TOMBSTONE PIONEER
 GOES TO REWARD

w. K Meade. for many years a resident of Tombstone. passed away this morning shortly before 10 o'clock at his home, following only brief illness.
 MT. Meade. who since the resig- nation of Sheriff H. C. Wheeler from the Cochise County Draft Board had held the place as member of the. board. having been appointed by Governor Hunt. and although a man of years. had devoted considerable of his time to the board Last week he was taken i'll with severe case of grippe. bordering on pneu mona, but had apparently recover ed and yesterday. although very weak. was seen about his usual haunts The news of his death this morning came as complete shock 10 his many old-time friends. since he had apparently suffered no ill effects from his recent illness.
 W. K. Meade came to Tombstone in 1879. and since that time, although engaged extensively in mining. and various business enterprises, was also prominently identified with pol irics in the then territorial days. and later in state politics. During both administrations of President Cleye- land he held the position of United States Marshal. and prior to that had been a member of the 11th Leg islative Assembly, that made Cochise county out of Pima county. having been elected from Pima county. In Cochise county in later years he was also actively engaged in coun- ty politics and was known to have been a power in this county for number of years. before retiring from active political life. Of late. however. he had again become active in state politics and was an ardent Hunt supporter. and stuck with him throughout the governorship con test. He was a lifelong democrat and had a legion of friends. especial ly among the many old timers of the state who knew him and asso- ciated with him.
 The deceased was 67 years of age at the time of his death. and he was born in Virginia.
 No funeral arrangements have been announced although it is thought the body will not be held pending the arrival of relatives who live in Vir- ginia, although they have been noti- fed.

CONSERVATION OF
 WHEAT IS EMPHASIZED

PHOENIX, March 12-The abso- lute necessity of further wheat con servation, as a war measure is held responsible for a change in the food conservation program for Arizona, an- nounced by the federal food admins tration today,
 Beginning Monday. March II, no wheat four should be sold by retail CTS except on the ffty-fifty basis with official substitutes. The use of po- tatoes as a substitute in those locali- ties which have been allowed this privilege will be discontinued Re tai!ers having no substitutes on hand will be required to hold their wheat flour until supplies of the official are received.
 To lessen the strain imposed by this drastic ruling. the food admins traitor announces that the ban against the use of pork and pork products will be raised except on Tuesdays.
 Porkless Saturdays have been elim ina.ed. Beginning today. Tuesdays will be beefless and porkless. Mutton and lamb may be served until April l5. as we'll as fish and game. Hens or bullets should not be used for food on Tuesdays or any other day. though there is no restriction against the use of broilers weighing two pounds or less. live weight.
 The butchers of the state will be asked to lend their patriotic coopera- tion toward carrying out the new or der of affairs
 Positive instructions have been re- ceived by the federal food admins tration for Arizona from Washington 10 permit no deviation from the ob- servance of the official list of wheat flour substitutes in the sale of wheat four by retailers beginning next Mon day. The whole basis of the change of program. it is explained by wire from Washington, is to substitute our more abundant meats for our less apundant breadstuffs.

MURDERED MAN IS
 FOUND NEAR coUNTY'3 EDGE

PHOENIX. March l2-Sho; through the back of the head end lief. on n., untain top for m Jnths before his ho6y was discovered. was the fate of an unknown. What was left of the body was discovered by a sheep herder. yesterday who reported at once to Harry Cox of Hot Springs Junction. who in turn notified the county authorities
 Kenneth C. Falston. the man who vaninshed from sight last Novem- Der had light brown hair and for a time yesterday it was believed that the body of the dead man found near the Junction might be his. In fact. there is so little left to go by in the remains found hat this may even yet be possible though the au- thorities believe it is not probable
 
 Falston has some gold teeth but since the jaws of the skull found are missing this chance for a com parison is lost.
 The authorities found g near the body and strands of redish hair in- dicate that the body was that of a white man but that was about all the clew remaining save for small fragments of bone. say the officers who made the 40 mile run to the mountain northeast of Hot Springs. The scant clothing that was left was bleached and only a piece Of woolen shirt and a patch of trous- CTS were found. The coat, hat, shoes were lost, or had been washed down by mountain rains.
 So far as could be learned no one in the vicinity has been missing. The murdered man is believed to have been a miner but this is a mere guess by the officers.
 Justice De Souza, who accompan- led sheriff wilkey and Deputy Sher- ic E. J. Warren to the scene, held an inquest over the remains but no one could identify the man or throw any light on the mystery.

ARMY MAY PUT
 LID ON Ro0Eo

According to parties coming from Douglas yesterday there is rumor there that the liquor dealers at Ro- deo may be put out of business in the near future or forced to move their saloons if bootlegging con- tinues. was the conclusion drawn from reports that the military au- thorities are considering a novel plan 10 stop the sale of liquor to soldiers.
 Under President Wilson's procla- nation of May IS. 1917. it is unlaw full to conduct liquor houses or houses of prostitution within five miles of any army camp. If troop Of cayaIrymen were sent to Rodeo or a point within five miles of Ro- deo, all saloons or houses of III fame would have to close at once.
 What action the military will take along this line has not been deter mined. It is known, however, that the military authorities look with disfavor on the continued operations of bootleggers among the soldiers. Douglas has been asked to clean lp, and it is practically certain that some way will be found to strike at the seat of the trouble.
 If the saloons at Rodeo were clos ed. most of the bootlegging in this city and surrounding country woala be dealt a death blow. If asmaIl detachment of soldiers were ordered to within the five mile zone, liquor dealers would be compelled, 70 close up or move to some other point. h that event, the soldiers could move also and the proposition would re- solve itself into a game of check CTS between the saloon keepers ard military men, with the command its your move," by the latter continually.

 Tombstone's young heir and Tucsons young heir are just alike only they different. The Tucson one likes yellow in his while the good old red white and blue goes for the Tombstone lad Wonder why Governor Hunt did not answer the Tombstone Commercial Clubs telegram regarding the Tombstone-Bisbee road work Surely he is ignor- ing Tombstone altogether.
 The weather predicts Cochise county is to get the tail end of big rain storm Hope don't get the tail end of everything especially the road work
