zona corporation commission yester-
day issued an order denying the ap-
plication recently made by the rail-
roads operating in Arizona for an

to the increased rates on interstate
shipments granted by the interstate

ton was held before the state cor
poration commission September IS.

which are recognized by Duroc breed

cial mention ought to be made of the
fine litter of pigs raised by Forrest
Fem, which was sired by Aviator
Pathfnder, a Brookings county boar.
One boar of Mr.. Fenn's took first prize
for boar pig and grand champion of
all breeds at the State Pig club show
at Huron fair, and second prize boar
at the Interstate fair, pig club class,
at Sioux city. Several other pigs from
the same litter also took prizes at
these fairs.
Country boys and girls are raising
pure bred pigs nowadays instead OF
making toy windmills and playing
with paper dolls. The result is that
they have produced some very fine
stuff which has proven to be quite a
profitable enterprise. 1t is estimated
hat in the last year the members of
the pig clubs in this state alone have
produced over a million dollars worth
of new wealth. Before the sale Fri
day Mr.. and Mrs. Ray Barnett, who
have been the club leaders for the

bers as a means of expressing their
appreciation for the good work the
Barnetts have done for the club.
