United States Department of Ag-

tivation of a hardy, winter-bear-

which the department has i'm
ported from Guatemala. His WIS.,
it proved very successful in it's
object, and a dozen or more of
our fruit growers have agreed to
make experimental cultivation of
this Guatemalan avocado, plants
of which will be sent them from
Washington.
Amongst those Punta Gorda
people who had the pleasure of
meeting Mr.. Popenoe and who
agreed to accept for experimental
cultivation from two to six each

We fully believe that their ex-
periments will prove so successful
as to result in the establishment
here of a new, large and profitable
branch Of horticulture.
In compliance with The Her
AIDS request, Mr.. Popenoe has
written the following statement of
his impressions regarding the a
daptability of this locality to the
cultivation of this Guatemalan
fruit and its commercial posi-
bilities;
"After visiting many points in
the vicinity of Punta Gorda, am
impressed with the possibilities of
commercial avocado culture in
this region. The Department of
Agriculture wishes particularly to
emphasize the Importance of
planting the harder Guatemalan
varieties of this fruit, as opposed
to the Trapp and other West
India or tender varieties, which
have usually been planted in the
past.
"While the cultivation Of the
Guatemalan avocadoes in Florida
is as yet in the experimental
stage, the experience of the past
few years indicates that they will
in all probability succeed here.
Their requirements seem to be "a
bout the same as those of the COM
mon Seeding avocadoes now
found in Punta Gorda, and they |
possess the decided advantage of |
withstanding about FIVE degrees
more frost, and, in addition the
Guatemalans are all winter-bear-
ing, their season being from No
to April. This last point is
of great Importance to the CON-
mercial avocado grower, isasmuch
IS it enables him to market his en-
tire crop during the season of
highest prices. Heretofore this
has never been possible in Florida.
"The Department urges all who
are interested in avocado grow
ng to make small experimental
of the Guatemalan
sorts. ssTo this end, I have ar
'anged to place with people in
ounta Gorda and vicinity con-
siderable number of trees grown

RODEO AT PHOENIX THIS
 FALL TO BE BIG EVENT

PHOENIX, Aug. 5.-There is going to be plenty of pep, dash and thrills for the rough riding events at the state fair this year, according to an outline of the program which Jack Barber, superintendent of cowboy sports has submitted to the fair com mission, and which has met with hearty approval The details will be worked out at an early date.
 For variety and spice and in point of number and size of prizes the TO- ldeo stunts promise to be on a par with the famous frontier days sports of Prescott Two thousand dollars is the pTincely purse to be hung up for the calf tying contest and another $2,- 900 will go to the winners of the bull roping event Relay races, broncho busting and all the other contests of the range which go to make a high class rodeo will be staged, and with handsome prizes to be offered in all of these it is expected that the most notable outlaws and the cleverest rid CTS from all of the western states will be drawn here and participate ill the exhibitions. The entire inner field of the race course has been turned over to Barber as the stage for its stupen- dous outdoor reproduction of life on the range. A Paige wire fence will enclose the field, thus preventing in terference with the races and allow ing both programs to be carried oD simultaneously if desired.

JUDGE BAKER ADJOURNS
 TO MOUNTAIN HAUNTS

FLAGSTAFF, Aug. 5.-Judge A. F. Baker, member of the supreme court, accompanied by Mrs. Baker, arrived in Flagstaff last Saturday morning to spend their vacation, the supreme court having adjourned business un- til September1.
 Mrs. Baker will spend the greater part of her time on Oak Creek at 'Lolomai Lodge, while Judge Baker left for Cooley, the new sawmill town and will beat up the White River for trout for a couple of weeks.
 While a good many people go to the coast for the summer, prefer to be up here in the mountains where any good Arizonan can have the time of his life" proclaimed Judge Baker
 Speaking of the new lack of guar ters for the supreme court in the hindquarters of the new addition to the capitol building, Judge Baker said: T don't know what is going to be done about it; but, for one thing the supreme court is not going to move until some different arrange ments are made; it is impossible to run up and down three stories after reference books from the law library and the supreme court members dc not propose to do it, and would rather stay in their present quarters. I dc not know who planned the new wing for the supreme court us. but who ever he was, he evidently had been "architecting" on hen GOODS previous ly,and it is the opinion handed down by the court that he is no man damus,' to say the least"

 HOME AT BEDFORD. VIRGINIA


 GLOBE, Aug. 5.-The editor of the Record is ill receipt of a letter from Lawrence Tulloch, who for nearly two years has been a resident of the National Home of the Benevolent Or der of Elks at Bedford, Virginia. Lar ry is kindly remembered by old-timc residents of Globe. He is a charter member of Globe Lodge 4S9, and a past exalted ruler. He says that the national retreat of the Elks ''is indeed a home, a perfect haven of rest to one who has tired of the fleeing show and all that it implies"
 Enclosed in the letter were clippings from Virginia newspapers, telling oi the purchase by the International Ed itorial Association of beautiful place at Bedford, to be the home of the as sociatiOn for retired newspaper men. The structure is commodious and one of the finest at Bedford, situated on seven acres of land. Twenty thou sand dollars is to be expended for improvements to the home.

Waste Bisbee Rock
 Is Used For Ballast

It sounds like carrying coals to Newcastle, yet it is an economical piece of business. Last Sunday a special trainload of 25 cars of waste rock from the top of Sacramento hill was brought over from Bisbee and dumped at the Tombstone end or Walnut Gulch bridge, where it wash ed out last Saturday. The cars be- long to the Copper Queen Mining company. It appears that every two weeks this is done. during the time between shifts when change time comes. It is an economical way for the Fl Paso & Southwestern to get rock ballast and rip rap" on their road bed. It is also recalled that sand is being shipped from a spot right near where the rock was dump ed to Bisbee for use in concrete for paving the Bisbee-Douglas road.

NEW HEADS FOR BOTH
 DISTRICT AND ARMY CAMPS

DOUGLAS, Aug. 5-Col Earl C. Carnahan, ranking colonel in the Ari- zona military district, will arrive in Douglas the latter part of the week, probably Thursday, to assume com mand of the district, following the de- parture on Thursday night of Briga- dier General William R. Smedberg, who will relinquish command with his departure. From Douglas General Smedberg will go to San Francisco for a short visit with his mother be- fore reporting at Fort Leavenworth on August 15 for assignment at the staff college.
 Col. Carnahan is well known in Douglas, having temporarily com manded the district on several oc- casions during interims between the arrival and departure of permanent commanders. His last service in this capacity was few months ago fol lowing the departure of Gen. Hickol1 and pending the arrival of Gen. Smedberg.

INSANE PAIR ESCAPE;
 ARE STILL AT LARGE

PHOENIX, Aug. 1.-Two patients at the state hospital for the insane are at large-Sam Lucas, negro, and Fred die Fernell, Irishman. Lucas thinks that he is Jack Johnson, and came to town with the avowed purpose of making mince meat of two friends of whom he is no longer conspicuously fond.
 Fernell wants to go back to Ireland, and can't think of anything else. He is rational at times, and was released some time ago on his promise to go to Kansas and work in the wheat fields. He got no farther than Pres colt, however, before he was over come by home-sickness, not for Ire land, but for Phoenix. He returned and was placed in the custody of three guards, from whom he escaped.
 Neither Lucas nor Fernell had been located at a late hour last night.

STATE DENTAL BOARD
 IS UP FOR AN AIRING

PHOENIX, Aug. 5.-With the an nouncement by the secretary of the state of the names of fifteen appii- cants for state dental licenses who succeeded in passing the recent ex- aminations, a howl of displeasure has been set up by friends of the Il den lists who were refused the right to practice in this state, and charges of discrimination and unfairness have been pouring in from all sides on Gov evnOr Campbell.
 The fact that IA out of 15 who passed were Arizona boys is the basis of the charge that the dental board is up to it's old tricks of limiting the number of practitioners, thereby cor railing the business by the we'll known trust methods for the few men already in business. And this, de spite the fact that a new board was recently appointed by Governor Camp bell, ostensibly for the purpose of re- moving criticism of irregular meth ods alleged to have been followed in the past.
 Most of the men who passed the recent examinations are said to be fresh from dental colleges, while very many of those who were turned down are men who hold licenses to practice in other states, and have been practicing for as long as 20 years. Elf. | forts are now being made to have these applicants given temporary li censes to practice until given an op- portunity to take the next eXamina tiOn, or to have the examination pa pers reviewed to determine if they Ewere properly graded.

ENGINEER MADDOCK PLANS
 MANY PERMANENT ROADS

FLAGSTAFF, Aug. 5.-Thomas MaddOck, state engineer, was in Flag staff from Phoenix last Monday, leav- ing Tuesday morning for Navajo and Apache counties on a road inspection trip with Division Engineer Ed. Wolfe. Just what recommendations he will make for federal aid for Coconino county, he did not say. but it is pre- sumed that he will match the S150.- GOO bond issue if it is made by a vote of the people here. It is possible and very probable that S25,OO0 will be added to the Clarkdale-W Williams road appropriation of $25,o00; and S25,000 may be added Co like amount by the county for paved road through Flagstaff connecting up the Old Trails National Highway and the balance mainly used on the east and west road. which is part of the tTanscontinental route.

HARD TO GET RID OF

Springfield Republican.
 2 Bela Kun seems to be as hard to get rid of as Lenine. Once he has been put to death, several times he has fled into exile, repeatedly his government has been overthrown, and only a week or so ago he was elected from his government, first by circumstantial rumor, then by an alleged corroboration. Yet now we hear from Paris that the supreme council decided Saturday to send q communication to the Hungarian peo- pie notifying them that if they eject ed the Bella Kun government and iIl- stituted a government with which the peace conference could deal, the blockade would be lifted and food provided.

RoLsHEvIK CHAOS

The chaos to which Bolshevism has reduced the economic and indus trial condition of Russia is without a parallel in the worlds history. It will compel Russia, when this night mare has passed and the reign or terrorism has ended, to begin recon struction at the very foundation. The saving grace in the situation is that Russia's actual and potential wealth remains undiminished and that this under sane and stable government will afford her hope of speedy and secure rebuilding.

PROVING THE PANAMA CANAL New York World.

New York World
 One of the most effective argu- inents in support of an Isthmian canal when the project was under discussion was that it would double the strength of the United States navy. The race of the battleship Oregon in 1898 from the Pacific Coast to join Sampsop's fleet served to illustrate how much time could be saved in emergency in transferring warships from one ocean to the other by way of waterway across Pan ana or Nicaragua. The past week for the first time a great fleet of bat tleships, under Admiral Rodman, has tested the locks of the canal and been lifted high above sea level in making the passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific. There was little doubt about the outcome, but the fact that the feat has been accomplished with ceIerity carries it's own lesson.

"ESPEE" SHoPMEN AT
 TUCSON CONTINUE WORK

TUCSON, Aug 5.-Shopmen em- ployed in the yards of the Southern Pacific continued at work today and nothing further developed in the local threatened strike situation. The men continue to await the orders of their national officers.
 Saturday night a meeting of tho shopmen was held in Trades Council hall and the situation was discussed in all its phases. However, nothing was given out for publication.
 Despite the fact that 250 shopmen are out in various parts of the cOun- try, it is not believed in union circles here that the Tucson unions will join in the strike until after the strike vote is submitted to the union.
 A call for a strike vote returnable August 24 at midnight is being sent out by the national officers to the 500, 900 men employed in the six shop crafts of the American railroads and 10000 employees of the Canadian rail roads This call probably will be re- ceived in Tucson within the next day or two.
 The crafts ask for a minimum of S5 cents an hour for mechanics, an increase of F cents; a minimum of 50 cents an hour for helpers, an in- crease of 15 cents; and an increase of ten cents an hour for apprentices.
