HAS ERNEST LOVE ESCAPED BEING
 KILLED?
DUDLEY DAY RITE FROM FRANCE THAT IT SEEMS HIS BROTHER AVIATOR OF PRESCOTT WAS MADE PRISONER.
(Froni Sundays Daily)

Dudley Day, of Prescott. with the Royal Aerial Corps over in France, writes to friends in Prescott, under date of November IS, that it is gen. orally believed in flying circles that Ernest Love, son of MT. and Mrs. Allan Love, of this city, has escaped being killed, and is a prisoner in Ger many. Mir. Day has been taking a particular interest in ascertaining what fate has overtaken his brother aviators, and has in the case of Mir. Love. made special investigations without getting any trace of his whereabouts, owing to Love being from the same city, and with whom he is well acquainted. Mir Day also states that it was impossible when he wrote to get cablcgram home, eX- ccpt in case of death, as this source of communication is congested with official business, barring private messages unless they are urgent.
 Strong hopes seem to prevail that Love was with the 47 aviators sur rendered by the Germans last week on the Swiss border, the identity of not single one of them as yet being disclosed.

CONS. ARIZONA IS GAINING IN ITS
 EARNINGS
BIG PLANT AT HUMBOLDT IS MAINTAINING AN AV- BRACE MONTHLY COPPER PRODUCTION OF ONE MILLION POUNDS.

Consolidated Arizona copper pro- duction is averaging around 100000 pounds month, or 100000 pounds per annum. Under the prevailing price for copper this output has a net value of Sl,545, 900, equivalent to about % cents a share on the ,663,- 0OO shares of s par outstanding, be- fore tax deductions. This compares with net profits of SSSl,S last year and SS59,0l4 in 1916 and is more than four times dividend requirements of , cents share, or 20 cents per an- mum.
 The dividend income yield is bet ter than 10 per cent at the prevail ing price of the stock around Sl.SlH. In 1917 the stock sold to high of S2.&1i. With the quarterly distribu- tion on September Is to stock of rec ord August 3l, 1918, disbursements to stockholders were brought up to Is cents share, making the total to date 25 cents a share.

FORGERY FIENDS
 FINALLY RUN THEIR RACE
(From Sundays Dailv)

During the past week in Los Ange- les the manipulations of a trio of forgers reached the climax, when one turned against the other, and all three now face a penitentiary sen- tcncc, among them being Carl Du- Ney. who already has landed at San Quentin. This criminal action IS ot local interest, as the press account states that DuVey "squealed" on his two companions, in order to avoid prosecution in Arizona on serious charge of forgery His financial mates were C. P. Flood and K. A. Benkert. the former having been convicted last Tuesday, and is en route to join DuNcy. Now Benkert has turned states evidence, and the three easy money artists who raked down S9,376.55 from the cashier of Long Beach bank, will probably mingle together for long time in the future.
 It is stated that DuVey was in Prescott and other sections of Arl- zoma operating" in a bogus manner on mining, in which he secured a heavy sum for payment to a mine owner, but which never got any fur ther than his pockets. Forged checks flew thick and fast and many unsophisticated bankers fell graceful ly into the trap that was nicely bait ed. The deals of this trio by the forgery route run into big sum.

 GREAT DIVIDE
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

Judge James R. Russell of King man, well-known in Prescott and other parts of Yavapai county, died at his home the latter part of last week from the effects of a long siege of disease which was compli- cated by paralysis.
 Mir Russell, who acquired his title of judge" by reason of his hay ing been elected justice of the peace It Kingman in the old days, was a prominent Elk and during the past few years had attended many Of the lodges gatherings in this city. He was born in Baltimore, Md, 6S years ago. When a young fellow he entered a Pennsylvania school and shortly thereafter the civil war broke out and he entered the Union army, serving until the close Of that strug- gle. After leaving the army he came west and has been identified with many of the old mining camps of Idaho and Nevada, coming to Mo- have county from Hawthorne in 1882.
 At first he lived in Blackberry, but after the closing down of the mines there made his home in Kingman. Here he was welded to Miss Cath crine Kinney, who survives him.

POULTRY EXHIBIT T0BEHELDHERE
 IN JANUARY
BIG CHICKEN SHOW, WITH EXHIBITS FROM ALL PARTS OF THE STATE, IS PLANNED BY HEAD OF N. A. F. DEPARTMENTS.
(From Sundays Daily)

Believing that it is the patriotic duty fall interested in tine subject of poultry to cooperate in the educa- tional campaign for the increased production of poultry and eggs, through channels of efficiency, r. ]. Cornwell, chairman of the poultry department of the Northern Arizona Fair, is planning to have one of the largest poultry shows in the South west held in Prescott during the month of January. The only feature holding this back will be whether health conditions will permit of the lifting of the flu ban in time to do the necessary advertising This is the outcome of the work done by the poultry department of the fair as sociation. This show, if held, will have entries from all sections of the State and will be the official Ameri- can Poultry Association show of the State of Arizona.
 Men experienced in this line have yearly complimented the manage ment of the Northern Arizona Fair upon the poultry display, stating that ii compares favorably with the larg est shows of the country. Had the 1918 Northern Arizona Fair been held, there would have been over POO birds in the display from the Salt River Valley alone Here it is only fair to state that the Arizona State Far received its first incentive for big poultry display, when the secre- tary visited the 1917 fair. It is the belief of Mir. Cornwell and others in q position to know that such a show held during the month of January would do much 10 improve the poultry throughout the northern part of the State, as well as the birds which would come from the south.
 In connection with the poultry show, Mir. Cornwell will have the ac- tive support of William Brown, plaza gardner, who has recently been ap pointed the local representative of Norman L. Harris, L. s. Poultry . specialist, working in cooperation with the Arizona Agricultural Col lege at Tucson.
 With peace, it is all the more neces- sary to increase the production of poultry and eggs, as the United States will need to supply the foreign countries with sixty per cent of their food until the period of reconstruc- ton advances to the point of produc- ton. which will take many months Of progress and years before normal supply may be obtained abroad. Food Administrator Hoover announces that we should produce for export this year 20,0OO,OO0 tons of food in comparison with 6,O00,000 tons under normal conditions and the export last year of ll,500OOO tons. Poultry and eggs should greatly aid this supply and it is the belief of both these men that the show if held will prove of real benefit to the poultry breeders in Arizona

yAVAPA| COUNTY ASKED ID HELP
 FEED EUROPE
LOCAL ORGANIZATION IS EFFECTED TO AID IN NATIONS PROBLEM OF SUPPLYING FOOD TO STRICKEN NATIONS.
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

Acting with County Food Ad- ministrator H. D. Aitken, Secretary Grace NJ. Sparkes has been placed in charge of the World Relief Week ac- tivities in Yavapai County, while the announcement has been made that in all probability the date set for this work would be Dec. l5-21, it is more than likely that Yavapai coun- ty will observe this week early in January. The plans for this work will be announced as quickly as ad- vice has been received from head quarters in Phoenix, with respect to the date mentioned.
 The sternest task yet set for the American people, in the opinion of Washington authorities, is the ship ment of 2O,00OOO0 tons of foodstuff to the Allies and the smaller na- tions which have been released from he yoke of German kulture. So many million tons of food does not mean much to the average citizen, il is admitted. Translated into perfor- nance, 1t is a tremendous undertak- ing. America shipped to Europe ir the last year close. to 100000 tons of food. Now from stocks not materially larger we are pledged to send half as much again.
 These arc the facts which couser- vation workers will strive to drive home in the coming campaign. With he opening of the churches in Yava- pal county, special message from Herbert C. Hoover to the American people will be read. It means scien- fife saving in each household, that 1t may be done without imparing the health or strength of the people and all from the stock of food now on hand. This message will be read n the theaters and all fraternal and patriotic organizations.
 During World Relief week a special day will be set aside IS Women's organization day. Spec al programs have been outlined and hose will be carried out in all wo- mems clubs. These plans have the active endorsement of the federation of womcn's clubs and club leaders throughout the State.
 X special program will be carried out on a certain day in all schools and colleges. This program has been placed in the hands of every school teacher through the National Service bulletin issued by the Committee on public information. One of the feat Ires of the program will be the read ,ng of message from Mir. Hoover O the boys and girls of America Arizona educators are lending their upport to the movement
 It is probable that special gather ;ngs will be held throughout the county in which local speakers will cmphasize the need of the hour for general conservation to take the place of special conservation, as of ;ugar and wheat, in effect while the var was in progress.
 As soon as the date is set upon at least approximately, for Yayapai county, Mir Aitken and Miss Sparkes will select their committeeman throughout the county and this ini- portant matter placed before the citi- zens of Yavapai in the best possible manner
