81 TO $4,000 IS
RANCE IN PRICES
ON ARTISTS WORK

L. Pierre Boettemer paints for both
the connoisseur and the proletariat,
some of his work being valued at
more than $4,000 while other paint
ings are being passed out to the gen
eral public at something less than 80
each. And those not versed in the
finer points of art find it difficult to
distinguish between the two pro-
ducts.
Boettemer now attracts crowds to
the windows of the Palace Hardware
company's store on West Washington
street, where he paints fascinating
glimpses of Arizona's mountains and
lakes for something less than 50 each.
His idea is to get people interested in
his work, to establish a reputation in
the west. He is firmly entrenched
among the eastern artists. He is a
member of the Metropolitan Art Mu-
scum of New York and the Chicago
Art Institute. His painting "Cette
Semaine" (This Week. is interna-
tionally famous. It now hangs in
the Casino at Monte Carlo and is
valued at $4,000.
But l love the west and want to
get acquainted with the people out
here" he said. land want the people
out here to get acquainted with me
and my work. The general public
likes paintings but cannot afford ex-
pensive ones. So turn out the best
/ can in the shortest time possible
for acceptable work and get my work
into the many homes of your state
that would otherwise have only
printed calendars and other cheap re-
productions of art works instead of
real paintings"
Boettemer came to the United
States from his home in Marseilles,
France, in 1910 and has visited prac-
tically every state in the union. He
is now concentrating on Arizona
mountain scenery and has spent
many months in the northern part of
the state, especially around the
Grand Canyon, which he considers
the most wonderful of natures works
of art. He has a regular studio at
the foot of Pixies Peak in Colorado
which he keeps open during the sum-
mer months.
mo place in the world offers bet
ter settings for the artist than the
western portion of the United
States" he declared.
Monsieur Boettmer will remain in
Phoenix for the balance of the week
and will continue to paint new can
vases in the windows of the Palace
Hardware company and distributing
them TO the public at only slightly

present time is indicated by the fact
that in cooperative undertakings
during the past year the biological
survey field men have assisted farm
ers and stockmen in the destruction
of pocket gophers, prairie dogs. squir-
rels, rabbits, etc, on over 1S,O00,0O0
acres of land.
The estimated saving In crops and
range grasses. based largely on state
ments of farmers and stockmen
themselves, amounts to more than
S11, 600, 600 for the past season.
A total of 12S,51S skins and scalps
of predatory animals have been
turned in by biological survey and
cooperating state hunters to date
in the United States. This total in
Guided 109,946 coyotes; 1874 bob
cats and lynxes; 1896 lobo wolves;
$40 mountain lions and 81 bear.
Stockmen estimate that the past
years work alone was worth over
Sc, 100000 to the industry.
The sale of skins taken by federal
hunters has enabled the biological
survey to turn into the L. S. treas
ury during the past five years sum
of $240,423.63. Large sums have also
been turned into the cooperating
state treasures for skins caught by
state hunters. The biological survey
has to date turned $I4,475.37 into the
Arizona state treasury.
Cooperating state officials are
proud of the work accomplished in
Arizona to date. In the last annual
report of the University of Arizona,
w. NJ. Cook, director of Mite agricul-
tural extension service, makes the
following statement in regards to the
hinI0Uioa1 c-rfYypN'S work here iS
probably no project work connected
with the extension service which
llows up with more evidence of re
suits than rodent control work, and
it is one of the most appreciated SER
vices which the government and
state are giving to Arizona farmers
at present.
The state livestock sanitary board
co-operates on predatory animal con-
troll and in a recent letter received
from Frank P. Moore, chairman of
the board, who lives near Douglas,
he says: "You are doing good work
in both rodent pest and predatory
animal control that couldn't very
well be dispensed with. l have seen
practically whole townships in Co
chise county absolutely cleared of
prairie dogs under your supervision
where formerly for years before there
admit been anything else but p4a4.-
dogs"
DR.. Nelson should feel somewhat
at home in Arizona as he moved to
| Apache county 81 years ago and lived
there for six years. He has visited
| the state practically every year since
that time and consequently has a
host of friends who always look for
ward to his annual visits.

Capacity Of Canal
Did Not Influence
American Proposal

"
WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.-Investi-
cation discloses that the size of the
lock of the Panama canal played no
part in Secretary Hughes proposal
to the arms conference that the size
of capital ships be limited to the max
imum of $4,000 tons. AS a matter of
fact, a battleship of S00 900 tons, armed
and armored to an extent never as
yet projected, could pass through the
locks.
The navy department is prepared
to build today up to $4,000 tons and
Il of the Is ships the United States
mas offered TO s rap are of 43, 900 tons
or more.
In the naval appropriation bill of
1916, congress directed that the navy
department prepare figures as to the
maximum size possible for a battle
ship in view of size limitation Of the
canal locks and of the dockage and
harbor depth restrictions. The de-
partment reported a ship of the fol-
lowing characteristics was practicable.

North America" are well known
through their publication in the Ma
tional Geographic Magazine.
DR.. Nelson heads a service which
has benefited the stockmen and
farmers of the United States in no
small way. One of the chief func-
lions of the biological survey is to
perfect methods and to supervise the
control of rodent pests which de-
stroy farm crops and predatory ami
mails which prey upon the livestock
and game.
Rodent pests annual destroy over
$500, 900, 900 worth of farm crops and
food stuffs, while stockmen lose
around s30.000,000 a year in losses of
livestock through predatory animals.
To eliminate loss of $3.50, 100000
a year looks like a staggering under
taking. When a leak is detected in a
corporation, mill or factory and
means of prevention is found, it is
possible to issue orders putting i'm
proved practice into effect forthwith
Not so in the case of losses caused
by rodent pests and predatory ami
mails. You cannot order the pests to
stop eating. The magnitude of the
task is measured by the length and
breadth of the whole United States,
and its execution requires not only
action by federal and state officials.
but the voluntary cooperation of
hundreds of thousands of people
who must be enlisted in the move
ment.

of regulations.
According to the federal horticul-
tural board report. the pest was found
in five fields in the vicinity of En-
mis-. Ellis county, Texas. T h i s
county is not only the largest pro-
Queer of cotton in Texas, but has
within its borders a number of the
largest cotton seed farms in the
South.
The Ellis county infestation appar-
emily originated in seed shipped from
Carlsbad, New Mexico, of the crop
of 1920. prior to the determination of
the incipient infestation at that point
January 6. 1921. Twenty seven car
loads of seed produced during the
year 1880 were shipped to Ennis.
A large amount of additional carloads
during this period went to a number
of widely separated points in Texas.
a small number of shipments were
also made to points in other southern
states. At many of these points the
Carlsbad seed was more or less sub
divided and in many cases used for
planting purposes. All of these points
have been under field inspection
through the season and the Ellis and
Grayson county infestations are the
only ones so far discovered.

REPUBLICAN A. p. Leased Wirel


WASHINGTON. Nov. 30-China's
case for the withdrawal of foreign
troops, not sanctioned by treaty.
from Chinese territory was presented
before the Far Eastern committee by
the Chinese delegation yesterday.
Consideration went over until next
day. Coupled with Chinas proposal
was a request for the removal of IN
authorized police stations and tele-
graph and wireless installations
The Chinese delegation, it is under
stood based it's argument virtually
on that presented at Versailles by the
Chinese peace delegation, but includ-
ed data covering events of the past
two years.
DR.. Alfred SEE said China confined
its request to encroachments on her
sovereignty not sanctioned by treaty.
When the proper place on the agenda
was reached, he added, the delegation
was expected to make its plea for
the removal of foreign legation
guards, troops stationed along the
Peking- Mukden railroad to protect
communications and certain other
troops and foreign police authorized
after the Boxer uprisings.
Unauthorized foreign troops, ac-
cording to Chinese officials, are
mostly Japanese, with only handful
of British troops sent in 1918 to
Kashgar. Chinese Turkestan, to pro-
tect a postal station.
Japanese soldiers, according TO
Chinese authorities, are in South

PINK BOIL WORM
FOUND IN TEXAS

The dreaded pink boil worm has in
vaded the greatest cotton producing
sections of Texas, according to word
received by~Don c. Mote. state ento
mologist, from the federal horticul-
turai board. Unregulated shipments
of cotton seed for planting purposes
are responsible for the spread of the
pest.
The occurrence of the pink boil
worm in the largest producing Sec
ton of Texas undoubtedly is by far
the most serious development which
has occurred since the finding of the
pink boil worm in the United States,
Mr.. Mote said yesterday. In his
opinion it illustrates the danger of
moving cotton seed from one cotton
growing district to another, and
demonstrates the wisdom of Ari-
zona's cotton seed quarantine. which
prohibits the movement of cotton
seed from one planting district to
