TAILED HUNDRED TIMES
TOO MANY y

One may get an idea, perhaps,
how much salt to sprinkle on the
tales of millions spent in making
movie picture productions1by read
ing the producers advertisement of
Shutdown" in last weeks Saturday
Evening Post.
The advertisement told adjective
ly and circumstantially about the
last big drive of 250,000 cattle"
from Utah down into Old Mexico.
The fact is, there were about $500
of these cattle, which were moved,
partly by train, by the Grand Can
yon Cattle Co. from Houserock
valley, in Arizona, to the company's
range in Mexico. Roy Stewart, the
leading man of the production, was
in Flagstaff several times while
the picture was being filmed. If a
couple of ciphers mean nothing in
dealing with numbers of cattle,
probably they mean less in dealing
with numbers of dollars.

All of the houses advised that they
couldn't be sold at par at 5 per cent.
The law requires that the bonds
cannot be sold at below par; hence it
was necessary to proceed very care
fully in fixing the interest rate.
The bonds will mature between 10
and 40 years from date of sale. The
last $51 900 worth will be sold with
the option of their redemption at any
time after 80 years.

ANNfL ERSARY OF DEATH OF

Wednesday, November IL, was the
eighth anniversary of the death of
DR.. Percival Lowell, founder of Lo-
we'll observatory of this city and for
many years preceding his death a
noted citizen here. DIR. Lowell's as
Economical researches and his writings

Mars, on which he was and still is
regarded by astronomers everywhere

keep his memory alive during the CEN

MARK A. MOORE POST
DOING GOOD WORK

The Mark A. Moore post American
legion has not made much fuss but
have been doing the things that help
along the ex-service man who really
needs help. 1t is fine sort of a way
to do things. The local post has not
had time or money to advertise to the
world what they were doing for the
boys in need, but it has counted
heavily in doing the things that pro-
vided for the we'll being and comfort
of men who "did their bit" for
America. AS Commander Carl May
hew suggests--when a man is all
taken up with the "scrap" he hasn't
much time to advertise his ability to
scrap"

SPORTSMEN WANT DEER
SHOOTING POSTPONED
AND SEVERAL RESERVES

The Flagstaff Game Protective as
sociation at its open meeting held in
the court house Tuesday evening went
on record as being opposed to any
shooting of the deer in the Kaibab
game preserve until George McCor-
mick is given an opportunity to try
to thin out the herd by driving them
across the Colorado river. The opinion
of the members was practically unan-
imous that the deer should not be
slaughtered until every other method
of thinning them out had been ex-
hausted.
Mr.. Mccormick was present at the
meeting and outlined his plans for
bringing the deer across the Colorado.
After a thorough discussion of the
matter a resolution was passed asking
the governor and officials of the agri-
cultural department to permit no
shooting in the preserve until after
December Is, by which time Mr.. Nc
Cormick will have demonstrated his
ability or failure to deliver the deer
to this side.
Other matters taken up were the
arrangements being made by the
state association to establish several
game preserves over LHe+ SIdI6 anu
methods for securing necessary funds
for putting sufficient paid game war
dens in the field to protect the game
and especially the deer which are to
be brought from the Kaibab.
1t is quite probable that bills will
be presented to the coming legislature
covering both questions. The asso-
citation proposes to urge the establish
ment of about five permanent game
preserves in the northern part of the
state where game will be protected
and allowed to multiply. One of these
will be located just this side of Grand
Canyon in the neighborhood of Grand
View, another to include the San
Francisco mountains and still another
in the neighborhood of Oak Creek and
Sycamore canyon. Others will be To-
Gated later The state association will
also sponsor a bill in the legislature
for an appropriation of $4,000 to pay
the salaries of deputy game wardens.
From correspondence received by
the association it would appear that
few streams in the state will be stock
ed with fish the coming season as the
supply is very short, even in the CEN
tral and eastern states.
