MISSING MAN OF BUM
BLEBEE DECLARED DEAD

Pending solution of the mystery Of
Tom Glasgow, aged prospector, for
whose body a fruitless search was
conducted near Bumblebee last De-
cember, the law calls him dead.
An administrator for his estate, A.
L. Hammond, was appointed in pro-
bate court on petition of two brothers
of Glasgow, living in Oklahoma and
Texas and Glasgow's property, con-
sisting of unpatented mining claims,
will be protected with the necessary
assessment work.
No trace of Glasgow or his body
has been found since he was last seen
at his lonely cabin on Christmas eve.
Blood stains that literally drenched
the two rooms of the cabin and rocks
near it's door, were declared not hui
man blood by chemist.
Charles Wagner, another prospector
who disputed GlasgoW's right to the
cabin and had been heard to threaten
him, was released after being held
for weeks on the prospect of discovery
of the body. Sheriff's men and cow
boys living in the vicinity combed
miles and miles of desert and noun
tain country without finding other
than the intricate network of tracks
said to be those of an automobile with
four dissimilar tires owned by Wag-
ner.

pointed to examine amending leglsla-
ton contained in the Mills bill.

A subcommittee amendment would
include under the presumption of de-
pendency widowed mother or a

BRISBANE, NOTED WRITER
GIVES ARIZONA A BOOST

Arthur Brisbane who writes daily
column for some 200 big newspapers,
gives Arizona the following boost on
his recent visit to Grand Canyon:
"Arizona doesn't want a boom; it
would rather grow steadily, powerful
ly. But boom is inevitable through
out the state at Yuma, Douglas,
Bisbee, Phoenix, Prescott, Flagstaff,
Tucson-ev
"Just east of Flagstaff, little way
back, woman living in a small un-
painted house, had all her washing
out on the line shortly after sun rose
this morning, and it will be thoroughly
dry in this dry air long before noon
Then, after she has fed the men,
there will be nothing to do before pre-
pairing supper, except to iron the
wash and put it away.
"You don't know much about life if
you pity her. Everything that she
does is praised, every word she says
receives respectful attention She is
infinitely more happy than some New
York woman who daubs her lips with
red paint, then goes to "Bobs" to buy
for $50 a pair $10-an-ounce dancing
slippers that will pinch her poor toes.
Come west and see Arizona on the
way"

PLENTY or SHELLS

The original hen, the Jungle Fowl.
Of far India. produced only a dozen or
is eggs in II months. She could easily
gather lime enough in her daily forag-
ing to seal successfully the precious
contents of her small clutch" In
these times we expect our hens to Law
II times as many eggs every year.
That stunt will require - times as
much lime to form shells that are as
strong as they ought to be.
The cause of many cracks and
breaks in market eggs is this lack of
lime to make strong shells. A man
who handles many eggs instinctively
recognizes by the feel" a thin and I'M
sate shell. A man who sends many
thln shelled eggs to market will lose
caste with his customers. They like
eggs well shelled. This is a matter of
more Importance than We think, A
thln snelled egg will be likely to
break in the nest and so not only start
ann egg eating habit in the hen that
lays 1t, but lose to the poultryman the
value of the egg. Give them plenty of
llme therefore in the form of oyster
shells They like the stuff, it will be
an insurance policy on the life of the
. egg.

What About
Rye For Hogs?

| Experiments were carried on by
the Michigan college of agriculture
to find out the value of rye for fat
. tening hogs. Pure dry yeast. pur-
chased in 215 pound cans, was used.
Sixty percent tankage was given
during the entire period. Rye and
oats were fed ground. The mineral
mixture was made by mixing 80
pounds of phosphate. 80 pounds each
of finely ground limestone and COM
mon salt, and sulfur pounds The
trough fed lots We're fer twice a day
and were given as much feed as they
could clean up in reasonable length
of time.
1t was found that addition of one
third ground oats to a settled ra-
ton of ground rye, tankage and min
erals did not prove to be of any ad-
vantage. However, the later ration
produced somewhat larger gains with
a little less feed.
When rye. oats, tankage and min
eral mixture was fermented with
yeast and then fed the gains made
were better than when no yeast was
used. The gains made were not large
