 systematic manner.
 A reasonable amount of money, properly expended at this time. is. in my judgment, all that is necessary.
 Mir. E. H. Porter, of Porter Bros
 l believe in advertising, and we can- not begin too quickly.
 Levi Young
 1 am most heartily in favor of adver- Using and now is the proper time This is the greatest country in the world and people will appreciate it if We tell them. A great many people in the east have wrong impression and feel that this is an unfit place to bring and educate their children It is up to the citizens Of Phoenix to cor rect this impression. Closing the sa- looms on Sunday is a good move, you cannot advertise too much or too quickly. (Mr. Young is an extensive sheep owner near Jerome, and lives in Phoenix.)
 pr. Palmer
 l spent the summer travelling in the east, through twenty states. There are too many people in the east that have a wrong impression of this val ley. A minister of the middle west spoke of Phoenix as being a frontier town and unfit for educated people to live in. No place where I have been are the lands so productive as in Salt River valley. By all means advertise and advertise at once.
 MT. C. H. Davidson
 We have too many large farms. we should cut up our large holdings into 20 acre or smaller farms in order to get out of the soil all there is in it. It will take thrifty farmers to accom- plish this, and We need them now, the experience of smaller farmers here in the valley has proven this.
 MT. Chas. Larson r If advertising is done properly and reaches the people We need, it is a good thing.
 Mir. L. La Chance, Manager of the Wakelin Grocery Co.,
 We should advertise the valley by all means. The sooner the better, begin at once.
 MT. R. B. Burmister. Cashier Phoe- nix National Bank
 We must cooperate in an advertising campaign if we desire to build up this community As a matter of necessity it rests with the board of trade, and this movement should meet with ap- proval by every public spirited citizen. I heartily lend my endorsement to any plan of honest, up to date representa- tion through advertising. that will bring into this valley promising far mers and business men.
 C. F. Ainsworth, Pres. Home Say ings Bank and Trust Co.,
 Yes. do il now. Advertise in south ern California for quick returns.
 MT. Griffin, of Greene x Griffin
 Yes, We are too slow to grasp at this important issue. In delaying we are loosing valuable time and good money.
 Mir. $. Oberfelder-
 Yes. We should advertise in a judi cious and economical way. We should let the world know of our wonderful resources.
 Mir. H. B. Wilkinson
 Any scheme that can be devised to reach the right people to get them here I am in favor of, such a plan should be worked when devised.
 MT. L. II. Chalmers
 Judicious advertising is a good thing, go at it in 8. modern way. and let de- velopments prove whether it is a good thing or not.
 Dr. Win Wylie-
 Advertise by all means. Now is the time to advertise. It will be difficult to over advertise.
 J. w. Crenshaw-
 l am decidedly in favor Of advertis- hn of Cal Ilipn,- NyallaN and I am in favor of advertising so as to attract the attention Of the capital ist. the homeseeker the mechanic and the tourist. Advertising has built up southern California and why shouldn't it build up Phoenix and the Salt River valley, when We know so many in ducements to offer. We have the most productive lands. plenty of water which is being properly controlled by the government. a healthful climate and everything to make this one of the most prosperous places on earth.
 I say advertise now and let the world know what we are doing and what we expect to do in the future.
 MT. Hoghe, County Supervisor
 We should advertise as our means permit us. but do it now. We should spend s1O00 per month for the next year.
 Mir. E.. Viauit, Valley Flour Mills
 We believe this is the proper time to advertise among the farmers who have good health and money. We want times, we must have new people and new money. We will give the matter our support. Any one op- posing such an important matter as this must have an axe to grind. (Mr. Viault spent the summer travelling in the north and east and abroad.) MT. H. I. Latham Most emphatically yes and do it now. Jesse F. Kelley, of F. J. Bennitt & Co., One man cannot successfully farm 160 acres, it is too large. We must have in order to divide up our present holdings and thereby attain higher state of cultivation. We want the skilled farmer or truckman, and experienced fruit grower. MT. P. A. Tharaldson- I am in favor of advertising this valley and city. Begin as soon as pos sible, and equalize the expenses. MT. Lloyd Christy, of the Valley
