MOVEMENT STARTED TO
COMBINE LIVESTOCK BOARDS

For the purpose of making more
effective the work of the sheep SAN
itary board and the livestock sanitary
board, and to remove them from all
legged political influence, a movement
has been started to combine these
two state agencies, and in all prob
abilities bill to this effect will be
presented at the next session of the
legislature.
The movement was initiated some
weeks ago at a meeting of the stock
men of Graham and Cochise counties,
meeting at Wilcox. At that time q
resolution was adopted providing for
law which would divide the state
into five districts, from each of which
the people would elect one member of
the state sanitary board.
Since then, the idea has been broad
ened to include the operation of the
sheep sanitary board. Under exist

SALT RIVER MAY ABANDON
LONG STAPLE COTTON

Already there are indications that
the far-famed Pima long staple cot
ton wiz be almost abandoned next
season in the Salt River valley, where
it has been brought into comparison
this year with Acala and other me-
dunn staple varieties. Pima has been
found much more costly, and doesn't t
bring enough on the market to war
rant the added expense.

ing arrangements two separate boards
are maintained, and the appointment
of its members are made by the gov
ernor. This results in an overlapping
of activities, it is claimed, as well as
considerable confusion in the matter
of selecting inspectors.
The functioning of the sheep sani-
tary board is said to be especially
weak under the present arrangement.
Because of meager appropriation,
the work of inspection is carried on in
a perfunctory manner, the members of
the board seldom meet, and all of the
routine work of the board is carried
on by young lady stenographer who
occupies a desk in the governors of

State sanitary forces are at loss
to understand the action of the Cal

tic regulations regarding the ship
ments of sheep from this state. DR..
S. e. Douglas, state veterinarian, is
authority for the statement that the
sheep this year are in more healthy
condition than ever before, and this
is borne out in a letter which Gov
ernor Hunt received from Lou Char

commission. 1t reads:

"The public be damned"
I thank you. DOUG.
In the third grade at Emerson
school, the teacher recently decided to
have a sort of picnic interval during
the next day and asked that each of
the pupils bring an apple or some
thing to eat, explaining that during
the eating they would have good, in
formal time. Next morning all but
one of the pupils came prepared with
something for the picnic except one
little boy, who brought nickel. He
asked if he might go down town and
buy something for the picnic, which
was to be held that afternoon, several
hours later. The teacher consented,
and the little boy came down town. He
bought an ice cream cone.
DR.. E. S. Miller recalls the time
when Tom Pulliam had a store in
Flagstaff. There were several reser-
walton Indians in the store one day.
Tom, standing behind the counter,
pulled out his false teeth and laid
them on the counter. Another man
took out a glass eye and laid it on
the counter. Tom Devine, who then
lived here but now is in Kingman, was
sitting on the counter. He carefully
undid the straps that fastened on his
false leg, then, with a kick, landed
the leg, shoe and all, in the middle OF
the floor. Accounts brought in "a
hours later signified that the Indians
were still running.

GIRLS CLEE CLUB
GIVES CLEVER OPERA
''The Maid and The MILDLY Presented
To Capacity House

1.-THE Maid and the Mildly a very
clever comic %0peretta was given at
the Opera House, Wednesday evening.
by the Girls Glee Club of the Miller
High School, before a house filled to
it's capacity.
The plot of the operetta was woven
about the mysterious Anita" who
was claimed both by the Spanish
Count, and Billy, the MILDLY. Valerie
Vane. the Maid. who is In love with
the MILDLY, and the rest are under the
impression that Anita Is a beautiful
Spaniard, and for a time their ro-
nance is threatened with shipwreck,
until at last it is explained that Anita
is-a parrot.
The musical numbers of the operetta
were delightful, as were the various
dances. Some clever bits OF acting
were contributed by little Gwendolyn
Dunn and Lenore Flick. The costumes
worn were truly beautiful, and the
midGies i'm their white sailor suits and
caps were a pleasing background.
It would be hard to say who was
best, as every member of the glee
club played their part in a ann
which could not be improved o n. The
play went through smoothly, without
a hitch, and attested to the weeks of
hard practice that had been given to
the work, under the supervision of
their director, Mae s.. Olson, work for
which they are well repaid by the
success of the operetta.
Two very pleasing numbers by the
Boys Glee Club were rendered during
the intermission between acts.
