ulating highways transport of nour-
ishment and supplies so badly needed.
Routes and channels from shipping
points must be opened up and effici-
entity maintained, and our merchant
marine must be built up to meet the
demands for distribution overseas"
With the establishment of the rural
motor express giving regular daily
service over fixed routes, with def
mite schedules of stops and charges,
starting In the country and gathering
farm products and delivering them to
the city, and on the return trip carry
ing merchandise, supplies. etc., for
those along the route, the farmer will
be as advantageously situated in ev-
cry respect as if directly located with
in the city. The cooperation of the
Federal Railroad Administration has
been assured and where formerly
congested terminals and shortage of
equipment caused great delay and
wastage, there will now be put forth
every effort to avoid any such recur-
renee by the rural motor express and
motor short hauls in the cities.
The great need always is for the
early encouragement of enterprises
seeking to pioneer. If the farmers
and merchants will understand and
utilize the service as soon as it be-
comes available they will be the great
gamers from such service.
All those organized at this time and
those contemplating organization
should send in their names and routes

A Call to Service.

The war is over All business, pro
fessions, schools and universities are
changing their programs to meet the
change in national affairs. The church
has no less problem to solve. After six
weeks inactivity, due to the "flu" cpl
denic, we resume our services on next
Sunday. Our program for the fall and
winter campaign will necessarily be
changed and we must at once adjust our
selves to present conditions. Our boys
will soon be returning from war and we
must be prepared to receive them with
the same enthusiasm that we sent them
from us. Are we going to be able to
show to them that we have not been idle
while they have been fighting our battles
for US? May I remind all members and
friends of the First Christian church
that we will expect you to share with us
the services on next Sunday. Let us
strive to make up for the loss we have
experienced during the past six weeks.
The spirit of the days service will be
in harmony with the present state of
affairs.

 Chief SpiiIman for S2.50
 Dr. William J. Spillman, chief of the office of farm management of the de- partment of agriculture, presented to the conference tonight figures compiled by his office designed to show that a price of s2.50 bushel is essential if the maximum production is to be at tained next year.
 Speakers insisted that the president had been misinformed as to the n- crease in the cost of flour that would result from s2.50 wheat They said the added cost on barrel of flour would be 90 cents instead of the estimated. | Senator Gore of Oklahoma, author of the $2.50 amendment to the annual az ricultural appropriation bill told the conference that the estimated $50,000 poo increase in the cost of wheat to tae allies to the s2.50 price could be and should be absorbed by the American government.
 In vetoing the agricultural appropri- ation bill recently because of the Gore amendment the president said the pro- posed increase would cause disruption 1 of economic conditions. not alone in the United States but in the allied coun- tries

Whether or not merchants of Ari- zona shall mark both the cost and sell Ing price on all goods they sell in com. pliance with the order of the State Council of Defense. made August ;3. and which was to have gone into effect yesterday, is in the hands of a con- mittee that last night was laboring to get the matter settled.

 After the issuance of the order. .ner chants associations all over the state protested, holding that the order vas confiscatory, impossible of compliance. and impractical.
 Waste of Time
 The matter came to head today in conference of representatives of the merchants and the Council of Defense. k. D. Carpenter, manager for the retail department of the Albert Steinfeld Co. of Tucson. was spokesman for the mer- chants. He contended that the man power needed to comply with the order would be a waste of time and labor. that great many articles. owing to a loss of style value when carried long in stock. had to be sold at cost or lower, and that the practicability of marking the cost depended entirely upon the stapleness of the articles.

TWENTY GALLONS IF WINE TAKEN
 IN POLICE RAID

A winery. or something that closely resembled winery. was raided last night by Captain Sutherland and Po- liceman Valenzuella and Brown and 20 gallons of wine confiscated, and Chauncey King, owner of the wine arrested.
 The raid was made upon the old Whitney Soap factory on South Sixth avenue, just below the Buckeye rail- road tracks. The wine was well fer mented, but not fortified, indicating that it had been recently made, said Captain Sutherland. The 20 gallons were contained in two five gallon kegs and two five gallon demijohns. l Captain Sutherland said he expected to raid a still and was surprised when he found wine. King in a statement to the police, said he had no intention of selling the wine, but had it for his own personal use. He was placed in ; the city jail

ministration in its efforts to promote the ends of good government.
 We present as our candidate for our representative in congress one whose Americanism is untainted by pacifism, one who has never doubted the righte- ousness of American participation in the war; one who proves his faith by his works. and who is fighting in France impelled wholly by sense or duty and love of country.
 Thomas Maddock is splendidly qual- flied by character, energy and ability to represent our great state in the House of Representative in times of peace. The experience he has gained as one of our gallant and victorious American army especially fits him to render service of a high order at this time both in the state and to the na- tion. We commend him to the pa triotic people of the state in the fullest confidence that his candidacy will meet with their approval and be fol- lowed by his election.

He packed his things and came to town, after hiring man to look af- ter his farm during his absence. After obtaining a boarding house, ho reported at Liberty Loan head quarters that he was ready to de- vote his entire time to working for the success of the Fourth Loan.

1pvck Boards" 70 Beat the Mud.

When the allied forces In Flanders
are not battling with the Germans they
are trying to outwit nature. This is
the substance of a report brought back
from the firing line by Maj. Gen.
Charles Clement, u. s. A.
Mud was a source of considerable
annoyance to the soldiers. So the en-
cheering force Of Australia devised
what has become commonly known as
the "duck board" but which the Cana
dams have named the bath mat" both
being terms OF derision.
The board Is made Of q number of
small strips Of wood. IA to 15jnches
ip length. which are nailed to string
ers placed In front Of one another and
extending for miles. A step on the
"duck board" means a plunge into q
sea Of mud at least three feet In
depth.
The board" was devised TO enable
the Australians to attack the Germans
more successfully, and 1t served to pro-
vide a path to victory.-Popular Sci.
