FLAGSTAFF LUCKIER

According to the Gila Bulletin, Sill
yer City water conditions are more
than critical. 1t is the exception if
water is available in the city mains
now for more than 80 minutes a day.
The ella forest service is cooperating
with the city as far as possible in
water shed protection but it would ap-
pear the city was aroused to its need
too late. Most of the water shed
above Silver City is privately owned
land which has been severely over
grazed and stripped of its forest
cover as well. (Daily bulletin of U. S.
forest service).
Flagstaff can well be thankful her
water shed has been protected in the
past We have no cattle or sheep
grazing on our water shed. Grass is
reported to be knee high all over this
area and sufficient trees and small
vegetation is present in large quanti-
ties to hold the snow and rain that
may fall, thus preventing runoff and
conditions similar to~those at Silver
City, N. M.

CEOIN-WAS
MAN; FINE AND JAIL

Mike Ceoin doesn't hive in Winslow,
but in Flagstaff He wasn't in an
automobile with three companions and
some booze. And when the car turned
over east of town and hurt the driver,
it wasn't Mike that went under the
doctors and later under the sheriff's
care.
Mike hasn't a scar on him. But he
owned the house in which Sam Reyz
lived. Sam was the man driving the
Dodge car borrowed" from Winslow.
The Sun reporter, perhaps because the
informant couldn't pronounce Sans
last name, was given Mikes instead.
Mike, naturally, was somewhat an
noyed when his friends began to ask
about his accident which he didn't
have.
Sam was taken before justice of
the Peace Tom Pulliam who gave him
$50 fine and 80 days in county Jail.

discovered three books left in his car
parked in front Of the forest service

hard to look at left them there. Be-
ing a very honest young man, and
thinking.that green dresses were not
SO common, Orville set out in quest

encountered had on green raiment OF
some description-old and young, slim
and fat, all were decked out in that
verdant color. Mr.. Pendergass still

News comes of the birth of the

we ought to wait until it is an even

cigars are still popular here, and
maybe not. He'll read this, anyway,

with several large and beautiful color

them up. All this advertising we get
for nothing, and will get more and
more of. And it means constantly in

HOPE HE BEATS ED

R. A. Haight of Alton, H., arrived
in Flagstaff on Monday to spend the
rest of the summer visiting his son,
E. A. Haight, cashier of the Arizona
Central bank, and Mrs. Haight.
Somehow, noting his erect, active car
riage, one gets the idea that Ed is a
good deal younger than at first sus-
pected. It'll do the souls of lot of
the golf fans good if his dad trims
Ed on the links.

MAN HAS RIGHT TO
SPANK HIS WIFE
JUDGE so HOLDS IN RECENT
SUPERIOR COURT TRIAL IN
COLOUITT COUNTY.

MOULTRIE, Ga.-Under certain
conditions a man has a right to spank
his wife Judge Ogden Persons held
in superior court here last week.
His decision came in the case OF
Fred Bannister, young farmer, indicted
on a charge of assault and battery
brought by his wife, who objected to
being spanked.
Testimony at the trial tended to
show Mrs. Bannister had slapped her
husbands mother and then had de-
clined to apologize
The young husband took his wife
away from the house-so that the
chastisement would be in private
and there laid her across his knees
and administered mild spanking, 1t
was testified.
Before arguments in the case were
begun Judge Persons directed a YER
dict in favor of the defendant.

BACK-TO-FARM MOVE
is SEEN IN FIGURES
FARM BUYING INCREASED AZ
PER CENT LAST YEAR. VAL
UE OF GEORGIA LANDS UP.

ATLANTA. Ga-Farm buying in
creased forty-two per cent last year,
according to so good an authority as
the director OF the rural land division
of the National Association of Real
Estate Boards; and if his forecast
comes true there will be an increase
this year OF fifty per cent
To whatever causes that trend may
be ascribed it is certainly cheering,
officials of the Georgia Deparemtn OF
Agriculture assert. Various factors
may be involved, the officials say-a
return to the soil by some who aban-
doned it in the lean years, an accession
of new investors to the province OF
the pillow, an expansion OF their hold
ings by those already engaged in agrl-
culture. Whether these or other things
have figured chiefly in the result, agri-
cultural department officials point out,
it is evident that the underlying con-
dition of any of them is mounting
measure of agricultural prosperity.
Back of these immediate crcum-
stances. agriculturists say, is a realiza-
ton bv men of foresight that we'll
situated lands are certain to multiply
in value, if not within a year or so
then at most within decade. Atten-
ton is called to the fact that the ma
tional department OF agriculture an
nounced last year, after extensive sur
veys, that some thirty-eight millions
of acres would have to be added to the
existing crop lands to support a pop
ulation of one hundred and fifty mil
lions OF persons, which number will
be reached by 1855 if not sooner.
These facts in view, it was asserted,
it needs no son of a prophet to see
that lands as fertile as Georgla's and
as near to great centers OF industry
and trade will increase i'll value surely,
substantially and with ever..groWing
momentum. What agriculturists here
and in other sections of the state would
like to see is not land buying for spec
ulation, but land buying for develop
ment.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Vice Pres
ident Dawes will carry to the country
in public addresses the issue he made
with the senate in his inaugural adj
dress for a revision of the rules, SO as
to prohibit one man hlibuster.
His first address on the subject will
be delivered at the annual luncheon
OF The Associated Press at New York

expects to speak in Ohio and Indiana
After his inaugural address, which
astonshed and aroused the senate. the
vice president told delegation from
Marietta, Ohio. which called on him
at his hotel, that the matter of the
amendment of the rules was one that
would have to be taken to the country
over the heads of senators unless the
senate acted.
Senators Underwood, of Alabama,
and Copeland, OF New York, demo-
Gratis, subsequently introduced resolu-
tions for change OF the rules, but
the senate took no action further than

STARS HEAT FOUND
GREATER THAN SUMS
OBSERVER RE
PORTS ON CALCULATING
OF TEMPERATURES.

Estimating the diameters OF ten OF
the brighter stars by separating their
heat into long spectrum and meas
uring the heat of the different colors
and then calculating the probable tenn
peratures of each OF these heavenly
bodies was the work OF DR.. I. U. Ab-
bot director of the Astrophysical Ob-
servatory of the Smithsonian lnstitu-
ton, during a recent series OF field eX-
periments, whose results have Just
been made public.
A star having nearly three times the
heat of the sun was among those Cd
served bv DIR. Abbot. This was Beta
Rigel. having an estimated absolute
temperature Of 10000 degrees cent?
grade. compared with the suns o,OOO
degrees centigrade.
Other stars observed with a greater
temperature than that of the sun were
Vega, absolute temperature, l4,OOO de-
grees centigrade; Sirius, the brightest
Star in the heavens, 1900; Procyon,
5000. The other stars were Capella,
$500; Aldebaran. 5000; Beta Pegasi,
1850; Betelgeuese, 1000, and Alpha
Herculis. $500. The last two have an
estimated diameter 500 times greater
than that of the sun.
DR.. Abbot used in this work radio
meter, constructed under the direction
of DIR. E. F. Nichols, pioneer in meas
uring the heat OF the stars. Utilizing
the giant telescope at the Mount Viii
son Observatory in California, with
its 100-inch rejecting lens, DR.. Abbot
was enabled to obtain fairly accurate
measurements of the heat OF the dif-
ferent colors, even far into the mira
rod
