 ISSUED FUR STATE

A report for Arizona on cantaloup, watermelon and potato data and condi- tons, with comparisons with other years, has just been issued by the de- partment of agriculture through L. M. Harrison, field agent for this district.
 The report shows cantaloups were earlier this year than last by about a week. Harrison estimates 100 carloads of watermelons for the season.

Fifty carloads of potatoes are estimated. the price to the growers being 1i2 cents and 1A cents a pound.

The first car from Glendale was shipped June 18th and the first from Mesa followed on the 2lth. Last year the first car to roll left Glendale July 2nd. Recent rains have retarded ship ping but did little damage according to a report by the field agent. Up to July 5th, PIP cars had been shipped. About $50 cars are expected for the season. Heaviest shipments are looked for on the 15th. The condition of the crop for the state is 90. Prices: $500 standards; flats s1.25, and ponies s2.50.
 Watermelons- The first car was shipped this year on June 12th, as compared with June 14th and 15th in 1917 and 1916 respectively Forty cars had been shipped up 10 July 9th.

ALLEGED DESPERADO
 |S CAPTURED AFTER
 ESCAPE FROM CAMP

The indiscretion in halting at the point of a 3030 rifle Mexican cow boy, led to the capture yesterday of Fred T. Baker, alias George McLain, on Mormon Flats out from Mesa, by Constable Pickins of Mesa and Deputy Sheriff Charles Nafziger
 Baker escaped from the Clifton road camp about 10 days ago and the prison authorities notified Pickins and others to be on the lookout for him. The Mex ican cowboy while herding cattle, gal loped up unexpectedly to Bakers camp Baker, according to the vaquerro's story, ordered him to "get out and not come back"
 The vaquerro rode into Mesa after he had corralled his cattle and re- ported the incident to Constable Pick ins, giving a description of the man, which tallied with that of Baker sent out by the prison authorities. Picl1ins was about to start for Tor tillo to arrest Valencia Verdugo, wanted in Mesa on charge of stealing cattle, and decided that he could kill two birds with one stone" by having the assistance of denuty from the sher- i ifs office. He and Nafziger ap- preached Bakers camp with caution took Baker by surprise, and covered him with their revolvers before he had time to reach for his rifle. He surren- dered without resistance.
 Bakers camp was well provisioned he having enough food to last him at least two weeks, Constable Pickins ob- served. When Baker escaped from the Clifton road camp. he stole a horse and rode it until nearly dead from ex- haustion and then threw the saddle over the back of another horse h; stole and finally reached Mormon Flats, where, in the opinion of Con stable Pickins, he intended to remain several weeks. until the news of hi. escape blew over" and then make hi. way in safety to another state. Tn, Maricopa authorities were not in formed on what charge Baker wa convicted. Baker was placed in thu county jail.
 Verdugo surrendered to Nafzige and Pickins and was placed in the cit, jail at Mesa He will be arraigned i, the Mesa. justices court at o'clocl this morning.

SUGAR ABUSES ARE
 CHARGED LOCALLY

Gross abuse of the privilege granted to housewives in obtaining sugar for home canning purposes has been de- tected in Maricopa county and has been reported to the federal food ad- ministration, according to a statement from the state food administration.
 Every person requiring sugar for canning purposes is required, under the new federal sugar regulations, to sign a statement to the effect that none of the sugar thus obtained will be used for other than canning or preserving purposes and also that if there is q surplus it will be returned.
 This is the regulation that has been violated. it is said. Evidence has been secured, according to $. J. Bucking- ham. county food administrator, that sugar thus secured by certain house. wives has been placed on the table for ordinary use.
 Confronted with the agreements by these women, they are to be asked to make an explanation as to their ac- tions. All these signed statements are on file in the office of the federal food administrator for this state.
 Each person is allowed a limit of three pounds of sugar per month for ordinary cooking and table purposes, according to fhn federal rules. and any person ho uses more than this allow , ance is taking sugar from the mouths of those in dire need of it. so states | Food Administrator Riordan. Encour- agement of home canning to the great est possible extent is the wish of the government. and it was partly for the benefit of home canners that the re- cent rigid regulations were placed in effect The food administrator states that he trusts no further violations will be reported from Marcopa county
