LEGINSKA'SGE
WINS TRIUMPH AT
NATIONAL CONCERT

Again LeginSka charmed a. large
audience in washington yesterday
afternoon. She woVe q spell around
her hearers that made one forget the
mere achievement Of this marvellous
little pianist, and that carried one OF
to lands of illusion, lands OF fancy
whose pictures she painted and whose
dramas she told In tone-poems Of
deepest emotion and OF great beauty.
The concert was the fourth in
the Ten Star Series at the National
TheAter. 1t served to emphasiEe the
fact that Leginsks must be rated A.
an individualist, and II is IN inter
probation, in dramatic portrayal. that
her powers are most telling.
Il Mastery Interpreter.
Possessed OF q mastery and
breadth in execution that responds to
her every command, this little black
robed figure, as she bends over the
keyboard, makes OF her instrument a
varied orchestral palette through
which she reads eloquence and deep
meaning into every phrase. She has
something to tell through each com
position, and she holds one eXpectant
every minute as to how she will
tell It.
The spirit OF LIszt was the domi-
nant note in the program, for be-
SIDES his great sonata in B minor and
the "Maseppa" study, Leginska added
as eneores his "CampAnella" and the
eighth Hungarian Rhapsody. It was
like q potent tragic recitative her an
nouncement OF the opening passages
OF the sonata. Tone and interpreta-
-
perhaps they combine in lyric mo-
ments OF surprising loVeliness that
bear the imprint OF a "Benedicite,"
or in dramatic devastation told in dis
sonAnt chords or in the ever recur-
rent dark notes OF Fate. The bells
OF the "Campanella" she held like
fluid crystals, cold and clear: while
the Rhapsody was q creation In itself.
Gives Clear DeIIneation.
How far a course has the plano run
in modern music? The oriental fan
tasy, 'Islamey." by BaIakirsW, was
again all orchestral in its tone tex
ture. The art OF the player brought
into It . real atmosphere at odd times,
q background OF such rich hber and
tempestuous movement that Il seem
ed as mad and as intricate as
"SchsheraZade," but II was also
AbundAntly pianistic and was given
with q mastery clear delineation.
At the close OF her Chopin "Etude"
in z major, there was an impressive
silence. The etuds was beautifully
colored, and her gradations were de-
liEhtful, while in the SPolonaIse" and
even in the dainty figures OF the
Scarlatti numbers the dranatist spoke
with individual force and accent. The
RubinStsin ''Etude" for the left hand
was massive In It's broad curves and
sweep. But fret and last the drama
tic imagination OF this tiny artist OF
great powers IL the thing that leaves
n lasting Impress on the mind.

mines because of the overloaded condi-
ton of the smelters, but there will not
be the attendance of diminishment of
work in the mines. Men taken off Of
production will be put on development,
where increased forces can be used to
excellent purpose in getting ahead with
preparedness. The policy of the large
producers in this respect will help the
small producers of custom ore, but
cannot do away with all Of the trouble
that ore overburdened smelters pre-
sent for them.

be a little lower this month. Their
shares are bargains at present prices,
with steady increase in ore resources
and in efficiency of reduction plants
adding TO the value of their securities,
both at this time and looking to the
future. Greatly improved labor and
political conditions in the state, Civ
ing much promise of permanency, are
also important factors tending to

BOWIE LIVELY 4
OFFERS GOOD
|NDUCEMENT

Bowie is rapidly growing. more i'm
portant and faster than even home
folks appreciate, and in that respect ii
is up to the same home folks as a com
mercial organization to make, promote
and encourage industry.
AS an illustration of what can be
done in this direction, about year ago
Dana T. Miner conceived the idea of
making Bowie a distributing point for
carload shipments of merchandise. and
went after the business and at present
has worked that business up to more
than worth while, in fact it has grown
so rapidly he was unable to take care
of it with his other business, and was
forced to separate it from his mer-
chandise business, and turned il over N
]. f. Franks, who runs it now as the
J. r. Franks Forwarding company who
reports he is handling 10 to Is car
loads of goods a month all of which is
stored and reshipped from Bowie to
the surrounding towns, Bowie being
SO situated that it holds an advantage
at shipping and distributing point.
Again the creating of a freight divi-
sion at Bowie has added more than a
little TO the financial business here. at
the present time the Southern Pacific
Co. pays out to the railroad men here
about $4,000 a month. and many of
the men are receiving their pay at the
other end of the division.
The pay roll to employees of the S. 2.
hotel alone runs about 81 900 in addi-
ton to the RAILROAD men. and the in
come at the S. P. eating house amounts
to about 10000 service checks a month
at the tables and lunch counter. and
if these averaged so cents apiece. as
they no doubt will, it would make $40
600 income per month for that hotel
alone.
In addition to all the above is the
monthly pay for the men on the Ari-
IONA Eastern railroad.
What Bowie Needs
The first and most important is n
Waterworks system to which can be
added an electric lighting plant. ard
soon after an ice and refrigeration
plant, while all local capital and bust
ness men know and see this opDortun-
ity, they all seem busily engrossed in
their own business, and have to use all
their capital in that way, while this
important feature that is retarding the
growth of the town is going begging.
and remains for outside capital to take
hold of, and it will be paying invest
ment right from the start.

smelters and other works, equipment
and supplies, pay taxes on $6S,S6S,-
l94.67, or 64.3 per cent of all county
taxes If to this be added the railroads,
street railways, water companies, gas,
electric and power companies, tele-
graph and telephone lines and tho
banks, not including property owned by
them but not used for company pur-
poses, such as city lots, store, and Of
flee buildings, etc, it will be seen that
the corporations of the county pay on
an assessment of s73,9SO,S1696 or 1928
per cent of the whole. Thus it is evil
dent that not more than rs per cent of
the county taxes is borne by the indi-
vidual residents.
Cattle Pay Share
In computing the amount invested in
stock raising in the county it is diff
cult to reach an exact amount. Not
including the value of the lands used
for grazing or the improvements at
ranch headquarters, nor the wages that
are annually paid, but taking only the
assessed valuation is found to be 81
1929 This assessment includes all
stock within the county for whatever
purpose used. Least important is
sheep raising, valued at only s14,65S,
and next above goats, valued at
s2S,164
As only patented land is included in
the assessment roll, it is impossible to
| reach exact figures as to investments
in agriculture. Lands outside of the
city and towns, exclusive of improve
ments. are assessed at $2,330, 35406
This includes grazing lands as well as
farming lands and shows the invest
| ment in agricultural pursuits to be
close behind stock raising in capital

At first there was but one small fur
mace in Mule Gulch to smelt the ore.
Later larger plants were installed and
finally a smelter sufficient for all pur-
poses at that time. although only the
richness; of the ore made it so.
Later that smelter was scrapped.
This followed the coming of the rail-

WARNING WORD SOUNDS; COWS
 MUST BE SAVED

J. B. Cook, member of the executive committee of the State Council of Defense, at a meeting of the committee held here today, sounded note of warning against the practice that has been too gen. eral ln Arizona by shipping out grain, hay and other horse and stock feed, sold by farmers who have grasped unthinkingly at the high price offered by exporting dealers
 MT. Cook is head of the Pacific Creamery company, which is now canning enormous quantities of milk especially intended for the use of the soldiers in the field and for general eXportation abroad. Though the Salt River valley has an enormous acre. age of alfalfa and other forage crops, it was found that the shipments al- ready made seriously imperil the dairy industry, which now is doubly important and which must be main- tained, to provide for the very evil dent worlds shortage of milk pro- ducts during after the war.
 The war will end with probably not 25 per cent of Europe's dairy cattle surviving and with a. very large degree of depletion both of range cattle and dairy stock within the United States. It, therefore, is doubly important that the dairy in- dustry in the agricultural valleys of Arizona be maintained on as nearly normal level as possible, and that the present reckless sales. of hay and feed and also dairy cows be diminished that the cows may be carried over the winter.

One of the herds at the fair this year is owned by Cottrell and Packard of Tempe, the other herd is exhibited by Scharbaur and Edison of Midland, Tex Every animal of both herds are in first class show condition. which goes to show that fine beef cattle can be raised if cattlemen are careful to breed to type Cattlemen should not fail to investigate these herds as it will give them some idea of type, so much needed at the present time, and which is being de- veloped along the Hereford lines by the more progressive stockmen. Cottrell and Packard carried off first for aged bull, first on bull of two and under three. first on senior yearling bull They also show the prize winning bull calf, prize winning aged COW, and prize winning aged bull.
