Farm Bureau Notes

Flies RepeIents

The best one we know of is
plenty of good COW feed.
Several experiment stations have
carried out trial to indicate the
value of the various prepara-
tions that have been used for
kee ing flies off the cows. They
Indicate that the falling off in
milk and butter fat due to flies
is greatly exaggerated by COM
panies putting out these prepar-
ations. The trials seem to in
dicate that the cause of this
great reduction in milk and but
ter fat is on account of lack of
feed. 1t often happens that
during a heated season pastures
are short and dry and cows will
actu lily come home of an even
ing hungry. They have put in
the heated portion of the day
day standing or lying in the
shade especially when there is
nothing but weeds for them to
eat. 1t has been found that
where the cows are well fed
during the heated season especi-
ally with silage that there is
very little failing off in milk and
butter fat, and results seem to
indicate that one of the great
virtues in fly repellents is to
keep the cows quieter during
milking time. When one has a
COW barn that they can darken
and hang gunny sacks in the
door way the gunny sacks will
brush the flies off pretty we'll as
the cows go thru. Then with
some gunny sack blankets that
will very thoroughly cover
the cows reaching on both sides
reaching almost to the ground
makes about the most satisfac-
tory plan that we know of to
keep the cows quiet during milk
ing time. Flies are worse in
wet seasons due to the fact that
the Matching or breeding occurs
in manures. Manures in pas
lures are kept moist and this
will give the horn fly especially
a chance tc become very num-
erous.
The preparation commoly used
consists of some of the cold tar
dips with fish oil and pine tar
mixed in. Sometimes these in
gradients are placed in kerosene
emulsion which is made by dis
solving one pound of laundry
soap in a gallon of water and
while this solution is hot pour in
about one half gallon of kero.

oughly so far as to make an

are then mixed and a common
hand spray is used,

Wheat Grading

The schedule for grading
wheat was carried out on time
but the first meeting was held
at Mendon during the violent
rain storm. This made it i'm
possible for farmers to make the
dates but we had an opportun-
ity to give a very thorough
demonstration to the managers
of the elevators. We believe
that with the start made those
who have wheat to sell will soon
begin to see the value Of know
ing more about how wheat is
graded. Daylight saving rules

the l.50 hour.

KAYENTA NOTES

We expect spring sometime next fall, as it showed and was blizzardy yesterday. We had the worst. winter ever known in these parts. Even the ancient photographs of the people of long ago do not leave any record of such a winter! We never knew that the Arctic Circle crossed Arizona before. As result of the severe win ter and deep snow many Indian horses and much other stock have per ished. The Indians had the flu very badly here last fall, but are now over it completely, and we hope its adver- tised return will fail to materialize.
 Some weeks ago MT. A. Bradley, who conducted trading store 20 miles southeast of here, was found dead in bed by Indians who had come to trade at his store. They at once advised the people here, and the fol- lowing parties went from here in J. Buckbee's auto to investigate the re- port: Mir. and Mrs. John Wetherill, C.. Caldwell, J. Buckbee and A. B. Rea- gan, principal of the Indian boarding school. They arrived at the store at about 8 p. m., where MT. Bradley lived alone, and found him dead as re- ported. After close examination it was decided that he had died peace

SGT. CRAVENS GIVES
 A LEG; WHAT WILL
 YOU GIVE TO HELP?

Sergeant Herman Robert Gravens, who comes to this city on the Victory Liberty loan trophy train, is one of those Americans who helped to carve the name of the American marines deep in the history of the world. He fought at Chateau Thierry and lost a leg there. He is not complaining, but expects to continue to pay his share of the cost of the world war for the remainder of his life.
 Eight thousand marines went into action in that famous battle. Six thousand of the original 5000 were sent back as casualties during the first 15 days of the engagement. Fate decreed that Gravens was not to be one of those incapacitated at the front.
 During those 15 days the tide of the German onIush not only was halted, but the Huns were hurled back. It was one continuous attack, yet Gra- vens was unscratched.
 Finally the order came to give over that section of the front to other troops. When Gravens had reached a point nearly two miles in the rear, he was overtaken by shell from one of the German big guns.
 Craven says: q didn't lose my leg; l gave it and gave it freely, as did other Americans who like me lost limbs in the fight for democracy" He will tell the story to the people in ll5 Southwestern cities during the. 29 days that the Victory Liberty loan trophy train is touring the country in the interest of the coming loan.
 This famous train will reach Flag staff April 30, at 8 p. m., according to the present schedule.

WEEKLY KANSAS CITY
 STOCK MARKET REPORT

KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS April l4.-New high record prices were paid for hogs today, $20.75, or 5 cents above the extreme top last week, and 10 cents above the 1918 top recorded in September. The cattle market averaged about steady with some weakness in beef cattle, and stronger prices for stockers and feed CTS. Sheep were 10 to 15 cents higher with demand fairly active.
 Today's Receipts
 Arrivals today were 14,000 cattle, 15,000 and 10000. This was a de- crease of 5000 cattle, 5000 and ,0OO sheep compared with a week ago. There were fewer northwest but more Oklahoma and Kansas cattle here than a week ago. Stock pigs were in liberal supply. A trainload of Cali fornia sheep added materially to the bovine supply.
 Beef Cattle
 Receipts of cattle fat enough for killers was sufficient for immediate requirements and trade was dull with prices weak. Heavy weight grades were rather scarce and fully steady, but the bulk of the offerings were in the 900 and l 100 pound class, and they sold slowly. Killers say that heavy steers will be scarce the entire sea son. Choice to prime steers are quot ed at SIS to $19.25, medium to good at $15.00 to s17.75, and common to fair at $13.00 to $500. Western steers including Utah, Idaho and Col orado, sold at SIS to ST. Cows and heifers were quoted steady. Fat cows sold at $500 to $15.O0. Gamers and cutters were in slow demand at $4.25 to S7.50. Veal calves brought $9.00 to $14.00.
 StOckers and Feeders

ful, natural death--probably of hear, failure. He was 70 years old. He was twice married to Indian women one of whom, Sue Bradley, survives him. He also has son living by eac.. woman-Frank Bradley, now in the U. s. artillery overseas in France, and Lee Bradley, pupil in the Albuquer- que Indian school. The party burie the body the next day, March 27. They also took an inventory of the stock and took the money and pawns with them to Kayenta, where same was turned over to the principal of the Marsh Pass school, waiting action of the probate court. The store was locked and left in charge of Sue Bradley, the surviving wife, who re- turned from an extended visit the day after his death. On the way home the party broke down with the auto and had to walk in.
 March 30, MT. Sampson of Gallop was here looking after his interests in the Bradley store. He had brought load of flour, which disappeared quicker than snowfall in torrid sun. He said the trip over the noun tains was fierce and the snow was still waist deep.
 On account of the unprecedented winter all the stores are entirely out of supphes-flour, sugar and coffee are as scarce as live mastodans. We hear that some is now on the way.
 Mr. c. Caldwell, of the firm of Wetherill & Caldwell, started March 31 for Pennington, N. M, on busi- ness trip, expecting to return about the 10th of this month.

was larger than for some time past, and the Eastern outlet for feeders diminished. Feeders are quoted at $11.00 to $16.25, stockers S9.50' to $15.75, stock cows and heifers $75O to $13.75.
 Hogs Higher Than Ever Before
 Hog prices are now higher than ever before and the Kansas City mar ket is the highest on the Western cir cult. The top price in Kansas City today was $2075 and in Chicago $20.65. Kansas City is the high mar ket because Kansas and Missouri were short on corn and fewer fat hogs will come from these two states than in the same period last year. .The bulk of the hogs today sold at $2010 to S20.60 Light weights brought S19.50 to $20.50 and pigs $15.O to $19.25. More than 5000 pigs were included in the days supply Of 15,000 hogs.
 Sheep and Lambs Go Up
 The general market was 10 to 15 cents higher with the trade active Western lambs sold at $500 to S2O.50 and California shorn wethers sold up to $16.00 and ewes $15.50, with some 65-pound spring lambs at $500. The stock and feeding sheep were in mod crate supply.

 Mr. and Mrs. Wetherill and J. Buck. bee, of the respective stores here started on a months trip on business to Gallop, March 31, via Pennington by auto, going the roundabout way on account of the snow in the noun tains. MT. Buckbee will visit Flag staff while out.
 Leigh Segar, our missionary, with Noah's horses, started to Talcheco on March 26, on a trip which consume weeks. Stockman John Strous ac- companied him as far as Tuba City going through the pass they had to shovel snow. 1t took them week to reach Tuba.

WAR WAS CHEAP IF YOU BELIEVE
 MONEY EXPERTS
Treasury Statisticians Figure U. s. Paid 33c a Day Per
 Man to Beat Germany

It cost MT. American Citizen just thirty-three and one-half cents day to wage the war.
 This Is what the statisticians of the Treasury Department at Washington figure the cost of the war to be for each man, woman and child in the United States, and from that they deduct that the individual in this conn., try had an easy time of it in financing this country's part in the great world struggle.
 As nearly as can be estimated the total cost of the war in money to the American people from the declaration ,f hostilities April 6. 1917. until the signing of the armistice November II, 1918, amounted to twenty-six billion iollars. The Census Bureau on Janu. iry l, 1919. set the population of he United States at approximately t04, ,000. 900 people. From April 6, 1917, intil November II, 1919, is GAO days. The Treasury experts made two simple divisions and found-America paid thirty.three and one-half cents per ,apita per day for'the war.
 The twenty billion dollars used m the estimate of the cost of the war included the amount to be raised by the Victory Loan. This final loan it was pointed out by the government officials will go fin large part to paying for supplies ordered for the army before the cessation of hostilities and for the expense of demobilizing our wartime military forces, both of which must be counted as war expenses.

POINTS THE WAY
The Statement of This Jerome Resi- dent Will Interest Our Readers.

Our neighboring town, Jerome, points the way in the words of one of its most respected residents:
 Thos. A. Miller, manager of furni- ture store, Box No. 295, Jerome, Ariz., says: "Doan's Kidney Pills are the only kidney medicine l can de- pend upon and they certainly are a great remedy. My kidneys were in a bad way. I have seen the time when l could hardly bend, and when l did, it felt as though the muscles of my back snapped. Many time, my sight would become blurred and there seem- ed to be a black screen before my eyes and evrything seemed to be whirling around When I got out of bed mornings, felt tired; just as if I hadn't had any sleep. A friend, knowing what bad shape I was in told me about Doan's Kidney Pills and I used them. In very short time I felt fine"
