Scores of food products have been weighed in the balance and found wautinir. One of the commonest faults and a serious one is the deficiency ol mineral elements in white flour foods. To this lack is due, in larjjje cVrce, ner vous prostration, anemia, rickets in children, and many other ills. Nearly a score of years ago a wonderful food made from whole wheat and bailey was devised.

We have taken a contract to furnish some horses for foreign shipments and will have a GOVERNMENT INSPECTOR HERE MAY 26TH and will inspect in different parts of the Valley un til shipments are complete. There "are two classes of horses to be bought; one kind is for light Cavalry and are to be 15 to 1(5 hands high, with no weight specifications, 5 to 12 years old. Unbroke horses will have to be ridden two or three saddles, or enough so they can be rid den past the Inspector. The horses must be ser viceably sound. Unimportant blemishes or wire cuts that do not injure the animal's movements will not be counted against it. The light Artillery stock is to be 15.1 to 16.2 in height and weigh from 1050 to 1250 pounds, 5 to 12 years old, broke to work; if not broke to Avork, they must be gentle enough to harness. We will call or send some one to look at stock at any time, before inspection day, by arranging dates, but iny one who has stock that will meet the requirements may bring it in on inspection day and we will buy the animal, if the price is right and it will pass in spection. Any one having such stock they wish to dispose of should see or call up Johnny Moore or Frank M. King of the Arizona Live Stock Commis sion Co. and aroused the resentment of the banks officers. The penalties imposed by the comptroller, he said, were legal and fully justified by the condition which he found. He reviewed the alle gations of "dummy loans", of excessive loans to cfi'icers and of the stock brokerage business conducted by the bank's officers through the bank in violation of the law and asserted that the comptrcller was but performing his duty in insisting he be acquainted with the details of all these transactions. o - BHD CHECKS GIVE TEXAS SHERIFF CLUE Joe Hunnycut's Financial Operations in Arizona May End With His Extradition Joe Ilunnycut, alias Joe Murphy, made a more serious mistake than he thought v.hen he deluged this and Gila county with fraudulent checks. He furnished a clue which Sheriff Bailey of Chickasha, Tex., armed with requisition papers is fol lowing here to get Hunnycut, wanted in Texas for robbery, burglary, for gery and some other crimes com mitted in a brief spasm of freedom from the penitentiary of that state. Hunnycut, who by the way is not a relative of George Hunnycut, a well known contractor of tnls city, and has no relatives here. He left owing for his board and room. He disposed of one check at Globe, an other on his return to Roosevelt to Webb of the hotel there but that was discovered to be fraudulent. Hunny cut got rid of still another check to Bill Boardman at Payson and when Roardman seemed dissatisfied. Hunnycut, who appears to be an accommodating individual obtained the money to make that check good by securing money on another worth less check from Mrs. Good fellow liv ing across the street. Hunnycut paid for his transporta tion with another fraudulent check for $100. In the meantime the fin ancial transactions had been brought to the attention of Sheriff Adams. The sheriff learning that most of these checks were floating in the Gila county atmosphere telephoned to Sheriff Haynes about it. The sheriff learned that he had an ad ertisement desiring the return of Hunnycut to Texas from the peniten tiary of which state he had emerged as late as last Xovember. Sheriff Adams has learned that Hunnycut robbed a woman of Texas of something mere than $f000 last fall. He stole at the same time a gold watch which aroused the sher iffs suspicion. He has learned by correspondence that the watch was stolen from this woman. GO EASY ON BETTING A HAT THESE DAYS "I'll bet you the best hat in town" is a wager fraught with mighty ex pensive possibilities these days. Us ually it means that the loser of the bet digs up about twenty bucks, but this week the ticket would call for fifty. It seems that a few months ago the John B. Stetson company thought it might be well to make up a little exhibit of their honest-to-good ness clear beaver hats, so fixed up a couple of thousand dollars worth of real hats and started them on a big trip. First the display went to the famous Silverwood store in Los Angeles, then it came to Phoe nix where it is being shown at llanny's. Included in the exhibit mens of the old stand-by well-known in the old notably the I5ig Four, the Laloo, the San An, the style A Beaver, the Landriff, etc. With one exception they are all of the delicate fawn and gray tones, and are of a remarkably silky fine finish, a few of the fifty dollar specimens being in the "nap ped" style, like the very first hats made by old John I?, himself. are speei shapes so southwest. I . FINANCES AND ! I MARKETS 1 tASSOCIATED TRESS DISPATCHl NEW YORK, May 19. In it's salient features the market was a repetition of the previous session. Dealings were of the same light insignificant char acter, price changes being irregular and narrow. London's markets reflected the concern felt in that quarter regard ing the impending changes in the Brit ish ministry. Incidentally, London re ported the release of $5,000,000 in gold at Ottawa for shipment to this center. Prices generally were higher at open ing, yilding before the end of the first hour, and rose after midday and fell back slightly towards the close. Ex cept for specialties, extreme fluctua tions were within one point. Mexican Petroleum weakened on rumors of fire damage to the company's property and war shares rose one to three points on extremelv light sales. Total sales amounted to 196,000.

The meeting is called under the auspices of the United Produce Growers' Association of Arizona, which was organized and is grow ing out of the efforts of the farm ers and commercial elements of the valley to provide better marketing facilities. ' The Produce Growers' Association has been making considerable pro gress in lining up avenues whereby attract to the valley a large number cf produce buyers, and it has been said by those in authority that as soon as the farmers are in a posi tion to positively produce at stated times the various crops that find a good market in the east, including lettuce, beets, cabbages, etc., they will be in a position to sell these o'clock j products on the tracks at Phoenix, Glendale, Mesa and other valley points. In fact two prominent pro duce dealers have already been in the valley and positively stated that they would be on hand to buy the produce here. However, the Produce Growers' Association will not accept any chance of it being dependent upon selling the products of the valley on the tracks but will provide agencies whereby if a plan for selling on the tracks fails, every car load can be routed to a certain market. The executive committee of the association reports that already hun dreds, of inquiries have come from various commission and marketing the products of the valley can marketed next year, and has made J agencies in the east looking toward particular efforts toward marketing j the privilege of handling the produce the lettuce crop. The efforts of the various elements interested in or ganizing this association have met with success in every quarter and its srpporters hope that by next 'year the farmers of the valley will be able to command a sure and steady market. One remarkable result of the present" movement has been to ent. of the valley. Much good is expected from the meeting to be ; held on Saturday, which will devote particular atten tion to the beet and lettuce situation, and all farmers who are interested in these products or other products of the valley are invited to be pres- ci law 83 tr MtniNtroncM.riDtr T, AMUSEMENTS THE MOON GIRL SHINES AT THE COLISEUM NOW The big iron houses and the big fat man seem to be in vogue these days.

PRICE OF FAME AT THE LAMARA TONIGHT as views are shown of the sham battle, digging trenches, machine gun drills, etc. There's something about our own soldiers that looks pretty good, after seeing so much of views of the war in Europe. Dance at Riverside Park While tiiere will be the usual dis play of Mutual Movies at Riverside Park tonight, the main attraction will be the first of a series of dance Paramount at the Arizona Gaby Deslys in "Her Triumph" the four part Famous Players release shown at the Arizona last night proved fully up to the Paramount standard. It will be shown again to night for the last time. The story is an original one of the theatre, and was written especially for the charming dancer who has the lead ing part. The production was made in France with French players in the supporting cast. The atmosphere of the playhouse is consistently maintained throughout and the offering is extraordinary and as it i.'i not likely that many will have the opportunity of seeing Miss Deslys on the speaking stage. At the Columbia In "The Torrent" which is offered as the feature on the change of program seen at the Columbia last night, proved to be all tiict was said and expected of it. For a film that is both entertain ing, it would be hard to find an equal. Without doubt the scenes of the burst ing of the dam around which the story is written, might well be classed as one of the greatest achievements in the film world that the Universal peiple I have made. Two excellent features are ! shown on this bill, the other being "Where Brains Are Needed', a two-reel j Big U featuring that well known star. iUurdock MacQuarne. The film is a result of Mr. MacQuarries own direct ing and for detail is easily up to that standard seen in all of his work. "Pokes and Jabs" and "When Cupid Crossed The Bay" furnish the comedy part in a manner leaving nothing to be desired. Last Chance to See Local Picture at Empress On account of the many people who have been unable to see "Mr. Carlson of Arizona", it will be shown again to night for the last time at the Empres. There has ecn so much interest taken in this picture, which is the first one taken in T hoenix by Romaine Fielding, that there will no doubt be a large crowd to fee it again tonight. The four-reel Klaw and Erlanger drama which is a very strong picture, was surely appreciated last evening. It shows the wonderful influence of the public press, in molding the opinions of the masses of the people. In this feature entitled "The Power of the Press" a man who had served a term in prison, paying the penalty of an others gui't, was exonerated and the stain on hip character entirely removed and the guilty one at last brought to contests in the big pavilion.
