trade has reached total of S7,7OO1S. 1 The balance from last year was S929.24, making a total income of SS,629.42. ! Against this amount BIO vouchers for ! bills have been oraWn. the total amount ! of which reached $7,971.S5, leaving a | balance in the bank on April 1st, to the credit of the board of trade, of S659.57
 Bills are paid by voucher check after approval Of the chairman of the auditing committee, countersigned by the treasurer and the president. During the past year an official re- ccipt book has been adopted and slight changes in the system of bookkeeping. all of which will help materially in the future.
 All bills are paid regularly each month. R. B. BURMMISTER,

 Transportation. Your committee on Transports ton" begs to report:
 In the matter of facilities for travel between Phoenix and California and Phoenix and other Pacific coast points, the opening of the Parker cut off has been an important step negotiated during the past year. The opening of the Buckeye line is. too an item of importance. Additional and improved service via the Arizona Eastern and Southern Pacific lines is assured to the residents of Phoenix within a very brief time. Better ac- commodations in sleeping car service over all lines is evidenced. Cooper ation with Douglas has resulted in more convenient schedules between Douglas and other important points. The excursion of Phoenix business men to Parker and to the towns be- tween Parker and Phoenix was fla yorably commented upon along the entire route A special committee on transportation matters has been in council and has urged prompt action by the Department of the Interior in the matter of the Box Canyon con troversy. A union depot for Phoenix has not been without consideration. The matter has been taken up with the heads of the main lines entering Phoenix. Progress in inter urban and street railroad construction has been general throughout the valley during the past year. Action of the board of supervisors in providing facilities for rail travel over Center street bridge is favorably considered. Your committee believes that this is an inn portant step in the linking up of all the towns throughout the Salt River valley
 The advances of railroads to other points in Arizona are favorably ob- served, it is expected that the ap- proach of the Fl Paso & Southwest orn to Tucson will mean a further step in the near future to Phoenix Throughout the territory the indica- tions are all pointing to much devol- .oment in railroad construction and your committee believes that it will be but short while before We have not one but two or more main lines traversing this great valley.

County and Municipal Affairs.

The committee on county and mu- nicipal affairs has been active in the encouragement of new railroad enter prses in this vicinity. The assistance of the committee has been offered in the securing of right-of-way and ter minal facilities for main lines entering the Sale river valley and Phoenix.
 In municipal affairs the committee has taken action with d view to a bettering of conditions in downtown streets. The committee believes that the city would be materially helped by the installation H more thorough system of sweeping, especially the gutters. The committee believes the

assisted in the street paving campaign of the city of Phoenix. The approach ing opening of the Central avenue bridge over the Salt river will be a strong incentive to the development of road travel between points on the south side Tempe and Mesa, and Phoenix.
 The committee notes the plans for erecting a splendid concrete bridge to carry the territorial highway over the Salt river near Tempe, also the com pletion of the territorial bridge at Flor ence and the plans for territorial bridge at San Carlos.
 The committee will have representa- lives at the meeting called by the gov ernor for April 22nd, when the mat ter of good roads in Arizona will be fully discussed.

immigration Committee.

How to secure immigration to the Salt river valley has been the work assigned to this committee, and much work along this particular line has been accomplished Immigration bureaus in the eastern cities have been advised of the offerings in the valley that are open to the settler. The set tiers bureau connected with the U. s. R. s. is kept posted on the opportuni- ties here and in a general way the i'm migration of adaptive settlers is en- Couraged.
 The distance from main receiving points for immigrants, to the Salt river valley, is at present the chief difficulty that confronts us. With the opening of the Panama canal and the establish ing of important immigration stations in the south of California, this diff culty will be overcome. The result of this to our territory will be very bene- ficial. Some effort has been made to secure a quota of the Americans re- turning from Canada for this section, and the attractions of Arizona have been presented to the large numbers of Americans who each year journey rom the northern states to the cen tral and southern parts of California. All of the effort expended in this di- rection is expected to bear good fruit in a short while and already some re- suits are evident to the observer.
 J. w. CRENSHAW,
 Chairman.
 Committee on South Side"
 Harmonious cooperation has been the keynote that has dominated the work of this committee during the past year.
 The relations of the several parts Of the valley are at this time in entire accord. The completion of the S125,OOO concrete bridge will bring all of the south side into much closer union. The connecting bridge at Tempe will add another link in the chaus that con meet the valley towns. The extension of stre;c car traffic to Glendale to Tempe and to Mesa, all will help bring about a union of effort that is now evident to the close observer.
 Representatives from the different sections of the Salt river valley have place on the board of directors of the board of trade, this plan is found to work very satisfactorily and results in the greatest good to the greatest num- ber. J. C. NORTON
 Chairman.

BREED THEATER.

The Breed theater is again showing . programme of all-star features, and 1t would be difficult to select any one as exceIling the other in general ex- cellence. Perhaps the great film dart of Pathe, entitled Il Trovatore, with the incidental music, which was espe- cially prerared for this picture, and capably interpreted by the Breeds musicians. is the leader, as it is a masterpiece of photographic beauty, and 8 marvel in dramatic portrayal. Every. important scene is gorgeously represented, all in glowing colors, by . cast of Italian actors. whose reputa- tions as delineators of silent dramas are famous the world over. This is without doubt one of the most stu pendous motion picture undertakings ever attempted. and is also one of the most successful.
 Every picture on the programme is a gem, and the one by the Biograph company, entitled Fisher Folks is sublime scenic spectacle of humbl people on the Catalina Islands, Califor- mia, the opening scene. entitled The Dawn, being beyond description.

STATE FORESTS.
Connecticut Has Three, at Portland
 UnioE and Simsbury.

There are three state forests in Con- necticut. In Portland, Middlesex coun- ty, there are HOO acres. This was bought at S2 an acre and is mostly sprout band of chestnuts and hard woods, 30 to 40 years old. Not much planting has been done here.
 In Union, Holland county, 300 acres are in the state forest. The most ex- tensive planting done by the state on a commercial scale has been done here. In the spring of 1906 about fifteen acres of old mowings were planted with 10000 two year old white pines. set 5x6 feet. It cost s1.66 to plant 1000 trees. One man could plant a little over 1000 trees day. In the spring of 1907 there were planted 5O.- ooo white pines, 1000 Scotch pines and 1000 Norway spruce.
 In Simsbury, Hartford county. there are 150 acres In the state reservation. This land was considered worthless. It was worth only $1 an acre. People ac- tually hated to own it. The land was poor and sandy. along the railroad. |. burned over every year on both sides

HOME.

My thoughts go home to that old brown
 house
 With it's low roof s1oping down te
 the east, And it's garden fragrant with rose and
 thyme. That blossom no longer except in
 rhyme,
 Where the honey bees used to feast Afar in the west the great hills rose Silent and steadfast, and gloomy and
 gray. I thought they were giants and doomed
 to keep Their watch while the world should
 wake or sleep. And was as young as the hills were
 old,
 And the world was warm with the
 breath Of spring. And the roses red and the lilies white Budded and bloomed for my hearts
 delight, . f.+ And the birds in my heart began to
