MUNITIONS GOING UP.

War is certainly all that Sherman
said it was and then some. At least
sportsmen all over the country are
going to think so about the first
part OF September when they be-
gin purchasing ammunition for the
fall hunting season. Before the be-
ginning of the European struggle
shells i'll the popular makes for 12
gauge shot guns loaded with smok-
less powder sold for 70 cents box
or $l3 a case. The same Shells
loaded with black powder at that
time sold for Soc box or SO case.
Today the snokeless shells are SELL
ing for csc a box and $19 a case,
while black powder shells are now
selling for zoe box or $13 case.
These prices have been reached af-
ter three advances. The first adj
vance of 10 per cent came about
two weeks ago. The increase in
price has not been confined to the
IL gauge variety alone and 1o and
20 gauge shells and all sizes of rifle
bullets have also participated in the
raise. Whether or not further
incease can be looked for dealers
are somewhat reticent in stating.
All makes of shot guns and rifles
have likewise gone up from S4 to
$40. The Winchester repeating
shotgun which year ago sold for
S22.50 now sells for $26.5O Some
makes of the automatic shotguns
have gone up too.

Good Advertisers

A Observation-Disclosures sacks
of Sears Roebuck catalogues arriv-
ed at the postoffice here last week
for distribution in this territory.
This is only a small part of the
mail order advertising that will be
done here this summer and fall, as
the mail order concerns will assist
in the flooding of this trade terri
tory with literature. While we
have but scant sympathy with the
mail order house, we must admire
them for their CONSTANT and eff.
fective methods of advertising.
They long ago learned the truth
of the saying that it pays to adver-
tise and they work it to the limit.

Ben Cunningham made his last
official trip on the Diamond route
on Monday last. The mail for Dia-
mond is now carried in a seperate
pouch by rural route carrier who
leaves Rosholt each morning. If
the post Office department pursues
its usual policy of serving small
communities by rural carrier, it is
probable that the Diamond Office
will be discontinued when the new

ROTARY CLUB WILL
 HOLD DEPARTURE MEET
 -ON THURSDAY NIGHT
Local Organization Will Put On Biggest
 Time in Its History in Phoenix; All Members Expected

The Rotary. club, which now boasts of one hundred members is planning a meeting for Thursday evening at the Rose Tree, at which it is not only eX pected but demanded that one hundred per cent of the members be present.
 One of the biggest sessions that the club has ever put on will be in order. The Washington Gridiron club will not have a thing on the Phoenix Rotary club.
 As an example of what is to be put on, it might be mentionec that Pat Get tins of the Mountain States Telephone company has been put in charge of the program. Gettins is famed far and near for his original and versatile stunts. There will be solos, dialogues, recitations, music and all sorts of cut up stunts. It is expected that certain well known characters will receive their due in a conservative amount of
 good natured roasting and chaff. i The special meeting is the culmina- 1 ton of contest between two factions
 of the club, "The Hubs and "The Spokes." The Hubs, having lost the contest, will put on the entertainment | The regular meeting Friday noon
 will be dispensed with. as it is expect
 ed that the meeting Thursday evening
 will be enough for one week.

 so far by those who have had an insight into the doings. The chairman is let ting no one entirely into his confidence 1 but few who will aid in the rendering

WHITE PAPERS
 SECOND JUMP
Shortage of Dye Matter, Due to War Causes Another Price Advance; Situation Grave With Some Print ing Establishments

The paper shortage throughout the country has become alarming and there is no prospect that the situation will be improved soon. Even the close of the war would not bring immediate re- lief. It is probable that some printing establishments will have to suspend op- erations and those that are the best stocked will soon be unable to furnish certain grades of paper.
 Soon after the beginning of the war there was steady rise in the prices of paper and it was especially marked in the finer grades in which dyeing matter was used. A couple of morths ago, within a short time there was a jump of fifty per cent in the prices and since then there has been a slow rise.
 Yesterday there was another fifty per cent jump, of which E. A. Doran representing Blake MOffitt TOwne, of Los Angeles, was apprsed by his house in the following telegram:
 Los Angeles" Mar. 27, 1916 ''E. \. DOran,
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 Notice just received advancing all papers practically fifty per cent. Your orders must be taken subject to our acceptance. Suggest you return home fer present.

COTTON GROWERS MEET TUESDAY
 ID ORGANIZE
Fifty or More Planters of Jefferson and Lincoln Ex-
 pected at Meeting.

For the purpose of organizing a Cotton Growers association, similar to that formed some time ago at Scotts, a meeting of cotton planters of this county and section will be held at the assembly hall of the chamber of commerce Tuesday of next week, at Il o'clock in the fore nonO.
 Invitations to attend the meeting were mailed to 30 or more cotton growers yesterday by Secretary E. B. Pioom of the chamber of commerce, at the request of the planters who gre responsible for the movement. These men are among the leading planters of Lincoln and Jeff prson county, and they have decided to form an organization here, only after study ing carefully the operations of the Scotts association.
 J. R. Alexander of Scotts, one of the best known and most successful cotton men in the state, is given the credit of organizing the Scotts asso- citation, and has accepted an invita- ton to attend the meeting here. to make an address to the planters of this section. explaining in detail the workings of the association. It is expected there will be large at- tendance at the meeting, and that the organization vii! be perfected Pri- marily, the purpose of the organiza- ton is to bring about hearty cooper ation among the cotton planters, not only in marketing their prOdl1ct hut in purchasing seed and other sup plies. and generally in carrying on the business of their several farms.

Alderman Persevering in Effort to Improve Sani-
 tary Conditions.
COUNCIL SHOULD
 TAKE ACTION NOW
People Complaining Because of Condl. lions That JeOpardixe Life and Health, and Want War Started on
 Mosquitoes, Flies.

Alderman J. M. Simpson, who is chairman of the sanitary committee of the city council, is continuing hts efforts to have the council make scme arrangements, for the better ment of sanitary conditions in the city through the establishment of a new city dumping ground or an inciner- ating plant, preferably the latter.
 A proposition was placed before the council some months ago by the manufacturer of an incinerator which proposition was studied by the sanitary committee and which was approved by the sanitary committee The council pook no action, however, 1t being stated at that time, and on several occasions since, that no ac- ton in the matter would be taken until the finance committee of the council could ascertain exactly what tEe city could do, this decision to be reached following a study of the city's financial condition
 N The need of an incinerating plant appears to be generally recognized and admitted, by those who are aware of the conditions which pre- vail here. It Is known that because of the shifting of the river channel, She old dumping ground is a nuisance ana q n1enace to health, as the trash and other debris dumped at the old grounds, often remains there for days at a time, there being little or no water ito carry it off. Mosquitoes and flies breed in vast quantities, the Sdor, especially in summer, is al- most unbearable, and there appears no doubt the public health is jeopar- dixed because of the, presence Of the trash at that location.
 { ssSpmething must he dnne,'' said Alderman Simpson at a recent meet ink Of the council. .I maintain that this Hauestion fs the one of supreme Importance at this time, to the peo- Efa of this city. The people are ecmplaining. they have cause for complaint, and this council should do Spmething. It must be done sooner CT. later, and for that reason I would like to see 1t done now, when the Ssaaisests good will be accomplished" i"
 Although 1t has been expected the C0Gncfl would instruct that other makes of incinerators be studied, and propositions be received from other manufacturers. no such instructions have vst been issued. Those trem- hers of the, council who are urging the matter, feel assGred that after warm weather comes, the council will ba forced by the people to take action, but assert such action should be taken now, that the incinerating plant may be ready for operation by the beginning of summer.
