be productive of much good In Ten
nessee, that is if the people will pay
any attention to it. The trouble with
Tennessee. this section, anyway, is
that there is too much gossip and too
little reading. Everyone, grown up or
not, should settle on a certain scheme
of reading for this winter. and follow
it assiduously, and then after reading
discuss the subjects with others in
stead of gossipping and reviewing
neighbours faults.

THURSDAY
State Engineer
 Issues Report

PHOENIX. Jan. 22-Lamar Cobb. state engineer, has submitted report recommending appropriations for road work for the coming year
 Some of the things he recomm ends follows:
 That the present appropriation os s25O. 900 with the provision for the ex- penditure of 75 per cent in the counties where raised and D per cent constitut- ing a general fund. be repealed; that an annual levy be provided and the fund derived therefrom be expended in the several counties of the state in pro- portion to their assessed valuation. pro vided, however, that each county shall have expended therein not less than Sl5.O00 The entire appropriation to be expended under the direction of the boards of supervisors and state engi- neer.
 In addition to the above levy. l would recommend an appropriation not to S50OO per month to cover the ex- pense of working prisoners on the state highways. Prisoners under guard can not be worked with economy unless they are employed Tn the same locality for from six to twelve months. there fore without this special appropriation it would not be practical to employ them in but two counties, Maricopa and Cochise. It is agreed that their eu- ployment upon the state highways is desirable, and as there is none other for them at the present time. this appropri- ation IS necessary unless the labor IS confined to the two counties named Counties with large mileage of roads to construct, such as Graham and Yuma, cannot hope TO complete their links in the proposed state highway system without such assistance as could be given through the employment of prison labor al state expense.
 Receipts from the motor vehicle tax law are covered into the state road fund. and in 1914 was s24. .320. In 1915 1t will probably be sS5,0O0 to s45.0c0.

Cattle lmportations
 On the Stun p

DOUGLAS, Jan. 2I-Since the first of the year there has been less business in the crossing of cattle from Mexico into the United States in this section than for many months past, and dur ing the past week not a single steer has been passed in the entire stretch from Fl Paso to Hereford Of course it is impossible to cross cattle along the New Mexico line, as that state some time since quarantined against the rest Of ,he world on account of the foot and mouth disease
 But this does not apply to the Ari- zona border The reason for the slump in the importation of cattle from Mex ico in this section, according to local cattlemen, is the unsettled conditio on the Mexican side of the line Naco is now a closed port and if cattle are brought out through Agua Prieta il entails double duty. as the Mayo rena government. which is in power south of the border town. demands a duty. and also the Carranza govern ment in Agua Prieta.
 Dr Harry Hart, governme mt inspec- tor for this district. has been having an easy time the past wee k It is under stood. however. that a large number of cattle will be crossed at Hereford duI- ing the next two weeks.
