At the weekly Rotary dinner last
week, Mr.. r. A Faul, manager of
1000 acre Security Farm east of
Coolidge, made an interesting ad-

tend an invitation to the public to
visit the farm and inspect the ac-
tivities there. Said Mr.. Faul: Each
man and family there has been

PLANT MORE FLOWERS

Now is the time to SOW the seed
of annual fall blooming flowers,
says Harvey F. Tate, extension
horticulturist of the University of
Arizona. Practically all of the
spring blooming flowers are begin
ming to mature and dry up, and it
is time that these plants should be
removed, the seed beds reworked
and seed sown for the late summer
and fall flowers. The seed may be
sown either in beds and rows,
where they are to grow, or in flats
and the seedlings later to be trans
planted to the permanent location.
Most of our fall flowers are very
hardy and so easy to cultivate it
is less trouble to SOW the seed in
the beds where the plants are to be
grown.
There is not a wide variety of
flowers that can be sown for fall
blossoms, but all of them are very
hardy, colorful, and easy to cult1-
vate.

Ace Gardner Faces
Gun in Hands of
Lunatic

A transient, said to be from
Montana, and giving the name of
Jim Tyler, had been lettering about
Coolidge for some time, and acting
more or less peculiar-carried a
large bowie knife and 22 rifle and
was always accompanied by two
large police dogs. AS far as is
known, the man never molested
anyone here, but when folks began
to comment on the man, Ace Gard
ner hunted him up for questioning
The man fleed, and Mr.. Gardner
finally coralled him in the south
part of town, where Gardner faced
the man-and the business end Of
his rifle. A grim tragedy might
easily have taken place there, but
Mr. Gardner tactfully persuaded
the man to disarm, then took him
to Florence, where he was taken
before Superior Court Judge E. w.
Mcfarland, who declared the man
insane and committed him to the
State asylum at Phoenix. It's all IN
a days work with Gardner, but
most of us wouldn't face an insane
man with a rifle for all the money
in Arizona. Ace Gardner has what
it takes for that kind of job.

and struck a match to warn an ap-
preaching car. He apparently step
ped out in the middle of the road
and the approaching car, driven by
B. c. Davis of Coolidge, swerved
and missed the stalled car, but
struck Mr.. Powers. The Powers
family had many friends here who
regret the unfortunate happening.
