DEMOCRAT BACKING REPUBLICAN TICKET

Declaring the only safe and sane course to pursue is to vote the straight Republican ticket from president to constable, J. ". D. Davis, lifelong Democrat, Is advocating this course.
 In a letter to Governor Thomas E. Campbell, MT. Davis asserts that not only will he vote the Republican ticket but that nine other "life-long Demo crats" are associated with him in quietly working to save our country from being betrayed into the powers of monarchy "by an arch enemy of a Republican form (Woodrow Wilson.)" Tn his communication Mir. Davis took the opportunity to express his ad miration for the governor, whom he as he is honored in his own state.
 Following is the letter:
 Phoenix, Arizona. Governor Campbell:
 My Dear Governor:
 Please allow me to address you as life long Democrat while I will admit of four years affliction that will term ness,'' but I lived over it with the same forgiveness that our mothers forgave when they suffered before our entrance into this world.
 l First, I intended to scratch Cox 1 (Woodrow Wilson, intended | to scratch the entire national legisla- tive department. Third can now see 1 but one course to pursue that would be sane, safe or patriotic, for I see our countrys liberties are at stake and l can assure you that I have associated with me nine lifelong Democrats that are quietly working with me to save our country from being betrayed into the powers of monarchy by an arch enemy of a Republican form (Wood- row Wilson.) Fourth, Cox is only a figure head of Wilson and his organ ized bunch.
 Please excuse me when I say that since hearing your address near the postoffice, also hearing and admiring your manner of explaining facts, have delved deep into the Democratic method of conducting government in Arizona. I have concluded that there is only one safe and sane method to pursue and that is a straight Repub- lican ticket, from president to con- stable, which of course will include you, my dear governor, and l hope will live long enough to see you hon. ored by your state, for I recognize ir you a great man and statesman.
 Yours very truly,
 J. W. D. DAVIS,
 Scottsdale Stage.

YOUR OPPORTUNITY

They say that Opportunity knocks
at the door Of every person" at least
once. He is now at yours.
have 100 acres Of land seeded to
fall wheat and looking fine, at Quitch-
apa-the only section Of our valley
where arid farming has been demon
strated to be successful-for sale for
only 100000. This land is fenced
and has a small artesian we'll on IT.
Last year wheat from this land took
first prize at our County Fair.
Just think what it will mean to you
this wear. There is already moisture
enough in the ground to mature the
crop. If you harvest 20 bushels per
acre this will mean 1920 bushels.
8 200 bushels at $500 will be $6,40O.0O
for the crop alone.
If you are inclined to speculate at
all this is your chance to make some
easy money.
l will give all kinds OF time on
$1,000 of the purchase price but will
expect the balance in cash.

Why Colds Are Dangerous.

You are often told to "beware Of a
cold" but why? We will tell you:
Every cold weakens the lungs, low
res the vitality and paves the way for
the more serious diseases. People
who contract pneumonia first take
cold. The longer a cold hangs on,
the greater the danger, especially
from the germ diseases, as a cold
prepares the system for the recep-
ton and development of the germs of
consumption, diphtheria, scarlet fe-
yer and whooping cough. The quick
er you get rid of wour cold, the less
the danger of contracting one OF
these diseases. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy has a great reputation as a
cure for colds and can be depended
upon. 1t is pleasant to take. ADV.

COMMON SALT IS DANGEROUS
Hogs and Chickens Are Very Suscepti-
Bile to Poisoning by Mineral
Instances Cited.

It should be borne in mind that
hogs and chickens are very SUSCEPTIBLE
to poisoning by common salt.
A lady emptied ice containing salt
from the ice cream refrigerator in
the backyard. The chickens picked
up salt enough to kill them.
A ~newly-wed made a cake of salt,
presuming it to be sugar. 1t was
thrown to the chickens and killed all
of them.
Pigs were allowed to craze In a pas
ture with cattle where they had access
to a salt lick they licked the salt
~ravenously and all but three of the
herd died.
Another cas- Is reported where salt
brine was mistaken for sugarwater
and fed to hogs with garbage; the pigs
were poisoned and died the following
day.
Salt poisoned hogs show no symp-
toms for several hours, when they are
taken with dizziness, increased thirst,
frothing at the mouth, diarrhea, and
vomiting. Keep salt away from hogs
and chickens.-Geo. II. Glover, Colo
RADIO Agricultural College.

TO KEEP HENS COMFORTABLE
House Must Be Kept Dry, Well Ven
tilated and Sufficient Space
for Scratching.

The poultry house is both the
home of the hen and the factory
where winter eggs are produced, and
unless it provides suitable living and
working conditions the hen cannot
be expected to lay well. The chief
requirement IS that the house must
keep the birds comfortable. To be
comfortable the house must be dry,
well ventilated, well lighted and have
sufficient floor space to provide exer-
else by scratching. Dryness is in
sured by having a good roof, keep
ing the floor of the house higher than
the surrounding ground, and by pro-
viding good ventilation. Ventilation
must supply plenty of fresh air with
out drafts. This is secured in the
poultry house by having the south
side relatively open and the other
three sides absolutely tight. The i'm
portance Of light in the poultry
house has not been properly empha-
sized In the past.

eases have their origin in the soil or
in unclean bins. 1t is important,
therefore, that great care be taken
While digging and also while handling
the potatoes after placing them in
storage.
Potatoes badly bruised when dug
should not be placed in storage with
sound potatoes, since they. are certain
to rot and spread infection throughout
the bins. A field that has contained
rogued, is very likely to yield a con
siderable number of potatoes slightly
infested, at least, with b~lackleg rot. If
these are placed in storage with sound
large amounts of storage rot, especial
ly if the potatoes are damaged when
being dug or after being placed in
storage.
Mr.. Tolaas finds that a large amount
of storage rOts can be prevented by
placing the potatoes as soon as dug
in crates, which, when filed, can be
hauled to the storage cellar and care
fully dumped wherever wanted. If
it is necessary to drop the potatoes
several feet much damage can be
avoided by providing a chute for low
ering them into the cellar.
Storage cellars, especially those
which contained a lot Of rotted pOta-
toes the previous year, should be thor
oughly disinfected with a strong solu-
ton of bluestone-one pound being
dissolved in ten gallons of water; or
formaldehyde, II pint in ten gallons
of water, before the potatoes are put
away. Good ventilation with tempera-
ture of from 35 to 40 degrees Fahren-
heit will aid materially in keeping
down the loss from storage rots.

TAKING hats "by and large"-just
l. average hats-that are now dis
charging their responsibility as mid
winter head coverings, we come to the
cheerful conclusion that their standards
of beauty have advanced. In millinery,
as in some other things, Americans
were thrown upon their W resources
during the war and the effect on de-
signers appears to have been stimulat-
ing. They have become more or less
self-reliant.
Five hats such as a stroll along the
streets of any busy city will reveal
on the head of shoppers or promenad-
ers, are shown here. They include
three models made of velvet, one Of
duvetyn and one of brocade and fur.
Ingeniously draped velvet turbans
have been, and continue to be, great
favorites with women Of conservative
and elegant taste. Such a turban APP

not fear comparisons. There is much

spell success and makes an appropri-
ate gown for afternoon or dinner. 1t
is quite equal to supporting a hand

company with the best the milliner has
to offer.

its going to tax her resourcefulness

And she knows also that money alone

PLAN TO INCREASE POULTRY
Department Of Agriculture Recon-
mends Careful Selection of
Breeding Stock.

The campaign that has been inaugu-
rated by the United States Department
of Agriculture to stimulate and in
crease poultry production along more
efficient lines is divided into the fol-
lowing phases:
Careful selection of breeding stock
to reproduce a larger percentage Of
good types Of profitable producers.
Early Matching, so as to produce fall
and winter layers.
To confine mother hens to brood
coops for at least two weeks after the
chicks are Matched.
To provide free range for both grow
ing stock and layers in so far as pos
sible to stimulate growth and produc-
ton and conserve food consumption.
To preserve eggs for winter use.
The production of infertile eggs as
soon as the breeding season is over.
Disposing of surplus cockerels as
broilers to conserve grain.
To discourage the marketing of all
profitable hens of the general purpose
class until the end of their second
year, and of the Mediterranean or egg
class until the end Of their third lay
ing year.
To encourage the careful selection
of all hens in order to eliminate the
Improbable producers.
To discourage the marketing of all
profitable pullets as broilers and of all
Well-matured pullets for meat.
To encourage the caponlzing of cock
erels only when free range can be
provided and a special nearby market
afforded.
To encourage backyard poultry
keeping, especially among city and
suburban dwellers, thereby utilizing

INFLUENCE OF LOAD ON PULL
Harder to Haul Wagon When Bulk of
Load Is Placed Near Front,
Says Iowa College.

Tests recently conducted at Iowa
State college show that a wagon pulls
harder when the bulk of the load is
placed owe the front wheels than
when 1t is loaded over the e a ones.
The actual difference in pounds of
pull amounts to nearly a hundred
pounds, so that the man who carried
the load from the rear of a wagon to
the front not only works harder him
self but he auses more work to be
done by the team as well.
One Of the reasons for this, say the
testers, Is that the front wheels are
smaller and that they open up tracks
for the real ones.
Where trucks are used 1t Is of an
advantage to load on the real since It
aids in the traction and keeps the
wheels on the ground.

small part of the ~far-reaching contest
which, beginning in the local boys
and girls clubs in many hundreds of
communities, progressed to the con-
tests for county supremacy, and then
to the state championships, many Of
which were finally settled at the va
riOus state fairs. These state cham
piOn teams were the ones sent to COM
pete for national honors at the dairy
show.
In the contest last year only six
individuals were entered, from as
many states, while this year IS states
were represented with teams of three
each. These 45 contestants were the
guests Of the National Dairy ~associa-
ton for five days, and were taken by
the association or a tour of the pack
ing and machinery plants, and on auto
mobile tours Of the city. On the day
following the contest they participant
ed In a banquet, where the awards
were presented by representatives of
the various donors.

JUNIOR JUDGING
CONTEST HONORS
Missouri Team of Three BOYS
Captured First in Passing
on Dairy Cattle.
ILLINOIS IN SECOND PLACE
Spectators Were Impressed With Busl-
nesslike Procedure of Youth
fuI Judges-TWo Girls Fortu-
nate in Winning Prizes.

In the second national boys and
girls dairy'cattle judging contest, in
which Is teams from as many states
competed for the junior judging hon
ors, the Missouri team of three boys
won first place in judging all breeds
Of dairy cattle, second place going to
Illinois, and third to Texas. A Mis-
souri, boy, Arthur Gwinn, made the
highest individual score for judging
all breeds. Another Missouri boy, Ar
thur Bennett, was second, and Clar-
ence Doran Of Illinois was third.
The awards for the best teamwork
in judging different breeds were as
follows: Ayrshires, Missouri; Guern-
seys, Maryland; Holsteins, Illinois !;
Jerseys, Ohio. The contest was con-
Quoted at the National Dairy show
by the Boys and Girls club section,
office of extension work North and
West, states relations service, and the
dairy division, bureau of animal in
dustry, United States Department of
Agriculture.
Spectators Much Impressed.
During the contest spectators were
much impressed with the ~busineSslike
way in which these youthful stock
judges went about their work of judg-
ing the eight rings of animals, consist
ing of a ring of COWS and a ring of
bulls of each of the following breeds !:
Ayrshire, Guernsey, Holstein and Jer-
sey. 1t was a big days work, but well
worth the effort, as all the contest
ants undoubtedly gained a broader
knowledge of judging dairy cows
through contact with excellent types
of cattle, experienced judges, and
through other educational features.
Among the As contestants were two
girls. One Of the girls, Helen Green
lee of Ohio, furnished a surprise by
taking first place in the judging of
Jersey cattle, while Pearl Baker Of
Michigan won the bronze medal for
judging GuernSeyS.

girls who took part in it, was only a

FERTILE EGGS FOR MATCHING
Maximum Fertility Not Likely to Be
Obtained Before Two Weeks
After Mating Fowls.

Matings should be made at least
two weeks before beginning to save
the eggs for Matching. If less time
is allowed, the maximum fertility is
not likely to be obtained. 1t is often
desirable to mate even further ahead
than two weeks so that a few eggs
can be incubated for five or six days
to see whether they are fertile. If
these eggs are not fertile, there is
still time to change the male bird
and thus be sure Of fertile eggs for
the earlier matches.
