 Want Change in Arithmetics
 The question not only inv.1ves the how muchneSs' of the coming SIds, and the 'moduS operandi'' for making the payments applying thereto but It brings up the paramount question of finding the cash to meet the antici- pated extreme. costs that are fore- seen. The board members say that the good will of the attorney general can be counted upon to meet in some way the real emergency that exists, ana for which no regular statute can be made to apply. but they are fearful lest the anticipated good will of the state auditor proves unable to make two dollars grow where one dollar grew before. It is easier, they say, to get a favorable interpretation of law than it is to get an equally favor able interpretation of the dollars that exist in the state treasury
 Superintendent Case says that very little will be decided at tomorrow's meeting as the considerations of the bids probably will constitute the days work, but that the board will continue to meet daily for several days this week A particular demand for a change in arithmetics is said to be under consideration by the board.
 Four Contracts to Expire
 As the state law specifically limits the board to changing only one book per grade per year, change of arith- metics in all the grades would auto maticalIy preclude any other changes. The existing contracts for SeOgraphies, arithmeticss spoilers and histories, are all running out at the same time. May 15. and it is admitted quite freely that something will just have to be done Superintendent Case and all the rest of the board who have been inter viewed are mum about what will hap pen, opinions are scarcer than school kids on a circus day but there is no denial of the fact that the ssate of Arizona is in a jam. The superin- tendant holds that the present situa -e ton is due to no fault of the board, but that it is due to the states laws. that are still in formative stage and that are being worked over and inn proved at every session of the legisla- ture.

BRIDGE REPAIRS. ID bE MADE BY. EMERGENCY FUND.
Governor To Make Appro-
 priation By Proclamation Used To Restore Tempe
 and Agua Fria Structures

Governor Thomas E. Campbell is due to issue special proclamation in the near future to cover the diversion of state funds within the amount of $350,00O for making repairs on the Tempe and Agua F'ria bridges made necessary by act of God,'' according to announcement by the governors of- flee yesterday.
 As no specific procedure for appro- priating money from the governors $350.000 emergency fund is outlined in the state laws, the governor called upon Attorney General Wiley F. Jones for an opinion thereon and the attorney general advised him yesterday to the effect that inasmuch as the emergency fund existed by law for emergency usage 1t could be drawn upon by yir- tue of a governors proclamation under the great seal of the state and that such proclamation would constitute sufficient warrant for the state audi tor to honor the appropriation.
 The Tempe bridge is said by the gov ernor to be in immediate need of costly repairs, one pier of the bridge having become sufficiently unstable to imperil the structure and the safety of pas sengers thereon, and no funds exist in the regular channels for defraying the cost of the reconstruction work. The Agua Fria bridge requires T. new spans to replace the. spans carried away in the llOOi oI laSt IhaHhSSlNiHS udy anu in the flood of a short time ago. No regular funds exist for the costly re- construction work required on the Agua Fria bridge
 Acting upon the advice of the attor- ney general the governor has in structed State Engineer Thomas Mad dock to report soon practicable O.. the probable cost for the two re- construction jobs in order that proc lamation can be issued without further delay. Immediately after the procla ma ation is issued the state engineer is expected to begin the reconstruction work. some of which may or may not be hampered by the markets inability to supply certain needed materials.

fore the state board of education good and hard right now, and it will be answered to some extent tomorrow noon, when the board meets at the capitol to open the annual bids. Or dinarilly according to Superintendent C. O. Case, the book bill would amount to about S70.00o, but the present ex- treme high cost of paper and other factors of the present time are caus- ing the board particular concern.
 The situation is said to be so ex- tremely acute the board hates to think about it, and certainly the board IS not discussing anything. Not only the average S70,000 expenditure, which might be s100,000 this time, is 10 be considered, but a whole mass or old book contracts is running out on May 15. after five years of peace, and the board is entirely at a loss to foresee what will happen then. There IS no process of law for renewing those contracts. and if the attorney general finds way to sanction the ursentiy required renewal, there will still De the book firms to reckon with, and those firms can be counted upon to say something about the high cost or

METHODS AND EGG STORAGE
 TOPICS AT MEETING

Brooding methods. egg storage in the Salt River valley and. prospects for the year were topics at the monthly meet ing of the Maricopa county poultry as- sociation held at the Phoenix chamber of commerce yeSterday.
 Cooperation by the association with farm bureaus was urged in every w>y $, that the members might get all the benefits due them. Prof. F. R. Ken ney department of agriculture, uni versity of Arizona. spoke on the methods of brooding telling of the sue cess which had followed the use Of the radiator as against the fireless brooder, at the university. He gave recipes for arresting canibalism among little chicks suggesting pine tar for the sores of those afflicted and as preventive a proper ration of beer scrap shells and bran for one day. gradually reducing the quantity of this mixture each day, supplying the diff ference with common chicken feeds
 F. Draper, former president Of the association, told of the success which the egg men had had in storage in the valley. He said that by holding back eggs at cheap periods of the mar ket the grower can realize handsomely. regardless of the expense of storing. He said storage had a tendency to inn prove the general market.
 It was decided to hold the next meet ing March 27, subject to the notice as to hour and place of the president, M. E. Bemis This is two weeks hence and it is possible that for the season at least the meetings will be held every other week instead of monthly. Charles F. Heath the secretary, and others made the proposal that meetings be held more frequently.

5OO AR|zONANS TO
 ATTEND CONVENTION

Approximately 500 Arizona good roads boosters are due to meet at Hot Springs. Ark, from April 12 to IT with the United States Good Roads conven- tion. according to the governors an nouncement yesterday, and list of the 800 Arizonans is in course of prepara- ton by him. The list will be made up of delegates from every county in the state.
 The convention is said to be the one great national highway convention of the year, similar to the convention that was held in 1919 at Mineral Springs, Tex. Judging by the number of Ari- Zona delegates who attended the 1919 convention the governor believes that very large percentage of the 800 Ari- zona delegates for 1920 will attend the coming meeting.
