STOCK CONDITIONS
 IN STATE IMPROVE

Photographic and mail reports to the weather bureau indicate a general inn provemept in stock conditions in nearly all parts of Arizona and New Mexico, notwithstanding a practical absence of rainfall. Rain appears to be greatly needed in the vicinity of Douglas and southern Cochise county; absence of moisture is also apparent over the northeastern plateau where stock, how ever, are reported as improving and roundups in progress. In lower Navajo county conditions are generally eXcel- lent, water and food being plentiful. Stock are said to be fat in the Thatcher section and in fine condition in the Pinto, Prescott, and Grand Canyon sections. The calf crop is reported large about the Grand Canyon and calf branding is in progress near Pinedale.
 Seasonable temperatures and con stant sunshine during the daylight hours of the past week have caused cot ton to make remarkable growth in the cotton areas of Arizona. All evidence of "sore shin" and stunting by the cold spring weather have disappeared and plants are manifesting an unusually healthy condition. Seed placed in the ground since the hailstorTn have gernlf- mated uniformly and the young plants are doing well. Absence of rain las been particularly favorable for the seeding or oats, wheat and potatoes in the northern counties and agricultural activities have gone forward rapidly. Alfalfa harvest in the Gila. Salt River and Yuma valleys has bee9 greatly favored by dry weather.

BIC INCREASE IN COTTON ACREAGE EIS
 SHOWN IN REPORT

That there are 1S6,000 acres of land in the Salt River valley, planted in cotton, is one of the interesting facts contained in a. report of the stock and crop conditions here, compiled by the water users association.
 During the season of 191S-1919, cot ton and alfalfa covered about an equal acreage, but this year the former out strips the latter by more than 150,000 acres. There are only 25,234 acres of alfalfa under the project this year against 65,651 acres last year.
 Barley, Cantaloupes, pasture, pota- toes, watermelons, wheat and sudan grass al suffered large acreage reduc- tions. Dairy cows. cattle. sheep, hogs and ostriches also have been reduced

piano and although not played on for
years is said to be in excellent con-
dition. This piano, It is learned. has
a unique history, and during the boom
days of Lundy. was used in all social
functions. When the camp was flour
ishing it is said that a very cultured
young lady came from an eastern state

despite the objections of the girls rel

the marriage. and In less than a year
she was found dead in San Francisco,

WOOL MARKET
MAY IMPROVE

Wool growers may look for
change in the wool market within the
next thirty to sixty days" said j.
Sheehan, yiee-president of the First
National Bank today. Il believe the
wool market will be better then and
am advising their men to keep wool
stored at railroad points In antieipa-
tion of better prices. In several ne
cessary cases wool has been shipped
to Boston on consignment. buyers ad-
vancing fifteen cents per pound and
furnishing free storage for -four
months. advised against this prac-
tice unless growers keep control Of
their wool and Insist upon being in
formed of market conditions so they
may wire instructions to sell when
the deem the time opportune."
Mr.. Sheehan was reluctant to pre-
dict a possible future price for wool
saying that II is impossible for anyone
to forecast accurately. but he felt an
impression he was not OF opinion wool
will return to its former high price
around sixty cents per pound. He ex-
planned the drawbacks TO the federal
reserve bank scheme for supplying
wool men with money to carry them
over. Under the plan of the reserve
board. put forward as relief for wool
growers. an amount OF money similar
to the fifteen cents advanced by wool
buyers on consignment shipments may
be obtained from federal reserve
banks provided the banks are willing
to endorse the paper But these
loans are only for ninety days, at the
end of which time they are due and
payable and might leave the wool
men in worse condition than ever in
attempting to meet their indebtedness.
Therefore banks in this section are
handling the wool growers debts To-
cally.

are urging owners to hang on for a
time longer In some cases Offering to

HIGHWAY PROJECT
APPROVED BY THE
FEDERAL BOARD

An engineer of the highway depart
ment of the federal government was
here Friday and Saturday for the pur-
pose of examining the proposed con
crete road between Minden and Gard.
nerville, which has been surveyed and
recommended by the state highway
department. The engineer informed
the board of county commissioners
that the project would be accepted by
the federal government Within
short time bids will be asked for and
it is understood that the highway de-
partment anticipates that no difficulty
will be experienced in letting the con-
tract for the construction of the con-
crete road which Is to be twenty feet
wide, beginning at the Methodist
church in Gardnerville and connect
ing with the state highway short
distance north of Minden. 1t seems
quite probable that the new highway
will be completed this fall and owing
to the fact that no work has been
done on the graveled road between
the two towns during the past several
years, 1t is now the toughest stretch
of road In Douglas county, and the
fact that the federal government has
approved the action of the state high
way commission in building con-
crete or hard surfaced road. will be
welcomed by the people of this COM
munity.

before congress and eondemning the
action of local posts which have pass
ed resolutions opposing the measure
The action of local posts in other
parts of the country in taking part in
disputes between capital and labor
was condemned in a resolution which
states: "the interference of these posts
In the controversies between labor
and capital is in direct violation of
the principles set forth in the pre-
amble to the future strength and sue
cess of the Ameican Legion as a po-
tent and beneficial force deciding the
destiny of the American soldier
Therefore, be 1t resolved, that the
Department of Nevada, the American
Legion, place itself upon action of the
above posts and any and all posts
which, as a unit of the American Le-
gion. shall in any way, interfere be-
tween capital and labor or in any
manner align itself with capital and
labor"

apathy on the part of the American
people to instruct their children in

existed a widespread movement advo-
eating the abrogation of the constitu-
tions of the country The conviction
resolved to send a flying -ssquadron
through the state this fall to lecture
on American ideals and, It was re-
solved that, 1.-The people of the state
of Nevada be called upon to inculcate
in htir children the principles Of our
constitution and flag and adequate OBJ
servance of our national days
The various posts of Nevada were
urged to contribute reading matter to
the Lettermn General Hspital, San
Francisco. in which there are many
service men needing entertainment,
according to resolution adopted.
The convention also decided to take
action to prevent the wearing of an
American Legion button by unauthor-
ized persons. The Lovelock post was
, also thanked for he entertainment
| and hospitality shown the visiting
delegates.
