FORESTRY ENGINEER WANTS
 ARBITRATION INFORMATION

to State Engineer Moddack that he at tend conference of interested par- ties in Clifton on or about July End, as proposed by a committee from the Clifton Commercial club, the State Engineer replied, that in his opinion such a conference wtls premature, owing to the unsettled condition Of, affairs at present surrounding the road situation in he county, but concluded the communication with the statement that he or one of his representatives would attend if pos sible.
 Duncanite Speaks Out in Meeting
 The following communication was received this week by the Copper Era criticizing the present survey being made by surveying corps from the State Highway derartment. The communication is from ain old timer in this section and we pass it along to our readers for what it is worth. In view of the fact that the engineer ing party has not yet completed it's work, and in the further view of the fact that it was announced at the beginning of the work, that two or three different lines would be run be- fore 9 definite location was decided upon, the following criticism may be more or less premature:
 To the Voters and Taxpayers of Greenlee County:
 Regarding the scenic highway, as
 they. call it, coming through from the Rio Grande by way of Silver City and Mule Creek, the route that MT. Maddock is at present spending part
 of his time and part of the county's s
 and states money in surveying, is
 beyond a doubt the most expensive
 route that could possibly be picked
 out I have ridden after cattle in that section of the country for the past thirty years and ! know every inch of the country where he has
 been doing his surveying, and even after the road is completed, costing seventy-five to one hundred thousand 1 dollars more than necessary, the eX- pense of keeping the road up would be much greaer in comparison with a | more fea sible route, which I desire to point out. The citizens of Greenlee | county have a portion of this to pay l and I certainly think they ought to | have something to say about how and | where it is to be spent. By following the Duncan road as far as Y0rlS--and l going out on the old Twin Peaks road to the foot of the mountain, and ' up by MlllWr1ghtt Flat.. you can gel 1 to Mule Creek within five miles oi ] the distance that you would have to 1 go the other way, and would cost al the least calculation, seventy-five thousand dollars less money, and that l is what we are looking for. I thinf we should try to cut our taxes a little I rather than raise under existing cir cumstances I would like to hear thu | voice of the people in regards to this T Don't be afraid to speak. You can hurt man for telling the actua
 facts about thing. Signed,
 | C. E. HEAD, Duncan, Arizona

The proposition to arbitrate the claim of Webster Bros and Kerby, against the County of Greenlee, in the sum of '$41 900, alleged to be due them on Section of the Clifton Springerville road, is being held in abeyance pending the acceptance by Engineer Long. of the Forestry De- partment; to act as one of the arbi- trators, and in the event, he is uable to serve in person, to designate an en- gineer from the Forestry department as a member of the proposed arbitra- tion board.
 Acting upon the instructions of the Board of Supervisors, A. L. Terry. clerk of the Board, communicated the fact to MT. Long that he had been chosen, by. mutual consent, as mem Der of the arbitration board, and re- quested reply Engineer Long re sponded by asking for additional in forntation on the subject, and stated that upon the receipt of same, he would take the matter up with the District Forester.
 Until a definite reply has been re- ceived from the Forestry department the arbitrEtion agreement is being held in abeyance.
 A communication has been received from State Engineer Maddock ac- ceeding to the request that the state Aengineer name one of the arbitrators from his department.
 In the meantime the contractors are proceeding with the construction work at a rapid pace and the road camp is now located at the Laney ranch The funds remaining in the Clifton-Springe road fund are T h ~,I, h nav ment and it has been apparent foI some time that additional funds must be provided, either by an additional special levy this year, or by bond issue. to enable the county tC fulfill its contract with the Department oi Agriculture.
 Some opposition has been expressed against any special tax levy this year for county purposes, to be used or road construction. The argument is made that a large number of taxpa3 CTS have been unable to, pay theil tax bill for 1920 and are now being carried on the delinquent tax rolls The fact is also cited that the tax payers of Greenlee county will bt called en this year to pay into t'lt state treasury approximately $40,00( more, by a special state levy undel the Omnibus Road Bill. As ont prominent taxpayer expressed it thi' week: If additional funds are ne cessary to complete the Clifton SpringerVille highway, and to buil' the Mule Creek link in a nationa highway, the most business like wa, and the most economical way, as ia as the present day taxpayers are cor cerned, is to provide the necessar funds by a bond issue, in the sam manner as the original fund for tn construction of the cooperative pro ject was provided"

Advantage of treating the pigs
soon after weaving are that they are
light in weight and do not require
as much serum as when they be-
come larger thus reducing the ex-,
pense. The possibilities of obtain
ing lifelong immunity also are in
creased if the pigs are vaccinated
at that age. Before the treatment
is applied the animals should be
taken off heavy feed. No surgical
operation should be performed UNI
til at least ten days after vaccina-

Livestock farming and the prop
err care of farm manure which re
suits from this system is the most
successful and economical means OF
maintaining soils that will produce
big crop yields, according to R. e.
Stephenson, soils extension special
list from the College of agriculture.
So important is this method that
Kentucky farmers will profit not
only by giving careful attention to
the conservation of manure but also
by increasing the number of animals
until each farm is stocked to its full
capacity of meat and milk produc-
ton. No other fertilizer is as eco
nomical as that produced by live
stock, Mr.. Stephenson said. At the
present time nearly 100000 dairy
cows. more than $4,000 beef cat
tie 100000 hogs, 67S.O0O horses
and mules and nearly 7OS,O0O sheep
are helping to keep Kentucky soils
up to a state Of fertility where they
will produce big crop yields year af-
ter year.
Keeping enough livestock to con-
sumo all feeds raised on the farm
results in most OF the fertility value
of the crops being left as manure
when the livestock or livestock
products are sold, according to Mr..
Stephenson. About ten pounds of
grain and five pounds of roughage
are required to produce a pound of
beef, the plant food OF IA pounds
of this being left as manure when
the pound of beef is sold. About
nine pounds of feed are required to
produce pound of mutton, the
fertility of eight pounds of this re-
naming on the farm in the form of
manure. Hogs are more economical
in the use of feed. producing a
pound of pork from about six
pounds of feed and leaving the
fertility of five pounds on ths farm.
A small amount of fertility Is sold
from the farm when dairy PRODUCTS
are marketed.

Pigs Are Hest wcaned when Eight
Weeks Old
Good results have been obtained
BY weaving pigs when they are
from eight to ten weeks old, hc-
cording to suggestions made by
animal husbandrymen at the College
OF Agriculture to farmers who are
raising fall litters of pigs. At the
college farm the feed given the SOW
for two or three days before wean-
ing is reduced in order to dry up
the milk secretion. The pigs are
taken from the SOW at once and
little feed given her for several
days. BY this method the udders of
the sow are not damaged from being
gorged with milk when the pigs are
weaned.
A ration for weaned pigs which
has given good results at the col
lege farm is composed of 40 pounds
of corn so pounds of shipstuffs and
ten pounds of tankage. Another
one which has been found to be
good one is composed of 80 pounds
of corn, 80 pounds of shipstuff, 80
pounds of ground oats and ten
pounds of tankage.
