TRAVELETTE
By Niksah RUSINIA

There is a new country under the sun with a government modelled upon that of the United States Its name is Rusinia, and it is situated in the very midst of that part of Europe which went to pieces like a hit clay pigeon, and is just now fitting itself together again with political boun- daries along the lines of the cracks.
 Rusinia is a narrow strip of coun- try with Ukrainia on one of its long sides and Hugary on the other. At the southeast end is Rumania and at the northwest end is CZecho- Slovakia. There are within it's bounds about a million people, mostly of Slavic blood, formerly ruled by Austria Hungary. Its capital is Uzhorod.
 It was because of the presence of an American citizen in this city of Uz- horod at a psychological moment that Rusinia is setting up in this chaotic corner of the world a government that follows the precepts of Washington and Jefferson.
 Gregory Usonhovitch was an Amer ican lawyer who had been trained in the United States and who had prac- ticed in Pittsburg. His parents had come from this part of the world and he went to visit the ancestral haunts, about the time the people of Uzhorod and the surrounding country decided to carve out a free country for them selves. None of the new nations roundabout seemed to be laying very strong claim to them. They would be free.
 But they did not have very definite ideas as to just what sort of govern ment they wanted. Many of them had relatives who had gone to the United States and who had written home glowing letters of the land of freedom. While their impressions of the big country across the sea were favorable, 1 their ideas of how to cut themselves out a little nation by the U. S. pattern were very hay. But Gregory Uson- l hovitch, the American lawyer, was l there and knew the constitution by heart and all about the American scheme of government He furnished the facts upon which the western idea of democracy was planted in strangs soil

MATTRESS FACTORY
 UNIQUE AMONG TIE
 LOCAL ENTERPRISES

The busiest little factory in Phoenix is nothing more nor less than a mat tress factory Probably the greater portion of those who live in the valley were unaware such an institution ex- isted. It does, by all means it does, and in common with every larger in stitution it is enjoying a shortage of labor and a demand for it's products greater than it can supply.
 The w. E. Ingraham Mattress Manufacturing company is the name under which this unique place oper- ates. It is located in the heart of the cotton ginning district on South Sev- enth street, and is more than worth the effort a visit would cost
 In spite of the fact that every per son in Phoenix is supposed to sleep on mattress, 99 out of 100 haven't the slightest idea how they are made. The first surprising thing is that all mat tresses whether they are made in | Phoenix or New York city are made | by hand. There is no improved ma- chinery, which can make mattress made in a big city any better thar one made in Phoenix.
 l Ingraham, who has been making mattresses since he was large enough to stand along side of one, has but recently come to Phoenix from Phila- delphia, where for F years he manu- factured every mattress sold in the store of John Manamaker. MT. h. graham knows mattresses, knows how many a certain number of people will require, and above all he is confident in his ability to make the best mat tress ever used by the people of this state to rest their tired bodies.
 According to Ingraham, he can sell 20 times as many mattresses as he can make right here in Arizona. His en- tire product is put on the market ir Phoenix and this state, the major DOT Htion being sold in the valley
 Fifty mattresses day is the present maximum production of the factory Everything about the mattresses is either grown in the valley or made ir the factory. Nothing but the cleanest of material goes into the produci from Ingraham's factory. He secures cotton and linters fresh from the gins near by, thus cutting out a large iten lof expense attached to transportation From 35 to 40 pounds of cotton goes into each mattress, the better the stock used in stuffing the mattresse; the less amount used.
 A peculiar thing about the making O mattresses is that the cord used 1T sewing them, is not only put in b1 hand, but the squares thus created arr measured by the eye Not a singl
 piece of machinery is used in the sew
 ing, with the exception of a sewinl
 machine used to fasten up the stuffini inside. Ii is an exceedingly interest ing process used in the manufactur of a mattress, and a visit 10 the " ; E. Ingraham Mattress Manufacturing

BULL WEEV|L CAME
 IN, BUT T LASTED
 VERY SHORT TIME

The menace of the boil weevil can not be too greatly emphasized accord ing to Herbert B. Atha, president of the Arizona Egyptian Cotton company. Neither can precautions against it's in- troduction to the valley, be too com prehensiVe. Not that there is any im- mediate scare or that the boil weeyil is on the verge of jumping over the fence into the valley, but the danger is always in the offing according to Ethe pioneer cotton man of the valley
 MT. Atha, who grew the first crop of cotton in the valley, erected the first gin near Phoenix and is the organizer of the first cotton company handling the crop of others in a big way, is heart and soul behind the fight to keep the boil weevil out of the valley. He realizes all too well how easy it will be for the little pest to introduce his unwefcome self, and also realizes the blank ruin which will stare every grower in the face, if the entrance is effected.
 1 In connection with the inadvertant introduction of the boil weevil, Mir Atha stated this week during the course of an interview, that he had | once been the means of nearly ruin- ing the valley for future cotton grow ing. In fact he at one time unknow ingly had in his possession a package of cotton seed, sent him from Egypt which was badly affected with the pink boil weevil.
 The seed was sent to him as a pres ent to be used for experimental pur- poses. The discovery of the weevi was made by accident. He had not opened the package to examine it. He ! happened to meet Dr. Morrill,, state lentomologist on the street, and men, toned to him that he had the package of seed, and asked his opinion of it Dr. Morrill, was interested and re- quested Mir. Atha to let him make ar examination
 MT. Atha sent the package to the state entomologist's office, and was amazed when a report was sent hin that the seed was positively infested with pink boil weevil MT. Atha smiled in recollection, following his narrative of the narrow escape, an( only casually mentioned that seed weevil and all were consigned to fiery furnace.
 Another instance of the accidenta Introduction of the weevil has hap pehed within the past few months Considerable of tlfe machinery used il several of the valley gins was sen here from Florida. where the bol weeyil has forced the cotton men ou of business. A shipment of machiner, arriving in Phoenix contained bo, of seed. and this seed proved upon in spection to be badly infected. It wa only prompt work on the part of tn authorities, that prevented it's spread.
 According to Mir. Atha the figh against the pest is being conducted b, the government on a large scale. Smal armies of men are busy in some in fected districts attempting to stam out the tiny insect.
 Mir Atha urges that all shipments o seed, if they do happen to com through the mail be turned over to tn state entomologist for a thorough in spection. It is vitally important t everyone in the valley, that infecte seed be kept far away, and it is onl by securing the seed from authorize sources that this end will be attained
