and Sinners" 3rd Episode of 1.-THE
Mysteries Of Myra," Paramount
News Pictures and Others

The perturbation of Henry Arthur
Jones world-famous drama "Saints
and Sinners" produced by the Famous
Players Film Co., will undoubtedly be
considered a notable screen achieve
ment, The great distinction and sue
cess that this powerful play has at
tanned on the stages Of every English
speaking country Of the globe, added
to its unusual pictorial possibilities,
make this subject an unique photo
play offering. But besides these de-
tails of more than ordinary interest,
added Importance attaches to the pro-
duction because the noted British star,
Peggy Hyland, appears on the screen
in the role of Lefty, the central char
acter, about whom the absorbing and
thrilling plot revolves. Miss Hyland's s
charm and dramatic talents combine
to make the characterization one to be
long remembered Altogether, the ex-
traordinary conjunction of star and
play contributes to make this photo
drama one of the most important ever
offered by the Famous Players Film
Co. on the Paramount program.
Also the third episode of THE Mys-
teries of Myra," featuring Howard
Estabrook and Jean Sothern THE
Mystic Mirrors is the title of this
chapter, and it refers to the hypnotic

scientific facts in the possession of farmers which have not already been worked out in detail by the agricul tural experiment stations or agricul- tural investigators. Indeed, in the majority of cases where a farmer thinks he has discovered some eX- elusive secret of successful farming, it turns out on investigation that this is something he has picked up either through reading, at farm CTS meeting, from some neighbor, or from some source which is equally available to all farmers who will take advantage of the various sources these secrets sometimes turn out to be mere theories of the farmer which are of no practical value whatever.
 Therefore, let the farmer who thinks he has a secret method of sue cessful farming which he is afraid his neighbor will get hold of, look it up in the agricultural extension service. or consult his county farm advisor. This is not intended to dis courage farmers who are honestly in search of knowledge that will in crease their farm profits, but it is rather intended as a warning to the dog in the manager farmer who does not want anybody to succeed but himself. In conclusion: There are no secrets in farming that are not equal ly available to all who would learn them $. F. Morse Supt. Agr Ext. Service

OVERLAND BOWERS
 0UT AFTER HONORS

The remarkable record made by the Overland bowling team last season which eliminated in it's winning the Ohio state championship at Cleve- land, and the rare form displayed by the automobile makers this year. has made them strong favorites for first honors in the annual state tourna ment, which opened in Columbus February 2.
 The same men who made up the 1915 championship team represent the Overland All Stars" this season and the fact that they have bowled to- gether for years in state and national tournments makes them hard com bination to beat. Those who have watched the team roll in recent prac- tice games declare it to be in prime shape to defend the title.
 c. Krausberger. J. Rayman, B. Sher- man. A. Flick. l.. Phillips and Peter Neise are the members of the over land All Stars" who hope to repeat their performance of last year. The Overland league also will be represented in the tournament by an- other team made up of the following men; J. Daly, R. Bushing,C. Totten, l.. Reimer. J. Zundell and F. Elesper- man. This team, called the over lands,' was picked from among tlt' highest average bolwlers in the league, l which numbers AS organized teams as well as 800 active members who use the alleys regularly throughout the winter. As the ranking men of the entire number are chosen to rep | resent the company in the state and ', national tournaments, competition for places is exceedingly keen.

State Lands
 The Enabling Act under and by virtue of which Arizona was admitted to the Union, granted to the state all of sections ?. 16. 32 and 36, of every township when such lands were not therefore appropriated and in addi- tion thereto the right to select several million acres of unreserved govern ment land within the state.
 The Public Land Code, which pro- vides for the creation of a State Land Commission and for the sale leasing and administration of all state lands passed the legislature in the spring of 1915. and became a law on June 26, 1915. Acting under authority vested in them by congress and the Legisla- ture, the State Land Commission has selected and will continue to select large bodies of desirable public lands. These lands, which will eventually amount to millions of acres, are now offered for sale or lease by the Land Commission.
 The regulations provide that any person, over the age of IS years, who is a citizen of the United States or who has declared his intention of be- coming q citizen, may lease or pur- chase not to exceed GAO acres of graz ing land or 160 acres of agricultural land. It will thus appear that it is not necessary to reside in Arizona or to become a citizen of the state in order to acquire title to state lands.
 State lands are divided into four classes; CD Agricultural lands, or lands which may be irrigated from any completed irrigation project and for which water is available; @ Min eral lands which consist of lands chief ly valuable for their mineral depos- it's: (3) Timber lands consisting of lands carrying merchantable timber and (D Grazing lands, or lands that have no present value except for the grazing of live stock.
 Mineral lands arc not sold, but mineral claims may be located on state lands in the same manner as upon the general public domain The discOverer of the lode. ledge or de- posit carrying mineral has prefer ence right to the leasing of such lands and upon terms that may mutually be agreed upon. Mineral Iesees are entitled, under certain limitations. to the use of timber on State lands in connection with their mining opera tions. Timber land is not sold, but the timber thereon is subject to sale on contract for terms of not more
Arizona republican., 1916-02-13

than , years and in quantities of not more than 50 million feet to per sen or corporation. The timber land of Arizona is practically all covered by the National forests.
 State lands are leased for periods of nor more than years and at an appraised annual rental which is nev- CT less than Sc per acre per annum fer grazing lands. So the minimum rent charge for $40 acres of land is s1920 a year. The rent charge is payable annually and lessees of state lands who improve lands held by them are entitled to preference right to renew the lease, or in event Of their subsequent sale, are entitled to receive the reasonable value of such improvements from the pur chaser.
 Lands are sold at an appraised price of not less than $300 per acre for grazing land. Sales are conduct | ed at the county seat in which the land is situated and the land is awarded to the highest bidder. How ever, no bid is considered when less than the appraised price. The pur- chase money is payable per cent at the time Of sale, and the balance in 38 equal annual installments with interest on deferred payments at the { rate of , per cent per annum. The land is thereafter immediately entered , upon the tax rolls and taxed as though ! privately owned
