Attempt to Rob Store?

Stratford Courier: Last Thursday
morning one of the windows in the
basement doors of the Stratford Mer.
camille company's store was found to
have been broken out some time during
the night. A strict search failed to
disclose, that any Of the merchandise
had been taken so it is not known
whether an attempt had been made to
break into the store or not. However,
it would be wise for merchants to bar-
ricade all outside doors and especially
those leading into their Easements.

Care Needed in Storing Coal.

With the government advising lay
ing in the next falls coal supply at
once there is need of a little warning
in the storing Of it. w. G. Faber, act
ing director of the engineering extern
sion department of Iowa State col
lege offers the following information to
those who contemplate such action.
"Coal losses says Mr.. Faber, are
generally due to loss of heating value
dine TO oxidation, Stacking or breaking
up into fine particles which cannot DC
burned satisfactorily, and also to spon'
taneous combustion.
..The oxidation loss is M that can
not he stopped, but it does no go on
very rapidly. Stacking can be over
come by storing the coal inside a dry
place and by getting a larger size Goa
than is desired for use. Then If il
does break up it can still be disable
without much loss. The less dust thert
is in coal the less the chance OF spon'
taneous combustion. If coal is plied
the spreading of Jumps throughout viii
help keep the air out. Never store
coa! when wet and keep wind from
striking it # possible. DO not put ven
tilating pipes in coal piles as they H.
more harm than good.
IF coal shows any signs OF heat'n;
spread it out until it coOls and Their re
nile. For the small storage bins there
is not mucl. danger if ordinary care il
taken"

Safeguarding Naval Stores.

Prices of naval stores are to- day much higher than ever be- fore in the history of the indus try. For both the producer and. the user, therefore, unusual inn portance attaches to the use of the most advanced and econom- ical methods of stilling, gluing. coopering, weighing, and grad ing. Specialists in the bureau of Chemistry, United States De- partment of Agriculture, there fore urges producers to exercise the greatest possible care in keeping gum clean before dis tilling, to prevent losses of tur- pentine by evaporation, to use we'll made and uniform rosin barrels to prevent loss in hand ling, and to see that the rosin is weighed and graded with the utmost care.

 LAND FOR 1OMESTEADS

At the meeting of the w. F. I. A. on February 28, the ques- tion of grazing homesteads for those on the National Forest will be considered. If you are interested in the matter come to the meeting. This will ne- cessitate an action of Congress but the matter can be done if attempted in the right way. The law desired by those who have discussed it. is that the home steader on the National Forest Reserve be allowed the same rights on grazing land as home steaders off the Reserve.

Little Madeline Kennedy is ex- pected to live


 Little Madeline Kennedy, IS months old, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Patrick Kennedy who live on a farm north of Maine, has been narrowly saved from death. It was two weeks ago 1ast-Thursday that she was se- verely burned by flaming hot cottoline. For three days she remained unconscious from shock and then as the little life began to show signs of return ing, peritonitis and ulcer of the bowels developed as complica- tions. At this point Dr. Melick, the attending physician, gave up all hope of saving the little child, for, as he states. he never knew so small child to recov- CT from these ailments before. To Mrs. Reinhart, the nurse to whose home the little child had been rushed. belongs the great est credit for saving this little life. Except for her constant vigil day and night without an hour off for two weeks, coupled with her expert care, death would have claimed this little one. While not vet beyond all danger, the little girl is now confidently expected to live.
 The accident which brought such tragic results, occurred as Mrs. Kennedy attempted to lift flaming hot pail of cottoline from the stove. at her home. The bottom dropped out of the pail and the grease now in flames. poured over the head and shoulders of the baby. Mrs. Kennedy was badly burned, aI- so. To put out the flames burn ing the baby, she showed the girl, head-foremost into a bar rel of water. The baby was then rushed to town.
 Dr. Melick was called to the Canyon on Wednesday morning to attend a number of railroad men who were severely ill with colds. He also visited an In dian woman who had been very low with pneumonia. for over a. week. This woman had de- pended entirely upon tourist doctorss. for medical attention. There had been one or more of these at the Canyon each day during her sickness.

LIVESTOCK AND RANGERE- PORT. NORTH ARIZ. & N. M.

According to reports of the Weather Bureau the weather of the past week has been fav- orable to both stock and ranges over the entire district. Mild temperatures characterized the early part of he week, followed at the close by rain and snow both in Arizona and New Mex ico. The heaviest rainfall oc- cured in the north-central dis tricts, amounts approximating one and one half inches falling at Pinedale, Prescott and Will Hams. Heavy snow is reported at high elevations in the White Mountain Indian Reservation but none below 5000 feet. Stock are doing we'll in that sec ton. Although grass has de- terioated somewhat in the Pinto district, Apache County, stock are holding up well, winter an- nuals contributing considerably to their feed. In the Jerome section streams that usually do not begin to flow until March are flowing freely. Not only if there a good supply of forage on the desert ranges but the wa ter supply is much greater than usual. In past winters it has been necessary to haul water to sheep pasturing there but water holes this season are we'll filled. Sheep shearing commenced in the Congres Junction section during the week.

GOOD REPORT FROM
 THE WILLIAMS LIBRARY

From all reports, the Will Hams Public>library was never in better hands than it is now under the management of MT. and Mrs. Enfred Johnson. A larger number of fines have been collected by them than by any previous managers, and a larger number of books are be- ng taken out and read than at any previous time-652 being taken out last week. Every thing at the library is kept so neat and orderly that it is a pleasure to call there and read.
 Many people wish to see new books in the library, and there is great need of a bed and some other furnishings at the ibrarv. but there are no funds for any of these. If every public spir- tied citizen in Williams wauld join the association at the small cost of one dollar the funds. would then be available. Are you a member?

INTERESTING MEETING OF
 LITERARY DEPARTMENT

The Literary Department of
 the Woman's Club met at the
 home of Mrs. Morris Young last Tuesday afternoon, at 2 80 o'clock with fourteen present.
 Mrs. Roberta Spain, Mrs. Sine.
 Mrs. Root and Mrs. Reid gave most comprehensive talks on Immigration. There was a discussion afterward on skilled and unskilled labor and the pos sible influence upon the county of immigrants from southern Europe as compared with those from northern Europe. This fact was brought out, that up until 1880, 90 per cent of our immigrants were from northern Europe, while since that time 75 per cent have. been from the southern part of Europe.
 In commenting on the i'm portance of these discussions Mrs. Cureton, head of the Liter ary Department, said, Those
 V11O cIA 11OC CoNduGdS0 of this course are missing an opportunity for enlightening themselves on the subject of Americanization. This country is destined to do missionary work on a large scale and be- come the melting pot of all nations. It is a law of nature that the people from densely populated countries will flow into countries sparsely populat- ed. It has been so since the beginning of history. There fore complete restriction of i'm is impossible. If this course in Americanization has no more result than the incen- tive to broaden reading on this subject, we will have accom- pihed our mission. It lies with the women of the country to help decide momentous ques- tions now before our country"
