NEVIS OF INTEREST GATHERED
 HERE AND THERE IN THE STATE
WILL LOG AND MAP NORTHERN
 ROUTES TO WONDER PLACES

Practically every section of the northern part of Arizona that is of in- terest and which offers anything in way of scenic wonders, will be map ped and logged by c. E. Wilson, of the Gazette staff. Wilson will be ac- companied by his wife and party of | friends.
 This road mapping tour is for the purpose of advocating "Seeing Ari- zona First" and acquainting the mo- toring public with accurate road con- ditions as they now exist throughout the northern part of the state. The tour is to be made in a new Oldsmo- bile Eight, Thoroughbred" equipped with Goodyear tires, and known as the Oldsmobile-Goodyear Scout car.
 Practically every scenic point of in terest will be visited by the car which will include the Grand Canyon, Petri- fled Forest, White Mountains, prehis- toric cliff dwellings, Lake Mary, Nor mon lake, Montezuma wells, Stone mans lake, and many other scenic va cation spots. Because of lack of de- tailed information, but little is known of some of these wonderful works of nature, much of which far excels any thing of its kind to be found elsewhere in the world. Especially lacking is proper and clearly defined road infor- nation.
 At Stoneman's lake, scenic grandeur abounds in an indescribable wealth, nestling as it does, in an extinct vol canic crater, with it's shore bordered with towering pines, wild flowers and grass. Vividly colored, precipitous walls tower over the heads of the pines while the surrounding noun tains seem to safeguard its seclusion. Here it is said fish abound in innum- erable quantities, with grey squirrels numerous in the forest.
 It is just such points as these that will be clearly mapped for the benefit of the vacationist and justly advo- cated slogan, "See Arizona First."- Gazette.

EIGHTH ANNUAL. FAIR
 AT PRESCOTT OCT. 14-16

PRESCOTT, July 2l.-The eighth annual Northern Arizona State fair will be held at Prescott, October IA 15 and 16th. The officials of the as- sociation expect to make this years fair the most successful from every standpoint that has ever been held.
 H. D. Aitken, well known through out the state of Arizona, succeeds R, N. Fredericks, as the president of the association. Owing to the pressure of personal affairs, Fredericks, who has served the fair faithfully since its in ception, will be unable to give his time as president for this year, although his support and cooperation will be with the fair from start to finish. The other officials are: A. A. Johns, vice president; Frank G. Brown, treasurer; G. NJ. Sparkes, secretary and J. M. county vice-presidents are: Apache county, Fred T. Colter; Coconino, Lou Charlebois; Mohave, A. M. MacDuffee; Navajo, Ed Sawyer; Yavapai, w. w. Midgley. The boards of supervisors of the five northern counties com prise the executive committee of the association.
 In all departments of the fair work progress will be developed this year. The nature of the Northern Ar. izona State Fair is purely educational, the stimulation and encouragement of efficiency and excellence in the prod ucts of Northern Arizona being the prime purpose of the association. This fair has grown from "baby" tent fair into one of the leading institu- tions of the state, with permanent buildings in which to house the won derful agricultural, horticultural, live stock, mining, art, educational, culin- ary and needlework exhibits from the northern tier of counties.

GEORGE SCHAAL DEAD

Last Thursday evening, July 9th, the Silent Messenger lulled into eter- nal sleep George A. Schaal, one of our pioneer settlers and until about four years ago actively engaged in 'busi- ness.
 About seven years ago a stroke of paralysis affected the eye-sight of MT. Schaal, and gradually his vision failed until four years ago when he went to- tally blind. He was then compelled to dispose of his jewelry business, and most of his time was spent in search of medical relief, but without avail. During the past year he has been in the hospital at Albuquerque, but a sec ond stroke of paralysis early in June was forerunner of the approaching end, and at his request was brought back to his home in Winslow, where his last hours could be spent surround ed by his old friends and neighbors.- Winslow Mail.

SPECTACULAR BLAZE
 OCCURS AT JEROME

One of the most spectacular fires ever seen in this district occurred late Friday afternoon when the old coke bins of the United Verde Copper com pany caught fire, supposedly from cin- ders from a passing engine, and were destroyed. Atthe same time, the pipe leading from the big oil tanks broke at a point immediately opposite the bins and some 5000 gallons of fuel oil went up in a pillar of black smoke that must have been visible fifty miles away.
 The bins were built of heavy tim bers and were 160 feet long by 25 wide at top, tapering down to practi- cally a point at the bottom. They were built many years ago for the coke supply of the old smelter and would soon have been taken down as part of the program of mine improve ment that is now under way. With the bins, the 115-foot trestle leading up to them was also destroyed.-Jer- ome News.

STANDARDIZATION PAYS
 LARGE DIVIDENDS

New Mexican growers of pinto beans avow that before long "New Mexican pinto beans" will be regular article of food in every household in the coun- try. Already the pinto-bean market has extended beyond the boundary lines of the producing states.
 Although this has been due in large measure to cooperative marketing, say specialists of the bureau of mar kets, United States department of ag- riculture, certain conditions had or: iginally to exist in order to make pos. sible the success that is being achiev. ed. One of these was the standardiza. ton of the product.
 Up to few years ago New Mexico pinto beans were grown in variety of colors. There were green spotted beans, green and white beans, salmon and white.

GOOD HEALTH FOR JUNE

It is interesting to note the falling off of communicable diseases for the month of June, reports the state board of health. This is particularly true ot the incidence of smallpox. Since the first of the year, the number of cases has gradually increased until May when 55 cases were reported from five counties. During June, the number oi cases dropped to 15.
 In Gila county there were 16 cases of scarlet fever, 2 cases in Graham and in Yavapai.
 Of the other communicable diseases the number of cases were negligible Maricopa and Pinal counties reported one case each of infantile paralysis Cochise reported case of malta fever disease contracted from goats.
 Statistics Show Growth.
 An examination of the births and deaths reported to the Arizona state board of health at different periods is of considerable interest. The first number of the quarterly bulletin of the health department issued Nov. 1, 1907 shows the births to have been at the annual rate of 1,212 and the deaths 1888. For the year ending June 30 1910, there were 3,054 deaths. The deaths for 1919 numbered 5,040. In 1918, the influenza epidemic brought the death list to 6,623. The births for 1918 were 6,257; for 1919, 6,591.

 VALUATION FOR MOHAVE co.

The abstract of Mohave county's taxroll shows gain over last year of about $150,000 although the mines of Oatman shows a depreciation of more than $40O,000. The falling off in the production of the Oatman mines for the past year was due entirely to the lack of miners and other labor, and not to any depreciation in the value of ore.
 With full crews of miners operating the mines of this county the balance of the year Mohave county next year will show big gains. The valuation for the year is close to $24,000, 900, which is not bad showing for old Mo have.-Kingman Miner.
