Arizona State Fair.

The late legislature in a bill on
county government authorized
the Board Of Supervisors to set
aside $50 for every million dollars
of assessed valuation in the coun-,
ty, not to exceed fifteen hundred
dollars, for county and state Fair
purposes.
This authorization was given in
order that Boards of Supervisors
might encourage local or county
Fairs, and make an exhibit of the
county's resources at the State
Fair. Professor A. NJ. Nc
Omie, Of the State University put
in considerable part Of his last
summer vacation in organizing
local Fairs in various depart
ments of the State.
With the cordial cooperation of
the Board of Supervisors, and
with proper encouragement and
financial support, much can be
done this year, towards the de
velopment of the various business
interests of the State.
The State Fair is interested in
this matter, because it is the OBJ
ject and purpose of the State
Fair to aid in developing the
varsious.resources Of the State by
making a great annual exhibit OF
the same and encouraging every
hamlet and county in the State tc
greater effort.
The State Fair is not only q
great educational institution 2
great business enterprize, adVer-
Using and displaying the I'M
mense resources Of the State, but
it is also the harvest festival, So
cial coming together, of the peo-
pie Of the State.
Rapid transportation, quick ano
frequent communcation, and con
stant mingling of man with man
is the great unifying force of the
nation.
Local and County Fairs play
there part. Local industry is
aroused, exhibits are collected
and a PARTON Of said collection al
least finds it's way to the Stats
Fair.
Prize winners in a county con-
test generally wish for greater
victories and send their exhibits

Advertising that Sure Pays

A genial, suave gentleman
named Burk, with a splendid ad-
vertising scheme drifted into
town last week with a neat card
all marked off where a
cute advertisement would fit, then
collected a couple dollars ca the
strength Of having the card right
with him. When he drifted out
of town he took the card with
him to use in other towns where
they can't afford to advertise IN
a newspaper. Undoubtedly the
man intends to come baek with
the card or return the money paid
him, as he was a total stranger
to everyone here, consequently
sgould not think of treating them
unfair. -CGeQnino Sun.

Picking UP The Town,

Just before your daughter
comes down stairs for the day
she stops and "picks up her
room.' She straightens the
dresser scarf. She hecks off a
speck OF dust. She draws a
chair near the window and
gives the place honey look.
She doesn't really consider
why she does it. She obeys
some instinct. She doesn't
know that if she could com
municate the same spirit to
the rest Of the family it would
be fine thing for the town.
IF she could communicate
that spirit of tidiness, that
respect for appearances, to
the rest Of the family what
would happen? The boys
would get out the hammer
and the saw and nails and fix
that loose board i'll the fence
and bolster up that sagglng
and disconsolate gate. You
yourself would be there to
boss the job.
Then you would go down
town and, under the prompt
ing of that spirit Of "picking
up" you would notice that the
paving on Main street needs
repair You would begin talk
ing to your reighbors about
the need of picking TIP the
| town.
There is no telling where
this picking up wonld end
You and you neighbors might
notice that. the factory build
ing at the end Of the stree
had been vacant a long time
It might occur to you that
carrying the picking up {
little farther, a little concert
ed action might start the
wheels of industry turing
again.

ribbon is a certificate Of highest
merit in the State.
County Supervisors can encour-
age their own people in the fol
lowing ways
l. By giving financial aid to To-
cal and county Fairs.
2. By giving financial assistance
to every county Fair Commission
er in the collecting the exhibits

3. By giving special prizes at
the State Fair to those from
their county who compete and
win at the State Fair.
The State Fair gives purses
for thorough bred and harness
horses restricting competition in
certain classes to Arizona horses.
Counties could give additional
purses or prizes upon the condi-
ton that the winner comes from
the county.
The Fair Commission has offer
ed for several years handsome

making the best agricultural ex
hibit at State Fair. The county
winning the cup twice keeps pos
session of the same.
Maricopa has won this cup
once and Yavapai once. There

would be q fine thing if some
other county would step in this

gestion in the above letter and
spare no efforts in making 1913

The New Currency Bill

ceeded in having his currency
reform measure introduced III
CONGRESS- which embodles his
views. This bill is such a mas
terpiece Of craftsmanship, and
is so free from partnership
that all parties should give it
cordial support. The bill pro
vides for twelve regional
Government Banks, each OF
which is to be a parent bank
over those national banks
which come under it; for in
stance, one Of the regional
banks will be placed over the
banks Of, say for instance;
Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky,
constituting a region. When
these banks have more calls
for loans than they can meet,
under this new bill, when it
becomes a law they can turn
their assets or securities over
to the Regional Government
Bank and secure whatever
money is needed to supply
the wants Of the business
men in their communities.
The same condition will pre-
vail in all sections Of the
country. It will be seen at
once that this bill will provide
for an automatic expansion
of currency, and there need
never be any more tightness
of the money market.
The fact of it is the Cur
rency Bill is Of more vital i'm
portance to the country than
the Tariff Bill, though both
are of great importance, and
when Congress passes both OF
them the country will be sure
to have a long aera of National
Prosperity which will be pro.
perly distributed to all classes
and sections.
Heretofore the finances o1

A Business Forecast
for Month Of May by
First National Bank

The First National bank of Fargo
has issued the following general let
ter on trade conditions and a business
forecast for the month of May. The
following note is appended in eXplana-
tion.
1t must be understood that We can
not guarantee any of the statements
made herein, but we assure you that
we are sparing no pains to secure the
most dependable figures obtainable.
. Respectfully submitted. The First
National Bank.
The letter is as follows:
With business generally so active
and money so well employed that none
Is available for the financing Of new
concerns or. for stock exchange opera
tions, there should be little room for
complaint in manufacturing and mer-
camille lines. Prospective tariff re-
duction is holding back some lines
but the total value of business Is far
above the average for this season.
Some decline in imports and in manu-
factures will be apparent until the
tariff bill has been disposed of. II
the matter is properly handled by
congress, there need be no upsettins
Of business and the effect OF such
tariff reduction as may be made, VIII
soon be ,dissipated in the increasing
business which will naturally result.
Existing strikes and threatened
strikes are SO numerous that we sum
up the entire, situation. by stating
that the business of the next few
months will depend in large measure
