POULTRY NEED CLEAN HOUSES
viii Not Do Well Under Unsanitary
Conditions, as Found i'm Some
Poultry Houses.

Don't let the poultry houses be-
come foul and stale during the sum-
mer months, for that is the time
when poultry parasites are most
active and Injurious" is the advice
of the poultry section of the Iowa
extension department.
Sanitation is very essential in the
yards, houses and with the equip
ment in order to have a flock free
from disease, lice and mites. All
droppings and trash should be re-
moved from the poultry house and
yards. The yards should be plowed
deeply and sown to green crop,
such as oats. 1t is well to lime the
soil after the blowing to aid in
checking the work of disease germs
that may be present.
Spray thoroughly the houses
which are badly infested with mites,
using a mixture of three parts of
kerosene and one part of crude car
bolic acid. Standard solutions of
stock dip or coal tar products will
serve satisfactorily also for this pur-
pose.
White washing the poultry house
each year checks insect breeding and
leaves the building clean. A white
wash suitable for this work can be
made by mixing one bushel of un-
Stacked lime, which should be
Stacked in IL gallons of warm wat
er, two pounds of common salt, one
pound of zinc sulphate, which is
dissolved in two gallons of warm
water and added to the Stacked lime
and two gallons of milk. For every
gallon of this solution Athree tea
spoonfuls of chlorinated lime should
be added to make the white wash
act as disinfectanb as well as a

made. Remember that during the
campaign congress passed similar
resolution establishing peace, but
President Wilson refused to sign it.
But Mr.. Harding, at that time, made
the promise that il such a measure
were presented to him he would
/, sign it, AND HE KEPT THAT
PROMISE.
Just after the armistice was sign
ed in November, 1919, President
Wilson spoke to congress and said,
Thus the war comes to an end
But we know it didn't. Enemies of
the world club and friends of the
United States FIRST have been crit
icized for delaying actual peace two
and half years. But Mr.. Wilson
wanted so-called peace at too great
cost. He wanted IT at the cost of
discarding the Monroe Doctrine and
surrendering our national sover-
eighty. The republicans refused to
give up all those things for which
our fathers fought. l would rather
see this country poor as church
mouse than to be the slave even in
one tiny way of body of European
countries.
THE war is now really ended and
| it is ended without losing our lib
erty and without entangling alli-
ances against which the father of
our country warned us. He knew,
and the real Americans of today
know, where lies the greatest dan
ger to our national safety.
Eyes, kiddies, PEACE is HERE
and with it the joyful knowledge
that we can go ahead and solve our
own problems in our own way and
face the whole world as AMERICAN
FIRST, last AND ALL THE TIME,
which makes us much more respect
ed by the outside world than if we
had given up without murmur."

ooLoRED pUGrLIsT RELEASED

Jack Johnson, former heavy

prison shortly before 10 O'Clock on

months of years sentence for vi

he would go back into the ring soon

myself to the government for mill
tary service during the war, but I
was not accepted"
he declared, however, that he did
secret service work for the Ameri-
can government in Spain during the
war. His principal activities, he
said, were at Madrid and Barcelona.
"My record" the former champion
said, will stand investigation"
Referring to his battle in Cuba
with Jess Willard, when he lost the
championship, Johnson said: Sat
that time had to do what did.
When am dead and in the grave
they'll see smoke coming up out of
the grave, and it will be from my
feet, which. are hot yet from that
fight"
Johnson said he had not yet

Wilson who want to make it appear
that any kind of peace with Ger
many but the kind he wanted will
accomplish nothing. That is natur-
ally silly and childlike. The reso-
luton declaring peace between the
United States and Germany adopted
by congress and signed on July I'd
by President Harding means that
peace does exist. No one can deny
that. To say that the resolution will
have mo effect whatever is nothing
more or less than political move
on the part of those who we're de-
feated in their attempt to turn the
government of the United States
over to an international body, a
world club"
what will the resolution do7"
asked Ruth.
well, the first thing is that 1t
means the establishment of diplo-
matte relations between the Two
countries-the sending of an Amer
lean ambassador to German and the
reception of German ambassador
in the United States. Now let me
ask a question. What is the biggest
thing that these critics of the pres
ent administration have been howl
ing for?"
81 don't know" said Jack.
1.-THE resumption of business with
Germany. We have been doing bus
mess with Germany for a long time
and with the peace resolution IN eff
feet it means the quick aud swift ad-
justment of all conditions that will
build up big trade. Thsra is no
bigger factor in the whole makeup
of the European situation than the
bringing about of real trade with
Germany. Now, why is this?"
"She can't pay what she owes for
the war unless she can sell some
thing, can she, Uncle Ted" was
Jacks answer.
That is very good answer,
Jack The whole matter affects the
world, so to speak. 1t affects
France, Belgium, Great Britain and
Italy just as much as the United
States and Germany. Now another
thing. Senator Underwood has said
that Germany won't agree to our
terms on a commerce treaty. How
can he say that when it has Only
been a matter of few weeks since
Germany asked President Harding
to name the total amount they
should pay all countries, and that
they would pay whatever sum he
would fix. No. kiddies, Germany is
beaten country. Her people real
ize that she must pay for the horri-
BILE way in which she acted during
the war. Her request 60 President
Harding may simply have been one
way of trying to make friends with
us, but surely if she would go that
far she would be willing to make
terms on our basis to bring about
real peace and make possible the re-
establishment of trade. OF course
we are going to enact a tariff law
that will prevent Germany or any
other country from selling goods
here at such low prices as to destroy
our own industries.
Lets look at this matter from
another angle. If we had agreed to
enter the world club and ratified the
treaty of Versailles as its friends
urged so hard more than year
ago, status Of peace would have
existed. But how about actual
peace so far as those nations who
did agree to it are concerned? Form
ally they have started all over again
SO far as their relations with Ger
many and Austria-Hungary go, but
certainly they are long way from
PEACE. Europe is covered with
little wars and real settlement of in
ternational disputes has not been

we know what Uncle Ted has told
US that they said the only way to get
peace was to Join the world club
and be the goat for the rest of the
nations"
But there were a few real Amer
leans who thought George Washing
ton knew something, weren't there,
Jack?" said Uncle Ted as he Joined
in the conversation,
"You bet there were, Uncle Ted.
Won't you tell us something about
the new peace and what it means?"
Sure, Jack. II tell you all the
important points, anyway. You see

QUIT ROCKING THE BOAT

Employers and employees should employ all reasonable cooperation to keep industries going.
 One of the most disturbing factors in the present situation is the labor agitator who advises workers to re- sist any concessions asked of them by employers, to stand firm against any wage reductions, and threaten ing that if they refuse to do this they will be "fired' from their un- ion bodies.
 If prices and wages come down together no harm will be done to labor, because wages must be judged by their relation to prices, to just how much the dollar will buy.
 It is manifestly impossible for the agitator to bolster up his advice with reason, because labor cannot resist wage reduction, at the same time demanding a reduction in prices.
 The best thing workers can do is to follow the dictates of common sense and fair play and leave the agitator to waste his breath on empty air.

FEDERAL COURT
 FOR BOOTLECGERS

Hereafter all Yavapai county de- fendants charged with violation of anti-liquor laws will be taken before the federal court at Prescott instead of before the superior court.
 Notification to this effect was re- ceived last evening by Deputy Sher- if Charles Sauer from the United States marshall's office, at Phoenix. The new ruling vitally affects sev- eral Verde district parties who have been looking forward to defending themselves before the superior court at its session next month.
 It is understood that the number of alleged bootleggers and trans porters of liquor who were found not guilty at the last session of the superior court has drawn the atten- tion of federal authorities, hence the decision to prosecute all liquor cases under the national law instead of under the Arizona statutes.
 As Uncle Sam is notably more se- were than are state courts, the fiourishing liquor industry can now be classed as extra hazardous in stead of merely hazardous-Verde Copper News.
 The brazen manner in which the bootleggers of Navajo County put over their job leads one to believe that federal intervention is about the only means that drinking booze in public place can be remedied. It takes about as much red tape to get search warrant as it does to make out your income tax-and in the meantime the bootlegser legs it.

BUSINESS INSTITUTE
 WILL; OPEN SOON

The Holbrook Business Institute, which is being organized by Herbert w. Chaffin, will be ready for open ing about the 18th of March, accord ing to a statement by MT. Vogel, a promoter of the enterprise. The school will be conducted in the front office rooms on the second floor of the Wetzler building.
 Graduates of this institution will be enabled to invest their money with the assurance that it will come back to them with a liberal profit added. A business education such as this school promises is of inestimable value in every line of business.
 The promoters of this enterprise are men of practical experience in the modern business world, and they will conduct the work upon strict ly modern basis.
