The kim and the Peasant.

A lot of good space, time, ink and
sympathy is being wasted on old King
Peter Of Serbia, in telling what sad
thing it is for him to be a king with
out kingdom, of how he was lifted
tenderly from his horse, of how he was
taken to Italy and is to live in Z
palace in that country until the time
comes when he may return to his own
land.
And while all this is being written
the Serbian people, the peasants who
have been tramping barefooted along
frozen roads. whose homes have been
destroyed and whose loved ones have,
in many cases, been killed in battle,
are forgotten.-Savannah News.

Chandler by the company.
 Last spring Dr. Swingle assured growers that they would have no diff ficulty in disposing of their cotton this year. that is, cotton of the ordinary long staple variety-nothing was said then of the Pima cotton-at thirty cents pound. The price is now 46l2 cents. It is estimated that the net profits of the cotton industry in this valley this year will fall not far short of one million dollars.
 The effect on the value of real estate has been tremendous. Many sales of farm land have been made within the last few months at high prices and rentals have greatly increased, Land is now being rented for cotton grow ing at from sl5 to s25 an acre.
 The sale of land for other purposes has been greatly stimulated. Previous ly stockmen and dairymen had rented lands for their cattle instead of own ing it; they could invest their money in cattle to greater advantage. But on account of the demand of land for cotton. they were either unable to rent longer or to rent at prices which gave them an advantage over the invest ment of money in land.
 The greater part if not all of the valley cotton crop this year will go into automobile tires and thread. The principal customers for the crop are the Goodyear Tire company and the great thread companies of the east. rep resented by two brokers.

eastern continent. came to believe that Egyptian cotton could be produced in the southwestern part of the United States. Though pr. Swingle was at that time more interested in fruits, he induced the experiments at Yuma
 Some time after that, Colonel Frank Hatch, who had spent some time in Egypt and had observed the quality of cotton produced on the shores of the Mediterranean, returned to Phoe- nix and in a conversation with Lin coin Fowler, told him he believed that cotton of that grade could be produced here. Mir. Fowler communicated with the government and as q result a wagon load of long staple cotton seed was sent to him But it came so late in the season, after his other crops were planted and when he was no longer able to secure water for addi- tional land, that he turned the seed over to Dr. Swingle and the experi- ments at Sacaton were begun.
 Mir. E. w. Hudson was put in charge of the work there and began eXperi- ments in the matter of improving the already high quality of the cotton with the result that more than a year ago a grade was produced with a fiber about an eighth of an inch longer than any that had hitherto been produced and which was also stronger and finer
 The result of those experiments were not publicly announced until seed had been gathered from the new cotton sufficient to plant several hundred acres. This new grade known as Pima cotton has been grown this year in the vicinity of Tempe. It is estimated that there will be enough seed from it to plant 6,000 acres next year.
 The present successful stage of the long staple cotton growing industry . was not reached without discourage ments and difficulties. Among them was the introduction of short staple cotton into the valley, but the failure of that which was foreseen was hap pily quickly proved and the planting of it has been abandoned. Thus the chief danger of a deterioration of the long staple variety has been removed
 Before the development of the Pima grade the long stple produced here was found to be superior to that of Egypt and when the quality of it became known in the east and in Liverpool a market for it was assured. The first cotton was sold for about twenty two lcents a pound. chiefly for use in mak- ing thread. Other uses were found for it and the automobile tire industry | opened a still greater demand. the extent of which is almost unlimited. The attention of the Goodyear Tire company was attracted to the valley and negotiations have for some time been under way for the acquiring of a large tract of land in the vicinity of

HERE $ 4 NET PROFIT
 IF s285 PER ACRE

Perhaps the most distinguished sue cess made in the growing of cotton in the valley this year or for that matter anywhere in the world. is that attained by Max Cottrell on his ranch south of Tempe. MT. Cottrell had thirty-siX acres in cotton of the Pima variety. When he was asked the other day what the yield would be per acre, he replied that he did not know; it was not all picked yet but he already had forty bales and he was sure of enough more to make the total yield a bale and a half
 Said he: At the time the picking began, I was told by experts that ought to get two bales to the acre. But a great deal of it was broken down by the piclSers, but l didn't com plain of whatever waste there was for the crop gave promise of being such an unexpectedly bountiful one. I am satisfied"
 MT CottreIl has good reason to be satisfied He expects fifty cents a pound for his cotton which at a bale and half per acre will bring him $375 an acre. The usual cost for produc- tion, that is water, cultivation, pick ing and ginning, is about $69 an acre. But making the most liberal estimate of his expenses. including such items as interest and every item that could possibly be brought into account, his yield will net him S2S5 an acre.
 Mir. Cottrell said that such prices could not be expected every year, but half that price, and there is no possi- bility. with the growing demand for cotton of this grade, the comparatively limited known area where it can be produced, that it will ever be as low as half the present price, the profit would be sufficiently attractive. He will plant no acres to Pima cotton next year.

STORY IF START AND MOVEMENT
 IF AN INDUSTRY

A few years ago much was heard of intensive farming in this valley, the raising of garden truck, the unsuit ability of such high priced land as that of the Salt River valley had be- come to the growing of alfalfa, barley and wheat. Intensive farming, of course. pays, but the products of in tenslve farming do not always find a steady market and a steady market las been the thing lacking here. part ly because of the lack of a main line railroad and partly because of a lack of cooperation among growers where by production would be steady enough to encourage a steady market.
 But the whole valley could not be given over to truck gardening. Much of the land is too far removed from shipping points for that and beside, the production from such a vast area would be greater than the present population within any territory that could possibly be reached, would con- sume.
 But long staple cotton, which was first planted here five years ago, has now reached such a stage of produc- ton that the profits from that that used to be dreamed of from the raising of garden truck seem inadequate and commonplace. This year growers will net-that is. those growers who have employed such methods as experiment tation have proved to be the best in the selection of land. the preparation of it and the cultivation of their crops-sums easily ranging from $50 to S25O an acre on which a crop has been grown and matured within the short space of nine months.
 The first Egyptian cotton experi- ments were made near Yuma less than ten years ago under the direction. of officers of the department of agrieul- ture. The chief credit for undertaking these experiments is due Dr. Walter T. Swingle, special agent of the division of vegetable physiology and pathology of the department of agri- culture, who in the course of his studies which took him all over trop- ical and sub-tropical countries of the

HAD HEARD OF VALLEY
 AS LAND IF COTTON

The fame of the Salt River valley as a cotton growing region, and the stories of the great profits that have been made by growers here have spread in many directions and have brought many kinds of people with many notions and hopes to the valley.
 A few days ago lady. accompanied by her mother and sister arrived in Phoenix from Washington. D. C., to engage in the cotton growing business. The long journey was made by auto- mobile. The husband of the lady is connected with one of the federal de- partments and she announced that if she and her companions could make a success of the cotton growing enter prise. they would send for him to join them at the end of the first year.

MEN WHO SUCCEEDED
 WITH "P|MA'' COTTON

Testimony may be furnished by scores of farmers to their success this year in the growing of long staple cotton. Many of them have already been mentioned in the ar ueles on these pages. One that should deserve attention is the case of J. M. Chumley. who lives east Of the city. MT. Chumley rented q tract of seventy acres las, spring anc put little more than half of il into cotton.
 It was so late when MT. Chumley secured possession of the land that in the opinion of many he would be unable to grow crop, but he went ahead anyhow. The young cotton was so promising later that Mir Steele of the Tempe exchange ad- vanced money on it for further expenses and now cotton to the amount of sS,000 has been realized

POTATO CROP COMES TO CLOSE

Hastings. June 6.-After most un-
precedented conditions, the 1el5-1e
potato crop and harvest is now q
thing Of the past. 1t Is safe to say
that however many more crops the
present generation of farmers may
raise, the pesent one will never be
forgottn Never in all the history of
the section were hopes raised higher,
and never were they. dashed so low.
One week 1t looked as II record
crop would be harvested all over the
great district, and the next 1t looked
as though there was nothing left to
do but plough up the remains and
get something else planted right
away. And yet in spite of all, and
while some few farmers did not quite
make their expenses, some have made
NOR money this season than they
ever ade, and the majority have
made far more already than they
could have made growing corn or
any other crop in the nothern and
middle western States. or small
grains on the western prairies, and
still have fine crop of corn coming
on, to be followed by peavine hay
or some similar crop, all on the same
land, and without an additional
pound OF fertilizer.

BRITISH LOSSES OVER 100000
(By Associated Press. }

Vienna, June 6.-The losses of the
British Irak expeditionary force
amounted, up to the end of the Sec
ond week in May. to more than 10O,-
900 men in killed, wounded and
prisoners, according to Heer und
Politik.
In a series of engagements with
the Turks last November the British
lost 1920 dead, according to this
journal, and this number must, 1t
says, be added. together with its pro-
portion of wounded, to the British
casualty lists published at that time
admitting a loss of $4,000 men In
the Irak campaign. At the first of
the year 1916 the British losses we're
more than 10000 officers and men
killed and wounded in action or dead
of disease, according to this papers
figures.
The battle of Menlahie, late in
January, cost the British 5000 men
and approximately 1850 wounded,
on authority of Turkish reports, and
few days before this the British
are declared to have had losses of
about $500 at Sheik Said. This Sc
les Of engagements is conservatively
estimated here to have cost the Brit
ish Irak forces about 10000 men
At Felahie, early in March, the
British left on the battlefield, ac-
cording to the Turkish official COM
munique, nearly 5000 dead; and in
the attacks made by the Turks upon
British forces in the same vicinity in
April the British lost nearly 10000
killed and wounded, it is claimed.
If to all these figures are added the
prisoners of Kut-el-Amara. the total
estimate of 100000 in British losses
is passed.

MALE EXPERTS IN
SOCIAL WORK IN LONDON

London, June "a new boy
problem brought about by the war
has created a field for male experts
in social work in England--that of
acting as supervisors for the thous-
ands of boys employed on munitions
work throughout the country. The
sudden rise in the economic value Of
the boy, the competition for his serv-
ices and the high wages he is paid,
have made many of hs kind less
amenable to discipline than ever.
The Workers Welfare Department
of the Ministry of Munitions which
has been studying the boy problem
In its new phases finds that the chief
complaints are these: ,
Feeling certain of easily finding
another job. boy readily leaves a
workshop because of some slight mis-
understanding or seeming injustice,
and his high wages tend to make
him Independent of home control,
and extravagant and thriftless in
spending them.
Believing that the boy needs,
aside from the formal factory con-
troll, kindly supervision and guild
ance, it has been decided to appoint
supervisors to be paid by the man
agement of each. of the 3,00O-odd
munitions factories.
It is proposed that the supervisor
shall look after the general working
conditions so far as they affect the
health and comfort of the boys. Be-
fore any boy is dismissed or given
his discharge the case is to be turned
over to the supervisor so that by an
interview with the boy, or a visit to
his home, he may be able to remove
the cause of the trouble.
It is intended also that the super
visor shall be told the wages each
boy earns, which will enable him to
appreciate the boys financial posi-
tion in his home, and devise the best
means for encouraging him to save
