oceanic freight traffic will be diverted through the Panama canal which, when Prince Rupert was be- gun. a somewhat nebulous enterprise. But the Grand Trunk will gather large volume of freight from the rapidly settling northwest provinces and the eastern provinces, which will be added that class of freight in the eastern part of this country requiring hurried transit
 It may be realized by all that Prince Rupert is much nearer Japanese ports and all ports on the Asatic mainland than any other American port fact due to the curvature of the earths surface Though Manila in the Philippines is twenty degrees farther south than San Diego or Los Angeles, straight line from San Diego Manila is the farhest way around. A vessel sailing from San Diego to Manila would first sail in northerly direction and if it should turning east describe a curve as lar north the Aleutian Islands it would find that apparently round about course no farther than if it should pursue coruse on an apparently straight line to Manila. It is for this reason that San Diego and San Pedro will never become ports from which trans Pacific vessels will sail directly to Asia.
 But for the Hawaiian Islands. every Pacific liner would find Prince Rupert it's shortest course to Asia. All liners do not visit the islands Yoko- hama is in about the same latitude as Los Angeles A vessel sailing from San Francisco for Yokohama requires sixteen days for the journey Yet from Vancouver ten degrees north of San Francisco. a vessel sailing farther north than Prince Rupert and almost skirng the Aeutian Islands, takes only fourteen days to reach Yokohama. So the northern most American port from which starts on a Pacific journey, the shorter will be the voyage.
 To those to whom time is object, Prince Rupert, with its magnificent harbor the end of the longest transcontinental line in the world, it may be believed will become the chief point of rival and departure of trans Pacific traffic.

SUEZ CANAL IMPROVEMENTS

Improvements of the present facilities Of the SueZ canal. with provision for larger ships will it is expected be completed in 191S-l9, according to the engineering supplement of the London Times The company has power to raise in bonds sum of $30,O0O,OOO
 The maximum permissible draft of ships using the canal PA feet in 1S70 in 1890 ships draw ing 25.4 feet could make the passage and during the following twenty-fOur years the increase has been at the average rate of about one foot every six years, thus bringing the maximum draft au- thorized to twenty mine feet.
 The latest scheme makes provision for a depth forty feet throughout and for a widening up to 196 feet inches in the south, and the cutting of appropriate number of sidings in the north and central sections, where minimum width of 147 feet inches is believed to be sufficient for the requirements of the immediate future-Engineering Record.

Spring Remedies

This is the time" the doctors say, when people need btters; the sunny, languid, yer nal day is hard human critters. They're always feeling tired and stale, their blood is thick and sluggish. and they ought to blow their kale for pills and potions druggish. And, being told we're in plight. swallow dope in rivers to get kidneys acting right, and jack up rusty livers We pour down tea of sassafras, ordered by the sawbones and chewing pre- digested grass exercise jawbones We swallow pnts of purple pills and fool with costly trenches to drive away imagined ills and pipe dream aches and wrenches And if we'd only take the spade and dig the fertile gumbO the ghost of sickness would be laid, and we'd be strong Jumbo. Of perfect health. that prec ious boon, we'd have refreshing glmpses. if would toll each afternoon out where the jimpson jimpses. There's medicine in skies, and sunshine is wonder; more cures wrought by exercise than by all bottled thunder.

More Money for This School District

We glad to learn that PhoenX IS growing fast; that the number of school children in this district has been increased by nearly 400 within the last year; that the of increase is gaining that will have more than 14OO more at the end of year. But there is no room in our numer- ous school buildings for than have now. All the school buildings, including the great Seventh building will be filled to capacity before the end of 1s14-15 By using the ancient and unsafe Central school building. all the pupils may be ac- commodated after fashion for year. and after that, What?
 Again the voters of this district will be con- froned by the necessity another bond issue for more buildings This necessity confronts already, the money must be available soon for the con- struction of additional buildings which will be ready for use by September of year. The last bond issue was for s2OO0OO The must be for at least as much for the schools next will be in drer need of room than they were when the last bond issue proposed.
 There is one thing that a large majority of the voters of this district agreed upon and that is that the school building is longer adequate or safe and that the location is no longer suitable for school purposes year ago the voters declared in of the sale of the property to the city and county, at the price of s25o,Ooo site for joint
 
 voters on the part of the city would doubt, de- clare by a still larger majority in favor of it's pur- chase for the why it should be abandoned school property have multiplied within the last year.
 The civic center idea also, has been strengthened in the meantime We have all become more solicit ous for the future appearance of the city. It has grown unexpectedly within a year. We have agreed upon a survey for the proper location of play grounds and for the symmetrical Identification of the city. voted bonds in the sum of s25,0o0 for the widening of Van Buren street north of the Central school property and of it. That is move favoring a civic center, embracing that prop the federal building and the Water Users and the Y. M C. A. buildings.
 The last year. too has made more imperative the need of enlarged quarters for the transaction of the county's business. The court house cannot be enlarged in such manner to make that structure a creditabe such beautiful city as we desire Phoenix to be. the city hall and the court house have grown out of place in Phoenix
 Then there is the urgent, immediate need the school district for the money for which 1t has declared that is willing to sell the Central school property to the city and county.
 For the sake Of the schools and for the sake of the city, the civic center movement should inc carried forward promptly and vigorously That the nucleus of the system should be the Central school block and the federal building block, all under system should be worked out by city planning eX- pert just have agreed upon expert planning for paygrounds system.

A CIRCUS TENr-PIrcHING MACHINE

Farm Notes
BY HOWARD L. RANN

One of the pleasant and profitable crops the farmer can grow is broom corn. The beauty Of this crop is that seed is required. You can take an old broom that has been fed through cream separta intlildW
 crea mseparator and it will sprout like a cane fac kat a county fair. We this last sum- mer with a whsk broom which the hired girl had used to dust the talcum powder out of her ears and we harvested q ball. bearing carpet sweeper with planetary transmission and sue ton that would draw the nails dry goods box In Michigan, which is the home of the broomcorn industry, the soil is fertile that a man can plant feather duster deodorZed toothbrush and turn in a crop of corn that will run 90 bushels to the acre a good track. A crop of broomcorn will never drive anybody away from picture of Lily Langtry Emerging from the Tub when it comes to beauty, but money coner it makes the United States mint look like taking pennies from a slot machine Beauty is only skin deep after all, and the aver age hired man is ornament enough for any farm.
 The farmer who allows mower or binder to sleep out the lawn with no covering for it's head but the Milky Way ought to be appointed guardian ad litem to a goat suffering with sene dementia. The International Harvester company declare that if the farmers of this country took proper care of machinery they would have to go out of business. will buy a S125 harvester turn it loose the wood pile, and allow it to collect all the rust and June bugs in the neigh borhood then come to town, climb up on a salt barrel and kick about his hard luck from a. m to milking time We have found that the kind or hard luck lots of afflicted with is down. right azness and cussed shftlessness.
