On this reckoning Arizona will become a state by or shortly after February 1. The legislature will be in session about March 1.

Yuma, Ariz, Jan. 6, 1912. R. G. Stitt, President,
 Yuma County Water Users As sociation, Yuma, Arizona.
 Sir: In reply to your verbal inquir- ies this morning regarding recent in- structions issued by the secretary of the interior, contemplating the sale by the Reclamation Service ol lumber and cement to water users on Reclamation projects, there is attached hereto a copy of a circular received covering this matter.
 Your attention is particularly called to that part of the circular which outlines the use to which cement and lumber purchased under this arrange ment is to be put-that is, strictly for the beneficial use of water delivered through government canals.
 The price at which the service can sell cement on this project at this time is 200 per sack; and lumber can be sold from thirty to thirty-five dol lars per thousand B. F., according to kind and dimensions. This price is for rough lumber and does not include hardwoods. The prices for both ce- ment and lumber, will, of course, fIuc- tuate, depending upon it's cost to the service
 Very respectfully,
 FRANCIS l.. SELLEW,
 Project Engineer

 Hereafter you are authorized to sell cement and lumber from the ware houses of the Reclamation Service in water users on Reclamation projects in the vicinity, to be consumed on their respective farms in building and repairing structures for the beneficial use of water delivered through gov ernment canals for the irrigation of such farms, and in lining such ditches and other works having to do with the distribution of such water.

Farmers Can Save
 Money On Cement
 But Not On Lumber
lFrom Yuma Fxamlner)

Yuma, Jan. Sth, 1912. Editor Examiner, Yuma.
 Will you do me the favor to give publicity to the following service or der issued by the Secretary of the interior, also the letter of transmits sion from Engineer Francis L. Sel- lew.
 I find upon inquiry that large say ing in the price of cement can be made. Cement has been costing $1.lO per hundred pounds as against sec quoted by the government.
 The minimum quotation on redwood lumber, however, is the same as the lumber yards charge here, so there is no saving to be effected in buying lumber from the reclamation service.

Bunch of BurgIaries
 And Petty Thefts
(From Mondays Daily ExaminerJ

Yesterday two men walked into the Darling Novelty store, next door to the Examiner office, and one man wanted some fancy paper. MT. Oar ling happened to be in the store at the time instead of one of the salesladies and went back to the rear of the store to secure the paper where the young man haggled over the paper.
 In the meantime the other man stopped to look at the post card dis play and all the time MT. Darling and the other man kept talking paper, he was revolving the post card display stands.
 In some way, however, he managed to slip the safety pin out of the slid ing door in the show case and take therefrom seven watches, valued at about $10O.
 The paper sale over, Mr. Darling and the other man came to the front of the store, the second man made a small purchase of cards, and the two left the store in the direction of the S. P railroad on Madison avenue.
 Somehow through intuition or some thing, MT. Darling distrusted the sec ond man, but never thought about the watches, but did think that the man had got away with some post cards.
 The two men walked as far as the railroad away from the store, where they stopped and held an argument, which ended in their coming back to the store and making a trifling pur- chase and then going on off down the tracks.
 A few minutes after this, Mr. Oar ling discovered his loss and immedi- ately telephoned the officers.
 Descriptions of the men were wired both ways, but so far nothing has been heard of them.

 The chickens neck wrung, the gen. tleman in question stepped back in the house for few moments to allow the chicken to flop around He sat down to smoke a cigarette, and after possi- ply twenty minutes he went out to get the chicken-but alas-'twas gone
 As to who dined on that particular chicken, the gentleman knoweth not, but in talking to the Examiner about it, he stated that they might at least have sent back the "wish bone" for good luck"

Last night about 6:30 Dr. O. I. Tower, left his room in the Gandolfo annex in the Moretti building and did not return to the room until about II o'clock last night
 When he did return however, he found that his room had been gone through thoroughly, and that he was minus a coat and vest, two pair of trousers, a gold banded meschaum pipe, and quite a number of trinkets and Christmas presents which were around the room.
 He immediately notified the officers but there was nothing to indicate what time in the evening the burglary was committed or who by, and so far no arrests have been made.
