Some of the largest fleeces ever
produced come from the State OF
Washington. Sheep grow to large
size on the ranges in the Snake River
Valley. What is believed to be the
largest fleece ever taken from sheep
was brought to Pullman, Wash, by
J. Ross HUSKY, a rancher. The fleece
weighed sixty pounds. At the pre-
vailing price for wool this fleece is
worth almost So. Three fleeces from
the same flock of Rambouillet sheep
weighed 142 pounds, and another one
tipped the scales at so pounds.

BILL NOT A SAFE ONE.

The fact that Senator Worsiey ha. introduced a bill providing that tho state engage ih industrial pursuits has brought forth considerable com nent The people of the state voted on an amendment 10 the constitution last fall permitting the state to en gage in industrial pursuits. It was carried by very large majority Now the senator has introduced bill which the amendment allows, provid. ing that the state go into the manu. sacturing business. build railroads and do other things.
 While the people have said that they believe the state should have the right to do such things, 1t is very question able if a majority of the people of the state understand what it means for the state 10 undertake such great en, torprises as railroad building, which is specifically mentioned because it IS one of the things in this connection that is mentioned most frequently.
 1t really brings the matter down to about the same point as the raised government ownership Of railroads.
 We do not believe the state is ready to go into railroad building or even into manufacturing on a large scale, It certainly isn't prepared III any way to build railroads.
 This would cause an enormous bond issue and place a great burden on the taxpayers.
 It is generally admitted that the gov ernment. which is rich and powerful cannot afford to buy the railroads ani assume the tremendous obligations .irizona could mucn less afford to build railroads in this country, whica is new and undeYeloped. such roads could bring little revenue but would cost enormous sums to build and oper ate
 Before going into business for it just as careful inquiries and exaSins self the state of Arizona should make lions as does big business concern in branching out and adopting a new line of business.

 Some of the present day problems might be partly solved, if this wife knew how to purchase 9 cents worth of rutritious food and then knew 1 how to cook it so the family may re- ceive 9 cents worth Of food value. The middle class girl is in the worst condition of all.

REGULATING BANK LOANS.
Florence protest

It IS reported that the Pujo com. mittee is about 10 draft a bill providing. among other things, that no. bank sbaii lend money to one of its active officers and also that it shall make no loan to a direc lor. The first recommendation is very good; the second yerges on the ab- surd.
 No active banking officer has any business borrowing money from his own institution. 1t practically amounts to his leaning to himself. For par ticulars of the results of this practice see obituaries of many defUnct banks and statements of certain waterlogged institutions still in being.
 But loans to directors are a differ eat matter. Take the case of the small town with single rational bank, the only strong financial insti. tuition in the community. Such a law would shut out all the active business men who were users of money from the banks directorate. That this would harm the bank is clear. The best material in the communitJ would be ineligible. Who would be benefited?

There seems to Dc a determination On the part of some of the members of the house to make an attempt to auseat s. B. Bradner. as a member. Ia the discussion of this matter which involves the right of Bradner to sit as member after having accepted position of emolument paid by the state. a plain violation of a constituF tional provision. the friends of Brad
 ner disclose the fact that lradner has
 induIged in sharp practice in reach
 ing for the salary of the Bull Tick
 secretaryship. The claim is made ,l.at Bradner never gave any bond or even took the oath of offee as secre- tary Of the livestock sanitary board, but the records of the state auditors of5ee show that he received the monthly salary with unfailing Tega Iarity. This is a plain case Of -whipping the devil around the stump in an effort to connect Mir.

.nlvsnsITY OF ARIZONA


 Governor Hunt. in his message tc the legislature recommended perma nent plans for the University to make t truly The University Beautiful.
 The University has been working for a year on permanent plan for tn, erection of buildings and the decora. tion of the campus, according to re ports reaching Bisbee from Tucson. | plan has already been drawn up providing for new buildings for twen ty-fve years ahead. and permanen. and beautiful plans for the decoration of the campus have been instituted. The plans when completed will be put into permanent form adopted 5y formal vote of tne regents, and not changed thereafter This will permit changes of administration in the Uni yersity and yet no changes in whas makes for the permaneat layout or the University campus.
 The new AriculturaI building asked of the present legislature will be. It is hoped, the most beautiful public building in Arizona. The front eieva' ton now under discussion is imposing and is simple and artistic.
 Other new buildings that win be added to the University in the next few years are an auditorium which might be combined with The Museum in the same building, a mining build ing, a-saop building and q club house for the men students. Places for all of these are already selected, though it may take ten years or more to pro vide the buildings.
 Already the campus is one of the ex hibition places of the state, and il. coming years it will be a greater pride than ever to every good citizen
 The University Of Arizona has def. nitc aims for it's future progress. l. does not intend to expand into a mum her Of professional schools and into g. large number Of advanced courses ia all fields of college study. It will spE- ciallze particularly in agriculture and in mining engineering. During the las; few years especial attention has beer given to agriculture and in the com ing years new emphasis will be placed upon mining engineering
 To make the best engineering courses there is need of certain de gree of general college work in eco nonics. history, foreign language. phi .osophy. science. so that any student who desires to enter the Cniversity for the general college course will find ample opportunity for good educa ton; those who require work in ag rieulture and engineering viii find opportunities built especially upon the  needs of Arizona.
