HUNT FOR FLORAL TREASURES
Army Of Collectors Always At Work

Many well-known plants have
been developed from specimens dis
covered in various parts Of the world,
and there is no doubt that q number
Of charming novelties are still Turk.
ing undiscovered in remote spots.
The chances Of valuable finds are,
however, becoming unfortunately
less every year. A small army Of
collectors is always at work in ev-
cry corner Of the world searching for
new treasures to enrich our floral
store.
From South America came, many
years ago, the recently questionable
fuchsia; from the hills Of northern
India and Tibet have been brought
many useful varieties; from China
we have had, among other things,
many new primulas; Japan has
yielded wonderful irises; Africa
many varied plants usually Of most
brilliant and gorgeous coloring;
while numerous charming members
1t the narcissus family have been
discovered in the Pyrenees.
But this cannot continue indea-
nitAy, and even in the realm Of or
chids, for which, perhaps, the most
systematic search Of all Is made.
there is not much left to be explored.
For our future novelties We shall |
have to rely, then, chiefly on the skill |
IF our hyDridists, who are constantly
engaged in mating different species

our cross-fertilizers, who are doing
similar work with different varieties

He said Underwood had enter

Chloride Will Celebrate.

Today the people of Chloride will jubilate over the completion of the railroad to the mines. and to show their appreciation of the new cOn1i- tions will give grand barbecue, fill ing in the day otherwise with music, a baseball game and rock drilling match and winding up with big ball Everybody is invited to attend the fes- tivities: the more that goes the great CT will be the fun.
 Chloride people deserve the attend ance of everybody that can possibly leave their business for the day and we hope to see one of the greatest crowds that ever showed face in that great lead camp helping the celebra- tion of the event that is to make his tory for the mining interests of the camp. Let no one stay away because of some little business affair The fare from kingman to Chloride and return will be one fare, if 100 tickets are sold, or full fare will be charged under that number. so let the full hundred at least be taken.
 Chloride has long waited for the ex- tension of the road from the termini established years ago, about one mile southwest of the town, to the mines. and its present realization has given rise to an occasion of jubilation, as it marks a new era in the mining pros- perity of the camp. The mines of the camp will now begin the shipment of thousands of tons of ore monthly and will employ several hundred men in the mines to carry on the work of ex- traction and betterments that have been mapped out by the big holding companies.

Don't Know They
 Have Appendicitis.

Many Kingman people who have chronic appendicitis, which I, not very painful, have doctored for years for gas on the stomach, sour stomach or constipation. H. H. Watkins states if these people will try simple buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc, as compounded in Adler-i-ka, the German appendicitis remedy, they will be surprised at the QUICK benefit. A SINGLE DOSE relieves these troubles INSTANTLY.

Has Arizona Can-
 vassing Board?

The Phenix Democrat has been ham, mering away at an exposition of what it terms the law and the opinions of Heading lawyers" on the subject of the returns from the late election, taking the view that in consequence of the opinion of the Supreme Court of Arizona, no canvass of the returns of the election can be had.
 But the enactment of law calling a general election on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, 1912, and every two years thereafter the provision relating to the election of State, county and precinct officers of which the supreme court declared unconstitutional, has another provision which was left untouched by the Su- preme Court, and that was section ! of the act, which reads af follows:
 'lf any of the foregoing sections shall be held to be unconstitutional, the validity of the remaining sections shall not be affected thereby"
 Section I of the act provides the method and manner of canvassing the vote cast for state officers and presi- dential electors and congressman. After the various board of supervisors have canvassed the vote in their re. Spective counties the totals are certi- fled to the Secretary of State and on the first Monday in December the Governor, Secretary of State and Chief Justice of the Supreme Court meet at the Capitol and canvass the vote, and upon the completion of the canvass the governor will issue cer- titicate of election to the successful can- didates.
 In the matter of the vote cast for amendments to the constitution and referendum measures the supervisors certify the result to the Secretary of State and that official totals the votes and certifies to the governor, who issues his proclamation declaring the result.
 To the layman it would look as though there was no ground whatever to the contention that Arizona has no law covering the canvasslng of the vote cast at the recent election and the declaring of the result.

Urinary irregularities, loss of sleep, nervousness, weak back and sore kidneys tell the need of good reliable kidney medicine. Foley Kidney Pills are tonic, strengthening and retora- tive.

Good Roads Boosters Here.
Secretary.

Wednesday evening Harry Locke and c. D. Hamilton, of the Good Roads Association, arrived in Kingman and were entertained by the board of supervisors and the business men of the town. These men are mapping the roads of Arizona and were in town Thursday looking over the roads and getting data for use in compiling their maps. The men are well pleased with the road outlook in this section of the state and are of the opinion that the northern route will be the one great thorOughfare between the two oceans.
 The local lodge of Elks have adopted plans for their new club room and the work of remodeling the upper part of the big building will soon be under way. When completed it will be one of the most comfortable places in the state.
