 Resignation

Cleveland, Ohio, July 19.-Lee
 FohI, manager of the Cleveland
 American league baseball club for
 the past three years, resigned as
 manager of the team today. The
 resignation was accepted by Presi-
 dent Bum, who appointed Iris
 Speaker, outfielder, manager for
 the rest of the season. FohPs
 resignation, it is said, was be-
 cause of dissatisfaction of the
 public with his management.
 In tending his resignation to Presi- dent Dunn. Fohl said:
 q feel that the fans are not for me, and as I have your interests at heart first and my own last, I think 1t best for all concerned for me to chance to win the pennant and I don't want to appear in the light of being q hindrance to them I hope they will win the pennant."
 Fohl will be retained on the payroll in some capacity, either as coach pr scout. President Dunn said.
 The unfortunate ending of yester- days game with Boston, when Rush hit home run with three on base es, giving Boston the game to [, is said to have caused Fohl to resign. Fans who saw the game were bitter in their criticism of Fohl for picking Pitcher Coumbe. who had not pitched game in two months, to pitch to Ruth, in stead of one of the first string twirl- CTS

 Slap broke the season's strike out
 record for Redwood when he fam

MR.FARMER ATTENTION!
 HELP SHOW COCONINO!

You could not send anything to the State Fair last year because there was no State Fair on account of the influ- enza. We want to make up for lost time this fall and show the people of Arizona and the Southwest that Coco nino county has the goods when it comes to production.
 Do not forget when selecting ex- hibits for the State Fair that it is the best and not always the biggest that counts. In potatoes select a peck which are true to type or the shape they should be for that particular va riety. A peck of threshed grain or beans should be hand picked. Have them ready when I call, which will be about spud digging time. This hand picking of grain is an important matter and it will be we'll worth your while.
 The fruits will put in cold storage as soon as I receive them.
 Look the premium list over care fully and you will know the quantity required for any exhibit. Make as many entries as you can.
 I want to get premium list into the hands of every farmer and any one else interested in Coconino coun- ty. Copies may be obtained by ap- plying to the county agent, No. 4 Ma sonic building; A. A. Johnston, City Hall; or L. c. Riley, president of the chamber of commerce, Flagstaff.
 Advertising pays-and this is the best advertising in the world.

FARM NOTES OF
 GENERAL INTEREST

Range grasses are maturing seed and seeding the ground for next year.
 Eight hundred stockmen met the Livestock Squad" on it's trip over the state.
 Arizona cotton conditions are 90 to 96 per cent as compared with this date last year. Picking is in progress in the Salt River and Yuma valleys.
 At the request of Governor Camp bell, an inspection was made at Flor ence of the prison farm by Prof. c. E. Thompson, agronomist of the col lege of agriculture.
 c. U. Pickrell, extension animal husbandman, met with the Graham Cochise County Cattle Growers Asso- citation at Benson this week and re- ports good convention.
 If the folks of a community did as much for the local paper as the local paper does for the community there would be fewer weekly newspapers going out of business because they can not make the cashbook balance.
 Within the past week 15,000 doses of Aggressin permanent immunity blackleg vaccine have been sent from Arizona to three cattle outfits in So- nora, Mexico. This indicates that some of the big cattle outfits of north- ern Mexico are using up-to-date meas ures in preventing disease.
 H. c. Barker, of Tucson, Ariz., re- gently sold the last of his onions off one-fourth acre of land for $500. This would make his crop worth $1 200 per acre.

Range and Market News Livestock Industry of Arizona
 Market Letter for the Past Week.
CALIFORNIA MAN BUYS $S0,O0O
 HERD CATTLE NEAR PHOENIX

One of the largest cattle transac- tions in the Salt River valley in some time was announced by c. w. Bowers, president of the Merritt Bowers Co. of Tulare, Cal, who stated that he had purchased the entire shorthorn herd of the Bartlett-Heard Land & Cattle Co.,, numbering 146 head.
 The Merritt Bowers Go. is one of the largest livestock concerns on the coast, and has previously purchased large consignments of Arizona cattle. Practically all of the stock bought from the Bartlett Heard Go. has been sold in California with the exception of a carload of 2-year-old heifers, which will be sent directly to River side for exhibition, and will ge from there to Los Angeles, and later to San Francisco.
 "In shipping the 2-year-olds to the coast for exhibition" stated Mir. Mer- ritt, i've are not going to try to con- ceal the fact that they are from Ari- zona. We are proud of it and are going to be sure that wherever they go on exhibition, everyone will know where they were raised. We always have thought this the finest place in the country--in the world, for that matter-and this herd will certainly prove our contention"
 The consideration for the cattle was in the neighborhood of S30,000, ac- cording to Mr. Merritt. He is enthusi- astic over cattle and stock conditions in Arizona and intends to return to Phoenix at State Fair time to inspect the exhibits and possibly be an exhib- itor himself.

.HOWLOCO WEED MAY BE DESTROYED ON RANCH

w. w. Eggleston, poison plant ex- pert of the bureau of plant industry of the Department of Agriculture who accompanied the Livestock Squad" of the agricultural extension service, has the following to say of interest to stockmen:
 "Loco disease is caused by various plants of the pea family. The noun tain or white loco (Oxytropis lam berti) and the blue or rattleweed loco (Astragalus diphysus) being among the bad loco weeds of Arizona. These are both considered perennial plants but several species of biennial Astra- galus are also referred to as bad loco weeds by the stockmen.
 "The mountain or white loco as it occurs in Arizona and New Mexico usually has pink flowers and is found in the higher attitudes in the yellow pine belt, being particularly abundant in that zone about the San Francisco mountains.
 "Blue loco or rattleweed is desert species, being usually found just be- low the zone of yellow pine. This species probably causes much more damage in Arizona than mountain loco.
 Many of the Astragli have been proven harmless and good forage and this might we'll be expected since the pea family contains some of our best forage plants, like alfalfa, the clovers and the vetch, etc.
 "Like all other poison plants, loco causes little trouble to stock unless the animals are hungry. Whenever the range is short one may look for loco poisoning because the loco weed is usually one of the first to come up in early spring or after a dry spell. In the Southwest the greatest damage appears to occur to horses, although cattle and sheep are equally damaged whenever they eat the weed in sufficient quantities. Mountain loco seems equally poisonous to horses, cattle and sheep, while rattleweed ex- perimentally has been proven more poisonous to horses.
 "Loco weeds have to be eaten in large quantities to cause damage. At least 300 pounds for sheep and be- tween 800 and 1000 pounds are re. .4uired for full-grown cattle and horses to kill.
 "A serious aspect of loco poisoning is that the poison seems to remain in the system. It makes but little differ ence to an animal whether the whole amount is eaten in one season or part in a second or third season.
 "The best treatment of the animals is to remove them from the loco range and give them good feed. If taken in time this will usually prove very effective. In more chronic cases where the animals are worth the trouble a treatment of Fowle's solution with rhorses and strychnine with. cattle has proven very healthful. (See Farmers Bulletin 1054, United States Depart ment of Agriculture.)
 Loco weeds are very easy to de- stroy. The perennial ones require cutting off only two or three inches below the surface of the soil, while with biennial loco all that is necessary is to mow them while in flower"

U. s. SEIZES FOOD
 FROM SWIFT & co.
 VALUED AT $53,OOO.0 co

The first seizure by federal authori- ties of stored goods under the federal food hoarding act in this state was made Saturday by federal agents at Bowie and Douglas. The seizure was made by libel of condemnation, filed in Tucson by the district attorneys office, and was made simultaneously at both places. In each case the goods were owned and stored by Swift & Co., In all, nearly 345,000 cans of food were taken, valued at $53, 900.
 Saturdays seizure, the first in Ari- zona, marks perhaps the governments most decisive step here in the fgh, to reduce the high cost of living. The news that the actual seizure had been made was the first intimation that such step was to be taken by the federal officials in this state.
 Following the filing of the libel al Tucson by Thomas A. Flynn, United States attorney for Arizona, writ ot attachment and monition was issued and placed in the hands of United States Marshal Joe Dillon, whose dep. uties made the seizure. Pursuant to the writ, the vast quantity of canned food was seized in the Swift & Co warehouses at Bowie and Douglas.
 The proceedings of the seizure were had by the United States attorney's office here, and through Assistant At. toney McFalrs office at Tucson, after receiving advices from the attorney general at Washington giving his con currence. The seizure was made un- der Sections and z of the Food Con- trol Act, relating to hoarding.
 In all, 8,663 cases of canned salmon corn and tomatoes were seized, equiv alent to 4,582 cans, with a present value of $53,000. Two thousand, sew en hundred and fifty cases of salmon, or 132, 900 cans, were seized at Doug las, worth $20,000. The goods seized at Bowie consisted of 2,945 cases, or Al ,360 cans of salmon, worth $23, ,000; 919 cases, or 22,056 cans of corn, worth 5000, and 2,049 cases, or 49,- 176 cans of tomatoes, worth $7,0OO.
 The stores of foods at both places were discovered by agents of the de- partment of justice, who are and have been for several weeks, working on the food situation in all parts of the state. According to United States Attorney Flynn, the stocks were ship ped there ip October and November of last year, and although the stock of salmon at Bowie has been in storage practically a year, misleading of de- creasing, it has been increased by 50 cases.
 One of the most remarkable feat ures of the seizure was the fact that although $43,000 worth of salmon was stored in Douglas and Bowie, not a can of salmon could be purchased in the stores at either of the two towns, according to MT. Flynn.
 The next step in the legal proceed ings will come with the appearance in federal court of the defendants to try to prove, if possible, that they were not hoarding. In case the court finds the foods were being hoarded, the goods will be sold, and the pro- ceeds, less costs and damages, turned over to the owners, Swift & Go.
 In the event of the sale of the food, it will be sold in as small lots as pos sible, to prevent any purchaser ob- taining an unduly large supply.

APACHE R. R. REDUCES
 CATTLE FREIGHT RATE

Recent action of the officials of the Apache Railroad in reduction of the freight rates on cattle over that line will be of interest to stockgrowers in this section. At meeting of the officials held in Cooley recently it was decided to reduce freight rates on all live stock over this road, effective the first of the month. The reduction applies between fat sheep and feed CT sheep and between fat cattle and feeder cattle, the lower rate to apply on all shipments:-Holbrook News.

GENTLEMEN IN SHOOTING
 SCRAPE IN PAYS0N SECTION

Word was received here Tuesday that Tom Hubbard and John Bowman and his son Louis had participated in a serious combat at their ranch in the south end of the county, in which Hubbard shot Bowman through the left lung, probably fatally, and Louis Bowman through the right leg. In turn Hubbard was severely cut up with a knife, his arms being nearly severed from his body.
 The bloody conflict was the result of trouble concerning roundup. It seems that the combatants were to round up together, the Bowman's hav- ing notified Hubbard to meet them at designated spot about 20 miles from the Hubbard ranch on Monday, when they would begin the roundup. Hubbard went to the place, where they had agreed to meet and remained all day, Bowman failing to appear. Hubbard then returned home only to find the Bowmans rounding up on his ranch, and upon inquiring why he had been sent to the selected place, he was informed that he had been sent there on purpose as they did not desire his presence. At this, an argument broke out, John Bowman drawing rife on Hubbard while the son caught him around the neck, pulling him off his horse and assisted by his father be- gan attacking him with knife.
 Hubbard managed, in some way, to reach his gun and shot the two men. ssMr. Hubbard is the father of Floyd Hubbard of Winslow. and brother of George Hubbard, who is engaged in the cattle business as a partner of Dr. Bazell and "Bill" Daze.-Winslow Mail.

THE WAY TO BE CURED OF LOVE

"The French" said Dr. Sidney E. Mezes, director of the American Peace delegations experts, fare terrible cyn- ics about love. They don't believe in it's durability. They assert it never lasts.
 1.-Two French poilus were discussing love.
 "T hold,' said the first poilu, that if you fall in love with some ravishing beauty, the only way to cure yourself is to run off,
 "The second poilu took sip of his wine, thoughtfully.
 "'Yes, that'i cure you, all right, he agreed, provided you run off with the ravishing beauty"
