NAVAJO BLANKETS
ARE LIKE WINE
Proof by Experience That They In.
crease in Value With Age.

The unsolicited, spontaneous testi-
is always the most valuable. The 9TH
er day. r l. Bake, in the course of a
statement regarding the growing value
of genuine Navajo blankets said that
he had sold pair to Mr.. Baldwin, an
orange grower of Tempe. two years ago
for $50 a piece and several times since
then he had offered Mr. BALDWIN SIS for
each Of them.
Persons who are not familiar with
the increasing value of Navajo blankets
asked Mr.. Baldwin if that wes a fact
They could hardly believe that blankets
could appreciate i'm that way. But yes
terday in the Tempe News department
of The Republican there appeared the
following statement by Mr.. baldwin.
made without the knowledge of Mr.
Bake:
Al the Truth.
When i'm Phoenix February 10th our
attention was called to an article i'm

man. in which he states that we pur-
chased couple Of blankets of him
some two years ago for which lie is nov
willing to ay us so per cent profit or
better. Several people spoke to US OF
this article and seemed to doubt its
veracity. To any thinking that way.
we would say that we still have the
blankets which can be seen at our
place at any time and that it is doubt
full If there il any one who is judge
of Navajo blankets would be willing to
take less than a hundred dollars for
either of them If they owned it,

That Carlyle could contemplate with

commendable. That he should expect

SCARCITY OF LABOR CAUSES
PROBLEM ON BROOKS FARMS

QUITMAN. Ca. Dec. 2S-The majority
of the Brooks county farmers are facing
serious situation in regard to adequate
labor for the farms They have been
behind with their farm work ever since
the cotton picking season began last Au-
gust.
A long season of rainy weather at that
time delayed the cotton and later when
it did open all at once the available
labor was unequal to the task of gath
ering' it, The diversified farming prac-
ticed here makes one crop tread closely
upon the heels of another, so to speak,
and this getting behind with the cotton
made the cane-grinding schedule late also;
some farmers are making syrup now
whereas the syrup making Is usually fin
ished by the first of December.
The serious feature of this is the delay
of the winter oat crop which is always
planted early in Dece nber and is usual
~ up by this time. Oats planted here
as late as January make a stocky forage
crop with very little grain; they have
to be sown, early jim December TO make
heavy grain yield. The farmers are
just getting in their oats and the heavy
rains this week are adding to the delay.
K. ]. Young. large farmer, says the
delay is chiefly due to the scarcity Of
labor. particularly during the harvest
season.
