NAVAJO COUNTY WANTS
REHEARING IN DISPUTE
OVER BOUNDARY LINE

Petition for the rehearing of the
matter of the boundary dispute has
been filed in the Arizona supreme
court by Navajo county. The petition
asks that the judgment of dismissal
of the action in favor of Apache
county be vacated and that a rehear-
ing be granted and judgment issued
in favor of Navajo county.
The petition sets forth three rea-
sons for a rehearing, one setting
forth that the legislature in its act
intended that the range line should
be adhered to as the boundary bet
ween the two counties, another that
the court erred in comparing the dis
pute with the Yuma Maricopa county
line dispute in that the latter in
volved a meridian which is a fixed

NATIONAL COMMITTEE is TO
STUDY COLORADO PROJECT

A thorough study of the entire
Colorado river project, designed to
furnish a definite plan for the con-
troll of floods, tn development of
the rivers water power, and the
storage of water for irrigation pur-
poses in the lower Colorado basin
will be made by committee of five
engineers now being organized at
Washington by Secretary Work.
F. E. Weymouth, chief engineer of
the reclamation service; Herman
Stabler of the geological survey,
and William Kelly Of the federal
power commission already have been
appointed to the committee and Sec
reta1y Weeks has been asked to
select man to represent the war
department. The sixth member will
not be connected with the govern
ment. Secretary Work said he de-
sired the recommendations of especi-
ally qualified men on the subject
which has been under investigation
for two years or more. Various bills
have been introduced in congress
proposing 20 authorize dams on the
Colorado river.

COCONINO COUNTY WILL GET
$131,72O TO BUILD FLAGSTAFF
ANGEL SECTION OF HIGHWAY

Coconino county will receive only
$131, ,72O to build the Flagstaff Angel
section of the National Old Trails
highway instead of 100000, accord
ing to decision reached last week
in Phoenix between representatives of
the U. S. Bureau of public roads,
the state highway department and
the National forest service.
Government estimates of the cost
of grading the road between Flagstaff
and Angell-the bridge and culvert
work already has been done-will
be about $4,000. The contract for
this will be let next month or in
April
This will leave $4,000 for surfac-
ing. 1t is believed that instead of
letting a contract for the surfacing,
the government will do that work
with its own forces, to make the $780,
900 go just as far as possible.

MAY GIVE REDUCTIONS ON
EARNED INCOMES OF $50

Income tax payers got their first
slice of the proposed tax relief when
the house ways and means committee
adopted the recommendation of Sec
retary Mellon to allow the special
25 per cent reduction in the tax on
incomes which are earned.
Ali taxable incomes under $4,000
were defined as earned for purposes
of this reduction, while $4,000 was
set on the maximum amount of in
come on which the reduction could
be taken.
Treasury estimates show that about
100000 tax payers have incomes
of less than $4,000 and automatically
could deduct from their tax when
computed 25 per cent of its total.
This action is not final but it will
be pant of the revised law should
it pass congress and receive the sig
nature of the Messenger.

between the two counties.
The case was filed directly in the
supreme court by Navajo county and
an opinion was handed down in the
case recently. Navajo county con-
tended in its complaint that Apache

of land 1894 feet wide and several
miles line,, which rightfully belonged
to Navajo county.
The strip involved the sawmill
town of Cooley and its sawmills,
which had heretofore been assessed

Ducks Use of Wine

Do ducks use their wings while
swimming UNDER water? The ques.
ton is discussed frequently among
sportsmen and nature students. and
opinions sometimes differ. Testi-
mony Of reliable authorities, says
Popular Mechanics Magazine, sup
ports the belief that various species
of ducks and grebes, looms and
other. diving birds do not use their
wings when swimming benehth the
surface for food or In trying to
escape capture. A rudy duck
was observed on Lake Michigan not
long ago, feeding in fifteen or twen-
ty feet Of clear water. As it got
well started on it's downward
plunge. the wings. about two-thirds
extended. were used in quick, short
strokes, at the rate Of about one a

Example of the Bee

1t is very important to remem-
ber says John Burroughs, the great
naturalist, that the bee does not
get honey from the flowers; it
makes honey from what 1t gets
from the flowers. What it gets
from the flowers is nothing but
sweetened water. The bee gets its
sweet water, retires, thinks 1t over
and by a private process makes it's
honey. So many nature writer's
fail to profit by the example of the
bee. They go into the woods and
come out again and write about
their experience-but they don't
give us honey. They don't retire
and subject what they find in the
woods to private process. They
give us just a little sweet water,
pretty thoroughly diluted. l have
tried for many years not to give the
world just a bare record, but to
flavor it with my own personality.
