ASSOCIATED BOARDS OF
 TRADE TO TALK COTTON
Meet Here Saturday to Discuss Labor
 Questions

Cotton picking troubles will be dis cussed fully at the next meeting of the associated boards of trade of Mari copa county at Phoenix Saturday, May 31. This phase of the cotton industry has been the worst bugbear of any. It has caused more farmers to avoid planting cotton than any other ad verse consideration. But with the characteristic cooperative action of the valley, the men who are interest ed in the subject have attacked the question from all sides.
 The farmers are not alone eX- pected to cope with the situation, but the business men, realizing the inn pOrtance of a successful crop to the valley have been doing some study ing themselves. The way in which cotton labor becomes a puzzling ques- tion is this. For the season, a great deal of labor is not needed, but just as soon as the cotton ripens it is nec- essary to put in a large number of workers at once to work up the crop
 A deal of other important business will be looked into at the coming meeting. It is possible that some ac- ton will be taken concerning such matters as the farm advisor, the hay inspector and others of similar gen eral import

DEATH OF MAJOR ELY
 Al SANTA ANA, CAL
Father of Sims Ely and an Officer oi
 the Confedercy

Major M. s Ely, father of Sims Ely, of this city, died yesterday after noon at Santa Ana, Cal, at the age of eighty eight. For some years. Ma jor Ely has spent his winters in Phoe- nix, but liking the climate of Santa Ana he had resided there for the past year. Death was the result of old age and was painless. His son was with him two weeks before the end
 Major Ely was one of the urviv- ing officers of the Confedercy and was a typical gentleman of the old southern school. He took a prominent part in opposing the secession of Ten nessee but after the ratification, he went with his state. He declined a proffered election to the Confederate congress because he believed that the south needed soldiers more than law makers.
 He enlisted as a private and was se- verely wounded at Mill Spring, Ky. in one Of the first skirmishes of the war and thereafter, he was several times promoted for bravery and was highly commended for bravery by Major General Bragg.
 The burial of Major Ely will take place at Santa Ana tomorrow

BOARD |S ID HELP FARMERS
Cooperation Between These Two Factors Suggested and Meeting Called to Start It Along; Farm Doctor Discussed.

Cooperation between the Board of Trade and the farmers will be the subject under discussion at an import ant meeting of the membership com mittee Saturday afternoon at 1 o'clock lunch. The committee met yesterday to arrange the luncheon and to pass out invitations to a dozen or more rep resentative farmers in different sec tiOns of the valley
 At the Saturday meet it was decid- ed to finance the farm doctor prop osition, and as a starter, the Board chose a special finance committee with Hugh Marshall Jr. as head, to look into the neceSsaries. It is understood that part of the money can be rais- ed here, and that the department of agriculture will furnish the remainder to make up the salary and expenses attaching to the office of farm doctor or advisor.
 The meeting endorsed the Farmers Institute for the splendid work it is doing. Promises were made on every hand of support to the fair and all members of the Board have constituted themselves committees of one to urge larger exhibits from everybody hay ing material worth showing. The farmers midsummer fair is a thing of live interest now, and the Board feels it is time to start with the ready assistance.
 The need of hay inspector was widely discussed, and finally that of flee was strongly endorsed. Hay in spectors are unanimously admitted to be necessary things, for not only do they raise the standard of hay pro- duced in their districts. by automati- cally discouraging bad shipments, but they act as insurance between the far mer and the crooked hay dealer. For instance. a shipment of hay is made to New Orleans. The broker there looks at it-or says he does-and he concludes it is not up to sample. There it is left for month and then sold at auction for storage. The burglar ious broker has the auction fixed so he can buy the hay at a price way be- low the market value, and as he gen erally has been lying about the spoil ed condition of the shipment, he makes a good profit. Hay inspectors will certify the loads and prevent this cheating. A committee of three has been appointed to see about getting a hay inspector for the Salt River Val ley.

LOCAL MEN FORM
 PICTURE FIRM
Will Take Movies of MeXi- can Battles, Panama Canal Opening and South American Cities and h. tcresting Scenery.

For the first time since the trouble times in Mexico began. Phoenix men are to take an active part in the most important encounters to the extent of preserving in motion pictures the de- tails of battles in Sonora. Sinaloa and the Yaqui river country which are one day to be part of the history of the neighboring republic. John H, CoYle and Arnold T. Smith, who with Rob- ert TurnbuH. organized the Arizona Motion Picture Company, and made the first and best pictures of local subjects ever shown in Phoenix have severed their connection with that concern and have begun paving the way for the introduction of Phoenix photographic talent in Southern Ari- zona as we'll as across the border.
 With that end in view Messrs- Coyle and Smith have purchased a first class professional moving picture camera, in every respect on a par with those en1- ployed by the largest film manufactur- CTS Armed with contract for SeV- eral thousand feet of films to be taken in the vicinity of Douglas and Bis bee. the concern has already begun operating. COyle alreay having gone south and Smith remaining here pend ing the arrival of complete develop ing outfits.
 Recently MT Coyle went down into Mexico and perfected an arrangement with the constitutionalists whereby he and his partner may accompany the troops wherever they go and take such pictures as they may desire of the various engagements. Their cam era is equipped with the latest Tele- Photo lenses whereby they may stand at long distances from a battlefield and still be enabled to secure lifelike pictures without in the least endanger- ing their lives.
 Perhaps the most important fea- ture of the work of COyle and Smith have outlined is that of jOurneying to the Panama canal. arriving there in time to take pictures of the big ditch at the time of it's opening and show ing the passage of the first ships through the locks. From the canal they will precede on through Central America and into South America With the array of interesting and educa- tional films they seem destined to produce they expect to return in time to exhibit the fruit of their labors at the big exposition in San Francisco.
 Years ago MT. Coyle travelled all through these sections and is thor oughly familiar with conditions and knows just about what he may expect to ecure in the way of pictures. He has been engaged in the business of photography motion pictures and has travelled for years with a circus. The two Phoenicians expect to spend con siderable over a year in the pursuit of motion pictures that seem destined to become the talk of the country.

SEPTEMBER REPORT ON

This viii Be Issued at Noon
On Tuesday

New Orleans Sept. 1.-The main
feature this week in the cotton market
will be the September report on con-
dition by the department of agricul-
ture. 1t will be issued at noon Tues
day and will carry the crop down to
August 25 The trade generally is
looking for falling off of about -
points from the July 25 figures of 1916
per cent of the normal. Some bullish
estimates are between 6S and So an /
some bearsh estimates go as high As
II or 70, but the majority of traders
look for a report between SO and 70.
The pending report is important, be-
cause it will confirm or deny accounts
of crop deterioration that have bee l
coming in from Texas and Oklahoma.
The market has taken on a rapid adj
vance recently on these claims, and
much of the short interest has been
replaced by long interest If the
figures should be higher than gener
ally expected the market will be il
for a break, while on the other hand
should bullish expectations be met, a
further advance is likely, although
after the advances of the last two
weeks, it is altogether likely that anv
strong advance will be met by wave
of profit taking from holders of long
contracts that will cause a sharp re-
action. 1t is beginning to be a mac.
ket in which the average broker is
practicing conservatism.
The condition figures this week will
compare with 74.S a year ago, 49,!
two years ago, and 1871 three years
ago. The average of the last ten re-
ports is TAI The lowest report is the
