 After a height is reached at which the difference will not be obvious, the less handsome but cheaper and equally durable Rockport granite is substituted. The clock dial, 21 feet C inches in diameter, and brilliantly illuminated at night, will be set in expansive panels of Vermont marble. At night this disk of light, glowing from it's extreme height, will be vis- ible for miles around, and vessels far out to sea will take it's eastern lace as a beacon in the night, while in the daytime the slender length of the tower itself, rising sharply above the city's normal skyline, will make .an unmistakable long distance land mark.

REAL ESTATE

by the completion of the famous Roosevelt dam.
 The staple Arizona cotton is known as Sacaton because it was introduced into this valley through the Pima h. dian school at Sacaton under the direc- ton of the department of the interior on the advice of the agricultural de- partment. This was eight years ago. At first only about 250 pounds of lint to the acre was produced. Last year this same ground produced 700 pounds. It sold from 20 to 25 cents per pound. Some of the staple is four inches long one and one sixteenth inches is a long staple of the ordinary cotton anywhere in the southern states.
 Recently individual farmers have produced from 442 to S66 pounds of lint cotton per acre. A standard bale in the southern states is 500 pounds And in those states there is much up land that does not average a yield oi more thana quarter of a bale per acre

not be ready for occupancy by the customs department till January 1, 1915. The structure is a veritable monument in proportions. It is 6 by 75 feet square and rises 494 feet and inches above the street level.
 Although of massive, steel skeleton construction, closed in with a solid granite shell, thus piling up a tre- mendous weight under it's extreme height, this obelisk building has not developed the slightest settling or sagging imperfection in any part, and does not deviate by a hairs breadth from a perfect perpendicular throughout it's sheer, outstanding ele- vation. This absolute solidarity re- suits from the scientific care and engineering skill with which the foundations were sunk, the great weight-strain being thus rigidly sup ported by six colossal concrete piers, reinforced with 20-inch steel I beams, extending down 100 feet below the street level and resting upon large

living room with hardwood floors built in bookcases and writing desks to add to the attractiveness, while the dining room, bathroom, kitchen and the num- erous closets with the cleverly planned sleeping porch make the home idea in
 each of great compelling effect. The building is constructed of steel
 and concrete-modernly fire proof, very quiet, warmer in winter and cooler in summer than the average brick or frame structure. Another up to date feature is the Tn a-door" bed, which is of full size, but so hung and pivoted to the inside of the door frame of one of the large closets as to be easily manipulated and capable of being tucked away A combination buffet and china closet in the dining room. There is a sink, large cupboards, metal lined bins and built-in ice box in the kitchen. Every apartment is heated with the
 new Rector Gas heating system similar to that in use in the Womn's club building. There is hot water heater | and a modern gas appliance in the | bathroom.
 | The roof garden is something that will be joy forever to the tenants of I the apartment for it offers a quiet and | cool retreat for those seeking good 1 sleeping quarters in summer The
 concrete roof is partially covered with
 slat floor and can be wet down when
 ever desirable without trouble or in
 convenience. Placed upon solid gas pipe frames the canopies. two large i canvas affairs, green in color give pro | lection from the sun. number ot
 comfortable chairs and settees have been provided and small palms and
 evergreen shrubs add to the beauty of | the garden.
 There is an admirable thoroughness
 in the equipment of these new apart
 ments. W. c. Tucker was the genera contractor and Lescher and Kibbey the
 architects. The price of construction
 was $14,500.

while the very best yields are not more than two bales. Profits Greater Than in Egypt

while the very best yields are not more 1 than two bales.
 Profits Greater Than in Egypt
 The culture of the Sacaton here is !, merely in it's infancy. In the spring of 1912 the farmers of this valley planted this crop for the first time about $50 acres in all The results were such that this spring over 5000 acres haer been planted. The profits are greater than from cotton planted in Egypt, where the land sells from $500 to $1,000 per acre. One would not have to be endowed with the gift of prescience to forecast the future value of the Salt River valley land in Arizona after the irrigation processes have been perfect ed.
 Egyptian cotton grown in the Salt River valley will doubtless be graded more closely every succeeding year Strict grading is to the benefit of the | producer
 This valley is now full of cotton growers associations, the object of which is to secure the installation of the necessary ginning machinery, the l selection of the proper seed. and, above all the finding of the best markets.
 There has been constant fight be- | tween the growers of Sacaton and a few southern farmers who insist on planting the ordinary southern short 1 staple seed, simply because they are used to the common kinds; yet the short staple blossom forms a hybred 1 with the long staple that ruins the pure Sacaton stock throughout the en- tire valley. Regulations, usages and public opinion which makes both, will soon put the short staple crank out of business where he belongs.
 Cotton, like corn, is open fertilized. and the pollen is readily carried from one plant to another by bees and other insects. Unless due precautions are taken the varieties soon mix and de- terioration is rapid That Sacaton is the most valuable kind of cotton now grown in the United States, is the opinion of the cotton experts of the United States agricultural department and Sacaton seed has been introduced extensively in Texas
 On the other hand. state ouaran tine has been declared against the i'm portation of any other kind of cotton CT cotton seed into the Salt River val ley. A state entomologist enforces the law. There is no such pest here as the boil Weevil. as he cannot survive in the hot sun without rain.
 The gross returns per acre from Sac aton is from $40 to s200 per acre un- der the most favorable conditions. The Phoenix boad of trade puts the cost O. farming operations, seed, picking ant ginning at $7S.40 per acre. and the cos
 of picking alone, at $5040 per acre
 Men of large means are beginning tt give close attention to the Sacaton in
 dustry.

ACTIVE DEMAND FOR
 SMALL ACRE TRACT
Lots and Homes Needed; Greene G Griffin Enjoy Good Mid
 summer Business

Sales the past week through the healthy increasing demand for all kinds of real estate A marked feature of the season is the active demand for small tracts of from one to five acres. Anything in real es- tate that may be chased as a bar gain finds many applicants and a quick sale results
 The large number of stay-at- homes has reduced the usual number of vacant houses to a minimum and it may safely be said that in pro
 portion to it's houses and population, Phoenix has less vacant houses than any other city in the country and less than at any other time in it's
 history.
 MT. Sanders purchased one of the recently finished brick bungalows in Bonnie View. This sale is the sixth made, leaving but one house left out of the seven finished a few weeks ago.
 In Meadowbrook, Amanda Wilkey purchased one of the acre tracts and will build next month. Meadow
 brook is one of the tracts the firm has had considerable success with, it's location making it extra desirable for the city worker.

 dent of Phoenix, has purchased a | lot in oakland and will build before 1 fall.
