JUAREz IS AN ADOBE CITY
Mexican Town Displays General Un.

Most Americans have gotten their

phrase is permissible, than in almost

English Women Baking Own Bread.
In an article called voluntary Ra-
tioning" in WOman's Home Compan-
ion, writer says:
Bakers are forbidden to deliver
bread before it Is twelve hours old.
This, in itself, has helped the saving
Of wheat very materially, as people
do not fancy stale bread. And the
housewife, in her own home baking,
has learned this valuable lesson also.
She puts her freshly baked bread
away to stale for II or "a hours. For
many years English bakers bread has
been so good and so cheap that it
has formed a large part of the daily
menu. But government regulation
bakers bread Is, for the most part,
so unpalatable that women have be-
come home bakers. They mix the
standard flour with other meals and
produce a bread which Is far more
palatable. at less expense, and still
comes within the ratiOns. The supply
Of flour being so limited, pastries and
cakes have become rarities in stores
and restaurants, and luxuries in
homes"

Lutte Out Of Existence.

The lutte has vanished. It was one
Of the oldest of instruments, and had
beautiful vibrant tone somewhat like
that Of the harp. But it's size and
cOmplexity were against 1t. 1t had a
long tail and many strings, and while
its size increased its power and range.
it also increased its weight and made
it cumbrOus. The minstrel of today
plays on the mandolin, the guitar or
the banjO-and the lutte Is forgot.

Domestic Wood for Walking sticks

domestic Wood for walking sticks.
The United Kingdom has long taken
the lead In the manufacture Of walk
ing sticks, and a large proportion Of
the output was made of raw material
grown in the British isles, such as
ash, chestnut, oak and similar woods.
The importation Of finished sticks has
always been small, but before the war
a considerable amount of raw or
partly finished material was imported,
such, as malacca canes, ebony, wang
hees, roof bamboo, nilgherri, etc.
Cherry sticks and what is known as
Congo" wood were formerly imported
from Germany and Austria, where
they are grown. For a time after the
outbreak of the war the stocks on
hand, both here and in neutral coun-
tries, met the demand, but gradually
the trade has become more depend
ent upon homegrown goods, and con-
seQuently greatly increased demand
for domestic raw material has arisen.

T WAS strange irony of fate
that forced revOlutiOnists, hard
pressed by the soldiers of Ker-
ensky, to fall back into the Krem-
lin Of Moscow, for centuries the seat
Of despOtism of Russia. And addition
al interest was attached to this his
tOric spot by the later announcement
that here Kerensky intended to estab-
llsh his. government. Perhaps no city
Of the nation has figured so prominent
1y In the turmoil which for centuries
has accompanied Russian politics as
has this "city within a CITY,"
1t was on the cite of the KremlIn,
now the center of the city, that Mos
cow was founded by Yuri DOlgOruki,
prince Of Kiev, in 1147. The historians
believe a village existed on the heights
above the River Moska even before
the advent Of Prince Yuri. Within a
century, says the Kansas City Star,
the new village entered into the tur-
mOil of Slavic wars then raging. In
1898 the Kremlin, then an important
military station of the prlncipality Of
Vladimir. was sacked and burned by
BatOu-Khan. In 1893 it was again
sacked and its inhabitants were carried
away into slavery by Khan Nagai.
Since then 1t repeatedly has been plum
dered and burned.
The Kremlin is almost triangular in
shape. and is surrounded by high
earthen wall, mile and half long,
which has stood for centuries. 1t Is
one of the five divisions of the city
which still retain their palisades. The
Kremlin's. wall is surmounted by 1S
) towers and pierced by five gates.
In the Kremlin are grouped some of
the most beautiful buildings of Russia.
Within its walls may be read the archi-
tectural history of the nation, but per-
haps the most interesting Of the sights
of the acrOpOlis is the tower of Ivan
the Great. 322 feet high and crowned
by gilt dome.

 VALLEY |RR|GAT|ON. IS ID QUIT OFFICE MAY 5

John P. Orme. president of the Salf River Valley Water Users association. after serving in that capacity for four two-year terms, will retire from office one week from today.
 Previous to being elected president of the association. Mir. Orrne was 8 member of the board of governors from the time the association was organized. He was a member of the committee of 26 that met together and worked out details of organiza- ton and brought about the entrance of the United States reclamation ser- vice into the valley.
 The association was organized in 1903 and incorporated. Mir. Orme has been in continuous service with the association for 15 years. Before fhe association was organized. he was one of the founders and builders of the Maricopa canal. He is one of the pioneers of the valley, having lived here for over 30 years. and has been connected. either directly or indirectly, with irrigation affairs all of that time.
 He will be succeeded as president by Francis M. Wilkinson. who takes office May 6. MT. Wilkinson has been connected with irrigation affairs since coming to the valley ten years ago. Among the questions that will be taken up by MT. Wilkinson will be that of drainage. He announced some time ago that he would initiate a thorough investigation of drainage by experts and recommend that the as sociation take action for the benefit of the whole organization.
 Another matter will be the proposed building of the Verde reservoir. 1t has been voted favorably upon and the preliminary investigation made. It now remains to obtain permission to go ahead from the secretary of the interior. But it is a question, say those informed. whether this job or any other construction work will be undertaken until after the war,
