BRAZIL'S VALORiZA-
TON SCHEME

News from the coffee market cen
ters-New York especially-gives the
information that the price Of coffee
is going sharply higher, and the
poor consumer who loves his cup
that cheers" viii either have to cut
down on the size and strength of his
cup or else find his coffee bill steadi-
ly mounting.
The principal reason for the adj
vance, IL is said, is the corner in
the green berry, although this eX-
PLANTATION is scoffed at by many lead
ing New York importers. However
it is admitted that purchases of from
200. 900 to 100000 bags have been
made recently lin anticipation Of the
expected rise, which is fair evidence
that there is some undetermined work
going on in the coffee market"
Although the coffee berry harvests
the last two or three years have
been the largest in history, there are
only 900, 900 bags available for market
in New York, while there are over
6 500. 600 bags held back from the
market under the provisions Of the
BraziIian-- government in order to
keep up prices, passed the valoriza
ton act which provides that certain
quantities of coffee may be sold each
year by the government, provided
prices are right" In the last eigh-
teen months coffee prices have ad-
vanced almost 5 cents, from SIS to
IL cents q pound.
With an available supply of 100000
bags-which is even less than one
half of the supply year ago-to
supply the country for the balance
of 1910, it is an easy proposition t.
figure what the consumer will get
done to him before the year closes
And the regrettable part of the whole
thing is, that when prices are once
advanced they, like the once-famous
pugilist, never come back."-lndian-

working with, had left him there and
started toward home again. 1t was
bright moonlight and before she had
passed beyong hailing distance of
those she left, she saw the body of
the little one lying in the mud. She
called TO the .searchers and they
joined her at once.
What had been the experience of
the child during the long afternoon
can only be imagined but from the
fact that the bitches had been so
carefully examined earlier in the day
it seems more than likely that the
little girl was not then in the ditch
but was probably secreted somewhere
else behind shrub or bush. and as
night approached crept YEARLY into
the ditch and lay down there to
sleep. the water coming down the
ditch at Il late hour submerging her

AFTERNOON.

Last Night BY Mrs. Custer,

of Phoenix on Central avenue, was
drowned last evening in Lateral 1112

the Black Canyon road, in the ditch
about a mile south and west of the
Clark home The ditch some dis

west and runs toward the Black
Canyon road. The finding of the
body ended a search in which prob
ably a hundred people participated
for the child had wandered away
from home before noon and all after
noon the anxious parents 'and scores
of others had been looking for her.
So thorough and general had been
the efforts to find her that, last even

SPARED and were prone to believe
the little girl had been kidnapped
though there was no reason for be
lieving anyone could have an inter
est in stealing her.
The body was brought to town and
placed under the care of Easterling
& Whitney where it was carefully
examined by DIR. r. w. Craig to de-
termine if there had been violence or
any evidence of crime of any sort.
The doctor announced that there
were no bruises and it was quite evil

The little one was playing around
the house yesterday morning and
was last seen alive by the family
about IL o'clock AS soon as her alb
sence was noted a diligent search
for her began, increasing in vigor as
the hours passed by. until the whole
neighborhood was aroused, and late
last night search parties were abroad
going over the same ground that had
already been traversed many TIMES
in the belief that she might have
been overlooked while possibly sleep

Phoenix was notified and the police

AS the search continued all the
neighbors within a couple of miles

turned out to offer their services.
The Indian school authorities were
also notified and a careful search
was made in that vicinity and a
watch set for anything that might
transpire in regard to the case. Even
the dogs and cats and horses and all
the farm animals were counted time

Injuries resulting from the use of
this substance are very apt to occur
where flea beetles have eaten the

more or less circular brown spots are
