gotten into the $4,000 class and they
arc encouraging others to do likewise.

COMMISSIONER HOWE
 TELLS 0F MINING
 DEVELOPMENT HERE
Member Tax Commission Re views What he Saw on His Recent Visit to Cochise County

Charles R. Howe, one of the mem bers of the State Tax Commission, and who formerly lived in Cochise county, has returned to Phoenix, his head quarters, after a visit to Pima, Co- chise and Graham counties. Accord ing tO the Phoenix Gazette he has the following to say regarding his trip:
 With the exception of the livestock industry, which has been somewhat affected by the drouth, the other in dustries in the southern part of the state are prospering. The camp of Bisbee will soon take on a new ap- peardnce. The mining company has a large quantity of low grade ore on Sacramento hill to be mined and in order to reach the ore the top of the hill has to be removed. This is being done and the top of the hill is being dumped into the rayines and guiches, so that soon there will be large area of level land in Bisbee where the gulches now are.
 "Bisbee will soon have in operation a mill for the handling of lead, which will be the only one of its kind in the state. The mill is now being built by the Administrations company for its own use and that of the Denn-Ari- Zona company. It is being built on the Denn property, but will be used principally by the Shattuck company.
 An experiment is about to be tried at Douglas in which the hopes of Tombstone are placed. A small mill for the handling of manganese ore from the Tombstone mine is being erected at Douglas and if it is found that the ore can be handled profitably the nine will continue to be operated and the Douglas mill largely enlarged to handle the output. At present the Tombstone mill is operating one shift a day.
 ''The Mascot mine in Cochise, which has been operated under lease by the American Smelling & Refining com pany and which was recently closed down, will be reopened shortly by the owners of the mine and the several. hundred miners in that locality will be put back to work.
 Gentlemen in the Wilcox and Gila Valley districts state that the situa ton there is serious on account of the drOuth and that some cattle have died. The loss will be considerably larger unless the situation is relieved soon by rain.
 '|Fhe irrigated section of Graham county is i nfine condition and the farmers are expecting to do well with theT crops this year. They do well with their alfalfa, and the crop is very fine" The Graham county ir- rigation district, according to the com- missioner, is second only to Salt River valley, but in the course of time will probably be Outdistanced by Yuma couEty. which has a much larger acreage capable of irrigation.

BACkACHE IS A
 WARNING
Bisbee People Should Not Neglect
 Their Kidneys.

BackacEe is often natures most ire quenj signal of weakened kidneys. To cure the pains and aches, to re- move the lameness when it arises from weakened kidneys, you must reach the cause.-the kidneys. If you have pain through tke small of your back, urin- ary disorders, headaches dizzy spells, or are nervous and depressed, start treating the kidneys with a tested kid ney remedy.
 Doans Kidney Pills have been proved good and are especially for weak kidneys. Doan's have been used in kidney trouble for over 90 years. Read Bisbee testimony.
 Mrs. John Gohrig, Brewery Gulch, says: About two years ago I had a constant, nagging pain across the small of my back. My kidneys were weak, too. As Doan's Kidney Pills were always so highly recommended, decided to try them. Doan's soon cured me and haven't had any kid ney trouble since"
 Price 60c, at all dealers Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy-get DosH's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Cohrig had. Foster-Milburn Co.,, Mfgrs., Buffalo. \. Y Adv.

GRAIN

CHICAGO, April 16.-Pronounced weakness developed in the grain mark cts today, chiefly. owing to good crop conditions. Corn closed heavy, Is to 2ss net to lower, with May $1.27 and July l.471k to $l.f7H. Oats lost 1 to Is G1A cent, and provisions 3 cents to 12615 cents. Some authorities as- cribed part O. the weakness to unfav- orable war news, but this view met with vigorous dissent Indications pointed to some decrease in acreage, but not sufficient to affect materially the size of the yield. On the other hand, eastern domestic demand was reported as the poorest in many months. Weather and crop news had most to do with the downward course of oats.
 Announcement was not made until after trading hours that number 3 white oats had been made deliverable at 11k cents under standard. and that dealings in new style contracts from June and July would begin tomorrow.
