Farm Deposits Instead of Loans,

One trouble with us in the South Is
that we think too much about a bank
as being a place to get money in;
instead of as place to put money IL !;
and it would be better, as Doctor But
Ter recently suggested, if we said that
it is "a rural banking system" that
we need rather than a rural credit
system-for it must embody the de-
post and saving feature as well as the
credit and borrowing feature.-From
the Progressive Farmer.

Rack for Squatted and Hanging
Dressed Poultry.

Ice and salt the car "a hours before
loading. The car. at the end of "a
hours should show a temperature be-
low 40 degrees F. at a point four feet
above the floor and between the doors.
General Suggestions.
Never handle chickens roughly,
either before or after killing. Rough
handling causes bruises, broken bones,
SCARED skins, and soft places in the
flesh. Undue haste on the part of the
killers and pickers results in lowered
keeping quality and poor appearance
of the product.
Piecework, which leads to quantity
rather than quality, makes for lower
prices on the market. Those who pay
by the piece should remember that
they sell by the quality of the piece.
These directions will apply with
equal force to turkeys intended for the
market.

MERCHANTS ENL|STING IN BIG NUMBER FOR
 FL PAS0 MOTORCADE
Success of Outing Seems As sured by Pledges of Lead ing Business Men of War ren District to Participate.

Success of the Southern Arizona Disbursements automobile excursion to Fl Paso is assured by the Warren District and Tombstone. From these two communities alone will be more cars than were originally expected from the whole south end of tho state. This district has awakened to the idea with enthusiasm and the all ready long list of inteding starters is only the beginning and is certain of considerable addition.
 Up to. 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon the following car owners had stated to Secretary Gray of the Commercial Club that they expected to make the trip and were arranging their plans accordingly: J. J. Bowen. Jesse Yoa- kum, Dr. Ralph Herendeen, Matt Wartenberg, of the Johnson Meat Market, P. M. Buckwalter, Gus Bore go. of the Guaranty Shoe Co.,. A. M. Livingston, Dr. w. P Sims, L. J. Overlook. Cochise Motor Co.,, J. c. Ryan, county engineer, M. E. Wooten, James E. Brophy, F. w. Ritter, of the Lowell Drug Co.,, N. M. Jacobs, Robert Hennessy, Lee Jovanovich, Jock McGregor, L. A. Brown and a car from the Phelps Dodge Mercantile company.
 Considering favorably the making of the trip and seeking to arrange matters so that they can go are J. R. Henderson. Dr. NJ. D. Cohen, E. A. Crocker. c. s. Thompson, w. M Fitz- gerald, L. L. Gilman. Dr. N C. Bled- soc. Lorenzo Knapp. c. T. Knepp. Ralph Ziesmer. of Smith & Ziesmer, Dr. George D., Craig. w. Nj. Brophy and James Allison. Of these, seven considered the chances favorable to their going and six were in the decid- edly doubtful column, From out of town Henry K. Street and Frank B. Moson were known to be favorably considering the excursion.
 Lamar Cobb, the state engineer, has expressed to J. c. Ryan, his as- sistant. his wish and intention to be of the party. He is to join the. War ren District delegation at Bisbee and accompany them from here. A party of county officials including members of the board of supervisors has ex- pressed the intention of joining the party and A. M. Gardner has stated that Tombstone will send three cars loaded with boosters from that good old mining camp.
 Time for replies to the circular letters sent out by the Commercial Club has not yet expired nor is the personal canvass that is being made ended. Thus it appears that the War ren District alone is capable and will ing of conducting such an excursion as has been undertaken. Continued good weather is now all that is needed to still further fan the fires of enthusi- asm.
