EAT ARIZONA STUDS
 ENCOURAGE PRODUCTION

The recent appeal of the Arizona food administration which is cooper ating with County Agent Nichols in helping to move to market the balance of the Flagstaff potato crop, is one of the many practical and patriotic pub licity campaigns urged. Let every one eat potatoes and more potatoes from this time forward Potatoes should be upon the table at least two meals each day.
 Another thing-when you go to the store to buy potatoes, insist that yor get Arizona grown potatoes. It is time that produce merchants and gro cers came to the rescue of the patrio- tic popato growers of Flagstaff ard other Arizona points where increased acreage was planted last year, and where still quantities of fine potatoes are on hand If your merchant tells you he does not know where to buy Arizona potatoes, tell him to write di- rectly to the marketing committee of the Coconino County Farm Bureau, Flagstaff, or other potato marketing firms in Northern Arizona--Mesa Tribune.

ESPEE MAKES ITS OWN
 INK AND MUCILAGE

Local Southern Pacific officials said today that the railroad is now manu- featuring it's own ink, mucilage and paste as wartime measure.
 Encouragement is also given the 45,000 employees of the Pacific system to apply thrift to their office work. One result of this is the use of 10000 paper tubes to put over pencil stubs. On the tubes is printed Southern Pa cific. Avoid waste. Use your pencil stubs."
 The Southern Pacific uses nearly 4,00O quarts of ink annually, 2,400 quarts of mucilage and a proportion ate quantity of paste. Difficulty ex- perienced in securing these articles both in the local and eastern markets, led the company to begin manufactur- ing experiments at its Sacramento shops. The products thus obtained are said to measure up with the gov ernment test of these articles and a great saving in cost is effected.
 H. G. Cook, general storekeeper has charge of the task of supplying the Southern Pacific's many needs and of accounting for all the supplies on Gazette.

WILL REPORT FAvORABLY

State Land Commissioner w. A. Mouer and Appraisers A. c. Sieboth and Guy Acuff, of Phoenix, have been in St. Johns the past week. During the first half of the week they made a thorough inspection of all the land un- der the Lyman dam which is being of fered as security for the state loan of $150,000, and since completing their inspection they have been very busy making up their report, which, they say, will be of favorable character and will bring to close the negotia- tions for the state loan. Mir. Mouer is very favorably impressed with the prospects this community has for be- coming a "garden-spot" when water is made available for irrigating and he is apparently doing his best to bring about this happy state of af- fairs.--St. Johns Observer.

AUSTRALIANS WHEAT.

More and more it is becoming borne in upon the United States that ship ping, and still more shipping, is go- ing to be the greatest factor in win ming the world war--a factor even more important than more men and more munitions.
 There is little use in our getting to- gether, arming and equipping vast armies and vast stores of supplies if we cannot transport them to where they will do us and our allies the most good and our enemy the kaiser, the most harm.
 While figures can be compiled to show that the net decrease of allied and neutral shipping has not been great, the cold fact remains that, if all the shipping that we had and the neutrals had four years ago was still in existence, we should still be short.
 One of the curious anomalies pro- duced by this shortage is that we are saving every possible ounce of wheat, while Australia has surplus of more than 150,000,000 bushels, much of which is spelling in her warehouses and on her wharves. It is proposed that we take this wheat, thus realiz- ing a corresponding quantity for ship ment to Europe. If only the ships can be found to bring it to our Pacific coast ports, and perhaps the Japanese can do this, the main food problem will be in fair way to satisfactory solution.-Ex.

PLAIN STATEMENT OF
 FACT AS TO RANCE
YAVAPAI HAS HUGE
 FARM MOVING AHEAD

What will probably be the biggest individual farm undertaking in cen- tral Arizona, is now under action near Simmons by the Williamson Val ley Land and Livestock company, of which J. l. Roberts is the head.
 His manager, Henry Hartin, was a visitor yesterday and stated that two big tractors and two teams had start ed to blowing the 1,000-acre tract set apart for crop growing, and to date 300 acres were ready for seeding. Corn, beans, potatoes, milo maize, sorghum and other foods for man and beast are to be grown, and indications point to successful season, owing to soil conditions being the best ever known. There is to be no irrigating, as the land is fed by subterranean sources and bumper crops are prac- tically assured. In addition to this large farm movement, the company maintains breeding farm for white faced Herefords, which is situated on an. adjoining division.-Prescott Jour nal Miner.

BARN BURNED.

Supervisor John c. Halls big new barn at Eager, containing twenty tons of good hay and two calves, was de- stroyed by fire Wednesday about noon. MT. and Mrs. Hall were in St. Johns, having come down to attend the courthouse celebration. They left the children at home, and two little mischief ef-makers under five years old got hold of some matches and set the fire. The children themselves narrowly escaped death in the flames. No in- surance was carried on the property and it is total loss.-St. Johns Ob- server.

Vermont is going to prohibit the shipping of maple sugar out of the state, with view of using the 1918 output of concentrated maple sap for sweetening coffee and making preser- yes. Just for that Uncle Sam might cut off the supply of coffee for Ver- mont, so that they would have no cof- fee in Vermont to sweeten. The next thing we hear the Inhabitants of Salt river valley will decide to retain all the salt of that section in order to salt down the 1918 pig crop for dry salt pork.-Ex.

It is practically decided that the long talked of dam on the upper Yer de shall be built by the Salt River Water Users association. The tre- mendous success scored by the cot ton industry in the Maricopa county valley has made it necessary that ev- cry possible foot of water be impound- ed and it is estimated that the flood waters of the Verde, which hitherto have gone toswaste, will reclaim some 10000 additional acres of desert.

Breads used in the observance of religious rites are exempted by the federal food administration from the regulations requiring the use of wheat flour substitutes in the manufacture of bread and rolls. This will remove any uneasiness that may have existed regarding the use of bread or wafers at the communion services of certain denominations and the use of matzoth by orthodox Jews in their observance of the Passover.-Ex.
