Tarpurll l4ln!
mplrnntp l4la!
By w. H. Bryenton

Farewell Ninenteen Eighteen!
Tis plainly seen,
You're going now,
The chill of death is on your brow,
The record of the past
On history's page is cast.
You came with hope and cheer
To some; great fear
Of things unseen
Possessed the heart of humble mien,
Yet you were very kind
And gave sweet peace of mind.
Many, with anxious eyes
Sought some great prize
With eager zest;
But like the foam on oceans crest
Seen for little while,
This did their heart beguile.
Some who with glow of health
Earth's greatest wealth
Began the race,
Met on the way the grim Pale-Face;
By death they are laid low
Where wintry winds do blow.
Sorrow has had it's sway,
And death it's way,
Grim war it's rage;
The stain of blood is on times page.
Yet God is very good,
He gives hope, rest and food.
Great year of all the years
Of hope and tears
That bade war cease,
And gave to men new hope and peace,
Honor and fame for thee
Friend of humanity!
Before we bid adieu,
We say to you:
Much we have lost,
And dangerous seas we have crossed,
Laid loved ones under sod,
But kept our faith in God.
Farewell, Old Year, farewell!
They ring the knell
And spread the pail.
The midnight bells to us do call.
The Old Year now is Ger,
The New Years at the door.

'T'm- -thru-enza" Germ Makes Debut

(Lake Division News.)
With the cessation Of hostilities the
Red Cross is called upon to combat a
new epidemic, originating this time
within it's own ranks. The affiiction
is known as the "I'm-thru-enza."
The initial symptom is a sense of
lassitude-a feeling of "What's the
use? It's all over Why should I
work ?" Steps are being taken to
isolate the germ-also those who are

measures. But the existing law gov erning the dove and whitewing is an initiated measure and, under, the con- stitution, the legislature is powerless to repeal or amend it. The people alone have that power and the legal machinery provided for obtaining ac- tion by the people in the matter could not be put in motion and bring the desired result before about the end of the year, which would be too late to affect the emergency which now confronts us.
 Therefore, notice is hereby given that anybody possessing a license, 3 gun and ammunition, and the in clination to use same upon doves and whitewings may do so without re- striction as to bag limit, until the grain crops are harvested.
 However there must be no shoot ing on the public highways nor or the premises of others without per mission of the owner.
 Patriotic men and women every where, I am sure, will wholeheartedly approve of the stand I am taking 1T this matter.

WAR LIN DOVES SAME AS HUNS
 |S DECLARED

Game Warden c. M. Willard cut the Gordian knot presented in the unprecedented irruption of doves and Whitewings in the valley and has suspended, if not the law, the en- forcement of the law for their pro- lection during the periods covered by the closed season! This suspension will remain in force during the war. In a statement issued by him yes terday he said:
 In view of the fact that the people of Arizona, along with the balance of the United States, are now on rations as to wheat bread and other wheat products for the next 90 days, as war measure, and knowing full well that bread is the first requisite of war as well as of peace and that it may easily prove to be the de- termining factor in the world con- flict still raging, and in view of the further fact that the wheat producing areas of the state are now infested with doves and whitewings in such countless millions as to constitute a serious menace to the maturing crops of bread stuffs, I have decided, after careful investigation and considera- tion of the situation, in all it's phases, iCSdif CNOliOliiN, tNN-, tieit OCNtbuot Ol our own pressing need and that of our fighting allies and friendly neu- trals for the production and conser- vation of every possible pound of breadstuffs, l, as state game warden, can best serve the people of Arizona, the people of the United States, and in fact all peoples of all nations who wish to see democracy emerge tri- umphant from the long drawn world war, by refr/ng to enforce the ex- isting law for the protection of the dove and whitewing while the war continues.
 Whenever existing laws have been found to be operating to the ad- vantage of the Hun, or where laws were lacking for the prosecution of the war congress and the various state legislatures have hastcned tc remedy the situation. And now our own state legislature is about to con vene for the purpose of enacting war

NEW YORK, May 15.-Greater breadth attended today's stock deal ings, although the volume of opera tons was slightly under recent large totals. Rails relinquished much of yesterdays prominence and strength after the first hour when war shares again dominated the market.
 United States Steel had several formidable rivals in respect to ac- tlvity and was far outdistanced in strength by Baldwin Locomotive. which made an extreme gain of 91a to 97, while Midvale Steel, at an au- vance of 3&, rose to 54% Midvale's $ rise was accompanied by reports that the government proposes to erect a plant for it's own use.
 Other notably strong and active industrials included Colorado Fuel and Gulf States Steel, these gaining , to points.
 Twice ,during the session, United States, Steel was within 1s of the years maximum at 1117s after per sistent offerings that carried it down two points. The stock closed at 111A, a net gain of IFS.

TELEGRAM TOOK Il
 YEARS IN TRANSIT
(London Chronicle)

One day last week this newspaper office received the following letter: T beg to acknowledge your telegram dis patched to me January P, 1906, and re- ceived on Tuesday, January ', 1917, thus taking eleven years to come fifty yards, that being the distance between the local postoffice and my shop
 Of course there is an explanation of the delay. The telegram was handed in at Fleet street, postoffice on Jan uary 22, 1906. at 2:07 D. m., and was received at an Essex postoffice at 2:36 D. m the same day. At that period telegrams were placed in chute lead ing from the receiving room to the counter for delivery, and it appears that on it's way the naughty telegram slipped in between the woodwork and hid there for eleven years.
 Last week postoffice engineer mak- ing some repairs rescued the wire from it's ''dugout' It was forthwith deliv- cred by the postmaster in person with courteous apologies for the delay and any inconvenience incurred.

CASTOR BEAN FACTS ] SENT BY GOVERNMENT
PAGE SEVEN

So many inquiries have been received at the Phoenix Chamber of Commercs regarding the. growing of castor beans. and contracts with the government that inquiry was made of the United States department of agriculture and the following information received, from Prof. w. W. Stockberger, physiol- ogist in charge of drug and poisonous plant Investigations.
 The department of agriculture is not making contracts for growing castor beans, or supplying the seed for plant | ing. Contracts of this kind have been made by the chief signal officer of tha army to insure the planting of an eX- | tensive acreage in the south so that a supply of castor oil for the govern ment's airplane program. might be as- | sured.
 | It was regarded as impracticable to make any of these contracts for less than 100 acres, since many small agree ments would have resulted in too great a requirement in the way of govern | ment supervision. The entire acreage has therefore been allotted on this 1 basis to cooperative organizations and large contractors, who are authorized to sub- contract with small growers and are held responsible for supervision, distribution of the seed, assembling i and delivery of the product, etc.
 The contracts guarantee a price of $3.50 per 46-pound bushel of castor beans and in permitting sub-contracts it is stipulated that the actual grower shall receive not less than s per bush el This allows a range of 50 cents per bushel for adjustment between the contractor and the small grower, ac- cording to the extent of the assistance given, but for his protection it is stipu- lated that the farmer shall receive not less than $S per bushel.
 Small planters have been encouraged to contract with the nearest govern ment contractor, whose name will be furnished upon application to the chief signal officer, equipment division, castor oil section, 119 D. street, N. E.,
 Washington, D. C. If it is desired to grow castor beans for the open market, for which it is believed there will be a demand seed for planting may be ob- tained at a reasonable price from the Baker Castor Oil company, 120 Broad way, New York city, from whom the government has purchased it's seed re- quirement. This company has expressed its willingness to furnish seed to grow
 CTS as long as the supply on hand will permit.
 The principal castor oil manufactur-
 CTS in this country are located at Jer- sey City, N. J.; Buffalo, N. Y.: Toledo,
 Ohio, and Grand Rapids, Mich. Inas-
 much as these manufacturers have been obtaining their supplies by. inn
 port, there are not at present estab-
 lished markets in the south. The castor
 beans grown under government con- tracts are to be assembled at the near est railway points, and it seems prob
 able that local markets will also devel-
 op in those sections where this crop is now being planted on a commercial scale.
