SUBSCRIPTION So. 90, In advance.

Whoever among Americans has
followed the drift of affairs in
Mexico, and the course of diplo-
matte events in connection with
Mexico's internal troubles can
hardly fail to note, with satisfac-
tion, the way in which President
Wilson has won the respect and
confidence of the nations Of the
civilized world in dealing with
that unfortunate country.
If now in the interests Of suf-
fering humanity, it becomes nee
essary for this government to
intervene and by force of arms
set up a government which shall
restore order and provide for the
administration Of both public
and private affairs according to
law, we are assured not only of
the moral, but also, of the sub
stantial support of the whole
civilized world.
We of the southwest, who
know something of the natural
resources of that fair land; of
it's wealth of opportunity as a
field for human endeavor, and of
the way the people have mis-
applied their stewardship, are
inclined to feel that nothing
could be so good for Mexico, and
for us as that our government
should extend it's beneficient
rule permanently over the Mex
ican nation.
We have not outgroWn the
principles of the Declaration of
Independence. We still hold to
the principle that governments
derive their just powers from
the consent of the governed, =
but we do not concede the right
of ignorant savages to take
possession of a large and favored
section of our goodly old planet
and dedicate it permanently to
rapine and slaughter.

RAISING CELERY FOR WINTER
Experienced Growers Know That Good
Quality Cannot Be Grown With
out Much Hard Work.
(By r. G. wEATHERsToNE.)

(By IL. VI. w EAIf1Eft
Last year we had the finest celery
ever seen in this part of the country
and here is how it was grown:
The plants were grown in very rich
soil and thinned SO that none were
small and spindling. No weeds were
allowed to grow among the plants.
After the plants were four or five
inches high the tops were shorn off
so as to cause the plants to grow
stalky.
During the dry weather we gave
the plants a drink every evening, soak
ing the ground we'll each time.
The tips of the leaves were shorn
off again about two weeks after the
first shearing
In doing this there is always danger
of injuring the plants unless one is
very careful. If too many of the
leaves are cut off the plants will be
stunted and thereby rendered worth
less.
None of the young or inner leaves
should be pruned and only the upper
portion of the outer ones.
All this may seem to be a great
deal of unnecessary work, but those
who have grown celery know that it
is time wasted to set out small, lsickly
plants Experienced growers also
know that good celery cannot be
grown without more or less hard
work.
We grow ours for home use only
and always as a second crop where
early potatoes have been grown.

pearance, if for nothing else out the

vines for effect.
There are a great many climbers
that may be used for this purpose, and
it is easy to select one suitable to the
climate and to the needs of the stu
alton. Every house could be IMPROVE

plentously illustrated with good
pictures.
The leading article is written
by E. Alexander Powell, F. R.
G. S., and tells of a visit which
he made through Arizona some
years ago and contrasts condl-
tions as they were then with
conditions that he found on a
recent visit. The author of the
article marIels at the changes
a few short years have wrought.
At the first visit a dozen years
ago he tells, OF riding up to a
ramshackle looking adobe shanty
situated out In the midst OF a
Cod -forsaken desert, and stop
ping and reading sign that was
tackled upon it. The sign read:
40 miles from wood
40 miles from water
40 feet from He'll
God bless our home.
While he was pondering over
this amazing sign, the rancher
appeared in the doorway ard
invited him to be his guest. In
the course of their conversation
the writer mentioned the sign
and said that he supposed that
the rancher would be leaving
the first chance he got since
things were as discouraging as
all that. But he found a genus
not rare these days, but rare
then, a genuine booster. The
lancher explained that the sign
was not to be taken too seriously,

Almost every paper that comes
to the Arizonian contains news
of some place where capital IS
taking hold Of some neglected
Arizona opportunity and turning
it to good account. Now comes
news of a new irrigation project
in the Prescott region, known as
the Lonesome Valley irrigation
project. A 5000 acre tract of
desert land is to be supplied
with water and put into a high
state of cultivation, then offered
for sale to settlers. Orchards
are to be planted and modern
houses built so that settlers will
not have to go through a starva-
ton time before they can put
their properties on a paying
basis.

munities would envy Duncan
