MRS. RUTH HA|GlEN
 DIES OF PNEUMONIA

After an Sllness of less than two weeks, Mrs. Ruth Hanlen of 516 North Eleventh street died last evening at S:30 o'clock from pneumonia. Funeral arrangements have not yet been an nOunced.
 Mrs. Hanlen formerly was an em- ploye of The Arizona Republican, for four years acting as cost accountant in the job department It was while thus engaged that she met and later mar ried Clifford Hanlen, at that time a member of the typographical depart ment of The Republican. The romance was consummated three years ago.
 Of the highest type of young woman hood, Mrs. Hanlen won the respect and admiration of the entire staff from the outset Her marriage to Mir Hanlen, himself one of the most popular mem bers of the mechanical force, further cemented the affection and esteem in which she was held. The sympathy of The Arizona Republican employees as whole is extended to the bereaved hus- band

 Edison did so. The emperor tooi him to his private cabinet-no one else being present-carefully closed all the doors and then besought him to take the marvellous invention apart and explain to him all it's workings This was done. and the inventor was. invited to attend a court reception next day and bring the phonograph with him. Upon this occasion the greai American inventor found the emperor surrounded with a brilliant throng of nobles. each one decorated with the insignia of his rank-Edison calls them dog collars When he produced his mysterious invention the emperor took it in hand. eyed it critically. as though. he had never seen it before; then tool; it apart and explained to the amazed cOurtiers exactly how it performed its wonders.

WAVE 1T EP|DE M|C HAS STRUCK PHOENIX
Increase of 101 Cases of In
 fluenza. Since Saturday Causes Alarm: There Are
 216 Cases In Entire S,itv

With an increase since Saturday of 101 cases of influenza in Phoenix, as reported to the city authorities, the in fluenZa. epidemic is once more causing concern to physicians and officials.
 Latest figures show that there are now PIG cases of influenza in the city, the sudden increase bringing unmis- takable evidence that the recurrence of the disease. which had been anticipated on the heels of the first attack, was here
 The first intimatiOn that the second wave had struck the city came with the activities of the citizens board. Monday. The board was sWamped under multitude of reports late in the afternoon yesterday and the exact ex- tent O the ravases of the returning tide could not be ascertained at the closing hour.
 On Sunday 70 Gases
 When the complete totals were cast up Tuesday it was discovered that there had been 70,new cases develop Sunday and Monday, accompanied by one death. For a time it was believed that the abnormal figures were due to delinquency on the part of two physi- clans who had failed to report all of the patients under their care, on the proper day.
 The returns yesterday, however, went long way towards banishine the hope. During the day 4 new cases were reported. Of this number 41 were reported from the city and six from the rural districts. owing to the large numbr of reports the board is receiving and the difficulty in tracing them, it is impossible to give the proportion of local residents the grand total repre- sents. It is believed, though that the percentage of rural patients is com 1 paratively light.

know that you get milk from a
cow. They think you get it from
a milkman. They think tomatoes
come from can.
But there are cogent truths IN
the science of agriculture which
both New York and Nezperce seem
content to ignore, and which grim
necessity will force us to recog-
nize. We shall find the schooling
less painful if we start the course
at once.
The chemical elements which
make soil fertile are nitrogen, pot
assium, PHOSPHORUS, sulphur, So
dunn. and few others. The pro-
duction of various crops impover-
ishes the soil in proportion to the
quantity of these ingredients
which thew subtract from it.
At the price which tobacco
farmers now paw for fertilizer the
growth of one ton of tobacco takes
from the soil $3.50 worth of nitro
gen, phosporic acid, and potash.
A bushel of wheat deprives the
soil in which it grows of 60 cents
worth of the chemical constituents
which are needed to nourish its
growth. And when a million
bushels of wheat are exported we
export with them 100000 worth
of chemical fertilizer for which
we are not paid. and which in
some form or other finds its way
eventually finds its way into the
soil Of some foreign country which
is thereby enriched while ours is
impoverished.
There are now i'll the United
States less than 100000 square
miles of land waiting to be cult
waited, including all ground not
yet drained or irrigated. When
this is taken up the steady course
of soil exhaustion will be in pro-
gress everywhere, and it will be
a simple problem in arithmetic
now soon we will be agriculturally
bankrupt. Altogether it seems
high time for us to be taking I'M
der consideration the question OF
maintaining the fertility of our
land.
Sugar beets draw chemical
strength from the soil, but beet SUI
gar, after refining. does not con-
tain the ingredients. 1t remains
in the pulp and leaves. That is
why the Germans exported beet
sugar. but returned the pulp to
their own soil as fertilizer. 1t con-
tanned the no,rishing chemicals,
and the fecunditv of the land was
unimpaired.
What they did in Europe we can
do. Hitherto the richness of I'M
tapped resources have enabled us
to neglect those thrifty policies
with which older nations have
been able to prevent the exhaus-
ton to which all cultivated land
is eventually liable. The sooner
we start the work of real conser-
walton the easier we shall find it.

A GOOD JOB.

BY far the greater part Of our
young men coming home from the
war are strong and well. Outdoor
life, plain hearty food. and vigor-
GUS physical exercise have COM
bined to build up their physique.
Many of them who were indoor
workers before the war find that
the abundant vigor they have
gained inspires them toward life
in the open. For men of this in
clination the farms of the country
offer an excellent opportunity.
The working season is on and
the farmers are calling for help.
They are willing to pay wages
that are comparatively high,
when we consider that room and
board are included. Necessary ex-
penses are few. so that a young
man could save nearly all of his
wages. And in the meantime he
is living wholesome life and is
securing a knowledge of practical
farming which in the future may
be of great value to him.
In case he should desire eventu-
ally to buy small farm Of his
own the information which he has
gained about soil and location will
aid him in his selection and pre-
went him from making a poor in
vestment.
We would recommend to the
young man who is doubtful abont
his employment to take into coll
sideration farm work. He will at
least have well paying work for
several months. which will leave
him as "husky" as he is at pres
ent. And by that time there may
be a larger field for employment
of every kind than there is now.

WHO BUILT THE LEAGUE?

A good many people have stul-
titled themselves in their attitude
toward the League of Nations. 1t
seems to be popular with some
just now to say that President
Wilson has betrayed us to the sin
lister politicians of the allies.
1t shows that we have rather
short memories. So far from in
weighing us into compact with
themselves. the allies took rather
backward view of the league when
the subject was preached, and
were subjected to severe criticism
from us for that reason.
When the armistice was signed
President Wilson decided to at
tend the conference From all
parts of the country arose encomi-
ums and adulation, with some
criticism. We were told that the
president had conceived the idea
OF league to prevent future wars,
the noblest program ever framed
in human brain. And he was
going to Europe to shepherd the
other nations into the fold-to
force them into it if they would
not enter willingly. He had for
mulated new policy for the
world.
We claimed. in fact, that the
idea of a league to enforce peace
originated in the superior sagacity
of this country. 1t is rather late
to deny it now. We were the or
iginators of the idea. We wanted
the credit for it and if the scheme
works well (anh, with good
judgment, it may) we deserve the
credit for it.
The allies did not clamor for it.
They simply acquiesced. To OPP
pose the idea would have been
savage. The only reservation
which each nation made was man.
Tested in an umwillingness to ac-
cept any condition inimical to its
own national sovereignty and Sc
curity.
The Enblish were never strong
for it. They saw no sense in op-
posing it, provided it did them no
harm. If it did them and good
they would welcome it. But it
must not affect their naval supre-
macy, or the security of their en-
pire, their colonies and dependen-
cies. Outside of that everything
was alright. 1t was hooray for
the league. They were even kind
enough to write much of the trea-
ty-as a guarantee that it would
not hurt them.
The French said very much the
same thing. If they were taken
care of, they were agreeable The
other powers took much the same
attitude.
They have never taken any 9TH
er view. If we decide now that
the league will operate to our
detriment-that we don't want
one-we will hear no indignant
protest from Europe. We will not
be antagonizing them over there.
They never wanted one, particu-
larly. At all events, they did not
want one very loudly. The Ameri-
can delegates were the ones who
did that.
Hence it is rather late now to
accuse President Wilson of coun-
tenancing an attempt by the al
lies to entrap us into a league
against our interests. Our dele
gates in Paris were demanding
the league. Many in American
were clamoring for it. 1t is of our
own making. or rather we are re-
sponsible for its having been
made.
Inasmuch as the league was lit
orally forced upon the allies, we
can hardly object if they want to
coat the pill with sugar.
