10, SIG Farms in
State of Arizona

According to the 1920 census,
the number of farms in Arizona
has increased 1859. making a
total of 10,816 farms in the State.
This is an increase Of 17.2 per
cent since 1910. During the pre-
ceding decade there was an in
crease of 58.S per cent in the
number of farms.
A large number of states have
lost in the total number of farms
during the same period. On first
thought this might seem dis
couraging from the standpoint of
agricultural interests. However,
many writer's are taking the
stand that it means greater eff
ficiency in the final analysis, be-
cause greater crops are being
grown and more people are being
fed. yet fewer people are re
auired TO do the work. This is
explained, in the opinion of many
people, by the introduction Of
improved and lahor-saving ma
chinery. which enables one per
son to do the work of several.
Although reduced prices now
received for farm products tends
to discourage farmers in general,
the Arizona farmer. owing to the
distance from the great centers
OF production, has a marked ad-
vantage, and will continue to
have this advantage 80 long as
the local demands OF our markets
have to be met by products ship
ped in from great distances.
Most of the products now pro-
duced on Arizona farms, inclGd F!
ing live stock ready for the |
are bringing more than
the market price in the large |
centers.
These are factors bearing upon |
the increase in the number Of |
farms operating in the State
during the past decade.

CONSTRUCTIVE VIEWPOINT

dress befure the Arizona Bank

in part:
my opinion is that it is not
wise 10 stay on The bear side Of
either the United States or of its
Chief raw products. The return
to normal business conditions,
however. will be gradual, and
while the depression which we
are now experiencing is the most
severe which we wil encounter,
we may expect continually les
sening ups and downs until the
circle Of present disturbed con-
dilions caused 10y the plummet
Of war shall ripple off into the
placid waters Of commercial
peace.
IL is the duty Of the banks to
care for every legitimate demand
in t'mcssuch rs these. by legiti-
mate demand, ] do not mean
either the pressure or demand
for The carrying of the product
for Il speculative rise, but rather
for the carrying of the product
beyond the point of harvest for
the protection of the producer.

REACHING THE LIMIT

Copper. lead and zinc, which
make up the bulk Of the great
western metal industry have been
struggling for their existence for
two years with war time wages
and overhead expense and peace
time prices. European buyers
who were formerly our heavy
consumers have been unable to
purchase, due to exchange con.
ditions. The mines have made
an heroic effort to keep up op.
erations and maintain wages and
as last resort copper producers
are attempting to stimulate con-
sumption by introducing "copper"
the everlasting metal, into more
general use in home utensils,
roofing, window frames and sash,
automobile trimmings and for
many other commercial purposes
where permanency is desirable.

American Legion, arrived here
Monday. Work of erecting the
various attractions, shows and
riGes, went forward with a rush
and that evening several of the
attractions were ready for open

afternoon. Each afternoon and
evening during the week, includ-
ing tomorrow, Saturday night,
shows and rides will be in opera

About a score of tented attrac-
tons and riding devices make up
the offerings of the company.
There is every form of outdoor
entertainment from the simple

RADICALS GET SURPRISE

The greatest feature of ma
tional Importance at the recent
elections was the collapse of the
claims of leaders of so-called
class movements in the United
States.
The socialist party polled near
er 1000, 600 votes than 5000, 600
which it claimed it would get
and the Farmer Labor party ex-
pected to receive hundreds of
thousands of votes from pro-
gressives of various parties. 1t
did not even dent the American
consciousness. The NNon-Parti-
san League believed it would
sweep several states, but it not
only failed to carry a single new
state or to elect an official of any
Importance in any one of them,
but it met disastrous reverses in
its own state, North Dakota.
Education of the public to the
radical affiliations and aims of all
these organizations and the de-
velopment of a sound public con-
sciousness is what defeated their
plans. AS the Dearborn Inde-
pendent says: The American
citizen makes a poor red. He is
not even a rose pink"

WOULD RETAIN OLD SYSTEM
Merchants Association Of New York
Opposes the Project to Establish
National Adjustment Boarda

The Merchants association Of New
York in its organ, Greater New York,
marshals its arguments in opposition
to the project to establish national ad-
3ustment boards to decide controver-
sizes between railroad officials and en-
ployees. Opinions are quoted from
similar organizations In reply to a
questionable recently sent out by the
New York association.
"These boards were first established
by the national government when
It had control Of the railroads for the
purpose Of facilitating settlements Of
such disputes" the Merchants asa
ISOLATION says. "They went out of ex-
istence when the roads were returned
to their owners by the government, and
the railroad labor unions are exceed
ingly anxious to have them continued
90 that authority over the settlement
Of controversies, and consequently over
the operation Of the roads, shall be
centralized.
'There was considerable sentiment
among the railroad managers them
selves in favor Of this idea as sim
plifying procedure, but the plan con-
t%ensplated no representation on the adj
justment boards for the public and
consequently a protest avowedly in the
public interest is being made by COM

Return To Open Shop Is
Projected Against
Labor
TO FIGHT N. P. L.
Would Block Duluth To
Gulf Waterway
Plans :

Intoxicated by the recent Republic
can landslide which resulted in the
election of Senator Harding to the
presidency and believing themselves
unconquerable masters of the United
States, the group of vast monied in
terests organized under the banner Of
the United States Chamber of Com
merce have mapped out a "rule-or-
ruin" policy to be pursued %ruthlessly
during the next year. Following are
the slogans of the Plutocracy:
First, a return to the open shop
throughout the United States. All
labor unions must be mercilessly
crushed. Charges will be framed
against union organizers whenever
possible, and they will be gaoled with
out delay is the report from many
quarters.
Second, the plan to construct a SER
les of canals so as to form a naviga-
BILE waterway from Duluth to the
Gulf of St. Lawrence must be sabot-
aged at all costs. Were this project
to go through, wheat growers of the
Northwest might decide to grind their
own flour, ship it by rail to Duluth
following which there would be an un-
INSTRUCTED water route via the Gulf
of St. Lawrence, to European mar
kets. The United States Chamber of
Commerce processes to see a hidden
menace to grain gamblers in such a
project, and orders have gone out to
block it..
Smash N. P. L. Program
The third slogan of the big monied
interests is "smash the North Dakota
Farmer-Labor Program" The United
States Chamber of Commerce promises
to cooperate in every way possible
with the anti-farmer-labor element in
North Dakota to "put the Bank of
North Dakota and the state mill and
elevator out. of commission, if posi-
BILE.
Various lines of procedure have
been suggested by the silk-hatted
leaders in the Chamber of Commerce
for wrecking the North Dakota pro-
gram. I. V. A. banker-politicians are
advised to spread as many lies as
possible about it, initiate laws design
ed to prevent from functioning and
circulate petitions every few months
asking for the recall of state officers
pledged to the League program.
"~Confidential" bulletins containing
these suggestions have been received
by Fargo business men during the
past few days. There will probably
never be a more opportune time thar
the next few months, according to the
Plutocracy, for using it's Iron Hee!

hours of work that others receive, no
more, no less. But we feel that this
is the last CALL" he said. IF no at
tention is paid to this now by bankers,
manufacturers, railroads and labor or
CARNATIONS, and if the government
continues to use its great power to
import raw materials free of duty to
reduce costs, then the grange will be
the first to help organize nation wide
selling organizations which shall fix
the price of farm products.

will be driven to it in self defense to

Aids Workers to Build Homes.

Aids Workers to Build Homes.
1.-THE demand for homes has become
sc acute throughout the country as to
make it imperative that employers of
labor do something to remedy the sit
uation," said Joseph p. Darcy, Of Los
Angeles. IF men are to be gotten to
do the nations work, they and their
families must be properly housed. If
proper housing conditions cannot be
obtained through the ordinary means.
then special efforts must be made to
that end.
1.-THE Los Angeles Street Railway
company was constantly annoyed by
what is called the labor turnover
strikes and other disturbances, and
found It's men dissatisfied because Of
their inability to obtain homes for
themselves and families. The COM
pany has proposed a plan to meet this
issue. It has created a revolving fund
of $15O,O0O, to be loaned to employees
for the building and purchase Of
homes. The loans are to be paid back
in installments to the fund, with a
nominal amount of interest. This plan
a be applied by similar corporations
to, the housing situation which con-
fronts their employees. Whether it be
one employee or hundreds In need OF
homes, the principle Is the same. The
employer should realize that it Is to
his advantage to have workmen con-
tented and with a tranquil home life"

ASKS FOR VOCATIONAL
TRAINING FOR M

Women and girls who proved
their adaptability to machine

of the woman's bureau of the
Department of Labor advocates
In a special report.
State and other vocational
schools, Miss Anderson said, few
of which now admit women,
should in all cases be opened to
them, and women must be en-
couraged to attend if they are to
"reach the more skilled and re-
munerative jobs now held by
men," In the light trades af-
fording the best opportunity for
women were included manufac-
ture of optical and ether instru-
ments and the furniture and

Japs curtail Cotton Manufacture.

Japs CurtaiI Cotton Manufacture.
The Japanese Cotton Spinners' union
has decided on the extension of the
period Of the curtailment of the I'M
facture of cotton yarns and to reduce
the manufacture by 40 per cent in
stead of 80 per cent. Furthermore, the
union has passed a resolution to try
and increase the export of the &C.
cumulating stocks to American and
other foreign markets.
Inquiries for the expectation Of
goods to the United States have been
made, but the result has proved unsat-
4sfactory. The market price Of cot
ton yarns in the United States at
present is lower than the rate quoted
In Japan and the rate proposed by
Japanese exporters is about two cents
higher than the American rate per
yard.
Under these circumstances the ex-
portation Of Japanese manufactures to
America seems hopeless at present,
and the same is true as to the ex-
portation Of cotton cloth.
