OFFICIAL BALLOT
 FORMS ARE READY

The forms for the official ballot con- taining the tickets for the coming pri- mary election on September have been compiled by Clarence L. Stand age, clerk of the board of supervisors, assisted by Misses Miriam Grau and Sue Fauley, and are now ready for the printer It is thought by MT. Standage that the ballots will be ready for dis tribution among the precincts in a few days.
 Each of the tickets will be on a separate ballot, and then there will be a blank ballot containing no names. The name or number of the precinct will be printed on each ballot with the candidates for the various offices. The number of ballots printed for each pre- cinct will be two times the highest number of votes cast in that precinct in the last election for a candidate Several sample ballots for the instruc- tfon of voters will be printed for each one and a number of ballots containing each of the tickets will be printed on cloth. These will be posted in promi- nent places in each precinct for the inspection of voters
 The state ticket on each of the bal lots, Republican and Democratic, will be the same in every precinct, as will the county offices, and ballots sent to each of the precincts will have only the names of the candidates for pre- cinct offices in that precinct on it. The blank ballot will contain no names, but spaces are provided on it for the insertion of names by the voter.

to make preparations to keep the seed, as they will find it valuable.
 The manufacture of brooms from the product was demonstrated by MT. Crlbbs and his assistants at the fac tory yesterday. The corn first is taken rom the bale and dyed. This is done by lmmersing the bundles in a tank of anll1ne dye dissolved in water. The corn, which is of a straw co!or when It comes from the fields. becomes a natural pea green when immersed in the bath. After being soaked it is placed i'll rack to dry and then taken to the bleaching room. where 1t is left over night in the fumes of smouldering birthstone. which sets the color.
 Make Ten Kinds of Brooms
 After the bleaching process the corn IS placed in sorting tables where it is sorted seven times according to quail lty- The local plant is making eight brands of parlor brooms-Apex, Black Beauty, Gold Nugget. Miss Grace, Lit tie Dot. Council, Durable and F'atry-3 smelter broom. which is the largest broom made here and which is adapt ed to heavy work. and a warehouse broom. The shelter broom is made or broom corn and Louisiana hickory, bound with three strands of wire. This broom weighs from 10 to Al pounds to the dozen. and the warehouse broom, which is stitched, weighs from 34 to 36 pounds.
 From the sorting tables the corn goes to a table where the chief sorter selects from it the "hucI, O. straw for the outside of each grade of broom. which is distributed by him to the winders. This work requires constant vigilance and knowledge of the crop and the purposes for winch each broom is intended. Before the "hurls" are distributed. however, the chief sorter cuts it to the proper length and scrapes it in a special machine which removes the seeds. After being scraped the corn is shook" which brings all the 'straws of the same length together.
 The straw is now ready to go the winders. of which the factory has four, and where it is bound to the handles. These are of Washington fir, although yther woods may be used. Washington fir, however. is used by the Phoenix factory because it is light and strong and assures the buyer that the weight of the finished broom comes from the straw in it and not from the wood.

In addi- ton. according to MT. Gibbs, there is a steady market for the corn, which he Illustrated yesterday by declaring that he could dispose of 100 carloads of broom corn now, if he had them, as quickly as he could notify eastern buyers.

coarse corn is first bound to the wood by wire wrapped under a high tension. Particular attention is paid to the work of having the wire as tight as possible, so that the straw cannot be- come loose and fall off, and as con sequence of this care about 12 per cent of the handles are broken under the strain.
 Finishing Up the Article
 As the straw is tied to the handle mart of it is devoted to "turnovers," which are handfuls of straw tied to the main bundle in the wrong direction, or along the handle and then turned down over the wire so as to lie with the bundle This gives a shoulder to tbe broom and inSureS its symmetry. The shaping of the finished article Is also helped by "pounder, and Tn in strument which IS used 10 force the straw into place. Then the inside and outside "hurls, are put on, and the straw is scraped again to take off any seeds that may have remained after the first process.
 The broom is now ready for stitch ing, which is done in rapidly nov ing machine which does as clean a job aS a seamstress. After stitching the ends of the strongs are cut away, the straw is trimmed to shape, the wrap per is put on and the broom IS ready for use.
 Although the Arizona Broom Manu- featuring company has been in busi- ness here for less than a year, 1t has already become a substantial and sol idly established firm It employs IS people during the winter season, when the demand is greatest, and is ship ping it's product to all parts of Ari- zona. to southern California, New Mexico and West Texas. The largest sale made by the company since its establishment here was that of car load of brooms to Fl Paso. Extensions .of the plant and an increase in the number of workers in the near future is contemplated.

CLOSE BIDS MONDAY
 IN INDUSTRIAL ARTS
 SCHOOL BUILDING

Sealed bids on the industrial arts building, one of the three new build ings to be erected as units of the Phoenix Union high school, will be received from contractors until to- morrow. Daniel F. Jantzen, principal of the school announced, yesterday. Action on the bids, it is understood, will be taken in the near future, prob ably as soon as a majority of the mem bers of the board of trustees return from their summer vacations.
 Bids for the construction and for the heating and plumbing of the indus trial arts building were advertised for Aug. ', with Monday, Aug. 23, set as the last day for submitting bids. De- tails as to the actual cost of the build ing and the time it will be finished will not be known until after the con- tract has been let.
 The industrial arts building is one of the three new high school buildings for the erection of which bond is- sue of $500.000 was voted some time ago. It is the first of the buildings on which bids have been advertised for.
 Bids on the construction of the sec ond building of the three, the liberal arts building, will be advertised for this week, it was said yesterday, while proposals on the gymnasium, the third building, will be asked for later.
 The construction of the three new high school buildings was made neces- sary by the rapid growth in enrolment of the local high school, the accommo- dations of which last year were insuf- ficient for the more than 1900 students enrolled. The enrolment this year Is expected to be considerably larger. Ii it hoped to have the industrial and liberal arts buildings ready for oc- cupancy by the end of the school year

BOOSTED ARIZONA
 WHILE IN VACAT ION

Harry l.. Shedd, booster extraordi- nary for Phoenix, the Salt River valley and Arizona, returned yesterday from month away from the city, during which time he visited his old home in Minnesota and various other cities in the middle west and southwest. That MT. Shedd let the St. Paul people know that Arizona was on the map IS evidenced by the following from the St. Paul Pioneer Press:
 Arizona soon will be ranged among leading cotton production states de- spite popular belief that about half the state consists of arid sands, according to Harry l.. Shedd of Phoenix, Ar,z, who is a visitor in St. Paul.
 "'Arizona cotton growers this year will market 100000 900 worth of cot ton, as compared with $22, 2,000,00 last year. he said.
 MT. Shedd said that in the Salt River valley, which :s the chief cot ton producing area, 1S0,0OO out of 250,- 900 acres, irrigated from the Roosevelt dam, are devoted to cotton"
 MT. Shedd carried many photographs of Phoenix and of the big industries in the valley with him and many people were surprised at the agricultural rich ness of state which many believed was almost entirely a desert.

John Hedenskoy, fisherman of
the Alaska Packers association,

circuit court held that while the
law was constitutional the men and
not the association should pay the

A disposition to approve the
claims for $4,000 each presented
to the war department by Adjutant

atives of Edward G. Scot and Clyde
r. Dindinger of Marshfieid and
Ralph Fraley, is indicated in infor-
nation just received by the adju-
tant general.
All three men members of the
coast artillery units of the Oregon

government in its war risk insur-
ance. In the communication just
received from the war department
| it is stated that an opinion has been
requested of the judge advocate gen
eral as to whether the claims can
be paid out of war risk insurance
funds. If not, it is stated, 1t Will
be necessary to ask congress for
special act permitting the payment
of the claims. In that event. Ad1u-
tant General white states, the ore
gon delegation will be asked to use
