COMMENDS THE HOUSE.

The quick reversal by the House of
its mistaken decision to adjourn for
five weeks, and instead of resting,
stay on the job, is much to be COM
mended While made to look rather
silly by it's prompt acceptance of the
presidents suggestion that it remain
in session, the republican House real
" acted in public spirited and pat
riotic spirit in needing the message of
\ democratic president. The House
ought to be of public service in shar-
ing the responsibilities of government.
There will be no vacations for anyone
In responsible position for some time
to come if the high cost of living can

MAN KILLED BY WEST
 BOUND TROOP TRAIN

On Sunday evening May II, l.. w. Gregor was struck by a westbound troop train, as. he was walking on the railroad track, about two miles west of Maine station. He stepped off one track as a freight train passed, and immediately in front of the troop train. Appar- ently he did not hear the whis- tie of the troop train, which was unable to stop on the down grade, at a curve, before hit ting Gregor. After bringing the troop train to a stop, MT. Gregor was taken aboard and brought to Williams. On being removed to the baggage room of the Williams depot, Dr. Mel ick, the company physician was called.
 It was found that the injur- ies were fatal. The mans head was cut, his left arm broken and left side crushed. He lived about an hour after being in- jured. He spoke to those around him but appeared to be deaf and unable to hear the questions asked him. From papers in his possession, a brothers name was obtained, and a telegram sent notifying him of the accident. As no in- structions for burial had been received by Wednesday, the body was inferred in the local cemetery.

GREETINGS BY AIRPLENE

Greetings from thrifty Amer ica to thrifty Great Britain were carried by the Navy air planes which started on the long trip across the Atlantic. The Navy f1iers carried a letter from Harold Braddock, Direc- tor of the Savings Division of the Treasury Department, writ ten in behalf of the American Thrift campaign, to the Right Hon. Sir Robert Kindersley, K. B. E., Chairman of the British National War Savings Commit tee. The letter read:
 23, April 1919.
 My Dear Sir Robert:
 Greetings from the people of the United States who, inspired by patriotic investment in Gov ernment securities, are now deeply interested in the study and practice of Thrift.
 Our citizens are holding for maturity more than $1,000,0O0 in War Savings Certificate Stamps and at the same time are reaping the benefit of past systematic saving and invest ment through the disbursement by the Government this year of some $809,OOO,O0O interest on Liberty Bonds and Victory notes. I rejoice to say to you that the broad popular interest in this movement which will make Thrift an enduring part of our national life, is manifest ing itself through natonaI pub lications of every kind as we'll as through the continued pur- chase of Thrift Stamps and War Savings Stamps.
 We find much profit in study ing the campaign now going forward so splendidly among the people of the United King dom, for the success of which I beg leave to send my heartiest good wishes, by transatlantic airplane.
 I am, my dear Sir Robert Kindersiey,
 Sincerely yours,
 (Signed)

If present prospects are realiz- ed the State should produce about one million bushels on the 10000 acres remaining to be harvested. This would be slightly more than last year.
 Cotton prospects at this time are excellent. A preliminary estimate places the total acre age for the state at no, ,OOG, which compares with 92, ,OOC acres last year.
 The condition of the alfalfa crop was 97 per cent compared with 94 per cent last year, and 93 per cent in 1917. The acre. age this year is estimated at 138, 1000, which compares with 125, ,OOO acres last year. Mari copa County leads with S5.OOG acres. Graham county reports 14,OOO acres; Yuma, 10000; Pinal and Pima, each 5000; Cochise, $500; Apache and Yavapai, each 5000; and the remainder of the State, 5000.
 Spring blowing completed to May 1 was estimated at 90 per cent, while spring sowing and planting was 80 per cent com pleted, which is the usual amount done by May 1.
 The Arizona cantaloupe crop is being grown on the largest acreage ever planted and the prospects are for one of the largest crops ever har- vested in the State. The acre age this year is about 4,5OO. 1 compared with 2,3OO last year, and 2,OOO acres in 1917.
 Pasture conditions May l show a marked improvement 1 over last year, being reported 1 at 92 per cent of normal. This is II per cent higher than last | year on May l, and per cent | higher than the 1O-year aver age condition.
 Fruit conditions in the State are we'll above the average. Ex- ceptin a few localities in the higher attitudes where frost in- jured the crop, an excellent crop of peaches and apricots will be produced. The first de tailed report of the fruit crop will be issued next month. States conditions are as. follows: Wheat. 1905; Rye; 95.3; Hay, >9A.3; snd pasture, 90.3.. r4 A.....5
