MATHEW, WAR HERO, TO EXHIBIT ART PHOTOS
 AT STUDIO NEXT WEEK
Continued from Page One.)

lieutenant, with the intelligence corps and at the end of the war was cap- tain. w. c. Spargo, the famous wal correspondent of the Boston Traveller wrote a fine account of Mayhew's heroic services, which The Sun re- porter managed to get hold of when the scrapping photographer wasn't looking, and was industriously en- deavoring to type off the entire ac- count when Carl came in and grabbed the paper. Here is what the reporter carried away from the scramble:
 "Lt. Mayhew, scout officer of the 3rd battalion, was marvel at lead ing patrols. He was a real daredevil, and if we hadn't known him as well as we did, loved and appreciated him, we would have thought he was little daft for his actions were such as would be attributed to a man who had no thought of safe and sane conduct even in war.
 Every night he used to sneak out by himself, crawl along on his hands and knees, or wriggle along on his stomach out in front of our lines in biiC DlaSniiCoo anu IiiC Ilud VI biiC strip of land between the two rows of trenches. He would prowl around, climb over or under the barbed wire and come back a little while later with plenty of information.
 He was about feet 8 inches tall, blond and quiet appearing, and when not wandering around in front of the trenches he looked nothing like the wild, bullet Drawing information-seek- CT he was. It. Mayhew, if 1 may state my opinion, brought us more informa- tion and knew more about the German trenches along our front northwest of Foul than any other individual in the regiment. {,
 "Now we come to the story of a party he led one ."
 And then Mayhew broke in, leaving the rest to conjecture.

1 lure him with.
 But the carcass showed the hunt CT had been very close to success long ago. One rear foot had been lost in trap; two toes were missing from another foot, showing narrow escapes.
 When a string of twenty-two traps, placed according to a diagram, some baited with sound meat and others carrying poisoned meat, had been scorned by the wolf and he had proved that a rifle shot was the least prom ising method for Miller, the hunter , remembered an experience in the northwest of Canada.
 Here, deep in valley, he had driv- en his dog team on a freshly killed caribou. Tracks of wolves indicated they had been driven away from their kill by his approach.
 The dogs were permitted to eat part of the carcass, and just after he had reharnessed and driven away the wolves returned to their prey and lunged furiously into the meat.
 This incident was recalled to Miller by finding a freshly killed calf, one of several the great brute had pulled down withih few days.
 Permitting the dogs to go to the carcass, the hunter drove them away and without dismounting from his horse planted poison in several DOT tions of the kill, placing it in frag- ments torn loose by the dogs.
 The scene when he returned was graphic illustration that his ruse was good. The tracks of the wolf ap- preaching the calf showed the animal raging in fury over the trespass by the dogs. He tore the carcass to shreds, in so doing eating one of the poisoned bits.
 Miller returned to witness the death throes of his old enemy.
 Prof. Gunter of the Normal school recently was hunting early in the morning in the same region and saw a big lobo loping toward him. He dropped the wolf dead with one shot through the neck. The animal weigh ed ITO pounds and had lost the toes from one front paw, his under jaw was distorted from a bullet wound, part of his tail was gone and one ear was slit.

HEN SORTING

IF. A. Chisholm found the poultry culling demonstrations held in differ ent parts of the county successful be- yond his expectations. On Tuesday a demonstration was held at Williams by Robert Penquite, the poultry expert sent out by the state university. On the same day there were two demon strations at the Doney Park farms of Miilt Terrell and Lewis Hobgood. The culling demonstrations were held for the purpose of showing the farmers how to eliminate the non-producing hens from the flock. The system is exceedingly simple. This work will be carried on again next year about this time.

 D. A. Gilchrist, state rodent chief and c. s. Brown, president of the State Farm bureau, described the work of their respective organizations.
 The speakers on Saturday were P. C. Salisbury, president of the Arizona Industrial congress, on the relation ship of business to the farming indus try; R. s.

SCIENTIST SAYS KAYENTA BASKET MAKING INDIANS
 THERE 6OO0 YEARS AGO

Using Kayenta as base and work ing out for a distance of about 15
 miles, s. J. Guernsey of the Peabody
 museum of Harvard University, re-
 turned to Flagstaff last week on ac-
 count of having been bitten by cen- tipede, and although his research work
 has not been completed, he has gain
 ed useful information concerning the
 early or prehistoric people in that lo-
 cality.
 During his stay in the Kayenta re-
 zion, Guernsey explored or examined
 some very large caves, containing re-
 mains of basket workers, who had
 been buried, as was the custom, with implements, weapons and interesting
 ly woven baskets. In one of the caves he unearthed the remains of an adult and six children, in one cist.
 All articles of archaeological inter- est found there have been shipped to Boston, to become a part of the rap idly growing exhibits of the Peabody museum,
 On one occasion Guernsey and his assistants escaped injury, and possibly death, when the roof of the cave fell in shortly after they left. Fortunate ly the debris did not cover the ex- cavations they had made.
 Scientists are trying to classify or differentiate the kinds of "early peo- ple," to find out in what way they were related. The classification, which may be changed, is at present: CD The Basket Makers, who are the earliest people we know anything about. Guernsey states that con- estimate places their exist ence at from 4,000 to coco years ago. Dr. Clark Whistler of the American Museum of Natural History of New York says that 10000 years might not be improbable. The Basket Max CTS were the first agricultural peo- pie of this region, and the reason they are known by this name is that woven baskets are often found in their burials, which are us- ually in caves. (2) The Post Bas- ket Makers were probably the de- Scendants of the Basket Makers, and | changed their mode of living some- l what from that of their ancestors, l and became more agricultural. These Post Basket Makers may have been the forefathers of tribes living in this region today. (3) The Early Cliff | Dwellers may have followed next, while (4) the Cliff Dwellers them selves are the next in classification. These subdivisions may be changed | some day, as scientists will make cor rections if evidence is found to alter hem.
 George Vailliant, a graduate of Harvard university, accompanied Guernsey on his expedition. He plans making archaeology his life work. He s to work with Dr. Kidder of Pecos, Y. M., in the near future.

AGRICULTURAL EXPERTS OF STATE HAD A BIG
 MEETING IN FLAGSTAFF

Many problems of interest to agri- culturists were discussed at the fourth annual summer conference of the agricultural extension service of the University of Arizona, which met at Emerson school, Flagstaff, July 20 to 22. Each year summer and win ter conference are held, this being the third summer conference held here.
 On Thursday morning Dean J. J. Thornber, director of the experiment station at the state university, spoke about the work of the college of agri- culture, outlining the work being done by the experiment stations throughout the state.
 The relations of present activities of specialists to future development of the cattle, dairy and poultry indus tries were presented by E. B. Stanley, R. N. Davis and Robert Penouite of Tucson, specialists in these lines. A. F. Kinnison of Tucson spoke about horticultural work, while field crops were handled by s. P. Clark of the state university.
 H. c. Heard, Maricopa county agri- cultural agent, led the discussion upon the progress of extension work on problems connected with future de- velopment of the county. Special dis cussions were conducted as follows: Maricopa county by Flossie D. Wills, home demonstration agent; Yuma county by J. F.. Mundell, Yuma and Greenlee counties by Roberta Sinclair, home demonstration agent, Greenlee county by Walter F. Gilpin, and Ora ham county by John w. Wright.
 Fridays discussions were centered on problems connected with the future development of the various counties, Cochise, by c. R. Adamson; Cochise and Pinal, by Grace Ryan; Pinal, by E. S. Turville; Pima, by c. B. Brown; Pima and Santa Cruz, by Evelyn Bentey; Yavapai, by c. U. Pickerell; Santa Cruz, by Arnold z. Smith; Co., conino, Apache and Navajo, by Rosa Bouton; Navajo and Apache, by c. R. Fillerup, and Coconino, by F. A. Chis- holm.
 Chisholm stated that Coconino coun- ty is best suited to diversified farm ing-growing of potatoes, grain and cover or green manure crops, and the raising of range cattle, hogs and poultry. In giving a list of crops which he thought would be grown in the county most extensively in the future he mentioned potatoes, oats, wheat, rye, corn, beans and lettuce. To make more profitable the livestock industries here, he suggested the de- velopment of water, increased produc- tion by soil improvement from cover crops and green manure, raising of ] hay crops or lugumes such as alfalfa l and clovers, and improvement of range conditions by having more fenc- ed areas where the stock can be bred | up to higher standard. His remarks also touched upon the raising of live stock on the small scale on the farm. The outstanding problems in Coconino county are soil improvement, rodent

THIS COUNTY EMPLOYED C. H. CROSBY TO COPY
 OLD YAVAPAI RECORDS

Attorney George H. Crosby of Flag staff was recently employed by the county board of supervisors to do a job that for 31 years has needed to be done.
 It was 31 years ago that Coconino county was carved out of Yavapai county. All records, mining locations, deeds, mortgages, water rights, etc, having to do with property located within the boundaries of the present Coconino county have ever since the separation from Yavapai been a part of the Yavapai records. Often this has caused great trouble and added expense in searching titles. And there was always a chance that some of these records, because Yavapai coun- ty had no farther interest in them, might be lost or destroyed.
 Mir Crosby has gone at the job in earnest. Coconino county pays him in the neighborhood of 5000 for the job. He has given bond of $5,000 for faithful and accurate performance of the work, also giving bond to Yavapai county for return of the original rec ords. He has temporarily rented a home in Prescott, as the work will take about six months. In charge of the work under him is Mrs. Margaret Benedict of Tucson, who was an ex- pert with the now defunct J. E. Fancher Co.,, which some time ago undertook but never finished the same job, though all the work they did do on it was turned over to Judge Cros- by. Mrs. Crosby is proof reader. Miss Leprele Crosby and Kent Cros- by, children of Judge and Mrs. Cros- by, and Miss Vera Hostetter of Mesa are typing the records into loose leaf books. Judge Crosby journeys back and forth between here and Prescott at intervals to see that all is going right and to visit his family. Another daughter, Miss Lucille, is keeping house fer him here.

PRESCOTT JUDGE HOPES
 SENTIMENT IS NOT WET

United States Judge William H
 Sawtelle, in his address to the trial jury panel in the federal court stated he had been told that a majority of the people of Yavapai county are op- posed to the national prohibition act
 and he hoped that it was not true. He advised that any juror who would not vote to convict on the prohibition act thereby excused himself. Regardless of personal convictions, he urged the jurors to stand behind the law.
