 The Fain case has occupied the court for three days and is based upon the defendants presentation for approval of four false sub-vouchers for expenses. The first three counts in the indict- ment cover expenses for automobile hire and the fourth for three days sub sistence. The verdict found F'ain guilty of fraud in claiming to have paid two men, Woodling and Roache, for auto mobile hire, when, as a matter of fact, it was. proven that Fain was using his own car and, in substance, had paid the money to himself, in violation of the rules of the interior department. Payments to Ogden and for subsistence were evidently approved by. the jury, as verdict of not guilty was returned upon these two counts.
 Attorney P. H. Hayes will appeal for his client After the reading of the charge by Judge SawtelIe, Attorney Hayes excepted to two features of it, that F'ain had no right to fix compensa- tion for the use of his own machine and limiting the persons to whom pay ] ment for auto hire might be made.

LIEUT.. FICKAS HOME
 AFTER YEAR AND HALF
 WITH ARMY IN FRANCE

Back from some sixteen months ser vice with the American army in France, Lieutenant Mel F'ickas returned to his home in Phoenix yesterday to resume his private and business life.
 Lieutenant Fickas entered the army as a field clerk in November. 1917, and was sent to France almost immediately. Some time later he became chief clerk in the personnel bureau at general headquarters of the American EXpedi- tiOnary Forces at Chaumont, France. In September, 191S he was commis- stoned a second lieutenant in the adju- tant generals department and assigned 10 the 30th Division, headquarters brigade
 It was with this division that Lieu tenant Fickas went through most of his work at the front, seeing q good deal of action. In conjunction with the 21th Division and operating with the British forces, the 50th broke the Hlndenburs line at Bellecourt in d series of hot smashes, in all of which Lieutenant Fickas served with his command.
 After the signing Of the armistice, Lieutenant F1ckas remained overseas Wln ms UlNlSlOn, anu IL HdS not uuIl spring that he sailed for home. He landed at Charleston. s. C., April ,, and was discharged later at Camp Jackson. $. C. He arrived in Phoenix yesterday morning looking better than ever foH his experience.
 Lieutenant Fickas before entering the service here was in the real estate and fire insurance business with offices at 17 North First avenue During his time in service, the business was en- tirely taken over by Mrs. Fickas, who managed it personally and with only women assistants to help her. Mrs Fickas proved so successful a manager and business man that on his return her soldier husband found the business larger than when he had left and go- ing along so well he confessed to his friends that he had come back to take e. position with Mrs. Fickas."
 Both Lieutenant and Mrs. Fickas are well known in Phoenix and the valley and both have 8 large circle of warn friends who were delighted to welcome Lieutenant Fickas home again after hi. military service. Lieutenant Ficka: prior to his departure also participated actively in the activities of the Rotary club and the Knights of Pythias.

COMB SAGE TEA IN
 FADED 0R CRAY HAIR
if Mixed With Sulphur It Darkens so Naturally Nobody
 Can Tell

Grandmother kept her hair beau tifully darkened, glossy and attrac- tive with brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Whenever her hair took on that dull. faded or streaked ap- pearance. this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. By asking at any drug store for stWyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound" you will get a large bottle of this ld-time recipe, improved by the addition of other ingredients, all ready to use, at very little cost. This simple mixture can be de- pended upon to restore natural col or and beauty to the hair.
 A well known downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound now be- cause it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied-it's so easy to use, foo. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through vour hair, taking one strand at q time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after another applica- tion or two, it is restored to it's nat ural color and looks glossy, soft and beautiful.

REALLY OF ENGLISH ORIGIN
Punishment by Tarring and Feather
ing First Instituted by King Rich
ard Many Centuries Ago.

Throughout the English-speaking
world there seems to be a widespread
impression that the punishment of tar
and feathers is something peculiarly
American and that the practice orig
mated with and is confined to mobs in
the wilder or more remote sections of
the United States. But the practice
did not begin in America and is, in
fact, English in origin.
The first known use of tar and
feathers was in the British navy $50
years ago. 1t is on record that in
1889 Richard of the Lion Heart, when
about to start ON the Third crusade,
ordered that such of his sailors IS
were found guilty of theft should be
covered with boiling pitch" and
feathers or down be then strewn upon
them.
This ancient employment of boiling
pitch of course meant death, while
the modern application of pitch heat
ed only enough to run and smear is
not necessarily fatal. The modern
American practice is, therefore, a
more merciful adaptation of an an
cient British substitute for the usual
hanging of thief.

though it should be reduced to five or
even to four if the yield of corn is low.
That is another matter that should be
given thought in advance of turning in
the hogs, in order that enough hogs
may be on hand to eat up all the corn,
yet not SO many that they will exhaust
it too quickly.
One of Economical Systems.
In some instances it is advisable
that a part of the field be set off by a
temporary fence and the hogs not
allowed to cover too much ground at
one time
It requires six hogs about 60 days to
eat the corn grown on an acre of good
ground. It might become necessary to
sell or kill them before the work is
finished. The temporary fence, in such
a case, would leave the corn that the
hogs had not consumed still undam-
aged and it could be gathered in the
usual way. A good enough fence can
be made by setting anchor posts at
the sides Of the field, stretching %
inch woven wire and tying it to the
hills of corn. Brood sows with fall
filters should follow fattening hogs
to gather up what little corn has been
left.
The hogging down Of corn, properly
managed and combined, when feasible,
with hogging down rye and pasturing
clover, results in one of the most eco
nomical and efficient of all farm sys-
TENS, according to the department ex-
perts.
The department does not stop at adj
vocating the harvesting of corn with
hogs. 1t asserts that, under present
conditions, almost any kind of meat
animals can be used to advantage in
harvesting practically any crop. Both
cattle and sheep can be, used in har-
good use of corn with peas or soy
beans between the rows or broadcast
at the last cultivation. The use Of
cattle for harvesting corn succeeds
well If some hogs are turned in later
to clean up what the cattle may have
left on the ground.
Utilize Grass Crops.
Grass crops can be utilized to adj
vantage by pasturing with sheep, and
much less labor is required than when
the crop is cut for hay. Beef steers
consume large amounts of clover or
alfalfa in the field and harvest the
crop rapidly, usually with good profit.
The labor required is almost negligi-
BILE. Dairy cows and young stock are
also very effective in pasturing clover
and alfalfa. Usually some care to pre-
vent bloating is necessary when the
cattle are first turned in.
A field of soy beans may be har-
vested successfully with lambs. 1t not
only affords abundant forage, but is
free from the parasites common to
permanent pastures. The soy-bean
crop is equally desirable for hogs and
may be harvested by them either as
forage or after the beans have ripened.

MIGHT BE 4PUsSYs" COUSIN
Though Civet Cat Makes Its Home in
the Open, and Is Larger Than
aHouse Pet

Ever meet a bassarisk?
No, not a baSiliSk; that is some
thing different. A bassarisk is q
cacCmiStle
But the animal is better known as
the "civet cat"-though why so called
nobody knows, inasmuch as it is not
a civet and not cat.
1t is a strange little creature, re-
lated to the raccoon, with a very long
bushy tail ringed in black and white.
Sometimes it, is called a ring tailed
cat and sometimes "cat SQUIRREL
the latter designation bestowed ON ac-
count of its squirrel-like habit of
climbing trees and nesting in hollow
branches.
Like a cat, it catches rats, mice
and small birds. It is about 16 inches
long, not counting the tail, which meas
ures another 16 inches. In color it
Is brOwnish gray. 1t is a night prowl-
er, like cat, and often makes it's
home in outbuildings and deserted
ranch houses.
The civet cat ranges from Mexico
and Texas to California and as far
north as southern Oregon. Occasion
ally it is kept in captivity, making an
attractive and interesting pet.
