MEAT IS ON THE JUMP.
Here Is Good Summer Substitute for
Meat.

The retail meat dealers and butchers
have been notified by tho packing
houses that tn, price If meat has been
raised three cents a pound ~ account
of scarcity Of live stock and their in
ability to operate all the l,acliin~-

are all flooded it is Impossible to kill
fresh beef ana the dealers VIII have to
rely on the present supply in cold
storage.
Meat was alrt ady high enough to be
4 luxury to most people but this adli-
tionaI advance will place it beyond the
reach of most pocketbonks. Forth
natcly we do not REQUIRE as mach
meat in summer as we do in winter
and the deprivation will not be a hard
ship to most people. especially those
WHO know the high nutritive value of
shredded wheat biscuit which may be
obtained of any grocer. Shredded
wheat contains more real nutriment
than beef or eggs, costs much less. is
much more easily digested. Two
shredded wheat biscuits with milk or
cream and little fruit will supply all
the energy needed for half days
work and at cost not to exceed five
or six cents. 1t will be pleasant
surprise to the stomach as well as the
pocket book.

Important Notice to the Public.

This company, which owns the Ryall and Mix mining concessions on the Yaqui river, has begun an active campaign of exploration and development of it's property. The program of the work contemplated includes in it's scope both the pros pecting of the territory covered by the concessions by parties employed by the company and the granting of permits, on reasonable basis of royalty, to outsiders who may desire to carry on such exploration work and locate property within the territory controlled.
 The territory covered by the con- cession includes everything between the Yaqui and Tecoripa rivers, and between the town of Cumaripa and line drawn east and west from the Mojonera del Guamuchil above San Antonio de la Huerta, and the Ojo de Agua above the town of Tecoripa on the Tecoripa river. The territory is located in the dis tricts of Ures, Hermosillo and Guaymas.
 The administration office of the company will be Fundicion. All communications, for the present, may be addressed to the company's secretary, w. P. Tucker.
 In view of the many communi- cations which the company has received from various persons rela- tive to Announcements which they have desired to make wihin the concessions, it has been decided to give to all those who have ex- pressed desire to make such loca- tions, because of the expense to which they have already been put, preferential opportunity to do so on just basis. It will be neces- sary in order to insure this privi- lege, to perfect arrangements with the company to that end at an early date.

 nrise party to celebrate the silver wedding anniversary of Mir. and Mrs. M. F. Perry.
 Mir. Perry is the popular mana ger of the great Creston-Colorada Co.,. also of Chas. Butters and Co. Ltd
 The party was arranged by the employees, who met by agreement at 8 o'clock. With the city orchestra they marched to the lawn tennis court, which adjoins MT. and Mrs. Perry's fine home.
 Mr. Wheeler, the master me. chanic for the two companies, and Mrs. Taylor, the popular wife of the company's surveyor, having been appointed committee, re- tired to escort the bride and groom to the court. As the committee entered the court the electric lights were turned on and the orchestra played a wedding march, MT. Wheeler leading the bride and Mrs, Taylor the groom.
 After being congratulated by their hosts MT. and Mrs. Perry were called on to lead the grand march in which everyone joined, Mr. John J. Wolff directing.
 The ladies were gowned In white and light muslin and the gentle men wore their tropical suits, black coats and white duck trousers, and in the open court, with a full silver moon overhead and a smooth cement floor (40xS6 feet in dimen- sions) beneath and electric lights all around casting their glow, one looked on and wondered if there was ever a more charming surprise party given or a more popular bride and groom.
 The floor manager directing brought the gentlemen up on one side and the ladies on the other, then at his signal the orchestra stopped.
 MT. Wheeler stepped to the center of the court and in his fine ora torical voice congratulated Mir. and Mrs. Perry on the attainment of their silver wedding and wished them, in behalf of those present, joy and prosperity on their life's jour- ney and many years in which to travel it. Genial Tom Wear then stepped to the side of MT. Wheeler and in behalf of the empluyes presented the bride and groom with "a five hundred piece silver service."
 The bride blushed, the groom tried to keep from doing so, and in a voice full of good will thanked all for what they had done and wished every one success and that each might attain their silver we'd ding anniversary and that 1t might be as happy as theirs had been."
 The silver gift was then removed and the grand march broke into a two step and dancing continued until midnight when light lunch was served consisting of dainty sandwices, sherbet, ice cream, cake and mild punch.
 The bride and groom's health was drunk, then dancing resumed until the small hours.
 Every one voted it success as a8urprise and as a dance, the beS sTer, all helping to make it so anc Seemg that the bride and groom wanted for nothing.
