WHOLESALE MEAT CO:
 TELLS NHY II JAN I UT PRICES FURTHER

Representatives of the Phoenix Wholesale Meat company last night, commenting on the report of the food administration of it's efforts to secure a reduction of the prices of meats in this market. felt that their side of the affair should be made known. John T. Hughes of the Hughes Market, the president of the wholesale company, said that some time ago representa- tive of the food administration called on them and suggested a, voluntary re- duction of five cents a pound in the price of meat.
 He was told that the company had lately made a reduction of from two to three cents on wholesale prices and from two and a half to five cents on the retail prices. The company said that. in view of the price of cattle and the sloughing off of values of by pro- ducts, they could not then consider another five-cent reduction or any re- duction approaching that. For in stance, the price of tallow. formerly 20 cents a pound, had dropped until now in carload lots it was only Il cents on a slow market. There had likewise been a drop in the price of 1 hides. especially western hides, which are always regarded as inferior on ac- count of the smaller size of the cattle and on account of the brand
 Concerning the statement in the re- port that prices had been reduced by some of the shops in Phoenix, MT l Hughes said that that might be true as to what are called the ''cold weather or frost shops. which operate only in the winter time and are not at tho | great expense of the shops of tho i Wholesale.

.WORTH|T ALI, WRITES PHOENIX bOY, ID SEE JOY IF FRENCH FOLk

The following letter from Edward NJ. Fitch, Somewhere in Paris to his mother, Mrs. E. l.. Fitch, PA East Fay Tor street. describes the joy of the peo- pie of France when the news of the signing of the armistice was received. Edward Fitch. who formerly was a bookkeeper at the local Armour branch, went to Mare Island and enlisted in the marine corps. He then was sent to Galveston and Tampico and from there to France. The letter in part is as follows:
 Somewhere in France, Nov. 13. 1918
 Dear Mother:
 How is my little mother today? As for myself l am feeling fine and up and walking around quite a bit Believe me ! I am sure glad I'm able to walk at all You can't imagine how much happiness was brought to me today when I re- ceived a stack of letters from home, the first I've received since arriving in France. It was real funny to n'a to read your wish for me to get my share of the Huns. l had already done my bit and 1 had been wounded and in the 1 hospital since the Sth of October and all fighting had stopped before your l letter reached me, but you may rest as sured I had gotten my share of the Huns before 1 was hit. 1 know you have heard of Germanys surrender, but you should have been here in Paris. The joy which these people expressed after four years of this terrible war cannot be half imagined by the people of America. Even Us fellows here in Paris. The i- which these people cx- pressed after four years of this terrible i war cannot be half imagined by the people of America. Even us fellows here in the hospitals were thrilled by the joy and spontaneous outbursts of l laughing. crying. and shouting. When II o'clock came the day before yester day, the guns all over the city com menced firing and the bells rang and the whistles blew. all this informing ling With the shouts of the people, told | a great deal more forcibly than mere words what a strain they had been under for the past four years. Just to have been. here when this came is well worth the hardships I have gone through yes, even the wound, and to think before long I will sbe able to re- turn home. Home,' How little those who stayed in-the L. S., can appreciate that word. How little I have appre- ciated it in the past. Us fellows ovel
 here really know what that word means with all the hardships in a for eign country, no letters, not counting
 the days of pouring rain and nights o
 long hikes through thick mud, ofteT
 times going thirsty and hungry. Be

EARLY PROHIBITION IN ENGLAND
G.nndnn Chronicle.l

Prohibition under stress of necessity does not first make it's appearance in America. England before now has sub mitted to it. In the years of murrain and famine during the reign of Edward H., when the poor stole 'fatte dogges to eat?" when thieves that were in prison did pluck in pieces those that were newly brought amongst them, and greedily devoured them half alive" then we had prohibition. The king for bade all malting of corn for ale making, and S. we are told, greatly relieved the. national distress.

FAIR OFFICE
Not UNLIKE
CIRCUS CAR
Thousands of Posters and
Bills Being Sent Out
Through State

The Office of Sec. F. w. McRob-
erts resembles very much the ad-
vertising car Of one Of the big cir
cuses these days of preparation for
the big state fair, July Is to 20
Thousands Of posters, ranging IN
size from the little half sheet win"
dow cards to the big A-sheet posters
are being catalogued, made into pack
ages and shipped out to the differ
ent cities over the state for distrl"
button and display. The very attrac-
tive posters gotten out by the state
fair management this year are GER
tainly worthy OF inspection, as they
are the product Of we'll known ar
lists and the subjects chosen are
the very finest type Of poster display
advertising.
The posters covering the general
features of the fairs educational
work are exclusive designs for the
use of the North Dakota state fair.
In addition to these designs are a
number Of other attractive posters
advertising the big c. A, Workman
Carnival company with the monkey,
speedway, autodrome, merry go
round, whip, animal show and all the
big features Of this justly celebrated
carnival company. One OF the big
features which will attract the at
tention and interest of all from the
youngest to the oldest is that call
ing attention to the War OF Ma
tions." which is the big feature every
night for five nights, beginning Mon
day, July Is. The distribution Of
this immense amount Of advertising
matter requires a great deal Of time,
and the services Of experts along
those lines and is only one Of the
many big problems to be worked out
in connection with the successful
presentation Of big feature fair.
The class Of attractions and the
excellent quality of all kinds of ex-
hibits already entered insures the
most successful and we'll balanced
state fair ever held in North Dakota
and the management Is to be con-
graduated upon the excellent man
ner in which 1t is completing ar
rangements for the successful stag
ing Of this big enterprise. Special
emphasis Is being paid this year to
the educational features and all such
will be given prominence at the fair
and it is the duty Of everybody who
can possibly get away to take in this
big state fair and inform themselves
as to the many new methods which
are being advocated and shown for
the improvement Of conditions on the
farm and in the home.

Fighting to Watch the
Crazed Indian
(By e. H. TosTEvIN)

AT a Base Hospital in France.
May 20. 191s.-An American Indian,
a full blooded Sioux of the Standing
Rock reservation in North Dakota,

Is the story as told me by another
North Dakota chap who also was
transferred.
you ought to have seen that In
dian, the first time the Boche made
a raid on our trenches" he said.
HE leaped over the parapet,
swinging his old rifle around his
head. He let out a yell that might
! have been saved up for years, and 1t
was a genuine war-Whoop by one
! OF the people who made war whoop-
ing famous.

fore we mixed. Rogers Of course

OF times he brought 1t down to his
shoulders and emptied his shells at
the enemy, swung 1t again, yelled
and jabbed, used the butt Of his gun
Ito smash the skull Of another. I had
my hands full all Of this time. but
the crazed Indians actions were so
fast we all half watched him, Ger
mans and we fellows alike. It was
only a small fracas anyway. The
twenty or more Germans who were
left beat it for their lives. Rogers
never got a. scratch. 1t was In fact
pretty much a one man scrap, almost
an exhibition. never saw O. man
move so fast in my life and I guess
the Germans hadn't either"
|, Rogers is now being utilized as a
sniper. Heapparently bears a charm
ed life. An expert shot, he has picked
off opposing Shippers and had a
merry time. He is one Of the Indians
who enlisted at F't. Yates last fall.
Albert Grass. nephew Of the late
Chief Justice John Grass Of the
Sioux tribeIs now in the hospital for
an operation. All Of the Indians are
taking to the war game with vim
and vtgor surprising. Although 1t
has been many years since the Sioux
were a warning tribe and the present
generation has had no training in
that line, still it seems to come nat
uraI for chaps like Rogers to make
good. In more than one instance Of
flcers have selected Indians for
scouting or patrol duty because OF
the natural instinct that fits them
for the work.
You back home know. what splen-
did young men the Indians OF today
are, yet there is no question but that
the striking reversion to type in the
case of young Rogers is a mighty
good thing in this day and age and in
the work over here.
