HOW ABOUT YOUR s54.5s?

It is significant that in the period the money in circulation in the United States has increased from $5 per capita 556 The explanation for this remarkable change less than five is found i'll the fact that the United States received billion dollars gold from Europe while Federal Reserve notes against Liberty Bonds have been issued the amount of than another billion dollars and during this period the bank deposits have been increased than three billion dollars by loans against Liberty Bonds.
 In view of these facts it is certain that there be reduction of wages in the future-and most tainy until the cost of living has subsded to such point that reduced payments for labor will give the work many of the necessities and comforts of life he is receiving for larger money wage.
 The conclusion. though it may be an unpleasant contemplate indicates that higher price levels here stay. In the face of this condition find every public utility in the United States conducting its affairs the narrowest margin known in its history. Food as has been shown in these articles is at least D per cent above what it six years Lighting companies and railways have made the very smallest advances in their charges of any business industry and local off cas have held up these enterprises the ground that they hound ny franchise and that a ter the prices will come down." Nevertheless the processes show that the results will be oth erwse. It is very reasonable presume that the rail roads and the wire lines restored to private will go into the markets to make tremendous purchases of material needed to bring their enterprises to their old standards.

SILVER MINING
Verde Copper News

Nerde Copper News
 That Arizona rich in silver that will well for development and production with silver at above the dollar mark is something that has been known for years That such could be developed prOttably with silver much below dollar per ounce has also been well known.
 There is nothing artificial about the boom in silver mining that is just beginning and may hope to see such revival of the production of the white metal will add largely the prosperity and wealth of the state
 Here in Havapa county there literally scores of properties that prospered when the value of silver fixed by its coinage ratio and there to hope that all these old mines will be revived with profit their additional employment for labor and the general prosperity that attends all successful mining operations
 On the speculative side, there is no form of invest ment that offers attractions to those of who like to 'take chance.' It is true that investments in mining stocks can hope to be thorough gambes in in undeveloped oil properties It is but fair say though that there will be far smaller percentage of failures in the search for silver than in the search for oil-and the profits. if smaller. will be lot surer.
 Just at this there Is investment that of fers certain returns than in developing sil property that is well managed and has the right kind of indications.

 While l was on my vacation in the mountains the people with whom l stayed killed young beef. They said that they would wait till I got rested before saying anything to me about preserving it.

BIRD MAN HERE

TUCSON, July 11.-There is an ex- pert bird man in Arizona. Not the kind that we see sailing in the Curtiss biplane but a man who is versed in bird lore and knows the ways of the feathered family.
 This man is Alexander Wetmore of the U 5. Biological Survey. who las come to Arizona from Washing ton to study reports of bird injury and bird life.
 Mir. Wetmore visited the University ( few days ago and told of his studies of the white wings which had been reorted to be doing damage to wheat fields His investigations showed that the damage was not great where wheat was harvested and stacked or threshed promptly, and he believes that the white wing is a greater friend than Toe 10 the farmer.
 He will visit the Gila valley. where farmers have reported to County Agent Ballantype that certain birds have been destructive 10 field crops or orchards. He has already visited a number of the counties with the 
 agents This week he is camped up in Pinery Canyon in the Chiricahuas. and from his camp he has just tramp ed on foot over the summit of the range to Paradise, studying birds as he went
 Mir. eWtmore was an Ornithologist who was assigned by the Biological Survey a few years ago 10 study the migrating habits of birds. Mir Wet more captured i,000 ducks along tine Great Salt Lake in Utah and placed band markers on their legs before liberating the birds. This was in 1914 to 1916, and about 175 of the and the bands sent 10 the Biological Survey al Washington. These ducks were killed as far south as the Mexi- can line and as far east as the Mis- sissippi river.
 One hundred snowy herons were also marked and liberated at tGreat Salt Lake. One of these was killed in April of this bring near Wilcox, cochise county, Arizona, and two others have been killed in Central America. These and other records of migration show the reason. for treaties between the United States and other countries covering the killing of birds of migratory habits Some of the injury reported by birds in Ari. zona is done by migratory birds pass ing through, which injury is neither serious nor long continuing.
