WHAT IF ALL ADVERTISING
 WERE ELlMt MATED?

In the September Woman's Home companion appears an interesting editorial on advertising, an extract from which follows:
 Can you imagine what existence would be like if all advertising were eliminated?
 It would mean more than the absence of advertising in the pages of periodicals and newspapers. It would mean that the grocer would not have his name or his business printed over his door or on his win COW. The drug stores would not dis play the globes of cOlored water. The minister would not announce the topic of his next sermon, nor the nid-week meetings, from the pulpit. There wouldn't even be signposts at country crossroads, nor on the street corners in town and cities.
 If you should visit strange community where there was no ad vertising whatever, you would real ize how absolutely dependent you arc upon advertising. If you wanted to go to a store. particularly the best

OUTGROWN PATENT OFFICE

That the patent business of the government has outgroWn the quar- ters assigned for the conduct of the business is a fact well known to those in touch with conditions at the Patent Office. The pressure upon the space of the building has about reached it's limit.
 It has been given out on authority that if all the printed patents stored in the building were laid end to end they would form a strip over G9,0O0 miles in length, or if placed in pile would form d mass as high as the Washington monument and ten feet square. If they were placed on one shelf that shelf would be nineteen miles long over two miles of cases nine shelves high are crowded in the rooms, galleries, corridors and out of-the-Way hooks from basement to attic in the Patent Office. The pa pers accumulate at a rate which re- quires 100 feet of shelf space a week Wooden shelving and these mass of papers make the fire danger great at-Washington Star.

WHEN WILD HOGS
 PASSED FOR VEH|SON
Incident of Months Camping Trip
 Near Aravaipa Canyon.

w. F. Thomas, clerk of the super for court, Mrs. Oldham and George A. Mcdonald and wife returned late on Thursday night from a camping trip of 8 month in the vicinity of Ara vaipa Canyon where they had a most delightful time MT. Thomas pleas ure was marred by the information of the death of his father in Virginia, a telegram having come for him here several days after his departure but it was several days before the sad news could be forwarded to him.
 He also learned on his return that Mrs. Thomas, who has been on the coast all summer had been ill there since the early part of August though later information states that her health is much improved.
 Perhaps it is well enough to pass over the futile attempts of Messrs. Thomas and Mcdonald to shoot deer which abound in that region, and to cOnfine the story of their exploits to the killing of wild hogs. They exist in that country in droves and they

.PULMOTOR RAISER
 OF THE NEAR DEAD
Demonstration of Life Saving Appa- ratus at Office of p. G. & E.
 Company.

It was shown at the offices of the Pacific Gas and Electric company last night how the dead are raised, that is, when they are not too dead. There was a demonstration by MT. ! a device for inducing artificial res piration in those who have become unconscious from asphyxiation or drowning or other causes which in terrupt the breathing.
 The demonstration was attended by a dozen physicians and others all of whom agreed that the pulmOtor is ! indeed a life saving apparatus.
 There are other appliances for this purpose but this is different in that it's action is automatic It consists of a steel cylinder filled with pure oxygen which is pumped into the lungs of the subject with the regu- larity of breathing. A rubber tube conveys the oxygen to a rubber mask which is fastened tightly over the mouth of the subject after the end of the tongue is brought out. The au- tOmatic action is effected by an in- tricate system of valves. The ra- pidity with which it works indicated the volume of the lungs being filled by oxygen. If the volume is small the action is more rapid and if the oxygen cannot enter the lung at all it amounts to a rattle.
 It is especially useful in cases of asphyxiation where gas settles in the bottom of the lungs into which the oxygen is finally forced. It is ire unpntlV nSp6 in caSaS where na = tient has not been rendered uncon- sciOus to prevent the sickness which attends partial asphyXiatiOn.

QUEEN CREEK
 RECLAMATION
Land Owners of That Rich Region Preparing to Put the New State Irrigation Law Into Operation in That District

A committee of gentlemen, con- Johnson, William McBrayer, Mr Rose and L. H. Sawyer. representing the land owners of the Queen district south of Higley and east of the Eastern canal were in the city yes terday for the purpose of furthering a movement to put the new irrigation law into operation in that district
 It is proposed to irrigate about 25,0O0 acres adjoining the Roosevelt project The object of the committee in coming to Phoenix was to take up the matter with the board of super Visors and other officials and to per feet plans for the forming of an ir- rigatiOn district
 In compliance with the law, the district has been divided into five parts, each of the visiting committee men representing one. They put in a busy day in Phoenix. They visited the office of the state engineer. who is temporarily absent from the city but they procured such information there as they required. They also called upon the offices of the recla-
  sociation. the district attorney and such state officials as would have anything to do with the formation of the irrigation district.
 As a result of their investigations there was a considerable crystalliza tion of their plans and the result of their investigation will be reported to the next meeting of the land owners. Members of the committee stated yesterday that the prospect is very encouraging for the bringing of that 1 area of 25,000 acres into a high state of cultivation.
 It is proposed, of course. to bond the district, once it has been de- finitely formed, and they are sure that with the showing they will be able to make there will be no diff l ficulty in doing that
 I It is to be a pumping proposition and the feasibility of it has been l investigated thoroughly and with the most satisfactory results The aver i age lift is only siXty-five feet. l The soil in that region is peculiarly rich being formed of the silt of i Queen Creek and adjacent streams. 1 Already bOunteOus crops have been raised with flood waters.

THINKS MORE
WOMEN ARE NEEDED

To the Editor of the Star-Mirror:
The women of Moscow believe that
there should be more women on the
school board. There are at present
five men and one woman. The board
should consist of half men and half
women, or at least two members of
the six should be women. The mother
keeps in closer touch with the child
than the father. She understands the
relationship between the child and
the school, and the school and the
home, more intimately than the faith
er does. There should be two mothers
on the school board
Yesterday. at the school election,
some of the women asked Mrs. Joseph
Aspray, as teacher and mother. to
represent them at the election Al
though many Moscow mothers voted
for Mrs. Aspray, the vote cast was an
exceptionally large one for a school
board election and most of the voters
did not know of this. SO the two men,
DR.. Clark and Mr.. Morgareidge, were
elected.
