AN lMM!NENT LOSS
Which The City of Phoenix Cannot
 Afford.

The closing Of the Sisters hospital, now in contemplation, would be a loss to Phoenix little short of a calamity. Every year there are in a town of this size considerably over a hundred cases Of serious illness O. accidents in which the assistance Of skilled and devoted nurses is absolutely necessary If the present hospital is closed, another will have to be established in a short time, and. it will cost considerably more than that conducted by the Sis ters. who are paid TO salary and are economical in every department. The town of Albuquerque, a place Of minor importance as compared with Phoenix, offers a bonus Of 5000 to the Sisters if they open hospital there.
 The people Of Phoenix contributed the compaI atively small sum Of $1,200 when the hospital was opened. The city has been well repaid. Hundreds Of its sick people have been nuTsed through grave illnesses. The hospital has spent over S15,000 in the town. Not one cent Of the debt Of S2.500 has been paid eff tha hospital, and one of the chief causes of this was the num- Der of patients who paid either none or only part os the expenses incurred Dy the nOSlil2I Hi DOarUl0S, EuTSl1S s and caring for them. From the opll- ing Of the hospital until August of this year the total work of the hospi- tai amounted to 6,672 days, consider ing each day spent in the hospital by each patient as a day. Of this nun Der the enormous proportion Of 1862 days, CT 19.S9Aper cent, were tCaally unpaid for; that is, board, medicine and nursing were all furnished at the expense of the Sisters. Tn addition to this, S04 days were paid for but par italy, at rada that did not suffice 10 pay the expenses incurred by helping the patient That was a further l2.05 per cent. There always is, and prob ably there always will be, a certain pro- portion Of charilaable work expected Of the Catholic sisterhood, but 31.94 per cent, CT nearly one-third of it, is enormous.
 These figures are gathered from the official statistics furnished to the doc tors and other friends Of the hospital as 3 reason fer discontinuing it. If anything is to be done, it must be done quickly, as otherwise the Sisters of Mercy will leave for Albuquerque some time in December, and definite arrangements must be made before No vember l.

ARIZONA AND STATEHOOD

Arizona is very close to statehood.
 Thus spoke c. s. Parsons, director Of ihe agricultural experiment station yesterday afternoon to a reporter fer The Republican.
 Let the voters Of the territory he continued, '-elect the republican can dida.e for delegate to congress and :. IegislatuTa, in sympathy herewith, the result will be, 1 am of the opinion, that inside Of two years Arizona will be admitted to statehood. From what ] can see of the political parties in Arl- zona, there is no reason why the ra- publicans should not succeed If ] mistake not the territory is a republi- can territory and all that the republi- cans need 10 60 is to so into the fight confidently and without any show Of backing down, and they will win at the polls"
 From this the conversation drifted to the experimental station near tbis city.
 ''We propose" said MT. Parsons, "tn put the property in such a shape that you Phoenix. people can take your winter visitors out there and show them the place with pride. The scopa Of the work to be carried on at the station is to be greatly enlarged.

COWS ARE COWS
Through They Arc Moi Yef Quite
 Worth Their Weight in Gold.

Just now a milch COW is worth money. On the assessment rolls Of Maricopa county COWS are valued at S25 apiece, but any kind of a COW that IS anything Of milk producer will bring twice that sum. Moreover, the alfalfa ccw man is nC- selling any Of his heifer calves-rot by a good bit. If anything he is devoutly wishing that all the calves should be heifers.
 This and much ether information about cows and milk was siVen yester- day by Manager Rays Of the Maricopa creamery as he sat in his cTce. The air was redolent with a soft, balmy odCr that is peculiar to butter and the visitor could for that reason, if no other, enter into the spirit Of the oc- casiol- In the background it s5emed as if he could see picture Of contented cet1le lying down in the shade, calmly chewing the cud, while oth1Gs stood knee deep in blooming alfalfa, the psr- feet picture Of healthy ccntentme1t
 .'The MaricCpa creamery said Mir. Rays, receives in the neishborhocd cf 4o0, 900 pounds of milk exary thirty days The total output Of creamery butter made by the two cTeameries in the Salt River valley will amount to 1,2O0 pounds per day. The output Of several good sized dai-ies will swell the grand total to about 1000 pounds per day"
 Where does all this butter go to?" he was asked.
 Take all the year through probably 50 per cent Of rh6 product O. the cream cries is shipped to various points in Arizona In sumner the percentage will sink to about 75 and in winter rise to as high as 90. Eighty per cent is therefore a good, safe estimate. The private dairies dispose Of all thsiT product in the home market the year around"
 How many COWS furnish the milk that is used in butter uIaking?'
 Mir Rays stopped a minute or twc and figured on a slip of paper. Finally he said: Judging from the amount of milk that is marketed at Ihe two creameries, I should say that about 1,eG0 COWS are milked fer this purpose. Then the dairies referred to have up- wards C 400 cows more
