The BoIsheviki Have Invad-
ed Kansas

Wichita, April 1.-The Bolsheviki
have invaded Kansas.
The American counterpart of the
movement which paralyzed Russia
and released $4,000, 900 German
soldiers for use on the west front is
busy here.
Only last week President Wilson
received official information that
Nicolai Lenine, head Of the Russian
BoIshevists, had undertaken to
spread his doctrines in the United
States, and is being financed by mil
lions in German money, according
to Washington dispatches.
Last fall Wichita had its first taste
of Bolshevism when the federal au-
thorities here raided the headquart.

county oil fields, seizIng a great
quantity of incriminating literature.
1t was proven that the plan waa to
gain sob control" at the oil fields,
lncite class hatred and industrial
disturbances and hinder or stop the
production of fuel oil, which is one
of the prime war essentials.
The |. W. W. Doctrines are al
most prtcisely the same as those of
the Russian Bolsheviki. The pur-
pose is to set up such great distur.
Dances anc unrest that Ir. :cu-
ton of the war will be hindered and
the United States forced to accept
an inconclusive peace. Class hatred
is the key note of the Propaganda,
and it is being played up in every
possible manner.
lhe partners OF the L. w. w. are
the Nonpartisan League and the rad
ical socialists.
With the avowed purpose of gain.
ing 'job contral"in the wheat fields,
as in the oil fields, an agreement was
affected last summer between the /.
Wv. and the Nonpartisan League
Arthur LeSueur, general attorney for

of the socialist college at Fort Scott,
is also executive secretary of the
Nonpartisan League. He said to

An abortive attempt was made by
Nonpartisan League leaders to deny
any connection with the |. w. w.
but incontrovertible evidence was
furnished in the issue of Solidarity, "
official organ of the 1. W. w., for
July 81, 1917, which told of the
agreement in black and white.
The League leaders are all radical
socialists or ardent champions of the

The Apache Lumber Company has
contracted to cut two hundred and
thirty-five million board feet of lumber,
valued at $528, 10000, in the White
Mountains adjoining their scene of
operations near Pinetop.
There are four hundred million
board feet of fine timber open to be
contracted, and may be secured from
the government by applying to the
Forest Office at Snowflake, Arizona.
In addition to the wealth of the
timber belt so vast in extent and now
about to be converted into lumber
prospecting work on a new oil field,
wide in extent, is now well under
way This field extends from Snow
flake northward to Adamana on the
northeast and to Winslow on the
northwest, with Holbrook as the cen
ter and business point of operations.
Four sound, enterprising and progress

Oil and Development Company, The
Hopi Oil Company The Adamana Oil
and Land Company and the Holbrook
Oil Company are now actively en-

of which are drilling to the oil sands

SitgreaVes National Forest
Across the southern end of Navajo
county is a major portion of the ST.
greaves National Forest. situated on
the southern edge of what is known
as the Colorado plateau, extending
east and west a distance of eighty
miles along the MogollOn rim and
the Colorado and Salt River divide
The rim is line of nearly peTpen-
dicular rock, from 500 to 1000 feet
high, facing south. For a distance Of
twenty miles the west end of the for
est is impossible, except in a few
places. Farther east the descent is
less abrupt.
Practically all drainage is toward

growing seasons of the various sec
tions is estimated at $50 days.
The average results obtained with
irrigation are about as follows:
Alfalfa, 31a tons per acre
Corn, 40 bushels per acre
Wheat As bushels per acre
Oats, so bushels per acre
Potatoes, $50 bushels per acre.
Garden produce of all descriptions
grows in abundance in this wonderful
climate, both by dry farming and irri-
cation methods.
Markets
In addition to foreign shipments of
produce which are greatly facilitated
by the building of the new Apache
railway, giving an outlet to all of
southern Navajo county and which
joins the main line of the Santa Fe
railroad at Holbrook on the north, the
local towns consume a considerable
portion of the products of the agri-
the White River Indian Agency, to-
gether with the large sheep and cattle
raising outfits scattered throughout
the country already afford larger
demand than can be supplied. The
new railroad and the mill towns to be
built in the timber belt the coming
summer will enlarge the market for
all kinds of produce many times its
present size.
UndeVeIoped Resources
There are at present undevelOped
coal fields extending from Showlow
through the timbered belt to Heber,
distance of about thirty miles. Several
claims have been taken up and some
little assessment work done on them,
but no development has been at
tempted for the lack of transporta-
tion facilities. Now that the railroad
is building into the vicinity it is ex-
pected that interest will be awakened

SOUTHERN NAVAJO COUNTY
Seasons

The seasons here, as elsewhere in
the southwest, are divided into we'll
defined summer and winter Rainy
seasons are by far the most important
because they include the growing sea-
son of ordinary crops, although the
latter part of the winter rainy season
is important since moisture coming at
this time may be stored and held in
the soil by proper methods of cultiva-
tion.
The summer rainy season, during
which nearly one-half of the total pre-
cipitation falls, is more consistent
than any of the other seasons in it's
length and intensity. The first rains
fall about the first of July and con-
tinue intermittently for two months.
The precipitation comes as short thun-
der showers with occasional Lighter
and longer rains.
The pre-summer drouth is variable
in its time of starting, occasionally
beginning as early as February, but
usually only the months of April, May
and June are considered in this sea-
son. The entire period is never passed
without one or more showers with an
occasional good rain.
The stormy season of the winter
usually extends from November first
to March. Only small portion of the
precipitation is in the form of snow
except in the mountains. The rains
are usually steady and soaking. The
ground usually remains frozen part
of the time but in less degree than
is usual in a country of the same
temperature.
Crops
Crops are usually planted in April
or May. The average length of the

a swell big French Chateau with three
driveways leading back to the house
from the large iron gates and trees
between the drives. The whole place

sure is swell but the only trouble is
we live in the attic Of the barn, not
so bad though at that. I get all ! want
to eat and my bed tick is full Of nice
dry hay with three good warm blan-
