Using up the Corn

Everybody seems to be worrying
about what to do with the corn sur
plus in this country-that is, every
body except the farmer. He has put
it into his cribs and granaries and is
in many, if not in the majority of
instances "sittin' pretty while wait
ing to see what the world is going
to do about it. In many localities
the corn surplus apears to be a real
problem, though it is not considereu
a serious one around Tempe.
The farmer knows that if the price
will not go up there is a chance
to get a fair profit out of it by feed
ing it to hogs. OF course, he is
paying a pretty stiff price for hogs.
but the animals row rapidly and in

kENNICoTT HEAD SEES GROWTH
IN USE OF COPPER

The growth of copper usage, both
in the United States and abroad, is
mater of much interest to the pro-
ducers of the country, according to
Stephen Birch, president of the Ken
nicott Copper company, who spent
the past few days in the Bisbee dis
trict.
Prior to 1913, the United States
used about one-third of the total
production of United States copper
refineries, Eurpean countries taking
the remainder of the production"
Birch said. But the figures have
been almost reversed in the past II
years, the United States using So per
cent and Europe taking only ~ per
cent" Birch said his figures include
only copper refined in the United
States, which embraces practically all
Of the production of North and South
America, and only a very small por-
ton Of African copper.
THE consumption Of copper in the
United States is actually 10 per
cent greater than in 1913, while the
Europeon consumption has increased
about 25 per cent. And another
noteworthy fact is that Germany
used about 10 per cent of the United
States production last year, more
t1an France and England combined"

WIND STORM SWEEPS
SUPERIOR LEAVING
WRECKAGE IN WAKE

A wind storm, the intensity Of
which, excelling anything of the kind
for years, swept down on Superior at
an early hour on Wednesday morn
ing. There was considerable loss Of
property, but fortunately no one was
injured.
The terrific gale, blowing from the
east, tore to pieces a galvanized gar
age at the head of Hiener Drive on
the Ray road, and carried complete
side wall of the garage two blocks
down the drive, leaving it intact in
front of the Hiener residence.
In the down town district sheet iron
awnings were wrecked in front of the
Western Department store, the Mod
ern cafe and McKinzie's Pinal market.
Brick bats were blown from al
most every brick structure in the
city and many chimneys were demoI-
ished. Trees and shrubbery also suf-
fered as result of the gale. The
storm lasted for about an hour, and
was followed by less heavy winds
throughout the day.-Superior Sun.

TWO DEAD, TWO HURT
IN UNITED VERDE
MINE EXPLOSION

Two men were killed and two 9TH
ers slightly injured in a blast at the
United Verde Copper company's
workings near the city at late hour
last Friday night. Several buildings
were damaged and practically all the
plate glass in Jerome was broken by
the explosion which occurred when a
steam shovel worked into an unex-
ploded pocket of powder
Those killed were James Shelly,
engineman on the shovel, and a trip
perman named Cole who was blown
to pieces. A tooth Of the huge shovel
dipper was hurled through the roof
of hotel, while mine timbers were
found nearly mile from the scene
of the blast which took place on the
160-foot level of the mine.
Several carloads of powder which
had ben placed for discharge short
distance away, where the company
plans to blow away the side of a
mountain rich in copper ore, provi-
dentially failed to explode. A piece
of the steam shovel shot through the
home of a laborer, Salvador Gonzales,
within a foot Of a bed in which two
children lay sleeping.

TEACHERS WOULD CHANGE
THREE SCHOOL LAWS

While the present Arizona school
laws are held to be fair and just
and most comprehensive, still, as with
other matters of legislation, use dis
closes shadings and turns of the
laws which are not as appropriate
as they might be. J. @. Thomas, sup
erintendent of the Flagstaff schools
and a member the state legislative
committee of the Arizona Education
association, told the teachers assem-
bled for the second session of the
northern divisions meeting at Pres
colt Tuesday.
The committee from the northern
part of the state, he said, held a
brief meeting last night, discussing
a recent meeting of the state COM
mittee, and decided to bring before
the body of teachers assembled here
three items felt to be of enough i'm
portance to merit discussion and pos
sible action before the next state
legislature.
There were, first, the school CEN
sus; second, election of school boards
and trustees, and thirdly, compul-
sorry military training. After briefly
outlining the changes which might
be sought in amendment, Mr.. Thom-
as called on various members of the
association for discussion.
In the kindergarten department,
with Miss Elizabeth Ruel in charge,
the following program had been ar
ranged:
Preparing the kindergarten
Child for the First Grade" Dorothy
Sommerville, Kingman; "Skills to be
Developed by the kindergarten
Child;" Discussions on Daily Pro-
grams.

Miss Mata Dexter had these topics:
"Written Language" Miss Lillian

BOY, II, WEDS MOTHER
OF SEVEN CHILDREN

Father of seven hungry boys, the
eldest of whom was older than him
self, was too great burden for Char
les Wedesweiler, II, according to his
admissions in divorce court in Los
Angeles.
Charles told Judge Summerfield
that he had been romantic, and that
his marriage with Mrs. Gertrude
Wells was the result of reading love
tales.
Il never dreamed of the respon-
sibilities of being father to seven
hungry boys" he testified
The young step-father told of elop-
ing with the widow to Arizona The
honeymoon, he said, was short-lived
when his wife put squarely before him
the responsibility of supporting her
and her children.
II did the best ] could for six
months, and then went home to my
father" he said
The. marriage was annulled by the
court.

the ruin from the waters of the ar
roya.
In one grave they excavated they
found 19 pieces of pottery, the most
Mr.. Morris ever found in any one
grave. In addition to the large
amount of pottery they found numer-

TEACHERS OF FLAG HIGH
ALL MEMBERS OF N.E.A.

Washington, D. c., Nov 24.-(Spe-
cial to The Coconino un).-One hun
dred per cent of the teachers of the
high school, Flagstaff, are enrolled in
the National Education association,
according to- report received by j.
w. Crabtree, secretary of the associ-
alton, from the principal, j. @. Thorn
as. This is the first year all the
teachers of the Flagstaff high school
have been members of the associa-
ton. In writing to Mr.. Thomas, ac-
knowledging the report, Mr.. Crab
tree says: "We are proud of your
one hundred percent enrolment. You
and your associates are to be congrat-
ulated on this high professional spir-
it. The certificate granted by the ex-
ecutive committee, shows by a gold
seal called an honor medal, the first
year of your one hundred percent en-
rollncnt. The certificate will be sent
to you Soon."
The association was organized in
1857. Through its efforts the U. S.
bureau of education was established.
1t has more than 100000 members.
1t is the largest professional teach
ers association in the world and the
greatest publisher pf literature on
education. Among the planks in its
platform of service are: (1) compe-
tent teacher in every public school
position in the United States; (2)'
such inducements to enter the pro-
fession as will attract the most tai
ented men and women; (3) the es-
tablishment of department of edu-
cation with a secretary in the presi-
dents cabinet; and (4) ratification
of the constitutional amendment au-
thorizing congress to regulate child
labor.

| COMMISSION DENIES
STAGE LINE PERMIT
TO GRAND CANYON

The Arizona corporation commits
sion denied the application of Ed
Hamilton for certificate of conve-
nience and necessity authorizing the
operation of a freight and passenger
line between Williams and Rowe
Well, serving the intermediate points
of Anita and Grand Canyon.
The granting of this application
was vigorously protested by the San
ia Fe and Fred Harvey.
In its opinion and order the COM
mission found that the proposed stage
line would serve points now being
adequately served by the Santa Fe.
The commission stated that aside
from. tourists to the Grand Canyon
driving their own machines, practical
ly all visitors came in on Santa Fe
trains to Williams. The commission
further stated that while any addi-
tional service over a given route is an
Improvement, nevertheless the Ari-
zona law requires a showing of ne
cessity in addition to convenience,
and inasmuch as it has been the policy
of the commission not to authorize
the operation of more than one stage
line over a given route, where ade-
quate service is being maintained by
the operating line, it felt it was the
duty of the commission to protect the
railway the same as it does the stage
lines in this regard
In concluding its opinion and in en-
tering an order denying the applica-
ton, the commission stated:
1T should be properly said that
the exploitation of the Grand Canyon
by the Santa Fe has brought hund-
reds of thousands of people to Ari-
zona who would otherwise not have
come, and that the railway interests
investment in the undertaking is very
sizeable and running into the millions,
and that the maintenance costs are.
also very considerable, some of the
items being referred to herein. We
regard the Grand Canyon as a Santa
Re proposition and so long as it main
tains adequate service to the points
in question, we feel that the railway
interests should receive the co-opera-
ton and protection of this commits
sion In enjoying whatever fruits it
may be able to harvest. We further
feel that without the Santa Fe this
scenic wonder would simply be bar
rem spot, and being inaccessible with
out the railway and without proper
hotel accommodations, the place
would be practically isolated.
From careful consideration of
the evidence, we are of the opinion
and find that adequate service be-
tween the points in question and at
the Grand Canyon is being maintain
ed by the Santa Fe interests and that
the public convenience and necessity
does not require the operation of this
or any motor vehicle freight and pas
senger line"

STATE HIGHWAY
DEPARTMENT TO
LET 200 MEN GO

Two hundred employees of the
state highway department, engaged
IN construction work and in the ward
and office will be affected by what
w. c. Lefebvre, state highway en-
gineer terms a drastic curtailment
of the activities of the Arizona high
way department" Approximately
700 persons are employed in the de-
partment.
Lack of funds to meet the semi
monthly salary payments according to
the state law, was given by Lefebvre
as the reason for the cut in person
mel which, he stated, probably would
not last after adjournment of the
legislature scheduled for early in
March.
Highway maintenance activities
will not be suspended, he added
The highway engineer blames the
failure of the last Legislature to pro-
vide funds for the department for the
necessity of suspending construction
work. All forces engaged on con-
struction projects will be laid off
pending the appropriation of funds
for carrying on this branch of the
departments activities, according to
Lefebvre.
The cut is necessitated, he explain
ed, by the fact that contractors es-
Inmates on contracts already made
and outstanding must be met. It will
not therefore, affect work being done
or authorized to be done by con-
tract The department will not
contract any Indebtedness beyond
that authorized by the legislature as
there will be no funds to meet such
Indebtedness and comply with other
provisions of the law.
