Cowboy Exemptions

The Arizona Cattle Growers
Association took up the matter al
Phoenix last week of having cow
boys exempted. and will no doubt
succeed.
1t is a we'll known fact that
green hands" cannot handle cat
tie on our western ranges, and as
the first draft took all our Younger
cow punchers we are obliged to
ask that some of the older ones be
left to handle the cattle. Without
them there will be no chance to get
our cattle gathered from the great
ranges and sent to pastures and
feed lots.
Naturally thaa would cut short
our beef supply, a thing that the
government does not want. AS
soon as the proper authorities un-
derstand the urgency of tie case,
action will no doubt be taken. -
Arizona Cattleman.

Sending Money Home

American soldiers in France sent
home $467 Jas IA in the week end
ing September 10Th according to
reports just communicated to head
quarters of the United War Work
Campaign. The rernittances were
made through such agencies as the
Y. M. c. A., the Knights of
Columbus and the Jewish Welfare
Board, and that, without cost to
the men. This saving is at a rate
of more than So, 100000 a month.
This service rendered free to the
men abroad is only one Of the in
Vulnerable services furnished not
only there but also at home by the
"" the K. of c., Jewish Welfare
Board, Y. w. c. A., War Camp
Community Service, American Ii
brary Association and Salvation
Army, all of which are in the
United War Work organization.

Drop Cigarets AS Sol
diers Advance

Showers of cigarettes fell from
the skies on the American fighters
driving the Germans out of St.
Mihiel salient. This fact was
announced in cablegram received
| by William J. Mulligan, chairman
of the Knights Of Columbus Com
mittee on War Activities, at Ma
t onal United War Work Campaign
headquarters. From American air.
planes 20, 900 packages of cigarettes
were dropped into the hands of in
fantr ymen and artillarymen press
ing forward in their victorious
squeeze which dislodged the enemy
from the stronghold they had held
for more than three years. Each
package was stamped Compliment
, of the Knights of Columbus.
At the same time cable dispatches
announced, Y. M. c, A, workers
on foot moved along the soldiers,
handing out chocolates aud cigar
cites, On land and in the air these
fearless workers kept pace with the
American fighters moving forward
in the first offensive exclusively
executed by our troops.
The airplane service for distri-
buting cigarettes to the soldiers,
while the battle was in progress and
the ordinary foot or motor methods
of reaching the men in the front
lines were unavailable, was estab-
lished by Martin V. Merle, of San
Francisco, K. of G.. Secretary,
with the cooperation of an Ameri-
can airplane unit. After the fight
soldiers related how pleasantly sur
prised they had been when cigar
cites dropped from on high, They
declared no service in their behalf
ever had pleased them so much as
his ultra-modern delivery of
smokes"

Arizona's New Hospital

Adequate hospital facilities for
the states civilian population are
nearly SO per cent short. If Uncle
Sam should ask for room for sol
diers during the reconstruction
period, the youngest state of the
Republic could make a very poor
response.
Many of our citizns seek aid in
hospitals, outside of the state, be-
cause they cannot be accommodate
ed at home. Tuberculosis is in
creasing in the United States and
the INDECENT sick suffer for lack of
care, For these and many other
reasons. the public is considering
the erection of the New Deaconess
Hospital at Phoenix war measure.
E. S. Gaddis, financial agent for
this enterprise, made his second
visit to Benson and vicinity, this
week. BY the first of January,
through the expenditure of 500, 900
splendid progress will have been
made. Completion of the first unit
will cost 500, 900. DR.. w. 0.
Sweek, recently state superlntend-
ent of public health, says; I most
heartily indorse the erection of the
Arizona Deaconess Hospital

The State Fair

Phoenix Oct. 18.-Poultry and
poultry products are to have an i'm
portant place at the Arizona State
Fair which will be held in Phoenix
November II to 16. An entire
building is to be given over to an
exhibit which promises to be the
largest ever shown in this state and
probably in the entire west.
Awards made at this exhibit are
to be highly valued because of the
keen competition. No matter what
strain of poultry, the exhibitor may
have to show, the award will have
been won only after the keenest
competition. Poultry breeders from
all over Arizona are showing de-
sire to have a part in the coming
exhibit.
The government has sent out all
instant and more than urgent re-
quest that the people of this country
keep more hens. Laws have been
made limiting the killing of laying
biddies. As a result this exhibit
is to have a peculiar interest i'll
that it will offer the best and latest
methods for showing fanciers, an d
even experienced handlers of poul-
try the latest and best methods for
bringing to early maturity the best
of stock.
Lessons learned in the hard
school of experience will be given
the farmers and poultry breeders at
first hand. Because of this exhibit
the farmer is to have an opport'1n-
ity next month to go to school to
those who have made life study
of the best methods OF reariug
stock.

Fresh Water All Around"

MANY thousands of pounds of
Arizona fruit and vegetables, which.
would otherwise have been wasted
have been canned and put up dur
ing the past year through the teach
ing and demonstration of the Agri-
cultural Extension Service Of the
University.
A few months ago a Cochise
housewife wrote to the Extension
Service asking where she could
procure fruit for canning nearer
than Southern California. She
was promptly informed of the many
fine orchards in her own county,
and the suggestion was made that
she take her canning equipment III
to some of these orchards and do
the canning right on the ground.
This advice was followed. and the
report now comes in that this lady
has not only canred large quantities
of fruit, using the cold-pack method
but that she secured as many as
fifty different varieties of fruit and
vegetables in Cochise county and
hopes to get still more. A saving
of transportation, so important just
now, has thus been effected, as we'll
as saving of time and money.
This case reminds US of the old
story of the shipwrecked sailors,
perishing with thirst, unaware of
the fact that they had drifted into
a freshwater channel, who were
told, on calling to a passing ship
for help, Let down your buckets.
Theses fresh water all around. y

Potatoes
Boil them.

Drop ,npeeled potatoes into boil

twenty to thirty minutes. Drain off
the water at once.
Be sure to leave the skins on-if
you peel them you waste time and
potatoes.
Don't cook them too 1ong-over-
cooking makes them go to pieces.
Don't let them stand in the wa
ter after cooking this makes them
soggy.
Write the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture for new potato
recipes.

Salvage means more than gather

essence. Right now the Govern
ment needs tin and platinum. In

also needs nut shells, fruits pits and
seed to make carbon for gas masks.

fuse may save a soldiers life.

Feathers (recently picked) bring

helps, so every time you havs

A PROPER QUESTION

In writing for the American Maya
zine, sid" raises the question, IF
you are not fighting, are you worth
fighting for?" Along this line he
remarks:
Never in your life has ii been so
important as it is now that you as
an individual, should pull your own
life up to the highest standards that
you can maintain. These are nerve
racking days Civilization seems to
be shaking all around us. If we lose
faith in ourselves and in the race.
we are indeed lost.
Every time we see man doing
his individual job up to the top
notch of efficiency, we can have just
that much more confidence in the
worth whileness of this big struggle
Every time we see man surrender
to the forces that wreck an individ-
ual we suffer loss of just that much
confidence. All the fighting isn't go
ing on in Europe. Some of il is 60
ing on here.
$50 open your eyes to the truth
and realize that right now in these
early days of 1918 your acts are of
more Importance than they ever
were before.
THE war is like great fire. The
soldiers are the firemen, and the
safety of the rest of us is in their
hands. After risking their lives for
us, what are these soldier-firemen
going to find that they have saved
valuables or junk? Think about this
when you look in the mirror"
