SHERIFF HALL RETURNS
FROM BIG MAN HUNT

Back from the greatest man-hunt
the Southwest has seen for many a
day. Sheriff Henry Hall returned this
week to Florence after a week spent
in pursuit of the Powers -Sisson out
laws, who killed Sheriff Mcbride of
Graham county and two of his depu
ties before making their escape to
the mountains. AS hearty and fit as
ever, Sheriff Hall seems to have en-
tirely recovered from his late sick
ness, a fact borne out by his endur
ance in the grueling chase after the
murderers, which took him as far as
Rodeo, N. M. .
With Sheriff Hall we're Jeff Adams,
former sheriff of Maricopa county,
and Policeman Strathy of Phoenix
The officers, while not entirely aban-
doning hope that the outlaws might
yet be caught, gave it as their opin-
ion that the men had made their
escape into Mexico. The outlaws
were equipped with high-powered
binoculars, which they stole from the
bodies of the dead officers, and with
these, doubtless, they were enabled
to keep a sharp lookout for their pur-
suers. Added to the roughness 'of
the country was the circumstance of
a tremendous storm of snow and
rain, which finally made further track
ing of the outlaws impossible and OBJ
liberated all trace of their course. At
last reports, however, they appeared
to be headed for the border, which
was not far distant. A man named
Kelly, who is charged with having
acted as a scout for the murderers,
is being held by the military author
tiles.

Are Your Club
Dues Paid? IF Not,
Better Get in Line

A campaign is on foot to round up
delinquent members of the Ray Con
Club who are behind in their dues
also new members are cordially in
vited to join.
The club, in putting on it's entertain
ments this winter, has spared no ex-
pense to get good numbers and in re-
turn they expect the support of the
people of Ray. All expenses are de-
frayed by the yearly dues, which are
not large at all, and if you are not
already member in good standing
join at once and become an integral
part of the club and it's good times
While out of town friends and visitors
are always welcome to any of the club
doings, it is felt that many Rayites
rather impose on the generosity of
the club by not doing their part in
paying dues.

GLOBE, Ariz., Feb. 22.-With the
construction of two-mile stretch of
road by the Gibson Consolidated Cop
per Mining company, intersecting the
road built recently by ella county
from Miami to the Schultz ranch, one
of the branches of the proposed new
roads between Miami and Phoenix via
Superior, will be finished. Officials
of the company state the construc-
ton of the road is made necessary
because of the large amount of busi-
ness which is being done at the pres
ent and the poor road facilities for
moving the ore from the mine to the
mill and smelter.
twenty-five Americans and the
same number of Indians started work
on the construction of the new road
this morning. After they have com
pleted this they will repair two
mile stretch joining on the new road.

When was asked to accept the ap-
pointment of county food admins
traitor for Pinal county, I hesitated
some little time before going to Phoe-
nix and taking the government oath
of office. Well I knew what a task
lay before me. I had already been
initiated in the government food con-
servation service as chairman of the
hotel and restaurant commission for
Ray. But some one had to accept this
appointment as county food admins
traitor. 1t was up to some one who
could give their time and attention to
it.
Some have said: "Well, Mullen,
you will have plenty of trouble now,
and also make many enemies" I
don't think should make enemies in
the performance of my duties. Ger
tainly every loyal American wants to
help win the war, and those people
who are not loyal to America and her
allies are no friends of mine. Those
are the kind of people we are looking
for, and it is the duty of every patri-
otic citizen to report one wherever
they are fund. Now, I want the help
of every loyal American in Pinal coun-
ty 1 want the help of every house
wife, by all means. If there is any
loyal American woman in Pinal coun-
ty who has not signed the food con-
servation card, l will be glad to see

FLORENCE MAN HONORED
With MASONIC POST

FLORENCE, Feb. 21-Mr. and Mrs.
G. w. Gorham, Mrs. Eugene Shepherd
and Judge o. ]. Baughn returned from
Tucson last Friday evening, after hay-
ing attended the sessions of the Ma
sonic Grand Lodge and. the Grand
Chapter of the Order of the Eastern
Star in that city.
Mr.. Gorham, who is the patron of
the Florence chapter of the Star, had
a very pleasant surprise at the ses-
sion of the ensuing year. Some of his
friends asked him if he would accept
the position of associate grand patron
if elected, and upon receiving his con-
sent proceeded to exert their influ-
ence among the delegates so that he
was elected by a good majority on
the second ballot. When Mr. Gorham
left Florence he had no thought of
being selected for this position at all,
and the honor came as a very great
surprise. The members of the Flor
ence chapter feel that their chapter
has been highly honored by this cleo
tion of Mr.. Gorham to be Associate
Grand Patron, inasmuch as Florence
chapter has only been organized about
two years and is one of the youngest
chapters in the state.
Mrs. Eugene Shepherd was the reg
ular accredited delegate of Florence
I chapter to the Grand Chapter, and re-
ports that the sessions of the same
were very interesting and instructive
A new constitution and bylaws were
adopted, the threshing out of the de-
tails of which consumed considerable
time.
At the same time the Grand Chap
ter of Royal Arch Masons and the
Grand Commandery of Knights Tenn
plar also convened.
All of the bodies met in the new
Masonic temple at Tucson for the
first time
Judge Baughn, who has been an
officer of the Grand lodge F. & A. M.
for several years and who held the
place of Junior Grand Steward last
year, was appointed by the incoming
Grand Master, E. A. Hughes of Tomb
stone, as Senior Grand Steward for
the ensuing year.

IRRIGATION AND CULTIVATION ARE
DISCUSSED BY MRS. MORE IN WAR
GARDEN SERIES FOR RAY HOE FAM

Having furnished the seeds with IA
duty to see that they are supplied
with sufficient moisture. Nature gives
us an abundance of water in the
spring, but it remains for us to sup
plement the supply by means of the
hose during the summer. The garden
should be watered only twice a week,
even during the hottest weather-but
this does not mean a mere moistening
Of the surface. A thorough applica-
tion must be made, until the ground
is well soaked. The object is to drive
the water into the ground, and to keep
it available for the use of the plants
The common practice of irrigating
every night, until the ground looks
wet, does more harm than good; the
next days sun dries up the surface
moisture and bakes hard crust over
the. ground. Above all, never water
the garden while the sun shines.
Capillarity is a physical property of
the ground, whereby the water rises to
the, surface through the pores of the
soil; it is then evaporated, and car
ried back to the clouds, to be in readi-
ness for service again. Cultivation
should follow a heavy rain, or irriga-
ton of the garden, as soon as the sur
face becomes dry enough to be worked

1t seems to have been ages, but it
is only matter of two or three weeks
since our reporter tried to interview
Mr.. l.. Keith Darst, the eminent car
toonist, whose work appears exclusive
ly in Copper Camp, for publication.
Our readers may remember the facts
all the reporter had asked Of Mr..
Darst was his photograph for publica-
ton. When they brought to him to
and two more-he was in the hospital.
What weapons were used in the fray
remains to this day an unsolved mys-
terry. To call the affair fray, how
ever, is to do it an injustice. So far
as we have been able to ascertain,
there were but two blows struck-Mr.
Darst hit the reporter, and the re-
porter hit the floor.
Our reporter is about to make an
other attempt to gain satisfactory
interview. Behold him, advancing
cautiously toward the Darst residence,
waving a flag of truce. He is chal-
lenged by the sentry. The reporters
crutch is the open sesame to the sane
tum sanctorum. With knees aquiver,
he begins:
"Mr. Darst, are you German?"
mo, I'm human" ,,
do you drink anything?"
"Oh, yes-anything."
(Do you believe that the saloons
must go?"
"Yes-and we must keep them 60
ing"
What is your opinion regarding the
cost of living in Arizona?"
Zone can obtain the biggest bargains
in the world here. I can buy whole
Copper Camp for nickel every
week."
C'Well, why don't you?"-Ed)
81 understand that you are quite a
student of the English language, Mr..
Darst. Will you tell our readers what
the longest sentence is?"
Life Imprisonment"
"That is a good cigar you are smok-
ing, Mr.. Darst."
Eyes, it is. I walked a mile to get
it; 1 thought the man would NEVER
drop it,"
"Do you hope to learn Spanish?"
%Yes, if l live long enough"
"Have you ever heard Sam sing his
song, is Crochet More Tidy Than
Knit? What do you think of his exc
cution?",
81 am in favor of it,
IF you saw our church burning up,
what would you say?"
"Holy smoke!"

an effort to report this interview yer

Cultivation is the act of breaking up
the surface of the ground, retarding
the capillary action below the surface
and retaining the water around the
roots of the plants. The deeper and
more thorough this cultivation, the
larger and deeper the resultant root
growth and, with a healthy root sys-
TEN, the danger from summer heat and
drouth is much diminished. Do not
cultivate when the plants are too
young. When they grow larger and
become firmly fixed in the ground,
cultivate-and keep it up. By this
practice rapid growth of the first gar
den produce, such as lettuce, radishes,
beets and the like, is stimulated,
thereby increasing the flavor; slow
growing vegetables tend to develop a
strong, disagreeable flavor
The tools for cultivation may be as
simple or elaborate as you care to
make them. A large nail or stick, or
an old carving fork will serve the pur-
pose. A claw-shaped implement, with
either long or short handle, can
be bought for a small sum. A hoe can
be used where space permits, and a
wheel cultivator saves time and en-
ergy, but is not recommended for anna
teur work in a small garden.

work together to help Uncle Sam.
For the love of our country, for the
love of those who are fighting for us

and sugar. Remember the wheatless
and porkless days. I believe by this
time that all the merchants under
stand the new government law known
as the fifty-fifty rule. If not, I will
be glad to explain it to anyone. There
is also a new law, effective at once,
regarding all hotels restaurants, cafes,
clubs, boarding houses, dining cars,
and steamships manufacturing bakery
products. All bread and rolls must
contain 20 per cent substitutes; sweet
yeast goods, crackers, biscuits, cook
les, ice cream cones, cakes and pies
and fried cakes, SO 1-3 per cent, and
batter cakes and waffles, rs per cent
The authorized substitutes are bran,
shorts, middlings, corn-flour, corn
meal, edible corn starch, hominy, corn
grits, barley flour, rolled oats, oat-
meal rice, rice flour, potato flour,
sweet potato flour, buckwheat flour,
cottonseed flour, milo maize, feterita

BY a counter attack from Ypres they
might reconquer all the ground lost

He removed 1t and continued to
work until overcome by the fumes.
Commanders of units that partici-
pated In the fighting In the Apre-
mont forest are finding II difficult
to single out the especially valor-

like a hero. Twice In twenty-four
hours the Americans assisted the
French In the neighboring sector to
regain trenches that Germans had
taken temporarily. At one point
there is space of only fifteen yards
between the opposing trenches. The
day before the attack the Germans
threw a note into the American
trenches which read, what are you,
Canadians or Australians ?" Come
over and find out" was the reply
thrown back by an American.
