 tentiary and fine of s25o He
 also issued a bench warrant for
 Russelrs apprehension. Earlier
 in the day his $500 bond had been
 declared forfeited.
 TOMBSTONE May 3- tspeciaD The decision in the two percent case which was expected to be ren- dered by Judge Lockwood today. was not forthcoming and will not be rem dered until Wednesday.

 PROSPERITY
THAT NEIGHBORLY FEELING

Have you ever paused to ponder over that neighborly feeling that creates a "neighborhood" out-sof a collection of homes that have been thrown together by chance?
 A stranger nay come to section of tcwn.s Before his coming he may have never known of the street OH which he decided ito live. That par ticular lend of town" may have been a closed book to him. But once he is ensconed in his home, interest be- gins to sharpen regarding his imme- diate environs. And before one can say Jack Robinson he is a booster for his neighborhood.
 If man paints his house in dis tant part of town from where you live it is not tenth as interesting t., you as if the man across the street or road paints his. And if man liv- ing several miles from you buWa a piano or talking machine 1t is not tenth as interesting to you as If the family next door acquires one or the other.
 This is the neighborly spirit. IL isn't necessarily signified by gossip. It merely is characterized by the in tense interest surrounding things near home.
 That neighborly spirit is some lining worth while. Living in an apartment house in a big city without knowing ths party across the hall may suit some folks. But it doesn't smack much of the zest of life.

 The cruel department of agricul-

 ing figures has, however, just prick l ed the small farm bubble. Exhaus- five investigation has led it to the | conclusion that under conditions
 ican farm, the opportunity for mak- ing satisfactory profit varies direct ly with the number of acres farmed." /" The fewer the acres, the higher the cost of cultivation and the smaller the gross income. Very small farms. furthermore, are difficult to rake successful anywhere, and i. is only the exceptional man who is equal to the task.
 Nor is intensive farming the profit making certainty it is represented to be. Prices for the products of in- tensive farming are found to fluc- tuNte greatly, making results very uncertain. The farmer distant from his markets will often find that when prices are low transportation charges wipe out his prospective profits. Even in the immediate vicinity of good markets, intensive farming Is uncertain.
