STATIONS of Federal
Wheat Grading
u. S. Department Of Agricul-
ture Sends Supervisors at
Governors Request; Work
in Other States; Relation of
Grading to Government
Purchasing.

Washington, D. c., Aug. 6.-At the
telegraphed request Of Governor AL.
len Of Kansas, the United States De
partment of Agriculture, has assign
ed six Federal grain supervisors ia
demonstrate in Kansas the. Govern
ment wheat grading methods. They
will work in cooperation with the
Kansas State grain inspection de-
partment and under the point direc-
ton of that department and the Fe-
deral grain supervisors office at
Kansas City.
1--WE are offering no criticism of
the Federal standards for wheat but
are merely seeking to have them adj
ministered as accurately as possible"
said Governor Allen, who also ex-
pressed the opinion that grading de-
monstrations are needed while the
state is becoming acquainted with the
new grading rules and while there
is SO much wheat Of uncertain grad
es." Governor Allen also suggested
that the Federal grain supervisors
should visit as many local shipping
points as possible to check the grad
ing of the farmers wheat, to explain
to buy E4nd farmers the correct
methods " grading under the new
rules.
Unusual crop conditions due to
weather have increased the import
ance of a correct knowledge Of the
factors entering into the grading Of
Kansas wheat. Grain grading de-
m~onstrations already have been held
by the Departments Bureau of Mar
kets this year in Ohio, Indiana, Iowa.
Nebraska, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tex
as, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Washing

kOSITzkY SAYS
STATE vERCES
on BANKRUPTCY
Auditor Fears That the Last
Three Months of Year Will
Be Chostless..

Bismarck, N. D., Aug. 6.-North
Dakota is skirting the ragged edge Of
bankruptcy, in the opinion of State
Auditor Karl Kositzky, who express
ed the fear that the. last three months
of this year, at least, will witness no
perambulation Of the ghost at the
state house.
The condition of the general fund
is worrying Mr.. Kositzky. August
/, 1916, the balance in the fund was
$3~36,576.05; August l, 1917, it was
$271 ,837.9s; August l, 1919, it was
just $67 ,289.55.
Collections in August, 1918, total
ed $4,000. If the same amount
comes in this month, North Dakota
will still be unable to meet the MONTH
~ allotment due the agricultural COL
lege, declares Mr.. Kositzky, to saw
nothing Of a payroll of some $50, 900
at the capitol and the expenses of
other state institutions.
In August, 1918, expenses paid from
the general fund aggregated more
than 100000. The average monthly
expenditure from this fund has been
$l93,lS5 during the current year, saws
with a large number of new commits
sions and departments "functionine.n
TINS aggregate will be swelled to
100000.
, MI. Kositzky is applying the
orakes where he can. He has refused
to allow the workmen's compensa-
zion commission to draw on the gen.
eral fund for salaries and expenses.
lntlmating that these form a legiti-
mate charge against the working
mems compensation fund. The com
mission was given an appropriation
OF $4,000 by the 10th assembly, and
Commissioner Wehe desires to draw
on that allotment.

O-o-o-o-oh Boy!
 If you didn't get your paper on time this morning, blame it on the pie.
 The annual Republican carriers pie nic was held yesterday and the Phoe- nix pie market was visibly diminished thereby. Although nearly every other form of amusement was indulged in by the pack of bowling and happy ex- cursionists, pie was undoubtedly the main attraction. The theory concern ing the indestructability of matter was blown sky high when the pie eating contest was staged. It would puzzle the most learned scientist in America to try to ascertain how those carriers succeeded in concesling within their belts apparently as much pastry as their entire bulks. Had the bakers who designed those pies with so much care, and who spent so much time in tenderly shaping and baking them. had they only seen with what indesc- cribable speed and accuracy the pie eating contestants demolished the fruits of their labors, they would with out a doubt have applied at once to the representatives at tn epeace con- ference to have a clause inserted in

SHORTAGE IF MORE

 HOMES IN AMERICA

Twenty five representatives of build ng and loan associations. from almost every section of the United States, in a recent conference in Washington. for mulated the following statement on biIilding conditions:
 Tn normal times. under normal con dttiOns. it required the building Of about 600 900 homes per year 10 supply the normal growth Of the country, and replace the losses accustomed by fire and other destructive agencies. For the past two years. owing to causes grow ng out Of the world war, this normal construction of homes has been pray ticallv suspended. What housing con struction has been accomplished. has been for the major part that which vas demanded Co meet war conditions. shortage Of labor and restrictions on Inc use of buildmg material stopped the work
 At this time. there is a shortage of homes m America Of nearly d million. To which must be added the normal re- gWrements Oi the year just opening Most Of the present shortage has not Jeen wholly abandoned. but has been merely postponed and delayed. and the pressure Co inaugurate and complete his delayed construction will shortly 7e felt. as soon as weather and eli matte conditions make such work 'pastble.
 The demobil izatiOn of the military and naval forces now in progress. and The releaCe of workmen from the ship building and munition plants and other var industries, furnishes the supply of ahor which has hampered building for The past two years and the removal Of rcstrictiOns on the use of material and transportation which SO largely con ibuted Co block home construction lll combine Co make the resumption of home building now possible"
 The Division Of Public Works and construction Development.

 But pie wasn't all the food that fell before the youthful appetites at the picnic. Among those present, had anyone energy enough to take a cen sus. would be numbered, sandwiches, pickles, cookies, salads, fruit and ice cream, everyone of which article was there in all the varieties and variations known to mankind. But it was hard to keep the minds of the energetic carriers off the pie. As many pie eat ing contests were staged as there were pies available. If it hadn't been for the fact that the bakeries couldn't kee pup with the pie eaters they would probably be eating pie yet, but as it was. they had to stop after about haif of a dozen contests. The winners of the contests were Kenneth Budd. Richard Babcock, Thomas Pritchard, Stanley Cronin and Kingston Small house. The circulation manager him. self would have won one of the con- tests but he inadvertently got his left fore finger mixed up with his molars in an enthusiastic effort to make the

succulent pastry disappear a little quicker. He lost two strokes of his jaws by that misstep and one of his young competitors beat him to the tape.
 The picnic was held in Echo canyon on the north side of Comeback, where the picnickers were conveyed by a huge truck and trailer, furnished by the Chambers Transfer company To guard against lack of liquid refresn- ments with which to ease the progress of the pie eaters, several large milk cans, furnished by the Farmers Co operative Creamery company, were carried along filled with sparkling Adams ale.
 To offer an aid to digestion, after their stomachs had been imposed upon by so much pie, the picnickers ad- journed to the top of old Comeback. They went oil over the poor brute and gave him a rigid inspection for flaws. None were discovered, so the gang descended and indulged in a few games and sports, after which they motor trucked back to Phoenix, where they all arrived safely with the exception of minor cases of numbness in the

CITY ID HONOR THE
 HERO MEMBERS OF
 FRENCH ARMY BAND

French Army band, arrived in the city Sunday morning to complete arrange ments with William Conrad Mills, who is tomanage the concert here on next Monday night, February r, when this famous band of wounded soldier -musi- clans will be the honor guests of Phoe- nix.
 In talking with MT. Bell, much Of in terest was learned concerning these hereoes of the trenches. who. being too severely wounded. were released from active service by the French govern ment last summer that they might come to America tofurther aid the al- lied cause by playing for the Liberty loan and other win-the-war work.
 When the srmistice was signed. the French band was demobilized and or dered to return 10 France. but, through the French high commission, they ob- tained permission to remain in America for three montbs that they might make tour of Americas principal cities, giving concerts with two objects in view. to further cement the cordial relationship betwee nthe two republics and that they might raise a fund for their Foyer du Soldat. which is the home for French wounded soldiers.
 -h1ANtoh AutAlDfH Ol Lnt DdnO. with one or two exceptions, is stin in histwenties, each man is the possessor of croix de guerre, received for bravery under fire. Not only are they proven heroes. but each member of the band holds a diploma from the Paris Conservatoire of Music, while several are first prize winners of this famous school of music. There are six solo mu- sicians, including M. True and M De bruille, pianist and violinist, who made their debut only two weeks since at Carnegie hall, New York, creating a sensation with their duets and solo numbers. Then there is Captain Fer nand Pollain. conductor of the band who. until it's departure for France. was cello soloist of the Paris Sym phony orchestra which so recently toured America
 One point that Mir. Bell expressed in particular was to impress upon the public that this Is not a band in the ordinary sense. but an organization ef symphony concert musicians of the very highest order
 Plans are now being arranged hy various civic and social clubs of phoe- nix 10 give these honored guests a re- ceptSn of heartiest welcome when they arrive here Monday morning at S:55 o'clock from Fl Paso. A tour of the city and valley by auto and a well come from the mayor and governor all reary have been arranged for.
 The sale of seats opens this morn ing at the Central Pharmacy and indi- cations already point to a capacity audience at the high school auditorium Monday night.
