GOPHERS KILLED WITH
POISONED SWEET POTATOES

Don Gilchrest Of the United States
biological survey, conducted gopher
demonstration in the Willow Greek
district, shtbving the farmers the eff
feet that poisoned yams have on the
gopher, which is listed among pests
that destroy the majority of the grass.
1t is estimated by the farmers of
that district that more than 40 per
cent of the alfalfa crop was destroyed
by the pests. In some instances the
destruction was so great that a large
number of acres had to be replanted.
At a cost of 25 cents per acre the ro-
dents can be destroyed. The poison
will be furnished to all farmers and
ranchers by Agricultural Agent Harry
Stewart, free of cost.
Recent raids on gophers have been
conducted by Campbell and Francis,
ranchers of this county, and it is es-
timated by them that 95 per cent Of
the pests were destroyed.-Journal-

A FEW DOS FOR HUNTERS
DURING DEER SEA SON

Take your license with you. 1t will
save you time, inconvenience, EN-
barassment and possibly money. 1t
will save the game department lot
of bother and expense, money which
could be used to better advantage in
propagation of fish and game.
Be sure you see his horns! If you
can't see them the chances are E'she
hasn't any"-it's a man, calf or a
burro. At least two men have been
shot by friends while deer hunting in
Arizona. Each was a case of shooting
into moving brush.
If you are poor enough hunter or
poor enough sport to kill a doe, be
game enough to take care of the meat.
It's a shame to leave it to rot.
Take enough meat with you to last
till October Is, if you plan to be in
the hills that long. Some Of the boys
paid fines last year for using quail
for camp meat during the first part
of deer and turkey season.

PROCEEDINGS AGAINST
CAMERON ARE DISMISSED

Harold Baxter, special assistant at
torney general of the United States,
announced he had been authorized to
dismiss contempt proceedings pending
against United States Senator Ralph
H. Cameron of Arizona, for the sena-
tors alleged trespass of Bright Angel
trail in Grand Canyon.
Agents of Senator Cameron, who
are alleged to have been in possession
of the Indian gardens on the trail for
many years, have vacated, the last of
them coming up to the rim of the
canyon last Friday" Mr.. Baxter said.
The dismissal of the proceedings was
authorized by Attorney General
Stone, providing the present status
remains unchanged according to the
prosecutor.
"The government has gained its sole
purpose in the gation-unquali
possession of the trail-and there
fore there is no further cause for
proceedings against Senator Cam
eron," he added.
Rangers of the national park serv-
ice Immediately took possession Of the
gardens when they were vacated, and
government surveyors began to remap
the trail as it extends from the south
rim to the Colorado river.
Mr.. Baxter also announced the sec
retary Of the interior "is about to is
sue instructions for the patrol of the
Grand Canyon property to prevent
further trespassing."
Motion to dismiss injunction pro-
ceedings instituted by the government
in the court Of United States District
Judge Fred G.. Jacobs of Phoenix,
against Seth Lilly, ct. al, alleged oc
cupants of the gardens, to prevent
further pollution of streams in the
Grand Canyon may also be made, ac-
cording to the prosecutor. Lilly and
his associates have left the govern
ment in full possession of the springs
and streams flowing through the can
yon, he said.
The end of years of litigation for
possession Of the trail is expected to
close with the dismissal Of the pro-
ceedings against Senator Cameron. A
decree was entered by United States
District Judge Sawtelle on March %,
1917, and was affirmed by both the
circuit court of appeals Of the ninth
district, and the United States su-
preme court, which sustained the
government and elected the senator
upon the ground that he had no valid
mineral location in the Grand Canyon.

MAY PAVE OLD TRAILS
HIGHWAY THRU WILLIAMS

A public meeting was held in the
justice of the peace office Wednesday
night for the purpose of considering
the paving of the Old Trails road
through Williams. Captain Wright,
county engineer, addressed the assem-
bly, telling of the opportunity for se-
curing federal aid on the project, and
presented figures on the approximate
cost of the paving.
A good attendance of those owning
property along the street under con-
sideration, was present. Many who ex-
pressed their opinions on the question
seemed rather favorably inclined
although still desiring to know ex-
plicitly what the paving cost Flagstaff
taxpayers along the Old Trails high
way through the town. Other property
owners in Williams very naturally
hope that those along the route may
see where the proposition will pay
them, but the decision is strictly up to
those who will be called upon to meet
the expense Williams News.

ARIZONA
TEXAS PRODUCE TO BE
BANNED BY ARIZONA

Arizona, Saturday, established an
embargo against shipments of live
stock and feed products from four
counties near Houston, Texas, which
were placed under a federal quaran-
tine Friday because of a reported out
break of the foot and mouth disease.
Announcement that the embargo
would be invoked Immediately, bar
ring entry of hay, grain, straw and
cattle from the affected area, was
made by DR.. S. E. Douglas, state
veterinarian.
Notifications of the order by Ari-
zona will be contingent on such ac-
ton by the federal government, DR..
Douglas said
The area under quarantine consists
of the counties of Harris, Galveston,
Brazoria and Fort Bend. Railroads en-
tering these counties have established
an embargo on all cattle, sheep and
swine, it was announced.
Official information of the outbreak
was carried to state officials Friday
in a telegram from Dr. F. L. Schnei-
der Of Albuquerque, N. M, in charge
of the United States bureau of animal
industry and husbandry of Arizona
and New Mexico.
DR.. Schneider declared the Houston
outbreak had no connection with the
lately suppressed epizootic in Cali
fornia. He expressed the belief that
the cattle disease had been conveyed
to the Texas counties from South
America. Territory outside of the
Houston district will not be affected
by the Arizona embargo.
State officials asserted that the pre-.
vailing embargo against the four
Texas counties would be sufficient to
guard against a spread of the malady.
Extension or modification of the order
by the state will be guided on slid
ing basis in accordance with the re-
strictions imposed by the federal gov
ernment, it was announced.

STATE RECEIVES COLORADO
FILMS FOR NXHIBITION

Prior to his departure for the
Natural Bridge to spend several days
vacationing, Major George Kelly, state
historian, announced that he had re-
ceived three reels of moving picture
film, taken by Col. William Birdseye
on his trip through the canyons of the
Colorado river in September, 1923.
The reels will be available to all
high schools in. the state for showing
to the students, and also to any
theaters or societies or other organi-
cations who desire to show them,
Major Kelly stated. The pictures will
not be shown for commercial purposes,
he said, but only for educational pur-
poses.
Some time ago, the three reels of
film, showing the canyons of the
river, the various dam sites, and the
waters of the river on a rampage
during a flood, and other points Of
interest about the river, were shown
in Phoenix under the direction of E.
G. LaRue, chief hydraulic engineer of
the geological survey.
The pictures were taken by Colonel
Birdseye during the trip through the
canyons of the river from Green
River, Wyo., to Needles. Fear was
felt for the safety Of the party be-
cause of the flood waters poured into
the river by the Little Colorado, and
for several days. the party was over
due at Peach Springs, but finally
emerged from the canyons without
having experienced any great difficult
ties.

WILLIAMS MAN FATALLY
INJURED AT PHOENIX

James Hudson of Williams was
probably fatally, and his wife serious
ly injured at Phoenix this week, when
the automobile in which they were
riding was overturned in a collision
with an automobile driven by Conrad
Hess, $40 North Fourth avenue, ac-
cording to a report to the office Of
Sheriff Jerry Sullivan.
Mr. and Mrs. Hudson were taken to
st. Joseph's hospital by the ambulance
of j. T. Whitney. Hudson suffered a
fractured skull and other injuries, and
Mrs. Williams suffered a fractured
arm and cuts and bruises about the
face and body, it was reported. Both
automobiles were wrecked, according
to Chief Criminal Deputy Sheriff H.
C. Parsons, who with Deputy Sheriff
Clarence Coleman investigated the ac-
cident.
An unidentified young woman also
was injured. She was brought into
town before the Investigators could
learn her name.
The accident occurred at the inter-
section of Fourteenth avenue and
Comeback road.

PHOENIX INHABITED BEFORE
DISCOVERY OF AMERICA

Arizona is land of the prehistoric
ages, even older than Rome itself, and
the site of Phoenix probably was in
habited 1000 years before Columbus
discovered America, according to DR..
O. A. Turney, prominent Phoenix
archaeologist.
In an address before the real es-
tate board he declared "we are living
in land of forgotten America"
America has not yet been discov-
cred by Americans" he said Europe
is living and thriving on its antiquity,
making it romantic to visitors"
Scientists have devoted consider
able time to the study of ancient Ari-
zona and number have agreed that
structures once on the site of Phoenix
were older than Rome and were in
habited 1000 years before Columbus
discovered America"

DOG TOOK A CHANCE
WITH A LIVE PORCUPINE

pie, in faithfully defending his mas
ter's property against prowlers at
tackled and drove away a porcupine.
In the retreat Tige became overbold
and in the mad rush was showered
about the head and nose with hun
dreds of the tiny wicked barbs. Work
men captured the dog, tied him so he
could not bite, and with a pair of au-
tomobile pliers pulled the quills from
his swollen face. When the operation
was over one of the doctors from a
ward nearby furnished ether and an
tiseptic lotions and Tige was sent on
his way sadder and wiser dog.

HOLD DRIVER TO BLAME

Responsibility for the accident
which caused the death of Lewis Kipp,
aged Phoenix Indian was placed by a
coroner's jury upon John Tallavah,
driver of motor truck, under which
the Indian was crushed to death after
being knocked from his horse. The
jury's verdict held Tallavah negligent
for failing to stop his machine after
seeing Kipp's horse had become un-
manageable on the road and derelict
in his duty for failing to report the
accident to authorities. Kipp was 76
years old.

Johnson addition Mexican woman of
middle age, who means and sobs out
her unintelligible story in the Bisbee
city jail where she is being held on a
charge of numbering her four-day-old
child Pedro Zecaya whom the birth
records show to be the father, has not
been arrested by the police, and in all
probability never will be charged with
the crime, for it is not believed he had
hand in administering lye that au-
topsy physicians claimed caused the
infants death.

gineer.
The signs by day have black and
white lettering, ''R. R" and by night a
red reflection denoting danger. The
red glare is made by the headlights

cially prepared metal plate. The
glare can be seen for distance of

PLAN TO GROW LOCO
KILLING FUNGUS

Experiments are being made by the
University of Arizona, in cooperation
with d. w. Rogers, farm agent of
Apache county, for the development of
loco-killing fungus.
The loco weed has caused much
damage, not only in Yavapai county
but also in every other county of the
state. The weed has been responsible
for the loss of thousands of cattle and
horses in the southwest in years gone
by. If a fungus can be developed that
will eradicate the plant, it will mean
much to the stock industry. Some
ranges have had to be abandoned be-
cause of the prevalence of the weed.
