Bees Move 10000 Tons.

The honey crop Of the United States
for 1918 having been estimated by the
department Of agriculture at about
250,000,OO0 pounds, the American b.
tanist estimates that as the nectar
Of flowers does not become honey un.
til worked over and partly evaporated
the bees must move as much as 150,-
900 tons of material to produce this
crop, exclusive of the honey eaten by
themselves. OF this product, about
one-half ls from the nectar of white
clover, with two other leguminous
plants-alfalfa and sweet clover-as
the next important sources.

RABBIT SKIN FOR LEATHER
Possibility That Tanning Process Has
Been Discovered That Will
Solve Big Problem.

AT present In Annonay, France, an
earnest effort is being made to intro
duce rabbit skin leather In shoe max
ing. Annonay Is in the valley of the
Rhone, just south Of Lyons. 1t was
there, about rs years ago, that chem
list devised tanning process in which
the hair was removed from the pelt
of rabbit without damage to the
skin. Previously no one had been able
TO remove the hair without injuring
the pelt.
The chemist had his process tried
out for a short time, but it did not
prove to be a commercial success and
the rabbit-skin shoe came to be only
memory. Less than ten years ago
some Germans got hold of the old
chemists formula and began to manu-
facture rabbit. leather.
AT one Of the industrial eXpositions
In Germany in 1909 there was a display
of 25O styles of shoes made of rabbit
skins. The exhibition won first prize
In the department of footwear. Now
the French have taken up the work Of
the old chemist Of Annonay and are
manufacturing shoes out of rabbit
pells.

thing that a lovesick soldier usually
does-wrote her sweet little letter

that a real romance might start? This
was her answer:

MANKlND'S DEBT TO THE DOG
"NobIer Animal" Owes to His
Faithful ServtDr.

We have been accustomed lately to
think of dogs, as also most other
things in terms of war; but our debt
to the dog dates back to very many
centuries before the black year of
1914. Dogs are our oldest friends of
the animal world, and it is believed
that since the time man began to do
mesticate them, they have made more
rapid strides in intelligence than we
have ourselves.
The day may dawn when we seek to
preserve all living things through al
truism, but that day Is long distant.
A writer in London Answers observes
dogs have survived to the tune of over
IT'S different species, because they are
useful. AS shepherds, Scotch collies
are cheaper and more effective than
the average human being. Pointers
and settlers are used with the gun.
Other varieties are employed as pro-
tectors and comrades; while the err
rands Of mercy achieved by st. Der.
nards are known to the world. A st,
Bernard that died a few years ago
won a medal for saving twenty-five
lives.
But when a dog ceases to he of use
to us it falls on evil days. The orig
tnal bull dog was invaluable to man
In handling cattle. When fences were
invented the bull dog began to de.
cline, and the present day bull terrier,
used as a pet, marks a phase tnat Is
very likely leading toward extinction.

He'll see where we go and probably
bomb us tonight"

STANDARD OIL COMPANY
 TO ENTER GLENDALE FIELD

GLENDALE. Dec. IA new in dustry is soon to be added to the bnsi- ness life of Glendale, when the Stan dard Oil company, now arranging to enter this field, completes US plans for distributing plant to be con structed on a site purchased by the company and lying between the old cotton gin and stock yards.
 According to the Phoenix office of the company, the oil concern will es- tablish distributing plant in Glen dale that will care for all surrounding territory and the north part of the ccuntq, Some live storage tanks will be erected at once with the necessary warehouses, office buildings and ga rage. A number of tank trucks and delivery trucks will be put ntU opera ton also, the entire investment here representing an outlay, according to District Sales Manager Ferguson, of some $60,000 to $75D00.
 This will make Glendale district in dependent of the horrible road condi- tions on Grand avenue, between here and Phoenix, which, in many instances in the past, have prevented the trucks of the oil companies from making de- liveries in this district.

GOVERNMENT IS AFTER
 THE BRIGHT ANGEL IRA

FLAGSTAFF, Dec. 17.-George E. Goodwin of Washington. D. C., general engineer of the national parks, was in Flagstaff Monday and spent much of the time with County Supervisor c. T. Woolfolk in discussing the pur- chase by the government of the Bright Angel trail. at Grand Canyon.
 MT. Goodwin had two tentative propositions for the board of super visors to consider. One was the pur- chase of the trail by the government for ST, ,11S. The trail during the last five years has netted the county the equivalent of 4 per cent on an invest ment of that amount. In case the county accepted that proposition. there would be no strings attached to the manner in which it should spend the other money The other proposi- tion was that the government pay $100.000 for the trail the county agree ing to devote that money to the con struction of the proposed new high way from Maine to Grand Canyon.
 The matter will be considered by the supervisors at their leisure and after discussion with many of the business men and voters of the county
