The defeat of the bond proposition last Fri day made some of the citizens of Phoe- nix think of it. The proposition was defeated by the country vote. A good many who voted against it never want ed a voice in the affairs of the high school. Neither did they want to help support it or enjoy any of it's benefits. They were forced into the district against their will

COPPER QUEEN ADDS FIFTY MEN
Mining Force Still Being Increased,
 end the End is Not Yet.

Another large sized addition to the force of employees at the Copper Queen mines was effected yesterday and Sun day says the Bisbee Review. This time there were employed fifty men. who were given positions in the various parts of the mines. Nearly all of the men engaged are miners, and their em- ployment in large measure reduces the over-supply of labor caused here abouts by the suspension of operations at various properties where further exploratory work is to be done by the diamond drills.
 The addition of these extra fifty men now places the Copper Queens enrolment of employees to slightly over the thirteen hundred mark. which is a small sized army In itself, and repre- sents an outlay in salaries each month of more than s150.OOO. And this is not likely to be the end of extra labor to be engaged by the compony in the near future. as the mines will be required to produce 2 larger output when the company places its new Douglas smell ter in commission That time is not so far away, as it is expected that the srnelters will be blown in about June crst.
 In the face of these facts none will doubt that the Copper Queen opera tions in the future will outstrip all of the company records of the past, in point of amount of production and also regarding the amount of profits to be made for the owners. And all of Bis bee Shopes that these good things will continue for long years to come.

means the most expensive of the stete and territorial buildings, but, on the contrary, perhaps the cheapest, will be not least the attractive. It is bsilt in the mission style, and is therefore uff- like any other architecture that will be seen at St Louis. The building cost a little more money than the board had counted upon. It was intended to give it an imposing front and to spend as little on the sides and back as possible. It was thought it would be possible to utilize the adjoining buildings to cover the sides. If the locations chosen for those adjoining buildings had been re- tained that arrangement would have been all right, but some change was made by which the sides and the rear of the Arizona building would be ex- posed to the public gaze. It therefore became necessary to make it longer and to pay a little more attention to ornamentation.

HOW TO GET THE BACTERIA IN THE SOIL
Since the discovery of the bacteria there is
little reason for failure in growing it and espe-
cially where soil conditions are not positively
against it. Many have introduced the bacteria
into their land, by bringing soil from farms that
successfully grew alfalfa. The demand for IN
oculated soil grew to such proportion that quite
a traffic sprung up, and many alfalfa growers adj
vertised infected soil for sale at Is cents to 81
per 100 pounds. Often this soil would be
shipped hundreds of miles to distant States, and
sown on land at the rate of 100 pounds of in
fected soil to the acre of land to be planted in
alfalfa. This has produced wonderful results.
But now a better and cheaper way of distrib-
uting the bacteria has been devised. Some
scientist has discovered how to successfully grow
the bacteria in the laboratory, and now the Agri-
cultural Department at Washington is growing
and distributing, free to farmers, various kinds
of bacteria. 1t is said that it costs the govern
ment only about four cents to furnish enough
bacteria to inoculate the seed to SOW one acre of
land. Any Progressive Farmer reader who wishes
a package to inoculate his seed has only to write
the Department at Washington.

Kansans have proven their faith in al

PREPARATION OF LAND.

ECHO OF WATSON CASE.
Troubles Growing Out Of Local CO.
Operative Association.

The receivers appointed by the court to
collect the money due the District Cooper
ative Association, composed of employees of
the District government, are said to be ex-
periencing considerable difficulty In collect
ing the outstanding indebtedness of the
organization. and they propose to bring
the matter squarely before the Commission
ers for action, one Of the receivers stated
today.
This association was formed by James M
A. Watson, who will soon be tried on the
charge of embezzlement Of District funds
to the amount of $4,000, and 1t Is claimed
that some of those who are indebted to the
association are taking advantage of Wat
sons predicament to avoid payment of the
amounts they borrowed from the organi-
zation.
The outstanding loans of the association
were stated today by Attorney Malcolm
Hufty, one of the receivers, to be about
1900. The receivers he added, have gotten
judgment against number of the debtors
of the association, and some of these are
paying off their Indebtedness in monthly
instalments. Others, Mr.. Hufty said,
show no inclination whatever to pay up.
The claims of the latter will. it is said, be
cited to the Commissioners for action The
debtors are all employees or former employees
of the District government, as none but
those on the pay rolls Of the District were
permitted to borrow from the funds of the
organization.
Some of those who borrowed money
through Watson from the association are
claiming that they paid the amounts to
Watson before his arrest. and that he failed
to make any record of such payment.
The receivers are Attorneys Stuart Nc
Namara, Malcolm Hufty and w. j. Lam

that the actual amount paid In by MEM
bers on account of stock was about 81 600
Money was loaned to members in sums
ranging from SIS to 500 at per cent inter-
