W|CKENBURG FAST BECOMING \ CITY
 IF MUCH PROMISE

WICKENBURG July c.-Wicken- burg is coming out of the has been" class and is giving Father Time Q kick in the anatomy that will pass him along to posterity. Meantime the new Wick enburg spirit has got off his swad dIings and is taking on q swagger that is already putting 1t in the producing. class. There was a transmission of new energy instilled here last winter and it is gratifying to see how it has taken root among the cattle, sheep and goat raisers, including the farmers, who have planted about 50 acres of cotton in the district this year.
 The successful cotton crop produced by one farmer was the incentive for tEe planting of many more acres by other men Another farmer has increased his honey output to more than 500 stands.
 All interest heretofore has been cen tered in mines, and advantages of soD and climate have been overlooked. In a few years 1t is predicted that Wick enburg will be the foothiu summer and winter resort for many PhOenicfanS who will find here the advantages they all are searching for to make life happy. The transition is the most natural thing that can happen and the overflow fro@A Phoenix, which is already anxious about its housing problem, is expected to help populate Wicl<enburg.
 These advantages and natural re- sources of Wickenburg are already at tracting interest and her Fourth of July celebration is only a little diver sion for those who stay at home Most of those who can will visit Phoenix and Prescott at this time of the year. Wick enburgs chief effort to entertain will be made every spring when the cow boys and cattlemen with their herds are wintering here.
 The 17th of Ireland" is the name oi the day celebrated in Wickenburg, on which date there will be a. big pro- Rram of cowboy sports to make the occasion worthy of the name.
 When the board of supervisors car ries out the plans it has long adver- tsed, such as building a permanent suspension bridge across the Hassa- yampa river and accepting the right of-way for an l-Maricopa highway to Wickenburg, it's relations with the cap tta1 city will be more congeniaI and sympathetic. These plans will be full filled in due time, but the Wickenburg of today is not the Wickenburg of 4C years ago. It does not propose to wait for unborn generations to enjy what is hers by right at the present time.
 The political power of this growins city Is no longer in the hands of ar undertaken. The new council is made mp of men who are alive. The publi- cation which guards the destinies oi Wtckenburg is also alive, and an elastic development program is in progres. which should bring a larger and morS general prosperity than has ever be- fore been known

of the association has grown to more than four times the last years total and is growing faster all the time
 During the recent visit of the eAele- gation Of Imperial valley cotton grow CTS to the Salt River valley they took occasion to look into the objects ot, and the results attained by the association, and urged that it's work be extended for the benefit of the farmers of southeastern California.
 National Recognition
 The good work done by this associa- tion is becoming so generally recog- nized that it is becoming famous all over the country Recent articles on the activities and successes of the or ganization have appeared in the Okla homa Farmer -Stockman, the Dallas Semi Weekly Farm News, Cotton and Cotton Oil News, and in this weeks Country Gentleman, the biggest and the oldest agricultural magazine in America
 The article in the Country Gentle man, entitled Pima, the King tells in detail the history of the Pima cotton industry in Arizona, gives the proper credit to the Tempe exchange for their invaluable work in keeping the seed pure, and then goes on to say: Tn addition to the Tempe Cotton eX change, another cooperative associa- tion has been formed under the com prehensiye title of the Arizona Amer jean Egyptian Cotton Growers asso- citation.
 Robert r. Garnett, a director of the association, explains the reason for it. together with something of its purpose and methods He says:
 Tn times past, bearing the market has been a favorite diversion among the buyers of all sorts of cotton, and the buyers in the Salt River valley have been no exception to this rule.
 This practice has been the means of losing a great deal of money for the majority of growers and of making much money for the few dealers. The reason for the success of this maneuv ering has been, in the language of a leading grower, just plain ignorance of our own business
 "So a. number of the growers whose | experience had shown them most | plainly the imperative need of cooper ation and of real marketing informa ton incorporated the Arizona Ameri- | can Egyptian Cotton Growers asSocia- | ton and pledged their personal credits l at the banks to pay it's expenses, re- | lying upon the hard common sense of the rest of the growers for co-opera- tion and the bearing of their propor- l ton of the expense.
 ! That the work of the association | has several times materially raised | the price of both lint cotton and seed | is not to be doubted. Their worS last
 season made the growers, at a con 1 servative estimate, more than two mil | lion dollars over what they would have received for their crop."

The remarkable success of the CO., operative marketing department of the American Egyptian Cotton Growers association is being used as an example to lead toward the light some of the more backward districts in the cotton belt, as is shown by the ar ticle reproduced below.
 This article appeared in the Manu lecturers Record of Baltimore. which is rated as the biggest and most in fluential weekly in it's class, and has stood consistently in favor of the co operative movement among cotton growers.
 Every state in the south should adopt methods of cooperative mar keting which will enable growers to sell cotton at a profit, urges Harvle Jordan in calling attention to the work along this line by the Arizona dlVlslon of the American Cotton association.
 (Iarvie Jordan is the secretary of the American Cotton association. with headquarters at the state house, At lanta, Ga.)
 Cooperative marketing is said to have proven decided success in Ari- zona, as compared with individual marketing. Not only better prices than the prevailing local market have been secured for the members of the asso- citation, but better prices for small lots for single individuals have been ob- tained, and from the same buyers ana for the same lots of cotton.
 ''Not only was the top of the market for both seed and lint received throughout the season, but the mem bership, by keeping informed as to the actual value of their cotton, were en- abled to more intelligently market their own products, and thus secure better prices for themselves.
 The (Arizona) association states that in common justice all agree that the seller of a product should know as much about it's value as the buyer Given this information and the proper financing, the farmer is placed in posi- tion to demand a fairly profitable price for his product. It is on this principle that the operations of the association are based
 Got Results
 ''As direct result of the associa- tion's efforts, it is believed that the cotton growers of the Salt River valley received last season at least S2,000, 00( more for their seed and lint than they would have received otherwise, by virtue of the information received and distributed, and the sales made. l This was accomplished with mem 1 bership of approximately only 10 pel cent of the total acreage in cotton ir 1 the Salt River valley. At the end ol ! the planting season this spring ths association reports that it's member l ship was three times what it totalee 1 last year, and will undoubtedly pas. the 50 per cent mark before fall" l Since the above article was writer for the Manufacturers Record tn

 But my husband was not waiting at home to listen to my explanation, to kiss and to make up. It was day of said mischances. I determined to be ruled by them no longer. It was ridic- ulous 10 be so unhappy because Bob had not been at the other end of the wire when l tried to phone him that was undertaking a disagreeable ex- ploit-for the honor of the family! It was absurd to let Ann Lorimer put her little finger in my domestic affairs.
 I would have done with mischances, 1 would be master of my fate, I would model the remainder Of the day in a sane and logical manner.
 So set to work in just the ordinary way of the average loving wife, the way which usually leads to success: ] prepared an especially dainty dinner for my loving husband. I spread the table with my finest linen and upon it I arranged the Copenhagen china which Bob approves so highly.
