SOCIAL CORNER POEMS.
 On Growind Old.

On Growing O4d. Be with me. Beauty, for the fire is My eog and I are old, too old for rovingi Man whose young passion sets the spendthrift flying, Is soon too lame to march, too cold for loving. I take the book and gather to the fire, Turning old yellow leaves. Minute by minute, The clock th.cks to my heart. a withered wire, Moves a th-n ghost of music in the I cannot sail your seas. I cannot wander Your mountains, nor your down lands. nor your valleys, Ever again. nor share the battle yon- der. Where your young knight the broken squadron rallies; Only stay quiet, while my mind re- members The beauty of fire from the beauty of embers. Beauty. have pity; for the young have power. The rich treir wealth, the beautiful their grace. Summer Of man its fruit-time and its flower. Spring, me of man all April in a face, Only. as ia the jostling in the Strand, Where the mob thrusts or loiters or is loud The bagear with the saucer in his hand Asks only a penny from the pass ing crowd. So. from this gl;ttering world with all its fashion, Its fire and play of men, it's stir, its march, Let me have " sdom, Beauty, wisdom and passion. Bread to the soul rain, where the
 summers parch, Give me but these. and though the
 darkness close. Even the night will blossom as the rose. John Masefeld in the Atlantic Monthly

SAN FRANCISCO GOES
 OUT IF HER WAY ID
 ENTERTAIN VISITORS

Democratic national convention was a great advertisement for San Fran cisco, and San Francisco made the best of it to advertise to the world just what it is, the foremost city in the world for hospitality. There was a conspiracy not to raise prices as the hotels and restaurants and other institutions in 99 cities out of 100 in similar circum- stances would have done. On the con- trary, the people went out of their way to serve their guests and did more for them at regular prices than if no con- Ventlon had been in progress: if the city had not been thronged with guests
 Naturally, it was hard to find accom- modat1ons in the hotels, but the hotel keepers saw that the people were housed. Billy Graham went to several hotels before he could find permanent quarters, but at each place he was taken care Of until those who had made reservations m advance came At last he went to the Sutter and was given a large room with bath, elegantly fur nished, with two large and comfortable beds. He was told that the rate for the room would be $5 a day for one or two or four persons. A friend took the room with him, reducing the rate to $2.50.
 A delegate suffered the loss of the filling of a tooth and went to a dentist and asked that a temporary filling be put in until he could reach home. The dentist fixed him up and when the delegate asked the charge the dentist told him that he had done only what one member of the dental profession owed to another and refused to make a, charge.
 Two or three barber shops raised the tariff on their services and the news Of this attempt at profiteering seemed to spread all over the city. All the other barbers believed that an assault nau pen made on the good name of San Francisco and placards were nIaced III all windows, showing the rates for service to be much below those charged by the profiteers who soon found them selves almost without occupation.
 So It was everywhere. Every man "ho met delegate or other visitor acted as if he was Chairman of a wal coming committee.

ing down Of production of low grade ore.
 MT. Jones also called attention to the manufacturing products that are shipped from the East He contrasted the farmers of Iowa and Illinois, who are able to send 200 miles for their heavy farm implements, while the Arizona farmers send 2,000 miles Tor their implements, making the burden heavier here than elsewhere in the country NIr Jones said he was not adverse to treating the railroads lib orally. but that in his opinion the limit has almost been reached.
 Tn 3-Cent Fare Case
 In connection with the 2-cent fare rate case which will be heard in Los Angeles in September, Mir. Jones stated that he took occasion to refer to this matter at the hearing. This came up in connection with the claim made by the railroads of the western classifi- cation when claim was made that the roads had to make 1852, ,S93,265 more revenue than they now are earning an- nually to give the 6 per cent return on property invested, authorized by a re- cent act of congress. Arizona is pay ing 4, , and cents mile, declared MT. Jones. who said that if all the roads in the western territory collect ed cents and no more, the increase of the par value would be $60, 0,507. .542. Many roads are collecting less than 3 cents, while if a uniform rate of 3-4 cents per mile was in effect, the roads would make S104 905,000 more year, and not take all the burden on freight.
 Mir. Jones also appeared for the state in Chicago, where oral arguments were heard in the graded rate case which has been submitted and in which decision will be handed down in August. San Francisco, Portland and Seattle opposed Arizona in its plea for relief from paying higher freight rates than in effect at other points. MT. Jones made an impression when he emphasized the point that freight rates were higher from Los Angeles to Phoenix than from Los Angeles through Phoenix to St. Paul.
 MT. Jones, who has worked inde- fatigably during the past year, will take an extended vacation. He hopes to be able to clear his desk" within the next few days when he will leave for the coast.

the testimony that in all probability an increase would be granted, but not in the amount sought. said MT. Jones. One of the disputed points among the shippers themselves was whether Q percentage increase alike on all traf- fic should be granted. The increase in this territory will be A per cent if the railroads application is granted
 The manufacturing interests in all the large cities were represented, while among other interests were the citrus growers of California who ship 50,000 cars a year; the lumber interests of the Northwest; the iron ore shippers of Michigan. The cement manufac- tureEs and the coal producers con- tended that the increase asked would be disastrous. Instead of a percentage increase, they asked that a definite in crease be granted in order not to de- stroy any industry.
 Objects To Blanket Increase
 Mir. Jones, on behalf of Arizona, ap- pealed for the definite increase policy. Arizona. he said, was the largest cop per-producing state in the Union, the value being largely in big bodies of ore of low grade. To produce and reduce metal requires the importation of vast quantities of fuel-coal, coke and oil and these commodities have to be hauled an average of 800 miles at an average rate of S6 a ton. The point taken by MT. JoneE was that a 25 per cent increase might result in the clos

DAILY CANTALOUPE
 SHIPMENTS GAINING
 AS IMPERIAL LOSES

Cantaloupe shipments from the Salt River Valley July totaled 43 car loads, according to the bureau of mar l1ets' bulletin issued at the chamber of comTherce yesterday. Shipping infor- Hation contained in the bulletin for July ' is: ''113 maximum. 7F mini mum. Hauling moderate. Quality and condition good, mostly large size. Few sales in carlots for marketing locally. Choice standards, 45s, $250; stand ards 36s' $2.0O; ponys, $1.S5: flats, S1OO. Most shipments consigned"
 Shipments and destination were: At lanta l, Boston 2, Buffalo 2, Chicago g. Cincinnati ?, Cleveland 1, Columbus l . Denver l, Detroit 2, Kansas City l. Memphis l, Minneapolis l. New Or leans l, New York ', Omaha l, Phila- delphia 2, Pittsburg 3, St. Joseph l. St. Louis 1, total 43 carloads.
 The acre yield in the Salt River val ley this year is heavy, the bureau of markets reporting it more than 200 standard crates to the acre. At $50 crates to the car it is estimated the crop will comprise 1900 carloads from 2300 acres.
 Following the hail storm several weeks ago. L. M. Harrison, field agent of the bureau of estimates. cut down the estimated acreage from 2760 acres to 246O. Upon this shrinkage estimate an estimate of 1900 carloads was made Shortly after the hailstorm ideal can taloupe weather set in, causing the acre yield to be largely increased, with the result that the bureau of markets now gathers from the field estimates of 1900 carloads from even a smaller acreage than that estimated by Harri- son. The distributors, prior to be- ginning the shipment of cantafoupes from the Salt River valley, held to the 2760 estimate as a basis and the rail- roads in conformity with existing es- inmates on acreage estimated the crop at 1500 carloads. The latest estimate of 1900 carloads from 230O acres is evf- dence of an unusual acre yield it was stated at the chamber of commerce. In the past it was the custom to estimate two acres to the carload. Had that es-

July IS may become a national day .on the caenldar. It is the anniversary of the beginning of the big American drive on the western front during the world war that resulted in the calling of the armistice and the end of the war.
