 Phoenix Republican: When the reclamation service gets the chance tC turn the water out of the Grand canal next January in order to widen the ditch, the opportunity will be embraced at the same time to install certain concrete struct- ures in the Arizona canal. The operation will take several days, and the water will necessarily be lowered in the latter ditch. Official notice was given the farmers yes terday of the shutting off water in the two canals between the first and twenty.fifth of January, and farmers under the systems involved in the mprovements were asked to make preparation for the shortage. All the water necessary to prepare the land for the artificial drouth will be furnished between now and the first of the year.
 Holbrook Argus: The demon stration cars of the University of Arizona, assisted by the courtesy of the Santa Fe Railroad. were here Tuesday and attracted a large number of people from the sur rounding country as well as local l ly. The cars were loaded to the boards with state exhibits and farm machinery. During the day and at the court house Tn the evening lectures were given on the various subjects of interest to the farmers To give a detailed description ol all that was worth seeing and the interesting information diffused would take up a whole issue of The Argus. It is hoped that this idea will be carried ont in future years by the University as it will be ot great value in the development o our state. The University is to bt congratulated upon it's first attempt and the Santa Fe is to be thanked for the valuable assistance it ren dered.

An Interesting Column of Items culIed
 From Exchanges.

Tombstone Prospector: Sheriff Harry Wheeler has written letters to his deputies in Bisbee, Lowell and throughout the country, call ing their attention to their duty in the matter of enforcing the anti gambling laws of the state. It is the desire of the sheriff to enforce these laws to the letter Slot ma chimes, crap games or any other gambling games will come under the anti-gambling law, and the law will be enforced strictly by the sheriff.
 Courtland Arizonan: As an evidence of the prosperity of Court land, nothing better than the rail road business, as shown at the local depot, can be found to judge from, and Agent Wilcox reports that the increase in receipts of the Courtland office for November 1912, over the same month of 1911 is $6185.18 or more than 100 per cent. For the month of November, the increase of tonnage, merchandise and lumber. shipped into the camp was 100000 pounds over the pre- ceding month, October.
 Phoenix Gazette: Glendale is to have treat to which the average high school rarely attains. Through the efforts of Superintendent B. H. Scudder, who has been in cores pondence with Governor Marshall of his native state, he has secured the governors services for the ded- icatory address to be delivered at the new high school on February 12, 1913. This address will likely take place in the open, the warm est part of the day, at 2. p. m, and the public, valley wide and state wide, is cordially invited. On ac, count of the large crowd, it is held in the open, and the speaking will be from the south steps of the new high school building.

Globe Belt: The snow on the Finals and the chill in the atmos- phere yesterday reminded one forcibly that winter is here. In fact it is only three weeks until Christ mas. The snow on the mountains is said to be eight inches deep in places which is enough to permit of a sleigh ride. Were it on the streets of Globe, there would be no sledding however as there is not sleigh in the city. One has to be content with gazing at the snow on the mountains and think of other days and lands where sled ding at this time of the year is the rule rather than the exception, Just at present New York State is being visited by blizzard, which ought to remind the Arizonan that although it may be chilly, it is not real winter.
 Phoenix Republican: It has been well demonstrated that the Salt River Valley can raise cotton, and the Egyptian long staple variety in particular. The largest plot of Egyptian cotton in Amer ica is that of Herbert Atha, who is president of the company. On Atha's acres, the growth of cotton under different conditions of soil , moisture, etc, has been closely ob- served, the facts noted and data prepared for future reference. It has been found that the best re- suits in local cotton growing can be accomplished on small plots. As was quite fully explained in The Arizona Republican, the labor problem enters the cotton industry, and makes big difference in an

II Isn't Veneer That Really Counts.

It's what a man Is, not what he has,
which makes him a real man, after
all. Acquired powers have their fas-

compared with genuine qualities, are
not important. Which do you wish
the ability OF a husband to swear at
you in seven languages, or a loving
tenderness that will prompt your hus-
band to speak words of sympathy to
you in commonplace accents? Are
you contemplating living with clever.

the royal artillery. The royal engi-
neers, the army service corps. the roy.

branches Of the service will continue
to wear the helmet until the new pat

The white helmet IL also to be re.

Instance after instance could be
quoted from military history in which
the mere sight of the colors has In

mate victory when the tide of battle
appeared to have turned against them
and all seemed aost. Great generals
have themselves taken the colors in
their hands and rallied their forces to

obviously 1t was not the mere piece
OF tattered silk that wrought these
wonders; 1t was the sentiment insep-
arably associated with the colors that
acted as the spell. N, \.
We know. too. that the capture or
the loss OF colors has always been as

worlds greatest commanders, be-
cause they knew that these regimen

possessors held most dear--prestige,
