The big Oakland tract, two blocks
north of the State Capitol, will soon

homes in the fall, and realizing the
present shortage in houses, the
Greene & Griffin company has or
ganiZed a syndicate of well known
men engaged in the building trade.
who will begin work this month on
ten substantial brick houses. Ove.'
$4,000 will be spent in constructing
rooms. bath and screen sleeping
rooms. Foundations will be of con-
crete, nearly all will be plaster fin
ish on the exterior.
Several new and novel features
that should prove popular will be
introduced. The development of this
tract will be watched with interest,
as the size of the lots is a new de-
pacture Oakland is the first and
only tract where all lots have a
uniform width of sixty feet That
this size should prove popular is not
to be doubted, as of late years the
width of houses has increased with
the result of crowding the usual
size lot. The city water department
is busy extending it's big six inch
water main to all parts of the tract

Marshall Humphrey and Ben Stan
ton the two young men who will
have direct charge of the business
are very well known here for their
hustle and ambition, and now that
they have secured the interests Of
the Sturges Brothers in the concern,

Humphrey says that a visit to
Petaluma, the poultry center of the
WORLD helps one to realize the Won
derful possibilities of the poultry in
dustry in the Salt River Valley
Petaluma is surrounded by no such
country as is Phoenix, and many
ways this community has superior
advantages for the business. In 1913
Petaluma shipped 10464,744 dozen
eggs. and 8S,824 dozen Of live and
dressed poultry. 1t is well known
that the supply OF poultry products
here does not even take care Of To-

nothing of many Of the outside Ari-

The new concern remains at the old
location on East Jefferson. Stu1ges

ton to the wholesale hay business.

REAL ESTATE
SMALL ACREAGE FARMS WILL
AGAIN Be POPULAR THIS FALL

to make a more than ordinary good
living for the farmer and his family.
The recent exposition of farm pro-
ducts at the city hall plaza brought
out the value of the best that can be
produced and the theoretical work de-
veloped largely the information, coup
led as it was with experience, that the
smaller areas were more easily attend
ed to than the larger because the time
of the farmer for the small area was
more available to each individual acre
that it could possibly be to the excess
sive area.
The ultimate of the successful small
area farmer is a tract of land well Gull
tivated free from debt-a happy and
prosperous farmer-a smiling valley, a
faster growing city, contented inhabi-
tants The complaint is sometimes
made that small acreage costs more
highly per acre than the larger, but as
an Ell Paso man here last week said
1T makes little difference what a man
pays for acreage that is cultivatable to
an intensive degree even if he pays up
to $1,000 per acre, the land buyer still
gets the best of it. There will never
be another land crop

Manager Humphrey has had much
experience in both raising poultry
and handling poultry feeds, and real
ling that the imported feeds We're
not exactly adaptable to the needs Of
this section, has for some time desir

been ordered Humphrey has Just re-
turned from Petaluma, California,
where he has been study

poultry feed mills, etc. Besides buy
ing the machinery he engaged the
services of a poultry feed grinding
expert who will arrive in a few days
to superintend the installing of the
plant in the company's large ware
houses. at Second street and Harrison.
1t appears that most of the i'm
ported feeds contain too much corn
and other heating foods, that are not
desirable for feeding in warm eli
mates In the foods to be ground
here, very carefully worked out and
tested formulas will be used. so that

Values for Valley

Indications are that there will be
revival of business in small farming
areas in this valley during the coming

FOR small tracts where an intensive
cultivation will cause the wonderfully
rich land to produce to its utmost. The
effect Of this will be to enhance the
value of the land, the independence of

munity in general and to conserve the
