SOCIAL PARESIS

There is an amiable disease called
paresis. or genial paralysis of the in
sane, which is caused by blood dis
ease. and ends in death. But in its
early stages the patient has a sense o!
splendid grandeur. He spends mag
nificently. he is rich as Croesus, he has
made wonderful inventions, he car
thrash anybody, and he is always glad
to tell you of his prowess and to dis
play his accomplishments.
War is like paresis. 1t produces
nothing; in fact it is entirely destruc
tive But it calls for enormous ex-
penditures of wealth and energy, il
dislodges capital from fruitful employ
ment, and the easy money which il
seems to bring encourages extrava-
gance as magnificent, and mad as that
of the paretic.
It makes for a paretic world.
In the midst of our exhilaration let
us glance again at the patient as he
lies in the next stage, mouthing his
blanket, shrivelled, helpless and de-
mented.
If the disease continues, what is to
help the world from ending in some
thing like that?

by reason OF this condition, the pub

dilemma. How can il at the present

il The period of readjustment could be
postponed until time of more stable

be adopted of establishing independent
railroad credit instantly at all hazards
it would be only logical TO make the

TAKING HOPE OUT
Of HOPEFULNESS
Of KY. D|ST|LLER

Some of the distillers must be des-
perate. Otherwise they would know
more about the liquor regulations in
Arizona. The following correspondence
speaks for itself
January 5. 1920
Early Times Distillery Company,
Early Times, Kentucky.
Gentlemen:
Your letter of December 30th is just
received wherein you inquire if the
laws of Arizona will permit shipment
of whisky into our state for medicinal
purposes and / hasten to reply.
Your letter is dated Early Times
Kentucky and L may state that my
parents were born during the Early
Times" of Kentucky. in Hardin county,
the birthplace of AbIHflam Lincoln and
history records the eanvivialities OF
those .'Eap1y Tim es'fn Kentucky
when medicinaI purposes as applied to
whisky covered q multitude of all
ments.
My friends, let me assure you that
the joyous hours of those EARLY
Times" fraught with much happiness,
good cheer and comfort and often end
Ing dismally. have gone aglimmering."
The traffic in whisky for medicinal
purposes, in Arizona, ARs stricken
with paralysis and ''locomotor
ataxia immediately after the demo-
cratic election of 1914 and since then
the patient seems TO be past all
surgery
You state in your letter: I'VE were
wondering if we could ship whisky into
the drug stores of your state for medi-
cinal purposes only and | will advise
YOU to cease your wondering as this
matter in Arizona is one of serious
and sober consequence and is no longer
one OF the"wonderS" of the world. You
state further also advise us the GUAM
Uty physician can prescribe at one
time and | would say that | can
point TO no provision of our law which
forbids physician to prescribe any
quantity from a gill to a barrel but the
diSappoin tment Will be realized when
the patient attempts to have his pre-
Scription filled.
From the foregoing you will realize
that the wound inflicted upon the
liquor traffic in any form in Arizona in
1914 and by subsequent acts is really
more serious than that described by
Shapespeare's Mercution when he ex-
claimed 1T is not so deep as a well nor
as wide as a barn door, but it is suf-
ficient.' Therefore. be assured SER
iously that "Eary Times" of Arizona as
to the liquor traffic took its departure
much earlier than the Early Times /
of old Kentucky" and the hopefulness /
expressed in your letter must be adj /
judged to be without hope
Yours very truly

STATE ALIENISTS
ADMIT NEWS MIND
IS NOT DEVELOPED

Los ANGELES. Cal. Jan. Z. =
Lengthy cross examination of wit
nesses called by the prosecution, who
had testified Harry New was sane al
the time he is alleged to have killed
his fiancee. Freda Lesser, here last
July. today prevented the prosecution
from closing its case against New.
DR.. d. II. Calder, the second OF
three alienists, the last witness the
state expected to call, was on the
stand when adjournment was taken
until tomorrow 1t was predicted by
attorneys. for both sides the testimony
of the last alienist for the state would
not be before the jury until tomorrow
afternoon. 1t is doubtful if arguments
would be begun before Friday, attor-
news said. and the case will not go TO
the jury before Saturday noon or Mon
day morning.
DIR. calder testified on direct ex-
animation he believed New was sane
when he was alleged to have shot Mis-
Lesser, based partly on examinations
he had made of New in the county jail
Under cross examination by Lee
compile Davis of counsel for New, the
doctor said he considered New IAN I'M
developed man mentally" He ad-
mitted also he had gained the impress
sion from his examinations that New
was not feigning insanity. Further,
he said, if the hypothetical question
asked by the defense of it's experts
several days ago was based on truth
full testimony, he thought the defend
ant was a dangerous man and ought
to be confined.
DIR. Charles Allen testified he be-
lieved New was sane when he shot
Miss Lesser, but defense counsel pro-
fessed to be gratified by this witness
statements under cross examination.
He testified he considered several al
legged acts of accused the acts of an in
sane man and added that they fur
nished grounds for suspicious that
New was insane.
DIR. Allen said he had special refer
ence to the alleged act of New while
serving with the Indiana guard on the
Mexican border in 1916 when New is
said to have refused to obey orders
and to have sulked in his tent against
eating for 40 hours, thus making him
self liable to trial by courtmartial.
The witness expressed the opinion
that if New had been tried by court
martial he would have been acquitted

FATHER Of PROJECT
SENDS BEST WISHES
To THE REPUBLICAN

Everyone in Phoenix and the Salt
River valley who has been here for
any length of time knows who b. A.
Fowler is and what a prominent part
he has taken in the development Of
the valley and state. He was one of
the pioneers in working for the Roose-
welt dam project and had fully a.
much to do with its success as any
other single man. He also was at one
time president of the Water Users as
sociation.
For these and many other reasons.
The Republican may be pardoned for
feeling rather proud of the expression
of Mr. Fowler in the following letter
recently received from him al Long

The Dairy Farm Re-
turns Greater Revenue
in a Four-Year Period
than the Cotton Ranch,
No. 20
Even Allowing Double the Rental
The Best Returns from Cotton Year
After Year Can Only be Secured BY
Fertilization and Crop Rotation.

We have repeatedly called the attention of
farmers to the danger of "bankrupting' the
soil through continuous cropping to cotton,
and the great advantage to be derived In this
regard from diversified farming, and from
using the manure from dairy herd as fer
tilizer. On the modern farm, fertilizer is a
fixed charge against the land. In other words
the soil must produce crop of sufficient
worth to pay for seed, fertilizer, cultivation
and rent Therefore, when the fertilizer is
produced by the dairy herd, the modern farm
er charges the particular field where it is APP
piled with the tonnage used, and credits the
dairy herd which furnishes it. The price, of
course, varies according to locality, but the
value may always be ascertained to the last
cent by figuring its worth as compared to
commercial fertilizer.
The comparative table printed below,
which furnished us by farmer who has
made a study of farming and soils until he
operates his ranch a strictly business basis,
is indicative of the conditions that would OBJ
tain on a four-year basis as viewed by
tributor. AS matter of fact he has failed 10
take into consideration the testimony of soil
experts who maintain that the soil would re-
quire rest" of from to two years after
four years successfully cropping" cotton,
and that this rest" would be almost loss,
and should be charged against the $500
revenue.

These figures show that the dairy farmer
is $50 better off at the end of a four-year
period, yet the diversified farmer is even bet
ter off because he has grown variety of crops
including cotton. Owing to fertilization the
acreage planted to cotton yields heavily; and
other crops also make good-just how good
depends upon the ability and ingenuity of the
farmer.
a system of crop rotation with dairy cattle will
excel cotton any other single crop.
Let this department assist you in getting
into the dairy business.
