THE ARIZONA MAGAZINE.

With the October issue the AriZ-
ona Magazine completed it's first year
under the management of Editor &. S
Scott, who declares that the past
u months have been the most sue
cessful in the history of the publica-
ton This success is most deserv-
ing as the Arizona Magazine is do
ing a great work in attracting favor
able attention to all parts of Ariz-
ona That the publication is appreci-
ated by the citizens of the state is
evidenced from the following:
During the year our subscription
list has doubled and the magazine
is now going to every state in the
union, a great many to Canada and to
seven other foreign countries. We
have the largest subscription list in
the state save two daily papers and
the magazine goes to 140 out Of 237
postoffices in the state, a record no
other state publication can equal 1t
is therefore leglmately and emphatl-
cally an all-state publication
But few states in the union can
show as fine a publication as the
Arizona Magazine, and it is well
worth the subscription price of $f.O0
per year During the past year forty
two writer's, aside from staff mem
bers, contributed to the columns of
the magazine, most of them Ariz-
ona writer's and all dealing with Ariz-
ona subjects. 1t is ever ready to ap-
prise the world of the wonders OF
Arizona, and in return Arizonians
should give it their loyal support.
Congratulations, Brother Scott, for
your success, and here's hoping that
each year will be more successful
than the previous one.

FIRST MILITANTS ON RECORD
Amazons Undoubtedly Were the ORR
einaI Fighters Of Their Sex In
WarIike Bands.

The AmaZons were tabled tribes or
warlike communities of women in
Scythia, Asia and Africa. They were
said to be descendants of Scythians of
Cappadocia, where their husbands,
having made incursions, were all slain
in ambuscades. The women formed a
feminine state, declaring matrimony
shameful servitude. They were. said
to have been conquered by Theseus,
about 1881 B. G.. According to Homer,
they were allies of the Trojans in the
siege of Troy, where their queen, Pen
thesilia, was slain by Achilles Theseus
and Hyppolyta, queea of the Amazons,
are characters in Shakespeares Mid
summer Nights Dream" The ANA
IONS were constantly at war; and for
ease in handling their weapons, their
right breasts were destroyed, from
which they derived their name. They
were supposed to have worshiped the
moon. About $50 B. c. their queen,
Thalestris, visited Alexander the
Great, in Asia, with 800 women in her
train.

PersIans Are Expert in Getting Ready
the Juice of the Poppy for

Opium juice is sold in large copper
vessels by the grower to the merchant,
in whose hands it undergoes several
processes in order to preserve it from
fermentation and decay. On sunny
fine, hot days the Persian caravan
carries where opium dealers have their
magazines present an interesting pic
ture. The juice is brought out to be
prepared into cakes for export, says
the Christian Herald.
On large wooden boards, two and a
half feet long and one and half feet
broad, the sticky mass is spread out
With spadelike tools to permit the wa
ter it contains to evaporate. Expert
9nced workers move from board to
board, turning over the layers every
now and then, that the heat and sun
may dry up the exposed surfaces and
render the opium fit for making into
cakes. In favorable weather this pro-
cess takes only an hour or so, and the
opium is ready for the next manipula-
ton.

SUNNYSIDE WINS SUGGEST.

Sunnyside defeated Blythe base
ball team by score of | to in the
last practice game prior to the regu-
lar league series on the new diamond
at the Solano ranch last Sunday.
The up-valley players won be-
cause they hit the harder and more
often. The fielding of both teams
was ragged. Blythe infield and out
field consistently booted every other
ball that was hit out while Sunny
side had a damaging case of strong
arm, throwing the ball at innocent
horses grazing in pastures beyond at
every opportunity.
Both captains were trying out the
line up for the league season which
opens next Sunday with a game be-
tween Sunnyside and Blythe. Cap
tain LIE Barron expressed himself as
not satisfied with his present lineup
after the game but hopes to have
his team strengthened by the addition
of Rice and Carrigan, two of the
best hitters and fastest fielders in
the valley, next week.

stated that his lineup would remain

GOOD RETURNS ON EGYPTIAN
COTTON.

The following article written for
the California Cultivator by a Salt
River valley farmer would indicate
that Arizona farmers are making
big margin OF profit from the culti-
vation of Egyptian and long staple
varieties of cotton.
Just 400 and a fraction acres Of
cotton are planted in the Salt River
valley, according to the latest govern
ment reports, and every single acre
is the Egyptian or long staple var
iety At this writing the bolls have
already set on majority OF the
plants and in some cases cotton has
formed and has started maturing.
On account OF the high value and
commercial importance of Egyptian
culture began making extensive exper-
iments about eight years ago at it's
station at Sacaton, AriZ., about 80
miles south and east of Chandler.
The yield during the first year show
ed that only 25O pounds of lint to the
acre were produced, but the methods
used were similar to those in rails
ing upland cotton
While the yield was not profitess.
it was unsatisfactory, and since that
time the government station under
the direction of &. w. Hudson, has
been working to increase it by care
full seed selection and changing and
improving cultural conditions with
very gratifying results.
Last year the ground that yielded
250 pounds of lint to the acre eight
years ago produced approximately 700
pounds. which sold at from POI to
2l.35 cents per pound on board cars.
The experimental station has given
out the following figures covering it's
operation:
Farming operations to time OF pick
ing, $1,000; seed, $l.O0; picking, $50
90; ginning, $1,000; total cost, 7S4O
Lint cotton, 700 pounds, $4,000;
seed, $500; total returns, $15S.OO.
Less cost to produce, $7S.4O; net
returns, $3.50.
In the spring OF 1912 the farmers
OF the valley planted the long staple
cotton for the first time in any great
amount, something like $50 acres be-
ing put in The figures show results
obtained by some farmers with good
farming: Laib Bros, 497 pounds of
lint cotton per acre, while O. G. Bull
lock obtained $3.50 pounds of lint per
acre.
Egyptian cotton ordinarily sells at
twice the price of upland or southern
cotton and heretofore has only been
grown in Egypt. TIL
on cover is a photograph
of the cotton field OF George r. John
son, living south of Chandler, the 2l
acres being in sage brush year ago.
The soil is heavy and to date requir-
ed seven civilizations, but his cotton
is some of the finest in the valley.

Joseph r. Daniels, librarian of the
Riverside public library, was in the

ters for the Blythe branch library.
John Denair, promoter of the pro

in last Friday from the summit on
the Blythe Junction road where he
has been directing the railroad sur

A new baseball diamond was laid
out on the Solano ranch south of the
dance pavilion this week by Frank
Berg. The, diamond is to be put in

Many land buyers are in the valley
these days and several pieces of Palo
Verde real estate have changed hands

have proved beyond all doubt that big
profits can be made in farming in this
district
According to Joseph Daniels, Riv
erside librarian, who was in the val
ley last week, the Palo Verde valley
cotton exhibit drew the biggest crowd
and attracted the most people of any
display in the big agricultural tent
at the county fair.
c. l.. Suits returned early this week
from the coast where he has spent
three weeks. Suits placed several
