THREE OF
 BURNING AUTOMOBiL

Arthur Nealey, T. A. Allen and Henry Wilkins, farm hands are in jail facing charges of burning three automobiles. They were arrested Saturday on. complaint of F. M. Horn, Glendale rancher and their em- ployer, by Deputy Sheriff Fred Meeks.
 The complaint alleges that the three men, who have been in his employ for several months past, have destroyed three automobiles belonging to him. Two of the cars were Hudson super-sixes and the third was a Roamer, he alleges. Two of the three cars destroy ed were covered by insurance, he told officers.
 The first car, Hudson, was stolen several months ago. The thieves later set fire to it, result ing in it's total destruction, it is alleged. MT. Horn purchased another Hudson and it too was stolen. Shortly after the theft the framework of a car destroy ed by fire was found on the desert north of Glendale and it is believed that the second Horn car also was fired. A few days ago MT. Horns Roam CT was stolen and later fired.
 The arrest of Nealey, Allen and Wilkins followed yesterday. Nealey and Allen are being held in the county jail and Will kins is being held in the Glen dale jail. Glendale News.

CLEANUP WEEK A FEA-
 TURF IN MODERN TOWN.

The spring cleanup tune,
 now regular annual feature of
 town and city life, can not be
 observed on farms in the same season because of more pressing g
 work. Efforts are made con-
 stantly, therefore, to encourag ge
 picking up the odds and ends
 about the farms in the slack
 time between fall plantinA and
 early spring. In many towns,
 however, the home demonstrat-
 ion agent give their organizing
 ability to furthering such work in the early weeks of spring.
 In Spokane, Wash, a cam
 paign called the Alley and Back Yard Beautiful" began in 1919 to extend through five years. This work was inflated and guided by the city home demonstration agent, whose re- ports show excellent progress. Newspapers give constant pob- Hc1ty to the work, urging the repairing of screens. windows, and outbuildings, and the plant ing of shrubbery, trees, and flowers. In 1920, in the city of Spokane, more than 5000 grape cuttings and rooted plants were set out. The chamber of commerce supplied thousands of circulars drawing attention to the duties of citizen ship, particularly for home own CTS In many yards, as a re- suit, there are to be seen purple grapes, the stately hoIlyhock, the modest foxglove, and many other flowers growing inside freshly painted fences. In one yard, 50 by 142 feet, the hither- to neglected vines produced more than ton of grapes last year. In the work this spring Spokane is being districted for 3 Identification campaign to be conducted precisely as the Lib | erty Loan campaigns were car ried forward during the war, each district under a captain. | with team, reporting regular H y on conditions.

Alfred Skeels one of the lat

Alfred Skeels one of the late joiners of the Hayseed Club was in from his ranch near Three Sisters, Wednesday. He states that his wheat is three inches Cor was it three feet(
 high and looking fine. He is now learning the number of slashes it takes to cut a sack of spuds and the number of spuds it takes to properly populate an acre of ground. During spare time from his ranch he is assisting with the books at the White Garage. Whether he reaps a bountiful harvest of crops or not, he is certainly be- ing repaid for his ranch life, by a full measure of good health.

DIXON STILL A MYSTERY

Dixon, the Jewish jeweller, who disappeared from Flag staff several months ago, is still an unsolved mystery. His be- longings, consisting of the greater part of his stock in trade, have been attached by the sherif's office and will be put up at auction, probably soon.
 Dixon's disappearance re- minds us of the sudden drop ping from sight of Baumann, a former contractor in Williams. He disappeared quietly and has never been heard from since. There have been rumors of his having been seen in Los Ange- les, some claiming to have seen his back in crowd, but nothing more definite. Some insist that he must have met with foul play.
