money spent sensibly for that which had as great or a greater value than money. In 1908. Arizona led the world in the production of copper. and copper that year sold as high as twenty-five cents pound. The slump in copper led Arizonans to devote more attention to gold mining. with the result that several new and i'm portant mining districts have been opened in that territory. Arizona IS increasing in population every day through the development of tremen dous irrigation projects. which at. tract a fine class of scientific farm CTS. In this respect California often reciprocates. Citizens of Salinas alone have in the last two years invested several hundred thousand dollars in the rich Yuma valley. under the great Laguna dam. So, while Arizon' ans spend millions here in the sum mer, the tide of gold flows back to them again.-Los Angeles News.

 might become intoxicated, hid the bottle of alcohol. About 10 o'clock Rhinehart again made complaint about the odor in the sick room, say. ing it nauseated him. and began to hunt for the bottle. Unknown to the other persons in the house. he went into a back room where he picked up the bottle of carbolic acid that was
 used for steriliz.ng purposes and took the fatal drink.
 He returned to the sick room and
 again went out and drank from the hydrant. When he came into the room he staggered like drunken man. His condition vas noticed by the fathsr-in-law of Nr. Leake. and when Rhinehart again left the room Ut anu lcdhS toifOWcu Outside he clutched a porched col

different in the old world from what they were in the new. But the same blood which filled the veins of the pioneers on the American continent will be forced to seek these new and hostile climes to reclaim the lands for their homes and their livelihood.
 It is interesting to read the advice given by the big men of today to the youth of the country. Some ad- vocate learning trade, some give preference to commercial pursuits. some say simply save your earnings, and some say begin small and grow. But the very best advice to any young man today is-buy land.
 It matters not much where or what the land may be. the next twenty-five years will see all land in this coun- try with settled market value and good land will be priceless. This is the golden age in the ownership of land and the better the land today, the more 1t will be worth tomorrow.
 The young father of today, who does not desire to see his children struggling for foothold on a new continent or in strange country fifty years from now, can make no better provision than to buy land.
 There are thousands of acres oi land-all kinds of land-in the south west today which can be bought cneap and which is growing in value surely and steadily. Have you go' yours?

CONSERVE THE LAND.

Along with the conservation of for 4sts, waters, fuel, minerals and oth- CT natural resources. which has taken hold of this country suddenly and forcibly. is the paramount question of conserving the land.
 The old men of today have seen the west settled up or practically so. The young men of today are seeing the very last of cheap land in the United States, and there is very lit ;le of it now.
 Probably sooner than the question of forests, fuel and minerals, will the question of providing land for our population be upon us.
 It Is true beyond dispute that no longer can the farmers of even the | middle west afford to purchase farms for their sons as they grow into manhood because the price of land is becoming too high. The young farm CT of today is migrating to the west to New Mexico. to Arfnoaa, to Texas and to the bleak wheat lands of Canada-alxays searching for cheap lands. The government is now elloting the very hast of the agricul. tural Indian lands for many years to come and before the present gener. ation is many years older, land will double and treble in value
 It was religious persecution. for the most part, says an editorial writer in the Albuquerque Citizen. that forced the people of the old world to settle the American continent, but it will
 not be religious persecution which
 will force the people of America te

WE LOVE ALL MEN,
 sur OH, YOU ARSzURANs!

The desert is pouring its human tide into Los Angeles from Nevada Arizona and California points. Where one iocanty of the heated zone sendA <ne person to Los Angeles for ths esnwer. Arizona sends at least twea. t~ people. and mighty glad Los Al yeles is to see them Everybody here has the glad hand cut for Arizona We like the people from over there and we frankly like their dollars. They have lots of dollars and they are not reluctant to spend them Sometimes we think that Arizonans are the best spendcrs in the world. It isn't the come-easy and go-easy kind of money with them, but neith CT is it the stingy, tight-wad kind. It is the sort of money that is earned in a biz. clean way. and that is spent in joy and comfort. An Arizonan does not throw his money away. but neither does he hold on to a dollar until the eagle dies of old age HIS dollar was earned honestly, and still if did not come with the sweatshop effort.
 Arizoua's dollars come from three sources. They come first from the mines. next from agriculture and last from commerce. Everybody in bus mess in Arizona averages high It is a remarkable fact that, while the worlds average of mining stock com panies which make good is one out of every hundred, in Arizona one out of every thirty-eight companies or rapized fin all the history of the ter ritory has developed into dividend mayer. It is said that in the great Warren district, in which Bisbee is
 
 located. one company out Of every six organized companies has deliver ed the goods Of course. thousands of prospectors spend years in the search for valuable metals in Arizo ma. just as they do elsewhere in tho world. hut we believe there are few CT disappointed prospectors in Ari- zona than in any other great mfhint zone in the United States We alst believe that fhere is still more unex plored mining country in Arison' than in any other state in the union
 There fs something vital and cleal about the money which one take from the earth, whether it come forth in the gold of the mines or fl the emerald of the alfalfa fields. Thi living joy of money from the cart is recognized by the men who talc it out. and money has for them value more real than perhaps for m. other class of people who labor tha they may live. Money taken fror the earth robs DO one. but adds t the worlds wealth. The man vii actually produces something from mine or from a farm. or from tn trees that grow out of the earth. O from the marble or the iron that i taken from the earth. is not preyin' upon others through his wits. but h actually produces the money itsei' or that which is as valuable a money. and SO he has a perfect righ 1o every penny that comes his way
 That is the sort of money whicl Arizonans bring to Los Angeles il the summer, and they bring lots Q it. Last summer local business mel estimated that the people Of Arfzon' wso spent the heated term In thi city and on the teaches in this vic'n sfy spent af least S3.0oo,ooo in mak ing themselves comfortable Tni was ret money thrown away. bu
