What Would You Do To Stop
 Such Things?

President Wilson, while review ing the Red Cross parade in New York, was greeted by a Canadian soldier, invalided home from the front, who had been taken into the Canadian Army despite the fact that he was 54 years old when the authorities learned that his son was one of those that Ger man soldiers crucifed on a barn door. What would you do to stop such fendish things? Do you think it much of a sacrifice to pledge yourself to save and buy War Savings Stamps?

Thrive by Thrift.

The St. Johns Stake Academy is establishing clubs throughout Apache coanty for the purpose of getting a more practical education started among the young and old. This is one of the best moves we have yet heard of and shows, to us, that educational ideas are now advancing along the right lines. In our opinion it will not be long before the U. s. govern ment will take up this new meth ed and have it established through out the nation.

Fourth of July.

Our citizens of foreign eXtrac- tion have petitioned the President for an opportunity to manifest on the Fourth of July their loyalty to the United States and the cause for which it is fighting In re- sponse to this petition the Presi- dent asks all citizens of America to join in with them in commem- orating this anniversary not only of national freedom but of uni versal freedom.
 The Council of National De- fense urges each County Council of Defense to provide for a cele- bration of the Fourth of July in each of its communities, and the following program is suggested: 1. America" sung by the whole audience. and led by a we'll trained community chorus. 2. A dramatic pledging of alleg- lance to the flag by local boys and girl scouts.
 8. The reading of the Declaration of Independence.
 4. Patriotic selections by the local band. This should include the national airs of our allies. 5. A short speech-not longer than 15 minutes bringing out the aims of the United States and all free nations in the war of 1917. (The services of the State Speakers Bureau and the organization of Four Minute Men may be of assistance in procuring this speaker.)
 6. Community singing of patriot lc anthems led by a community chorus. One or more of the new war songs would also be appropriate.
 2. Reading of a message from President Wilson to the peopIo of the United States. If aspec- ial Fourth of July message is sent out by President Wilson this, of course, should be read. 8. A short play, tableau, or page ant depicting the unity of all people in the cause of freedom for which the United States is fighting.

The Doctor Away From Home
 When Most Needed.

People are often very much dis appointed to find that their family physician IS away from home when they most need his services. Diseases like pain in the stomach and bowels, collie and diarrhoea require prompt treatment, and have in many instances proven fatal before medicine could be procured or a physician summon ed. The right way is to keep a bottle of Chamberlain's Collie and Diarrhoea Remedy. No physician can prescribe a better medicine for the diseases. By having it in the house you escape much pain and suffering and all risk. Buy it now; it may save life. Adv.

A Strange Disease.

Carsbald, N. MA strange disease is attacking cattle on the plains in the Lovington, N. M. country, according to informa- tion from LoYington. The disease appears first in the nature of a swelling on the cattle, not being confined to any particular part of the body. The swelling does not appear to interfere with the ap- petites of the cattle, but it is fol- lowed by sudden death.
 A number of cattle are said to have died from the disease which is an entirely new one to cattle men, and without as yet a known remedy.

What Did You Do In The War?

A Chicago paper has asked of every American, What are YOU doing to help win the war? Are you going ahead as usual, intent on your own personal interests, quieting your conscience by say ing. "The government hasn't called me?' But your country called you the day war was de clared. The defense of your country is identical with the de- fense of your home. The attack of the German army is identical with the attack of thugs against your home, your wife, your daughter. Are you going to let your neighbors defend your home without any assistance from you? Are you that kind of a selfish coward wEo lets some one else fight his battles for him? When the was is over, will you change the subject when some one asks, What war work did you do?' Will you then have your self respect or will you live ashamed of yourself and despised by your fellow men? Will you be honorably accepted by or dis honorably discharged from So- ciety? If you can not serve in the army or navy, you can help in some other department. There is plenty of work for everyone including YOU.

What Do You Say?

We are often confronted with the proposition or question about as follows:
 In your opinion which person do you think is the most loyal to his country and government, the pro-german, who has not sworn allegiance to any other govern ment, or an American who is en- gagged in the mercantile business, and is always crying loyalty to the government, but who has nu- merous articles for sale which he bought long before the war, but upon which he has placed war prices: thus making an enormous profit off of the poor hard work ing people. The merchant en- riches himself using as an excuse for high prices, the war. "
 In the heart of every true American is bred the spirit of loyalty and freedom. But often and in nearly all cases the labor ing class-even in times of peace have about all they can do to make things go. And now dur ing this troublesome period they are expected to purchase W.S.S., Liberty Bonds, etc.-which is as it should be-but it does seem that there should be something done to stop this profteering un- der or behing a banner of false patriotism.

THE STORK'S DILEMMA.

The stork laid down his burden And stretched his weary neck; Said he, 'I'm in a quandary, Pm worried green by heck; I've filled the peoples order, One blue eyed boy, size eight, But it seems I've come too late. '" His daddy's gone Somewhere in
 France, To wallop Kaiser Bill; His mammals at the Red Cross, Rolling bandages with a will. His auntie's knitting sweaters, And grand mas toeing socks; So it seems to me, young feller. That we've come to the wrong box "The married men of draft age Have all gone off to war; Their wives can't care for those
 they now have, So they don't want any more. The older men have got to work, To keep the food crop growing, And the old wives work from
 morn till night To keep the home fires glowing. T could leave you with some sin
 gle girl
 Who has no occupation, But the people still find time to
 talk
 And she'd lose her reputation. There's only one thing left to do With you that can see, It's take you back to Him who
 said
 Let little children come unto me. There is no place for babies here While this old world s at1ame, With wars destructive fireworks Let's go back from whence we
 came.
 I'll take you back up wonder And leave you there with God, Til Wilson wins this conflict, And the Kaiser is under the sod.
 I will call a special meeting Of all the storks 1 know; We'll talk this business over And we'll go on strike, by Joe; We'll deliver not one baby, To matron, maid or wife. Til we get agood, safe guarantee It shall have a decent life. "

Napoleon couldn't whip a com bined Europe and the kaiser will not be able to defeat a combined world. It took Europe twenty years to conquer Napoleon, but it will not take the world that long to put the kaiser in chains.
 The road to the defeat of Ma poleon was a long and bloody one for Europe but the Corsi- cans dream of world power end ed suddenly with the smash at Waterloo. The dream of the world power today is not the dream of real Germany. but the air castles of a bloody and mur- derous bunch of four hundred thousand junkers under the lead of the kaiser. They may DOT long the struggle, but they can never win the contest.

Germany y's War on the Wounded

German airplanes recently bombed a large American hospi- tai. Towering at low attitudes, every effort was made to hit the main building, which was con- spicuously marked with the Red Cross emblem. Doctors and nurses removed our wounded boys to trenches previously dug for such emergencies. National War Savings Day gives an oppor- tunity to register in a practical way your VOW that such things must end.

A Proclamation

To the People of the State ot
 Arizona:
 The people of this State will have the opportunity during the period from June 10th to June 18th and eliminating on June 28, 1918, of showing their loyalty and consecration to the great enter prise this na tion is engaged upon by pledging themselves to save and economize and invest in War Savings Stamps.
 The material needs necessary to successfully prosecute the war can be met only if the people of this nation deny themselves some of their customary expenditures. It is not enough to furnish thous- ands of young men as this state is doing. Those men must be cloth ed, fed and equipped. Surely when they are so willing to give their lives we should not hesitate to lend our savings.
 The people of this State during the year 1918 are expected to save and invest in War Savings Stamps to the maturity value of $5, 260, Similar allotments have been made to other states and the President of the United States has called on the people of the various states on June 18th to in- dicate their willingness to prac- tice the patriotic self-denial re- qulred of all of us, by pledging themselves to purchase w Tar Savings Stamps during the re- mainder of this year. This State has always responded fully to calls made upon it and 1 feel sure the present will be no exception.
 In order that this State and it's people may not fall behind other states in responding to this call, I hereby proclaim Friday. June 18th, as War Savings Day for the State of Arizona, upon which day all persons shall give their pledges for War Savings Stamps at such times and places and in such man. ner as may be appointed by MT. H. R. Tritle, War Savings Direc- tor for this State. acting under the authority of the Secretary of the Treasury, and pursuant to the proclamation of the President of the United States; and further respectfully urge all persons to purchase War Savings Stamps from June 10 to June 28 as liber- ally as possible so that Arizona will take it's proper place among the States in amount of money actually subscribed.
 In Witness Whereof, 1 have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of Arizona to be affixed

whether the open drain or the tile

extremely slight or where the outlet is
submerged for portion of the wear
IL Will not be advisable to use tile
drains. The open ditch gives the best
service. Where the tile drains are
used the outlet should be free and the
fall should be at least two or three
inches per hundred feet. A larger
fall is better.

Money expended for the drainage of
cultivated land should be considered
as permanent improvement and anv
increase in crop yields that results
from this improvement should be con-
.sidered' as aadividend~ paid on this in,
veStment.
Investment made in tile dra:.,s is
not a temporary thing, but is 2 per-
manent improvement that will m
crease in efficiency from year to
year. Whatever increase is due to this
method of improvement should be
counted as dividend on the cost of
the investment and not on the total
cost of the land. 1t requires no more
labor, seed or fertilizer to crop a well
drained acre of land than it does a
poorly drained acre, and, therefore,
the increase in crop yield die to the
drainage should be counted ss returns
on the cost Of installing the drains.
Where tiles are considered FIR drain.
ing land, common question arises
as to how many will be required to
drain an acre Of land. This will de-
pend upon the conditions noted above
and the distance apart at which these
tiles are placed. The following table
will give the numbers Of feet Of tiles
required per acre when laid in par
allel lines at distances Indicated: 20
feet apart, 2,17S feet; rs feet, 1,742
feet; 80 feet apart. 1852 feet; 40 feet
apart, 1889 feet; 50 feet apart, 872
feet; 100 feet apart, H36 feet; $50
feet apart, 291 feet; SuO feet apart,
21S feet. This table will make It pos
sible for one to make preliminary
estimate of the cost of the tiles nee
essary for draining a field. 1t might
be stated here that tiles can be pur-
chased cheaper when obtained in car
load lots. Farmers. of a community
often cooperate in purchasing tiles in
this way.
The Agronomy Division of the State
College of Agriculture will be glad to
furnish those interested with list of
tile manufacturers and give other in
formation.

FIXES SALE PRICE ON
THE Lowry RABBIT

Atlanta, Ga, January 1l.-Since
rabbits have become staple article
OF meat because of wars high prices,
the Food Administration in Georgia
has dignitled the tender drum of the
modest cotton tail by fixing a maxi
Mum price at which rabbits shall be
sold to the retail public throughout
the state
Dressed rabbits will sell at &c cents
pound, according to the plan of the
Food Administration, which is about
the same price that good lo;n steak
was selling for few years ago, be-
fore the war played havoc with the
tood situation here and in other
countries.
Although practically all of the rab-
bits now being sold at meat markets
are ordinary cotton tails" killed in
the fields, the raising of Belgian
harcs is being taken up seriously as
business proposition in many parts
OF tn" state. They multiply with
great iapidity and there is no better
meat i'll the world than a tender drum
