 BIDS OPENED
Will Be Known Today Whether Railroad Com pany Will Award Con tract for Office Building or Will Do Work Itself

Bids for the construction of the Arizona Eastern office building in the vicinity of the new round house and shops will be opened today. Bids were asked for on the entire con slruction of the building, and also on various features of it by the railroad companv. as a general contractor. The
 company knows about what the building will cost and after the open irg of the bids it will determine whether to accept any of them or re
 feet them and erect the building It.
 self Grading for the building was begun yesterday by the road as the management believed it could do that
 part of the work, at least, cheaper
 than any contractor.
 When finished, the office building
 will be one of the handsomest and
 best equipped railroad office struc-
 lures in the southwest It will stand fronting the railroad tracks, north
 and east of the shops It will have a
 frontage of 146 feet and a depth of 66
 feet. It will be an ornate building
 Of steel and concrete construction. concrete floors and roof It will consist of two stories and basement.
 large vault will extend from the
 basement through the height of the building. All the shelving will be either of steel or asbestos wood so that the structure will be absolutely fire proof There will be no point where a fire could get even a start. There will be a large concrete recep- tacle for oil in the basement, from which the oil will be raised by pumps. The building will be equipped with both a heating and cooling system The arrangement of the offices for the various departments is very com plete. One feature will be q large lecture room for the use of the safe ty committed where stereOpticon lec- lures will be given showing the op- eration of safety devices
 The initial cost of construction "il be about $45, 900, but when complete the cost will be in the neighborhoOd of $6O,000. The completion of it according to the present plans will depend upon the final decision of the corOporation commission relative to the application of the company for the renewal of it's lease of the Pres colt and Eastern. If in the end, the company should be required to op- crate the P. and F. as a separate line between Phoenix and Mesa 1t would be necessary to remove a part Of the shop equipment to Tempe.

ROTATION
PROVES VALUE
SUPERINTENDENT PORTER OF
THE NORTH DAKOTA DEMON
STRATIoN FARMS ISSUES A
STATEMENT, SIZING UP sITUA-
TON FOR THIS YEAR.

/ CBy w. r. Porter, superintendent
North Dakota demonstration farms.)
The crop of 1913 is now made. In
some sections of North Dakota the
small grain, crop has been very good.
In other sections it has been nearly a
failure. On the whole the crop of
small grains will approximately pay
a little more than the cost of produc-
ton and in only a few counties will
there be any money made out of grow
ing small grains this year. N1. -#
The corn crop is generally good. The
land that is, in corn this year is in
much better shape to produce a good
cropTof wheat or small grain next-year
than the land that is in small grains
at the present time. ~.
Alfalfa in many sections of the
state, is yielding wonderfully well,
even during as dry a season as the
past one has been. The seeding of
grass crops the past season has not
been very successful, owing to the
June drought.
The prices on live stock continue
high: In general the net income from
the different crops in 1918 ~reinforces
the idea that diversified farming pays
a good deal larger net profit than the
single, crop system can produce. I'm
der such circumstances it seems logi-
cal that the strictly grain farms of the
state should tend more more to
diversity their crops. More livestock
should be kept. Corn, alfalfa and
grass crops should be produced for
their feed. The. farm should be laid
out in a certain number of fields with
the idea of putting on a systematic
crop rotation as there is no question
whatever, but the rotation of crops,
which includes cultivated, grass and
legume crops as well as the small
grains, not only maintain the fertility
Of the land. but they yield larger net
returns to the grower from the start.
The number Of livestock kept and the
acreage of corn, alfalfa and pasture
should be very materially increased
in North Dakota during the next ten
years. This will also result in a larg-
err production Of grain per acre. if
not a larger total production for the
entire state, with increased net prof
it's per acre, both on the land devoted
to corn, grass and legume crops as
well as the land producing the small
grains.

and material evolution. Mr.. Tighe
first spoke of the evolution of material
things. He showed how the country
changed every day for years and in
the end everything went back into
nature and was taken out years after.
He took the example Of a tree many
years old. 1t vas blown over and then
it rotted and every day a minute
change took place. 1t then went back
into nature until it couldn't be recog-
nized in the original form. He then
went to show that if a studet took
interest in his work every day a
change would take place, but that the
student would not know of this ,evo-
luton, but would become smarter and
would be fully paid for the time taken
while studying.
