WHEN MARY CAME

Twas in the golden summertime,
When fields in green were clad,
When countless birds sang merrily,
And all the world was glad.
The lilies nodded in the breeze,
The roses breathed a charm,
Oh all the flowers bloomed out,
when John
Brought Mary to the farm!
The farmhouse doors stood open
wide,
Through the long, happy hours;
And all the cool, old-fashioned
rooms,
Were sweet with fragrant
flowers.
The long, wide table, too, was
spread,
With dainty, homelike charm,
Oh the old house looked gay,
when John
Brought Mary to the farm!
The mother, with her silver hair,
The father, bent and gray,
The brothers tall, the sisters fair,
Came with glad hearts that day;
And little ones whose faces beamed
With childhood's rosy charm,
Oh all the dear ones came. when
John
Brought Mary to the farm!
Their voices echoed through the
halls,
And up and down the stair,
And many dainty gifts they
brought,
Fashioned with loving care.
And thrift and plenty all around
Gave to the home a charm, =
Oh Johns heart sang for joy,
when he
Brought Mary to the farm!
His face was true, his heart was
gold,
His hands were strong and
brave,
The earnest efforts of his life
To toll a blessing gave.
And peace and love and hope and
joy
With sweet, peculiar charm,
All smiled on John the day when
he
Brought Mary to the farm.

1t is true that at the present
time Arizona and Nevada are prob
ably mostly heard of in a mining
way, but the time is not far distant
when both of these commonwealths
will be referred to as two of the
greatest agricultural States in the
country.
The West is bound to come rapid
ly to the front in an agricultural
way. Its soils are richer than those
of the older settled States. More
economy is exhibited in crop raising
and the yields are far in excess of
the returns on the same acreage in
the older settled communities. Fur
thermore, the superiority of the
quality of the western products over
those of the older settled communi-
ties is admitted"
DR.. McGee stated that properly
irrigated and tended, a five-acre
tract in Arizona will grow sufficient
products to support an average
American family of five members.
He stated that it has been proven
that one acre is sufficient to sustain
one person.
On this. ratio and at the increas-
ing rate of population, he stated
that our agricultural resources in
this country are ample to support a
population of one billion. This fig
ure will be reached, according to
estimates, at the end of three cen
turies.
DR.. McGee was through the
southwestern country thirteen years
ago, when he led an expedition in
the Tiburon Island country. On
this trip he made a careful study of
the Seri Indians, who at that time
were a cannibal tribe. He also
made studies of other desert Indians.
He is one of the best known eX-
plorers in this country, and he is
widely known as an author on sub
jects relating to arid countries.

BAD DRINKING WATER A COMMON
CAUSE OF SICKNESS

One of the most common causes
of sickness is bad drinking water.
In some parts of the country where
shallow wells are the principal
source of supply, diarrhoea is quite
common, and Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy is
in demand. One or two doses of
this remedy will check the attack
and prevent any serious conse-
quences. This remedy is for sale
by Stafford Drug Co.

GOVERNMENT SCALES
WERE NOT UP-TO-DATE
Defense of Six Employees Of Ameri.
can Sugar Company for Weigh
ing Frauds.

New York Dec. 1O-Supposed inaccur-
acy in the government scales on the
Brooklyn dock is the main feature of the
defense of the six employees of the Amer
lean Sugar Refining company, on trial
here for alleged conspiracy growing cut
Of the recent weighing scandals.
Henry +. COchrane, in opening his ad-
dress for the defense today, declared the
seventeen scales in question, on which
the alleged underweighing was done,
were Of an obsolete style and grossly in
accurate, and that many of the govern
ment WeigheTs were Incompetent.
''These defective scales, owned and OPP
Grated by the government" continued
Mr.. Cochrane, weighed more than 100000
tons of sugar every year, and no man in
human reason could hope to supervise
them"
The line Of defense indicated by the
statement was that it would be claimed
the shortage in weights were due TO the
scales anC the government employees, and
not 10 any manipulation by the sugar
company's employees, as the government
charges.
oliver Splitter, first of the six defend
ants called to testify, denied having tried
20 bride a government inspector He also
denied the existence of alleged signal
lights on the dock to warn the sugar
company employees of the approach of
government inspectors.

SHELDON STOOD THE LOSS
Phenix Company Loaned Money to
the First Deputy Superintend-
ent of Insurance.

New York, Dec. 10.-In reply to ques-
lions concerning loans made to state Of
ficials by the Phenix Insurance COM
pany, the fire insurance concern Of
Brooklyn, from the presidency Of which
George P. Sheldon was removed last
week, the state insurance department
today issued this statement:
1.-The COmpany's books show 1t loaned
to Robert H. Hunter, while ne was first
deputy superintendent at the New York
Office, S60,040.77.
1.-THE records show that the company,
not Mr.. Sheldon, leaned Mr.. Hunter the
money, and received the principal and
interest on same.
''The closing Of the loan shows a loss
Of $4,000 to Mr.. Sheldon, to whose ac-
count it had been transferred.
THE department also has been asked
as to the accuracy of the statement Of
William H. Buckley, that the loans
made to him, which aggregated So, 900
in less than a year, and were made when
he was third deputy, were neither i'm
proper nor illegal Their improperly
will, it is thought, not be questioned.
They were equally illegal"
