Mormons Devote Tithing Funds
 to New Liberty Loan.

The Mormon church today an- nounced that $25O, 900 of the tith- ing funds of the organization would be used to purchase liberty loan bonds. This is the first time in the history of the Mormon church that the tithe funds have eyer been diverted for purposes outside the church.
 Twelve thousand Latter Day Saints raised their right hands in the tabernacle this afternoon when t h announcement was made and approved the action or heads of the church. At the morning session of the confer ence, Presiding Bishop C. W. Nibley gave effective promotion to the liberty bond campaign when he said:
 Dent let your husbands sep arate themselves from their money for something they know nothing about. If you have any surplus money. and many of you will have it in these times of prosperity, buy a liberty bond. On that you cannot lose. It is good for all time."
 Bishop Nibley had himself pre- viously subscribed $1OO,0OO.- Arizona Republican.

Sour Stomach.

Eat slowly, masticate your food thoroughly, abstain from meat for a few days and in most cases the sour stomach will disappear. If it does not. take one of Cham berlain's Tablets immediately af- ter supper, Red meats are most likely to cause sour stomachs and you may find it best to cut them out. Adv.

State Vii Lend Money.

M. P. Peterson has returned from Phoenix where he went with Judge D. J. Thomas, cashier of the Merchant and Stockgrowers Bank of Holbrook, to see about obtaining loan from the state for the purpose ot finishing tke Lyman reservoir ano ditches.
 Messrs. Peterson and Thomas spent one day at the capital city and were in consultation for sev- eral hours with he state land board and commissioners.
 Lamar Cobb, formerly state en- gineer was sent 10 St. Johns to look over the project and to as- certain whether the estimates made on the project are correct, according to estimate made by engineer Hinderlider.
 We are informed that MT. Cobb found all as represented and the estimates correct and we now have assurance that the money will be forthcoming at once.
 This loan means much to the Lyman Company, to St. Johns and Apache County, and will also add greatly to the wealth of our state. There is some of the fin est lands of the state under this project. Tn farmers of St. Johns have been hard hit by the numerous streaks of hard luck that have befallen them, but they are jubilant now because they think they can see daylight. Let US all hope with them and put our shoulder to the wheel and push along.

The corn was raised without cultivation or irrigation. and measured 12 feet in height and the ears were ' feet from the ground. This speaks we'll of the soil and climate of St. Johns, and shows what could be done in the farming line with or dinary cultivation.

New Railroad Will Tap
 Great Coal Belt.

Tapping the second largest coa
 producing district in Arizona anC
 opening what will he the first pro-
 ducing coal mines in the state, .
 railroad is now under construction
 from Holbrook to Cluffs Cienega
 in the White Mountains.
 "A construction gang with 200 mules is now at work on the road
 bed of this railroad," said c. M. Zander, member of the state tax commission. yesterday. MT. Zan- der has just returned from an ex- tended trip in the northern part of the state.
 ''The road is to be a standard guage," said MT. Zander, and is generally supposed to be built by the McGaffey Lumber compa- ny. They expect to complete the road by this time next year when it will be ready to take out mill lions of feet of lumber yearly.
 Arizona has the largest un- broken timber belt in the United States, and this road will tap the finest part of that belt in the White Mountains, and under gov ernment regulation will never be- come exhausted. There is now being sawed by five big mills at Flagstaff and Williams fifty mil lion feet annually. The govern ment experts estimate that there is enough timber in that belt in this state to saw two hundred million feet of lumber annually perpetually, and this road now under construction will make 1t possible to reach that maximum. It also develops one of the finest dry farming belts in the state.
 Just north of Holbrook they have a real oil excitement" add ed Mir. Zander. ''The district there has been passed upon by sure enough geologists who con- slder the district warrants the ex- penditure of money sufficient to go down 5000 feet. A company is now being formed which is be- lieved to be strong enough finan- cially to undertake that develop ment.
 'Holbrook is growing rapidly. At St. Johns progress is being made in reconstructing the Ly- man dam. Land under this res ervoir will be in cultivation next year at which time St. Johns will begin it's long-deferred develop ment and growth.
 At St. Johns, Apache county is erecting a little gem of a court house on a hill overlooking the town. It is being built of white obtained a short dis tance away and from lumber saw ed in the White mountains tWen- ty-fve miles away and delivered at the court house at $27 a thous- and feet. The building is going up in the most substantial and economical manner under the able watchfulness of the board of su- pervisors.
