THE FARMER: OCTOBER 20, 1916


 President, "but I realize that I cannot do so without speaking to my own conscience and to the conscience of the other people of the nation" He pointed out that the new citizens had chosen their new allegiance. Within the last few months he added, some distinctions have been drawn. A man or woman who be- comes citizen of the United States IS not expected to give up his or her love for the country of their birth. But people who come to this country are expected to. put their new allegi- ance above every other allegiance. It puts an obligation on them.
 The future of this nation depends upon the self-control and loyalty of its citizens. Only by conscience and by loyalty felt in every throb of the heart can you become true citizens"
 Say It Again!" They Cry.
 The Presidents address was fre- quently interrupted by applause. Say 1t gain!" people in the crowd shouted often as he spoke of the need of loy- atty.
 Tt is necessary that new citizens
 
 live by themselves. That Is importing the old country here

 He added he did not mean the Unit ed States should have any part in de- term1ning the terms of settlement. He spoke of the fact that many Ameri- cans are drawn from Germany, Ire

Every mine makes a strike when he 1900 foot level is reached. declares Maurice Banberger, a New York mill lonaire. who is passing the winter in phoenix.
 The strike may not be ore. however, he asys. If may oe maps. literature md circulars.
 While NIT. Banhcrger does not be- i"ve that every good prospect will develop into mine. he is convinced that Arizona will he mining cam,. from one end to the other. He be- loves that number of the strikes will be made. and soon. He predicts a strike of rich ore in more than one district. for he is of the belief that there are other United Verde Exten- sons and Magmas in the red metal state.
 And how to play the game?
 The conservative customer suggests that after making an investment. the gtockholder should forget all about it for a time. He says "patience" is one of the rules of the game. and an other warning is this: Do not watch the flnctuation from day to day"

SORGHUMS IN TWO
 DISTINCT GROUPS

The sorghums aIc generally classcd into two groups: The sacchrine. a mild sorghum used for s-rup making or for forage. and the non -saccharine sorghums. sometimes called grain sor- ehums. used for grain and forage.
 The grain sorghums are of tropical origin and possess the ability of flour ishing best in hot climates. They are particularly drought resistant and ad r. miranly adarted to the semi-arid re- gions of the south. They reach their best development under eight to ten inches of rainfall during the grow ing season.
 There are three general types of grain sorghums classified according tc the character of head
 !. Kafir. with compact. erect heads 2. Durra. with compact. pendant heads.
 3. Broom corn type, with loose speading heads.
 The varieties of grain sorghums profiiatly grown in Arizona that be- long to these types arc as follows:
 Black hull white Kafir. dwarf and standard.
 White milo or durra.
 Yellow milo generally called Mill, Maize. dwarf and standard
 Feterita one of the durras.
 Shallu. broom corn type. some times called Egyptian wheat Kowliang. another broom corn type.
