Quick Death For Cutworms

Cutwor:ns are repoted to the United States department of agri- culture as making a clean sweep of the wheat lots on the eXperi- mental farm of the departments dry land agricultural project at Woodward. Okla. The cutworms are of the species known as the granulated cutworm.
 Poisoned bran bait is the speci- fic remedy for cutworms. The accepted formula is wheat bran, 50 pounds; Paris green or crude arsenic, 2 pounds; black strap mo- lasses, 2 quarts; water, 2 to 4 quarts or more as needed. Mix the bran and poison thoroughly in a dry state, and then add the diluted molasses, and stir vigor- ously until thoroughly mixed. Distribute the bran over the in fested field broadcast, taking care to sprinkle it sparingly around each hill. Middlings or alfalfa meal may be substituted for bran. .EX.

DID NASH FAINT?
 ASLEEP FIVE HOURS

The sheriff's officers are won
 dering whether Harry H. Nash,
 in jail awaiting trial for the mur-
 der Of Martin F. Schwab, was
 trying to pull something on them
 Sunday or whether he really
 tainted
 Under-sheriff Billy O'Brien took Nash into the bathroom at the jail for his weekly bath, lock- ing him in and staying just out side the door. After a time he noticed that Nash was keeping extremely quiet. Billy decided he'd b tt e r investigate. He found Nash in the tub, with his eyes shut, the water up just be- low his lips. O'Brien couldn't arouse him. He carried him back to his cell, then called pr. Felix Manning.
 The doctor gave Nash a hypo- dermic, opened his eyes and held a lighted match in front of them and applied one or two other sim pie tests. Nash finched under the hypdermic and tn e light to bother him. He was breathing regularly, his heart was working all right, his color good. Dr. Manning called Dr. Raymond in, and the two pbys- icians, believing Nash was sham ming, decided the best thing was to leave him alone to recover when he got ready, which he did about five hours later.
 Peter Miller, young box car tourist, arrested here for carrying a revolver belonging to the gov and who apparently IS deranged, was occupying the cell with Nash. Some of the officers wonder if Nash hadn't fixed 1t with Miller to help him in an at tempt to overpower O'Brien and escape. Others seem to think Nash may have had an idea that he would be sent to the hospital. Either of these theories may be correct providing Nash was sham ming. He is all right now, but for a day or so after his recovery was morose and sullen. .-Coconino Sun.

Where Luxury Is Economy.

Where Luxury Is Economy.
Luxury and economy seldom travel
hand in hand. But one place in which
they are found in happy reunion is
the home garden.
There is no greater table luxury
than a supply of fresh vegetables
and nothing OF greater economy, con
siderng the present plane of prices,
than a garden. Nothing in the world
is easier to have and to hold than a
garden patch which produces food OF
quality such as cannot be secured

minimum of labor produce the vege-

where all one has to do is to step
out and gather them to have them
In condition that money cannot buy

The Year Around Garden.
Those who live in the south, more
fortunate than northern neighbors,
may have garden practically the
year around, for in many localities,
there isn't month in the year in
which fresh vegetables may not be
growing and even in the cooler sec

HARDING TO RECEIVE
$4,000 YEARLY LESS
PAY THAN Mr.. WILSON

Washington. n.-Warren G. Harding,
as president of the United States, will
receive something like $4,000 less
compensation from the government
annually than Woodrow Wilson has
received. The treasury will pay
Mr.. Harding the same amount that
it pays Mr. Wilson-$75,000 annually
but internal revenue bureau Off
cials say that Mr.. Harding must re-
turn nearly one-fourth, of this in in
come tax.
President Wilson was exempted
from the income tax under supreme
court ruling because he came into
office before the enactment of the
1918 revenue laws under which taxes
were sought to be imposed on the
salaries of the president or federal
judges.

NEW TREASURE HUNT NOW
 ON

Miami, Fla, Jan. 14.-Another search for treasure trove, Sunken Spanish galleon laden with stolen doubloons, has begun on the Atlantic coast of Florida betkeen Deerfield and Boca Ratone. Romance has lured this time a group of adventurous men of Deerfield and whereabouts to dig in the oceans bottom for the buccan- eers' pirate ship which tradition says had hauled too close to the treach- erous shores when pursued. A syn dicate formed for the search has be- gun operations where the galleon is supposed to have sunk in the sands.
 This is only one of the many such adventures off the south Florida coast which in the old days before the ad- vent of lighthouses was the scene of many wrecks. Treasure seekers have brought up few ancient hulls which had been deeply buried In sand, some dating back five or six centuries. But so far no ship thus recovered has yielded anything except ancient wood One prospector is said to have spen two fortunes near Stuart before quit ting the romantic game.

 ing up a creek near F,ulford where the crew celebrated by getting drunk Seminole Indians boarded the vessel and massacred the crew except one, the story runs, and the escaped pirate succeeded in rescuing the ships treasure chest filled with gold which he buried nearby, making a diagram of the spot. Unable to return, the pirate is said to have given the dia- gram to a friend. This has been used by several searching parties, equipped with every kind of a gold finder, but they failed to locate the treasure.
 A native living nearby says the spot
 is haunted and that even now the
 ghosts of the pirates howl and groan when any one hears it. He says no one is ever going to get the treas ure, as the ghosts carry on some thing terrible when you get close to it, and there's no telling what they would do if they got their hands on it. Anything might happen in that terrible place."
