WHEAT STRAW AS FERTILIZER
Much Better Plan 70 Scatter In Au-

By scattering the wheat straw at this
time the farmer should receive very
much more benefit from It than If It IS
allowed to rot In the stack this win
ter and hauled out next spring or
summer. Chemical analysis shows that
wheat straw contains 10 pounds nitro

14.s pounds Of potash in one ton. From
these figures one can readily see the
fertilizer value of wheat straw.

destroyed and one band will generally
suffice to grow tree past the danger
stage from rabbits and mice. though
the bOrer danger is ever with us, writes
Lewis Hillara in Inland Farmer. After
the tree is larger other means will be
better for combating these.
The screen wire should be wide
enough so the rabbits cannot reach
above 1t even when there is a heavy
snow on The ground. Two feet will be
enough usually, and where heavy SHOWS
seldom are deeper than a few inches
they will not need to be as high as
this. We should remember that the
deeper the snow and the longer it is
on the ground the worse the danger
from rabbits, for they get very hungry
at such times, as they can reach very
little food.
Before going to the orchard we
should cut the wire into strips three
times the diameter we want the bands,
and this we regulate according to the
size of the trees, but we should allow
for a couple years growth. A foot
strip will give a band between three
and four inches when the lap for fast
ening is taken out, and this is a very
good size.

current resolution directing the ship ping board not to sell the ships except through regular bidding after three months advertising. He and the sen ators supporting his resolution de- clared the boards action would result in the sale of vessels worth s200 a ton and more to private interests for around $50 ton. The possibility that they might go to English ownership was strongly intimated by opponents of the immediate sale.
 Before the committee, MT. Payne faced prolonged examination. Sen- ators cited the price offered the board for the Leviathan, the 54,000 ton leader of the ex-German fleet, which was s4,000,000. This was compared with an original construction cost for the vessel of $1O,000,000 and a present cost of duplicating her in American yards of 5,000,00O or $30,000.000., This lat ter figure was furnished by Homer s. Ferguson, president of the United States chamber of commerce, a ship yard head. who was present. Chair man Payne likewise furnished the esti- mates of shipping board experts, that it would cost $7,500,00O to re condition the vessel, from a troop transport to her former capacity of passenger car rier. Only one concern wanted to buy the Leviathan, MT. Payne said, but from two to five bids were received on other vessels of the fleet.

 WITNESSES DECLARE
[RepubIiesn A.P. Leased wirel


 MONTASENO, Wash. Feb. 1.-Two state witnesses testified today at the trial of II Industrial Workers of the World charged with the murder of Warren O. Grimm during an .Armistice day parade at Centralia, Wash, last November, that they had seen none of the marchers start toward the I. w. W. hall before a fusillade of shots killed Grimm and three other former soldiers
 The witnesses also declared they had not heard a proposed raid on the I. w. w. hall discussed. The testimony was given in Response to questions asked by counsel for the defense. Clarence Watkins, one of the witnesses. declared that instead of running toward the I. W. W. hall, the marchers seemed to be running away from it when the firing began. In answer to further questions he said he had never attended an American Legion meeting at which raid on the I. w. w. hall was mentioned or suggested.
 John Earl Watt, who was wounded during the shooting, testified that the platoon in which he marched had halted directly in front of the l. w. w. Eall, that he had heard no order given except one to halt and that he had heard no one suggest a raid on the I. w. w. hall.
 Mrs. verna B. Grimm, widow of War ren O. Grimm, identified a bullet marked waistcoat as one her husband had worn during the parade. She was not cross-examined.
 w. $. Mckenzie, who watched the parade from point near the I. w. w. hall, testified that the marchers did not break ranks until after the first shots .9ere fired.

PROPOSED, SALE IF 3O FORMER GERMAN
 LINERS |S OPPOSED
Opposition Says Shipping Board Would Sell Vessels Worth $2OO a Ton to
 Privates for $8O a Ton

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.-Vigorous opposition to shipping board plans for the sale of 30 former German passen- ger liners broke out in the senate to- day, expressed in sharply critical de- bate and presentation of several reso- lutions proposing to block the action. While the debate yeas in progress other developments came thick and fast.
 John B. Payne. chairman of the commerce committee which. through it's chairman, Senator Jones of Wash ington. reported to the senate that no immediate action was necessary. No action accordingly was taken.
 At the White House there was made public a letter, concerning the pro- posed sale, from MT. Payne to the president which remarked on the vicious but characteristic attack against the shipping board emanating from a certain quarter regarding the sale of the ex-German passenger ships"
 Asks Restraining Order
 In the District of Columbia supreme court, William Randolph Hearst of New York, appearing as a taxpayer, made application for an injunction to prevent the proposed sale of the ships at auction Monday. The court issued an order requiring the board to show cause Monday why a temporary in- junction SnOuiu not De issued.
 Chairman Payne assured the sen- ate committee. and his assurances were to the full senate. that the board would merely receive bids Mon day for the vessels and would report the results to the senate before acting. He met charges that the sale of the vessels to a single purchaser for $2S.- 900, ,000 was intended with flat denial. but repeated his own conclusion that the sale of ships to private owners at the present time was to the advantage of the government.

Its all in the game of the stage" remarked Alto Betuke, manager of the Globe division of the Union Auto Stage line, when one of his drivers reported having pulled several motor cars out of creeks between here and Globe. During the recent rains the roads from here to Globe have been lined with stranded cars.''
 According to Beutke, the motoring public encounters the worst trouble at Boulder. Pine and Tortilla creeks. on the Apache trail There are no bridges across these streams and when high they are veritable traps for the average car. For this reason many motorists keep as near as possible to the auto stages. depending upon them for assistance in case of trouble.
 When driver is uncertain of the ability of his car to cross one of these creeks, he will invariably get in front of the stage. and then if he sticks. we have to pull him out if we want to con- tinue on our trip" one of the drivers ol the Globe stage explained. 'T have H1lled out as many as 25 cars in one dly." he added.

[RepubIican A. P. Leased wire]

CHICAGO, Feb 14-Resolutions for the advancement of the cooperative movement in America and for legis- lation favorable to farmers and workers were passed today at the final sessions of the National Farmer Labor Cooperative congress.
 The next meeting will be held on Lincoln's birthday, 1921, the place to be determined later
 One resolution provides for the ap- pointment of committee to secure federal and state laws which shall put cooperative enterprises on an equal footing with other business.
 Another resolution calls for the study of cooperative production by a committee of technical experts. These shall select some factory and develop it along lines laid down by the reso- lutfon to work out the best methods of management.
 A system of cooperative daily news papers, press service and a pulp mill to furnish white paper are called for in another resolution. It was also recommended that all cooperative stores adopt uniform decorations, cost marks, trademarks and, wherever pos sible, uniform systems of accounting.
 The Kenyon -Anderbill, which pro- vides for the government control of meat packers, was indorsed.
 Another resolution asked that the German ships be retained by the gov ernment.
 Woman suffrage was indorsed.
 To the veterans of the world war with their slogan Enforce the con- stitution of the United States" was voted moral support of the congress. It was said the veterans held that time sedition laws were opposed assemblage clauses of the constitu- tion.

 At present, however, the Apache trail is in very good condition, according to Beutlse, who says that from Roose- welt to Globe the road is in better shape than it has been for many months Fishing at Roosevelt is another induce ment which is attracting the motorist and sportsman to the Apache trail.

vantage of

We have received number of letters ask ing us to quote prices on dairy cows. Some of these queries. come from other states and of them are from both buyers and sellers here in the valley.
 Our answers to one and all can only be that cows are selling far below what they are worth in other dairy localities. Those who selling their cows are not getting what they are really worth, except in a very few cases, and those who are buying gen. erally speaking, getting big values. One speculator who has been going thru the coun- try buying all the likely cows he could secure, has boasted that he has been making $1OO per head on cows he has shipped A live stock commission company boast of the great number of sales they have made, and declare the prices secured for cows going thru their hands are high and most satisfactory.
 But are they?
 If buyers and speculators can make as much $1OO per head dairy cows, can not the farmers retain some of that profit for them selves if they take little time and give the matter some thoug Int? The buyers, specula- fors and commission dealers will advance all possible arguments to consummate sales, for unless sale transaction is completed there Is no profit to them.
 The buyers from other states can not be blamed for taking advantage of the excep- tiesnally low prices prevailing in Arizona, but the sellers can prevent making presents" of their cattle by demanding the true value of their cows. In fact it is only the part of good business judgment to protect their invest mer1ts, both present and future. In many i'm stances the present sellers of dairy cows will he buyers in two three years, and they will find it no easy task to secure the cows they require to bring their acreage back to produc- A.~ kt~1~~ xh~~x k ~lI at anywhere near the prices they sold for
 Even supposing that they could re-buy at the prices they selling for, the costs of commissions and shipping will be consid- erable and should be reckoned as against possible profits to be derived from exclusive cotton growing. The farmer who raises cot ton from year to year, will soon find that his soil has been ruined" and that nothing will bring it back to production, except fertilizing and crop rotation. Liberal application of cow manure and rotation of leguminous crops with cotton will prevent the wearing out of the soil It is therefore safer to plant only portion of any farm to cotton, plant the mainder to other crbps-by all means some alfalfa, peanuts or other legumes-and keep dairy herd.
 But
 If the dairy herd is to be sold or reduced, get what they worth, that there shall not be so great loss when the time comes for replacement.
 Let this department assist you in getting into the dairy business.
 Our farm experts practical men who KNOW BY DOING" just how best to care for stock and arrange crops, buildings and all other farm matters They will De. glad to as- sist any farmer or dairyman free of charge.
