CLOTHES TALK NO.. 2
Individuality
in Your Dress

individuality means a separate
nature of existence, leading a life
after your own ideas, doing things
in your way and not like every
other man does them.
In no way can a man assert his.
individuality stronger than by his
dress, his appearance. Wear the
kind of clothes that suit you, that
are made according to your individ-
ual measures, that have just as many
pockets and buttons to them as you
want and are placed where you
want them, and where they will be
the most convenient to you and for
your particular kind of work. Have
the coat made long or short, just as
you like it; have your pants made
with a high waist or a low waist,
have them made close fitting where
you want them and loose fitting
where you want them. You can't
have these things if you buy :hand.
me-downs" or "ready-mades;" in
short you can't have individuality
in your dress unless your clothes are
made for you individually.
Now these clothes do not cost
any more than the sweat shop made
"hand-me-downs." You pay us and
we pay the real tailor that makes
the.n; four or five different men
don't make a profit out of your suit
before it gets to you---you get all
the profit in these clothes instead of
the four or five other fellows.
You select the pattern you like
from a bolt of goods, that we have
here to show you.--a whole one-half
thousand of different patterns-..all
of them all pure wool, made by the
very best of journeymen ~tailors,
trimmed with the very best of lin
ings, ETC., and made like you want
them made, to your individual
measures.
Such clothes as these cost you
only from

from personal inspection what the
Salt River valley is like.
Mr. Palmer is water user and an
officer of the water users organiZa
ton, under the Elephant Butte or
Rio Grande project of the reclama
ton service. His purpose outside of
mere curiosity was to compare notes,
see how things pertaining to irriga
ton are done in this valley that he
might take advantage of any new
ideas, and incidentally to inspect the
valley of which he has heard so
much. He was given a ride to the
Granite Reef dam on the north side
and back on the south side via Mesa
with Engineers Hill and Reed. He
said that though he was quite well
informed concerning the valley by
reading about it, he was still sur
prised at the extent of it and the
almost perfect way in which the irri-
gable lands lay. The evidence of fer-e
tility were ample and he has no doubt
of the claims made for the cropping
resources of the soil.
Comparing it with his own country
he said he believed their soil, some
of it, at least, was as good if not
better, it being an alluvial deposit
along the Rio Grande, but nowhere
have they a large quantity in one
place, the Rio Grande project being
a long shoe string of soil reaching
from Ell Paso north for a great dis
lance He says they raise as big
crops as anybody when they get the
water and they are now like this val
ley, hopeful that that question is
practically settled.
Mr.. Palmer was not only compli-
mentary in his opinion of the valley
but quite enthusiastic over Phoenix
as an up-to- date American city, and
even congratulated the people on the
climate. While it is confessedly hot
just now it is hot everywhere but
not nearly so oppressive as in most
places.

week. it would seem that the Fourth
will be a wet day in Roosevelt, espe-
cially as strong drink is barred in
this mans town and a heavy thirst
has accumulated since the last visit
to cities that are wet. These two
recent arrivals have taken the town
by storm, as while they are not ex-
actly the genuine goods, with good
old drunk attachment, they are as
near a satisfying quantity without
the inebriating quality as could well
be substituted or attained.
