iished for the purpose either of get ting control of the market and exact ing large amounts of watered stock for the purpose of selling such stock to the public. In the first case, it is argued such combinations are not concerned with the promotion of greater efficiency but merely with ob- tainlng a monopoly; in the second case they are chiefly concerned with selling the stock, and as they can not claim to the general public that 1t has a great value due to monopoly. they are obliged to find another ar gument, namely superior efficiency.
 "Of almost equal importance with the determination of this question of comparative efficiency is that of the price policy of such large industrial combination as have achieved a sub. stantlal control of the market. Those who allege that such industrial enter prises result in greater economy and efficiency in production often over look the equally important question whether or not they absorb all the benefits of such economies in in creased profits without conceding any share thereof to labor in higher wages, or to consumers in relatively lower prices or improved quality of goods, etc. The determination of the facts in respect to this question

 NEW TAX DUTY

Whether the cattiemen of the bor- der district who have purchased cat. tie in Soncra and had them en route to the border under contract to de. liver on this side of the line at a stated price, will have to pay the new export tax, is a matter of grave con- ceIn in livestock circles of the city at present. Several of these herds are expected to arrive at the border at Naco and Agua Prieta within the next day CT two according to loca. information.
 Immediately upon receiving word that the duty had gone into effect, the owners protested No reply to the protests have yet been received.
 The payment of the export duty would mean absolute ruin to many of the cattlemen who have tied up practically the whole accumulation Of a lifetime in the herds they are bringing out and would have to pay far more to get them across the line than they would receive from the purchasers.

If he aspires to it, it is beyond my ken. For the Governorship itself, though, take it from me, there1l be no one who can sufficiently appeal to the proietariat to make even ripple politically speaking, but the Governor himself.

DIVERSIFIED FARMING FOR ARIZONA.

Arizona lends itself diversified farming as well as any in the Union. This fact doubtless will be proven to satisfaction and benefit of Arizona farm CTS when they learn the merits and assured profits attending diversifcation.
 About twenty years ago some of the farmers of Gb' son county Tenn decided their attention to the growing of strawberries. tomatoes and small fruits
 Prior to that time Gibson had been one-crop coun- try that crop being cotton The farmers are still rais ing cotton It the principal but strawberries tomatoes and small fruits next in consequence In 1913 the county produced cotton to the value Of s2oo OOO The value it's strawberry and truck farm produc tion was $l1OOOO0. This greater than the corn crop or the hay crop and valuable than the mules sold or the hogs and cattle marketed in ls3-and Gib son county strong in all these lines of production
 Nearly seven million dollars worth of products were grown on Gibson county farms last year and more thar one.seventh of this amount realized from straw berries tomatoes and small fruits It has taken th' farmers nearly twenty years build up business O this proportion.
