SEARCHING FOR LANDS
 F0R RETURNING MEN

c. l.. Seagraves, of the Department of the Interior, is in Phoenix on a mission for Franklin K. Lane in the matter of finding farm lands for re- turning soldiers. A meeting of the commercial bodies of the capital city was held and to point out the advan- tages of that section, in the event that a larger supply of water could be ob- tained. Like on all other occasions, the Phoenician cannot appreciate the importance of other sections of the state as possible for farming, and therefore MT. Seagraves has only been enlightened so far as the Salt River valley is concerned.
 It is quite probable that MT. Sea- graves will come to Mohave county and look over the possibilities of not only this section, but all of northern Arizona. Every section has it's ad- vantages, some of them offering lands where almost every kind of farm pro- ducts may be raised, while others will bear but one crop of spuds or wheat each year.
 Mohave county has several millions acres of land that could be" brought under cultivation by the construction of large dams in the Canyon of the Colorado, the water being brought out by pumping into the hill levels and distributed over several large valleys The power for pumping would be de- veloped by hydro electric, and enough power could be obtained from artificial falls to run railroads and all classes of machinery in the state. Uphet' proper conditions the dams could be built within a short time and the lands of the valleys put in shape to care fo1 thousands of men willing to reclaim farm acreage. These valleys will raise all kinds of fruits, cotton, spuds wheat, sorghum and cane, as well as every class of garden truck and farm product. Owing to the fact that about 15 inches of rain falls here year. ly small amount of water for irriga- tion would be necessary. The Colorado river will sooner or later have to fur nish the water supply for the recla- nation of the valleys of northern Ar izona and it would be better to start the project now than later on.

TOTAL SUBSCRIPTIONS 2 ID WAR WORK CAUSE

Total subscriptions to the United War Work campaign were $203, ,179,- 03S, or $32,679,03S in excess of the amount originally asked by the seven war relief organizations for their work during demoblization of the army and navy, according to an offic- ial announcement tonight by the na- tional campaign committee. This ia the largest sum ever raised as an out right gift in the history of the world
 According to the committee, every state in the Union, except Pennsy!~ .vania and Minnesota, exceeded its quota, and confidence was expressed that these states will be lover the top" when returns from Philadelphia ami Minneapolis are in.' Philadelphia, a "war chest" city, has not yet made a2 appropriation to the fund while Min IneapoHs postponed it's drive until next month.
 Fourteen states pledged 150 per cent or more of their quotas, Arizona nead- ing the list with PAS per cent. Per centages of other high states were: Delaware, 230; Texas, 222; Louisiana and New Mexico each 1S6.
 A feature of the campaign was the manner in which men of the army and navy, and the inhabitants of foreign countries contributed to the fund. The army and navy gave $61S,346; China, $1 100000; Russia, $11,OOO; Cuba, $275,OOO; Japan, $36O,000; Mexico, $114,0O0; Porto Rico, $S2,00O.
 New York state went lover the top'' with a percentage of 102, when the continuation drive" in New York city closed with the city's $35,000,000 quota subscribed.
 John D. Rockefeller and John D, Rockefeller, Jr., who had underwritten lacking subscriptions to the amount of $1 ,233 ,6S9,> were called on to contrib ute $370,097, to make up the total when reports showed a subscription of $34,629,903.

 "Flu" About Over
 We hope the "FIu" is about over with here, all the patients are on a fair way to recovery, and there are no new ones at Valentine, though it has made it's appearance among the Mexicans at Crozier. Three are down now, none seem to be seriously sick, but every precaution is being taken to prevent it's spreading. School Still Closed

LOREN R0F|NOT NOW
 SECOND LIEUTENANT

It. Loren Rofinot writes letter from France dated Nov. 2, nine days before the Armistice was signed.
 q have been waiting for some time for letter, but not a sign of one as yet, so here goes for little news from France. 1 can not tell you all l want to, but will tell you all 1 can without going out of bounds.
 First of all, Loren is Second Lieu tenant now, have been here at an officers training school for six Weeks and was made a Second Lieut.. Nov. 1st l have at last gained what 1 have been driving at for sometime. 1 do not know where 1 will go from here, but think it will be to the front some place. 1 sure hope so for 1 want to get tangled up with Fritz just to see how hard and how many times 1 can hit him before he falls.
 This is some country, every thing is so ancient the few places 1 have been. All the buildings have been built from one to two hundreds of years ago. The people seem to be so far behind the times, for instance, instead of hitching their horses up side by side they string three or four out behind each other, and it seems to me that the women do as much or more than the men. I don't think the people ever die of old age over here, 1 have seen old men and women running about that I will bet they are hundred years old if they are day.
 As soon as you get this letter please write me a nice long letter and tell me all the news of the state, also send me Nevoy's address at once for l might be able to look him up some day while 1 am knocking around.
 must close for this time.
 Love to all your brother.

 FOR SAN FRANCISCO

Thomas A. Edison is quoted as say ing that an era of great prosperity was coming after the peace congress has done its work, if the business men will but keep their heads and take ad- vantage of their opportunity. The only thing that will prevent prosper, ous times is lack of confidence in the government by the big business mer of the nation.
 Our government is capable of talk. ing care of every financial problem that presents itself and our farmers and mines will furnish enough pro ducts to feed and furnish the world Let nothing depress business anc everything will boom as never before in the history of the world. .,, The nations of the earth look to the Uni ted States for help and we cannot give it to them by bascking into the slough of depression.

DOORWAY TO OFFICE
 SHATTERED WITH BLOOD

J. R. Thompson, manager of the Postal Telegraph Co.,, was somewhat surprised yesterday morning to find the windows and doorway leading to his office splattered with blood, the gore being so heavy on the cement floor in the entrance, that tracks could be readily discerned in it.
 The source of the blood is not known but it is known that it came there during the night. It spurted some what inasmuch as there were drops five or six feet up from the ground, and possibly was from a cut.
