are yelping because they are being
asked to subscribe to another loan.
They don't want to hear the war
mentioned, except in terms of re-
proach and apology. There Is nothing
that they will believe about the Hun
except that he must have been terribly
lied about. But their main constdera-
ton Is to keep from subscribing dol
lar to the Victory Liberty Loan and
their tongues are clacking very busily
at every opportunity to cripple the
Victory issue in every possible way.
THE word Victory is not
sweet upon their lips, unless
perchance 1t might be a Ger
man victory. The safety Of their
skins has always been paramount.
and their strongest interest In
life just now Is to keep every dollar
In their purses. There is sheer In

Ho1D Hun Figured
American Indemnity
By c. M. MORRISON.

~ YER in Paris the delegates to
the peace conference have been
talking about the amount of
the German indemnity, the size Of the
fine that should be assessed on Hun
land for it's recent attempt to chain
the world down in links forged in Els
sen.
And from time to time someone has
recalled that the Hun had fixed the
amount to be collected from America
at $40, 1000, 100000. That is right, 40
billion dollars.
Unlike the allied peace delegates,
Germany was never In any doubt about
how big figure should be named.
They had the indemnity figures all
worked out for the allied nations. And
you can gamble that they would have
collected every dollar, every franc
and every pound Of the amount. too.
Your Hun was never gentle little
mild-mannered irresponsible when It
came to taking what he wanted. He
would have collected.
Thanks to the free nations of the
earth, the Hun is in no position to
make any demands. In fact, so badly
was he battered in the process OF
whipping him that he is hardly worth
making any demands upon at the pres
ent time.
But consider. We have raised, up
to the Fifth Loans beginning, about
$4,000. 100000 in Liberty Loan funds.
Not quite half as much as the Hun
would have assessed upon us had he
come to New York and Washington
to have received our submission. g
And yet there are some lavender

and also more and more influential in
legislative matters. If the agitation
goes on, they are likely to press over
legislation which might seriously in
jure both the packers and the pro-
ducers.
1t seems to me the packers have
pursued very foolish policy. Indeed,
the energy with which they have
fought this legislation, and the meth
DDS they have adopted, have seemed
TO many senators and members of con-
gress to offer the best of all reasons
why the legislation should be enacted.
Admitting that the packing business
is private business, the dominance
which the five big packers are exer-
cising over the food of the country,
and the manner in which they have
spread out into other lines of busi-

ness, and the tremendous influence
they have acquired in financial circles,
make it necessary that they should be
brought under some sort Of govern
ment supervision. AS have said once
before, while not in form public util-
ity concerns, their very size names
them so in fact; and the demand Tor
supervisory legislation will increase

the bills carefully. Farmers and stock !
men ought to, write their senator. .
and congressman, and say to them
that they would like to see legislation
enacted that will provide for fair gov
eminent supervision of the packing
and live stock marketing concerns,
and thus put stop to the agitation,
which, if continued is bound to have
a very serious effect on the producers.

steadily instead Of diminishing.

Tt seems to me that those producers
who are opposing the legislation are
very unwise. 1 do not believe they
have thought the thing through.
Most of them have been deceived by
the propaganda carried on by the
packers, commission merchants and
stock yards papers. They should study
Arizona republican. [volume] (Phoenix, Ariz.) 1890-1930, 1919-10-12

Without going further into the mat
ter, do not hesitate to give it as my
opinion that the quicker legislation of
the general sort provided for in the
Kenyon Hendricks bills is enacted, the
better it will be for the producer and
the consumer and for the packer as
well. The longer action is delayed, the
greater the agitation will be and the
greater the distrust of the packers;
and the longer action is delayed, the
more stringent will be the legislation
finally enacted. The consumers are
becoming more and more interested,

hesitate to voice their suspicious.
Many farmers and stockmen are
fearful Of the authority given the sec
rotary of agriculture to suspend or re-
woke the licenses of the packers. Some
Of this fear is due TO the belief that
the present secretary Of agriculture is
not as conversant with agricultural
matters as he ought to be, and
through lack of knowledge might do
something which would restrict the
live stock market. Many also feel
that such power should not be lodged
in the hands of any man, but instead
In commission of say five men. AS
l have shown, under these bills the
secretary can not arbitrarily suspend
th@ licenses, but must grant full hear
ing, and the licensee then has a right
to appeal to the courts if he feels that
he has been unjustly treated. I think
1t likely, however, that the senate
committee will redraft this provision
| before the bills are finally perfected,
and the licences will be fully safe
| guarded. None of the senators want
to do anything that will Interfere with
any legitimate business, nor to inter-
fere in any way with the free move
ment of live stock and meat products.
On the contrary, the purpose of pro-
posed legislation is to help the farmer
and stockman to get better conditions
than he has ever had before.

AN IcELESS REFRIGERATOR

Where ice is not obtainable an ice
less refrigerator, homemade, will be
found useful to keep meat, fruit and
vegetables cool 1t will extend the
keeping period for milk and butter and
serve also as cooler for drinking
water.
In homes where large quantities Of
milk and butter are to be kept, II
would be well to have one refriger-
ator for milk and butter, and another
for other foods, as milk and butter
readily absorb odors from other foods.
1t costs very little to build the re
frigerator and nothing to operate It,
The u. S. Department of Agriculture
tells how to make and operate it,
A wooden frame is made with di-
mensions AZ by 16 by IA inches, and
is covered with screen wire, prefer
ably the rustless type, which costs
little more than the ordinary kind.
The door, made to fit closely and
mounted on brass hinges, can be fas-
tened with a wooden latch. The bot
tom is fitted solid, but the top should
be covered with screen wire. Adjust
able shelves can be made of solid
wood or strips, or sheets of galvanized
metal. Shelves made of poultry net
ting on light wooden frames, are prob
ably the most desirable. These
shelves rest on side braces placed at
desired intervals. A bread baking pan
IA by Is inches, is placed on the top
and the frame rests in a 17inch by
1S-inch pan.
All of the woodwork, the shelves,
and the pans should receive two coats
of white paint and one or two coats
of white enamel This makes an at
tractive surface and one that can be
easily kept clean. The screen wire
also may receive the coats of enamel,
which will prevent it from rusting.
A cover of canton flannel, burlap,
or duck is made to fit the frame. Put
the smooth side out if canton flannel
is used 1t will require about three
yards of material. This cover is but
toned around the top of the frame and

down the side on which the door is
not hinged, using buggy hooks and
eyes or largeheaded tacks and eye
lets worked in the material. On the
front side arrange the hooks on the
| top of the door instead of on the frame
and also fasten the cover down the
latch side of the door allowing a wide
hem of the material to overlap the
place where the door closes. The
door can then be opened without un-
buttoning the cover. The bottom of
the cover should extend down into the
lower pan Four double strips, which
taper to or 10 inches in width, are
sewed to the upper part of the cover.
These strips form wicks that dip over
into the upper pan.
The dimensions given make a re-
frigerator of convenient size for house
hold use and one with efficient evapor-
ating surface, but it is not necessary
to follow strictly these dimensions. If
larger capacity is desired, the height
of the refrigerator can be increased.
Operation OF the refrigerator is as
simple as its construction. The lower
ing Of temperature inside the refriger-
ator depends upon the evaporation of
water. To change water from a liquid
to a vapor, or to bring about evapor-
alton, requires heat. AS evaporation
takes place heat is taken from the in
side of the refrigerator, thereby low
ering the temperature of the inside
and the contents.
Keep the upper pan filled with wa
ter. The water is drawn by capillary
attraction through the wicks and sat
starts more readily if the cover is first
dampened by dipping it into water or
throwing water upon it with the hand.
The greater the rate of evaporation
the lower the temperature, which can
be secured; therefore the refrigera-
tor works best when rapid evaporation
takes place. When the refrigerator
is placed in a shady place in a strong
breeze and the air is warm and dry,
evaporation goes on continuously and
rapidly and the temperature inside the
refrigerator is reduced Under ideal
conditions the temperature has been
known to be reduced to so degrees F.
When the air is damp the refrigerator
will not work as well, since there is
not enough evaporation. More water
will find its way to the lower pan, but
it will be drawn up into the covering
| by capillary attraction when the air
becomes drier.
The refrigerator should be regular
! ly cleaned and summed. If the frame
