M. & ?. BANKS
 PROSPERITY CLUB
 THRIFT PROMOTER

The Merchants X Planters bank is inaugurating a savings plan which, on account of it's novelty and practic- ability. is likely to literally inoeulatc the public with the savings habit.
 For sc:le time savings bankers have been preaching Get the Savings Habit" to the public in their various communities. And that, too, with more or less success, as the savings bank business seems to be generally thriving.
 The officers of the M X F. bank realized that the first S100 is always the hardest to save and experience has shown that the man who starts first hundred is well on the way to acquire the saving habit.
 The keynote to the plan is to make ii just as attractive and easy as pos sjble for the prospective depositor to form the saving habit by saving $l, s2 s., or $o week for 52 cOnsecu- tive weeks.
 The prosperity of individuals, as well as communities and nations rests upon the cornerstone of thrift and here, let it be understood that thrift does not mean stingincss or penny -squeezing' You don't have to be mean and ugly to be thrifty. A thrifty person is one who conserves part of his income--one who "earns little and spends little less" The Merchants X Planters bank named their savings club "The Pros perity Club" for the reason that each member who completes the 52 pay ments has taken 52 steps along the path to individual prosperity. The club will open for membership Monday morning and members mak- ing their initial deposit will be siver a special "Prosperity Club" pass book made to take care of 52 weekly i deposits. At the expiration of the 5l weeks the book is completed and tho amount--plus 4 per, cent interest compounded semi-annually-may b' either withdrawn in cash or trans | ferred to regular account. f-ys ,t

GERMAN CONCERN BUYS AND STORES
 COTTON IN TEXAS
P. Radford Thinks Germany Forsees Big Demand for
 Cotton at Wars End.

Fort Worth, Tex, oct. 23.-The &C., tivity of supposed agents of the Ger man and Aus rian gGvcrnm nts, who have been buying and storing TeXas cotton, is belicF Il 10 be explained by information coming from Berlin of the formation gf the German Cotton import company, the purps of which is to buy 1,ooo,0oo bales of cotton In the American market.
 Ii is stated that this company, with headquarters in Bermuda. is of fering t9 buy cotton at Bremen at 16 cents a pound, and that it has de- pGSited with the Am arican consulate at Berlin $l00,000.000 security, pro- vid d by four leading German banks, 10 insure the performation of it's contracts.
 II has only recently been learned that tn state if Texas last August turned down a contract for the deliv erry of 1,000000 .balss of cotton at Bremen at 12 cents a pound. It is believed that this offer was made by representatives of the same company.
 The contract was rejected because Governor Ferguson was unwilling to llldht tue Stdlt d )di y tO uhy uSlCG7 m nj to deliver cotton at a foreign port at a time when it might have resulted in an embarrassing situation for the United States.
 Peter Radford, ono of the managers of the state warfh house and marketing department, commented that Ger many buy cotton and store it until the close of the war He believes that Germany, as well as other nations, has foreseen that there will be an enormous demand for cotton at the close of the war. The first offers of | the Cotten Import company were 1 around 12 cents a pound. The bids soon went to 15 cents, and the latest advices say 16 cents will be paid es l Bremen.
 Texas also rejected an offer from Sweden for 50,000 bales of cotton at 12, cents. last. August Japanese buyers also are active, and it is ex- pected that their exports will be the ! heaviest in many years. 1fs Is4f

President Wilson Approves Plan to Bring About Far
 Reaching Reform.
PORK BARREL POLICY
 NOW SEEMS DOOMED
With Sherley of Kentucky, Most Ard ent Advocate of Budget System, Chairman of Committee on ApprO.
 priation, "Melon Cutting' to End.
lRy Jonathan Wintield.l

Washington, Oct. 30.-The budget system" will be introduced informally at the next session of congress. Dem- ocratic leaders have determined upon the plan, with the approval of Presi- dent Wilson, who tacitly, if not off cially, has given his approval to this far-reaching reform in the. nations finances, ~
 |e Representative Swager Sherley of Kentucky, is the most ardent advo- | cate of budget system in congress; 1; and he, in all probability, will be the Fnext chairman of the house appropri- |ations committee. His power in this Fplace is conceded by his confreres, land they accept the renewal of his [campaign in favor of a budget model Fed on the English parliamentary sys- Item as certain to favor his accession l to the chairman ship. While it is doubtful that any Legislative steps Towards the establishment of budget ! will be taken at this session of con- gress. it is certain that an experi- mental effort will be made to put it into practice.
 The essence of budget plan is the
 proportional distribution of national
 finances, based upon total of ex-
 penditures announced in advance. The
 system heretofore has heen a hap
 hazard and happy-go-lucky authoriza- |tioh of appropriations by separate
 committees without any central plan.

w''h Tar more lberalitv than tbose
 'ia' come toward the close of the congressional session. It is only when congress realizes that slashes are im- peidtiVe to keep the total of appro- pflatons within bounds that thev are made. Each committee on the var lons branches of the government hghts hard for it's own "slice" of the natlonal "melon.' The result is that the task of giving proportion and symmetry to the various appropria- ton bills is placed upon the should CTS of the appropriations committee: task which, in view of the fact that II has no clean-cut and well digested plan in advance, it frequently is un- aDle to discharge properly.
 Representative Sherley proposes to make an address in congress in which he will state definitely the maximum of expenditures the national treasury will stand, and the percentage of the total which he plans to allow the various bills, including that for the army and navy, the postoffice depart ment, rivers and harbors, public buildings, etc. A debate will be pro- jected upon congress as to appropria- tions without delay, and the country will be able to grasp and to visualize the issue placed before it, without any of the confusing and misleading de- tails which often obscure the consid- eration of the individual appropria- tion measures.

 Manufacturing.
 Copper smelling and refining com. prises 80q5 of the value of the manu- facturing business in the State Of Ari- zona. While there are 300 other man. ufscturing establishments the copper industry supplies the sliews for four hiths of the value, and in out seven plants. The lack of fuel for power has been the principal handicap in tue growth of the manufacturing industry, and although not preventing or handi- capping the copper smeung, it has delayed the other possibilities.
 Mining.
 The mining industry of Arizona is that about which all the othef indus tries are grouped. and upon which their existence depends Governor Fremont nearly forty years ago stated that There are wood, grass and farm. ing lands, but these do not invite set clement nor attract labor Mining is the foremost idea in the minds of the people; all else is subsidiary and sub ordinate, and dependent upon it." His tory has verified this statement and although the resources of Arizona arc not measured alone by its mines and minerals, it has been upon these that the whole industrial development has been based and intorwoven.
 The production of copper has been steady since 1875 but the growth has been most rapid in the past few years, and the State now produces more than any state in the United States and more than any country in the world. .n gold, it ranks sixth, and in silver, seventh
 As yet little has been done in the de- velopment of the noa-metallics of the state, although there was an increase of $40 GOO in 1913 over the production of SG5,0OO in 1912. With the immense undeycloped resources, both metallic and non-metallic, it is evident that un- due attention to the fostering and stimulation by the government of .rAANNiNA AA Nr HlNtlNN N.-A lNIteNENt 10 the neglect of the mining, will not, in he long run, bring the highest sue l cess.
