Swergin slid from his horse.
You'd better stay in camp" he said
gruffly.
Get ME a horse! I'm taking

Swergin turned about abruptly.
"Get the boss an easy horse" he
growled.
A SPER found that he had trou-
IA BILE in mounting the horse that
was brought for him, but he grit
ted his teeth and climbed into the
saddle.
He was about to ride out at the
head of his men when the camp
doctor came running across the
street.
"You must let me bsndage that
shoulder if you're going to act like
fool" the doctor snapped.
Asper looked the medical man
over with a baleful glare. He
seemed on the point of sinking his
spurs and riding over the slender
medic.
AT last he slid from the saddle and
growled deeply, Get it done in a
hurryl"
The doctor bandaged the arm and
shoulder tightly. He said nothing
but it was plain that he thought his
boss the most irresponsible lunatic
he had ever attended.
Asper pulled his wool shirt back
over the bandages and mounted
without asking for any advice from
the doctor.
He faced the men and gave a
short order.
Ride after mel" With those
words he struck out at a gallop in
the direction of Pass creek.
Swergin rode at his side in grim
silence. He had been in the saddle
the better part of the day, but he
still was untired and he looked as
grim as Asper himself.

CUT PRODUCTION
OF PINE LUMBER

Production of pine lumber
in the western states will be
curtailed sharply until prices
return to a level where mills
can be operated without a
loss.
This was agreed upon last
week at Portland, Ogegon,
by the Western Pine assOcia-
ton in its first annual con-
vention when it adopted its
economic committees three
fold recommendations which
were: That all pine mills
now closed remain closed as
long as possible; that mills
limit production to a maxi
mum of 37.5 per cent of their
capacity for the first six
months of 1882 and, that
producers act freely in help
ing each other fill orders for
items in which their stocks
are low, thus making it un-
necessary for an idle mill to
resume operations to replen-
ish depleted stocks at an op-
Grating loss.

CALIFORNIA INDIANS
Want own ATTORNEY

In what's declared to be a
most unusal judicial order,
the United States Court of
Claims has set for hearing
in March a petition by the
$4,000 Indians of California
that they be permitted to
have their own attorney, J.
w. Henderson of San Fran
cisco, in place of Attorney
General u. S. Webb of Cali
fornia, to prosecute for them
their claim against the Unit
ed States Government for
pecuniary compensation on
account of alleged illegal sci
zure by the United States of
approximately 8O,O00,0O0
acres of Indian lands in the
California gold rush days of
1896.
The Indians, through w.
G. Walker of Fresno Coun-
ty, California, a member of
the Chuck-Chansi tribe, COM
planned recently that Attor-
ney General Webb, although
given permiSSiVe authority to
sue in an Act of Congress
passed in 1923, took fifteen
months to file their petition
that might r e a soma b | y
have been filed in five
months and thereby have
unduly delayed their case by
permitting thirteen other
claims gain precedence on
he calendar.
Walker also complained
for the Indians that Attor-
ney General Webb's inaction
tor the year and a half since
he filed the petition placed
heir action in danger of be-
ing dismissed by the court
for want of prosecution some
months ago and that they
saved their case from being
struck from the calendar
only by sending their own
attorney to Washington last
December.
The claims, involving mil
ions, are based on 18 unrati-

according to H. V. Beck, ira

Inc. Beck has just returned
from a general conference of
T. w. A. officials in Kansas
City.
During my absence eX-
planned Beck" a campaign
was developed demanding

ingly is the basis for the COM

ly superior to the abandoned

fed treaties executed by
about 400 representatives of
Indian tribes and groups Of
Californians with the United
States in 1851-52, reserving
to the Indians the use and
possession Of 8,800,000 acres
of land in the state, together
with compensation" in the
form of service and supplies,
which the United States was
to render to them for the re-
mainder of their 80,000,000
acre holdings, which they
ceded in the treaties.
The Is treaties failed,
however, of ratification by
Congress in 1852. In the be-
lief that the treaties were
ratified the Indians gave up
their lands to the Govern
ment and the gold miners.
For more than fifty years
the 18 treaties, which had
been denied ratification in an
executive session of the Sc
nate in 1852, reposed in the
secret archives of the Senate.
In 1905, to become known
as the 'lost treaties" they
were released from the ban
of secrecy.
Shortly afterwards the In
dian survivors and their des-
cendants in California, num-
bering twenty to twenty-five
thousand banded together to
press their claim for justice.
Indian groups, designated as
au,<iliaries, associating them
selves as members of an or
ganization, incorporated as
the Indian Board of Cooper
alton. Fees of a few cents
per month were voluntarily
contributed and, during the
past twenty years through j.
w. Henderson, their chosen
attorney and F. G. Collet,
their appointed executive Of
ficials, the Indians have been
improving their condition.
With frugal use of their
voluntary fees, the Indian Sc
cured court judgments es-
tablishing them as native
born Americans entitled to
all the rights of citizenships,
including the right to vote
and to have their children
go to public schools.
After ten years ceaseless
effort through their chosen
representatives, the Indians
secured the passage of the
Act Of Congress of 1928
which waived the statute of
limitation and permitted
them to seek an adjunction
of their 76-year-old claim in
the u. S. Court of Claims.
That was four years ago.
The act provided that the
claim may be submitted to
the Court of Claims by the
attorney general of the State
of California" This, the In
dians are now contending,
was a permissive provisions
only; and when the attorney
general proceed to petition
for a Limited judgment" and
without consulting with the
Indians, the rift began that
led to the most unusual"
judicial proceedings that will
be staged in Washington D.
c., at the March session of
the u. S. Court of Claims.

COCHISE COUNTY
MUST CUT BUDGET

Within a few hours after
its victory insuing for a re-
fund of S283,4O2.82 in 1881
taxes, the Phelps Dodge
company was bringing a new
action against Cochise coun-
ty, to compel a reduction of
100000 in its 1882 as
sessment.
John Hid of Douglas,
chairman of the Cochise
county board of directors,
announced as the action was
filed that the county would
not contest the suit. Hid
said county engineers had
agreed with corporation en-
gineers that the reduction
was proper.
Coming shortly after the
Shattuck-Denn Mining COM
pany had obtained an assess
ment reduction, the new cut
will cause a considerable re-
duction in the counts reven-
ue, necessitating a movement

$8OO,OO0
TIME is AUSPICIOUS

The state of Arizona be-
tween March Z and 10, will
offer for sale in New York
$1,500,000 in tax anticipa-
ton bonds, it was announc-
ed yesterday in the office of
Nit Simms, state treasurer.
The announcement was
made at the same time it was
revealed the states outstand-
ing registered warrants eX-
ceed its available funds by
some S80O,000.
The deficit, it was explain
ed, is due to delinquencies in
tax payments of upward Of
$1,000,000.
The state had expected to
sell the tax anticipation bond
issue February Is, but it was
withdrawn when failure of
New York City to dispose of
a big bond issue showed that
the time was not auspicious.
Easy Sale Predicted
The opinion was expressed
in the treasurer's office that
no difficulty is being antici-
pated in connection with the
bond issue sale next month.
The statement yesterday
was prompted by press dis
patches from Tucson in
which Rep. A. E. Hinton,
Cochise, meeting with a leg
islative committee seeking
economy in government, said
that "Arizona is in a depress-
ed condition financially be-
cause the bonds were not
sold.
The legislator told his fol-
low-committeemen that on
January 7 outstanding war
rants of the state were ST.
328,154.16 with cash on
hand only S1,365, ,807.5O, a
deficiency of 1852, ,346.66.
Sims Seeks Purchase
R. B. Sims, chairman of the
Arizona Industrial commits
sion, yesterday said the COM
mission would purchase
S5OO,O0O of the proposed
bond issue provided such pur
chase could be made legal
ly.
An opinion will be asked
of K. Berry Peterson, attor-
ney general.
Complete details of the
proposed purchase have not
been worked out, Mr.. Sims
said.
His statement followed a
declaration by Representa-
tive Hinton that the commits
sion had pledged" $600,OOO
from its trust fund of SO, 900,

financial deficit.

resistance to drought Is indicated IN its
ability to thrive this year without the
aid OF the hose. Propagation is by di-
vision or seeds, preferably the latter
because OF the fleshy rootstock.
Another species. old and well known
1t is true, but not largely grown, is
Fuhkia, more correctly Hosta. commonly
known as day lily. or plantain lily.
This is Summer Towering plant that
is easily grown and highly persistent
when once established. The flowers are
attractive as they stand on long spikes
above the clump of dense foliage
A tendency that should be encouraged
in local gardens is the greater use of
native plants that are accustomed to
our dry Summers and thrive despite
adverse conditions. For example, GER
tain Of the native asters bloom pro-
fusely in very dry situations. Their
there Is the native orange milkweed,
ASclepias tuberous, growing finely In
poor gravelly soils A Summer garden
made up of plants able to Withstand
adversely would be far better than a
watered garden which. once the owner
is absent for few days, is more or less
ruined.
Now and again native insect of
serious pest in small way. A local
gardener observed colonies Of large
caterpillars busily engaged in defoliat-
ing a white oak. Upon Identification,
the insect was found to be the orange
necked caterpillar, Datana ministra, not
at all unusual at this season on apple
trees but rare on oaks. Nature fortu-
nately has provided for these enemies
by giving us parasitic insects which hold
the pests In check.
A well known grower Of water lilies
points out the fact that water lily grow
ers have no cultivation or watering
problems and 1t certainly Is brought
forcibly to mind In these rather trying
Summer days. Water lily ponds, or
rather pools. are becoming quite fad
and 1t is truly surprising what lot OF
color and charm little pool can add
to the small garden or back yard II

constructed with sloping sides, water

HARDY VINES

For hardy. persistent vine that can
endure drought and other unfavorable
conditions, one would have to go far to
equal the honeysuckle, which covers the
roadsides of nearby Virginia and Mary
land. This species Lonicera Japon1cum,
as its name implies. is native OF the
Orient but has become so much at home
in this region that one would scarcely
believe that it had not always been
here. The flowers are very fragrant
and long continued and, If ore simply
wants a fence cover, this honeysuckle
certainly will do the job. But once
esta blished, it is very difficult to eradi-
cate because it roots readily at every
node.
English ivy is hardy in this locality
and grows very readily from cuttings
taken from old vines. However, 1t, too,
easily can become pest and has killed
many a fine shade tree, about which
it has been planted However, ivy is
very satisfactory if kept within bounds
WiSteria is one of the finest of the
hardy vines and were it not for tend
ency not to bloom in certain plants it
would be fully satisfactory, Wisteria
is one plant that seems to gain in at
tractiveness with age the gnarled and
twisted stems becoming very picturesque.
Bignonia radicans, the trumpet vine,
native to this locality, makes a sturdy
plant for covering high fences or arborS
and its bright orange red blooms come
In July when there is little shrubbery in
bloom.

PLANT FOODS

Speaking of plant foods, one or
dinarily brings to mind bone meal,
nitrate of soda. stable manure, super
phosphate and various mixed ma
terials AS a matter of fact. this is
altogether too narrow a conception.
Long ago Van Helmont carried on his
now historical experiment. in which
he planted a willow branch. weighing
five pounds. in a box containing 200
pounds of soil. After five years the
willow weighed 164 pounds and the
soil had lost only two ounces. This
early scientist concluded that the in
crease had come from the water ap-
piled and did not realize that the
gain had come largely from the air.
The same ratio holds true today In
our gardens and the plants that grow
there are largely made of materials
manufactured in the leaves by the
action of sunlight In speaking of
plant foods We ought to include car
bon dioxide, water and possible sum
light. The work of the plant in FORM
ing foods from gases and water Is
going on every day in the growing
season, yet it is so general that one
thinks little about it. Yet this ability
to manufacture food is more wonder
full than any Of the so-called seven
wonders of the world and upon 1t
depends, not only the plants welfare,
but that Of every animal, including
mankind.

THE PEACH BORER

One of the principal reasons why the
peach tree is rarely grown in the home
garden is the peach borer, which al
most invariably destroys the trees about
the time they have reached frulting
age unless control measures are intro
duced. This is approaching the season
Tor control treatment, September 20 to
80 being the approximate date stated for
Maryland and Virginia in Farmers
Bulletin. No. 1246, The Peach Borer."
The adult peach borer is said to be
beautiful clear winged moth which Is
harmful simply because of egg deposi-
tion. The eggs are laid on the bark
near the soil and the young larvae en-
ter the soft inner bark where they feed
greedily AS many as 90 insects have
been found in a single tree and it IS
little wonder that they soon girdle and
destroy the host. The presence of
borers cften may be detected by gummy
masses about the base or Just below the
soil If not observed at this stage. the
next may be a premature yellowing Of
the foliage followed shortly by the
death of the tree.
A unique method of control was
developed by the Department Of Agri-
culture, namely, that Of gassing the
borerS in the tree with chemical known
technically as paradichlorobenZene and
commonly known as P. D. B. This
same substance is used for domothing
furniture and can be bought at most
any drug store in one-pound cans. Upon
exposure, the crystals volatalize into a
gas. poisonous to insects, but not to
persons under ordinary conditions.
In preparing the tree for treatment.
it is recommended that the soil be
cleaned and leveled for IS to Is inches
about the base of the tree. The chem
ical then is applied in a circle about the
tree, keeping the material an inch or
inch and one half distant from the
bark. AS soon as applied, the chemical
should be covered with soil banked up
about the tree. The gas is heavier than
air and settles about the infested crown.

COLOR FADS

1t is rather singular what part color
plays in the choice Of fruits and vege-
tables as well as flowers. One observes
this preference in the apple. where with
one or two exceptions, such as Grimes
Evening star., 1932-08-28

Golden, red varieties conspicuously are
favored. In peaches, yellow flesh seems
to be more desired than white flesh,
yet experienced fruit growers will
acknowledge frankly that certain white
fleshed peaches are actually of higher
quality. A nicely tree-ripened Cham
pion peach could scarcely be excelled.
In vegetables, who would care to pur-
chase yellow fruited tomatoes in pref
erence to red or light fleshed beets if
dark red varieties we're available. In
certain sections of the country, yellow
sweet corns have almost exclusively
superseded the white, but in this case
the yellow varieties are possibly sweeter
and more desirable. Just how these
strong preferences are established in
the beginning is not known but. once
in vogue. are very difficult to overcome
Where one is raising vegetables. fruit
and flowers for sale, he must recognize
these facts, but for the home gardener
there is no reason why he should not
grow the highest quality varieties, ir-
respective of color.
