Lipestock Business is Big

The shipment of livestock from Holbrook during the shipping season which ended November 30 has been very large. Through the courtesy of w. J. Hookway, local agent for the Santa Fe Railroad company, The News is able to publish the number of cars of sheep, cattle. horses and wool sent out of Holbrook during the season.
 The total number of car loads shipped is 681. This is divided as follows: Sheep 425 cars; cat tie 222 cars; wool 33 cars; horses 1 car.
 The approximate number of sheep to a car is 25O head. the 425 ear loads carrying 106, 250 head. These sheep brought the owners probably $4. % per head, or total of S425. 000.00.
 The number of cattle in the 222 ear loads shipped is approxi- mately 40 to car. or total of Is. 1880 head. The amount of money received by the owners per head was probably $400 co, a total for the 222 cars of $355,- 10000.
 The 33 car loads of wool con- tained about 100000 pounds. which at 20 cent per pound brought the shippers $2O0, 900. co.
 The car load of horses probably brought the sellers $2. GOO.
 The grand total of money re- received by growers of livestock in this locality reaches the hand some sum of $98O. OOO.0O, nearly a million dollars.
 The amount of money paid local shippers has been estimat- ed as no figures are available as to the prices received by each indiYidual. The number of cars is accurate. and is furnished bv the railroad company. The act ual amount may be in excess of 
 one million dollars; anyhow it is a neat sum of money to be dis tributed among the livestock raisers of the community, and the benefits of such an influx of wealth will be far reaching.

THE ARIZONA COWBOY BY HARRY E. RIEsEBERG

He wears big hat and big spurs and all that
 And leggns of fancy frnged leather; He takes pride in boots and the pistol he shoots
 And he's happy in all kinds of weather. He is fond of his horse---'tis broncho of course,
 For, oh, he can ride like the Devil; He IS old for his years. and he always appears
 To be foremost at roundup or reye He can sing he can cook yet his eyes have a look
 Of man that to fear IS stranger; Yes hIs cool quiet nerve will always subserve In his wild life of duty and danger. He gets little to eat and he guys tenderfeet,
 And for Fashion----oh, well. he's mot in it! He can rope a gay steer when he gets on his ear,
 At the rate of two-ifty minute His saddles the best in the wild, woolly West,
 Sometimes 1t will cost sixty dollars; An he knows all the tricks when he brands mavericks But his earnings not gained from your scholars He IS loyal as steel, but demands square deal,
 And he hates and despises coward. Yet the cowboy you Il find unto women is kind,
 Though he'll fight till by death overpowered. Hence say unto you, give the cowboy his due.
 And be kinder, my friends. towards his folly; For generous and brave though he may not behave Like your dudes, who melancholy.

An Enterprising Citizen

Since time immemorial the man who causes several blades of grass to grow where but one grew before has received the plaudits of the people. Like wise should the man be com mended who causes several houses to arise where one, or none. stood before. Such a man is Julius Wetzler. who during the last few months has built a number of modern residences in Holbrook. and is planning to con tinue the same laudable enter prise.
 MT. Wetzler's action is espe- cially praiseworthy because ad- ditional dwelling houses are badly needed in Holbrook. The scarcity of residence properties in the town has prevented many  people from locating here. Peo- pie looking for a new location often have not the time to build homes for themselves; if they find houses already built, which they can buy or rent upon req sonable terms, they will come; otherwise they go on to another town where things are different. Hence we say that Mir. Wetzler is entitled to the commendation of every person who has an in- terest in the future growth of Holbrook.
 The fact that man of MT. Wetzler's wealth and business acumen believes that Holbrook is a good place to invest money is evidence that the business situa- tion here is sound; and that in- vestments made here will bring handsome returns.

HOIDrOok, ArlZOna,
 Dec. l, 1915 Editor Holbrook News.
 Holbrook. Arizona.
 Dear Sir:
 Will you kindly give space to a brief reply to articles recently appearing in the Winslow Mall concerning the Teachers Insti- tute held at Phoenix?
 Some of the statements made show the writer to be misin- formed or to be inspired with a desire to be unfair. It is alleged that the county superintendent forced the teachers of the county to attend in opposition to thelr almost unanimous protest. The fact is that the county superin- tendent wrote letters to all tea chers whose addresses he had at the time. inquiring as to their desires in the matter of holding institute at Phoenix, at Prescott, or within the county. Such a letter was mailed to the superin- tendent of schools at Winslow.
 Of the written replies to those letters a large majority voted for Phoenix; Prescott was sec ond, with the local institute very poor third. Not a single teacher extended an invitation to hold the institute within his district.
 Now as to the benefits derived: The Mail alleges that they were nil. This reflection on the intel ligene of the teachers should be resented by every progressive member of the profession. The writer takes this opportunity of informing the Mall that it's in formant was not authorized to. speak for the teachers of the. whole county. Neither does he believe that sald informant voices the sentiments of the en- tire teaching body of Winslow. These teachers are progressive, and it is doubtful if a single one of them is mourning over the $5 the Mail walls about. The wri- ter has attended many institut- es in his day and he remem- bers not one case where he got off so lightly.
 The institute was a success as such gatherings go. The writer has attended many that were not so good some of them with in our own county. Some teach CTS, according to their own testimonies, received compensa- tive for both time and money! from a single lecture. Talk to the teachers from your own dis trist. MT. Editor. You have heard no vail from them.
 Now as to the Tot of explain ing to do next year when he wants re election to his job. /" It has been, MT. Editor. the de- sire of the writer to treat every body fairly. He desires the good will of the people whom he ser yes. if such good will can be ob- tained by fairness and the per formance of his duty as he sees it. No act of his has been per formed with reelection as the incentive.
 Every pubic servant should try to obtaln a proper conception Of what the laws of the common wealth require of him and then perform his duties without fear or favor, always remembering that he is serving all and not a favored few.
 Thanking you for the space in your valuable paper, the writer subscribes himself.
 Yours truly,
 JOSEPH PETERSON.

The members Of the board Of county supervisors are entitled to the commendatlon of every resident of the county for the action taken to secure a number of new bridges in the county. Money spent for the improve ment of the public highways is money spent well and The News believes that the board has acted wisely in calling bond election to secure money for bridge build ing purposes. It is now the duty of the taxpayers to vote for the bonds in January and thereby assure this needed improvement in the highways.
 Attorney c. H. Jordan is not fully convinced that bachelor life in Holbrook in the winter time is the pleasant life. It may be well enough in the summer time, when there are no fires to build. and restaurant menus con- tain greater variety of foods, but in the wintertime-well. it's different. Mrs. Jordan is spend ing the winter in El Paso. and. if indications about the county attorney's office are to be relied upon, The News will chronicle the departure of Mr. Jordan for that city in a short time.
 A new switchboard was in- stalled in the local office of the Navajo-Apache Telephone sys- tenn this week. The switchboard is a handsome piece of furniture; it will accomodate 300 telephones and while it is now equipped for manual manipulation. it can be readily converted into the auto smatic should occasion require. Manager Woods states that the change from the old switchboard
 the new will be made at night and that the service will not be lnterferred with during business hours.
 w A Rarnum of Phoenix. at- torney for the state livestock as- sociation, was in Holbrook last Monday.

IA; he therefore returned to Phoenix. Attorney Barnum was at one time judge of the district court in Oklahoma. and is an old acquaintance of Judge Sapp, who resided in Oklahoma at that time.
