Meat is the natural diet of the wild
dog and should be an important item
in the sporting dogs diet, observes
Outing. So long as 1t is untainted 1t
makes little difference whether 1t Is
horse. beef or mutton. but pork is not
30 good. and any quantities of fat
should not be fed. Generally 1t is
best to cook the meat In sort of
stew with vegetables mixed, but occa-
sionally q dinner of raw lean meat is
a welcome change and serves as a
tonic and mild laxative. During the
hunting season 1t is a mighty good
Sunday dinner for the shooting dog.

The law provides that all fees
must be paid in advance to the fore
going officials. If the official fol-
lows the law he has the money to
deposit these fees not later than the
first Monday of each month with
the County Treasurer as required
by law. Further, the law provides
also that the official shall not be paid
his salary until he files his monthly
report together with fees collected.
The law should be strictly complied
with, and it is the duty of the
County Attorney and your Honor
able Board to see that the law is
complied with, particularly as re-
lates to the report of the State
Examiner.
By comparing the time when fees
were collected and time when fees
were accounted for to the Treasur-
err, you will note there is consider
able space of time intervening from
ten days to three months.

Liberty Loan bonds of both the first and second issue are being approached from time to time by agents who have, with too frequent success. in duced them to sell their Liberty Loan bonds and take in exchange securi- ties which in a numoer of cases have been of very questionable value.
 Through the intensive work car ried on during the two Liberty Loan campaigns, patriotic army of over ten million bond buyers in this coun- try has been created. It is of the utmost importance that the invest ments of this army of patriots should be safeguarded in every possible way, and that their action in lending their money 10 the Government should not be taken advantage of by irrespons- ible people seeking solely a profit for themselves.
 'I therefore warn investors in Liberty Loan bonds against exchange of these evidences of their patriotism for any security or sO-called securi- ties. While some of the securities. or , '-called securities, offered in eX- change for government bords are of sound value. there is no doubt that a large percentage of them are worth less.
 "T believe it is for the best inter ests of the people at large. as well as for their actual protection. that they disregard all such offers. and hold fast to the best investment ir the world. that is, bonds of their own government
 -" Practically all of the substantia
Arizona republican., 1918-02-05

and representative houses of the country in cooperation with the gov ernment and many other patriot' agencies. have participated in a most unselfish way in both Liberty Loan campaigns, sacrificing their own in terests in order to contribute their share toward winning the war. II is inconceivablc that after the mag nificent work of distributing govern ment bonds thus accomplished in a large measure by investment houses some of the same people should at tempt to substitute other securities for the government bonds which they have just helped in placing. Ii seems evident that a large majority of such offers made to holders of gov ernment bonds must be made by the least responsible of the security mer- chants. and that suspicion as to the character of the bonds offered in exchange. is fully justified
 1t is my earnest hope that every purchaser of Liberty bond will realize that the only genuine help he gives his government is by keep ing his bond as an investment as long as it is possible for him to do so. Where. because of misfortune or imperative necessity. the holder of d Liberty bond is forced to sell, there can. of course. be no objection
 We would greatly appreciate your valued cooperation in conveying Sec retary McAdoo's views on this snb- ! ject to all holders or prospective pur- chasers of Liberty bonds"
