ONLY FOUR SO
 FAR ENLISTED
 AS VAR NURSES
Miss Rose Benito. Miss Sereta Robinson. Miss Blanch Chambers. Miss Weed


 Miss Blanch Chambers.
 Miss Weed.
 These patriotic young women have offered their services to their country as Red Cross nurses. They have made application to care for the wounded men fighting in the cause of liberty and are waiting word that they have been accepted for the great work. They WeFe the first nurses In the city 10 answer the call of Surgeon General Gorgas who is seeking to conserve the health and the lives of the boys who have joined the colors.
 lt is less than fortnight ago that Miss Benito. Miss Robinson and Miss Chambers completed their nurses train ing course and they are eager to give tlc country the benefit of their years of constant study. Miss Weed has fol- lowed her profession in Phoenix for the past few months and she, too, counts it a privilege to be among the first Co make application as a Red Cross nurse.
 By noon Monday the number of graduate nurses, who have made ap- IHcation for Red Cross service. must be reported to the San Francisco head quarters.
 This was the word received here yesterday by Mrs. Win Wylie, chair man of the committee of Red Cross nurses who stated that Arizona's quota was 20. The Central Arizona chapter section is supposed to furnish at least half the number and has so far fallen way below the mark.
 Mrs. Wyhe is confident that when the matter is put up to the nurses the enrolment will go way over the top for there seems to be a misunder- standing among the nurses in the city who have heard that the call is for immediate service. This is not true, says Mrs. Wylie
 There is a general impression that the nurses will be called into service at once even before they have time to arrange their affairs. In reality it takes fully two months before the ap- phcations are considered and a nurse could hardly be called before another month and the probability is that it might be a year.
 The government inaugurated the campaign in order that it might know how many nurses it might count on for service at some future time.''
 Arizona has responded to. every pa triOtic movement in such a wonderful whole soued manner that l feel as- sured that the nurses of the state who realize the country's s need of them Will enroll as a Red Cross nurse. We must furnish our quota. We must be as big and fine in this as we have been giv- ing our men and our dollars. It means almost as much to the cause of liberty in furnishing an army of nurses as it does in furnishing an army of men, The women gave the men and I am confident now that the time has come they will give themselves
 The application for enrolment as an American Red Cross nurse may be had at the chomber of commerce or at St. Joseph's hospital.

DAIRYNEN PAY RECORD PRICES
 FUR FINE COWS

Those who have passed through what has undoubtedly been a crisis in the dairying industry. tue to needed war establishments of this essential factor i'm human life, will be heartened hy a telegram which came to J. J. Gould yesterday from Frank Reed Sanders which reads
 "Holstein bull Champion Eeho
 Silvia sold today for S1060o0.
 Numerous animals exceeded S10-
 COO. No such auction sale of dairy
 cattle was ever held in the worlds
 history. Nearly 5000 breeders at
 sale. Widest enthusiasm prevailed.
 Houghton reelected. Tell all Hol-
 stein men"
 This telegram shows as clearly as Hnything can that there need be no fear for the future of this great in dustry. Owing 10 the price of feed and other war conditions there has been a temporary slump but this seems to be now a thing of history or else such prices would not be paid for dairying cattle of any kind at this or any other time.
 Undoubtedly the great industry has not suffered as severely from certain uKlaual conditions all over the United Sutcs as it did in this section but there has never been any doubt in the minds of experts but that dairying in the Salt River Valley would continue and upon an even larger scale for mo- where in tho world is better milk pro- duced or do better cattle exist in more favored natural circumstances.

GREAT FALLS POWER
BILL IS INTRODUCED
Representative Cary Seeks Develop
ment to Aid District.

Interest in the Great Falls power
project was revived in Congress
yesterday when Congressman Cary,
OF Wisconsin, introduced a bill un-
der which the falls would be devel-
oped under army engineers.
Those interested in the bill are
particular to impress that the pow
er developed could to some extent
be utilized for heating, thereby
lcssening the demand for coal in
the District.
Definite purpose of the bill would
lie two-fOld:
First. to provide light and power
for government buildings in Wash
ington.
Second. to provide light and pow
tr for citizens at cost.
At the first propitious moment it
Z; believed that Senator Norris, who
for years has backed this project,
viii renew his efforts to get legis-
lation.
1t seems but logical that the leg
islation be put through in connec-
ton with the general water power
bill. which is now being formulated
by a new committee in the House.

ship PROGRAM
DELAY CAUSED
BY RAILROADS
Chairman Hurley Appeals
. to McAdoo for Increased
Train Service.

The Shipping Boards program Is
being hampered SO seriously by
transportation congestion that
chairman Edward N. Hurley has
made a splendid appeal to Director
General OF Railways McAdoo to
move materials long on the way and
still undelivered.
Chairman Hurley. in a statement
last night, said the situation IS
such as to warrant, in his BELIEF,
the giving of preference to ship
material second to fuel for homes.
He suggested an embargo on non
essential industries until the rail-
road jam could be cleared.
The general Industrial suspension
order OF the Fuel Administration.
. he feared, might be nullified to an
appreciable extent by the speeding
up Of the manufactures and the
burdening OF the roads with a new
oyer-production of non-essenttal
materials. unless such freight be
barred temporarily
As an instance Of the hating or
shipbuilding by the crowding OF
the roads, Mr.. Hurley referred to
hundreds OF cars loaQeQ Win shcoA
plates for fabricating vessels, on
the way since December 20, and still
somewhere in America" The Sub
marine Boat Company, with yards
in Newark. N. J., he mentioned par
.ticuIarly as in need of the fabricated
plates.
The Shipping Board is working
now with the War College on the
first definite and centralized scheme
for the coordination Of the ship
ping program and comprehensive
survey Of the national and inter
national ocean freight requirements.
The board is collaborating with the
War College through Charles Day,
Of Philadelphia, q mechanical engi-
neer. who recently was the Ship
ping Boards investigator of port
terminal facilities in France.

AMERICAN GIRLS BECOME
SUCCESSFUL MILK DEALERS

American girls are fast beccmln-
efficient dairy farmers at the various
agricultural training camps. One oi
the first of these was established at
Purdue university, where the girls
we're trained to test milk, dairy bac
teriology, general dairying and the
art of cheese making and ice cream
manufacture. Likewise, from Cali
fornia 10 Maine, agricultural colleges
are training thousands of young la
dies to step in and take the place
OF men already engaged in dairying,
or to aid the present force to increase
the production of these food prod
ucts.
OF this work the professor in
charge at Purdue says: Women
must take mems places in order that
food production be maintained. OF
the many lines of production now
necessary, none is more applicable
to women labor than certain parts
of the dairy industry. The scarcity
Of men who can carry on the many
phases of the work required by the
dairy industry is a serious handicap
TO its efficient and proper develop
ment. As a matter of personal pa
iriotism, as well as national service,
It behooves all to serve at this time
in the most effective way"
It was with this end in view that
tic various colleges and universities
have designed courses to prepare wo.
men to fill the positions in factories
manufacturing the various dairy pro-
ducts. The courses have been limit
"a to women only, that there be no
hesitancy associated with joining the
classes. The classroom work is COM |
posed mostly of lectures, although in
certain instances, special readings
from assigned texts are used. Labor
otory exercises give personal expert
ence in the operation of the various
processes. and the major amount OF
time of the course is devoted to this
class of work.
Any woman may become an eff
Gent milk tester, cheese or ice cream
maker who has had good common
school education. No entrance ey-
animation is demanded, though all
are expected to have passed the Sth
grade, This gives the student a good
Intellectual foundation upon which to
tase the dairy industry course she
nay choose to take.
Farmers daughters and young wo-
men who lives in the country or on
arms will do well to take this course
,f training.

Again an auto approached and
again he challenged, and this time

"A French ambulance with woun-

Some minutes elapsed In which all
was silent and then the sound of an
auto engine at high speed whirred
through the night.
Halt, who goes the-e?" Pat for
the third time called, and out of the
light came the reply.
