A PROCLAMATION OF ARBOR
DAY BY THE GOVERNOR

Arizona. recognizing the value and
benefits of the custom inaugurated
by the State of Nebraska shortly
after the Civil War, has decreed the
observance of Arbor Day and imposed
upon the Governor the duty of setting
aside two days Zone for the south
ern and the other for the northern
icounties) on which appropriate ex-
ercises shall accompany the planting
'of trees, vines, shrubbery and flowers
by the pupils of public and private
schools.

the birds do not chant a song of

the desert is merely a barren waste

ing an increase of nearly 1000 in
stated value, and the imports an in
crease If about 500; though it is
proper to add that these increases in
the grand sotai of values are due IN
very considerable degree to the
higher prices in 1919.
The United States, says the Banks
statement, has Jared generously at
the hands of her Latin American
ncighbcrs during this period. Prior
to tic war the Latin Americans were,
as {. great group, taking only about
23cs of their total imports from the
United States, while in 1919 they
, took from Us, as nearly as can now
be estimated, 1870 of their greatly in
creased imports. Their aggregate
imports advanced from $1.400, 000,-
900 in 1913 to about $2,000,0O0,OOO in
. 1919. Our total exports to Latin
America in the fiscal year 1914, all
of which preceded the war, were
1882, 1000, 900. and in the calendar
year 1919 approximately $3,93Q,000'-
900. They increased their imports
about. $500, 100000, while our exports
to them increased about $65O'000,
900 in the same period.

20 countries were $1,4O3, 100000 ir
1913, then dropping to $978'000,O00
in 1914, and 1857 ,OOO, 100000 in 1915,
advancing to $1,51O,OO0,OO0 in 1918,
with probability that the 1919 totals
when received will show nearly or
quite $4,000 100000, this sharp in
crease in 1919 being due to the in
creased purchasing power resulting
from the high prices and popular de-
mand for the coffee of Brazil, the
sugar of Cuba, the cocoa of Ecuador,
Santo Domingo and Brazil, and the
wool and meats of Argentina, Uru-
quay and Chile.

lasting hills, and the skies which de-
clare the glory of their Maker, we
miss the beautiful visions which have
been created not alone for our mental
delectation, but for the publication
of our souls.
1t is therefore vital that cur schools
recognize the Importance and neces-
sity of impressing upon the plastic
minds of our children that through
an understanding of Nature they are
better able to comprehend what is
good and really worth while, and be-
come attuned to the Infinite. Arbor
Day therefore has more than utilitar-
ian significance and it is meet and
proper that these deeper lessons
should be diligently pursued.
Now Therefore l Thomas E..
Campbell, Governor of Arizona, by
virtue of the authority vested in me,
and in conformity with the pro-
visions of Paragraphs 2837-2840.
Chapter Xxx of the Revised Statutes
of Arizona, do hereby designate Fri
day and set apart, Friday the 9th
day of February, 1920 as Arbor Day,
to be observed in the Counties of
Cochise, Gila, Graham, Greenlee,
Maricopa, Pima, Pinal. Santa Cruz
and Yuma; and similarly / hereby
designate and set apart Friday the
End day Of April, 1920 as Arbor Day
for due observance in the Counties of
Apache, Coconino, Navajo, Mohaye
and Yavapai.
And I also recommend that OBJ
servance of these occasions be not
confined to the schools Of the COM
monwealth, but that those of older
years pause from their labors and
with civic pride as their actuating
motive, aid in identifying the several
communities in which they live.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, have
hereunto set my hand and caused the
Great Seal Of the State of Arizona
to be affixed.

SILKS-Retail Business
Brisk ut LOn Prices

Retail business in silks continues
undated. Retailers have been passing
on the advantages they gained in the
wholesale market to their customers
Special offerings of silk at cut prices
have stimulated over the-c counter sales,
according to the retailers, who assert
that they have been able to pick up
bargains from the small jobbcrs to mix
in with their regular stock and thus
make fair margin of profit without
forcing the customer to pay the high
prices that the retailer ,therwise would
have been compelled t. charge on his
reghar merchandise.
The development of home sewing, ac-
cording to retailers, has helped sales.
Department stores maintaining dress
making classes report that these are
better attended now than at any time
since their institution. The sales of
sewing machines also have increased.
In wholesale circles little business
is being transacted. Raw silks are un-
settled and the majority of silk goods
manufacturers are holding off opening
the fall season. The big producers feel
that more is to be gained by waiting
than in trying to force new business
at present Several manufacturers who
booked fall orders a month or more
ago are understood to have revised
prices downward later In some cases
cancellations of the early orders have
taken place.

,JEWELRY-Trade Receives
Lnrge CONSIGNMENT OF Pearls

The available supply in this market
of high grade pearls has become so low
that the arrival Of 100000 worth of
these gems within the past few days
has caused considerable stir among
gem importers. Ordinarily a cons gn-
ment of this size would excite little
comment, but first grade pearls have
become SO scarce that they are now
regarded as being more precious than
diamonds. Like the latter, the demand
for pearls is not confined to America
alone, but throughout the entire
world rings, brooches, earrings, pins,
etc, containing the precious gem are
bringing enormous prices, and the
jewelers. are able to meet but a small
part Of the demand. Pearl necklaces
also are popular, selling at retail from
$3.50 to S125,000 a string In the case
of the more expensive strings importers
are compelled to visit the gem markets
to buy pearls that match evenly.
Dealers in precious stones said yes
terday that the demand for Mississippi
pearls is increasing, both from domes-
tic and foreign sources. This pearl is
found in the Mississippi River and the
Gulf of Mexico, and although it is a
good looking jewel and sells for high
price it's quality cannot be compared
with the salt water pearls that are
found off the shores of Eastern Asia.
In the absence of the genuine many
manufacturers are turning out large
quantities of manufactured pearls
Strings made UP of these limitations
cost as much as $3.50 and retailers say
they have little difficulty in disposing
Of their stocks.

COTTONS-Laie Deliveries
Nav OUerst0ck Distributors

The possibility that retailers and
garment manufacturers may become
overloaded with strictly seasonable
cotton goods when the traffic tangle
is Strengthened out is being watched
for developments by wholesale sellers.
Some shipments have been delayed as
much as two months and few in
stances have been revealed where
users of goods have placed orders at
two or three sources to make sure Of
delivery. The easing UP in the traffic
situation is leading to the belief that
should all of the sellers make good
on the orders placed with them, the
retailers and garment makers will
find themselves with considerable sum-
mer stock on hand, with the season
already far advanced and the oppor-
tunity to dispose of all their merchan~
disc gone.
Mill agents and commission mer-
chants assert that the only place where
an accumulation of goods can take
place is in the hands Of the jobbers,
retailers or garment manufacturers.
Most mills, according to their repre-
sentatives here, are still behind on
production compared with orders on
hand. The higher grades of bleached
goods, for instance, are sold as far as
September, according to commission
houses

LEATHER-Shoe Factories
Oper0te on Part Time

Owing to the lack Of fall business
shoe factories in Brooklyn and up
state New York are operating on par5
time. Many of the larger concerns have
found it necessary to close their cut
ting rooms, while a number of fitting
rooms also are idle. A few factories
are working at full capacity, but this is
the exception rather than the rule.
Manufacturers are keenly disappointed
at the attitude of the retail trade. As
there has been no manifestation on the
part of retailers thus far to enter
the market Or to turn in their fall or
ders, manufacturers have little to do
but watch and wait for business to come.
Salesman report slow buying policy.
There is also considerable uncertainty
on the part of retailers regarding the
style situation. They say that aside
from the Theo tie and cut out effects
there is nothing really new being shown
and that the styles now being shown
are merely a repetition and a rehash
Of patterns and lasts such as were
shown during several seasons past.
There is a general feeling among the
dealers that something new in the style
situation is going to spring up within
a short time, and in order to be pre-
pared they are withholding their pur-
chases so as to be ready when the new
ideas in styles arrive.
The brogue oxford is looked upon as
staple line. Many retailers are of the
opinion that it is safe to stock this
style in volume, but inasmuch as fac
tories all over the country are carrying
this particular model in stock they feel
that it is good business on their part
to rely on the stocks already on their
shelves. The one-eyelet and Theo ties
are in good demand at present, but re-
tailers are skeptical as to their ability
to maintain this position throughout
the entire summer season.

Heavy Calf Slaughter Reduces
Supply of Full.Sized Hides

Since the first of the current year calf
receipts at Chicago have shown steady
increases, those for each month being
larger than for the corresponding month
year ago, and the arrivals for March
were the largest for any month in the
history OF 1ne trade Although these
unusual receipts indicate that there
Will be an increase in the supply of
calfskins, they also bring out the fact
that there will be fewer full sized
hides because of the many young calves
now being shipped to the market.
Receipts at the Chicago market in
March totaled 1890 head an increase
Of nearly 5000 over the corresponding
period of the preceding year. Accord
ing to authorities in the trade it is
unusual to see such a large supply re-
ceived so early in the year. The heavy
arrivals are generally recorded during
June and July.
