 Police Curb Outbreak
 The negroes were overtaken and rescued from the mob by policemen. In the meantime squads of mounted police arrived in the district in antici- paticn of trouble and what was ex- pect~i to be the most serious outbreak of the night was curbed.
 Police wires were busy all night with pleadings from frightened women for protection. Many of them feared to leave the scene of action and they were terrified by the dramatic battles and feared their homes would be wrecked before morning.
 Street lights along some streets were smashed and the streets darkened Then the bright flashes from pistols would signify a new battle and in almost no time the immediate vicinity would be a surging mass of whites and blacks. When they came together in large crowds, fists knives and clubs were used
 One of the morning newspapers will place the estimated dead at IA. nine whites and five blacks and another win place the number of dead at l3, Il blacks and two whites. The city news bureau places the dead at seven.

MORE CORPORATIONS APPEAR ANXIOUS ID
 PAY UP THEIR FEES

The publicity recently given by The poration commission intends to insti- ute dissolution proceedings against those corporations in arrears in the matter of annual reports and fees con- tinues to bear fruit.
 Hundreds of letters are being re- ceived, dozens of remittances are com ing in and undoubtedly according to A. E. Stelzer of the commission, the state will be saved much expense in the collections by means of this pub Icity.
 Letters and remittauces are being received from coast to coast, the story having been sent over the wire as well as published here. Many amusing in cidents are coming to light. One woman who describes herself as about all there is left of the company wrote in to ask that she be left out of the proposed suit and enclosing two years reports and fees. Another sent a tele- gram asking that action be delayed thirty days as all the officers of the corporation were away and would doubtless be somewhat discommoded to return and find their company had been dissipated into thin air in the meantime.
 A bank sent in their report and fee for the past year and inquired if they were in arrears further back They were. One man wrote that there were so - many kinds of - - fees and taxes to pay he had lost track of them, but if his company were behind he would be glad to catct | up. Others of equal interest are con ! tinuing to pour in-but Assistant County Attorney Candy is still work on the preliminaries of the dissolution | proceedings.

 A REAL A|RP[ANE

While in New York on his recent trip east, A. A. Betts, chairman of the corporation commission, looked up Wes Hill, of the Apache Aerial company, and with Hill went to inspect the plane and motor being built for the com pany
 Officials of the All Metal Airplane company from whom the plane has been ordered, expressed the greatest regret that they had been unable to deliver the machine sooner but stated that it is now well under way, as the government has eased up in the matter of supplies of aluminium, the metal of which it is being constructed. MT. Betts inspected the motor being built, and was assured that similar motor had been run experimentally, under full load, for four or five times the length of time any other airplane motor has ever been used without hav- l ing to be overhauled
 Hill plans, now that the Atlantic City season will be ended before he gets the plane, to take it to Palm Beach 1 for the winter before coming out to Phoenix. MT. Betts says that the two companies that operated at Atlantic | City this summer were busy all the 1 time, charging s25 for eight minute 1 flights, and that Hill believes as good business can be done at Palm Beach this winter.

BACK FROM HEARING
 ON W|NSL0W WATER

The corporation commission has re- turned from holding hearing on wa ter rates in Winslow. According to the chairman of the commission, A. A. Betts, the citizens of Winslow are well satisfied with the minimum rate of S1,75 for the first 5000 gallons, but desire that the rate per 1000 above the minimum be lowered to F cents, from the present rate of 50 cents.
 The water company is owned by the Santa Fe, and brings in supply for both the railroad and the town from Clear Creek, a distance of six miles The present rates were set a year ago when the meters were installed the former flat rate having been $3. Al that time the consumption by the towr was about 50 per cent, which had beer reduced to approximately 13 per cen under the meters, but many resident. feel that the rate is too high to justif. | the use of enough water to keep theil lawns and trees in good condition, an( consequently desire lower rate.

the street car company ordered that no more cars be taken into the troubled area. The elevated trains also quit running in dangerous territory.
 Troops continued to move to cen- tralized point on the South Side throughout the night, but up to mid night they had not been ordered to begin patrolling the streets. This was explained by the statement that the outbreaks had slackened to such ex- tent that the police could afford as much protection as the troops.
 Hundreds of stenographers, clerks and loop employers who must pass through the black belt to reach their homes remained in the business dis trict hotels and at North Side lodging places.
 Poolrooms, moving picture houses and other gathering places in the black belt were ordered closed.
 While the black belt was seething with strife, negro educators and churchmen sent out appeal after ap- peal that the negroes go to their homes and keep peace.
 They charged that in most outbreaks the negroes had been heclzled by whites.
 The disorders did not extend nortt to the business district, except fol minor outbreaks.

DAIRY TALKS
The Dairyman Who Has Not Already Planted a Silage Crop Should Do So at Once
No. /

Contrary to the belief of some ranchers 1t Is not too late to plant silage crop, for unless there should be very early fall, the crop will mature very satisfactorily. However, the crop should by all means be planted within the next Is days.
 The ground to be planted should be irri- gated at once, and as soon afterwards as the ground can be worked. MEXICAN JUNE corn should be listed in rows 3 feet apart and to 6 inches apart in the row, or HE- GIRA may be planted. The yield from MEXICAN JUNE corn should be from 12 to IS tons of ensilage per acre, with possibly 20 tons under the best conditions.
 Where the dairyman has no silo, plans should be made to start erection of the proper sized silo at once, so that by the time the crop is ready there will be place to house it.
 Dairymen who use ensilage seldom find cause for complaint at the size of their cream checks per cow, or from the test of butter-fat in the milk, for combined with grain, alfalfa roots, or cotton-seed meal, an ideal food ration can be maintained throughout the year, pro- ducing a copious flow of milk rich in butter fat A product most satisfactory to the dairy man and the creamery well. The creamery would much rather purchase at HIGHER PRICE, less volume of milk with a greater percentage of butter-fat, while by proper feed ing dairy herd may be made to produce 2Ooo or even more revenue to the dairyman without any addition to the investment in the COWS.
 Since an ensilage crop is "short-lived" one, being produced, harvested and out of the way in very short time, it can readily be seen that the returns of such crop for the invest ment involved is very great
 We would welcome any suggestions as to any other siage or late feeding crops from, practical dairymen. Feel free to address this department at all times, telling your problems or sharing your knowledge of the business.

SOLDIERS GRAVES TO
BE PHOTOGRAPHED

Washington, d. c., February "a
Plans have been perfected by the
American Red Cross whereby photo
graphs of identified graves of Ameri
can soldiers in France will be sent to
relatives of heroes in this country
Several hundred such photographs
already have been forwarded to
families OF men who died in service
overseas, and announcement today
from A. r. c., headquarters today says
that the work of obtaining photographs
has been speeded to point where
production from now on is expected to
reach about 1000 every month. The
photograph will be sent to the next
of kin
The Red Cross has undertaken the
task at the request of the War De-
partment, and under authority of
Lieut.. Col. C. C. Pierce of Graves
Registration Service. Headquarters of
their Service are at Tours, France.
Each photograph will be mounted in
a cardboard folding frame, one side of
which contains data concerning the
dead soldier.
While all requests for such photo
graphs should be forwarded to the
Bureau of Communication, American
Red Cross, such requests will not be
really necessary and will not hurry
receipt of the photograph Neither
will special requests receive any
special consideration.
Every identified grave in France will
be photographed. Photographers will
not be permitted to deviate from the
in order to take a pic
iure OF any particular graves. The
Red Cross will forward the photo
graphs to relatives as soon as they
are received at headquarters.

TO PUSH PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS.

At meeting of the FesNfs9 Com
munity Labor Board composed Of Mr.
r, G. Hibbler, chairman; Mr.. G. H
Franck, Mr.. e. b. Martin and Inspector
Martin Turnbull, held at the Federal
Employment Office Wednesday, a pro-
gressive programme of cooperation
with the Employment Service was
adopted. The meeting was one of the
most harmonious ever called as each
member assumed a full measure of
responsibility to encourage thrift and
civic pride in the community.
The public will be called upon to
support every enterprise of merit and
general good. The betterment of liv
ing conditions in the home and manu-
featuring plant, on the farm and on
the sea, in fact, wherever the people
are placed to earn a livelihood.
Special attention will be given the
own home privilege in America.
Do you believe in a commission form
of government for local happiness?
The answer should be; Yes. Then
pull together.
Are you in favor of macadamized
thcroughfares? Naturally the answer
would be- Yes. Then don't kick at
reasonable taxation.
If in sympathy with honest labor,
why are they not entitled to "rest
room? Then build a suitable struc-
ture for their refreshment and comfort.
The Bible says that the laborer is
worthy of hire. Petition the local
to utilize the military bar
racks in course of construction on the |
river front for a "Workman's Rest |
Room"
Be just in all your dealings with
your fellow men. If sum or roll of
money is picked up on the streets
endeavor to find the owner. Don't |
pocket what does not belong to you.
rhe same principle applies to your
abor-don't lay down on the job, but
perform it we'll.
Capital and labor fraternized makes
is wondrous kind
Save, buy war saving stamps and
invest in Victory bond.
Be booster-like the rooster, crow
bout your town.
Get in the League of Nations class
nd be faithful and earnest American.
