COTTON MEETING

For the purpose of discussing means and measures for working out practical plan to dispose of the Salt River valley cotton crop for the coming season. meeting will be held at Tempe on Friday afternoon of this week at o'clock, attended by representative from the cotton exchanges and trade organ nations from Chandler. Mesa. Tenn De. Phoenix and Glendale.
 In all probability the plan advo- cated by NJ. T. Swingle, who is with the department of agriculture and in charge of the sales department, to the effect that a salesman be em- ployed. will be given consideration. The idea suggested by MT. Swingle was that some one familiar with conditions be elected to make the trip to Liverpool and work up a foreign market This would insure a
 market extensive enough to take care of the entire crop without diff ! ficulty. It would incidentally be the
 means of advertising the valley sta ; pie much better locally.

CAUSE AND EFFECT
Good Digestion Follows Right Food

Indigestion and the attendant dis comforts of mind and body are cer- tain to follow continued use of i'm proper food
 Those who are still young and TO- bust are likely to overlook the fact that as dropping water will wear a stone away at last, so will the use of heavy, greasy, rich food, finally cause loss of appetite and indigestion.
 Fortunately many are thoughtful enough to study themselves and note the principle of cause and effect in their daily food. A. N Y. young woman writes her experience thus
 Sometime ago I had a lot of trou- ble from indigestion, caused by too rich food. I got so I was unable to digest scarcely anything, and medi- cines seemed useiess.

TRUCKS HELP BUILD
 UP THE GREAT WEST
Packard Commercial Vehicle Tried Out On Long Mountain Trails
 In Sierras

The motor truck has taken upon
 itself the building of the modern west. It's speciality seems to be an aid in the accomplishment of the great engineering feats which have
 to do with the harnessing or con veying of water.
 Packard motor trucks were called
 into action on the Great Western Power Company's dam at Big Mea- dows in the very heart of the Sier- ras of California. A haul of fifty two miles where there were continu-
 ous grades of and per cent for ten miles at time, and grades of r to Is per cent at other points did not deter the trucks. The freight
 was steel girders weighing 1900 to 10000 lbs, and generally weighted to the truck by heavy bags of cement. In the shadows of Mts Hood and Adams in the Cascade range Pack
 ards have engaged in another huge undertaking The Northwestern Elec- tric Company of Portland, Oregon, i had to harness it's power from the White Salmon river in Washington,
 100 miles away. They called on the
 motor truck to help build the big
 power plant and then specially equip
 ped this game truck to set more than 4000 poles over which the elec- | tric current was brought into Port
 land.
 In the mountains it carried lengths of pipe so long that it took l5OO 1 pounds of cement on the front half l of the trucks platform to keep it from tipping over on the 10 to 15
 per cent grades

 where formerly only mules could be
 used
