skeptical about the efficiency of So
liciting by mail. Logan curtly res
ponded: ut is the great law of aver
ages and experience which makes for
success in promotion finance. This
is so obvious and basic that every man
thirty years Of age ought to under
stand it without a surgical operation"
Soon Logan was able to shove under
Green's keen eye applicttions for
stock, with bankable paper attached,
from Tucson to Northern New York
State. Greene recognized at glance
the Tucson signatures, as well as one
of the John Hancocks" Of upper New
York, where he had been born and
lived during his early manhood.
Newspaper publicity and mail cam
paigns caused money to pour in like
water over Niagara; and within a
very short time there were in the
company's treasury several hundred
thousand dollars: and Cananea was
born.
Even at this late day this ''scoop
of THE OASIS will eventually open
the eyes of few wise people who
were then connected with the first
banking institution Of Nogales (since
reorganized) who were mystified
very greatly over Greene's sudden
rise.
Similar opportunities exist today
for the far seeing pioneers in Sonora.

TEMPE NORMAL SCHOOL

One Of the most far-reaching eff
fects of the great War, is the opening
of the eyes Of peoples. and govern
ments to the vital need of more and
better education of the youth. To
quote Professor Erskine of the A. e.
F. University, Education has be-
come the chief concern of statesmen :.
The new program Of educa-
ton will discipline the intellect and
will train special skills. It must be
broad enough to include all efforts that
enlarge the vision Of the people, Pro-
fessor Erskine reminds us that "The
new world into which we are now
entering will be, it seems. a world of
experts"
Recognizing the fact of this coming
demand for a newer and better system
of education, the Tempe Normal
School Of Arizona has planned and ar
ranged series OF special courses in
vocational training. For carrying for
ward the work Of these courses, the
state has provided q building and
equipment, the completeness of which
may be judged by the fact that its
total cost is over 100000. This build
ing with all it's apparatus and ma
chinery. the most complete of its
kind in the southwest. is a public in
stitution and is open to all young men
and young women Of Arizona. free of
any tuition charge except the general
registration tae Of $500. The instruc-
tors are all specialists In their respec-
tive lines Of work, and of broad ex-
perienee in teaching. Tempe Normal

School wishes to assist all those
students who have some hobby" or
special aptitude which they desire to
develop by special training, and par
ticularly invites the attention of high
school graduates who, just now, are
looking into the future.
Three types of vocational courses
are offered The first is a series of
tive year courses open to high school
graduates who desire to prepare to be
come departmental teachers or super
visors of Manuel Training, Home
Economics, Art, Agricultural, Kinder
garten Training or Commercial Sub
jects. These courses should be at
tractive because of the growing de-
mand for such teachers who command
the higher salaries.
I The second group of two year
courses in the special lines of work
| above mentioned are open to high
school graduates who do not wish to
become teachers but who wish to de-
vote the greater part of their time to
the vocational subject of their choice.
Third in order are the partial
courses offered for the benefit of
students of some degree of maturity
whose previous preparation may not
qualify them for admission to the reg
ular courses, but who wish to obtain
special training for self improvement
in wood working, machine shop or
machine design, or, in fact, almost any
line of vocational work in which a
class of four or five can be organized.
No special prerequisite are required
for entrance into these courses, and
students may enter at any time.
The dormintory accommodations
for students living at distance are
unsurpassed and expenses are reason
able. For further particulars relating
to- the above courses or other matters
concerning the school, correspondence
is solicited, as it is the desire of the
management to bring the advantages
of the institution to the attention of
the students for whom it is intended.

THE BIRTH AND....

into real estate and mine promotion.
The glamor of Mexico's mines and
lands was just beginning to interest
Wall Street. At that very time Logan
was in big Yaqui River lands deal
with Don Pedro Chisem of Guaymas
and Don Carlos Conant.
Upon previous occasions Greene
had appealed to Logan for assistance
in certain promotions, but, after sub
mitting his contracts, data and propo-
sition, Logan had smiled, courteously,
at his crude preparations and micros-
copic funds, and had outlined roughly
an informal plan which, if coupled
with a concrete proposition on pro-
missing property, with competent re-
port might interest him.
In due time Greene arrived in New
York on his Cananea campaign. After
meeting many typical rebuffs from
metropolitan financiers he bethought
himself of Logan. An appointment
was arranged and Greene submitted
Cananea The time was opportune,
and the lawyer-promoter was inter-
ested. However, he said: Before we
go any further your report must be
verified by my own engineer; if he
confirms your data certain changes
must be made in the Widow Pesqueira
contract; and, lastly, you must give
me a certain contigent share, and
also furnish few thousand dollars
for full page publicity in certain
specified list of dozen or so big
Eastern Sunday papers, and postage
send from a selected list of specula-
tive mining stock buyers, telling them
about Cananea."
Greene replied: "Who is your en-
gineer," Logan said: George A.
Treadwell." Greene rejoined: Bully;
1 know him-he has some personal
knowledge of Cananea, and 1 feel con-
fident that he will confirm my data
right off from the bat. AS to the
changes in the contract, I am sure
that can be done quickly also. My
bank roll lacks so much of the re-
quired amount; but shall try to COM
ply with your requirements by such
and such time" Logan nodded as
sent and the interview ended.
Greene rustled the balance of the
money, either from his friends, or
otherwise; and before the time ap-
pointed presented himself at Logan's
office. The latter was ready to act.
A West Virginia corporation was or
ganized for $4,000, 900; and the next
Sunday the papers were full of Cana
nea, letters and prospectuses were
mailed by tens of thousands to a select
,ed list of known speculative mining
stock buyers, from the dignified
banker to the village druggist and
pious clergyman.

A tip for housewives received from
local wholesale grocer is for them to
buy canned fruit now or to put up as
much as possible as prices will be out
of sight this winter. There Will also
be an advance In the price of canned
vegetables but they will not go as
high as fruits because the foreign
countries do not care for vegetables
as much as fruit This export demand
Ii one of the principle reasons for the
high prices of canned fruits.
Representatives of foreign countries
were in the United States early In the
spring and contracted to buy large
share Of the California canned fruit
pack. They were so eager to get II
that they placed contracts. allowing
the packers to set their own prices
later. As q result other packers wait
ed to make their prices after the Cali

port trade.

while recent advances are the highest
ever heard Of There has been a ID per
cent advance on every variety OF fruit
while pears have advanced 20 per cent
over the first price. pineapples 100 per
cent and peaches IS to rs per cent.
Other canned and packed foodstufh
that will be extremely high are salmon,
prunes and .raisins. The reasons Tor
their increase, aside from the big ex-
port demand, is the fact that there was
no surplus left last year as the gov
eminent bought 80 heavily, In addition
TO the general increase In cost,
Locally the advances In prices have
not been 80 extreme but an example
or the increase II shown in the case
OF Cameo peaches which sold last year
at 40 cents a can and are now 55 cents
