STOCKMEN ASKED TO
 ASSIST IN STRENUOUS
 MOVE TO STOP BLACKLEC

A letter warning stockmen of the state against an epidemic of blackleg has been issued by the livestock sani- tary board. The letter was sent out a few days ago by Secretary Stephens of the livestock sanitary board, and is as follows:
 Phoenix, Ariz.. Aug. 6, '19. To Cattle Growers of Arizona:
 This letter is written as an earnest appeal to secure your cooperation in stamping out blackleg. Recent out breaks of blackleg throughout the state have created a situation of grave menace to the cattle industry of Arizona. For this reason the Arizona livestock sanitary board has adopted a program of prompt and vigorous ac- tion to control this malady before it becomes general. To this end we ask you to act promptly vaccinate against blackleg, and vaccinate right.
 Many stockmen do not begin to vaccinate until they have lost one of their animals. Some do not wake up until they have lost a dozen. Why your stock by vaccination? In this connection it ishould be remembered that the present splendid range con- ditions, make cattle fat, and fat calves are especially susceptible to blackleg.
 The most effective preventive of the blackleg is germ-free vaccine (Agres- sin). This is not trade name, but the name of vaccine product that is sold by wholesale drug concerns under government supervision. It is recom- mended by this board and by Dr. R. J. Flight, state veterinarian, because it protects cattle from blackleg during the entire period of natural suscepti- bility, thus making repeated vaccina- ton unnecessary. Competition among manufacturers has resulted in a re- duction in price of this particular vac cine of about 50 per cent, thereby re- ducing the cost of treatment very ma terially. In compliance with the law, we keep a supply of standard vaccines and serums on hand and dispense the same to the stock growers at actual cost.
 This board is not interested in where you obtain your blackleg vac cine, so long as 1t is standard Germ- Free Vaccine (Agressin). Pay no at tention to overzealous agents who recommend their particular brand as superior or who charge that this board is putting out an inferior arti- cle. We can not quote prices, as these are subject to change, and we buy in small quantities to keep stock fresh. We are in a position, however, to dis pense at actual cost plus expressage.
 We ask prompt compliance with our suggestion, thus aiding us in stamp ing out what might prove to be very serious menace to the cattle interests of the state. If we can assist or ad- wise you in this or any other matter pertaining to live stock, remember we are here to serve.

IS OLDEST PLACE OF WORSHIP

There are five sacred mountains in China, and the most sacred of all is Tai Shan, the Great Mountain, said to be the oldest permanent place of wor- ship in the world. In 2000 B. c. Tai Shan's crest had been a regular scene of sacrifices and prayers, for nobody knew how long, Emperors and lesser officials, even Confucius and Wise, journeyed up the long, narrow trail of Tai Shan to come near to the God of heaven and earth and make their prayers before Him.
 Since those days of simple worship, many temples and shrines have been built on Tai Shan's slopes. Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, all are repre- sented, and there are temples, too, to the lady of the mountain, who is called by some fairy, by others a goddess, and by others the spirit or soul of the mountain. Whatever her character, the lady is we'll represents ed on her mountain top and her shrines are popular.
 The journey up the mountain side is accomplished by the traveller partly in swinging chair supported by Chinese bearers and partly on foot. The "way" consists of a granite walk, interrupted every little while by the flights of steps which stretch on and on and become sleeper and closer to- gether until the pilgrim has mounted 6,600 steps and the peak of Tai Shan is reached.
 Here there are more temples and thick incense and grave old priests who announce pilgrims presence to the gods by ringing deep-toned bells.

OUR NEW COUNTY AGENT
 WON U. s. POTATO PRIZE

The new county farm agent, who will be here soon, is practical man as well as one we'll qualified in theory. He is Francis Chisholm, who gradu- ated three years ago from the Colo rado Agricultural College, and is now assistant club leader for that state.
 Chisholm is the chap who last year won the s1,000 prize offered by the United States department of Agricul- ture for the biggest crop of potatoes from one acre. Chisholm raised 900 bushels.
 This will set a lot of our Coconino county farmers to dreaming about phenomenal potato crops. Chisholm's help may enable some of our progress sive farmers to produce some record breaking crops of their own.

ARIZONA WOOL CLIP IS
 PLACED AT 5000, ,000 POUNDS

The Phoenix chamber of commerce estimates that the wool clip for Ari- zona will run about 5,000,000 pounds. It has issued the following statement in regard to the matter:
 The figures regarding the wool clip this year are not yet complete, but by passing an estimate on figures that we have secured, we believe that the clip will be 10 to 15 per cent less than last year. It is probable that the total clip will not run over 5,000,000 pounds. Since 1911 the wool clip was as follows.

A little way off is pointed out rock overhanging sheer precipice. From this rock, called "The Rock of the Love of Life," persons who had sick relatives used to fling themselves, hoping that the sacrifice of one life would appease the gods so that the other would be spared. Now the dan gerous cliff is barred, and pilgrims are forced to appeal to the gods in the conventional Chinese methods.

Most of the wool from Arizona is shipped to eastern commission houses on consignment. The bulk of this years clip has passed out of the growers hands, but 50 per cent is still unsold.
 The number of sheep in Arizona in 1916 was 100000. The number on January 1, 1919, was 1 100000.
 The quality of the wool is about as usual. It is fair quality for un- washed wool. Some Indian sheep on the northern reservations produce a poor quality of wool.
 Cattle and sheep are now in excel lent condition. The range at the pres- ent time is in the best condition for several years. There is no indica- tion now that stock will be forced on the market for lack of feed for sev- eral months at least.

 During the month of June 13,25O quarts of poisoned grain were dis tributed over 42,141 acres of Arizona ranges and ranches by the Biological Survey, agricultural extension service and livestock forces engaged cooper atively in the big state drive against noxious rodent pests.
 "The Livestock Squad" sent over the state by the agricultural extension service will have along experts on the poisonous plants of the range grasses, browse and grazing, livestock breed ing, animal parasites, livestock dis eases, silos and livestock feeds, and many other livestock subjects. In all about 20 public meetings will be held. Get the routing from your county agent and join the "squad" as they pass your way.
 An Arizona doctor gives the follow ing advice to desert travellers: "When possible take along small bottle of lime juice and cake of magnesia; drop little of the juice thereon, and one's thirst will be immediately quenched after taking a mouthful or two; it is soothing and moistening to the mouth"
 Arizona corn acreage shows an in- crease of 10 per cent. About S7,00o acres were planted this year, which compared with 34,000 acres last year. Based on conditions July 1 to 94 per cent of normal crop, the total pro- duction should be about 1,358,000 bushels. This compares with 952,000 last year and s64,O0O bushels two years ago.
