FAVOR THROUGH MAIN ROADS
Motortrucks Expected to Play Promi. nent Part in Transportation
 Facilities.

England is now debating roads for motor transportation, for, although she is amply equipped with railroads, 1t Is believed that hereafter motor trucks will play a prominent part in the business of the country. Systems of special highways are being mapped out, and the plans proposed include an apparently excellent feature. To avoid the delays and congestion incl dent on traversing towns, 1t is sug- gested that the main road be located beyond the borders of the town, and this would certainly expedite traffic, as it would not be necessary for every vehicle using the route to painfully thread its way through every village on the way. Of course this would not appeal to the local tradesman who hopes to catch an occasional penny from the passing cars, nor to the local magistrate who inf1ates his own in- como, and the funds of his town, by his interpretation of the law; but this is a matter of national interest and not to be restricted by petty local con. siderations.-Scientifc American.

catch-as-catch-can domino players that with the proper elbow room should set the world afire.
 Kingman now stands with "Nine Straight" wins and one defeat. Not bad at that. This gives the highest per centage of any team in Northern Arizona. Flagstaff has several gam es to win before she can claim the honors.
 The Wildcats came near going back there for game on the third as there was $500 purse to be played for but inasmuch as Kingman could not break faith with Needles and Oatman which teams they are scheduled to play here tomorrow and next day, they had to pass it up. However all, the fans will enjoy seeing the return game with Flagstaff here on the 18th.

IMPROVING KING ROAD DRAG
Found Too Weak for Work in Penn- syivania and Strengthened by
 Wrought Iron Strips.

The old form of King road drag was merely two sides of a split log, fast ened so that the sharp sides of the split surface faced forward, the straight surface extending vertically; the two parts were spaced about two feet apart and connected by struts to hold them parallel; the outfit was dragged by chain, fastened to the front half-log, and the angle at which the contrivance was dragged over the surface was controlled by the manner in which the team was hitched to the chain. the chain itself being fastened permanently at both ends to two sta ples in the front log, which altered the angle at which the team was hitched, writes l.. Ruppin of Pennsylvania in Rural New Yorker.
 "We found the original form too weak for our road work here, so we de vised certain improvements, which are

RAY HARRIS NOW
 AT McGILL, NEVADA

Ray D. Harris, editor of the Mo have Daily Miner during 1917, is now
 at the Broken Hills mine, at McGill, Nevada, where he is largely interest ed in the promotion of that property.
 Since leaving Kingman Harris was associated for a year with George Graham Rice in the publication of that gentleman's market letter, later going into one of the large daily newspapers and finally associating himself with a mining brokerage and engineering firm. He became interested in the mining game in Nevada and is in a fair way to realize something from his investments. He was formerly inter ested in Nevada mines, but was let out of the big game and has a suit in the Utah courts covering his claims to mining interests with foster fath-

LIVESTOCK AND RANGES
 IN NORTHERN ARIZONA

Summer showers, ranging from light to heavy, have set in over the
 ranges and much better conditions prevail, according to latest reports to the Weather Bureau. In the north eastern section where pastures had dried and were without nutriment heavy showers have fallen replenish- ing the water supply and refreshing vegetation to a marked degree; stock are already showing great improve ment. More than an inch rainfall oc- cured at Pinedale and that part of Navajo County is showing marked improvement in feed, water and con- ditlon of stock. While showers have been light and more rain needed near the Mexican border telegraphic in- formation from the Douglas district is to the effect that the condition of stock is the best in years. Although the spring was dry on the Fort Apache Indian Reservation the ground was so thoroughly saturated with moisture that feed has continued good and both stock and range look well.
 Crop Progress in Arizona.
 Affected by the warm humid wealth ed of the past week cotton has made the most rapid development of the season. Not only has it's growth been rapid but natural as weather condi- tions did not invite over irrigation as did the week previous. Plants are fruiting freely. Cantaloupe vines are bearing more fruit than usual this season there being a full crop of crown, second and third fruit. Last season crown blossoms did not fruit. Shipments from the Salt River Valley begin today. Owing to the late spring crops over the State are not as far ad. vanced as usual but as there is an abundance of moisture in the soil veg citation will continue to do we'll until the arrival of summer rains. As in- dicated earlier in the season the peach crop will be small but apples were in jured only slightly by the late frosts.

POLLING KANAB
 CREEK WATERS

Residents of Fredonia, a town sit uated on Kanab wash, the dividing line between Mohave and Coconino counties in the northern strip, have complained to the attorney general of Arizona that people living in Kane county, Utah, are using Kanab wash as a dumping ground for all kinds of carrion, poluting the waters that come down that arroya so that they can not be used. On representation to the Utah authorities information has been received that no further cause for complaint may hereafter be had from that section, the Kane county people agreeing not to dump offen- sive material into the wash.

 Monday at the same hour we play Oatman again. The Oatman boys have lost four games to Kingman this year and are coming back with no in-

tentions of losing this time.
 Both games will be we'll worth see

Kingman was asked at Flagstaff last Sunday who the best pitcher was that they had batted against this sea- son and they answered, Kelly, who pitched for San Bernardino last Sun day.
 When Kelly went back to the coast he was drafted into the All-Stars who were made up to play the celebrated White Sox, that aggregation of black faces which has cleaned up everything in the semi-pro line around Los An geles. Here is what the Herald says of the game:
 "Joe Pirrone's All-6tar baseball team broke the winning streak of the Los Angeles White Sox club in a game played yesterday afternoon on the latter's ground by a score of 8 to 0.
 Kelly, on the mound for the All Stars, held the Sox heavy hitters to four bingles and had the contest in hand at all stages.
 The Kingman batteres rapped out 8 hits on Kelly when he was here.

While the Kingman Wildcats were getting theirs in Flagstaff last Sundayj one of the most interesting games of the season was played on the local grounds by the Wallapai Braves and the Oatman Club, ending with the interesting score of 6 to 5. Both teams played god ball despite the fact that the game was played in drizzling rain.
 Tommy Clark pitched six strong in nings for the Wallapais and was then replaced by Clifton. Both boys pitch ed a good game. Gwinn pitched a good game of ball for Oatman.
 There were not many fans left in town to witness it but the few who were there surely made some noise. The feature of the game was the play ing of Topp and Pugh. Topp while running for ground ball fell, the ball hitting him between first base and the school house. When at bat Topp also made two beautiful hits back over the grand stand. They surely would have been hits if the field had been back of him.

In the KingmanWinslow game a few weeks ago play came up which started an argument. Because King man stuck up for what they thought was right in the matter, Winslow called them crabbers and it seems Kingman's version of the play was correct, according to the Sporting News. Here is the question put to the Sporting News:
 Two out; runners on. first and sec ond, batter hits to field, one man scoring and runner who was on first going to third failing to touch sec ond way; ball thrown to second and runner called out. Did the run count?
 Answer: The run does not count because the out made at second was technically force out at that base, ball beating runner there and he hav- ing been forced off first by batter's hit.
