Arizona Ostrich Industry Destroyed.

More than $4,000 pounds of os-
trich meat is to be sold to the peo-
pie of the southern part of Arizona
by order of the state food admins
traitor. 1t will be supplied by the
slaughter of 500 ostriches on the
ranch of J. E. Cogdell, who has found
that the growing of long staple cotton
is more profitable than ostrich cul-
ture..
Most of the flocks that were for
merly found in the Salt River Valley
have been sold or turned loose to
shift for themselves. Only a few
years ago there we're 5000 to 10000
of these giant birds on the ranches
and farms of this section. Ostrich
eggs were served daily on the tables,
and use of ostrich meat was not at
all uncommon.
Some regard it as possibility that
the ostriches which have been let
loose in the foot hills and the un-
cultivated parts of the valley will
become adapted to the wild life and
increase in numbers. But coyotes and
other depredating wild animals are
so fond of the eggs and young os-
triches that it is deemed improba BILE
that they will long exist in the un-
domesticated state.

suit of Big Battle.

Washington, July 2S.-HeaVy
fighting along the Aisne and Marine,
in which American troops have par
ticipated, is beginning to show IN
the casualty lists issued by the war
department. Today's list of 225
names is the longest to be given out
since American units made their ap-
pearance on the battle front. The
list, however, it was believed, gives
casualties resulting from the recent
German offensive operations rather
than from the Allied counter stroke
now in progress.
Total casualties now in the army
and marine corps overseas increase
1850 during the week, compared
with 9S3 the previous week, and ag-

aggregate 7,532-army men 6,34o,
marine 1892. Those missing, in
Guiding prisoners, total 741-arnay
men 657, marines "a.
Of the weeks increase 949 were
army men and 101 marines. Killed
in action and other deaths numbered
393, compared with 427 the pre-
vious week; the wounded numbered
591, compared with 465 the pre-
vious week, and the missing and
prisoners sc, compared with 81 the
previous week.

Wall Of Water and Jagged Ice Cakes
Sweeps Down Big Miami and
Whitewater Rivers.

Cincinnati.-A wall of water and
jagged ice cakes 20 feet high swept
down the Big Miam! and Whitewater
rivers when those swollen streams let
go their floods.
The ice was carried downstream
with such force that trees along the
banks, some of them two and three
feet in diameter, were sliced of as il
by giant knife.
The rush of ice in the Big Miami
river tore away piling and supports
OF the western trestle approach of the
new steel truss bridge of the Balti-
more & Ohio railroad The trestle
for a distance of 200 feet was SO badly
damaged that all trains on the Balti-
more & Ohio railroad to and from
the West were detoured over the Big
Four railroad.
The trestle was struck by the ice
just after Train No 43 for St Louis.
leaving Cincinnati at $50 o'clock, had
passed over the bridge.
Railroad officials said no damage
had been sustained by the steel-truss
bride itself. This bridge, with heav-
lily reinforced concrete abutments, was
built following the 1913 flood.

PIG WEARS A ScANT COAT;
PROTECT HIM FROM COLD.

1t Is still hard for many farm
erS to get rid of the notion that
anything is good enough for
) hogs, yet there is no animal on
the farm which requires better
) protection from the cold than
the hog; none for which a good
bed is more necessary; and none
so much in need of sunshine as
the little pig. The horse and
the cow have good coats of hair
even a calf or colt left in the
cold is provided with a good
fur coat; the hens feathers are
the best of protection against
low temperature, but the hog
has almost nothing between his
skin and the weather. One of
the first requisites for success
with hogs is a shelter where
young pigs can be kept warm
and well supplied with sunshine
and fresh air. A little pig takes
cold very easily and RECEIVERS
slowly if at all. To prevent TAX
ing cold he must be kept dry,
warm, away from drafts and
provided with fresh air. There
