MANY IMPROVEMENTS
 IN OAKLAND TRACT
Will Have Many New Homes by Fall. Street Improvements Near Com
 Pletion-Lots Selling

Greene & Griffin are busy making
 their plans for the future developments
 of the big Oakland tract Several plans
 have been accepted for the homes
 they contemplate building and all are
 of the bungalow type. Five and six
 room houses are the size favored and
 as the restrictions exclude frame
 houses, the specifications call for brick
 stone and concrete. The white as
 bestos roofing will be extensively used
 and the latest features such as wood stone sinks, built-in beds and the many conveniences found in the up-to- date home, will be installed. Several sales
 of lots have been made to intending builders. Wenthrop B. Stivers, a wealthy Canadian will construct a large eight-rOom residence early in the fall. MT. Stivers is a recent arrival and in tends to engage in business in Phoenix.
 He is well impressed with local condi- tiOns and having recently completed a trip through the financial centers of the east where he is well known, states that all signs point to a remarkable revival of business throughout the country this fall and winter He chose Oakland on account of it's closeness to
 the capitol and it's big lots and splendid street Improvements. The firm has a 1 force of men at work grading the park i space between the cement walks and i the curb. The trees planted are grow 1 ing fine and in another year will make
 a fine appearance. Oakland's improve
 ments are almost finished and a good l idea may now be had of it's future ap- | pearance. The pergola entrances are neat and attractive. The land is level
 and the rapid growth of the trees indi- cates a sold that makes things grow and with the housebuilding movement soon to start. Oakland will be one ot i the beauty spots of Phoenix.

If you should observe some straggly diffident stalks or pale green sugar cane. thrusting them selves weakly through the fertile soil of the Salt River valley re- marked c. NJ. Culver of the sugar factory, the other day, do not put it down as failure of the cane.
 Where one stalk is now growing from three to thirteen will show be- fore long. If the cane were any thicker. it would not grow right, for the suckers would be overcrowded-
 It is a significant fact that the Arizona grown seed is fast outstrip- ping the imported I have observed fields of cane planted from our own last years seed with stalks nearly as thick as my wrist No imported stuff is yet much bigger than the thumb.
 The reason for this conditions is acclimatization. Our seed cane has had time to get used to the irrigated soil. so it grows better. Most of our imported seed comes from Louisiana, where tlIc SUI tpHStilutlItS ait fuitV different, and the water supply cer- tainly very much so.'
 Figures on the cane crop show that there are 1.200 acres now growing as fast as good weather and good soil will permit.

Experiences of a Proxy for a June Bride Among the Gentlemen of Phoenix Who Make a Business of Selling Houses
(By SALLY JACOBS)

I'm embroidering the ducklest little guest towels for one of our June brides. I've scalloped them, and now I'm doing the lovers knots and initials A bride needs so many, many linens and things, especially if she passes the easiest way and decides in favor of the bungalow, rather than the apartment.
 How jolly it must be to go from one house to another and then choose the one that you like best, l thought, which shows you, my dears, how one can learn in few hours.
 MT Real Estate Man knew I was not a buyer, but to this optimistic animal everyone may be a buyer some day, and he treated me ac- cOrdingly. He took me from house to house and how 1 longed to get away from all of it.. It's simply i'm possible to find exactly what one wants, and you get so awfully tired and discouraged

Early Summer Activity in Many Lines Is Shown in Record Of Transactions for Past Few

The early summer is usually a busy season in the real estate mar ket, and Fred w. Dibble of the [. $ Land Title and Legacy company says that this year is no exception to the rule. In the last three weeks he has sold a large amount of property, in cluding several acre tracts, as well as many residences and lots. Among the many sales made by MT.

 Oh, dear, I'm so very sorry for the poor tired little bride who will have to be told that a wood stone sink, very sanitary, my dears, costs SIP. How many boudoir caps SIP would buy,

 It is four years ago since MT Clements last visited Phoenix and as he expresses himself, "The changes have been marvellous. Phoenix having grown from a country town, to a city of metropolitan airs"

 MT. Clements has travelled all over America and lately sold ammunition to General Carranza the head of the present Mexican revolution. He has been close observer of both the growth of Arizona and California, and choosing between the two, has decid- ed that there are greater opportuni- ties in the Salt River Valley than or the coast.
 He will be allied with MT. Barnard in the handling of the Scottsdalt townsite. This will be pushed al full steam ahead and big sales are looked for in this new fruit center Mir. Clements says that never has ht seen such perfect conditions for the raising of fruit-especially citrus than those existing around Scotts dale"

 TO SIGN CON NTRACT
Formal Acceptance of Aims house Plans Expected at
 Meeting Today.

Charities commissioners and repre- sentatiyes of Skinner & Walker, arcti- tects for the new La.keyiew buildings are scheduled to meet this afternoon for the signing of the contract and tha formal acceptance of the plans. The delay feared as result of the com- nlissioners protest against payment of three per cent. of the arehitects fees with the acceptance has been avoided. The comm issioners, according to g. re- port from uperintendent Gorden of the department this morning, have learned that the payment of such a percentage upon the acceptance of plans is customary with architects of standing. This, accor6ing to him. has been the only hitch The questioning, he explains, was not in the line of oh- lection but rather of inquiry. Cons sultatiop with representatives of the architects cleared away the n1isunder- standing. An additional two per cent, making five in all, is understood to be payable upon the completion of tha building and is for the supervision of the work by the architects
 With this matter settled, it is in41-. mated that plans will be at once ba- gun to start work. Mayor Wilson's waiver will be obtained so that tha bids may be received direct by tha commissioners instead of going through the board of contract and supply
 At the next meeting of the connnis- sioners or possibly this afternoon re- ports are expected from Superintend- ent Gordon and Dr.. Macdonald super. intendent of Eakevdew, regardfng the result of their conference with experts on a1mshouse government and con-l struction in New York city.

IRISH LEADERS MEET KING TO
 SETTLE CRISIS Labor Party Deneunees sAlleg- ed Interference Of Throne
 With Home Rule. CONFERENCE ADJOURNs
 UNTIL TOMORROW Factions Hopeful For Peace-. able Settlement of Inl-
 portant Question.

London. July 21-GFeat crowds gath cred today outside Buckingham Palace to witness the arrival of the various party leaders who are to participate in the conference inaugurated by King George with view to bringing about a peaeeable settlement of the Irish home rule question.
 The Right Hon. James LoWtheF, speaker of the House of Commons, who was chosen to preside over the con- ference, was the first to put in an ap- pearance. He was quickly followed by the eight representatives of the various parties-LiberaI, Unionist, Na- t1enalist and UIsterite. All came in motor ears with the exception of the Marquis of LansdoWne. who walked.
 King George, with Baron Stanford ham. his private secretary, received the statesmen in the chamber where. the privy council always meets, and he shook hands cordially with all of them. Probably this was the first time that John B. Redmond and John Dillon, the Irish Nationalist leaders had exchanged greetings with their sovereign, as 1t had been the prae- tice of Nationalist members of parlia- ment to remain away from all func- lions where members of the House of Commons were likely to be brought into contact with royalty.
 \ The meeting of the Conservative and Liberal leaders on such an intimate footing was apparently friendly but could not have been cordial as Pre- nnier Asquith and Andrew BonaF Law have been barely on speaking terms since MT. Law practically accused the premier in the House Of Commons of lying about recent government plans to suppress Ulster vote hunters.
 Since personal feelings among politi- clans in the Ulster Kingdom never ran so high as at present, the atmespheF of the. gathering could not have been otherwise than extremely chilly and formal After a brief eonyeFsatien. King George withdrew from the Heet- ing at about noon, leaving the con ferees to their deliberatiens.
 The eonfeFees, after being in session for only about an hour and half, ad- 5eurned for the day but will meet again ternarrew.
 The ofHeia1 organ of tho labor par ty today, under the heading Puck ingham Palace Again. denounces the alleged interference of the throne and says:
 ssTha House af Commans and not some private room in a Kings palace is the proper place to debate and set tie political differences. '
 Several Liberal members of the House of Gemmena eppesed to the con ference today called a caucus of their sympathiKers which prabahIy will adopt resolutions of a. similar eK1arae- ter to those passed by the labor mem bers last night referring to the undue interference of the grown, which their labor members declare was calculated to defeat the purposes of the parlia- ment.
