ST., 500, 900 in Farm Mistakes

1t is estimated that there are
at least $1,000 farmers in the
State of Arizona, states Prof.
S. F. Morse, superintendent, u.
of A. Agricultural Extension
Service and State Leader, U. S.
Department of Agriculture. 1t
is our observation that many of
these farmers, especially the
new settlers, are making every
year little mistakes in planting
the wrong kinds of crops at the
wrong time of year, in the
wrong way and using incorrect
methods of irrigation and cult
vation. These mistakes fire.
quently result in considerable
losses of time and money and
yet are very easily preventable.
In most instances the field men
of the Agricultural Extension
Service could have shown the
farmers how to have avoided
these errors. 1t is putting it at
a very conservative figure to say
that the losses caused by these
would figure up a total
of $100 per year per farmer. 1t
is thus seen that Arizona far
mers are losing no less than
81, 500, 600 per year in little un-
necessary mistakes which could
easily have been avoided.
1t is to be OF assistance to the
farmers in this way that the
College of Agriculture, Agricult-
ural Experiment Station and
the Agricultural Extension Ser
vice of the University of Ari-
zona are maintained. The mon
ey saved by the preventing of
these losses would pay for all
the appropriations contemplated
by the State of Arizona for the
next two years.

SEND POULTRY TO
STATE FAIR EXHIBIT

Phoenix, Ariz. The annual
display of Poultry at the Arizona
State Fair is the largest in the
southwest. There s nothing
that equals it between Dallas,
Texas. and Los Angeles, Cali
tornla, and not often is it that
these two cities hold anything
that overtops the Arizonasexhibit
very much. The quality of the
birds that are shown at this
poultry show equals anything in
the west, and it is not uncommon
to have birds on display that are
the only ones of their kind in the
country west o f the Rocky
Mountains.
There has been a great i'm
provement in the class of birds
that show at the Arizona State
Fair. A few years ago anything
that had feathers on, was con-
sidered a chicken for display
purposes, but now, owing to the
impetus that is the direct result
o t these upbuilding chicken
shows, the majority of people in
the state who keep chickens at
all, on the back yard or on the
ranch, keep we'll bred stock,
something that they can take
pride in as we'll as make a profit
from.
This year the poultry show
will be graced by five special
cups, silver trophies, which will
in a measure more than make up
for the slight loss in the prem
ium money. Birds O f nearly all
varieties standard and man-stan-
dard will be shown. The state
fair is the most valuable medium
of advertising poultry that the
raisers of Arizona have.k Fan
ciers from all over the four
states exhibit at this show. They
would not attempt this, were
not the prestige of winning at
the Arizona Poultry show worth
a great deal more to them in the
form of advertising than the ac-
tual return in money.
Not the least interesting part
of the exhibit this year will be
the display of turkeys, ducks
and geese. This department al
ways attracts large crowd be-
cause there is always a demand
for good birds. Special enclos-
ures are made for these as we'll
as pheasants and pea fowls. Su-
perintendent Powers of this de-
partment is hard at work and
expects to have fine show.

How Do You Account For e?

n another editorial, [ am showing you that
Roman Catholicism IS gaining in those
Southern States aohere Foreign Missions
CROW
The States are named by Rev. Dr. William
I'll. Smith. President of the Foreign Missions
Board of the Southern Baptist Association.
In those States which he puts on his list,
foreign immigration does not play any con-
siderable part.
His list includes the States which hold the
AnglO-SaXOn element in it's greatest purity.
DIR. Smiths list shows the astounding fact,
that aOherever Foreign Missions are gaining,
ROMANISN IS GINNING.
What did [ tell you, five years ago, in my
book. "Foreign Missions Exposed?"
Didn't | warn our preachers that they were
lending indirect aid to Rome by sending into
distant lands the money, the men, and the
women that we needed here at home?
Did [ not do my very best to show our peo-
pie what blindness and folly it was to be
financing a fight against Rome in South
America. in France, and in Italy, when Rome
was gaining such throtte-hold on our cities,
our newspapers, our public men. and our Gov
eminent!
God knows, I have tried to do my duty
1t is no pleasure to me to lose good friends
on this question. any more than it is to lose
them on others; but have felt so profoundly
the unwsdom and the fatal consequences of
this mercenary method of doing the work of
the Master, that it was impossible to remain
silent
Why does Romanism gain where Foreign
Missions gain?
Because, IN proportion that our churches
keep their eyes and minds on China. THEY
FAIL TO SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING
HERE AT HOME.
The less our eyes and minds are fixed on
China the more We can see what Rome is
doing, here.
Isn't that plain?
That's exactly what DR.. Smiths own list
of States proves; and it is enough to make

THE .JEFFER SONHAN


This Infamous scoundrel tried to hang the
white woman, Mrs. Carman, on the evidence
of negro wench, who admitted on the stand
that she had previously perjured herself
The only other witness was tramp, who,
in the language of Northern editor is ''maore
or less correctly suspected to be IN the employ
Of the Burns detective agency"
The accusation implied in these words is,
that the Burns agency bribed the hobo Just
as the same agency 64l6ed Ragsdaze and Bar
Der.
In the one case, the effort was to frame up
evidence, which would hang negro; and, in
the other, the implied charge is, that tramp
was bribed to give evidence which would be
fatal to white woman.
The fearful charge against Burns was pub
lished in the New York Telegraph, where
Burns lives, and the brassy villain did not
dare to sue the paper, or to attempt reply.
What is the meaning of Burns latest
"angle" in the Phagan case?
Is it prelude to more Ragsdals and Barber
stunts?
Will hobo turn up somewhere, and sign
an affidavit that he killed Mary himself, or
saw the ripper who did?
Does Burns know that Bob Dawson, chair
man Of the Pardon Board, has already ex-
pressed his opinion, that Frank is innocent?
Does Burns know of the rumor which says
Patterson, another member of the Board, has
done likewise?
Is Burns at work on another "angle" pre-
pairing some dope that will save the faces of
Dawson and Patterson?
H0o0 n2u11y Supreme Courts haze qoe got,
C1nyacay?
How often may a new trial. and rehear-
ing and a review of the evidence be de-
handed?
The law says that we have one Supreme
Court, and that toc0 motions for meoo trial
are the limit
But in Franks case, the lawyers found t,co
Supreme Courts.
They have already had two motions for a
new trial.
When are ne going to get through trying
this case?
What right has either the Prison Commits
sion or the Governor to try 1t, again?
The true theory Of the pardoning power is,
that the executive may consider newly found
evidence, which either shows the innocence Of
the convict, or which mitigates the crime or
that the convict serving term has in some
way earned the moral right to be relieved
from further punishment.
The law never contemplated that the Prison
Commission should assume jurisdiction of
case, Immediately after the Supreme Court
had passed on it, and should thus usurp The
place Of an appellate Court OVER the ST.
IRENE Court.
Nor did the law ever contemplate that the
executive officers-the Commission and the
Governor should exercise judicial fel,ac-
H0ns
Neither the Commission nor the Governor
constitutes q court of revieac
The Legislature could not invest them with
such a power, without violating the Constitu-
ton of the State.
