0|L SYNDICATE BUYS TRACT IN
 CHINO VALLEY

Negotiations, which have been pending For some time, were closed here today whereby the newly form ed Arizona Oil Syndicate of Phoenix secures approximately 4,000 acres of land located in the very heart of the Chino valley oil fields, situated near Jerome Junction.
 The deal was closed by the Arizona Oil Syndicate, and J. c. Heslet, who is in control of the Chino Valley Oil company the first operating company to enter the Chino Valley fields.
 Something like s500,000 is involved in the deal, it is reported, which was transacted on a cash and stock basis
 The land acquired takes in all land surrounding the well of the Chino valley company, which was sold out right to the Arizona Oil Syndicate
 The closing of this important deal means the exploitation by the Syndi- cate of the valley on a very eXten- sive scale.
 Before the Arizona Oil Syndicate closed the transaction with MT. He's let, it had previously acquired some thing like 1000 acres and with the purchase of the additional holdings, the syndicate is in control of d vast area of land.
 Elaborate plans are now under way by the Syndicate, for the financing of holding company which will ex ploit the valley on scale never be- fore undertaken in this state.
 Some of the most prominent men in Arizona are interested in the Syn dicate and with the newly acquired holdings, new blood will enter into the enterprise.
 The Arizona Oil Syndicate believes that the possibilities in the Chino valley are of a nature that will inter est the oig oil men of the country It is said that some prominent Cali fornia men, men high in oil circles on the coast, are interested in the local company.
 There has been a wave Of activity in the Chino Valley field from some time past but it was of a nature where no great amount of publicity was given to the action. Severa companies have been formed, but the Chino Valley company is, at the pres ent time, the only company operating They have a rig on their property and have sunk a well something likt | 2,000 feet and there is every indica- i tion. it is reported, that the land i. oil bearing.

Insurance Department Will
 Allow Big Corporations Do Bombardment Trade in the Sunkissed State

Since war has been declared by the United States, and fearful of the work of enemy agents in the destruction Of property in this country, numerous applications have been received by the insurance department of the state corporation commission from compa- nies desiring to write explosion and war risk insurance. Two companies also applied for permission to wIite bombardment insurance.
 The following companies have been granted permission by the insurance department to write this class of in- surance, in addition to the other classes of insurance which they have previously written in this state:
 The Insurance Company Of North America, explosion insurance; the Aetna Insurance Company, explosion and war risk insurance; the German American Insurance Company, explo- sion and war risk insurance; the Ger man.

Hot Stuff s Home Lives up to Name
 Of Castle Owner

While Hot Stuff, painIessly ex- tracted from the soil of the Celes- tiaI Kingdom and transplanted to Phoenix years ago, was peacefully sleeping at Mesa, dreaming of the land where money is built like doughnuts, the paIatial emporium in Phoenix wherein he maintained his stock in trade-or so much of it as was burnable-was waited to the Chinese seventh heaven via the smoke route. Loss $50.
 Hot Stuff, and that is his sure enough name, though his Chinese forebears did not appreciate it's ap- proprateness when they handed it down from a long and untarnished washline to him, is something of a valley character, once famed for his addiction to ardent spirits. His residence is situated in the rear of a Chinese store on East Monroe south side-between First and Sec ond. Originally constructed for the delicate purpose of quickly remov- ing animals from life to the butch CT shop, it's outer battIements were and are of adobe, that unburned and unburnable brick of the southwest. The roof consisted of time tried wood and vanished shortly after the fire of unknown origin got in it's work of purifcation.
 1t was a hot stuff fire in the business center, and since that seething hive of brains and busi- ness, The Arizona Republican building, was nearby, large and enjoyable run to the conflagration was had by the unsoaped, on foot and horseback, and the aristocracy in automobiles.

bOTH SEED AND
 LAbORFOUND TO
 BE SHORT HERE
Volunteers to Assist in Im-
 portant Work Here Are Asked to Send in Word to Council of Defense

As the net result of the compilation of statistics from the mass of data collected at the food census drive meetings on Wednesday night it is all ready definitely ascertained that there is a great shortage of labor in the Salt River valley and a very serious short age of seed. So far those working at compilation of the statistics have found in nine districts that 106 farm CTS report the need of 445 men to work in the fields for periods varying from eight to 20 days. These same farmers report that they will need 3,9S5 pounds of seed, principally seed for milo and corn Only four farmers so far show ing in the tabulation report having seed for sale and but one of them any amount of seed really worth while The single instance of farmer with seed to sell so far encountered in compiling statistics has 600 pounds of corn
 The figures so far tabulated are from nine of the 26 district meetings. They were compiled under direction of w. A. Barr, government investigator and advisor. Some idea of the task may be secured from the fact that two girls working all day yesterday only finished the figures on labor needs and seed for nine of the 26 meetings. This also gives an idea of what a great mass of important work was really accomplished on Wednesday night.
 MT. Barr will continue along the line of first finding out the labor and seed needs in all the districts so that when he has this information com plete he will be able to advise in an authoritative fashion and those on the farm committees aiding in the work of securing the maximum crop results in this valley may know what are the leading problems to be solved.
