DOVE SEASON
 OPEN SEPT. 1

Game Warden Prochaska warns hunters not to disregard the dates of the open season for mourning doves since it does not jibe with the federal law for the protection of migratory birds. The state law permits the kill ing of doves on August 15, but the open season under the federal law does not begin until September l. When the open season under the fed eral law begins later on or ends ear Her than the season under state laws, the federal season must be ob2erved.
 Whitewings, however, are'not under federal protection and the game war den has decided that they may be killed in agricultural districts any time after June 15. Whatever may be said in favor of the whitewing, the farmer knows that he is an expensive pest. Anyone else would know it who would go by field of maize in the lower part of the valley, where they settle by thousands in the fields and strip the heads of maize.
 The mourning dove is not given to such depreciation. He may take slight toll of the fields,' but what he consumes is insignificant.

MEXICAN IS KILLED BY
 FREAK ELECTRIC SHOCK

Ramon M. Garcia, aged 35, was al- most instantly killed while standing in front of the bake oven in his bak- cry at Agua Prieta, opposite the Hotel Moderno. An electrical. storm ac- companied by a heavy rain was in progress at the time and the man was killed either by a stroke of lightning or by current of electricity that en- tered his body through the electric light wire held in his hand. Dr. Bim Smith, who was called immediately following the accident, is inclined to the latter view, as is also Jorge Tato, presidente municipal, who is himself an experienced electrician and who made a personal investigation of the case.

SUDAN GRASS
 FOR ENSILAGE

The Scotch Farms, south of Tue son, are now cutting their Sudan grass for the second time this year. Just as (soon as it is cut the grass is hauled, cut up and placed in a silo.
 The first cutting and the one now being harvested yealded ten tona of !ensilage per acre. Last year four cut tings were obtained on the Scotch Farms, the last cutting being little lighter than the others. Owing to the dry year on the range and scarcity of feed, corn silage sold last year as high as $12.OO per ton, under ordinary conditions it is worth $8 to $9.
 While ensilage made from Sudan grass has not the food value of that made from corn or milo maize, con- tts; ing the ear or head, it will when fed with a small amount of grain or cot O, seed cake, make an excellent feed for bulls, poor cows or weanling calves in winter.
 A crop of Sudan grass can be grown with less water than corn. Many times good crop of Sudan grass can be grown under conditions where corn or milo maize would not make a crop.

ARIZONA COMMISSION URGES
 WAR INSURANCE BE KEPT

"lt is the opinion of this commits sion that each former member of the army or navy holding this type of in- ~surance should retain the same," says an order issued today by the state corporation commission, aimed at pre- venting the use of misrepresenting or undue argument on the part of agents for commercial companes, seeking to have service men transform their fed eral insurance into some other type. The order says:
 Notice is hereby given that this commission will promptly revoke the license of any agent of life insurance company where it is found said agent or company has attempted to dis courage the holder of war risk insur ance or has attempted in any way. to advocate the giving up of said insur- ance."

Up Against It

One day when Matt Wynne, the manager of Churchill Downs Land Atonia, was at the Juarez track he was braced for little coin by man who looked like Mexican but talked like an Irishman.
 "Are you an Irishman or a Mexi- can?" asked Matt.
 "Will, sor," was the reply, "I'm both. Me name is Patrick O'Driscoll Valdez. l have just enough Oirish in me to make me want to fight all the time, sir, an jist enough Mexican in me to get licked all the time" ."SCin- cinnati Enquirer.

Milton Prune Prices o.

lEast oregonian Special. !

| MILTON, Aug. 20.-local prune
prices have experienced collapse"
OF huge proportions within tho past
l4S hours, the market declining from
$l05 per ton on Satul day to $50 on
Monday with practically no sales be-
ing made, Buyers attribute the slump
in prices TO the dumping OF too many
green prunos on the eastern markets.
but well informed growers are sllepti-
sca1 of this.T ~ ~. y f.'t ~ = ? r
They say that not until Tuesday
had any prunes been marketed in the
east due to the fact that the earliest
shipped have been in transit until yes-
terday and could not have reached
their destination before that time.
They attribute the shaved prices to
manipulation OF buyers, made posi-
bic by the federal Investigation of the
high cost of living and to the fact that
southern Idaho prunes. which are the
chief competitors of this valley, are
eaI lier than usual this year and are
just no wcommencing to be shipped.
just now commencing to be shipped
per cent of the valley output of prunes
will be affected by the drop. which is
equivalent TO $40 per ton at least and
$ir per ton was considered n good
price for prunes until three years ago.
Unless the market stiffens which n
good many. anticipate, the loss to this
valley will be at least s75,0Oo.
