ORDERS FOR NATIONWIDE
 FARM STRIKE BY BARRETT

Following a conference of the Na- tional Board of Farm Organizations, Charles s. Barrett, president of tie National Farmers Union, issued call for strike of farmers throughout the country, demanding that they hold their products, particularly cotton and wheat, for higher prices. In his call Mr. Barrett said:
 "The time has come for action. The government has failed us and we now ask government officials to stop talking price declines and give us a chance to help ourselves.
 q have positive information that worlds wheat situation is such that even slight holding movement among American farmers will lift the price of wheat. l know that the world cannot much longer go without southern cotton. Within few months we will have them begging us for cotton and wheat.
 "The farmers of the country have been driven to this drastic step to save themselves. The federal reserve board would do nothing. The pres ent price of cotton and wheat is so far under the cost of production that it would bankrupt most southern farm CTS and merchants for us to sell them! Those who have loaned money on cot ton production can and must allow the farmer time extension"

RAID FOR LIQUORS
 MADE AT GLOBE

Ten gallons of "white mule," a gasoline oil stove, corn grinders and other paraphenalia requisite to the distillation of the high-proof and high-priced product of Arizona's corn fields, constituted the net results of a raid by deputy sheriffs Friday night on a house on Skyland Terrace. in Globe. The raided house sits on lev eled place on the side hill. After careful search, the officers found a blind door, covered with wall paper, which opened into a small tunnel into the hill, where the illicit "booze" was discovered. The wall paper had been cut to conform to the outlines of the door leading into the cave, in such a careful manner as to render its de- tection very difficult.
 A woman, sole occupant of the house at the time of the raid, dis claimed all knowledge of the "cache" in the rear of her home. The officers are looking for her husband in order to give him the opportunity "to ex- plain" Up to date, he has not been located.

HOW V0LSTEAD ACT ACTS
 WOULDN'T IT FUSS YOU

There shall be wailing and gnash- ing of teeth among many local resi- dents who have been total abstainers perforce, and not from choice, when they hear under the latest interpreta- tion of the Volstead Act, as given out by I. L. Nihill, deputy collector of in ternal revenue, at Phoenix, the head of family who has properly regis tered may make 200 gallons (of the fruit juice variety) for his own family use and without the payment of any tax thereon.
 If he makes more than 200 gallons he must give bond, and pay tax on the excess.
 The above, according to the mim- eograph from the office of the com missioner of internal revenue, is sub- ject to the limitations by T. D. 2765. It is enough to cause 2765 "D. ITS" just to think about it.
 To quote more fully: "Cider made and used in the home, is not subject to tax under the internal revenue laws, but grape and other fruit juices, not including cider, if fermented to the point where they contain one-half of one per cent or more of alcohol by volume, even though not intoxicating
 are subject to tax under the revenue act of 1913, as wine. All persons producing fruit juice other than cider, containing one-half of one per cent or more of alcohol by volume are required to register
 All you gotta do is register, in &C., cordance with the delimium tremens above mentioned. And if you don't want to make more than 200 gallons, which is enough for any normal head of normal family, you don't have to pay any tax, as witness the following
 Subject to the limitations indicat- ed by T. D. 2765, the head of a fam fly may make 200 gallons exclusively for family use without payment of a tax thereon. If he makes more than 200 gallons he must give bond and pay tax on the excess. If such excess amount is intoxicating, double the or dinary tax due (as provided by some more T. D.'s.)
 It is all very simple unless there is joker somewhere in T. D. 2765. By calling on I. L. Nihill or by obtaining copy of the federal act those who are sufficiently interested may inform themselves more fully.
 Last but not least there is the state law to consider. It seems that under the federal law a lead of family may make all the wine he wants for his personal use, but as far as is known the state law contains no T. D. 2765.

STABS ANOTHER, THEN TRIES
 TO TAKE OWN LIFE

His only avenue of escape blocked by an armed man after he had mur- derously assaulted Petrono Perez, Jose Alcolo, a Mexican cotton picker, turned his weapon, a long -bladed knife upon himself and calmly plunged the dagger-like instrument into his breast. The double crime was enacted on the O. H. Pierce ranch, three and one-half miles west of the state fair grounds on the Christy road, about II o'clock Sunday morning.
 Both men are now in the Sisters hospital, near death. Perez was stab bed more than a half dozen times, once in the back, once in the right arm and several times in the chest. The chest wounds, however, were not ser ious.
 Alcolo, in his attempt to cheat the law, held the weapon over his left breast with the left hand while he hit it with his right. Twice he drove the blade into his body, but missed the heart both times. His condition is critical.

poison, if poison it was, and Mrs. Lu- zon ejected the bitter food before it had any effect on her. The food was destroyed. Later in the month the Luzons were again away from home and when they returned they again found the bitter stuff in their food. MT. Luzon made an examination of the coffee and found crystals that re- sembled the crystals of strychnine. He brought the coffee to Kingman and had a test made on the crystals and found that they were really strychnine. All the food in the home had been plentifully sprinkled with the poison. As Luzon had been threatened, so he alleges, by the Ia tums he caused their arrest and they are being held under bond for the hearing that is to come before the court next Tuesday.

YOUNG CYCLONE HITS
 COUNTRY NEAR PHOENIX

Four persons were injured, one se- viously, when tornado swept the Litchfeld-Marinette district, 16 miles west of Phoenix, late Saturday. The injured were brought to a hospital here. They were Mrs. Sadie Haynes, severely injured about the head by flying timbers, and her three children, R. F. Haynes, Russell Haynes and Muriel Haynes, all with body injuries. The tornado, approaching from the south, swept path about half a mile wide, observers said. Houses were unroofed in Litchfield, most of them small structures. Minor damage was also reported about Marinette. The Haynes home, partly wrecked by the storm, was four miles north of Litch- field. There were no other reports of persons injured.

LIVESTOCK AND
 RANGES IN ARIZONA
} -++++**+++++*+++i < 1

Photographic and mail reports to the weather bureau indicate that on Tues day morning one to ten inches of soft snow lay on the ground in northern Yavapai and southern Coconino and Navajo counties and that moderate to heavy rains had fallen in other por- tions of the major grazing sections of the state. Range conditions have i'm proved and the water supply has been replenished. The grazing examiner of the Coronado forest kindly reports with respect to conditions in that for est as follows:
 "Over three of the divisions of the Coronado forest feed conditions are good; over four divisions they are poor; and one they are fair. The fol- lowing list gives the condition on each unit; Tumacacori, Santa Rita, Hua- chuca, good; Whetstone, fair; Dra- goons, Catalinas, Rincons, Chirica- haus, poor. Over the entire forest cattle are in good shape and where feed is good they will winter without abnormal losses; where feed is fair they will do all right if there is an average growth of spring feed; where feed is short it looks as though losses will be pretty heavy unless we have an exceptionally good winter. Some of the stockmen are anticipating loss es and are making preparations to feed and to ship to ranges where feed is plentiful. Sales are very slow; there is limited market for fat stuff locally and at good prices"
 Crop Progress in Arizona.
 Good weather previous to the rain and snow of Saturday was taken ad- vantage of by northern farmers in digging potatoes and storing to be ac- cessible to market; since storm roads are bad and little hauling has been done. Cotton picking was interrupt ed but slightly and no damage done except locally where winds were high. Shortage of labor is being felt rather keenly at present. Citrus harvest made good progress during the week.

THE WOOL MARKET

The wool trade is waiting, pending renewed buying on greater confidence on the part of both manufacturers and dealers. Trading continues quiet, sales being mostly in small lots and at very low prices. The reopening of the government wool auctions is not attracting particular attention in the trade, as the offerings are AS to 46s and below, the catalogue having evi- dently been made up with special ref erence to the needs of carpet mills. Further declines are reported to have been made in prices, though all values are nominal, lacking sales in sufficient volume to establish the market. Amer jeans bought moderately of the best wools at the second Sydney auction. Bradford is also reported to have op- erated to some extent. Current trade discussion turns on tariff possibilities, an embargo having been dismissed as mpracticable.-Bradstreets Report.
