NEW HAMMER HOLDS NAIL;
 INVENTED BY CARPENTER

JEROME, Aug. PA. patent has just been issued to Fred Busse, the we'll known local carpenter for an improved hammer that, it is believ. ed, will find ready market wherever tools are used
 Like all improvements, the Busse idea is a simple one and one wonders why it has not been thought of before.
 It consists essentially of a heavy strip of leather affixed to one side Of the head of the hammer and slotted at the upper end to receive nail. This enables the user Of the tool to stick" a nail at any point within the reach of his arm and as the slightest pull disengages the nail from the holder. the operation of driving can be accomplished with case.

HAVING ENoUGH-NoT TOO MUCH

to have as the small boy remarked about the cake It is always the other fellow who has too much We CT guilty in that line.
 There has been a lot of preaching about indulgence in luxury during the last few years-and every of us could point to the exravagant practices of the other fellow But way practices were never ex- travagan-we had just enough luxury the other fellow had too much
 Perhaps it is good thing that the world made up just as it s We all think could improve it, but may be we'd make mess of it. instead of trying to fit eryone to our size coat let acknowledge that there other size coats needed It will be hard for most of because we know we rght-yet it's worth trying: The old world is getting back keel and she I'll soon be sailing ahead at just about the proper speed We are recovering from seascness caused by the heavy going so are the rest of the people We can allow our slves enough of the good things of the wordbut not too much Then there will be enough for all

LIVESTOCK AND RANGES

PHOENIX. Aug. 25.-Previous to the showers of the week just ended much uneasiness was expressed re- garding the prospects for feed about Congress Junction and other deser; sections devoted 10 the grazing of cat tle. sheep and goats during the win ter Recent heavy showers have re moved all fears of shortage of grass c- water es aII the grasses a2d ferns of browse are developing rapidly and water holes are all well filled It is said that the range in many open places resembles a meadow and that al the close of the rainy season a large amount of grass will be cut and stacked for winter use. Rains were heavy on the drainage basin of the Roosevelt reservoir, Fort Apache re- porting nearly two inches for the week Heavy rains occurred on the Verde and tributaries. Seligman re- ports weekly fall of 330 inches. The observer at Nogales states that range conditions are the bst in years and reports from all portions of the south ern border indicate that pastures and stock are in most satisfactory shape. Over eight inches of rain have fallen in the Flagstaff section since the be ginning of summer rains and the ground is thoroughly soaked, the Ob. server stating that farms and range are better than 100 percent condition.
 Crop Progress in Arizona
 The weather bureau observer at Yuma reports that dates are begin ming to ripen and some local lemons are on the market. The date crop from the Yuma orchard will not be large owing to drastic treatment for scale earlier in the season. Potatoes are doing well in the Flagstaff sec. tion and nave suffered none from the blight or bugs, the latter having dis. appeared from the section.

 REcEpE; DAMAGE SLIGHT

PHOENIX, Aug. 22-Flood waters from Cave Greek, which washed five Goies in the banks 0: the Arizona can al, the main artery of the Salt River valley irrigation district and covered several square miles Of farming land last right, receded today after having come 10 point two and one-half miles north of Phoenix. For time last night it was feared that a DOT ton of the city would be inundated and the residents of that section were warned to seek refuge on higher ground.
 Officials Of the irrigation district to- day estimated the damage to the can al at $25e0 and said that little or no damage was done to the farming lands or crops. They said most of the crops were at such a stage now that the water benefited them rather than damaged them.

MAKES IMPORTANT
 DIVORCE DECISION

PHOENIX. Aug. a2.-The recent de cision of the state supreme court in The case of Horton vs Horton is of great interest to many persons who have secured divorces in Arizona and then remarried outside the state be- fore they had been divorced a year, declared Assistant Attorney General George R. Hill Saturday.
 The decision. which was prepared by Justice Baker. held that divorce contracted outside the state. even though it was anobyious attempt to evade the laws of Arizona and even though the couple returned 10 Arizona to live after the wedding, was valid both inside and outside of Arizona.
 In the case of which the decision was handed down, L. J. Horton and Mrs. William Crawford were married in Demins, W. Nj. less than a year after the bride had been divorced from Crawford She secured her di- vorce from Crawford in Arizona and therefore was ineligible for marriage within Arizona for one year.
 
 Later Horton filed suit in the Mar icopa county superior court for an an- nulment of the marriage, claiming that il was illegal because it was con. tracted before Mrs. Horton had been divorced a year. The superior court held that the marriage was void and Mrs. Horton appealed 10 the supreme court which reversed the decision of the superior court and held that the marriage was valid
 Mir. Hill said their were many peo- pie in the state who had been married under conditions similar to those in the Horton case. Had the supreme court upheld the superior court. he said. many persons would have been humiliated and embarrassed.

The Japanese ambassador al
Washington is refreshingly frank
and to the point. He suggests
that the Americans and japanese
could come to better under
standing if the practice of back
biting could be eliminated. Pos
sibly he is right, but we imagine
his remarks would be applicable
to Japan as well as to this coun-
try. Nations and people have q
right to express their opinions in
straight forward and manly
way, and it is not to be expected
that they viii always agree. But
backbiting is conducive to fric-
ton and trouble. No good ever
comes from it. If we don t want
our women to marry Japanese
men that is our business. If the
Japanese don t want our men to-
marry their women, that is their
business. Neither has a right to-
object, although we understand
that is one of the reasons the Jap
anese have for their feeling Of re-
sentiment toward us. Our cards
are on the table, gentlemen of
Nippon. Put yours there and we
will have less cause for future
trouble.

The indifference with which
many people view the disarma
ment conference at Washington
indicates that they do not fully
realize that the future Of this
country may be swaying ia the

complishes definite results we
probably vii lenjoy a long per-
iod of peace. Ii they fail, anoth.
err world war is inevitable in or

Fatty Arbuckle is again in

is under way in San Francisco
and the metropolitan papers are
giving details under glaring
headlines. Owing to the promi-

this unfortunate incident and
the notoriety it has given him,
and still more ON account of the
great moral questios here invol-
we'd, the public will devote liber-
al attention to the process of the
trial; and it should. Though dis
gushing and nauseating as the

vast benefit to this age of lower

ALL Fruit GROWERS FRIENDS
Birds That Should Be Protected Are
Listed by the American For
estry Association.

The American Forestry association
has published the fact that a cliff
swallow will eat 1000 flies, mosqui-
toes, wheat midgets, or beetles in a
day. The crops Of four chickadees
showed 1923 eggs of the cankerworm.
Take notice, Mr.. Fruit Grower. A
quail killed in q Texas cotton field
had eaten 1877 boil weevils, and prai-
rie chicken had over 300 Of them in
it's crop. The bob white has been
known to eat 1875 different kinds Of
insects. 1t has been estimated that
this bird will consume an average of
$4,000 insects and 100000 weed seeds
in a year. House martins, swallows,
and swifts eat rose beetles, May bee
ties, cucumber beetles and house flies.
The quail eats Texas fever-carrying
ticks; the killdeer and other. shore

carrying mosquitoes; a night-hawk's
