WILL THE SENATE RATIFY?

A ND now that the terms of the peace treaty
between the allied nations and the central
powers of Europe have been agreed upon and duly
signed by the plenipotentaries comprising the
peace congress- the important question is, "Will
the aw-making powers at home, in those coun-
tries including the United States and Germany,
wherein they have the power of ratification or re-
lection endorse the work of the congress, or will
the deliberations in France have been in vain?
1t is very apparent that the sentiment in the
Senate is somewhat hostile towards many features
of the treaty, and this may may not be super
induced by the Presidents slight of that body in
the selection of his peace delegates which might,
very properly it would seem, have included one or
more Senate members since the ratification of that
body is imperative before the treaty becomes bind
ing. The President is evidently depending upon
strong personal appeal the floor of the Senate
to carry the day, coupled with the fear that men,
bers will have of mourning popular displeasure if
they now throw monkey wrench into the gears"
of the peace machine
The League of Nations to preserve peace is one
of the bones of contention and the whole matter
turns on the specific wording of the draft, as to
whether it is blessing or menace. Members Of
the senate are now studying the wording of the
treaty with view of discovering any hidden joi-
ers, or 'niggers in the woodpile."
French Socialists and Bolshevists are making
peace treaty. With Germany it will be question
of ratification of the treaty as drawn or of con-
tinuing the war

tranquility of older and more sedate people. But
so long as the demonstration is not too wilfu and
reckless, we believe in letting the young people
have their fling" bit in so doing they should, in
the words of the late Bp. VIM. II. Cory be care
full not to injure anyone else, or their property.
7 1t is in the light of this admonition that we
raise our voice in protest against the reckless bonn
bardment that the town received for some three or
four hours the morning of the Fourth of July.
The reckless, indiscrmnate and prodigal use of
giant powder INDUCED in upon the streets and
thoroughfares of the city, under pretext of salut
ing the flag, was not only an Infringement upon
the personal rights of every citizen, but was
most serious menace to life and property. The
fact that windows were shattered and several
sticks of unexploded dynamite were picked up on
the streets where they had been dropped is con-
elusive evidence of contention, and we may
thank our good fortune that killed or
manned as a result of the recklessness.
Many sick and nervous people suffered real
agony while the bombardment lasted, and we trust
that should there be repetition Of the offense the
guilty parties will be dealt with. 1t must be un-
derstood that the prodiga use of giant powder was
by unauthorized persons and not under the direc-
ton of the committee for tht celebration of any
officer designated for the purpose.
Iron County record. [volume] (Cedar City, Utah) 1893-1982, 1919-07-11

One instance of the suffering in
flicted by the careless use of giant
powder and excessive bombardment
on the morning of the Fourth is re-
cited by Charles Heyborne, an aged
and respected citizen, whose wife lay
suffering from a second fracture of
rib, and exceedingly nervous. At
each heavy explosion she would jump
violently and then almost scream out
loud from the pain the involuntary
movement caused her. Boys practic-
ing such pranks as this should re-
member that there are always such
cases as these of sick and nervous
people who are made to suffer for
their coarse amusement

FOR right down hot, sultry, dry and trying
weather the past month has been without prece-
dent in this section within recent years. The COM
plant is universal, and everyone seems to be of
the same mind. Crops in southern Utah are suf-
fering severely from the drought, and the pros
poets are that not more than half crop will be
raised, and this will be confined to only the most
favored fields and districts, where there is primary
water rights. The ranges, too are being scorched
into barren wastes and the outlook for livestock
next winter is very blue unless we have copious
rains and at once.

If people of Parowan would contribute part
and go after the county and state for some assist
ance to put their canyon road in condition for auto
mobile travel, thus opening to the tourists and
pleasure seekers the unparalleled scenery, the de-
lghtful summer camping grounds and good fishing
which the region thus opened would offer, it would
prove the best investment they could possibly
make at the present time. The road is especially
needed now, pending the completion of the NOR
expensive road through the Cedar canyon, and
operated in connection with this last named route
would form a scenic loop unequaed in the west.

THE RECORD fully endores the intent of the
ordinance appearing elsewhere in this issue, by
ire City Council of Cedar City, increasing the pen
atty for vandalism and the unauthorized appro-
priation of the personal property of other people.
Vandalism is entirely too common in this neck-o'-
thewoods, and it is high time that an example was
made Of some of the culprits. Isolated or unpro-
tected property is defaced and destroyed in the
most wful and wanton manner. If few con-
victions are obtained under the new ordinance the
penalty can be made severe enough to make those
guilty of these destructive practices ''st up and
take notice"

ANOTHER prediction of the ancient prophets
seems likely of fulfllment in the not distant fu-
ture at least in the western partitions of the United
States. We refer to the prediction that the land
should be visited with famine and pestilence. We
have had foretaste of the famine this week. when
it was necessary to resort to every means of per-
suasion and entreaty in order to buy flour. From
present appearances, the prediction stands good
chance of being fulfilled before another twelve
months pass.

SAVED FROM SLOW
ELECTROCUT|ON BY
SUBCONSC|OUs ACT

TEMPE, Oct. ia remarkable sub
conscious impulse is probably all that
saved Eddie Curry from being electro
cuted when he stepped into a puddle of
water in the ditch at the corner of Mill
and Eighth streets Saturday night and
came into contact with live Wire
According to young Curry he saw
some wires hanging over the ditch and
in the semi darkness stepped toward
them to investigate. He says that just
as he placed a, foot into the water in
the ditch, he was knocked unconscious
and didn't regain a normal sense of his
surroundings until he was block from
the scene. walking homeward He then
realized he had been severely burned
about the back of the neck.
Curry was alone at the time of the
unusual mishap. He carries a vague
impression of having kicked and
crawled after being struck down by the
electrical current. Just how he man
aged to extricate himself from the
perilous position he held in close con-
tact with the high voltage wires and
the current conducting water, remains
unexplained. Curry doesn't know. The
psychologist might explain it as the
physical response to sub conscious
commands of the brain.
The pertinent fact remains that Cur
ry escaped with burns of a compare
lively minor nature, although he will
probably carry the scars through life

Winners Of FORMER
FL PASO To PHOENIX
ROAD RACES ENTERED

Ell PASO, Texas, Oct. 12.-Echoes of
past road races are being heard as
the two winning cars of the FL Paso
to Phoenix road races of 1913 and 1914,
enter the third road race, which starts
here November 2. Reports that the
Pope Hartford. which won the 1914
event, is being prepared for entry
from Tucson, are followed by the ac-
tual entry of the Simplex which won
the original race in 1918. ]. f. Allison
of FL Paso is entering the old race
veteran, and will drive it himself,
assisted by George Greenberg as his
mechanician.
The old Simplex was driven to vic
tory in 1913 by Jed Newkirk, who
distanced all competing cars over some
roads twice as bad as the present
course will be. Allison believes that
the 1913 winner will be the 1919 win
ner, and is getting the old car into
such shape, that the newer and the
younger cars will have to make real
time to beat him.
Word was received yesterday from
Lordsburg that the business men Of
that place had raised $1,000 to be ex-
pended in repairing the race course
over the road west and south of
Lordsburg. This section was one of
the few pieces of road which needed
repairing, and for which there were no
county or state funds available. Mr..
r. E. Edwards has been placed in
charge of the work, and will have an
ample crew and adequate machinery
to effect the needed repairs. The road
in general requires only the cutting
down of cross ditcnes and the grad
ing down of one or two washes. Near
Rodeo it will be necessary to do some
construction work on account of the
badly torn up roads due to the passage
of an army truck train few weeks
ago.
A letter received from the Santa
Cruz supervisors by the Ell Paso
chamber Of commerce, stated that the
county engineer had been instructed
to make necessary repairs to insure
fast time through that county.

MANY TIE SCORES IN
INITIAL RIFLE SHOOT

Under ideal weather conditions, and
shooting for valuable prizes donated
by Phoenix merchants, members of the
Rifle club enjoyed life to the full Sun

range near Papago park, was shot
over the N. r. a. qualification course
consisting of ten shots, magazine fire

each 500 and 600 yards, B target.
For first prize a handsome gold pen
knife. donated by Hege e Co, Owens
and Hughes tied with aggregate scores
of 24s. In shooting off the tie Hughes
won with a 5 against Owens on the
first shot, and the second prize, pearl
handled knife put up by the Palace
Hardware and Arms Co., went to
Owens.
Ties were the order of the day, as
Woodall and Pope tied for third place,
with aggregate scores of 245. Plead

away his gun. Woodall requested that
the tie be decided by the flip of a
coin, which was done. Pope winning

Mrs. Pope. having seen the third prize,
a colo pencil donated by White &

come home unless he brought the said
pencil Woodall took a flashlight put

BISCUIT FROM cATTAIL FLOUR
christian Science Monitor)

(Chrlst1an Science Monitor)
Long ago the Iroquois Indians used
to dry and pulverize the roots of the
cattails that grow so lavishly in Amer
lean swamps and make fur for bread
and puddings; but the fact seems to
have been forgotten until quite recent
ly. Remembering this incident in In
dian domesticity, later American has
made such flour, and United States
food experts have tested it.
Even 100 per cent cattail flour"
they report, made biscuits that were
not so different from those made with
wheat flour" and buildings made with
cattail flour in them in place of corn
starch proved to be entirely satisfac-
tory. The flavor produced by this
flour is pleasing and palatable" There
are thousands of acres of cattails in
existence, capable of producing. it is es-
timated, more than two tons of flour to
the acre. One digs and peels the roots,
much as one digs and peels potatoes.
1t seems probable that a more expedi-
tious way will be found to harvest the
crop. and that grocerymen will some
day be Weighing out cattail four as
they now sell potatoes.

AUT0SHOW HERE
To HAVE LAVISH
SCENIC EFFECTS
Decorations to Garry Latest
Oriental Note Represent
Outlay of $4,000 = Jazz
Orchestra Coming Too

That the automobile show to be held
in Phoenix during the coming fair week
is to be most deliberately decorated is
the report of Claude E. Wilson, man.
ager of the show, who returned yester-
day from a weeks stay on the coast
where he has been in the interests of
the show.
The decorations contracted for by
Wilson are of the same nature as those
used in the last similar show held in
Los Angeles, which cost the coast deal
ers a rental price of $4,000. The deco
rations rented for the Phoenix show are
to be of distinct Oriental nature and
represent to the manufacturer an out
lay of more than $4,000 Wilson has
had many years experience as a deco
rator and if his plans do not miscarry,
the interior of the huge top will offer
very striking appearance.
Over each of the 81 booths at the To-
cal show will be large oriental lamp,
while over the aisles will be hung nu-
merous large lanters of a bright color
and queer design. Many huge vases
will lend an attractive touch to the set
ting, some of which measure about five
feet in height. Along the sides of the
aisles all the way around the tent will
appear many Chinese lamp posts
topped with an elaborate Chinese lamp.
These posts measure about IA feet in
hight. Many potted palms and shrubs
will also be used.
Tea Garden Effect
The stage in the center of the tent
will be handsomely done in Chinese,
which, when completed, will resemble
an Oriental tea garden. 1t will be dec
grated in Chinese characters of bright
colors, vases, apple blossoms and a
huge lamp which will supply the light
from overheard.
Wilson was fortunate in securing for
the show, one of the foremost jazz or
chestras on the coast This orchestra
is now playing at Seal Beach cafe and
has played at the Ship cafe and num-
Der of other coast resorts, besides being
in vaudeville for a number of years.
Wilson made a trip to Seal Beach to
hear them work and he claims that
they are capable of extracting every
particle of jazz from their instruments
Two cabaret girls from the Bert-Levy
circuit will also accompany the or
chestra to Phoenix.
A number of coast dealers will bring
their cars to Phoenix to be exhibited
and it is expected that the Chaplin Air
craft corporation will bring a CONNER
cial airplane to the city for show pur-
poses. One of these planes recently
made a round trip from Los Angeles to
| San Francisco in s hours and 80 min
utes
The local automobile dealers, headed
| by a committee composed of Cal Mess
ner, Warren Macarthur and R. D. Roper
are leaving nothing undone to make the

people of the state may well be pleased
with the work of the local automobile

exhibited and should be entirely ripe
so that the tops are withered off, not
cut. Uniformity or size and shape are
considered.
Squashes and pumpkins are hard to
judge because of the many sizes and
shapes of different varieties. They
should have a solid shell and be free
from olemishes.
Potatoes-Here again uniformity of
size is desired. Do not select large po-
tatoes. A medium sized tuber or
slightly above medium size should be
selected. They should be smooth free
from scab or other spots. Try to dig
them so they are free from dirt Po-
tatoes should never be washed unless
they. are dug from mud. If washing
is absolutely necessary, use very soft
cloth and be careful not to injure the
skin in any way.

URGE FARMERS
To EXHIBIT IN
ARIZONA 8 FAIR

d. With the Arizona State fair only
three weeks away, Oscar c.. Bartlett,
superintendent of the agricultural and
horticultural departments, is urging
that all farmers and fruit growers who
intend TO exhibit secure their entry
blanks at once and file them as soon
as possible with the fair commission.
These blanks may be obtained from
any chamber of commerce or CONNER
cial organization in the state or upon
application to the Arizona State Fair
commission, Fleming building, Phoe-
nix.
All perishable fruits and vegetables
intended for entry should be shipped
by express, prepaid. Special ar
rangements have been made with the
Constable Cold Storage Warehouse of
Phoenix for the storage of such ex-
hibits, and the storage charges will be
met by the commission.
The following suggestions will give
exhibitors many valuable hints on the
selection of their displays:
Cabbages are judged, first, on true
ness of type. If you are exhibiting
several heads, do not mix the pointed
ones with the round or flat heads. If
you have two or three types, show
them separately. Two or three of the
outer leaves should be left on, but
leave them SO they look neat. Select
medium sized heads that are solid. A
large head with smaller ones is always
thrown out.
Cauliflowers are judged upon COM
pactness and whiteness of head. The
leaves should be left on, but should be
chopped so they will extend about two
inches above the head; this is to pro-
tect the head. Then, showing two OF
more heads, they should be about the
same size, shape and color.
Rutabagas and turnips are judged
upon uniformity of size, shape and
color. They should be of medium
size and smooth, with no side spots
The leaves should be trimmed not toe
close to the root 1t is better to leave
the neck with the leaves trimmed
closely.
Seets are judged the same as tur-
nips, only smaller specimens are al
loweu,
types the short, half-long and long
The falf-long are best to exhibit, ant
should be of medium size, shape anC
Color. NO sue IOOl CTOpS may Ut
washed for exhibition; top crops may
be washed for exhibition, but never
use a brush. Soak specimens in watei
for short time, then rub or wash will
soft cloth. Do not damage or bruis,
the skin.
Radlshes are generally selected b!
punches of four to six and should b.
shown with all foliage left on; just re
move the dry leaves and make neat
Uniform punches.
Parsnips-Same applies to these a.
to carrots.
Tomatoes-Select perfect specimens
They should be perfectly smooth an,
show no indication of ridges, nor an,
black mark at the tip. Do not remov
the calyx leaves that are attached t.
the tomato.
Peas and Beans-These are gener
ally judged in pods. Size and unifor
nifty of pod are considered and ais
the number of peas in pod.
Onions-Dried onions are usual
