Thru subscriptions from large auto

Association has raised s5.000,00O for a

to have the road maintained by the
national government.
Mr.. Bolton was in telephone COM

raised
Favorable Report Expected.
The conference will take up the
proposition and will probably report
favorably to use the fund to supply
concrete and macadam TO every county
on the highway under the condition
that the county construct the road.
The Lincoln Highway Association will
guarantee to the United States gov

1t is held point Of advantage that
the highway should pass thru the ma

A H Gardner, who has charge of the of the referendum peti. tions throughout the counties of the state, sent in, yesterday, to the sec retsry of state ll53. signatures to the petitions that will refer the county seat removal bill to the people ct the next election.
 Petitions have been received from the following counties: Cochiss, Santa Crus, Pima. Gils, Graham. Msricopa, Pinsl.

 That the measure does not mt ct with the approval of not alone the citizens and taxpayers of Coch' Sc county, but throughout the many counties of Arizooa, is plainly shown by the way signatures to the reieren- dun petitions are coming in.
 Mir Gardner expects to have about 20O0 oanes op file with the secretary of the state before the time ci fling i'

Before the end of the present month the Sulphur Spring and San Pedro valley farmers will be shipping their bean crop. By far the larger part of the crop will he taken by local desl- CTS.
 Some time ago there was talk of the formation of an association by the farmers. but this seems to have fallen through. Arrangements had gone SO far that c tentative date for . meet ing ct Lowell had been sarrsnged but farmers now say that interest in the plan IS waning and there is little chance that the association will be formed this year. ct least.
 The crop this year is expected to be little larger than last year, bus the 1914 crop will be . record one, so. cording to present indications. Both valleys are now rapidly settling up and new settlers are coming in every week. It has bsen demonstrated that the climate and soil is particular. ly adaptable to besns and that excel~ lent returns are receiytd from this crop. Those who have been touring the valleys recently with view to making bean purchases, report that the farmers expect to greatly increase the acreage of bean planting for next year.

Makes Anyone Feel Ole

Nothing ages anyone more quickly than
weak kidneys.
1t is not alone the aching back. the stiff,
painful joints, but the evil effect of bad,
poisoned blood on the nerves, the vital
organs and the digestion.
The condition of the kidneys makes good
health or ill-health.
The kidneys are the filters of the blood.
~, Active kidneys filter from the blood ev-
cry day over enc ounce of poisonous waste
and pass il off dissolved in the urine. g..
Ii the kidneys are weak or diseased, only
part Of this fltering is done and the blood
is heavy with uric acid and other poison
Gus or waste matter.
Instead of being nourished by the
blood, the nerves and vital organs are ir-
ritated, and the circulation, digestion, ETC.,
are disturbed.
If your back aches constantly, il your
joints are stiff, lame and painful, suspect
the kidneys.
Kidney sufferers are likely TO feel dull,
heavy. restless at night, rheumatic, dizzy
at times, subject to headaches and an
noyed with sharp. piercing pains that
make work an agony and rest impossible.
Doan's Kidney Pills are the best-recom-
mended and most widely used remedy for
weak or diseased kidneys. They act quick
~; contain no poisonous nor habit-form-
ing drugs and leave no bad afteraffects
of any kind-just make you feel better all
over.
