WAY DOWN In ARIZONA

A travelling salesman who goes INTO
every nook and corner of Arizona, Wis
fting the w. c. T. U. booth at the Pan
ama-Paciic exposition, asked what we
knew of the results of prohibition in
Arizona. Miss Brown, the director, re-
peated some of the statements which
had come to her from residents and
travellers, no at all knowing his atti.
tude in the matter. Then he told her
that he had been in all parts of the
state, having gone over the territory
for fourteen years. He said: you
cannot exaggerate changed conditions.
In the mines the accidents have de-
creased 80 per cent, the efficiency has
more than doubled, and the physical
appearance of the communities has
greatly improved. The faces of men
look far fresher, healthier and happi-
er. Business has improved greatly.
Merchants and other business men
who formerly opposed prohibition on
the ground of injury to business are
now its greatest boosters and would
not allow a return to old conditions.
prohibition has come to stay in Ari-
iona" The visitor admitted that he

denial that procures no benefit for 9TH
ers. The folly of the child who insist
ed upon lodging in the cellar of his
fathers house when all the mansion
had been built and furnished for his

as the sinful greed of another who de.
prived his brothers and sisters of their

his own. An earthly parent is best
pleased when his children enjoy with
thankfulness any provision that his

be conscription IN Canada. / repeat
that statement today"
And then as to taxes" | continued,
quoting again from official authority.
All taxes levied by the Federal Gov
eminent take the indirect form of Gus
toms excise and inland revenue du-
ties. 1t is untrue that farmers are
paying direct war-tax levies and no
intending settler need hesitate to
come to Canada on this account.
Official denials should convince you
that all a-pprehensions which have
been making some would-be-settlers
from the United States hesitate to
make a change while the war lasts
are without foundation. With these
misunderstanding cleared UP the
present war conditions even become
an added inducement to settlement in
any part of the provinces of western
Canada, inasmuch as wal prices and
keen demands for all manner Of farm
products afford the farmer a special
opportunity to make money"

wheat growing, oat growing, barley
growing, cattle raising, dairying and
mixed farming. / could have told
him of an Ottawa (Canada) syndicate
that had a yield Of 100 bushels of
oats per acre from their farm at Vain
wright and from 60 acres of wheat
field they threshed over so bushels per
acre. These yields, while phenomenal,
were repeated in many portions of
western Canada. 1t was interesting to
inform him that the average yield of
spring wheat in Saskatchewan was
25.16 bushels per acre; Manitoba, 26.3
bushels; in Alberta, 36.16 bushels,
and over the three provinces there was
a total average of over 30 bushels per
acre.
THE immense crop that has just
been harvested has put millions of dol
lars in the hands of the farmers, and
the work of distribution through the
regular channels of trade has already
begun. Millions of bushels of grain
are still in the hands of the farmers,
which that there is a vast store
OF realizable wealth that will be stead
lily going into circulation, benefitting
the thousands who are depedent in
directly on the basic industry of the
province for their livelihood.
The mock prosperity that rested on
the insecure foundation of inflated real
estate values has passed away, and in
its place the corner stone of the coun-
try's sound financial future is being
built.
THE trust and mortgage companies,
the large implement concerns and the
wholesale merchants all tell the same
story today of marked improvement
In their business. The farmers and
others are meeting their just dues and
paying off debts that in many cases
have been long overdue. Collections
are better today than they have been
since the most prosperous days of our
history, and obligations are being met
freely and promptly.

LIoUoR MEN AND LARoR-

ENSNH
Before the convention of the Ameri.
can Federation of Labor there was a
demand by the liquor interests or or
CARNATIONS identified with them. that
the American Federation of Labor
Inc up with the liquor men in their
fight against prohibition. Mr.. Charles
Stelzle, writing in the Continent, saws
that the atmosphere of the convention
was so decidedly unfriendIy to such
action that the liquor men were
easily persuaded to drop the entire
question. Throughout the conyen.
ton" continues MIR. Steele, the LIQUOR
men were strangely quiet, refraining
from taking any part in any of the
discussions, for fear of arousing the
enmity of anybody whose opinions
might be controverted.
"A mass meeting for the purpose of
discussing the relation of labor to the
saloon was held ON the first Sunday
afternoon of the convention, and was
attended by about one thousand per-
sons. With the use of government
statistics and logic which appealed to
the workers, facts were presented
which battered down the of
the liquor men that the abolition of
the saloon would create a labor panic.
The statement that the labor men
In England had not only organized a
labor officials temperance fellowship
with which the best leaders were iden-
tined, but that bartenders, brewery
workers and others in the liquor in
dustry were not considered worth or
ganizing by the British Trades con
gress, had a marked effect on the au,
dience."

THERE'S A MORAL,

From the Sacramento Union comes
the following: A well-known resident
OF Sacramento the other day met on
a train two men and their wives who
had come from Kansas seeking farms
n California. He asked them why
they did not investigate the country
around Sacramento, as it offered many
opportunities for the h-ome-seeker.
They replied that they had spent
three days in this city and had been
much impressed with what they saw.
But" said one of them, Sacramento
has entirely too many saloons for
US, and the farmers roads are lined
with roadhouses. so we decided to go
elsewhere to locate.'
