A CITY REBUILT THREE YEARS

Nineteen hundred and nine was d busy and eventful year for California;
 and particularly for it's principal com mercial city. San Francisco. Its open ing saw the retail districts still crowded into temporary wooden build
 ings on Van Ness avenue and Fillmore street, two crowded retail centers, re- spectively a mile and a mile and a half from the old down town district. which had been destroyed in the fire of 1906. Business in these congested districts was accompanied by many hardships and inconveniences, such as lack of room to display merchandise, small stocks and high insurance rates. The opening of the year 1909 marked the beginning of the end of this un- satisfactory condition and saw the ex- odus of the retail merchants back to the rebuilt downtown shopping dis tricts within the same territorial linn its in which they had dwelt and pros pered before the fire. The exodus of the retail merchants was continually going on during the first ten months of the year, until the month of Octo- Der found them practically all in the new downtown districts. many of them back at their old locations.

To Operate Cow Ranch" Restaurant
 at Five Points.

A new restaurant has been opened in the commercial center of Five Points. The proprietors are compara lively new corners to this section and they are making an effort to meet all of the people of Phoenix who patronize public eating houses in order that they may suggest a trip to Five Points and there prove that they are serv- ing the best 20-cent meal in the city of Phoenix
 The proprietors of the new cafe are Shorty H. Herman and .'Bill Pas lay. Both have come to this city to spend the remainder of their days aft CT having led strenuous lives of ad- venture and adversity in sections less well suited to the purposes of the hu- man race and less adapted to the liv-- ing of a life of comfort. Shorty claims as the place of his nativity the famous B0wery of New York city and says that his carly training there is re- sponsible for his picturesque and en- tertaining vocabulary He assures all that he will make a visit to the res taiIrant a literary as well as gas tronoinic treat. For fifteen years Herman has been travelling with carnival company and deserves place in the hall of fame as the inventor of the fortune telling tube now so common at fairs throughout the coun- try. He has seen most of the country but has decided that he likes the clim- ate and people in this section better than in any other. Consequently he has cast his lot with the builders of the Salt river valley and will re- main here for the rest of his days

A Timely Talk With The Potato
Growers

Whether farming intcnsively or ex
tensively, farmers are always interest
ed in potatoes. Considering the eX
pense and the labor which this crop
involves, the question arises, how can
we make this a paying crop'
There are two fundamental factors
which the potato grower must con-
slider. First. the seeds, and, second,
the soil; both as affected by fungus
parasites. Every potato grower is
familiar with the potato disease known
as scab. This malady is one OF the
most serious drawbacks to potato cul-
ture. 1t is reported from every State
in the Union, and this pest is widely
known in Europe This disease is
readily noticeable by the Characters
tic cracks and roughening of the skin
OF the tuber Potatoes thus affected
have an unsightly appearance. As far
as it is known this disease does not
affect tie cooking qualities OF the
tuber, nevertheless it is worthless for
the market.
The potato scab is caused by fun
gus parasite (Oosporascabbies Thax.)
| This organism lives in the soil and is
parasitic on beets and carrots. A soil
free from the scab may be infected by
|, introducing a few diseased tubers.
Though contagious, science has de-
vised means whereby we can positively
stamp out this pest. Two means are
known-soi and seed treatment. These
two must go hand in hand. In plant
ing treated tubers in soil infected
with the fungus, we make no head
-, ~ 10
will not escape infection. The same
is true when diseased tubers are plant
cd in a clean soil. The scab fungus
persists in the soil for six or more
years. Hence it seems reasonable that
such a soil should not grow potatoes,
beets nor carrots for several years,
Instead, grow corn, wheat and other
cereals. But this is not always pos
sible, hence if we must grow potatoes
in soil infected with the scab, we
| must remember, that an alkaline soil
iavors the growth of the fungus. and
an acid soil checks its growth. In this
case, an infested soil should receive
no stable manure, no lime, no ashes,
no carbonate of potash, no magnesia
| All these substances render the soil
alkaline. On the other hand it is safe
to plow under green crop of clover
because the decomposition of this rem
ders the soil temporary acid. Most
of our commercial fertilizers, includ-
ing the superphosphates, sulphate Of
ammonia, nitrate of soda, kainite. mu-
riate of potash, sulphate of potash

Better Than A Marble Shaft

There's a rude mound in yonder grave
yard cold
That knows no Decoration Day,
And he that is laid under it to mould
is only a nigger they say.
He died an old vagrant not cent
did he own!
And he left not a soul to be SAL
They gave him his freedom, and he
wandered alone,
And an old "yaller' dog was all that
he had.
They dug him grave and lad him
away,
That poor old worn-out slave,
Not a prayer ior his rest did any one
say,
But his dog lay down on his grave.
and there you see him, day after day,
At morning, at night or at noon,
And the dalntest mOrSel can't tempt
him away
From the sad, rude grave OF the
coon.
He lies there and mourns the whole
long day,
For nobody else does he care;
Neither menace nor threat can drive
him away
From the grave of the niggcr laid
there.
There's mighty fine monument stand
ing right nigh,
But to me that rude mound seems
bigger,
For there's a monument that money
can't buy
The yaller dogs love for a niger.
