The strawberry season will be practi
cally over by the end of this week
Berries have been plentiful and of ex-
cellent quality and have made splendid
returns to the growers despite the fact
that hundreds of crates have rotted on
the vines for lack of pickers. The bus
mess men Of town earned the gratitude
of many growers by turning out several
days and helping pick. Possibly by
another year growers may be able to
combine and make arrangements so
that transient pickers may be held till
the end of the season by some form of
contract which withholds part of their
earnings until the end of the picking.

CONCENSUS OF OPINION
|s---|Ts COOL HERE
Weather Man has Statement Backed
by Fra Elburtus His Own Self.
It S cool here.

It's cool here.
What, you don't believe it? Hear
what the weather man says.
Spring has remained cool this year
much later than in 1912 or 1911. The
thermometer has not yet reached one
hundred degrees, and this is the first
year for some time it has not done SO
ere this"
Comparative temperatures for some
years back show that the valley has
been cooling a trifle each year. Most
years the mercury Whoops it up around
the century mark along the middle of
the month, but this year, it is almost
the end of the month, with little indi-
cation of the weather getting hotter
than this until June is here.
Speaking of coolth. Ebert Hubbard
remarked that he had greatly enjoyed
the balmy warmth of the train ride
across the desert, and that coming
after his recent experiences in frozen
Canada the Arizona weather is re
freshing as all get out Ordinarily a
stranger remarks the fervid state of
the atmosphere before he does the lus-
cious greenness of the fields. But the
visitor in question saw the result and
condOned the cause.

There is such a thing as quality
(buying power) in circulation. In the
Republicans quality circulation the
bad payers and dead beats have been
well culled out. The subscription
price of The Republican is fifty per
cent higher than that of any other
Phoenix newspaper. The large paid
subscription list of The Republican
illustrates the fact that these people
believe it is worth the money. The
people who read The Republican have
money to pay for it; also money to
pay for the thousand and one things
they buy from merchants that adj
vertfse in it. What does it avail the
advertiser if he patronizes a paper
with a circulation as large as the
New York World if a large number
of the readers are made up of. non
payers, non-readers of the English
language, and non-buyers?
When an advertiser makes a yearly
contract with The Republican he is
assured of a definite amount of bona
ffde paid-in advance circulation, of
high purchasing power.
