the cards closely with his keen black
eyes. The dealer showed his hand,
made a few quick passes, and the
black card flew out to the right. This
was Dawes chance. He bounced on
it with his left hand, while his other
plunged into his pocket.
''Sixty dollars on this one" he cried,
and there was the triumphant note in
his voice of the man who knows he
has beaten the other at his own game.

SENSATIONAL Scene IN The SENATE
SHOW GREAT
INCREASE1N
PRODUCTION

WASHINGTON, D. C. June g.
The Department of Agriculture es-
Inmates that 314,936 tractors will be
produced in the United States during
the present year. In 1918 the pro-
duction was l32,697. At che end of
1917 there were only 15,525 tractors
on hand in the United States.
The widespread use of the tractor
on the farm, brought about by the
shortage of farm labor, due to the
fact that a million farmers and farm
laborers were called into military ser
wee lis responsible for this tremen-
dous increase in the use of the trac-
tor.
Despite the marked growth Of the
industry, Department of Agriculture
officials believe that it is just begin
ming, but are unable to predict what
will be its ultimate effect on farming.
But that the trend is toward motor
lied farming is undeniably shown by
the fact that motor trucks are being
purchased by farmers in ever irc-o~,
ing numbers. Impetus to the use of
tractors on the farm will be given,
too, by the fact that thousands of
yeang 1hen called from the farms
were trained in the use of motor We
hlcles during their army service, pre-
pairing them for the operation of mo-
'orized farm machinery.

METRIC SYSTEM
ENDORSED BY THE
NOCA[ESCHAMBER.
OF co N N T RCE|

At Thursday nights meeting of the
Board of Directors, the Nogales
Chamber of Commerce went on re-
record in favor of the nationwide
movement to have the metric system
of weights and measures adopted by
our government. It was urged, how
ever, that ample time be given in
changing from the present standards
in order that business may not suffer
undue hardships. During the discus
sion it was brought out that the
United States and Great Britain and
her colonies are the only nations Of
the civilized world not employing the
metric system. Americans, much in
c!ined to ridicule foreign monetary
systems in comparing them with our
metric monetary system in use in
this country, forget that our pounds
and grams and quarts and bushels
are confusing not only to foreigners
but to ourselves and are clumsy to
handle in figuring costs and prices.
The Board instructed the secre-
tary to apply to the Town Council
for the pro-rata of taxation income
permitted for Chamber of Commerce
use under existing State legislation,
requesting that this amount be IN
cluded in the next Town budget.
Following a short talk by James r.
Moore of Douglas. representing the
War Department and War Camp
Community Service, the Chamber
went on record in favor of an En-
listed Mems Club Room in Nogales.

money and maintains the club. A

CONVENTION
ADOPT BETTER
M { 7 H @ DS.

ALBUQUERQUE, N. NJ, June c.
The first move made in the southwest
in the interest Of the nationwide cam
paign for vastly enlarged forestry
production and the appulication of
forestry principles to all forest land
was inaugurated here with a meeting
of the southwest section, of the Soci-
ETY. of American Foresters.
The foresters advocate the immed-
late extension of state and govern
ment regulatory powers in forestry
to all lands in the United States that
shall be classified as primarily val
liable for timber culture. 1t was
pointed out that with destructive
methods Of logging in effect on the
overwhelming bulk of all forest land
throughout the nation, with recurrent
fires devastating huge areas and rem
dering them sterile for decades, with
little effort to provide for future
timber crop except on state and ma
tional forests and the timber lands CT
a few of the more> progressive pri-
vate owners, the country is facing in
the near future serious shortage of
lumber.
With this situation in mind, the So
ciety voted unanimously in favor Of
the following forestry program for
Arizona and New Mexico.
% The passage of adequate
state fire laws as an aid in the pre-
vention of the annual forest fire de-
such laws to take the form
Of fre-law enforcement by existing
state, county, and municipal officials
and the punishment of persons who
or negligently start forest
fires.
(2) Fire cooperation with own
ers Of large private timber holdings.
(3) Cooperation with states and
private owners in the cutting Of tim
Der according to the principles Of
forestry, technical assistance to be
furnished by the federal government.
(4) The passage of adequate
timberland tax laws, with tax on
the land as real estate and another
tax on the timber itself, but collected
only when the timber is cut or har-
vested. It was pointed out that all
existing tax laws regard timber as
a part of the real estate itself, instead
of as a crop; that the timber is taxed
continuously, although it takes two
centuries in the southwest for wes-
tern yellow pine to grow from the
seed to the mature tree ready for
cutting; and that it is therefore un-
profitable for private owners to hold
young timber for future cutting.
(5) The The acquisition Of pri-
vate timber holdings by the federal
government by purchase, with provi-
sion for a financial return to the sta
tes at least equal to the present re-
turns from taxation.
Committees were appointed to work
out the detailed program.

PACIFIC COAST
INDIANS

Portland, Ore, June 6th,-Is the
League of Nations really so very new
or did the many Indian tribes on the
western coast of our country, back
in the early eighteen hundreds, live
in security and peace under prac-
tically the self-same principles as ex-
pounded in the Wilsonian idea.
The inquiry is prompted and
brought to light here in the suit of
the Nez Perces Indians, fighting for
their rights to fish in the waters of
streams from which state control
seeks to force them out-the State
against the Indian; the Indians ap-
pealing to the Mighty Power, the
Government, his league for protec-
ton.
Their treaty is but one of many. 1t
was originally made in 1856, on June
IL, between the chiefs and Isaac Ste
vens, Governor and Superintendent Of
Indian Affairs for Territorial Wash
ington, and Joel Palmer, Superintend-
ent of Indian Affairs for Territorial
Oregon.
1t aimed to prevent war. No tribe
was to war against another except in
self defense, and then an appeal was
to be made to the ocicial above named
even before this action was reported
to Failure to do menat loss of annui-
ties, lands and rights, and provided
strict indemnities.
The valley of the Wo-na-ne-she
went to the United States in 1855
The valley of the Grand Ronde River
from the ridge of the blue Mountains
to the mouth of the Will-low-now
was set apart for the tribes to share
alike in hunting and fishing.
The Indians surrendered man!

Bloodthirsty chieftians seeking su
premacy over nearby tribes accounted

And now Chief Yellow Bull, his ad
wiser, Jackson Shutdown, and Edwart
Paul, interpreter, have journeye'
from Lapwai, Ida, to the League
Officials" here, asking that the cove
nants of the treaty of 1855 be per
petuated and adhered to.
