Junior Red Cross Will
Train Children to
Be Good Citizens

Training in citizenship through
service children into good ci-
tizens by teaching them to serve each
| other and the community-is the idea
upon which the Junior Red Cross pro-
gram for the coming year is based,
according to A. E. MacQuarrie, Direc-
Northern Division.
| Specific activities upon which the
! Junior Red Cross auxiliaries will en-
ter when the schools of the nation op-
en- in September are of two kinds; the
production work, which includes CO.
operation with the senior Chapter in
| the making of layettes and other gar
ments for the babies and children OF
devastated European districts; and
the citizenship training comprises a
graded course of lessons to be taught
| in connection with the regular school
work and play, emphazing the. prin-
ciples of fair play, the prevention OF
property destruction, and the social
rights of all the people in the COM
munity.
Many local projects of service to
the schools and to unfortunate chill
dren may be stimulated by partial OF
complete fiancial support by the jun
| ior Red Cross. Such projects, ex-
cept in cases of unfortunate children
should involve the betterment OF the
school as a whole, and not OF any
special group. The temporary support
of school dental clinic, school nurse
or nutritional center, are examples -oi

es to pupa late in July, and by Aug
ust the moths issue from these pupae,
and soon form bridge over the sticky
malaid in rings around the small
twigs, each ring having in it from $50
to $50 eggs. The eggs hatch the fol-
, lowing spring, when the young leaves
begin to form. The moths prefer the
Eastwood upon which to lay their
+, eggs, and the leaves of these trees
are the ones stripped first.
The egg rings on the small twigs
of the Eastwood, and of course some
| times on other trees are conspicuous
in the fall, winter, and early spring.
| At such times, the twigs with their
egg rings should be cut off and des-
troyed. When the caterpillars reach
| the ground on their silken threads and
begin to travel to find another tree,
they may be stopped by using band
of tree tanglefoot on the trunks of
the trees to be protected. These
| bands must be very closely watched,
because if the insects are at all abun-
dant, they will soon form a bridge
over the sticky material for those
coming behind. The insects also have
habit of gathering in masses when
| shedding their skins or molting.
If the masses are sprayed with kero-
sene or mashed with shingle, thou
sands can be killed. On orchard trees
or other small trees, the insects can
be readily kept under control by
spraying with the ordinary arsenical
spray, such as arsenate of lead or
paris green.

established and maintained out of the
Junior Red Cross fund; with the hope,
however, always that the school or
municipal authorities will eventually
assume the support of the projects un-
dertaken. In the case of unfortunate
children such provision may be made
as transportation to and from school,
surgical treatment for the crippled,
scholarships for dependents, clothing
open air schools for the tuberculous,
for the destitute.
The Junior Red Cross program is
not campaign for funds. No mem
bership fee will be collected from the
individual members of the Junior Aux
iliary this year; instead, affilitation
will be effected when the children of
the school room subscribe for at least
one subscription of the Junior Red
Cross Magazine at s45 per year. The
Junior Red Cross will be the vehicle
that will carry into every school room
in America plans, materials and infor-
nation, making clear the part each
child shall have in the Junior Red
Cross service.
Although Junior Red Cross Mem
berships will be.on service rather than
a mopey basis, paoney may be raised
for approval projects, by entertain
ments or programs, or other methods
that the Chapter may devise. The
proportion of the funds raised by the
local Chapter which may be sent to
the National Children's Fund has been
reduced from 60 to so per cent.

TELLS HOW TO POL
SON BOIL WEEV1L

The first complete discussion of
cotton boll-weevil control by the use
of poison has just been issued by the
United States Department Bulletin
S75. A good deaE of information on
the use Of powdered calcium arsenate
for controlling the boil weevil has
been previously issued in fragmentary
form, from time to time. All Of this,
together with recent improvements
and developments, is brought togeth-
err in the new bulletin. Not enough
copies are available for unlimited dis
tribution, but any person directly in,
terested in control of the boil weevil
may have a copy free on application

FIXING HOG PRICES
IN Blu S III Ell S

Measuring the prices of hog in
bushels of corn, instead of in dollars,
is a form of applied mathematics us
ed by the United States Department
of Agriculture in keeping tab on prlc-
es of farm products. Theoretically
100 pounds of live hogs should be
worth about 13 bushels of corn. The
ratio varies. 1t is generally highest
in the corn belt and lowest in New
England, the far South, and the far
West. At the present time the ratio
is unusually narrow-that is, 100
pounds of hogs is not worth as many
bushels of corn as usual. The de-
partment draws the inference that
during the next II months hogs will
advance more than corn or corn vii!
decline more than hogs.

CASE DISMISSED
 IN SUPERIOR COURT

The action of J. F. Miller against M. A. Sawyer and Anson H. Smith was dismissed by stipulation this week, counsel for Miller, E. E. Ar mour and Counsel for defendants, c. c. Krook and c. W. Herndon agree ing to the dismissal. Under the terms of the settlement the plaintiff agrees that the defendants are entit- led to the lands in dispute, together with the milling plant and all ma chinery on the mines at the time of the commencement of the action. Miller is allowed to take the taiiings at the mill and remove them from the ground within a certain specified time. 4k
 An application for patent to the ground, which was held up by the action, will now proceed. The com pany now owning the property al- ready has patent to all the other claims in what was known as the Smith and Sawyer group of mines, which are among the most valuable molybdenum properties in the state. The settlement of the suit will make possible the handling of the mines without vexatious litigation interfer- ing.

GOVERNMENT SURVEYS
 INDIAN RESERVATION

A party of government surveyors are now at work surveying all the lands comprising the Wallapai Indian reservation, and it is probable that an adjustment of this reservation will soon be arrived at between the rail road company and the government. Just what effect this action will have <on the status of the reservation can not be forecaSted, but we are of the opinion that the reservation should be thrown open to the public and the Indians given such lands that it would be possible for them to make living from. When the reservation was set aside in 1882 by Pres. Arthur, it was done upon application of certain gov ernment scouts who believed that they would be assured of a free range for cattle and that the government would put the reservation under their con- trol. This was not done, but no at tempt was ever made to place the In dians upon the reserve, the Indians being scattered over a wide area of country, where they might be able to obtain the necessaries of life. Only recently has any effort been made to bring good to the Indians from the reservation when herd of cattle were put on at the expense of the loss of range by cattlemen who had been paying range fees for the lands for a number of years.
 On this reservation there are no available lands for agriculture, with exception of a small garden spot in Muttiwittika canyon. The cattle bus mess would not support any portion of the trible, and the time has come when something should be done to make these Indians self supporting. Good lands are obtainable and the different elements of the Wallapal tribe could be segregated and allowed to work out their own salvation.

 Sir:
 Allow me space in your valuable paper for a letter saying that the party given on last Thursday was a success and I understand it was given by the old people and music was fur nished by Fancher's and others. While the young people were enjoy ing a good time at the dance until the hour of midnight then everybody was served with good supper. Af- ter supper dancing was resumed again until three o'clock and was closed by the band playing Home Sweet Home. Allow me to mention few that were present: MT. and Mrs. Jim Bryant, MT. and Mrs. A. B. Fancher, MT. and Mrs. Rosco Stephens, MT. and Mrs. Jim Farrell and others too numerous to mention.

HOUND GOES ON
 RAMPAGE

"Gyp", a bob-tailed dog with both ears chewed off, went on a rampage last Tuesday night and forthwith was pinched by Officer linus. This hound took dislike to small boy on Front Street and started after him. The arm of the law then descended and said dog was taken for a ride to the bastile where he has been held while he thinks over sins of the past. "Gyp" will be shot soon if no one comes to claim him.

DISCONTINUE SALE
 OF TOBACCO

The stores controlled by the Nor mon Stake in Apache and Navajo counties have agreed to discontinue the sale of tobacco after the first of December. The stores entering into the agreement are situated at Snow flake, Taylor, Shumway, Linden, Lakeside, Pinedale, St. Joseph and Woodruff. The action is in line with the rule of the Mormon church that tobacco, coffee and other stimulants are not good for human use and there fore should be cut out.

 They stopped at Bill Frost's place and then went on down to the Ward ranch where they spent Saturday and Sunday. They then visited with A. F. Cornwall, Jake Neal, Bill Stephens, Rosco Stephens, L.

 While diversion of the roadway would be expensive it is probable that a new survey would disclose a really better grade than that along the north side of the track. It is not possible that the government has the sole right in the fencing of the reser- vation, as the Santa Fe railroad has the odd numbered section throughout that region and any time this com pany sees fit to exercise it's right no fencing or restraining of cattle on the reservation would be possible. Nev- ertheless, it seems too bad that there should be any disagreement over this highway, as the government would be benefited to as great an extent as would the state and county and we be- lieve that the matter will eventually be strengthened out. The National Old Trails Road is a part of the Park to Park highway, in which the gov ernment has a deep-seated interest and which will eventually be taken over by the government for mainten- ance, and a settlement of the right of-way might just as we'll be had now as later.

YUCCA

Mrs. J. E. Rudy, of Cienaga Ranche, entertained several friends at din- ner Thanksgiving Day.
 w. B. Stephens shipped 83 head of steers recently from Yucca to Los Angeles. These were F.. C. steers.
 MT J. M. Shaw is the happy owner of brand new Ford Coupe. It looks classy to us, as we walk up the street.
 Mrs. Arthur Heath left for the coast the 22nd. She has a sister living at Los Angeles, Cal, and friends in Los Angeles. Will likely remain in Cal ifornia until after the holidays.
 The w. M. Lynch family of Wal nut Creek were recent Kingman visi- tors. Mrs. Lynch and baby daughter remaining there for an indefinite visit.
 A party consisting of Mrs. J. E. Rudy, Mrs. Earl Heath, Messrs. Earl Heath, Murry Roche and Cliff Dun lap attending Thanksgiving hop at Kingman, returning about 4 a. m. They report a very excellent time.
 JackFrost made us visit the night of the 18th. This was his first "swipe" at our garden, and it looks like invaded territory, as we view it. We are not sorry anyway, 9 months out of 12 is enough to garden in, we think.
 Joe Glen was in Yucca the 22nd in specting a bunch of cattle for Messrs. Rudy & Heath, which they started to Los Angeles the same evening" Messrs Rudy and Heath went with them. MT. Rudy had a car load of exceptionally good looking steers for immediate slaughter, and MT. Heath will put his shipment on feed for the holiday trade.
 J.E. Craig, who was interested in Castanada Wells with J. M Shaw, left here Sept. 1st for Okla., Ark, etc., with a view to permanently To- eating somewhere in that country, has recently returned to Yucca.
 If home is where tall cactus grows
 And desert sands stretch brown
 and bare
 What lure has roses fair that blow
 An homesick heart their sweets
 can't share.
 'Tis the "call of the desert," and No one can resist, who has lived for long in the great outdoors.
 There was a wild and woody story going the rounds in Yucca recently, but to date we have not been able to verify it to any extent. As we heard it: A man and his wife were pros pecting in the hills east of Yucca. The man was away in the hills, a stranger riding an immense roan horse and wearing an immense black mustache, assaulted the lady, and only the timely return of her husband pre- vented the utter destruction of tol- erably good khaki suit. The strang- CT hurriedly bestrode his monstrous steed and made his escape. We did not learn if sleuths with blood hounds would be used in experimenting him or not. Our verdict is, ,'Too much moonshine".
