Last Sunday was another cold
disagreeable day, the thermome-
ter getting as low as seven de-
grees below zero.
Early in the morning it COM
menced to snow and blow and
kept getting worse and wors !,
until it worked itself into such a
tantrum that it turned into a
regular blizzard and kept it up
until about midnight, when it
cleared up. Monday morning it
opened up clear and cold and
some Of our citizens found out
that it had been cold enough to
freeze the hydrants up and then
they had to call on Fred Mackey
and Will Moldenhauer to help
them out of their troubles. At
present old "Sol" is smiling as
contentedly as if nothing unusu-
al had happened.

attended by our teachers from
this part of the county. Miss
Mckenna. of Denver, was there
and gave them a practical lesson
in reading and instructed them
how they should instruct their
pupils. in order to make better
readers of them. Miss McKen-

J. B. Arnold. of Arena, was a
pleasant caller at this office last
Saturday, he subscribed for the
RECORD while in town. He has
not lived in this county only
about a year, but he has the right
ideas. He says he thinks if the
farmers of this county will put
in only what ground they can
handle properly. and take good
care of it. they will raise better
crops, and then get some good
milch cows, and put their feed
into silos, they will make them
selves a good living here. He
had not been here only about a
month, when he built a silo, and
he put a small amount of feed in
to the silo, and as soon as he
changed from the silo to the stack
feed he could tell the difference
in the amount of cream and milk,
and it was in favor of the silo.

1t begins to look as if the U. S.
will have to take a hand in the
Mexico war. Recently Gen.
Francisco Villa. the rebel leader,
shot and killed John S. Benton,
a British subject, and tits thought
several Americans, as they are
missing. and cannot be accounted
for. The best thing the U. S.
can do with that outfit is to an
initiate the whole bunch of them
andt take their land and dump it
into the sea, as the war debt will
be worth more than Mexico is
worth. or ever will be.
We believe our President and

PAINT u ERUPTION 0N ARM AND HANDS
Could Not Stand Any Clothing on Arm. Itching Intense. Scratching Made Spots Larger. Cuticura Soap and Ointment Cured.

Box S5, Fulton Ill.," My trouble began with just little red spot on my arm and they gradually increased until they had formed ring about three inches in diameter. Then they spread to different parts of my arm and hands. I could not stand any clothing whatever on the arm, it seemed to trritate it so. The itching was so intense that scratched and made the spots larger and more sore. 1 could not stand to put my hands in water very much. It gradually grew worse It was very painful and the itching was terrible. It also disfgured the arm for the time being.
 Then I began using different remedies without getting any relief. Seeing the ad- vertisement of Cuticura Soap and Ointment in the paper 1 thought 1 would try them. After using Cuticura Soap and Ointment for two weeks I noticed slight improvement I used one box of Cuticura Ointment and three cakes of Cuticura Soap and in three months was completely cured.

FRENCH HERE TWO DAYS;
 RETURNS 10 PRESCOTT
Says lie Will Be On Hand for
 Hearing On Monday

After having spent two busy days here comforting with Attorney Rob- ert $. Fisher and with several busi- ness men, c. w. French, Pacific Development Company promoter, left last evening for Prescott in his pri- vate car the Convoy. He announced that he would return on Sunday and be on hand for the hearing before Governor Hunt on Monday in the request for his eXtradition to Utah on a charge of having passed bogus drafts on the management of the Hotel Utah.
 Neither at the office of Governor Hunt nor at Attorney Fishers office had any information been received up to yesterday of the whereabouts of Nicholas C. Morgan, assistant county prosecutor from Salt Lake, who came here early last week to urge the eXtradition of French. In stead French and Fisher professed to believe that Morgan would likely not return to Phoenix for the hear ing.
 Fisher said that he had no mis- givings as to the outcome of the hearing and asserted that after Mon day French would be found right here going on with his business which is already assuming gigantic proportions.

GETS SMALL FORTUNE
 AS GIFT FROM SKIES
Paul Jahn is Handed Present of So2,360 as Gift From Father-Wll Travel

To have some $92,36O dropped in a lump into his lap is not the luck of every man on earth. Yet this is just what happened yesterday in the case of Paul Jahn, employed on the Charles Lapham ranch, near Mesa, when he re- ceived a letter from his home in Arkansas, stating that his father had made him a present of just that much money. The letter came to Jahn as a surprise since he had not heard from home in some time, and since he had expected money in no form from that source.
 Jahn has been in the Salt River val ley for the past two years, all of which he has spent on the Lapham ranch. He came here with his wife in search of a home and following the golden rainbow which leads to the west Leav- ing his birthplace, and looking for his own fortune in the sands of Arizona he struck his present position on the Lapham place. and since that time has stuck steadily on the hard road of tOil.
 Evidently word of his hard life reached his home. Perhaps his father thought of the pleasure of having his grandsons playing about his knees It may be that the old folks at home came to the conclusion that he was not such a bad boy after all Whatever the case, Jahn received the cash together with word that his father had divided
 the estate, and was happy.
 Jahn and his wife are now planning on all sorts of trips about the country In the first place. they will make it for Arkansas, where his father, a re- tired merchant, resides, and where they will visit for short time at any rate Later they will visit Grand Canyon Yosemite, Panama, and in the end will
 take a trip either to Europe CT the
 Orient. They will leave the Laphan
 ranch in the next week or so, going direct to the Jahn home

The block containing the balance of the bone could not be found.
 Naturally there is much speculation concerning the find and it's age. The generally accepted explanation given by one of our local geologists is that the bone is q portion of the right frontal tibia of an amphibieus biped and without doubt the connect ing link between the prehistoric man, recently found in California, and the age when man lived in the sea.
 Others claim that it is a peck bone from the ptcderodyrmillian vul- ture, a huge bird that pecked it's enemies to death with it's terrible bill.
 The bone has been added to Judge knapp's fine collection of antiques and can be seen by any one.

NJ, CHARGE, MAURICE WILL
 NOT APPEAR IN PHOENIX YET
Engagement of Pre-eminent Tango Specialist Might Seriously Conflict With Country Club Arrange ments, Maitland D. Says
 E sra sas

There was an undercurrent of eX- citement in the smart set yesterday when it was whispered that per- haps the great Maurice, criterion of the tango, would appear here. Later it was learned that the rumor could not be verified and society would have to content itself with the steps as taught by that clever master of the dance, Senor Pepito Ferrando. Young Fernando does not adhere strictly to 'the tango" as does Maurice, but introduces a half dozen or more variations among which are the Maurice" The greatest ex- ponent of the dance claims his own figures q corruption of the original Argentine tango and says the steps will not be used in the permanent tango Senor Fernando who has classes in the southern part of the state, was given instruction by his mother, one of the particularly smart dancing teachers in Los An geles and she in turn was taught by Maurice.
 Maitland Davies. it is said, is re- sponsible for Maurice not appearing in Phoenix. Not a case of pro- fessional jealousy. no indeed, even though MT. Davies is some tangoee."
 How in the world would my ac- tors and actresses be able to con- centrate on Christopher. Jr.,' with Maurice in toWn?" asked MT. Davies last evening. There are rehearsals for every afternoon and evening from now until the opening night, March ,. It was question of one or the other and Christopher, Jr.." wins.'

LUCK.

Some people have the durndest
 luck,' said Uncle Abner Bash; Tt seems that everything they touch
 at once turns into cash. There's Silas Hemingway, for one
 his briclyards made him rich: He'd git gold nuggets in his ears if
 he fell in a ditch. He bought a lot in town last spring
 and sold it yesterday For more than twice as much in cash
 as what he had to pay; If he picked up a wornout pair of
 rubber boots, I 'spose. He'd find a lot of greenbacks where they'd been tucked in the toes. Last week his wife drove into town
 and got hit by a train; She got her left hip broke; they say
 she'll never walk again. The company's agent handed Sile six
 hundred in cold cash. Some people have the durndest luck,

BUSINESS REVIVAL
 SEEMS IMMINENT
Time to Begin Advertising and Sell
 ing Campaign

The outlook for a decided revival of business never appeared better to me, and we are preparing for a vigor- ous selling and advertising campaign" said A. T Kenyon, southern repre- sentative of NJ. J. Brandenstein & Co. of San Francisco, who has just returned from the Bay City, where he was called last week to take part in a general conference in the sales de- partment of the company. Continuing, he said that San Francisco people are very optimistic, and that this feel ing seems to be reflected up and down the coast.
 MT. Kenyon announced that his company Is preparing to send a crew Of expert demonstrators to Arizona to make special campaign for M. J. B. coffee Mrs. Mary DeVries and Mrs. Kate Childress will direct this force, and they will arrive in Phoenix in a few days and expect to remain about three weeks.
 While these ladies are in the city we will be prepared to supply free coffee for all social and club affairs here durlnS thelr visit, sad MT. Kenyon. They will gladly superin- tend the making of the coffee and will give free instructions to any of the ladies of Phoenix who wish to avail themselves of the opportunity to ob- tain information on this subject. In fact, we intend to make this a 'cof- fee affair of some moment in Phoe- nix.
 You know, there is an oiu saying that, If you start the day right every | thing will be right and of course need not add the significance I at tach to that saying. The point i wish to make is, that, although tho women of Phoenix are good coffee
 makers, they are progressive wome1 and do not neglect an opportunity tC acquire knowledge that will increas'
 happiness in their homes"

USING SCIENTIFIC METHODS Of FARMING
By Andrew M Georgia State College of Agoutu

The proof of the pudding is in the
eating. Scientific farming is the most
profitable. Evidence of this is found
IN the annual report of the demonstra,
ton farms of the Central of Georgia
railroad for the year 1913. Cotton.
corn, oats, cOwpeas were used in
painting the eleven demonstration
farms. The gross receipts were S16,-
$3.50. The total cost of crops was
$S,l5O.S2. Add to this rent of ST.
44G25, and the net profit is $7335.4S.
The Central of Georgia Railroad is
conducting these demonstration farms
under the direction and advice of the
College of Agriculture, ]. f. Jackson
being agricultural agent and 7. G..

Cotton proved the best money crop.
out not better than oats, followed by
coWpeas Cotton netted a profit of
SZ3.4l per acre, while oats followed

crops. 1t costs $3O24 an acre to pro-
duce cotton, while oats and peas cost
