The man woman who buys Liberty Bond is se- cured patriot that IS to he she loans the money the government cnc. the only chance to lose is for the Kaiser to win, but the woman who gives what they the Red Cross is the patriot for they are helping humanity and Christianity with reward re- other than the satisfying of their conscience that they have helped suffering and wanting humanity The work being done this week raising Red Cross fund is the grandest and most glorious work the world has seen and happy must be the woman who has given all he or she could for such a noble cause The contributors to the Red Cross benefits and funds show the real. red booded Americans not the Liberty Bond buyers speculative and the other hmanitar ian, but both are in noble and glorious cause

STATE LAND INCOME
 IS OVER $I32.0O

IffofNiS, June Z5.-MOre th3h sl32. 900 is the annual income at the present time of Arizona from her pub lie lands which are leased to private parties. Since the creation of the SC lecting and leasing division of the state land office. Of which division Ben R. Clark is chief. there has been selected from Arizcna's broad ex. panse of mountain and plain some , a.653 900 acres.
 Previously this land was open do main and could be used by anyone without permission or payment, and was ranged at large by cattle and sheep. Since the selection of nearly three million acres as public land, however, it is necessary for parties previously using this land or by oth CTS. to secure a lease from the state land department There is no bus fer department in the state house than this one. and through the busi. ness transacted there, the state de. rives an income of large proportions and one that is increasing at the rate of $20, 900 a month
 No single lease of state land is made for more than $40 acres. but since the organization of this de partment about two years ago there have been 11,OSl applications receiv- ed or leases of state land. of which 6.l6i have been executed to private parties.
 Arizona now collects minimum of three cents an acre for leases on l. l0i.000 acres of chool lands and l. 100,000 acres Of institutional lands. total of 2.s44. 900 acres under lease which brings an annual revenue of $s2.0o0. Some idea of the maepi- tude of the business transacted by this division is contained in the re port just made by MT. Clark 10 Vim A. Moeur. state land commissioner. which shows that new leases or state lands are being closed at the rate Of about 1000 each month.
 In addition to the revenue of S92.. 06o annually for 2.644. 600 acres of state and institutional lands under lease, there are other school sections located in the forest reserves for which leases the government collects and turns over to the state. These amount to $40.000 a year at present making total revenue of sl32.0
 During the month of May. just past the selection and leasing department collected in leases and fees the sum Of $l0,9ls. The whole revenue last month Of the state land office was about $S5.000 When the state lands are all selected. the leasing depart ment will be called upon to admin ister some 10.s0O,0 acres and which will bring in an annual revenue many times in excess of the present one

A PAPER MILL FOR UNCLE
SAM.

Uncle Sam has one Of the big
print shops Of the country. The
government printing Office uses
about fifteen thousand tons Of
print paper annually. The un-
preeedented advance in the price
Of paper has increased enormous
IL the cost of operating the Office
To meet this situation a bin has
been reported in the house pro
viding that the government build
and operate its own paper mill
In view OF the fact that the
government already owns an am
pie lumber supply and the water
power sites necessary for the sue
eessful operation Of paper mills,
the project seems both feasible
and a measure of economy.
1t has the further advantage
that il would give publicity TO the
cost Of paper making, and thus
would tend to maintain a stand
ard of prices The absence Of any
such public standard leaves the
way open TO excessive charges
which eventually the newspaper
reading public-whieh means
2 aetieally all the people-has to
bear.
