PRIVATE CANhER|ES
 MAY PROVE SUCCESS
Suggested By Young Mems Business Association Last Night

For the purpose of increasing the interest in canning the product of the farms and gardens of the valley, the Young Mems Business associa- tion, which met last night at the K. of P. hall, appointed a committee to meet with the state agricultural commission upon the occasion of the next meeting and devise some means of increasing interest. It is thought by some, and was advocated at the meeting last night, that the indlvid- ula canneries might be installed in a number of cases. This has been done in many farming communities of the south with a great deal of success.
 A very enthusiastic vote was cast by the organization endorsing the stand taken by the Womans club of Phoenix on the subject of good shows on the state fair midway.
 Articles of incorporation and by laws were adopted This was some thing of task which caused the meeting to be held longer than the sessions usually are The associa- tion is growing rapidly: many young business men are joining it.

VAN BUREN PEOPLE ID
 ELIMINATE THE CANAL
City Ditch Must Be Done Away With; Mass Meeting Called to | Talk Over Propositions

At a preliminary meeting of prop erty owners, the Salt River canal was practically doomed last night. Now that land values are going up along Van Buren street, the citizens are scratching their heads over the problem of the elimination of the most unsightly and unsanitary fea- ture of the irrigation system.
 It was at the office of Judge Kib- bey that about a score of the prop erty owners met They decided to do something. and then set about finding how to do it. The first ac- ton was the appointment of a com mittee on consultation, to interview members of the property owner s league, the civic bodies and the re- clamation service On this commit tee are Dan McDermitt, T. J. Pres colt, Judge Kibbey, L. L. Plank, and two more to be named later. There will be a mass meeting of property owners two weeks from last night, and at this time propositions will be submitted for eliminating the ditch.

 The board of survey shall report as soon as practicable the areas so de- termined by them. They shall rigidly exclude defective lands or lands not economically accessible
 Any future modification which may ble lands on account of alkali or other reason, should be reported for the approval of the secretary Whenever water right applications may be accepted for state school lands it is expected that the neces sary additional water supply will be provided by the association by means Ol dUultlOndl We1lS or OlnerWlSe ana | the reclamation service will cooper ate so far as practicable with the association in providing such addi- tional supply.
 An area of 3O,0OO to 10000 acres , can be added to the project in fu- ture by developing further water supply through pumps and through the construction of a reservoir on the Rio Verde, both of which are recom- mended as advisable by the board of review so far as investigation may prove them feasible
 In view of the fact that the water supply now developed on the project is sufficient only for lands already under cultivation water shall not be rented for this irrigation season to any lands not already under cultiva- tion.

YOUNG WoMAEs QUERY WAS ANSWERED QUICKLY

May a young woman marry While homesteading? The question was put up squarely to Uncle Sam by an energetic young lady of the eastern part of AriZona-whose name the attorneys refuse to divulge at this time. But her query is pointed, ana it received a pointed answer.
 Under paragraph : of the rules and regulations for homesteading It says:
 Act for Relief of Settlers on Pub lie Land"
 Homesteaders of the female sex may marry before their land is pat ented. according to the meaning of the paragraph which was pointed out in this case. The law IS the same as for men, requiring thirty six months for final proof and four teen for communication proof with the cost of $125 per acre additional. In a letter to her attorneys, the woman in this case states that her proof has not yet been made. She does not want to forfeit the improve ments she has put on her land, but wishes to retain her identity as single woman before the law. She says that her husband-to-be expects to aid her in making proof on the l land.

The best showing of the day was made in the fore noon. following the announcement of President Wilson's appointments for the federal reserve board. The street was pleased with today's rise.
 The bond market was irregular. Movements were irregular aside from Rock Island collaterals, which gained nearly two points. Total sales rep resented a par value of $1,725,00O. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

HUNT PICTURES
 DRAW CROWDS
Wonderful Representations of Wild Jungle Life Make Thrilling Entertainment for Audiences Which Mar vel at Work of Camera.

Phoenix surely loves a good pie way off Judging from the crowd that packed the Empress during the two shows last evening the populace had just been waiting for a chance to see something like the Rainey pictures for a long time.
 Let us say at the very beginning that they are wonderful pictures. They were wonderful in spite of the rapidity with which the gentleman who was running the machine in the lamp house-we are speaking Of the first show now - ran them through. It may have been careless ness or it may have been ignorance Of what he was doing. but whatever il was the result was the same. They were run so fast that one could not | read half of the captions and some of the most interesting scenes were utterly spoiled. In spite of this fact ! they stood out as a wonderful achievement
 | To an audience accustomed to the wonderful detail attained in studio work, parts of the films were per haps a bit hazy; but when one stops to consider the conditions under which they were made, the results were nothing short of remarkable l There is no gainsaying their in terest. There are times during the running of the film that it holds one quite breathless, and the chs and "ahs" that were heard through the theater reminded one of the good old days of melodrama. The pie lures taken at the waterhole were marvellous. They in themselves were
 worth the trip to the theater, 1t was
 an intimate glimpse of wild anima
 life that was exhilarating. That one
 thing would make any picture fam
 ous, and it was a long way iron
 being the only wonderful thing or
 the film by long way.
 ! They are pictures which no man woman or child in Phoenix can af- ford to miss. We saw them twic, last night and we are going to se' them again before the week is over They are even more interesting on { second view than at first sight. MAITLAND DAVIES.
