Jones, at torney general, those who have registered for the fall primaries "no party" must let that classifi cation stand, Since the registration opened there has been considerable question as to the right of a prospective voter to declare his politics one way then to change that declaration.

Three cents a mile is also prescribed on the line of the Ray and Gila Valley Railroad.

After the Civil war through which he served as a loyal and brave soldier, he moved to Western Kansas, where he pioneered for some time.

In 1887 he moved to California, coming to the Salt River valley in 1891, where he resided ever since. At Fairbury, Illinois, on December 24th, 1865, he was united in marriage with Sylvia Alford from which union four sons and two daughters are left to mourn his loss.

Large Attendance at Exposition Those who predicted a greater year for the San Diego Ex-Dosition in 1916 than during 1916, are having their innings. The attendance forthe first month since the formal dedication day, March 18. has been more than 75.000 e-reater than for the cor- resDondinsr month of 1915. The wonderful displays of Canada, France, Italy. Germany, Austria, and other governments partici-Datine at San Francisco, have added greatly to the 1915 ex hibits.

HATHORN, Proprietor Woods near Postoffice Holbrook, Arizona Lubrication Important Factor In Keeping Motor Cool "'The question of lubricating oil is directly connected with that of cooling" says Mechanical Bulletin No.

3 entitled "Engine Overheating," gotton out recently by the Standard Oil Company. "Lubricating oil dissipates the heat of friction generated by the pistons in the cylinders. If the lubricating oil does not perform its duty correctly, the heat of friction is added to that of fuel, and the cooling medium will not be sufficient to keep the temperature of the motor at the point of efficiency. "If the body of the oil in the system is depleted through long use and impregnated with particles of metal, carbon and dirt, it will produce a high coefficient of friction, and overheating will result. Hence the importance of systematic draining of the crank case and oil reservoir.

"If an oil of incorrect body is used it will cause overheating. Incorrect body means that when the oil comes in contact with the hot cylinder wails, its body will partially or wholly break down and allow the metals to come in contact, resulting in an excessive ly high coefficient of friction and possible abrasion. Incorrect body also means that if too heavy an oil is used, it will not reach the wearing surface fast enough, and excessive friction will result, which will overheat the motor in addition to causing under wear." "Many motor authorities declare, and the experience of the majority of Pacific Coast motorists bears it out, that oil made from western asphalt-base crude keeps its lubricating qualities longer at cylindei heat, and therefore gives better results." Big Traction Truck for Tuba Freight Traffic A big ten ton Knox tractor truck was unloded here last Friday for S. S. Preston, the Indian trader at Tuba and started on its way to Tuba with a big load, driven by W.

S. Beard on its initial trip. Freighting from Flagstaff to Tuba has grown so in the past few years that something other than depending on the slow travel of Indian teams was required to handle it. Aside from this frieght, the government is continually building ud a little Tuba colony and requires a more speedy method of getting things into the place. The new tractor is forty horse power and will make about eight miles an hour when loaded, and on reasonably good roads.

Farm Advisor Paschall, of Co- chise-Santa Cruz counties, has practically completed arrange ments for the movable schools to be held in Cochise county the early part of June. Posters have been gotten out and programs have been distributed. Anyone desiring a copy of the program should write Mr. Paschall at San Simon.

A very interesting and practical program has been arranged for both schools. Farmers, don't forget the corn contest to be conducted this year by the Agricultural Extention Service in co-operation with the Arizona Bankers' Association, Much interest is being shown in this contest, and the bankers have so far contributed almost $200.00 for prizes to be awarded to the winners in this contest. This money will probably be used in most cases to iase something useful for the prize winners which will mean further agricultural development, such as pure-bred live stock, iarrr machinery, etc and Sulphur Springs Valley? have so far shown the greatest interest in this contest. Remember the entries close June 15. Full information may be secured from the Agricultural Extention Service, Tuciun.
