A cabinet like the one shown in

many ways; for instance. in the nur-
sery it will form an excellent recep-
tacle for the children's toys, or in
bedroom, shoes, slippers and all kinds
of unsightly odds and ends can be
kept in it.

White and Black Stripes.

White and black stripes are used
in almost every fabric, but perhaps
no more attractively than in wolfe or
chiffon, mounted over foundation
of white taffeta Often the overdress
of stripes is edged with blue or black
velvet ribbon, which gives it a sta
bility and charm it would otherwise
lack.

A teacher in a rural school ir
Massachusetts was one day explain

parison of adjectives. To make
sure she was understood, she called
on each pupil in turn to give com

little fellow to name the compare

After thinking a moment he said

The answer puzzled the teacher,
because, although it was not the

could best show him his error by
letting him go on, and asked sweet

GYPSUM PLASTER

Of the many products derived
from gypsum, staff" is of particu-
lar interest as a material commonly
used in the construction of large
temporary buildings, notably those
at the Panama-Pacif Exposition at
San Francisco and the Panama Cali
fornia Exposition at San Diego, Cal.
The material used for the buildings
in San Francisco, however, differs
from that used in the buildings of
previous expositions in being cast
to initiate the famous Roman trav-
ertine. The state of Utah is proud
of the fact that all the gypsum for
the buildings in San Diego and at
least so per cent of that used at
San Francisco. according to esti-
mates of the exposition officials, is
reported to have been quarried near
Nephi, Utah.

THE FUTURE FARMER

According to Dean Galloway, of
the Cornell Agricultural College, in
tensive farming in America is going
to be something vastly different
from what il has been in other
countries, says the Star.
Always. abroad, the cultivation of
the soil has been compelled by den
sity of population and made posi-
BILE only through an abundant sup
ply of cheap labor. Admirable re.
suits have been obtained. But the
bountiful crops from small areas
have been made possible only by
the toll and sweat of the man, who,
while he is able to produce these re.
suits, must do so at the expense of
the mental and moral side of his
being. This is agricultural peas.
antry in its worst form.
In the United States we may
make the same efficient use of the
soil and produce the same bounti-
ful crops without reducing our
farming class to a state of peas
antry." This is possible through
our marvellous development of agri:
cultural machinery.
The farm of the future" sass
Dean Galloway, will go utilize mod.
ern labor-saving devices and efficient
methods to human labor will be re.
duced to a minimum, and the farm
er and his children will have time,
opportunity and means of living a
satisfactory, wholesome life.
We may look forward to a per-
manent husbandry, freed from the
blight of peasantry, standing square
ly for its place in the affairs of the
nation, but recognizing its relations
and its responsibilities to other in.

STORY OF A LONG NAME

A northern man who was visiting
in Baltimore stopped on the street
one day to have, his shoes polished.
A bright-eyed little black boy STEP
ped forward to give the desired
shine. Becoming interested in this
little chap, the northerner asked
his name, to which the boy promptly
replied:
Gen, sah."
After few moments of silence,
the northerner continued, Il sup
pose that is an abbreviation for
General?"
The word "abbreviation" gave
the little fellow pause; however, he
was equal to the occasion, and re-
covered himself. mo, sah." he

husbandry, he urges a system Of
education such as is already making
headway in some of the most en-
lightened farming communities of
the west" education that will teach
the meaning of things and their re-
lation to the present. rather than
the teaching of words and their re-
lation to the past He isn't par
ticularly concerned with the back
to the land" propaganda. He ism t
interested in making more farmers,
so much as in making better ones,
fitted by training to take every ad-
vantage of their opportunities.
For such training. in agricultural
communities, there is needed a sys
TEN of education fitted to the real
needs of the people. The school
must be community center. Inc
teacher must be community build
er. The old, aimIess, academic
ideals must go. Schools are not for
mere culture and aimless scholar
ship. The school must serve its
people, must represent their life
and needs and aspirations. 1t is
not enough to introduce agricul-
ture into the schools" The coun-
try schools must be full of agricul-
ture, must look at life from the
standpoint of an agriculturist, real,
izing that school days are rot prep
aration for life, but are life itself.
The pupils are little farmers at
work.
Such instruction, combined with
mechanical facilities enabling farm
ers to use all their natural resources,
ought to make the future farm life
in America incomparabIv more at
tractive than it has ever been.

BULLETIN NO. 3

Issued as Bulletin No. 3, Mineral
Technology Series No. /, by the
Arizona State Bureau of Mines. is a
pamphlet which will be of extreme
interest to those interested in min
ing in the State of Arizona. 1t is
entitled Directory of Arizona Min
erals" and lists all of the minerals
that are found within the State
that are of commercial value, giving
the county. district and in some
cases the mines in which they are
located.
Although it is inconceivable that
such list is absolutely complete.
the directory as issued will be a
valuable guide to those seeking
minerals or mines.
The directory is compiled from
the reports OF the United States
Geological Survey and various news
papers. periodicals and books pub
lished with reference to Arizona, as
well as the many communications
which are handled by the Bureau of
Mines.
This bulletin will be sent free to
those desiring the same upon appli-
cation to Charles F. Willis, Director,
Arizona State Bureau of Mines,
Tucson, Arizona, and will be avail
able for distribution about No

BACK SALARY CLAIMS

The recent decision of the State
Supreme Count in the case of d. d
Phillips. former assessor, who sued
the county for back salary in the
Superior Court, which rendered q
decision against Phillips, who then
carried the case on appeal to the
Supreme Court, which upheld his
claims and ordered the payment of
the amount due for back salary, has
brought about a rather hard prob
lem for the board of supervisors to
solve.
The decision of the Supreme
Court in favor of Phillips was rem
dered after the budget for 1915 had
been completed and since which
time the board of supervisors has
no authority to levy an amount to
pay the claims for back salaries.
As the matter now stands all
former county officials are entitled
to back salaries and the claims now
amount to several thousand dollars
and no money in the county treas.
ury to pay them.
The matter is worrisome and the
board of supervisors is of the
opinion that it will have to caH a
bond election to pay the claims for
back salaries of former county Of
ticials, as there was no chance for
the board to include these claims in
the budget for 1915.

Club Agent, Leland S. Parks, in the
spring of 1915.
This clubs work was put in
charge of the Young Ladies' Mutual
Improvement Association, with
Sarah Mortensen at its head. Soon,
twenty one members, ranging from
twelve to seventeen years of age,
were enrolled, with Ruth Moody as
president.
The girls went to work with a
determination to equal other clubs
in the State, and, though most of
the members had nothing but wash
boilers, washtubs, stove kettles, ETC.,
to use in their cold pack methods,
they report very few failures and
their work makes a most creditable
showing. They have met monthly

A PROCL AVIATION

Governor Hunt has issued the
following proclamation, appealing
to the people of Arizona for gener-
Gus cooperation IN relief of suffer-
ing families in the Clifton Morenci
mining district:
This is the season of harvests,
that especial time of the year when
toll is taken of Natures bounteous
usufruct; when industries are meas
ured in terms of their products;
when Labor takes accounting of
that which it produces, and when
prosperity is carefully gauged in its
relation to human endeavor. 1t is
well, if at this period of the year
when the day of thanksgiving ap-
proaches, they who have plenty may
freely celebrate their good fortune
with the comforting assurance that
the grim spectre of woful want is
not abroad anywhere in the land.
For the observance of feast days
when the hungry go unfed, the
houseless go unsheltered and the
sorrowing go uncontrolled must
SAVIOUR sharply of sacrilege, and
ever be tinctured with sadness.
In the CIifton-Morenci mining
district of Greenlee county, State of
Arizona, there exists deplorably a
condition whereby nearly five thou
sand workingmen are deprived of
employment, and where, conse-
quently, hundreds of families with
their slender savings exhausted are
entering upon the rigorous winter
season without any dependable sup
ply of the necessities of life. Words
cannot express or pictures portray
the extreme suffering that even now
is barring its cruel visage to the
worthy people of this stricken dis
trict.
Pursuant, therefore, to the plain
dictates of humanity, l, Geo. W. P.
Hunt. Governor of Arizona, do here
in proclaim the serious need of
food, fuel and clothing in the Cliff
ton-Morenci district, and do earn
estly appeal to the generous people
of this State for such contributions
of money and supplies as will allevi-
ate suffering and afford means of
simple sustenance for penniless fam
lilies in this time of industrial trou-
BILE. All civic and benevolent or
ganizations are especially urged to
organize and conduct movements
for the gathering and shipment of
supplies to the Workmen's Relief
Committee. Care of the Sheriff of |

tions unto those that are afflicted,

love may be exemplified in our citi-
zenship."

to talk over their successes and fail
ures and to gain new ideas from the
literature sent them by the Exten.
sion Service of the University.
The interest of the girls has
grown as they have worked and
some of the older members have
taken much of the responsibility of
the fruit canning in the home, and
in some cases they have been so
keen to continue the work that they
have taken up domestic science in
the Academy.
Mr.. Parks has made several visits
and has been patient and helpful to
the club On his last visit he ex
pressed much satisfaction in the
work done.
The girls are proud of the fact
that they have the largest canning
club in the State.

A FARCE-COMEDY

The farce-come dy now being played
liz this State, entitled: I'VE Want
His Scalp" has brought out some
peculiar talent in the william line.
Under the guise of democracy we
are witnessing the spectacle Of
so-called democratic leaders posing
as reformers and denouncing Gov
ernor Hunt because he refuses to
let their masters (the Big Interests)
administer the government of the
State their way (like they did when
Arizona was Territory.
What a farce it is to see Charley
Akers, the tool of the corporate in
terests, posing as better than
thou" and declaring that Governor
Hunt should be recalled because he
is real bad man.
Then before the footlights comes
Hon. (?) Stapley, who first tells of
his exploits in the State Senate and
how hard he tried to accomplish the
many good measures (?)" in the in
terest of the mining bosses and
other plutocrats, who do not be ieve
ia the government Of the people,
10y the people. With tears in his
eyes. he tells of the assassination"
If his hidden measures by the great
ogre, Governor Hunt.
And =
The most laughable event in the
farce-comedy comes into view, when
Angel Stapley orders his man Fri
day. H. F. Johnson, to get sigma
lures to the petition for Hunts re-
call. and it is most laughable, in
deed. when Friday reports to Angel
Stapley that out of the thousand or
more voters in the Salt River val
ley, he could only secure the sigma
lures of l43. all soreheads at that.
And ....
Then this particular scene ends
ingloriously.
And now
Comes the ballet dancers, the in-
terest-controlled press of the State,
who prance into view, with scarcely
any clothing (their real character), |
dancing in time to the whip of their
masters.
But
Who comes here
Caesar! AS | live. And such a
scattering of the valiant hordes,
eager for the blood of the man, and
cowardly as ours. Their true ma
lures revealed as they stink away
in the shadows. Coyotes! Yes, and
worse, these defamers of character
and honest men.
What a spectacle!

Governor Hunt certainly threw it
into Charley Akers the other day,
when he denounced him as the "ab-
ject tool of a few corporate in

what he is talking about.

FUNNY, ISN'T 1T?

Funny how things turn out some
times. The Mesa Commercial Club,
which Akers, Stapley and several
other heelers for the corporate in
terests who are after Governor
Hunts scalp. after adopting a reso-
luton denOuncing the governor, got
wise as to the real object for which
the club was organized, met again
and rescinded its action. They
walked right in, turned around and
walked right out again.
