Bank Increases Capital

At a special meeting of tn,
 stockholders of the Mer
 chants 6 Stockgrowers banl held in the banking house ol
 Monday, at which all of lh' stock was represented, it wa determined by a unanimous vote to increase the capita stock from $50, to $1OO, 900. At the same time the board of directors were auth orized to take all necessary steps to enter the Fedora. Reserve System.
 This action on the part o1 the stockholders of this in- stitution is a step in the right direction, and is in keeping with the suggestion of President Wilson, made some time ago, that it is the patriotic duty of all state banks to enter the reserve system and in this way to present a. united financial front in assisting the gov ernment in it's colossal task of financing the present war.
 Under the law the present stockholders have the privi- lege of subscribing for the new stock in proportion to the present holdings of each, and the indications are that a very small amount, if any, of the new issue will reach the general public. The suc- cess of this institution and the prosperity it has enjoyed from it's organization makes a we'll satisfied group of stockholders and they have indicated their intention of exercising their right of further investment. This in- crease of capital and the fin ancial strength of it's stock holders makes one Of the strongest banks in this part of the state and we bespeak for them a greater and con- tinued success.

cLUFF CIENEGA COMMENT
BY A. w. ATHERToN

Those who love a scene of activity. or who wish to take part in big doings, ought to come here; also, it is ideal as a summer resort, though as yet unused as such.
 In passing, let me note that "Cienega" is Apache for a marshy meadow.
 The one here is some forty acres in extent and has a fine stream flowing through it. The vista is lovely as you look down and across from among the great pines.
 At the eastern end of this cienega clearing is progressing rapidly. Here are the sites for big mill and the power plant. Cement and gravel are coming in fast and the concrete founda- tions will be laid very soon.
 Meanwhile the small mill is buzzing steadily six days week. Already it has cut lumber for the big cook-shack, some fifteen houses for the men, and a large store and office building, all of which are practically complete. Broad plank runways also ex- tend from the mill out onto the clearing where an extensive modern lumber yard is started and growing rapidly.
 The survey of the townsite is just finished. There are twenty six blocks of eight big lots each running from the meadow north along the road to Pinetop. It is really a most beautiful natural park. The town will have cleo tricity. perfect water and sani- tation. The lots. however, are not for sale. Two bungalows are now occupied. one by Con- struction Engineer Atkins and the other by Boss Carpenter Sherman.
 The outpost grading camp of of the Apache railway is scant ten miles away, and moving up Pm told. They've sent work for us to get ready to greet them about July Is. Bluff or no bluff, we'll be here.
 J. w. O'Bryne. in charge of the grading. is proving highly efficient. He is an educated man, tactful and very executive. He says the standards of Arizona are higher than those of other states he has visited. It is con- predicted that MT. O'Bryne wili make this camp measure up to the Arizona stan dards.
 People wishing to see this en- vironment can take the Fort l Apache stage to Cooley's Wells and ride over from there on the mail auto. It's a mighty pretty trip.

Senator Shafroth Is Interested

A few days ago ex-Governor G. D. Neiklejohn, president of the Holbrook Oil Company. re- ceiyed a letter from Senator John F. Shafroth, of Colorado. in re- sponse to a telegram sent him in reference to the oil land leasing bill, now before congress. The letter is self-explanatory and is published below:
 United States Senate,
 Washington. D. C., June 5. Hon. Geo. D. Meiklejohn, Hol-
 brook, Arizona:
 My Dear Meikleiohn-I am in receipt of your telegram of June 1st. The conference committee has not met yet to consider the leasing bill, but perhaps will do so some time during this week. 1 will present your telegram to the committee. I Iprefer the pro- vision of the senate bill granting patent to one-fourth of the area contained in the permit issued by the government.
 It is very doubtful whether this measure will be considered finally for some weeks,
 Without best wishes I remain yours truly, John F. Shafroth.

Prof. Wheeler expects to spend most of the summer in Holbrook and vicinity.
 After a delay of several days the Apache Oil Com pany succeeded Wednesday in having it's oil drilling rig hauled to it's property south of town, where it will soon be placed in commission.

OIL NEWS BREVITIEs

Oil men have lately ob-
 served numerous antelope in
 the wooded section in the
 vicinity of the oil field. One
 party in search of a good
 location for a water well
 caught a glimpse of a noun
 tain lion not less than eight
 feet in length. The animal
 quickly disappeared among
 the trees and boulders.
 E. F. Peard, of New York,
 is expected to arrive in Hol-
 brook in a few days. He has,
 through his agent, secured a
 large acreage of choice oil
 land which will be developed speedily by New York capi- tai. MT. Peard paid Hol- brook a visit several months ago, at which time he an- nounced that he intended to become interested in the oil business here.
 R. R. Cook, formerly an attorney at Chloride, Ariz., and until recently engaged as salesman for an Albuquer- que wholesale establishment, passed through Holbrook Wednesday evening enroute to Mare Island, where he will enter the naval training school. He spent a few hours here, where he met a num- Der of old friends who are engaged in the oil business. MT. Cook stated that he re- gretted he could not remain in Holbrook and assist in the development of its oil re- sources.
 The Union Oil Company l has started enlarging and otherwise improving it's dis tributing plant in Holbrook. | The prospect for bringing in some wells in the local field | has possibly had something to do with starting this com pany upon the work of in- creasing it's facilities.
 The Standard Oil Company has just completed remodel ing it's distributing plant in Holbrook. Its facilities for handling the business have been greatly increased, and the local manager, H. G. states that he will be in position to take care of any oil that may be produced in this field within the next few months.
 Thomas Smart, of Jerome, aas been very busy this week making oil locations in the .olbrook oil field. He holds arge stock interests in at east two of the companies that are drilling for oil Tn Chino valley, but Holbrook ooks so attractive that he plans to shift a large share of his activities here.
