you made good. Do you want to be a wage earner all your life. Don't you want to own a little more than six feet of earth. Now is the time to get busy. There is a lot of land in this dear old United States There are many places calling for you But the place you want, the place you have had in mind for a long time A place where there are vines, fig-trees and roses. Where winter has a soft breath and the air is perfumed with blossoms. That place is here, right here.
 Don't believe that you are too poor to own one small farm of your own
 You can make it pay for itself. Every businessman that ever touched farm ing has made profit and you can too Take hold now. Get a good grip of yourself and take great hold of conditions and it's yours. The world is yours. The world of a home sur rounded by happiness in the midst of health and with prosperity smiling upon you.
 Remember when word of war is whispered, when stress of strife and struggle are ended, all turn to the man of the hour, the man of the day, the man of the year, remember, the Farmer Cor the man owning his own little farm) is still on the job You simply can't lose.

Where the sun smiles there will be found health. Happiness comes most readily in a land oftsunshine Homes are where the hearts love to finger 'mong flowers, fruits, palms and pret- ty places.
 The materials which melted to- gcther produce health, happiness and homes or We might say human har- mony are all to be found in Arizona In the land of out of doors Where the bedroom is roofed with the sky and where the slumber song is the whispering of winsome breezes from great alfalfa fields, forests of mes- quite or broad expanses of sage and chemise.
 Where roses bloom is the soil rich You remember Omar, q sometimes think there never blows so red, the rose, as where some buried Caesar bled.' Here in the great level has been the bleeding of great mountains, and the rivers of bygone ages have poured their life giving streams and carried down the rich silt that has huilded the level plain, now rich with harvest.
 Here everything grows. The or ange at Christmas, for Thanksgiving the rose and many fruits A round of harvest, where alfalfa is cut many times each year. Eight crops are not uncommon. The perfume of the new mown hay is found throughout the year. Fat cattle and sleek horses, sheep and swine all revelling in the rich luxuriance of green feed the year around. Palms, ash olive, um- hrella and the silvery cottonwood shade from the warm sun in sum mer and affording a luxuriant green adornment in winter.
 This is the Salt River Valley. Where farming is worth while. Where prosperity is within reach with effort and energy. Where the labor of the summer is not wasted in winter of idleneSs. No storage of feed for win ter months when in other places nothing grows.

MANY IMPROVEMENTS /
 IN NEW MEADOWBROOK
Will Make it an Ideal Suburban Homesite for Thrifty
 City Workers
IDDnrONpD1pntC

Improvements contemplated by Greene & Griffin in their new car line subdivision northeast of the In- dian school will soon populate Mea- dowbrook Acres. Small neat cottages will be erected and sold on the easy payment plan and it's ideal location is bound to appeal to the city work CT who is anxious to combat the high cost of living. One of the big factors that Greene & Griffin count on in the development of this tract is it's closeness to town and it's car line accommodations. The Glendale car line extends through it.
 The land is all in alfalfa and on several of the tracts the firm has driven wells which have a pump and are ready for such home makers that desire to build their own home. To those who desire assistance, the firm will extend such reasonable aid as may be required. Under these cir cumstances it is reasonable to sup pose that Meadowbreok Acres will

OVERLAND SCENE
 OF BUILDING ACTIVITY
Three More Houses Started Making
 Six Now Under Way

Greene X Griffin report six houses under way in Oakland. C. w. Cisney, the contractor in charge, expects to start the brick work this coming week. Each house will be of brick with plaster finish, the foundations |of concrete. All rooms will be large
 There will be five rooms, bath and screen sleeping room. All rooms will be finished in mission style porch and steps of cement. Wide caves will give extra protection from the sun. Large and well ventilated lofts will be a big factor in making the houses cool and comfortable. Over seventy
 five thousand bricks will be used in the building of these first six houses. That this section will soon be as well settled as other parts of the city is evidenced by the number of people who have inspected the plans with the idea of buying and are waiting until they are in the finishing state before making a final selection. Oak land and West Phoenix in general is undergoing a rapid transformation Lawyer Jameson has completed sev
 eral attractive bungalows on West Monroe street and is now finishing d beautiful house on lots 13 and 14 block 51 Capitol addition The Bunt
 man apartments opposite the state capitol is a handsome addition and the many beautiful homes finished this past summer in the section con- venient to the capitol augurs well for the future of West Phoenix.

DEMOCRATS ID HAVE
 NEW POLITICAL PAPER

Phoenix is to have another weekly newspaper. Democrats rom all parts of the state met at the capitol during the week and perfected plans for issuing the Jeffersonian in the near future The first number will be ready for the mail October 20. Just who stands behind the new ven ture has not been made public. Les lie Hardy, assistant attorney general, is treasurer of the new concern and a number of other young democrats are interested The organization is not complete, and the editor has not been selected but the main requisite - the wherewithal - has been ar ranged 2.1aa
 All the nominees of the democratic party are to be supported in county, state and precinct, in the editorial columns, but the paper will be lib eral Tn it's policy, and will print the news from every part of the state. Weekly news letters from every county in Arizona will be used, and the paste pot and scissors will fig ure largely in the news gathering, an effort being made to glean the in teresting features of the daily papers from every section of the state. The first issue will deal principally with the political news of Arizona, and give every candidate of the party of Jefferson in the state brief mention.
 Later issues will feature state news but the editorial columns will be largely devoted to politics and politi- cal questions.

POWER STATION
 IMPROVEMENTS
 0N SOUTH SIDE
With Installation of New Equipment Company Will Obtain Juice from Recla- nation Service - Tempe, Mesa, Chandler on Line

The South Side Gas and Electric company has for some time been constructing a modern electrical plant of reinforced concrete in which will be placed the most modern ma chinery that has already been ship ped from the Westinghouse people at East Pittsburg. As soon as this ma chinery is installed the company will purchase power from the reclamation service which will be distributed to Mesa, Tempe and Chandler. The present steam plant owned by the company will be kept up for emer
 gency uses. The building for this
 purpose is being erected upon prop
 erty, immediately next the property
 now owned by the company. The
 structure will be thirty-tWo by forty
 feet in dimensions and the walls will
 be eighteeen feet high.
 The step down system by which
 the high power current used by the reclamation service on the high pow fer transmission line will be reduced
 so as to be available for distribution
 will be similar to that now in use
 in Phoenix The Mesa station will
 receive current direct from the gen
 orator, but for the use of Tempe and
 Chandler it will be stepped up by
 the proper transformers for trans
 mission to those towns and there stepped down to the proper voltage
 for distribution at distributing sta tions there.
 The rate for the use of this light and power will be fixed upon ap proval by the corporation commission and will be of such size as to give 10 the company not more than a fair return to the stockholders for the investment Not a dollars worth
 of stock is held by any person out
 side
 Manager H. l.. Chandler of the ompany stated yesterday to a rep resentative of this paper: It is our fixed purpose to render first class service to the communities we serve at rates that will yield fair re turn on the capital invested. We
 take no little pride in the institution
 we have built up. Putting in this power station is but another step in the advance which will be of benefit 1 to both ourselves and our customers. Mesa is the center of the territory 1 we serve"
