There is a big difference
between the yield of crops
planted with an inaccurate plan
ter and one that's accurate. You
use the same amount of seed
but the difference in the crop
often amounts to as much as
five, six or seven-yes, and
more bushels per acre.
Here is a point we want you
to. think over: If a planter
misses only fifteen kernels in every
100 hills, there is loss Of FIVE bushels
per acre in the yield.

the site at Tempe where Twohy Broth CTS, who are to construct 2S0 miles of paved highways in Maricopa county, are now erecting their giant gravel plant
 Because of it's size and many modern appliances and because of the import ant role this plant will play in the com pletion of the good roads program that is to mean so much to the county, the gravel plant now being installed at Tempe is of deep interest to layman and engineer alike.
 The plant is a huge undertaking, and among it's many features are the gravel pit, from which the material is to be taken, and which is 20 acres in size, the 2,250 feet of three-foot guage track over which will run the trains of dump cars carrying the material, the huge steam shovel that excavates the ma terial, the 1S-ton locomotives that will haul the cars, the immense crushing plant, where the rock is crushed and separated from the sand and where the different particles are cleaned, and many other examples of mans inge- nuity.
 Gravel Pit in River Bed
 The gravel pit" is located in the

material supplied by the gravel plant from eight different "Set-upS," or work ing stations, throughout the project. After the material has been brought to the various railroad sidings from the plant at Tempe it is loaded through a system of bunkers into the batch cars- of an industrial railway" which has been purchased by the contractors from the Lakewood Engineering company of Chicago. This railroad is operated by gasoline enginer and each batch" is divided into three divisions-one for a standard amount of cement one for a standard amount of sand, and one for a standard quantity of stone. These industrial trains" travel over collap- sible track, which comes in sections 15 feet long. Several miles of this track can be laid daily on the shoulder of the road. The track has 24tncn guage.
 Construction is carried on from two 'set-ups" at a time and therefore there will be two plants. Each plant will have 7h miles of industrial railway track, besides gasoline locomotives. 1OS cars and 216 batch boxes"
 The industrial trains' take the ma terial direct to the paving machines on the road-to-be. The batch box" is lifted from the car by means of a der rick and the material is dumped into the mixer After it has been mixed and placed on the road as concrete a ma chine known as the "finisher~ spreads the concrete, ''tamps" or presses the concrete, thereby giving the road the best degree of compactness, subse- quently finishing" the surface by means of rubber belt to smooth, even surface.
 The methods to be applied by Twohy Brothers in the carrying out of Mari copa county's good roads system call for the use of the best. strongest and cleanest material throughout, coupled with utilization of the most efficient and up-to-date machinery. Each meth cd and each machine has been designed with the purpose of building the strong est possible road that will give the people of the county the very best value.

PRESCOTT iFTER 1921
 LEGION CONVENTION

The advance guard of Ernest A Love Post, American Legion, of Pres colt arrived in the city yesterday morning en route to Globe for the state convention of the legion.
 It consisted of Emmett Morrison and w. M. Roberts. George Nilsson post commander arrived last night.
 The Prescott delegation is hopeful of securing the 1921 state convention for Prescott and it will have something to say at Globe concerning the climate of the Mile High town and the prox- unity of Whipple Barracks. Back of this movement is the Whipple Echo, a newspaper printed at the barracks, devoted to the interests of legionaries.
 One of the chief attractions of the state convention beginning tomorrow will be the presence of Franklin D'Olier national commander elected at Minneapolis, where the first national convention was held a year ago.

IDEAL SECTION OF
AMERICAN HIGHWAY

There is to be constructed on the
Lincoln Highway, the great National
road stretching across the country
from ocean to ocean, an ideal c
ton which will embody the highest
ideals of modern American highway
construction. This section will serve
as an example to the road builders of
the world seeking information as to
the best and most satisfactory type of
road that can be built. The funds
for building the section will be pro-
vided by the United States Rubber
Company. The specifications Of the
ideal section" have not yet been de-
cided. A QUESTIONABLE has been
mailed to every highway commission
er and engineer in the United States
asking for suggestions. T he location
of the section has not yet been sell
ected, but conditions on the Lincoln
Highway in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois
and Iowa indicate that one Of those
States will be chosen.

NO DECISION

The supreme court Of the United
States has again called to render an
opinion as to the constitutionality Of
the prohibition amendment to the
Federal constitution. 1t has, how
ever. decided that q referendum on
such amendments cannot be taken in
States having referendum provisions
in their constitutions. The Ohio case
was therefore dismissed. Next week
the supreme court will adjourn for
Summer recess and both vets and
drys will remain on the anxious seat
until a definite decision Is rendered.
The Republican National convention
will be in session next week. Judging
from present indications the platform
will carry no reference to prohibition
unless the supreme court declares the
amendment unconstitutional. Should
this happen the party would be COM
PEELED to take a stand upon the Ques-
ton. The same thing applies to the
Democrats, who will meet in San
Francisco the latter part Of the
month. The vets have been max
ing considerable noise for some time
past, but their case is hopeless un-
less the court of last resort m to
the rescue. Next week may tell the
tale.-Salt Lake Tribune.

Here is what Ring w. Lardner
would say you might call" a public
demonstration.
1t is a demonstration upon the sub
ject Of newspaper advertising. For
more then ten years the town and
county of Eureka have had no bank.
But Tin one way" as Mr.. Lardner
would also say, everybody has not
suffered. One exception is the Sem
tinel, Eureka's excellent newspaper.
which happens to be one Of the very
best weeklies in Nevada, which, as a
result of there having been no bank
there, carries ads for FIVE banks of
neighboring cities which are bidding
through the newspaper for a share
OF the Eureka business-two Of Reno,
two of Elko and a big one Of Winnie
mucca.
This Ia not written for the purpose
of urging the local banks to cut in
for a share of the Eureka business,
for Eureka is soon to have a strong
bank Of its own, but merely to show
how it pays any kind Of business to
follow the example of banks and
make use of newspaper advertising
in appealing for patronage. In other
words. what is good for the most con-
sentative line of business is good for
every line.-Ely Daily Times.

paid for by, popular subscription in
1899 and presented to Admiral Dew

room for a business building. The
house was at Rhode Island and Con-

was given to him the act struck the
people wrong, and his popularity was
gone like a bursted bubble. Refuta-

NEVADA PRESS COMMENT
STILL SWINGING THE PEN

Elko Independent: Contrary to
reports sought to be generally circu-
lated by various parties who would
declare q holiday II their stories were
true in order to properly celebrate
the occasion. Ye Scribe is still swing
ing the editorial and news pen on the
Windypendent and handling its pay
roll and proposes to continue doing
so until he gets damned good and
ready to quit, and that means just
exactly what 1t says. Whenever any
crepe is hung on our door we'll hang
1t there ourselves without the assis-
lance Of any persons who would en-
joy tickling their nostrils with the
perfume from our scribbling remains.
Don't be disappointed If this state
ment is obscure. The details may
appear a little later when the family
wash begins to be hung OF the line
for an airing, which 1t has been in
dire need Of for two long years.
