Salt Riuer Valley Oranges

the pomelo and the sweet orange have been used. The sour stock has been demonstrated to be the most The variety principally planted in Arizona is the Washington Navel The fruit ripens very early and iS packed and shipped in time to open the season in the New York markets. Other varieties planted are Valencia, Mediterranean Sweet. Malta Blood, and there are still others. but the Washington Navel is the variety most generally planted
 Young budded trees are to be o''- tained locally at medium prices. If desired they may be grown in a home nursery. This process is not diff cult but it requires time to raise trees ready to plant out. Seeds of the root stock are soWn in rows, thca. when one or two years old, arc budded to the variety desired After the trees are two years old they are set out in orchard form Orange trees may be transplanted success fully at almost any time of the year. but the best time Ais early spring Some transplantinss have been made with great success, provided protec- ton is given, in September. The square system of planting is the most general and allows at 22 feet apart 90 trees to the acre; at 20 feet apart
 10S trees to the acre. and at ? feet apart 70 trees to the acre.
 Growers have been successful, but it is only in the past few years that complete tests of the orange groves have been made. Now that the wa
 ter supply is assured the industry will make great strides.
 Grapefruit
 The pOmelo or grapefruit does ! splendidly. Actual experience has
 shown II boxes to be taken from one tree. This sold for an average l of 1925 f. O. b. at Phoenix. 1 A proof of the favorable outloo': i for the citrus industry in Arizona is : the fact that the men who are going ! into the citrus fruit industry here
 are men from the other famous citrus centers of the world, men who have
 come here to look the ground over
 and have decided that this is the
 right field for their activities.

The Show Down."

It seems at first glance rather courageous thing for the president to do to ask congress for show down" in the matter of the proposed legislation rea- tive to warning Americans against taking passage cn board armed merchantmen A week ago the ad- ninistraton forces in congress nervously try ing to avoid that issue and in so doing they were executing the wishes of the White House Perhaps since then the administration assured itself of it's strength in congress. Or. it may be that the presi- dent has only changed his mind and is asking for the test for the effect it may have on the submarine controversy, but rather determine the attitude of the people through their representatives, toward the president this issue which though as an international issue it will Tank with years birds nest may be an influencing determining one in the presidential campaign
 The resolution will probably be defeated if it is brought up and at the time the president will he more enthusiastically supported by the republican members of congress than by those of his party. If the unexpected should happen and the resolution should he adopted, it will be done by democratic votes and those of a comparatively republicans who will choose to make partisan matter of it for the embarrassment of the president.

For that reason then, the administration. desired that the resolution and bill be suppressed committee But it appears that Germany was not to be, and could not have been, so influenced Its mind was made up to proceed with the program regardless of both department any action that congress might take
 Therefore, far the submarine ques- tion any matters outside the boundaries of the United States it make difference whether the show down asked for by the president place or not. Even if Germany had interest any dis pute between the president and congress regarding -he warning of Americans against taking passage on armed merchantmen it would look upon the dispute as wholly academic.

 Reviewing the Civil War period in America, the editorial comments on d change of the American policy so as to fit international conditions which had arisen in the United States. The adoption by MT. Seward, the then secretary of state, of the older view that a new government should have a good legal title as well as actual power, greatly modified the thought in America concerning recog- nition of a new government, and the News arrives at the conclusion that there are now two distinct views in America. One is that any new gov
 ernment with adequate powers to support itself should be recognized
 The other is that any new govern mcnt worthy of recognition must show itself to haze legitimate and popular approval,
 "Prcsident Wilson," says the News. would seem to have taken the latter
 view in the recent case of Hucrta President Roosevelt. the former, in the case of the rapid recognition of the republic of Panama. Arguments may he adduced for both views, and
 the facts vary SD much in different cases that it is hard to lay down any principle as universally applicable, so
 that inconsistencies discernible in the policy American statesmen have fol- | lowed are not only eXcusabe. but to some extent unavoidable. Whatever views may have prevailed at the time 1 we have to remember that America l was not slow to recognize the nom-

Candidates for Commissioner.

Both James A. Jones and B T. Gillett whom The Republican is supporting for city commissionerships, have lived in Phoenix long enough to be known to cry in Phoenix If they not. it is because they have devoted themselves closely to their own affairs and have absented themselves from cliques of politicians. That is greatly to their credit. MT Gett to Phoenix twenty y-four years ago. He had followed the business of tailoring nearly all of the time since then until recently But he has found time to take part in almost work for the moral bettelment of the city.

 It was while he was resident of Des Moines Iowa. that the political corruption of that city melted the uprising that brought about the "Des Moines Plan," the first important movement fer municipal reform in this country Mr. Gett took active part in that struggle, but twice he declined nomina- tions for the council because. ne believed. scientious discharge the office would take time from his business that he could not afford to spare. MT Gillett is believe, of small means, but he represents large element of good citizens who entertain pride in the ctys moral and material growth
 MT Jones came Phoenix twenty years ago Though he has not lived here continuously he has Leen engaged in mining and merchandising in camps in the vicinity of Phoenix and he has acquired . competency a result of his intelligent manag cement his affairs. He is the head of the Valley Hardware company. He is of the type of business men who, all agree. should give of themselves freely to the service of the public. But unfortunate ly, few do that
 They leave the conduct of a great business like that of the city of Phoenix with capital 1f say, $30,000,000, and the employer of hundreds of men. to men who have had experience in business, but usually ward politicians worse the tools of politicians. MT. Jones and MT Gilett not po- iiticians and neither has been identified with any political machine.
 we trust that the voters of Phoenix are as appre- catire of the quality of these candidates as they must be of the need of the city of of this type if tho purposes of a commission form of government ar be carried

WONDERH H()N U.S.. WILL TREAT NEW REGIME IN CHINA
IRepubIican A. ?. Leased Wirel


 FIXING, March 1-Chinese news papers are indulging in much specu lation as to what the attitude of the United States will be towards the Yuan Shi-Kai monarchy when it is formally proclaimed, and the emperor is actually enthroned. There have been repeated rumors that the United States is willing to recognize the monarchy, and this report has been encouraged by the papers supporting the change of government
 It is even reported that the United states will immediately recognize Yuan Shai-Kai as emperor after his taking the throne, and be the first cf all world powers to greet him in his new office.
 Germany and Austria have shown much interest in Ynan Shai-kais plan, and it is generally believed they will recognize him without delay. thus showing their contempt for the ef- | forts of the entente powers to pre- 1 vent the restoration of the monarchy l The representatives of the German and Austrian governments in China
  1 ly overlook the opportunity to recog- nize Emperor Yuan Shai-Kai first. 1 unless the United States acts more i prccipitately than usually is it's prae- | tice.
 is The attitude of the entente powers towards the monarchy is clearly the one thing which is delaying the pro- gress of the monarchical plan. and l worrying the Chinese government far more than revolutionary outbreaks at q great distance from the capital city. 1 Chinese officials are studying all in ternational precedents for the recag- hilton of new governments, and the ! Vernacuiar papers abound in discus | siuns as to the position the various foreign governments will take when China formally promlaims her en- peror.
 The Picking Daily News. which is semi official in character. prints an editorial today devoted to the con sidcration of America's recognition policy. It is based largely on a re cent book by Julius Goebel, Jr. call ed "The Recognition Policy of the United States" The editorial reviews the attitude of the United States to- wards new foreign governments his torically. and comments at length or the policy of Jefferson. the firsr American who enunciated the doc Urine that a new government is en- titled to recognition when it has es- tablished itself de facto, that is wheI it is master of the situation, able to repel attacks and maintain some sort of public order. The News discussed the application of this doctrine by the | United States in its recognition of tho new Spanish American states as thei
 discovered themselves from Spain.
 In speaking of the American adop-
 tion of this policy towards the Latin American states, the News states: T

 First Year Cost

To grow oranges successfully cer- tain requirements must be fulfilled and the Salt River Valley of Arizona is fortunate in having ideal condi- tions for the growing of all kinds of citrus fruits. The cost of establish ing an orchard is a matter of mo- ment to the grower The figures which we give here have been gone over carefully and verified in every particular.
 Cost to Start
 Land, per acre Approximate
 lY ..-................. .$2O0.o0 Trees, 90 to the acre, $1.10 each 99.00 First cost, preparing, ditchinS
 and leVeling ............... 1900 Planting trees .............-... 9.O0 Tree protectors ............ 4.J0 First Year cast Water for irrigation. .............$ 1.oO Labor .................... 5000 Total .................... .$315O The cost for the second year will | be about the same and also for the third year. Our estimate of labor cost is based upon actual experience | While varying slightly in different years, the average cost per year for | each of three years will be as stated above In all of these estimates the expense items have been put at the ! high figures and the aim has been to keep the revenue at the low rather than the high estimate:
 In the fourth year the trees should bear from one-quarter to one-third of a box of fine oranges each, or 22 to 27 boxes to the acre. After the fourth year the yield of fruit will increase yearly. Some authorities state that the trees are in full bear ing about the tenth year, while oth- CTS report an increased yield, if prop erly handled, up to 20 years.

nor clarke in encouraging a movement
for general observation of Memoir
ial day in Iowa. He is urging that
from ~ o'clock to 1905 at noon on
May 80. all Icwans stand with heads
barred in silent contemplation Of the
nations dead and the ideals for which
they died.
The governor was asked to incor-
porate this provision in his Mem
orial day proclamation. 1t has not
been the custom to issue such proc
lamation, but the governor feels it Is
good suggestion and that it should
be taken up throughout the state.
George A. Newman, adjutant gem
eral Of the G. A. R. of iowa, says that
although the order for Memorial day
issued by the G.. A. r. did not include
the suggestion that five minutes at
noon on May 80 be given to silent trib-
ute to the soldier dead, he believes It
is a splendid feature to add to the
memorial services.
"a fve-minute tribute at noon to
the nations dead will cause many
persons, who otherwise would not
enter into the spirit Of the day to take
an interest in it, said DR.. Newman.
1T should have an excellent effect
in arousing the patriotism Of the peo-
pie Of the state"

Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful what you wash it
with.
Most soaps and prepared sfampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very
harmful. Just plain mulsifed cocoanut
oil (Which is pure and entirely grease
less), is much better than the most ex-
pensive soap or anything else you can
use for shampooing, as this can't pos
sibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The 1ather rinses out cas-
lily and removes every particle of dust,
dirt, dandruf and excessive oil. The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and it
leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and
easy to manage.
You can get mulsifed cocoanut oil at
most any drug store. 1t is very cheap,
and few ounces is enough to last
everyone in the family for months.
