humes, attractive public buildings,
and educational facilities. Its high
school and grammer and public
schools are of high standard and
have a reputation or thGrOughnaSS
in instruction. Civic orders and
religious organizations are strongly
represe ted. The climate is de-
iLhtful, ard coupled with a pur"
water supply is remarkably health
full. The snowfall is comparatively
light, and traffic is never impeded
by heavy SHOWS. the warmest
month July has an average temper
ature of 20 degrees. while the win
tiers average 36 degrees. Two miles
southeast are the hot springs which
are patronized by people from all
parts of the state. The Hroperty
which comprise fortj acres Will z

THE OPERATION OF THE
 NEW INCOME TAX LAW

Get wise. and soon, too, to the new income caN Iaw-uLether you are among the favored few with an annual income cI over $8,O0O or not This IS the advice of Treasury of ucials. Their net to cash in on the new tax Is now being spread. It may cost YOU money if you don. understand and obey tle provisions of the new law, even though you yourself may be exempt from taxa tion. Most paorle believe that, be- cause they don't earn as much as S5,00n. they needn't pay any atten- ton to the uew law. This may prove costly mistake. It effects yitally thousands of persons and business firms, in addition to the small minority with swollen for tunes" who must pay the taxes.
 For instance. if you rent 8 farm or baudiug fer your business uD- on which the rental is over $&000, N0g-aot the owner Of the farm or 1U.ta.-..--are directly @aacially h. able t1 Uncle sam for payment of part o5 the landlords income tax every year. YOU must pay this tax to the government. YOU are held personally liable for i- by Uncle sam. YOU must hold out" on you laudl~ld the eNacr amount of the tax from your rent and pay it to the disJrfl- iuterapi revenue collector. This is feature to which federal otticia'5 are att mpJing 10 direct popular attention today They are not worrying about "taN dodgers" %. Thcy Gu not telr that they will over look P miss any taxes coming to your Uncle Samuel But they do wish every person to know tlat he may be personally responsible for paymea- of so7le part of the new tax upon his l.udlord's rents or profits, even though the tenant him self is not taNaJlc for one cent.
 Todag-righ- now-thousauds of internal revenue collectors all ov- CT the country gre compiling lists Of persons who a-- probably liable for am income tax. The law provides that after November 1 persons who pay rentals, rtc., aggreg.tiug over $&,009 a year must begin to mold out the proper income tax of their landlord for 1913. This year taxes run from March l; that is. the in- come tax is to be assessed for only ten months et 1913. Hereafter, the tax must be paid for the full cal

ondar year. Here is how it will be collected:
 Corporations. firms, partnerships, etc. must file sworn statements eaca year before March 3I of the fixed-term salaries, wages, dividends and the profits paid to each person during the preceding year in excess of S3,0OO. Before June l, the dis trict internal revenue collectors will notify every firm, etc., of the exact amount of the taxes due, which must be paid before June 30, subject to penalty of 5 per cent of the tax and 1 per ceu- additional monthly if further delayed. Three thous- and dollars, for single persons, and four thousand for a married couple, is exempt from taxation. The straight, normal" rate is 1 percent annually on all incomes in excess of the exempt sums. That is, if you are bachelor and earn $360O, you must pay per cent taxes upon S6OU-uot upon S3,G0O If you are married and living with your wife O husband, as the case may be, you must pay 1 per cent upon all in- come OVER $LOOO-not on the frs $4,O00. If you are on a fixed, stat cd salary, monthly or annually, your cmloyer must deduct 1 per cent taxes on all income over the I$2000 "bachelor' or S4,O0O "wodded" cy- empdon amounts. The penalty for failure to make a return by anyone who is not exempt is a fine of s2O to Sl,000. A fine up to $2,000 and Imprisonment for not exceeding one year are .Ee penalties for mak- ing false or fraudulent returns.
 Uncle Sam will deal directly with the individual, too. Each person having a taxable income Jess ex- empdous) must secure a blank form from the revenue collectors office and, under oath, state his net income. He will be notified of the proper tax by the collector. Not ices warning all persons whose in- comes are over $&,00O to secure the printed blanks will soon be posted in every postott:ce and federal build ing. To ascertain whose incomes ar taxable, the collectors will check up by having access to bank and corporation books, with sworn state meurs of dividends from corpora ti0us. The collectors are now com piliug lists of prospects '-persons believed to earn over $3.0U0. Ten ants, corporations, firms, etc, who hold. out" taxes at the source of earning, are responsible only for the flat, straight rate of 1 per cent upon all incomes over $3.O0O.

before the special examiner wherever they may be found.
 The case arose out of the action of B. F. Saunders and Ora Haley, the latter a former state senator of Wyo ming, in acquiring control of a large number of stock watering places in the Buckskin mountains and Kalbab plateau in Northern Arizona through mineral and scrip locations The mineral locations, the government al leges, control half million acres of cattle and sheep ranges, owing to the location of watering places being con- fined to the mineral claims. The To- cations for mining purposes, the gov ernment claims, were made for the sole purpose of securing this eXclu sive use of the water for stock pur- poses. Saunders and Haley trans ferred their holdings to the Grand Canyon Cattle company, Los An geles corporation owning several large ranches in this state. and Old Mexico, as well as in Arizona. The cattle company is defendaning upon the ground that it was a bona fide pur- chaser of the mining locations and innocent of any fraud in the matter, if any was perpetrated by Saunders
  government seeks to set aside the patents and open the watering places controlled to the use of stOckmen generally upon the Kaibab plateau and Buckskin mountain country.
 Letters regatory issued by United States Judge SaWtelle of Arizona were honored by the supreme court of British Columbia, and that court went farther in it's courtesy to this country than is usual in appointing SDeciaI Examiner Smalley commls- sioner of the crown, to serve pro cess upon the witnesses desired and compel attendance before him as tb0ugh the proceedings were in this country. Testimony was taken at Vancouver of a former United States mineral surveyor who is living in that city and who surveyed the claims in question for Saunders and Haley.
 Upon the completion of the testi- mOny of witnesses the case will be heard in Phoenix before Judge Saw teIle. The party making the tour of the western states is composed Of James M. Sheridan, special assistant to the attorney general; Arthur F Will. representing the Grand Canyon Cattle company; George H. Smalley, sDecfaI examiner; John A. Smith, special agent, and other government The Hollenbeck hotel is beaduuarters of the party in this city,"

sandwich, all of which makes a great
 impression.
 On the other side of the building at the front entrance the Mesa and Maricopa creameries have booths un- der the direction of Dudley Webster. At one Of these booths young ladies are dispensing fresh buttermiIk, such buttermilk as takes the mind of the man back to the time when as a boy he turned the churn for mother This company also has the Beatrice Separator on exhibit, with a number of those fine machines just inside the door.
 Belle of the Valley is the brand of the fine butter and produce of the Farmers Cooperative Creamery. There is also a large exhibit of pas teurized cream. Immediately next this booth and on the right hand side are a number of large eases filled with small exhibits from the smaller dairies. The buttermiIk and cream in these cases makes the mouth water. Last year it was these small dairies, and often the little dairy conducted by the farmers wife, which carried off the high prizes on quality. From the appearance this year of the same glass case it will not be surprising if the same is true.
 Manager Headley of the Shredded Wheat Biscuit company has one of the smartest booths in the building, where young ladies prepare the al ways popular shredded wheat for visitors, serving it with fruit and cream, making a dainty luncheon of it Last years exhibit of this com pany was made novel by showing the operation of making the biscuit but unfortunately the machine broke down in transit, and MT. Headley making the best of it, put in the booth and began serving biscuit and triscuit anyway.
 Chi-namel. a floor paint, is being demonstrated in a most capable man ner by Mrs Hopkins, who is one of the expert demonstrators of this sec ton. The only roOmy space in the fair grounds that could be obtained for this display was next to shedded wheat. and so it was naturally grabbed up The Los Angeles Ice Machine company operates the ma chine that cools the cases in the building. On the other side of the building, next to the honey exhibit Of William Tossing, is the dairy ma exhibit. Here are churns, cream separators. butter mixers, and what not all running, but empty, with a mechanical determination of the visitor. There are Empire cream separatOrs, the De- Laval. the original machine, in charge of D. B. Wyandt, sent here especially for that purpose, and the automatic churns of the Pratt-Gilbert company.
 The whole building is a perfect hive of industry, and when it has been thoroughly inspected the visitor is well paid for the task and tired enough to get another bit of lunch from the courteous young ladies that are demonstrating, before leaving the building for good.

CASE CARRIED
 ID WITNESSES
Progress of George H. Smal- ley of Phoenix, Examiner ill Case of United States Against Grand Canyon Cattle Company

Nearly two months ago George H.
 Smalley, secretary of the Maricopa County partisan Taxpayers league, was appointed by Judge Saw telle to take testimony in the case of the government against the Grand Canyon Cattle company for the pur- pose of having set aside a patent to certain lands lying north of the Colo rado river in this state on the ground that the patent had been obtained by fraudu.7nt representation. The land had been patented as mineral land to one B. F. Saunders and was soon thereafter transferred to the de- fendant cattle company, who it is alleged, desired it for it's splendid water privileges.
 The witnesses in the case were scattered through a half dozen west ern states, and in order to save ex- pense it was decided to take their testimony at their homes rather than to bring them to Phoenix, where the case will ultimately be tried.
 The Los Angeles Examiner has the following account of the hearing there:
 Testimony in a government suit involving an empire of rich grazing lands north of the Grand Canyon in Arizona was taken yesterday in this city when w. L. Walker, geolOgist of the Standard Oil company, appeared before George H. Smalley of Phoe- nix, Arizona, special examiner, ap- pointed by United States Judge Will liam H. SaWtelle of Arizona to hear the testimony of witnesses and report to the court. MT. Walker came from San Francisco to conclude his testi- mOny here, his examination having begun in that city last week. The hearing is now on in Room sos, In ternational Bank building. this city.
 James M. Sheridan, special assist ant to the attorney general of the United States, has charge of the case on behalf of the government. and O'Melveny, Stevens and Millikin of Los Angeles represent the defendant Grand Canyon Cattle company, Arthur P Will of that law firm hay ing charge of the case for the firm. During the past six weeks testimony has been taken in practically all of the western states, and in British Columbia, and from Los Angeles the party will proceed to Utah and Northern Arizona to examine a num- Der of witnesses. Upon the compIe- ton of the governments testimony | which is now being taken, the de- fendants will produce their witnesses

 BUTTER STATE
Wonderful Products of Ari- zona's Creameries Tempt
 ingly Displayed in Taste ful Profusion in Hand some Creamery Building

One of the most popular places on the fair grounds is the creamery building. This is the first building just inside the main gate, and it is here that the famous Salt River Val Icy cream and butter and cheese is exhibited, and in here also can be found a splendid exhibition of dairy machinery while in the far left hand corner from the entrance is the apiary exhibit, taken up this year as in many former years largely with the splendid exhibit of William Loss ing.
 All day long there are throngs of people croWding through the build ing. For this there are two good and sufficient reasons: The first is that displays of butter, cream and cheese, if gOod-and those from this valley are always so-attract the smallest boy and the oldest man, to say nothing of the youngest girl and grandma. Sweet nutIike butter, with d natural color, is attractive to look upon, to say nothing of the cream and the cheese. The second reason for the popularity of the building is that there demonstrations are made of foodstuffs-cream, butter, milk, and such like dairy products
 The creamery men of the Salt River Valley and the other productive valleys of Arizona have always been appreciative of the state fair and eX- hibits of the products of the dairies have always been placed somewhere at the fair. Last year the industry had assumed such proportions that new building was built and it is this building that is being occupied this year. The Hassayampa Creamery, one of the largest in the county, has a large and varied exhibit of it's brands of butter in charge of August Hegelund. the two well known names of Hassayampa and Chiricahua ap- bearing upon the cartons. Their cheese is placed in one of the arti- ficiaIly cooled glass cases, and the cream and milk in bottles is also placed in tasteful profusion there.
 The Pacific Creamery company is one of the largest manufacturers of canned milk in the southwest. The brand is known as ''The Lily Brand and taking the name as an idea the large booth of the company immedi- ately next the Hassayampa, where Manager Roland Johnson has a force of charming young ladies demOnstrat- ing Lily -Millk' by-serving- dainty cups of coffee to all and sundry.
