Decline in Exports
The temporary rise, however. has in
many cases not been overcome by the
decline that was general yesterday in
products largely exported. Flour is still
about so cents a barrel higher than a
week ago, although the drop in wheat
corresponds to a decline of 20 cents a
barrel.
The rapidity with which shifts in the
wholesale market show themselves in

case. \ week was not enough to in

is a war in Europe 10 begin to show
Itself in their daily cost of living. The
indications are that the prices of many
food essentials will be reduced at first
and only a few made more expensive.
The reason for this. it was pointed
out yesterday by members of the Pro
duCe Exchange and Of wholesale food
stuffs firms. IS the difficulty of getting
grains and other foods across the At
Iantic. OF course there IS a demand
for them in Europe, and of course if
there is a general war the demand Will
be greater. But the moro general the
war is the more difficult TO obtain
transportation, to transfer money be
tween the two continents or to insure
food in transit.
The result is food materials which
in normal times would be sent to Eu-
rope pile up in this country. There is
drops accordingly. Wheat has been
forced down by the difticulty-or rath-
er the impos gibility-Of shipping it to
the ports of Europe.
Foodstuffs, which normally are not
evonrted in large quantities, will rot
be affected in this way. The general
OPINION is beef and other products,

States, will not shift greatly in price

1t does mean the first blow the

According to the bcst statistics
available, 1t appears that the total

is approximately sS5,oo0,oo0 acres;
that only 100000, 600 Of this is included

is unimrroved lands included in farms
1t appears, rom reports made to the
secretary Of agriculture, that less than
4c per cent Of this land is yielding
maximum returns.
This country has practically reached
the stage where it has ceased to be an
exporting nation of food products and
is becoming dependent on foreign ma
tions for the necessaFies Of life. 1t is
a sad commentary on our use of the
opportunities bestowed upon us.
Recklessness and waste have been
incident to our breathless conquest of
a continent, and we have had our
minds too exclusively directed to the
esta blishment of industrial supremacy
in the race for competition with for
eign nations.
The hour has struck when. unless
greater attention is paid to agricul-
ture, this country will suffer an ire
trievable loss. Almost in moment of
time, with little warning the world
powers have been plunged into a dis
astrous conflict the effects of which

the cost of feed, md there is not a
sufficient surplus of that in this coun-

It's Grandmother's Recipe to Keep

The old time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grand mothers treatment, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sen sible, as we are livng in an age when youthful appearance is of the great est advantage.
 Nowadays, though we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the Sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready to-use product called 'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" for about 50 cents a bottle. It is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking what delights the ladies with Wyeths Sage and Sulphur is that besides beautifully darkening the hair after few applications, it also produces that soft lustre attractive; besides, prevents dandruff. itching scalp and falling -(Advertisement.)

DREW'S PARK |S IN
 FINE CONDITION
Trees Well Trimmed and Splendid Stand of Grass Carpets Entire Tract Where
 Celebration Win be Held

The important feature in connection with the forthcoming local Fourth or July celebration, is that the greater number of the events are to be held at Drews Park, immediately north Of the city limits Another feature is that no admission fee is to be charged. A mem Der of one of the committees went out over the park yesterday for the pur- pose of determining if there was need of preliminaries before the celebration and he reports that everything is in first class condition. The trees were well trimmed this spring and the litter has all been cleared from the ground. A splendid stand of grass covers the en- tire tract making it one of the most beautiful spots in the entire valley. The dense shade of the umbrella and pep per trees which have been trimmed high allowing the breeze to blow under meath, make it one of the coolest plac- es throughout this section and even though the thermometer be soaring on July Fourth.
 In addition to the ideal spot selected for holding the events the program is one of merit involving as it does a ] number of Indian games and contests 1 that is bound to be of interest to ev- 1 eryone. This class of sports will not be undertaken at any place else in the | valley. Another feature of the day will be the parade which will take
 place along the principal streets of the | town and end at the park.
 The Mesa City band will commence playing at sunrise and continue throughout the day The business
 houses are already preparing floats to advertise their business which will be a feature of the parade. Plenty of
 iced water will be on the grounds and
 every one is urged to bring baskets lfilled with food to the park and take part in the picnic lunch to be held al
 noon. The afternoon features at the local baseball park will include a game
 of baseball between Mesa and Tempe

PREPARING FOR ENcAMPMENT

Instead of preparing to be mustered out Company D, the local National Guard company is preparing to recruit to war strength and make the encamp- ment on August 3, one of the red let ter days in the history of the local company. A few days ago a war order was issued to the effect that the Ari- Zona companies would be mustered out unless they recruited to war strength
 War strength includes fifty eight men and two officers or in other words the
 local company is short just ten men
 having a present enlistment of AS men
 and the required number of officers
 However, it will require but 3S men
 and two officers to go to the encamp-
 ment at Garden Canyon in the south
 ern part of the state. Captain Noble is
 anxious that no time be lost in recruit
 ing the company so that the encamp- ment will be attended with full com- plement of men. The date will fall at that time of year after the summer crops, such as cantaloupes, having and threshing will be over with and the enlisted men who live on farms will be able to get away for ten days Gar den Canyon is one of the most beauti- full places in the state where numer- ous springs of cold water furnish an abundance of water for drinking and bathing purposes and where much wild cherries and other fruit can be picked The camping ground is ideal and the | outing is one that is always extolled by those who have once been there.

RURAL SCHOOL PEOPLE
 WANT A NEW BUILDING
Trustees Have Called Election for Next Monday to Vote $2,900
 Worth of Bonds.

The board of trustees of school dis trict No. 13, that section of the coun- try commonly known as the rural a couple of miles, have called an election to be held on the sixth day of July to vote $2,S0000 worth of bonds to be used in the construction and furnishing of a new school house. Only those may vote at this election who have paid in their own names a county or state tax upon property situated within district No. IS other than poll, road or school taxes, during the preceding year and who are in all other respects quail fled school electors in and for that district.
 The present structure which has served fo: years as the school house for the students of District No. 13 possibly as long as any structure now standing and in use has, is badly delapidated. AS for that mat ter it has been for several years but until this winter when She ques- tion was settled that districts thir- teen and three would not be consoli- dated, the board of trustees did moi see it's way clear to make any eXten- sive improvements.
 Now the election is out for thu bonds, and if it passes, just al quickly as the bonds are sold, worl will be rushed on the new building It will in all probabilities be located on the present rural school premises situated mile east and two mile south of Tempe All appearance just now point to the fact that tn bond election will carry by goo majority.
