A GOOD PROPOSITION

lhe southern lliGh""'
has outlined plan for the adoption"
of the route frcm Lordsburg, n NJ .
through San Simon. Bowie, to Solo,
monviIle, Stafford and down the "li"
valley to GIoLr and thence to Phoe-
nix. This route to te designated
as the official route Of the aSSocl"-
ton, instead Of the BorderJanh
route.
San Simon and Bowie have agreed
to support the proposition and Will
work in conjunction with the GiI"
valley to bring the great automobile
traffic from the East to the coast
this year ly this route.
The San Antorio, Texas, Chamh, +
of Commerce will send a moving
picture outlil over the route when
will take pictures Of the scenes along
this road for publicity purposes. It
is uroposed that each town support
the proposition and subscribe for /"
part of the reels.
Here is a fine opportunity FOR lhe
GiIa valley to get on the map and
in the absence of a chamber Of com
mercp. which naturally would take
care Of tbs matter, Stafford and the
different towns of the valley could
take up the proposition ana shane
the expense of making the reels mat
will be used to %dtcrtisr this route.
Every town in the valley should
get busy at once and call a citizens
meeting for the purpose of getting
action on the plan Of tn" Sou'herh
HIGHWAY Association to make the
route through from Demug to
Phoenix. by way Of Bowie and the
G Ia valley.
The merchants of this town should
wake from their lothargy and be
alive to the situation, An orE"n2a-
ton should be formed at once to
take care of his matter, which
means thousands Of dollars to the
valley this year.

TIME TO CUT ALFALFA

1t IS very easy, III giving auYlcr,
to see only one or two things and
not see how the advice might lun
counter to some other impol tant
things. For instance, we notice in
some of our EXCHANGES the advice of
letting alfalfa that is intended for
hay for horses stand Til it is well
along in bloom. Now that may do
very well for the physiology Of the
horse, but not so well for the physj-
oiogy Of the alfalfa plant
II you are to preserve the alfalfa
in good Vigor, you must cut it just
as the shoots for the second crop
are starting from the crown. The
reason for this il that at that time
the mower will not clip the heads
off the coming growth. If they are
clipped they often make but a poor,
sickIy growth. There is always
great danger Of injury in cutting
alfalfa too Rtr, for the neXt growth
has gotten such start thar it is
badly clipped. There is a right time
to cut alfalfa to avoid the damage Of
cutting too early before the :hoo)s
Of the next crop have formed and
cutting TOO late after they are well
along in growth.
We must handle our alfalfa wisely
in order to maintain a good stand,
as blue grass and other enemies Will
be all we need to contend against
H0ard's Dairyman.

WHAT IT MEANS

We hear Il great deal these DAYS
from the learned cXpou"drrs OF tn"
law about the meaning and intent
of the prohibition amendment. W"
are told that druggists and grocery
stores cannot sell tlavoring extracts,
perfumes, patent medicines. etc.,
which contain alcohol as solvent
or as prysrrrative.
These dehurrs Of constitutional
law will tell YOU that the prohibit
tion amendment states specifically
that the words Ardent Spirits in
the amendment means that all tn"
above named articles cannot hr Soto;
that everybody must give up the
use of perfumes; that housewives
cannot use fayoring extracts in
their cooking, and that people must
stop using proprietary medicines to
cure their Ills.
Whenever YOU are in doubt about
the meaning Of word, take our
advice and consult W"bstrr's New
international Dictionary. The hnoNI
edge Won will gain from IFS pages
will enable you to discuss intrli
gently matters Of this kind.
According to Wrhstrr's Diction
ary, the following definition is given
for Ardent Spirit,::'
ARDENT SPIRITS, strong, aicoho
lie liquors, as brandy, rum, whjskrY,
etc. obtained by distiIlation; spirit
uous liquors"
There is nothing in the dictionary
that shows "Ardent Spirits" to he
favoring extracts, perfumes, patent
medicines, etc What the prohib,-
ton amendment means is that Ar
dent Spirits, such as whiskry, wines,
rum, brandy, aie, beer, shall not be
manufactured in or introduced into
the State If Arizona under any pre-
tense"
The prohibition amendment means
that all alcoholic beverages must
cease to be manufactured in this
State, also that the Introduction Of
alcoholic beverages into the State
is prohibited.
If you are in the habit Of using
perfumes, havming extracts and
patent medicines as a beverage, the
best definition for your case Is Tn"
State Insane Asylum. no prohibl-
ton amendment can help you.

NATIONAL PROHIBITION

The brewers and booze boosters
should enjoy their congressional
triumph while they may, although it
Sn't 50 great as to warrant growing.
\ majority in congress favored the
measure at the first time it was ever
Dut to "A vote in that body, and at Il
time when no congressman was
chosen on that issue. Not 50 bad
,or the hrsr effort. And only a blind
,rrwer can Goubt that other attempts
will fo low, and that congrcSSmCn
Nho fought the measure will find a
fir under them, when the election
comes up two years hence. New
congressman will take the place Of
some of them, who will be elected
t. make this national hd their
principal business. To doubt that
TINS will happen is to question the
growing sentiment against liquor.
Some men, and some Of them con-
grr-Smcn, honestly question whether
prohibition is an effective temper
anre measure. but those men are
not rrId,uts Of prohibjlion COM
muniucs And prohibition has no
stronger argument in it's favor than
that it can always rely upon the
active opposition Of the liquor in
trlrS'S. No one attempts to make
much OF dcfrrsr Of those interests
Ihry represent large industry, but
SO does war. and tine industries are
similar, both being destructive, and
with little excuse for being. A
majority Of people, no doubt, would
ike to srr both ended, or greatly
restricted, the difference in opinion
being mainly as to the best mrths 4
to accomplish this end.
National prohibition has in its
favor thnt it would be more SIM lie
Of enforcement, and leave open few
cr easy roads for evasion Of the law.
A state law should hc as rfr, crive
as a narlona. IaA, but it isn't, and
that is another reason there viii be
an increasing demand for the naII II
to tackle the ptoh,rm. The demand
will Increase also because constantly
more people are being educated to
that point Of view. One by one the
big indu~rrlr, mr barring the men
who make bars their areciaIty, and
that SORT Of thing will be- reflected
in the laws Of the country. More
states are going dry, and that will
be an influence. The drys are de-
Iayrt, hut they are &ut discouraged.

OUR OLDEST MISSIONS

The oldest Of our m:S-iorary
societies, the Society for the PropH
cation Of the Gospel" says Dr
WardIaw Thompson, was iuuLu,U
in l7Ol during a period in which We
were at war with France, and whrh
a French invasion was seriously
threatened. The twenty-five years
from l79O-lSI5, which covered he
immense revolutionary ana kapoI
comic struggle, were the years IN
which most of our great Protp; t&nt
missionary societies were I, uUdrG.
The Baptist Missionary society was
fopnded in 1902; tie London MIS-
aionary society in l795, the FdIn-
burgh and Glasgow Missionary 80
cietieS in l799; the Religious Tract
sucity In 1888; and the British and
Foreign Bible society in 1904; anG
there was a great and growing &C
tivity in foreign missionary se!Vjcr
amongst the Wesleyan MrlhcGisls,
under the leadership Of Dr c kc,
issuing in the formation If TIE
Wesleyan Methodist Missionary So
ciety in 1873.
DR.. Thompson shows that a, the
close Of the last three English was

the country can, if it will, face, the
