ARIZONA REFUSES TO

Phoenix, Ari7. Arizona can

Ed w. Stephens, any cattle

Mexico. if they pass through
Arizona, must go through with

Otherwise, said Mr.. Stephens
who is secretary of the Arizona
Livestock Sanitary Board, the
cattle will have to be dipped to
comply with Arizona quarantine
laws.
That any cattle, even stock
in good health, could stand trip

to the Mexican border at Nogales,

by w. g. Kaiser, Agricultural Engineer }
The construction of concrete trough
like that shown In the drawing is
not difficult task and any farmer can
build it.
A watering trough should be placed
on well drained ground, because under
the best Of conditions the livestock will
In time make mud holes unless plat
form Is built, or the holes around the
trough are filed In as soon as they
are made. Sometimes 1t Is advisable
to, put the trough on a small knoll in
order that the water will quickly
drain away.
The ground under the trough should
not only be drained but also leveled
and packed.
= Outside Form Of Trough.
The outside forms of the trough are
made of one inch boards and 2 by A.
inch pieces as shown in the drawing.
After these forms have been securely
braced, the concrete can be deposited
In the bottom to half the depth of the
floor. Reinforcement consisting Of Il
inch round rods are then placed on
the partly constructed floor. These
rods are bent in "U" shape so that
the ends will project up into the sides
and reinforce the walls. All the rods
are bent to the proper shape before
any concrete work is started, so that
they can be quickly put in and the re-
mainder of the concrete floor placed
without delay or making any joints.
: The inside form which has been
made previous to mixing any Of the
concrete Is then quickly lowered In
proper place and fastened to the out
side forms with clamps as shown In
the drawing. Speed is necessary In
order that the walls can quickly be
placed so there will be a strong bond
between walls and floors.

ALFALFA SEEDED IN SUMMER

Considerable success has been at.
tanned in seeding alfalfa on the dairy
farm at the University of Illinois
where a rotation of corn for silage
and alfalfa for hay are the principal
crops. Fall wheat Is sown after the
corn is cut for the silo. The next year
the wheat stubble is plowed as early
as possible and very thorough seed
bed prepared. The alfalfa is seeded
as soon as there is sufficient rain.
About the 28th Of SeptemberFwheat is
drilled This gives a crop Of wheat

feed.
The decision en- the part Of
Arizona authorities seals the
doom of thousands of New
Mexico cattle who are now starv-
ing on dry ranges said Mr.. Steph-
ems, but in protection of the
Arizona cattlemen it would be
unfair to lift the quarantine, es-
pecially since it is reported many
cattle in New Mexico are suffer-
ing from scabies.

The aggregates should be free from
sticks, soil or foreign material. Only
enough clean water should be used
In mixing to make concrete Of jelly
ike consistency.
AS the concrete Is placed 1t should
vbe Spaded next to the forms in order
to force the larger rocks back into the
mass and let the mortar work out
against the forms, resulting In
smooth, dense surface.
AS soon as the concrete has hard
ened sufficiently to be Self-sustaining,
the inside form is removed and the
interior Of the trough given cement
wash made by mixing cement and wa
ter until it Is about as thick as cream.
This wash can be put on with an Or
binary brush or broom. The wash will
make a smooth surface and insure
water-tightness.
The inside of the trough is given
slope outward toward the top. This Is
important because If water freezes in
the tank, the pressure will lift the
Ice and thereby prevent the formation

 Mir. Greene was complimented this morning for efficiency yesterday in finding and repairing an outside cross circuit within 15 minutes. Pretty slick work" said a veteran electrician, admiringly.
 "Yes, but people generally don't seem to appreciate the service they get here," said Mr. Greene, Judging by the kicks which we occasionally hear. We grin and bear it, doing the best we can. Angels cannot do more." He remarked that many persons coming here expect to find utilities better than those, outside, which wasn't reasonable in q pioneer community.
 Asked by "tenderfoot" whether his company used Katalla oil for fuel, MT. Greene smilingly replied in the negative, explaining that the ka- talla residue oil was too rich and powerful for such use and, besides, transportation was lacking. He IS enthusiastic for the development of the Katalla field, however. A permanent and reliable survey
 of the field is needed, he said, be- cause so many claims are found to conflict, with resultant heavy ex- pense.

 THOUGHT HE HAD FORTUNE
 Some time ago a bottle with it's paper was dropped in the Indian ocean and picked up in the Red sea off the coast of British Sonaliland by Mo- hammedan named Mohamed Musta- pha, who believed the paper of mys- tic value. Being unable to read it's message in any of the several lan- guages in which it was displayed, he mounted his camel and role miles across the desert to the nearest Brit ish agent. After endeavoring to ex- plain the nature of the find, the agent filled out the blank with the finders name and forwarded to the Navy De- partment in Washington. The native departed still convinced that some great reward was his, and about two months later rushed into the same office again demanding further eluci- dation on a newly acquired paper In his hand he waved large pilots chart of his native waters and a let ter from the hydrographic thanking him for his service. The chart he in- sisted was a draft on the American government for large sum of money and he demanded to know wby the local bank would not cash it for him.
