They honored their scrap of pa. per by bringing Rector, Lawler and Anderson from Winslow; Morrison from Prescott, and Sorey and Dean from the Phoenix White Sox. They also brought along a painted banner acclaiming williams, Champions of Arizona, which was of about as much use to them as the dress parade hel- nets the kaiser bought for his tri- umphal march into Paris. It remain ed under cover in Charlie Burton's car.
 May pitched dandy game. He outpointed his opponent by a wide margin. His support was gilt-edged.
 Cline, of Kingman, behind the plate, umpired up to his usual good form. McMillan, Kingman's third baseman, umpiring the bases in the absence of old man Diffenbaugh, the premier Winslow arbiter, who got here late, made raw decision in the second at second base and later another bad one at first, both decisions favoring the hired men. Diffenbaugh had got here then and replaced McMillan, whose mistakes were undoubtedly errors in judgment and not intentional.
 Among the Williams people at the game-and with one or two notable exceptions they took the defeat gra- ciously, like good, true sports-were: : Dr. and Mrs. Melick, Dr. and Mrs. Jeffries, Dr. and Mrs. Miller and fam lily, Dr. and Mrs. Townsville, Mir. and Mrs. Charlie Larson, Mir. and Mrs. Jerrie w.

Humus acts as a sponge and increases the water holding ca pacity of the soil.
 Humus makes he soil more mellow and granular.
 Humus binds together the soil particles and thus prevents the soil from drying by wind or washing by rain.
 Humus permits air to enter heavy clay soils more readily. . Humus makes soil darker in color.
 Humus furnishes food for for countless numbers of bacter- ia that are helpful to plant growth.
 Humus prevents baking.
 All organic matter produced on the farm that cannot be used as food should be returned to the soil to supply humus. Corn and cotton stalks, straw, and all spoiled hay, etc., should pot be

Must Be One of the Crowd.

You can't crawl into yourself and maintain wholesome social relations.
 It's mistaken notion that teaches a fellow to think he is the only one of his kind in the community. He may be a genius in some lines, but he will have equals in others. And what folly to begin such introspection that you are perpetually busy with your own thoughts. The effect is the very opposite of what you would have on the public. Men know that the really big man is able to leave his burdens at the desk where they be long. He works when he works and then begins storing up energy for the next day. And here again what you really are counts. There's something of telepathy that flashes from mind to mind and warns the wary of self-cen- tered individuals.

Bamboo Grass.

The giant bamboo grass of Japan and China grows at the rate of two feet a day in some instances. and sometimes to the height of 15O feet and a diameter of two feet. A clump is planted and it widens over the land scape with remarkable rapidity. The bamboo takes the place of steel and iron to a great extent in China and Japan. The farmer uses it to build his house and fence 1t; his household furniture is manufactured from it, and the tender shoots furnish him with a delicious vegetable for his table, It supplies framework for awnings, ribs of sails and handles of rakeS, material for the chicken coops and bird cages, stuffing for pillows and mattresses, chopsticks for eating, pipes for smok- ing, brooms for sweeping, chairs to sit upon, skewers to pin the hair, hats to screen the head, paper to write on, the pencil to write with, the crab net and the fishpole.

All manure produced should be saved,s spEeadAupon the fields and worked into the soil. If enough material is not furnished in this manner to keep up the supply of humus, then some crop should be blow ed under for this purpose.
 The best crop to blow under for green manure are cowpeaS, soy beans, sweet clover, rye and sorghum. Any of these crops may be planted in the spring and plowed under in June in time to plant a crop of sorghum or cor in July. In this way seasons crop is not lost and the soil is benneftted.

Social lcicles.

Some men gre social icicles. There seems to be no reason why they should be, but they are. They are good look ing, dress well, have education, come Of good family, and have money. Yet in spite of these advantages they fail to be the center of attraction among men. There is something about them that chillS you as soon as you begin a conversation with them They are the wall flowers at parties, the last picked at games, and the drones at every function that seeks to promote fellowship. Sometimes it's hard to see just what is the matter with them, but you have no difficulty in getting proof that they are no help in the social world. They just chill everybody sad everything that they touch.

HUMUS-THE LIFE
 OF THE SOIL

The following discussion on hpmus is from the pen of s. P. Clark, Extension Agronomist of the Arizona College of Agricul- ture. MT. Clark Says:
 The desert soils found in Ari- zona are very deficient in hum us or decayed organic matter. In any region where the desert is being reclaimed for farming purposes the problem of supply ing the deficient or ganic matter is the first one with which the farmer is confronted. Humus must be put in the soil for the following reasons:
 Humus is the chief source of supply of nitrogen.
 Humus, when decaying, mak- es available plant food from the store of unavailable plant food in the soil.
