He showed his teeth which is a sign
of anger in the forest and walked into

himself and walked away, thinking of
what a good feast he would have for

Tinker Bob had listened carefully
to what was said and he knew there
was danger ahead for Lady Duck. He
knew also, because he had the Stone

He hurried away to tell the story

he could offer advice because he had
dealt with %. Postum and Major Pole

ARIZONA ID GET
 ROAD EQUIPMENT
 ASG|FT FROM Us.

PHOENIX, May s. Arizona prob ably will receive free from the federal government more highway equipment than now is owned in the entire state by the highway department and the counties combined said State Engineer Maddock tonight.
 The equipment will consist of trucks and trailers, tractors, graders, scrapers, etc, office equipment of all sorts, surveying instruments and other class of supplies said Maddock.
 The equipment is that purchased by the War Department for use during hostilities, which now will not be needed on a peace-time basis and it's distribution to the various states on the same basis as the allotment of federal aid funds, was authorized by an amendment to the post office bill.
 For this reason" continued the state engineer. this department is not making expenditures for equipment and I have written to the various county highway commissions suggest ing that they limit their purchases oi | equipment and thus have more money available for actual road construc tion."

THE COPPER SITUATION

Purchases of copper by domestic consumers last week were light. It is estimated that total sales by produc CTS thus far in April have been rather under than over 20,00O, ,0O0 pounds and with the present attitude of consum- CTS there seems small reason to antici- pate that total April sales will be over 25,000,OO0 pounds, or about one-third of what they were in March. It is pointed out. however, that domestic smelling is not averaging much if any over 100, 0,000,000 pounds a month, and as purchases made during the first three months aggregated 150,000,000 pounds, additional purchases of 25,- 000,0 pounds this month would fully meet home requirements. Some al lowance must be made, however, for export sales.
 It is clearly evident that domestic consumers are adverse to anticipate future requirements. They are buy ing only enough copper from week to week to cover sales of manufactured material. Early last week, one or two additional lots were sold for export, but in the last few days export inqui- ries have either been withdrawn or exporters have reduced their bidding price.
 Although some of the large produc- ing interests have shown no anxiety to make sales some of the smaller pro- ducing interests have been willing to make concessions to attract buyers and at least one large producer, late l in the week, made overtures to buy CTS, practically offering electrolytic | copper at 1925 cents per pound for early shipment. Other producers were seeking business at 1857 1-2 cents. Nc change was made in the asking prices for lake or for casting copper, which grades were quoted at 1850 ani F cents respectively, but there was not enough inquiry to seriously test the market. (American Metal Market April 21.)
 Walker in Boston says: What has 1 happened in copper proves conclusive ly that prices have nothing to do witt ability to find a market at the present
 time. The demand for steel is rela
 lively better than the demand fol copper, although steel is still selling far above pre-war prices. Construc tive operations are required to make a market for copper, and as yet build ing has not been resumed to any eX tent either in this country or abroad The market is a waiting one, there fore, and it must continue inactive until redajustment has gone sufficient ly far to bring about resumption o
 industrial expansion in one or more ol the worlds countries. (Americar Metal Market, April 22)
 Stocks of copper in the United States today total approximately
 1900, 100000 pounds. There are ir Europe stocks of copper owned by the governments of France and England and by large users of copper in those countries, totaling 650, 900, 900 pounds Together the total amount of unmar keted copper now for sale reaches more than two billion pounds.
