ALFALFA MILL
 STARTS SOON
Concrete and Corrugated Iron Structures Nearly Completed and Company
 Is Contracting for Valley
 Hay and Grain Products

With the practical completion of the $2O,00O concrete and sheet iron structures which will house the plant and the announcement that the ma chinery necessary for the operation of an up to- date mill will soon be received here, Phoenix is soon to have. in the Arizona Alfalfa Mill Tchabiitated industry of which she may well feel proud It will furnish employment to a number of labOrers and skilled WOrkmen besides opening mp a new local market for the grain and hay products of the valley.
 When Architect Howard B. Claflin was commissioned to draw the plans for the new alfalfa mill he was in structed to design structures which would be as stable and as nearly fireproof as it is possible for build ings of this kind to be. And how nearly he has carried out his in structions is evident to even the most casual observer
 Constructed of solid concrete for the foundations and of brick for the walls, with steel achievements wherever needed, the main building, representing the mill proper and the stock warehouse, covers a space Of nearly 40 feet by 100 feet, with three stories and a basement. The hay warehouse, constructed entirely of steel and corrugated iron, stands just east of the main building, and covers GA feet by 160. In this latter building will be installed an electrical travelling crane. so arranged that the farmer may drive into the building with a load of alfalfa, either loose or baled, and have it unloaded with one | lift of the big device.
 The plant will be operated with power from the Roosevelt dam, three motors being installed, one to op-
 crate the elevators, one for running
 the general machinery and another | to operate the alfalfa grinders Ar | independent lighting circuit will also | be installed.
 l While there are several fire walls l throughout the building, making il possible to confine blaze to any
 one portion of the structure ant while the menace from the proximity
 of inflammable hay in a warehouse has been reduced to a minimum b! isolating the hay warehouse, the mil

will be equipped with a complete fire fighting apparatus Even the bins of which there are several are con structed by steel Hyrib and non combustible plaster, making every thing about the structure practically fireproof
 Already the company is contract ing for the delivery of alfalfa, milo maize and the various grains which will enter into the composition of it's balanced rations for stock and poul- try, and will be in a position to place it's Zonafalfa products on the market within a short time after the necessary machinery is installed. The company has been successful recently in securing more equitable freight rates to California and Texas points, in the former instance a cut having been made with relation to ship ments to Los Angeles, from $320 to $2.00 Architect Claflin expects that bis work will be completed within the next week or two.

WOMEN OF WEST ARE
AIDING EASTERN SISTERS

Under the title of overland juedis-

about four years ago for the purpose
world to help those Of the east, not in
an unorganlzed or sporadic way, u
on a broad and systematic basis. A
committee has recently been formed in
London. writes a Monitor contributor,
with Mrs. NJ. Friedlander as president,
as a branch of the Verband, which is
international. and mas its headquarters
in Berlin. 1t is recognized that one Of
the great needs of the Jewish women
of the Ortent is to learn economically
productive work: this alone can free
them from their present enforced de-
pendence and bondage.
FOu years ago the Verband set be-
fore them the task of finding employ
ment for unemployed Jewish girls, and
hit upon lace making as the most ike
ly means of affording them a liveli-
hood. A native Arabian style Of lace
making was adapted, and large mum
bers Of girls came forward eagerly to
few years has been encouraging and
there is every reason to hope that this
industry will eventually take its place
in the lace markets Of Europe. Already
the Arabian lace has been exhibited
in Europe and been favorably COM
mented upon.
Farm schools for the training of
Jewish girls in domestic and agricul-
tural subjects which have been estab-
lished by the Verband have met with
marked success. Indeed. this is the
first enterprise of the kind h has
to participate or interest themselves
in the work Of a farm. Thus.a serious
drawback to Jewish colonization is be-
ing withdrawn.

Though there are still occasional
references to divine right az the

belief in any such right did not In any
western LAND survive the middle of the
last century. n in the east only one
ton has managed to combine the old
theory with the constitutional form of
government.
That country. of course. is Japan.
Just how many Of the Japanese now

descendant of the gods. and therefore
