Most of the time since last fall said Mr. Pot tinser, the winter ct Flagstaff and the north had been living up to its full name. There has been more snow there than the oldest old timers ever had seen. At times the roads out of Flagstaff were inn Passable, and there were sleds, sleighs and sleighbells everywhere.
 Tom Mix, taking advantage Of climatic conditions, brought his moving picture outfit there from the coast and spent several days shooting Alaskan scenes, and so life-like were they that the experts will not be able to detect that the scene was laid in sub tropical Ari- zona.
 MT. Pottinser sad that few days ago he met a man from the White River country who told him that there had never before within the memory of white men, been such depth of snow in all that re- zion. If it goes off with a rain, the Roosevelt dam will need side boards 100 feet high to hold it all, he declared.

INSPECTOR BEN, WHO
 ATE THE COW WITH
 THE T|NKERED BRAND

One way to keep track of a COW with a tinkered brand is to eat the COW and save the hide. At least that was the view of Ben Payatt of Casa Grande, inspector for the live stock board.
 In round up near Red Rock last week Payatt discovered a yearling upon which the original brand had ap- parently been run over" The orig inal brand Bar IT. had seemingly been changed into Ear IRE" The former is recorded as the brand of the West Coast Cattle company, the latter is not on record.
 Payatt, having no other way of keep ing the animal from getting lost until he could make an investigation, had it killed and used in camp for beef. saving the hide. The money derived was turned over to the original owners Of the yearing So far. no trace has been found of the ingenious person who altered the mark
 Secretary Stephens of the live stock sanitary board, who attended the round up and made an investigation of pas turage conditions, reports that feed is good in the deep well district north east of Red Rock, but poor to the south- east. in the Empire country. The Vail outfit, he said, had shipped some 400 head into Mexico to pasture, send ing them in under bond. The range between Red Rock and Florence he re- ports fair. but the cold weather fol- lowing the winter rains has prevented the usual development of feed.

SAGE TEA DARKENS
 HAIR ID ANY SHADE
Don't Stay Gray! Here's An Old time Recipe That Anybody
 Can Apply

The use of Sage and Sulphur for restoring faded, gray hair to its natural color dates back to grand mothers time. She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and attractive. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked ap- pearance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect
 But brewing at home is mussy and out of- date. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for bot tie of 'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will get this fa- nous old preparation improved by the addition of other ingredients. which can be depended upon to re- store natural color and beauty to the hair.
 A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so natur- ally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You sim ply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair. taking one strand at q time. By morning the gray hair disap- pears, and after another applica- ton or two, it becomes beautifully dark and glossy.
