The month opened with a heavy
frost last night, which has about fin
ished gardens and wild growth. Win
ter has begun early and with ven
geance.
Violent winds the past three days
have dried out the ground and small
growth to such an extent that, un-
less we get rain within the next few
days it will probably be necessary to
put on a few lookouts and fireguards
for at least a part of the hunting
season. Dave Joy says the ground
in the woodland, which two weeks ago
was like reeking wet sponge, is now
dry for at least ten inches below the
surface.
The civil service commission has
decided to hold scalers' examination
at restricted number of places some
time after October 20, on which date
all applications from those wishing to
take the examination must be on file
in the commissioners office in Wash
ington. Applicants will then be not
flied of the date of the examination,
probably about ten days after Oct
ober 90 The only two places in Ari-
zona where this examination is to be
held are Flagstaff and McNary. If
you know of anyone who wishes to
take this examination, tell him to
write the civil service commission at
once for an application blank, or let
us supply them as long as ours last.
