SAVING BABE
SAVES FAMILY

San Francisco, Sept. 1.-'Wherever
the life of the Infant is safeguarded
the standard of life of the whole fam
lily Is lifted said Miss Julia Lathrop.
chief Of the federal chfldren's bureau,
in speechsin this city.
In all our Investigations we find
the infant mortality varying with the
income Of the parents and with the
location and the type of homes.H con-
tinued Miss Lathrop.
1.-THE deaths Of children among
poor families in Johnstown, Pa, are
five times as great as among the well.
TODD in Montclair, N. j., where people
have comfortable and easy incomes
and the families are Americanized and
educated.
In the tenement quarter Of the
same town the death rate of babies
is double that in the best quarter Of
the town.
'iBut the cheerful part of it is that
every community has the power to
alter these factors, not only to pro-
vide education for the children, but
free education for adults, good water
supply, good homes and good wages.
"We are learning that the question
of infant mortality is one that must
be met by money expenditure. We
must see that the working man re-
ceives enough wages to become self.
supporting, to assure himsA,lf and his
family decent living.
There should not be a condition
where mothers have to work in fac
tories. If the child can get along with
out it's mother, then we might just
as well not have mothers at all.
+ If the need of older children for
mothers is so great as to create the
provision for them by mothers pen
sion in more than twenty states, then
We need not argue that young and
helpless baby needs mothers care"

PHYSICAL TEST

i San Francisco, Sept. 1.-The Labor
Clarion calls attention to what it
terms. IAN epidemic among employers

Under present conditions those

wages and long hours to live in the
midst of insanitary surroundings can
not hope to be broad-chested and rosy

Qlurements of such employers and

With these examinations, as a rule
also goes an age limit, fixed at from
80 to 10 years, barring men, even
though healthy, from the right to
work If they have>passed the speci-
fed maximum.
Neither the employer nor society
has the moral right to insist upon
such qualifications until some system

strous, yet such a rule is not one jot
more vicious than is the one which
shelves the worker because he has
some slight physical defect, which
may not in the slightest degree de-
crease his efficiency.
The apprehensions of the workers
concerning the dangers that Turk in
these systems are not based upon the
DRY or deduction. They are the result
of actual experience and cannot, there

ployers as devoid Of merit.
Wherever one finds an employer
insisting upon these things as a re-
quisite to- employment it is almost
certain an examination of his record
as an employer will reveal him in
the capacity of slave driver with no
interest whatever in humanity. This
is the rule, and the exceptions are
rare, indeed"

BIG RANCH DEAL CLOSED
 IN YAvAPA| COUNTY
Correspondent

F. A. Reid, of Seligman, who ar rived Sunday, reported the closing. of the biggest deals for range steers ever known in that section for a given pe- riod, and which would reach to at least 6,000 head, with six sellers dis posing of the number.
 The country as far as Anvil Rock has been culled by representatives of coast firms, and delivery is to begin at once. Less than one week was taken up in closing this transaction and the sum of money disbursed will reach to quarter of million dollars.
 Price for certain grades of steers ran to as high as $35 for yearlings which had never before been offered. Mr. Reid states that one of the strong conditions of the stock, due to the favorable winter and the good graz ing that has prevailed. Other deals are pending, and it is expected that before summer arrives, fully 10000 head will be culled from Northern lavapai ranges alone.-Journal Mi ner.

FRUIT CROP OF
 APACHE DESTROYED

St. Johns.-When Apache county people awoke last Saturday morning some of them discovered that they still had something left to lose and more hard luck was in store for them To be brief, and not too complaining, there will be no fruit this year. Jack Frost got it all. The trees were load ed with blossoms and the prospects never were better for a good yield of all varieties. The fruit was caught in just the right stage of development to ruin it completely. Friday, Saturday and Sunday the cold snap hung on with rain, hail and snow at intervals.
 This piece of hard luck was shared alike by our neighbors throughout the ndfth. The freeze was general and everywhere it played havoc with fruit and early garden truck.

Population Increasing
 We May Pull Through

Based on the school census of 1914, Arizona's population is in excess of 275,OOO, according to figures recently compiled.
 The census of 1910 gave the total population of the state as 204, ,354, and the school census for the same year returned 39,611 children, making the ratio of the population to the school census approximately 5.1S. Taking this multiple and multiplying 53,845, the school census figures for 1914 gives 27S,017 as the population of the state. The estimated population of the state, as based on the United States census, and given in the new state blue book, is given as 247,297.
