MRS. PAUL TELLS OF POLITICAL
 DRIFT TO REPUBLICAN CAUSE

"It's all over but the shooting was the comment on the political sit uation made last night by Mrs. Alfred Paul, chairman of the republican ways and means committee for Co., chise county. Mir. and Mrs. Paul yes terday morning returned from an ab- sence of nearly a month, during which time they visited Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Washington, At lanta, New Orleans and intervening cities.
 The outlook for republican success in November is splendid, Mrs. Paul said, passing her opinion on converse tions she had with scores of people of every political faith in the cities wis ited. While the trend for Harding is pronounced in the east and middle west, Mrs. Paul said that even in the south one finds many democrats who plan to shatter the political traditions of a lifetime and this year vote the national republican ticket.

ARIZONA NOMINATION
 CONTESTANT ASKS TO LOOK OVER BALLOTS

Supplementing his contest proceed ings involving the democratic nomin- ation for secretary of state of Ari- zona, Charles DeSales Wheeler, of Phoenix, petitioned the superior court at Phoenix for an order granting him an inspection of ballots cast in the state primary election, September ', last, in Yavapai, Navajo, Apache, Ora ham and Yuma counties, and particu- larly those cast in Yavapai county. The petition asserted Wheeler could not prepare his case for trial proper ly without such an inspection. On the basis of the official canvass. Harry S. Ross had been certified as democratic nominee with Wheeler in second place by several hundred votes. In filing contest proceedings in the. su- perior court recently, Wheeler alleg- ed errors had been committed in counting, tabulating and canvassing returns.

COPPER VERDE NEWS MOVES
 PLANT IN DAY AND HALF

Moving a newspaper plant, whether it be on Park Row or in a western mining town, is not child's play and when accomplished successfully is not only a relief to the personnel of the sheet but something which justly may be considered with pride by all con cerned.
 The Verde Copper News has just emerged from such an experience. Moving day came on Saturday. The paper was "put to bed" early, with everything "boiled down" so that four pages held the days news and adver- Using. The business houses of the town co-operated by not asking for changes in their advertisements for that day.
 The move was to place just around the corner. As soon as the last pa per of the Saturday edition WIS off the task began. The remainder of that day and all of Sunday, presses type cabinets, turtles, composing ma chimes, desks and loads of other equip ments were to be seen enroute.
 The new location afforded twice as much space, bn. all worked hard to get the plan. ready to operate in time to issue Mondays paper.

BURTON CLEARS UP THE
 DR. PERRIN STATEMENT

That Governor Campbell was mis- informed by Dr. K. B. Perrin as to the alleged payment by Charles E. Bur ton, of thousand dollars to J. H. Moeur to secure leases on state lands was the substance of two formal statements here by Dr. Perrin and MT. Burton, the latter saying Dr. Per rim had supplied him with his state ment. MT. Burton said he was con- fident Governor Campbell had acted with no intention of using erroneous and declared he would support Governor Campbell as he had always done
 Dr. Perrin's statement said in part: "'his is to certify that when MT. Bur tc n told me that young Mir. Moeur was ir his employ, did not understand or know that Mir. Hildreth was in his employ, and now that MT. Burton as- s'lres me that he gave no check to young MT. Moeur, that he only paid MT. Hildreth, l feel that l should say to MT. Burton that I may have been mistaken in having told Governor Campbell that he, MT. Burton, had told me that he had paid one thousand dol- lars to young Moeur, this one thous- and being the sum that to the best of my recollection MT. Burton said had been paid"
 After reviewing the case, MT. Bur ton said
 "Gov. Campbell, as am told, has publicly said that furnished the in formation I had paid MT. Moeur one or the other of the sums mentioned, for the purpose of securing lease on state lands. He based this assertion, as l am informed he said, upon what another person told him. Governor Campbell is not only friend of mine, but one whose friendship l greatly cherish and most cordially recipro- cate. I therefore deeply regret that he has been imposed on by false state ments made to him, and also regret that either Mir. Moeur or myself should be the innocent sufferer from imposition. I, of course, appreciate that Governor Campbell has acted in entirely good faith in proceeding up- on the misrepresentations made to him, and I am glad to know that in the fairness which always distinguish es him, now upon learning the facts, he is setting forth the matter in it's true light"

Plain, old everyday protection facts: Coconino County has vast area of old Mother Earth that's rich with fine timber, good grass. We'll, strip of country about 200 miles long and 50 miles wide that can most of it be farm ed, inhabited by an old settlement of Twentieth Century People who have most all lived there all of their lives, but foreign to their state-yes, county seat except by days of journey or core spondence.
 Now, MT. Arizona, Coconino County, Flagstaff Voter-Let's go from here. There are just four things to do: CD Elect Marian to the State Senate. (2) Marian will get from our $500, ,00O,-
 00000 state taxable values money
 to build the road north of the Colo
 rado river.
 (3) Marian will see that Uncle Sam's
 attention is called to the fact that a
 bridge across the Colorado, and a
 road through the Indian reserva-
 tion should be built, by Him. (4) Coconino County can build one
 third of the road, say to the Little

LEARN OF WHEAT VARIETIES
Result of Comprehensive Survey Made
by United States Department
of Agriculture.

For the first time in the history of
wheat growing in America 1t will soon
be possible to map the distribution of
wheat varieties and 10 learn the large
number of names under which the
same varieties are known in different
parts of the country. This result has
been made possible by comprehensive
survey of varieties made by the United
States department of agriculture,
through the bureau of plant industry
and the bureau of crop estimates work
ing in cooperation. Schedules were
sent to about $4,000 crop reporters to
determine the distribution of wheat
varieties, the source from which they
came, the date of their Introduction
into the community. the percentage
which each represents of the total
wheat acreage in the community. The
returned schedules have been studied
and about thousand letters of in,
Quiry have been sent asking for add,
tional information and samples.

fly when once 1t takes possession of a
crop Of wheat, Grain that is so heav-
lily infested as to afford little promise
OF profitable yield should be deeply
plowed down and lightly narrowed as
early in the spring as is practicable.
This should be done by March /, if
possible, SO as to bury the Stubbe and
prevent large part of the flies from
issuing and rpinfeSting other fields OF
growing wheat or barley. The land
may then be planted to oats, corn or
other immune, quickgrowing crops.
so as to avoid a complete loss of profit
from the land during the current year
How to Fight the Fly.
The methods for combating the Hes
Sian fly are, in brief, as follows:
l. Practice crop rotation. Do not
sow wheat on stubble if 1t is possible
to avoid doing so.
.. Plow under all infested stubble,
where possible, soon after harvest.
3. Destroy all volunteer wheat by
narrowing. disklng blowing or some
other method.
4. Plow all land to be sOwn to wheat
as early and deeply as existing condi-
lions permit, and prepare a thoroughly
pulyeriZed and compacted seeded.
5. Conserve moisture against a pc
riOd Of drought at seeding time.
6. Use good seed.
