BROKEN BREAD FOR EMpLoYEs

The returned bread and rolls in the average hotel will amount to hun dred pounds day, says a correspon- dent of the Hotel Gazette, and in the past it has been sold for chicken feed, or absolutely wasted. As this is good clean food, he suggests that it be packed in 5-pound sacks, each sealed, and sold to hotel employees with fami- lies for about two cents pound, the sales to be conducted by the time keeped as employees are leaving for home. Even though such bread be- came little stale it would be suitable for buildings and other dishes. Food administration rules for careful serv- ice of bread in hotel and restaurants are reducing the percentage of left over material.

more or less success. Each herder should carry in his outfit 100 or more prepared powders consisting of 10 grains each of potassium permanate and aluminium sulphate. Several long necked pint bottles should be included and when sheep shows symptoms of poisoning, dissolve one powder in a bottle of water and give slowly. This dose should be repeated in twenty minutes.
 Fannie acid in 60 grain powders is also an excellent antidote for any vegetable poison.
 In cases where the animal suffers from convulsions as in poisoning from death comas, 2 dram doses of chlorai lyptriate may be beneficial.

VEGETABLE POISONING
OF SHEEP

UT oIGLi
 Every experienced sheepman is familiar with the losses incurred among sheep fro meating poisonous plants. Losses usually occur in the spring at which time the sheep, after long trip from the winter range, have an inordinate desire for greens, and unfortunately some varieties of poisonous plants are among the first to develop.
 1 shall endeavor to give a brief description of a few of the more common plants particularly danger ous to sheep.
 Death Camas or Wild Onion.
 This plant develops very early in the spring and has been known to cause the death of over 2,000 head in single day.
 The leaves are lance-shaped, with straight simple stem and bulb-like root, greatly resembling tough onion. The flowers are greenish vel low in color.
 Symptoms: Greatly resemble stry- chnine poisoning. Animal becomes very restless from severe pain. Tremb- ling and frothing at the mouth are next seen. Death ensues in from one to three hours. Mortality, 50 to 75qt
 Loco or Rattle. Weed.
 Loco is already too we'll known to go into detail about, suffice to say that sheep occasionally fall victim to this curse of the stockman.
 Larkspur.
 In a recent article on larkspur poi soning of cattle described this plant and gave symptomss. The same will apply to sheep.
 Lupine; Wild Pea. Wild or Blue Bean
 There are several dozen varieties of lupine; all are members of the pea family. None seem to be poisonous until reaching maturity.
 The most common lupines are rath- CT tall, with branching forms. Leaves are green above and silver-gray be- heath. The flowers vary from blue to white.
 Symptoms: The sheep become ex- cited, walks in a circle and butts its head against any intervening objects. Paralysis then sets in and death end the struggle in from a few hours to day or so from the time of eating.
 There are many other plants that cause losses in sheep, but I believe that the above will cover most of the varieties found on our range.
 Ageneral line of treatment may be applied to all vegetable poisoning with

PLAIN STATEMENT OF
 FACT AS TO RANCE

President Frank J. Hagenbarth. ot
 the National Wool Growers associa,
 tion, has the following to say of the 640-acre homestead law, and it would
 seem that there was much merit in his argument, which includes all stock in dustries of the great southwest:
 "One of the anomalies of the gener- ally theoretical campaign for the in- creased production of meats and the encouragement of livestock production throughout the United States is the fact that such encouragement is asked for by word of mouth, whereas, as a matter of fact, all legislation, whether state or national, now on the statute books or which has become effective of late years, as we'll as the present demand for decreased consumption, has been, while not directly aimed against the production of livestock, at least it has had discouraging effect.
 One case in point is the now threat bare subject known as the "640-acre grazing homestead act" Had cum ming scheme been devised for the de- struction of livestock production in the west, nothing more effective could have been hit upon than this seeming ly meritorious and innocent law. The remarkable part of it was that the law was passed without any general demand for it; without any investiga- tion of it's economic effects on the west and the nation at large, and seemingly the spirit animating con- gress was to get rid of as much land as possible for nothing and regardless of the economic effect of such legisla- tion. As we view it now and as is un- deniably the caes, the 64O-acre law was mistake from any point of view. First, it is of practically no benefit to the homesteader; secondly, it is a positive detriment to the livestock in- terests of the west; thirdly, it consti- tutes loss to the nation at large, and, fourth, it represents practically an absolute economic waste.
 "All the livestock interests of the sections involved, three out of every four influential senators and congress men whom we have interviewed, and the public generally throughout the west are of the firm opinion that the proper method of handling the re- maining vacant western public do- main was, first, to classify and then distribute them to the best economic advantage as shown by the classified tion made.
 Congress itself realized this prin- ciple and included in the 640-acre law and emasculated provision for class ification. In its haste to dispose of the subject, congress did not even take time to write law which can be constructively applied--it is open to various interpretations. We have en- deavored to have the provisions of the law set aside during the period of the war and for one year there after. The matter has been placed before every department in Washington having au- thority to act and presumably having influence with congress and the presi- dent. The uniform result can best be expressed by the familiar expression, passing the buck" of which we were the victims. Like a shuttlecock we were tossed from department to de- partment and from bureau to bureau the final result has been nil.

The Mexican government has filed suit in the Superior court of Santa Cruz county to collect s100,000 from the Fl Paso Cattle company. It is alleged that the Fl Paso company bought 5000 head of cattle from the Mexican estate of General Luis Ter razas, shipped them into the United States through the port of Nogales and failed to make payments. The cattle were confiscated by Francisco Villa when he was governor of Chi huahua under the Carranza regime.

That the army will concentrate at Phoenix large number of horses for the cavalry arm is indicated by a military order for the enlargement and disinfection of one of the largest stockyards of the city for the recep- tion of horses. Very few horses suit able for cavalry use remain within the Salt river valley, though a consider able number of draft animals for the artillery may be picked up here.

A number of cattle in the Walnut Grove section of Yavapai county have recently died, either from poison or a strange new disease. They die with in few hours after the sickness manifests itself and not one animal exhibiting the symptoms has been saved. Some cattlemen are of the opinion that the cattle are being kill ed by a poisonous insect or the lark spur plants, which are growing pro- fusely since the recent rains.

SHEARING IN FULL BLAST

The Hudspeth Sheep company has 5000 sheep at its pens near McConni- co and shearing is in full operation. Machines are being used and the shearers are making big money. Wool is the highest ever known and the fleeces are heavy. Many other sheep men are bringing their flocks for shearing, Johns and Trenbath having several thousand head at Munds where shearing is in progress.
 Weeds and grass are coming up strong and the whole country will soon be in shape to care for an i'm mense number of sheep.-Kingman Miner.

8-KOUR AMENDMENT
Clerk Answers Representa-
tive's Defense of His Pro-
posed Legislation.
DOUBTS 1T WAR MEASURE

Rebuttal of Representative Borland's
defense of his amendment calling for
an eight-hour day for employees of the
Department of Agriculture. made be-
fore the Treasury Department branch
of the Federal Employees Union last
Friday night, is contained in the fol-
lowing article by a government clerk,
submitted to The Star:
"Mr Borland made the statement that
no clerk had entered word of pro-
test.
There are reasons. In the past it has
never been thought just exactly
healthy for clerk to protest against
anything. Although the gag rule has
been eliminated. It will be for the next
generation to fearlessly exercise the
divine prerogative of free speech
NO chief clerk has ever questioned
the right and justice of the eight-hour
law, but each one has said that be-
cause of the .peculiarities' of the work
in his particular office the extra hour
Mr.. Borland himself has said his inten-
tion is for an eight-hour day without
time for lunch-waS not needed Why ?
Nor the same reason. No chief clerk
wants to go on record as opposing a
war measure nor does he want to lose
his position.
