY HEALTH DOCTOR

Dr. D. Brown, city health officer, last night reported that four mild cas- es of smallpox have been taken to the isolation hospital and urged that ev- eryone within the district cooperate in an effort to stamp out the disease to prevent the possibility of it getting beyond control and thus causing an- other quarantine embargo being order ed by the state authorities.
 According to Dr. Brown numerous persons were exposed by the people now in custody before they realized they had smallpox and called in a doc tor and for that reason it is very es- sential that everyone who has not been successfully vaccinated have this done at once.
 Dr. Browns statement follows:
 Tt is urged that every one in the district who has not been successfully vaccinated recently be vaccinated at once. This measure is requested in view of the probability that the dan ger of smallpox is not entirely over and general vaccination is one of the surest means of eradicating the dis ease"
 There is no epidemic here but Dr. Brown wants to insure that the situa- ton will not reach that stage and asks the assistance of everyone in this re- spect. pointing out that if everyone becomes yaccinated there will be no chance of 0e disease spreading.

HOOVER ON VICTORY GARDENS

The importance of the Victory Garden as a factor in solving the difficulties of the present food situation is pointed out by Herbert Hoover in a letter to Timothy A. Riordan, federal food administra- tor for Arizona. He writes:
 We have been saved from posi- tive shortage throughout the coun- try largely by virtue of the ac- cumulated household stores which are the results of home endeavor.
 The food situation of the world must steadily degenerate as long as the war lasts. It is therefore of prime importance to add every item to the total production. Furthermore our over-taxed rail ways will be greatly relieved if we have a larger area of gardens planted than last year.
 Tt seems to me that the eX- perience of last season indicates that aside from a moderate plant ing of perishable vegetables for immediate use, the substantial part of such gardens, should be devoted to potatoes and beans.
 These commodities are of the utmost value from a food point oi view and have great advantage in that they can be preserved in the household without artificial treat ment.
 The matter is one to which we cannot attach too much import ance."
