 FAvORS ROTATION

We believe that the successful farmer will hold on to the best of his dairy herd regardless of the present price of cotton. Dairy prod ucts are becoming very scarce all ready in our valley. We are now shipping in large amount of dairy products which does not look good to us. This being the greatest dairy country on earth we hope to see each farmer culi his herd and commence now to build better herd and thereby building for the future on a more solid foundation. Having the future prosperity of the valley at heart we know we must keep the good old dairy COW.

DIARIES NEEDED
 VERY MUCH HERE

There is nothing more vital to the Glendale district than crop rotation, according to George w. Protzman of the Glendale Lumber company, a lead CT in business enterprises there, and man who Is thoroughly conversant with conditions throughout the district.
 The best sign of propSerity accord ing to MT. Pitcher is a large number Of well kept ranches. In a one crop country this is seldom to be found, but ir q district where the crops are judi ciously rotated, prosperity is always evident.
 J1e is absolutely in favor of more dairy cows being kept on the ranches of the valley, and is doing everything in his power to spread the propaganda Of crop rotation.

THE USUAL THING

There is a man in our town whose family name is Legion Who night and day keeps up a wall about this dad blamed region. And when he takes a trip away and visits other cities He flouts them to their faces and con demns, despises, pities; And brags about his native burg, until they rise and tell him That if hedoesn't hush his prate they'll boot him out, expel him. Then when he reaches home again he starts his usual chatter; Those other towns were Edens all; at home here what's the matter? Thus he keeps kicking all his life (And sometimes he's a woman) And always will. The reason is that he is just a human

There is nothing more desirable to tne people of this district than a large number of dairy cows'' said A. c. Pill cheF or Glendale, a leading citizen and businessman of that town.
 We nave all realized for some time past the the disappearance of the COW mas left great untitled want among the ranchers. There is no doubt that the ranches will deteriorate if only one crop IS raised. It is too much like putting all of ones eggs in a single Iasket, and we are all longing for the cay 10 come when every rancher in the valley will keep at least a few dairy cows"

British Government Watches
Export of Munitions.

LONDON, Oct. 16-The British gov
ernment not only is aware fully of the
steady accumulation of munitions. but is
watching the shipments item by item
and knows the extent and every detail
of ammunition exports from England to
Japan.
Information to this effect was obtained
today on inquiry in high official quar-
ters in regard to many sensational re-
ports and rumors in circulation of late
about the Japanese policy of storing up
an immense volume of war material
There have heen extensive shipments
of munitions from this country to ia
pan, it was learned from an authorita-
tive Whitehall source, but 1t was made
clear to the correspondent that the gov
eminent has registered no objection to
these exports, nor intends interference
with them in any way.
The general view taken in official cir
cles is that these Japanese orders ar,
coming at a time when the British mn
nitions trade is facing difficulties as a
result of the natural slump after the I'M
precedented war business.
The shipments to Japan are bringing
4 welcome fow Of money into England.
France shares the British attitude
for French munitions plants, too, have
been receiving large orders from Japan.
