SEVERAL TOWNS
LISTED IN SAME
TELEPHONE BOOK
NAMES OF SUBSCRIBERS IN DIFF.
FERENT PLACES ARE IN ONE
ALPHABETICAL LIST.
PLAN Is ADOPTED FOR
CONVENIENCE OF USERS
Combined Directory Is Big Improve
ment Over Former Issues
Valuable for Reference.

With the growing use of the tele-
phone and the increasing intercom
muuicatiOn between cities and towns
In the same locality, a new type OF
telephone directory is coming into
general use, which is big improve
ment over former directories.
Under the new plan subscribers III
several different places are listed in
one book, in the same alphabetical
list. One directory contains the names
of subscribers in from six to twelve
different towns. During the last year
or so the volume OF telephone inter
communication between towns and
cities in the same locality has steadily
increased. AS a result of this growth
in the number of calls from one town
to another, a demand has arisen for
a telephone directory of general ap-
plication, in other words, a reference
as we'll as in another. The matter
was given considerable study by Off
Gals of the Telephone Company. who
finally decided on the combined Ii
rectory.
Book Used in Big Cities.
This type of book has been used in
Chicago, New York and other metro
pOlitan centers for some time past
and has given the utmost satiSfac-
ton. The telephone officials believe
that there is no reason why the same
plan should not work out just as we'll
in the smaller cities and towns, and
this belief has been justified where
the plan has been tried.
The new type Of directory greatly
simplifes the task of calling from one
town to another. When subscriber
in one town desires to call a sub
scriber in another town, by referring
to the directory he can ascertain the
number of the party in the other
town as quickly as he can find tn"
number of telephone subscriber in
his own town. This convenience to
the subScl iber is not afforded where
each town has a separate directory
The new plan saves the subscriber
much time and trouble in making a
call to distant neighboring town.
In every respect the new book is a
big improvement over the old type
of directory.

UNSEEN ARTILLERY

The introduction in the last few years
of lang range, accurate, quick firing
guns has greatly affected the manner
of serving artillery. In the early part
of the Manchurian war, the Russian
artillery, taking positions in the open
in the old way, suffered great losses
from the fire of concealed Japanese
artillery The results of this war. con-
firmed, it seems, by those of the recent
Balkan war, have been to couse mill
tary men generally to regard the con-
cealed or masked position as the nor
nal one for artillery. This means that
the guns are hidden by a crest or By
trees, or standing crops while the cap
tain, placed so that he can overlook
the field of action, gives the data for
aiming the guns so that their fire will
reach the desired target. Hence the
cannoneers have only the mechanical
duties of setting fuses, leading, aiming
and firing the gun according to the
captains commands: and, with the
equipment now provided, it is possible

for the captain to direct the fire of his
guns quickly and accurately on almost
any target in range and vision. He can
shift the fire from right to left, by
minor changes in the angle as used by
the different guns, he can cause their
fire to be converted or distributed as
he sees fit A skillful captain with a
well trained battery has the fire almost
as readily under his control as has a
fireman of the stream of water from
his hose. The communication between
a captain and his gunners is the weak
link; for the captain may have to sep
arate himself considerably from the
guns in order to see the target, and
then has to rely on telephones, signals
or chain of orderlies to transmit his
commands. OF course it is not to be
presumed that the guns should always
be placed under cover. If the condi-
tons require it they may be placed in
the open.-Worlds Work

WHAT CAN Be DONE IN
OLIVE RAISING HERE

An ocular demonstration of what
can be done in olive culture is hang
ing in the window of the Arizona In
vestment and Securities company in
the Adams Hotel Building. Olives
are there shown-actual fruit-as big
as egg plums, fully ripe and most
tempting to look at. They were
grown under the supervision of Mum
ger Brothers on Security Acres.
OF course all the olives are not of
the great Queen variety: thousands
of smaller specimens of the fruit on
the branches. are clustered around
the big fellows. But it is the big
fellows that attract most of the at
-tention. No such olives have been
seen here either in the raw or pre-
served state. Fruit of this sort
brings a splendid price on the mar
ket, as big proportionately as the
price paid for the great Arizona or
anges and grape fruit. with which so
many of the windows of the city are
now decorated.
