BRING LIVESTOCK
TO THE STATE FAIR

Progressive breeders of livestock
will want to have their animals at the
State Fair on October 30 to Novem-
ber 4th. says DR.. r. H. Williams. Ami
nal Husbandman, University of Ari-
zona. 1t is not to win ribbons and
premium money that induces all the
best breeders to show their stock.
They feel their animals are worth
showing the public, and they also
want to compare their purebreds with
the best in the State. The State Fair
is the rule to measure herd type
and usefulness of the animals Much
valuable information can be secured
by being an active Snowman rather
than an interested spectator, Arizona
stockmen should have big represen-
tation OF horses, cattle sheep and
hogs at the coming Fair.

will be distributed by the Forest Ser

These moneys are returned to states
in which National Forests are located
for expenditure upon schools and

An additional 1Ofs OF the total re-

This sum for the present year amounts
to $27.S19.50 for Arizona. While the

MAKING sILAcE

In producing first class quality OF
silage the same rules apply that are
used in preserving fruit, that is, all
air must be forced out and decaying
bacteria eliminated
This is an easy matter, says S. P.
Clark, Extension Agronomist, Univer-
sity of Arizona Wherever air comes
in contact with the silage. there will
be found pocket of spoiled silage
Frequently leak will be found
around the doorway. This can be
prevented at filling time by covering
the door with strip of tar paper
which oyerlaps on the silo wall sew
eral inches.
Tamping and packing the silage is
the most important job of the entire
silo filling operation, To insure pro-
per packing the crop must be at the
right stage of maturity and have suf-
ficient moisture present to pack firm
ly. If for any reason the crop is too
dry, water must be added uniformly
while the silo is being filled.
The silage must be thoroughly pack.
ed around the edges and the heavy.
part distributed over the surface.
To insure the proper chemical pro-
cess taking place the silage should be
cut about one half inch long, have suf.
ficient water to pack well and then
be thoroughly tramped to exclude all
the air.

Many couple agrees before
marriage to avoid the domestic re-
sponsibilities and live life of free
dom from care and domestic duty.
Such an agreement is tantamount to
premeditated social murder.
The blacklist page of American
history is the divorce page. To di-
vorce one couple in every FIVE mar
riages is crime against society,
home, and God.
Many divorces are sought by wo-
men because their husbands are
cruel, or they fail to support them
or they have deserted them.
Any man who deliberately prac-
tees cruelty against his wife and

vieted and whipped in the public
square for six months.
No couple should be allowed to
marry unless each party to the con-
tract could produce a certificate
showing a sound, clean body and
sane mind for three preceding gem
erations, and a spotless moral char
acter.
No couple should be allowed to
mMry unless they could also show
that they understand and are will
ing to assume and discharge the OBJ
legations that matrimony and
well-ordered home imposes upon a
couple.
Parents are to blame for much of
the present-day matrimonial loose
ness. They are too anxious TO
marry their daughters.

Economy In Public Affairs
The Democratic party is for the
curtailment of public expenditures.
Fundamentally and always 1t believes
in economy in the management of
public affairs. and its record yindi'
Gates this claim. but in time like
the present. when every tax is
burden and every unessential tax an
offense, the principle becomes OF first
magnitude. There must be a reduc.
tion OF taxes by economy in the ad-
ministration OF our governmental af-
fairs, and the creation OF taxable
wealth through encouragement Of
legitimate capital, There must be
an end of squandering, of inefficien'
cy, of idle ease and usless excur-
sions. There must be that efficient
service, which is of greatest benefit
to the people themselves, and most
conducive to their welfare and hap
piness, but its cost must be kept
down to the minimum.
Development Of the State
The Democratic party strongly
favors the maximum development OF
the states magnificent natural re-
sources--the opening OF her mineral
the broadening Of her
fertile farms; the harnessing of her
floods and their conversion into
agencies for the making of homes.
1t favors every feasible plan for the

The election laws of the state are
sadly in need of revision They are
conflicting, contradictory. and in

nit abuses which threaten the sane.

particularly defective.

equal representation in every polite

particularly awarding the women

Capital, Labor and the Man Between
The Democratic party represents
no class, II stands squarely for the
equal rights of high and low, rich
and poor. 1t favors the encourage
ment by all proper means of every
legitimate business and enterprise.
1t is not opposed to wealth, except
as wealth is gained by conditions and
through processes which create pow
erty. 1t is the friend of honest cap.
ital--the friend OF honest labor. II
will continue to be consistent, and
in the process of dealing Justly with
both capital and labor will not be
unmindful OF the rights Of the great
mass Of plain people between.
The Women Electors Of Arizona
The Democratic party enfranchised
the women of Arizona, The Demo

the enfranchisement of women upon
obtaining statehood, Democratic leg,
