A visit yesterday to the big ostrich farm of 1000 birds nine miles west of the city found the management busy in selecting fifty of the largest and fin est birds, to be brought to the town farm at the end of the car line, in the capitol addition, for their opening, which occurs on Saturday.
 Many home folks and visitors will recall with pleasure the many novel sights and beautiful display of feathers presented at the town farm last sea son. A talk with the manager brought out the fact that the product of the birds is in greater demand this year than ever before, Dame Fashion de- creeing that ostrich feathers shall be worn this season to the exclusion of all others, and allowing greater variety of colors, shapes and sizes. An inspection of the salesroCms reveals all of the beautiful effects which it is possible to produce from the feathers that comes from the wings and tail of the ostrich

JUDICIAL NOVELTY WORKS
Concerning Which the Bradstreet
 Company Wants to Know.

A part of the contents oi a mail bag that came to Phoenix yesterday was q letter addressed to U. NJ. Burnett, Phoenix Novelty Works" There is only one J. M. Burnett in Phoenix or anywhere else as far as anyone in this part of the country knows. He pre- sides over a court of the justice of the peace which he has never before heard called a novelty works" though no doubt many dissatisfied litigants have often thought it was a novelty works and were debarred from saying so only company which seems to have the pur- by fear of contempt proceedings.
 The letter is from the Bradstreet pose of putting the judiciary of the county on a more solid and responsible basis. The letter begins as follows: ''The advanced methods of business have demanded a closer examination of the factors controlling and creating credit"
 The judicial proprietor of the nov city works is requested to forward 2 statement ito the end that confidence may be inspired, that your responsi- bility may be known and the chance of error lessened." It is possible that some of the litigants in this novelty works" against whom verdicts have been rem dered will second the request of the Bradstreet company to take any pre- caution that may lessen the possibility of error.
 The letter contains a long list of questions which the owner of the "nov- city works" is directed to answer One of them is "If you have ever failed, kindly state when and where" If any reply should be made to this inquiry 1t will be that it is too early to answer it; that the fact of failure cannot be determined until after November i, when it will be known whether or not Judge Burnett will be retained at the head of the novelty works"

Buy your heater now. Don't wait until d cold spell comes and all rush in here and buy your stoves at once, and then want them set up right away. We can't set up all the stoves we sell in a season in a day. And when all you customers come in here some winter morning (which will surely come, though it is Arizona) and buy your stoves, some of you will sit around and shiver and wait and wait and shiver. And then run the stove man down be cause he didn't hire a dray and pair of race horses and gallop out with your stove first.
 Funny. isn't it? People will wait un- til the last day in the afternoon be- fore they prepare for winter. Gophers and geese know more than we do about preparing for cold weather.
