AOTO MEN BACK
AFTER BATTLING
SNOW AND ICE
“Breaking down the sales resist
ance” is a phrase so much over
worked in the automotive industry
that it has become almost a neces
sary part of all standard auto
i>bile jokes. Resistance to de
livery after sales, however, is prac
tically an innovation but this type
of difficulty was encountered this
week at McNary by Frank Christ
iansen, salesman for the Old
Trails Oarage.
The resistance didn’t come from
the prospective owner, but from
too much snow and ice, a natural
circumstance frequently encount
ered around McNary at this time
of year. The stories brought back
by Christiansen, and corroborat
ed by Floyd Jones, who was a pas
senger on the trip, read more like
an account of the perils of Amund
sen.
The pair, who delivered a Chev
rolet to a McNary garage Wednes
day, first had to dig through a
snow drift 8 feet deep to get at
the garage and to get possession
of a used car that figured in the
deal.
That wpsn’t so hard, but a short
trip of four miles that became
npefessary to complete the deal
was a little tougher. Starting at
7:00 A. M. Thursday, the expedi
tion had only made a mile and a
half at two o’clock the same day.
That was bad enough, but the
return trip furnished the big kick.
(“Kick” is used here in its rela
tionship to “complaint.”)
On the way back, the Buick Se
dan in which Christiansen was
riding slipped of the highway, and
was buried to a depth of five feet
in a snowbank. There was no
danger, no adventure, or anything
more thrilling than a plentitude
of labor to this last episode, but
Christiansen and Jones built some
eight feet of detour before they
Were back on the highway. It
took several hours to jack up the
car high enough to build by hand
road bed of rocks, but the engi
neering feat was accomplished late
Thursday night.
The only delay after that was
caused by careful driving.
GRANDCANYON
TRAVEL OFF AS
ROADS GO OUT
Although tourists are still visit
ing the Grand Canyon by automo
' Ale, the number is lessening daily
Arid the regular weekly report
mailed from the park by the Fred
jtarvoy service, showing the condi
tion of the roads explains the
dropping off. The reports, taken
for a season, make a rough baro
meter of conditions north of the
Old Trails highway, and present
bulletins show that actual winter
is here at last.
The Maine-Flagstaff passage to
Grand Canyon road is closed, and
will probably remain so for the '
rest of the winter, barring a pos- ;
sible cessation of the cold snap
and a month or more of warm, dry
weather.
The route to the Canyon byway
of Williams is still passable, but
bulletins advise travel in the early
hou*s of the morning, when the
ground is still frozen.
The rains of some weeks ago
have had no opportunity either to
soak into the ground or to dry up,
and a few hours of sunshine
makes the roadway too slick for
safe travel.
Even the two eastern drives at
the Canyon, to Grand View and to
the Moeucipo-Hopi village, have
been closed, but all western drives
are open.
All trails, except the north rim
and Utah country, are declared to
be open and good.

CAPTAINHARDY,
FAMOUS PISTOL
SHOT, IS VISITOR
Captain A. H. Hardy, one of the
world’s greatest revolver shots,
pistol instructor for the Los Ange
les police department, the Denver
police Department and widely
known for his exhibitions of mark
manship, was. a Winslow' visitor
yesterday.
Captain Hardy drove in from
Phoenix and waited here for the
arrival of his family on No. 2. With
his family he then started for Den
ver to spend the holidays. He
expects to give an exhibition of
marksmanship here sometime the
latter part of'June planning to stop
here enroute to keep an engage
ment at the Prescott Rodeo which
will be held early in July.
Captain Hardy will also he re

City Plans 45 New
Street Lights With
Lower Power Rates
Winslow should have approxi
mately forty-five new street lights
within a short time, according to
an agreement made some months
ago by the city council and the
Arizona Electric Power Company.
According to the terms of the
agreement, the city planned to put
in the lights as soon as the rate
on current for each light had been
reduced from its old price of $4.00
per month per light to $3.00.
News of the approval of the $3.00
rate by the Corporation Commis
sion w T as made public yesterday.
There are at present 95 street
lights in commission in the city of
Winslow. The agreement, entered
into in June, calls for 140 street
lights, but as far as c ould be
learned last night, no stimulation
was made as to the exact time
when the new lights would be put
in use.
The new contract is to run for
two years, and its provisions mean
that many parts of Winslow that
have been dark will receive street
light service.
It is expected that the approval
of the new’ rate will cause con
struction on the new lights to
start immediately.

specialist in agronomy and agricul
tural practice in the agricultural
service.
“Scheerer’s field of experience in
Pinal county,” Director Ross said,
“qualified him in an unusual way
for the position. This county is
perhaps the most important, in the
state from the standpoint of im
mediate development. The San
Carlos Water Users’ association
has announced that the dam will
be completed and the distribution
system finished by June., 1928. This
means the application of water to
approximately 80,000 acres of land
I within two years. For this reason
the county agricultural agent has
I an unusual responsibility in pre-
I paring to meet the needs of the
| farmers who will develop this

State’s Orphans
Asking Homes as
Christmas Gifts
Give a real Christmas gift!
A child!
Let Santa Claus bring to your
fireside something that will renew
faith, youth and interest in life.
Let old Chris bring to some child
of the Arizona Children’s Home the
biggest and best gift possible— a
home and parents.
The Arizona Children’s Home is
only a temporary abiding place for
children who are left alone in the
w r orld without parents and provis
ion l’or their lives. The specialty
of the organization is to seek
homes, suitable homes, for the
children.
By suitable homes is certainly
meant a place where the adopted
parent may become a real parent
in spite of loving interest and
kindness, where education and per
sonal welfare wdll be paramount
in the minds of the adults, where
realization that the greatest gift of
all is giving opportunities to a
child.
The children’s home at the pres
ent time is making an appeal to
the state for homes for several
children. There are three bright
American boys, brothers, 7, 9 and
11 years of age, w’ho want homes
together, if possible. There are
two other lads, not related, who
are 8 and 11 years old, who also
w'ant homes. There are only two
girls for adoption just now, and
they are 7 and 9 years old. All
these are of American parentage.
The officials of the home ask
that applications for adoption he
asked for at 90 East Pennington,
Tucson, Arizona.
H. E. Middleton, State Superin
tendent, has issued the following
plea for aid:
‘Owing to its enlargement to
accommodate a waiting list of
children, the present year has wit
nessed 50 per cent more children
in the home than during any for
mer year, with the result —some
unpaid bills.
“With outstretched arms the
orphan and dependent children of
Arizona appeal to you for help.
“Will business firms, the various
organizations, lodges and individ
uals heed the cry of these chil
dren?
“Make checks payable to the
Arizona Children's Home Associa
tion, 90 East Pennington Street,
Tucson, Arizona.”

SUGGESTIONS
TO FARM FLOCK
CO-OPERATORS
By H. B. HINDS,
Extension Poultry man
Selection and Care of Breeders
Poultry culture, like any other
line of livestock work, cannot be
developed to any degree of accur
acy without attention being paid to
the selection of the breeders. Stan
dard qualities and past egg produc
tion are two veyy important con
siderations.
By breeding from the best in the
flock, the progeny will be of a
higher type than if the entire
flock had been used. Mass breed
ing does not tend toward improve
ment, but rather tends to maintain
the same standard in the succeed
ing generation as in the past. In
flock breeding, one breeds from
undersized, immature, off-type in
dividuals, as well as those of she
desirable type. This can he elim
inated to a large extent by the
careful selection of the breeders.
Care should be used in selecting
the males, as they will 'transmit
one-half of all the characteristics
represented in their progeny. It is
not necessary to introduce now
blood every year, but it is impor
tant that you use only the well de
veloped, active, vigorous and sex
ually strong males that possess
the type and color which you wish
to have’ transmitted to your young
stock. In addition to the above
characters, it is desirable to use
sons from hens with good produc
tion, if possible. Birds of this
type can be purchased at a nom
inal cost. Progress can he made
by purchasing one good individual
and mating with 12 to 15 of the
best females. In this manner a
sufficient number of cockerels
may be raised to head all breeding
pens next year.
At the Kansas station, by using
standard bred cockerels selected
from pedigreed hens with 1 7 g h
production on mongrel flocks, the
production in three generations of
Rhode Island Reds was raised
from 111 to (.40 eggs a year.. A
well-bred Barred Rock male on a
mongrel flock showed an increase
of from 98 to 115 eggs and the
single comb White Leghorns from
72 to 192 egg.,.» Uniform type and
color was obtained at the same
time the production was increased.
The ratio of males to females is
1 to 12 or 15 for Rocks, Rods, Wy
andottes and other general pur
pose breeds, and 1 to 15 or 20 for
Leghorns and other small breeds.
Fertile eggs may iie produced
two to three days after mating, but
It is bettor to wait six to seven
METEOR TRACED
TO BALL MESA
BY CAMP PARTY
That the big meteor witnessed by
Winslowites last week was seep by
many others south of here is in
dicated by numerous reports re
ceived during the past few days.
Travis Hough, who was in the
vicinity of Hay Lake, where Hie
meteor is suppctecd to have fallen,
reports that he saw’ the celestial
visitor. He was in camp in tiiaf
vicinity and believes the’ heavenly
visitor landed on Ball Mesa, about
nine miles south of the lake. With
companions in their tent he heard
the roar of the meteor as it neared
the earth, which they say lighted up
the vicinity as light as day. Rush
ing outside their tents they saw it
land, apparently on Ball Mc.sa,
with an explosion similar to that
of a heavy charge of dynamite..
Investigation, they arc sure,
would reveal the meteor’s resting
place. Residents of Canyon Diablo,
a few miles west, also saw and
heard the meteor, and fix the laud
ing place also at Ball Mesa.

Rejecting Relics
Is Curator's Job
Rejecting relics, as as col
lecting them, is one of the duties
of a museum curator.
Mounted erstwhiie household
pets, antique watched nad razor ;
carried or wielded by forbears of
donors, shingles and weather
boarding from manses of local re
nown, couterpanes woven by
“grannies" a generation or Iwo
ago, barrels of Confederate paper
money and old coins, bizarre .shap
ed stones, freak vegetables, old
letters, shells and minnic balls and
Indian arrow heads by the bushel,
are among the relics Dr. S. W. Alr-
Gallic, curator of the Georgia Slap, 1
Museum, has declined within the
ia:st. few years.
The reason for rejection is lack
of importance or interest, lie said.
After removing the male, it will
require from *l4 to 21 days before
you can be certain to obtain in
fertile eggs.
Conclusions
We eh Quid stress the iinportanre
of free range for the breeding

Use the same care in selecting
your breeders as you would in
