NEW INDUSTRY DEVELOPING
 IN PHOENIX

A manufacturing enterprise in which eight trained men are now employed and which is expanding rapidly. has grown up in Phoenix since the first of the year. It is that of T. B. Atkins, of 425 South Fourth avenue for the making of silos or steel forms for silos under a patent taken out by MT. Atkins This enterprise was begun in Texas not a great while ago from a rather accidental beginning. Mir. Atkins wanted a concrete silo and devised the steel form for it. Before he had 1t finished a neighbor wanted it, and having more money than Mir Atkins, obtained it. It was the first con- crete silo in Texas west of San Antonio. MT. Atkins began other silos for himself, but before they were finished he yielded to neigh bors so that he made many silos before he got one for himself. AL together he constructed 200 in that part of Texas.
 The advantage of the Atkins silo system over any other for the con- struction of concrete silos is the rapidity of construction and when one is done it is done forever. They are built of all sizes up to 800 ton capacity, sixty feet in height. On this steel form a silo can be built in week. It is the only concrete silo having cast iron doors.
 When MT. Atkins first visited the Salt River valley he was astonished to find so few silos in a region where so many were needed. He estimated that $2,000,000 worth of ensilage was lost in this valley annually. That is, there were 30.000 acres of feterita which might be saved, to say nothing of the other crops which may be cut green for ensilage and room made for other crops.
 The high price of alfalfa, MT. Atkins said, was discouraging to the dairy industry, and if the prices continued as they were likely to, many dairies would be forced out, though this is one of the finest dairy countries he has ever seen. The silo, he said would not only preserve the industry, but would increase it; there would be better feed for dairy cows and more of it and cheaper feed. Johnson grass, said MT. Atkins mixed with other crops or even alone, makes excellent ensilage. He expects to dot the valley with concrete silos for their usefulness is now being bet ter and more widely understood Kansas alone erected 1000 of them last year.

GAMBLING ELEMENT NEED NOT ENTER
 TIRE PURCHASE

Why should the motorist have his buying pervaded with the gambling element any more than any other type of buyer? Certain well-known brands of shoes for instance are known to give definite service. Not one pair out of a hundred possibly, falls short of expectations. We buy certain types of cars with the knowl- edge that a given mileage may be expected of them.
 Why potshot luck with tires? If your are fortunate you may get a tire that runs 5000 miles. The next may close it's career with a paltry thousand to its credit.
 This was the vein in which MT. Frank c. Millhoff, General Sales Man ager, was discussing the tire situa- tion of today. He justified the mot orist in expecting tires of the same kind, subject to like conditions, to render approximately the same mile age. He said that just such tires as these was Miller announcing in it's big, powerful, national campaign.
 MT. Millhoff continued tires that are built uniformly, and as they are built in the Miller factory, do give uniform mileage-and the maximum Exceptions may be found in any line They're the luck tires. They may give between five and ten thou sand miles. But the manufacturer s problem has been to make every tire as good as his best.
 Miller, by confining the building ot it's tires to carefully recruited men men whose ability has been proven by records scientifically kept, has at least solved the problem of making uniform tires. Now every Miller tire is made 1 by master builders whose average personal efficiency is 96 per cent. Not more than one tire in hundred evel calls for adjustment.
 Such tires, the Miller Man con- cluded,' are indeed down to the in stant tires. They are tiredom's fin. est example of conservation

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-A flood reported in the upper Rhine valley has inundated the city of Cologne, destroy ing quantities of provisions, dispatches received here today said. In some To- calities the rise of the river was so rapid that the people had to be aroused by the tolling of bells. Troops were sent to aid the inhabitants
 The tributaries of the Rhine also are overflowing, interrupting railroad traf- flee while many communities in the valley of the Moselle are completely cut off

K|SSEL TRYING FUR PTAb|L|TY OF
 MOTOR VEHICLE

Just as the manufacturers of other labor and time saving machines are putting forth greater efforts toward making them still more efficient" says H. w. Nerney of the KisselKar, "so the designers and makers of motor trucks are adding those features which make their trucks not only more de- pendable. but more adaptable and of greater utility.
 Tn designing the new KisseI truck models, wherever possible we added more loading space without adding materially to the weight of the chassis or decreasing the pulling power of the engine.''

There is an ordinance in this
city directed at the roaming at
large of live stock in the city
limits, and making it a misde-
meanor subjecting the owners to
a fine, and it is about time the
council were making an effort to
see the ordinance is enforced.
When cattle and horses are per-
mitted to run. about the city
tearing down fences and destroy
ing trees it is time for some
drastic action, and if the present
ordinance is not sufficient a new
one should be passed. Those of
our citizens who take a pride in
keeping up their homes and
lawns are entitled to some pro-
lection, and people who permit
their stock to run at large should
be prosecuted.

1t is rumored that Judge Ellis,

1t is rumored that Judge Ellis,
of Mohave county, will resign
his position on February 1st, and
will remove to Prescott to form
a law partnership with Leroy
Anderson. This news will be re-
ceived with regret by many citi-
zens in Navajo county, and espe-
cially the bar, as Judge Ellis has
presided in the superior court
here on numerous occasions, and
won the confidence and respect
of all.

Let us suggest to the demo-
cratic newspapers of the state
that the less they say about the
supreme court decision in the
Hunt Campbell case the better it
will be for the democratic party
and the non-partisan democratic
supreme court. 1t was a fore
gone conclusion Immediately the
case was appealed to the higher
court that the decision would be
in favor of the appellant. And
two months before the decision
was pronounced it was an open
secret what the decision would
be. The Winslow Mail accepts
the decision as the law, but that
is not admitting by any means
that the decision was free from
political bias, and the democratic
papers of the state are showing
poor taste in continually harping
on the victory won in the courts.

We sometimes wonder if the
steel trust, the coal trust, and
all the other trusts that are fat
tenning on war contracts are not
more interested in having the
war continue than in speeding
up production to hasten the day
of peace. The government now
says shipping is being held up at
seaboards for want of coal for
the ships, and coal mines run
ming on short shift all over the
country. There is no valid ex-
cuse for a shortage of coal ex-
cept the greed of the mine oper-
ators who are leagued together
to limit production to maintain
war prices for their output. The
government should confscate the
mining properties and operate
them for the benefit of the ma
tion and the people.

1t is now rumored the govern
ment will demand from shoe
manufacturers that the high
heels of miIady's shoes must
come down as a war measure to
save leather. 1t will not save
much leather, as the high heels
are built of wood with a leather
finish, but reducing the heels
will preserve the health of the
women which is the most impor-
tant thing. The high heel is an
abomination that should have
been abolished long ago. 1t con-
tributes neither grace, beauty
nor health to the Wearer, and
changes the whole plan of nature
that the weight of the body
should be borne on the heels,
and throws the weight forward
on the ball of the foot.

The Winslow Mail is not often
in harmony with Dunbar's Week
ly, but on the question of re-
moving the barnacles from the
state university, we are in per-
feet accord. Gov. Hunt should
appoint a new board of regents
throughout, and select such men
as will hand Herr Won Klein
Smid his resignation as president
of the university. There is no
use trying to conceal the fact
that a goodly portion of the
money to maintain the university
comes from the copper COM
panies in donations to assist in
the salaries paid, but it is time
the state of Arizona was finding
out whether it can afford to sup
port a university without such
assistance, and if it cannot, then
the school should be closed until
the state is financially able to
handle such an institution with
credit. The Winslow Mail has
not forgotten the dirty work of
the regents and the president in
dismissing Prof. Colodny. because
his wife led a fight that put the
red light district out of business
in Tucson, and left some empty
houses on the hands of friends
of the regents from which a
handsome income had been de-
rived. The regents of the uni
versity and Kleinsmidt lost the
respect of all decent people the
day Prof. Colodny was dismissed,
and at that time the regents and
Won Smidt should have been fired
instanter. We hope Gov. Hunt
will follow the suggestion of
Dunbar and clean out the whole
gang at Tucson and get some
new decent blood at the head of
the school.

CONGRESSMAN Carl HAYDEN.

Congressman Carl Hayden, by
his votes in Congress, is evil
dently trying to represent his
Arizona constituents. He has
voted regularly in favor of every
bill looking for national prohibi-
ton, has always voted stead
fastly for every woman's suffrage
bill, and has been religiously
voting for every war measure
proposed by the administration.
And he does this without making
speeches to the galleries.

Perhaps as soon as the Kaiser

Perhaps as soon as the Kaiser
can kill off a large majority of
the German socialists on the bat
tie front, he will be willing to
accept terms of peace. The fast
growing socialistic sentiment in
Germany was threatening his
crown, and even the ruthless
rule of Prussian militarists could
not execute the socialists in time
of peace without fear of an in
ternal revolution. but by engag-
ing in war the socialists could be
drafted to the battle front to be
shot by the enemy, under the
spur of patriotic devotion to the
Fatherland.

Last week the lower house of
Congress passed the resolution
providing for an amendment to
the constitution granting uni
versal suffrage to women. 1t is
almost an assured fact that the
resolution will pass the senate,
and then it will be up to the
several states to ratify the
amendment.
The Winslow mail., 1918-01-18

If the Tucson university is a
state university the regents
should be appointed from various
sections of the state instead of
all being residents of Tucson and
Phoenix. Perhaps if this was
done some of the rottenness of
that institution would disappear,
for the reason that local infu-
ences would not govern the board
in all their actions, and the uni
versity would be managed for
the benefit of the state.

President Wilson on Peace.

The pronouncement last week
by President Wilson of general
peace terms, or rather state
ment of the purposes this coun-
try demands as prerequisite to
a cessation of hostilities against
the Central Powers, is clear-cut
and should remove all doubt from
the minds of our enemies of the
policy the United States will pur-
sue. 1t was not a manifestation
of weakness, nor the begging of
the question for peace prompted
by a spirit of coWardice or fear
of the clash of arms; it was a
brave statement of the ruler of
brave nation who want peace,
not only for themselves but for
all the nations of the world. 1t
is possible the arrogant Prussian
militarist will use the Presidents
peace statement as manifesta-
tion of anxiety on the part of this
country to escape the rigors of
war, and thereby encourage the
German people to continue the
sanguinary struggle for a COM
plete victory for their arms, the
Kaiser and Gott. If the Presi-
dents statement is not accepted
in it's true spirit by the people of
the Central Powers, and they on
ly can see in it a desire to get
out of the strife, they will awake
when it is too late that the Unit
ed States never shirks it's respon-
sibility to enforce it's just de-
mands for it's national rights and
privileges.
Up to this hour the United
States has done but little more
than furnish money, munitions
and provisions to the allies, but
there are a million men in train
ing for soldiers, and other mil
lions will follow until we have
an army of twenty million men
at the front battling for a de-
mocracy of the world. We are a
cosmopolitan people, and it is to
be expected there will be a few
traitors to the best government
Gods sun ever shown upon, and
more pro-German sympathizers,
or near traitors, but with these
few exceptions this nation of
one hundred and twenty million
people are standing shoulder to
shoulder with President Wilson
in his policy, and will freely vol
enteer to the last man and their
last dollar to bring success.

War profiteers are not inter
ested in an early peace. Their
sons are not on the battle front.
The mourning in the homes of
the poor laboring man who has
given his all for his country has
not even a passing interest to
the profteer. The clinking of
the gold falling in his till is the
sweet music in his ear, drown
ing out the anguish of the moth
er bereft of a son. And still
there are thousands of telephone
poles not being put to use.

ASK IDAHO TO RAISE
MORE THAN QUOTA
APPEAL MADE FOR COMBINED
WAR FUND TO HELP OUR
VICTORIOUS SOLDIERS

BOISE, Nov. 11.-(Special to The
Star Mirror. AT nine this morning
throughout Idaho the big drive for
war funds through the United War
Work campaign started. 1t is a race
among the counties to be first across
Headquarters is confident that Idaho
will go fifty per cent over the top and
be one of the "honor states" to first
reach her quota. Colonel Roosevelt
issued statement at New York urg-
ing a national rally to this great
drive. He says: eff the nation failed
in it's duty at this time and gave our
soldiers belief that we have forgotten
them since we have ceased risking our
lives in war, it would be dreadful
act of ingratitude. We stay at homes
owe everything to those men at the
front and unless we subscribe and
oversubscribe the amount demanded
by the allied war work council we
will have come shamefully short in
our duty" New York city has raised
her quota from thirty-five million to
fifty-two and half million.
Cardinal Gibbons, New York, says:
"To slack in our efforts now, to lessen
our generosity would be great un-
gratitude to these men who have en-
dured such hardships and dangers for
our sake, and are bringing to a happy
end the greatest war in history. They
have earned the best and the most we
can give them. An American who will
not give all he can and help all he
can is unworthy of the noble army
and navy and the holy cause for which
they fought. God has blessed us won
derfully in bringing a sudden end to
this horrible war and every one must
show his gratitude by helping the
