MESA GROWERS WILL ] PAY COTTON PACKERS
 4 CENTS PER POUND

MESA. Nov. 23 Approval of the present picking price of cotton or cents a pound and no desire to deviate either more or less from that price was voiced by the Mesa Cotton Grow CTS association at a special session held Monday night in the city hall over so growers of the Mesa district responded to the call for the meeting, which was held subsequent 10 the meeting of Saturday night fin Phoenix when the suggestion was offered 10 reduce picking to cents pound.
 The reduction of picking to the pro- posed 3-cent rate was discussed pro and con and a motion finally offered to make the reduction was tabled by a majority vote of the growers. The question then arose on the possibility of some growers paying more than tne i-cent rate. and after some discussion the board of directors and officers of the association were empowered to visit the banks and gins with a view of CNIrtailing all assistance possible to any grower who offered more than the established f cents per pound for picking.
 A decreased acreage planted to cot ton in the Mesa district next season is evident from the expressions made at the Monday night meeting. Reduc- 
 per cent, but half a dozen of the growers present indicating that they will replant their acreage next year.
 c. C. Spilsburg, secretary of the Mesa Cotton Growers association. was chosen by the membership as a delegate to the Arizona Cotton Crow CTS association. and will thereafter represent the local growers in the labor handling body at Tempe.

HOW COIORS ARE HEARD

Color hearing, or chromaesthesia the
constant association Of colors with words,
letters. musical notes and noises, is in
herent, the New Orleans Times Pcayune
says. in one Of every eight persons.
few years ago a noted physician told
his audience that the day was not far dis
tant when sound would be seen and color
heard and time has rcaffirmed his state
ment 1t seems incredible that a beam of
light can produce sound, yet it has been
accomplished by throwing a ray Of sun
light through lens on a glass vessel
containing lampblack, or colored silk or
worsted. or any similar substance. A disk
having Sits or openings cut In 1t is made
to revolve swiftly in the beam OF light SO
az to "cut it up" into alternate flashes OF
light and shadow. When the ear is placed
to the glass vessel the sensitive ear can
distinguish strange, faint sounds as long
as the flashing beam fall upon the vessel.
a still more extraordinary effect Is pro-
duced when the beam Of sunlight is first
made to pass through prism. so as to
produce what Is known as the solar spec
trum. The disk 10 turned so that the col
ored light of the rainbow passes through
it and is alternately interrupted and trans
mitted by IL. Now. II the ear be placed to
the glass vessel containing the silk or
other material, 1t will be noticed that the
colored lights Of certain parts of the spec
trIm will make sounds and those of other
parts will not. For example, II the glass
vessel contains red worsted and the green
| light is flashed upon II, there will be com
psratively loud sounds, and when the red
and blue parts of the rainbow upon the
vessel there will he faint sounds; but
kpthsr colors will produce no sounds at all

EDUCATION IN VERMONT
fFrom the New York Sun -Heraid)

From the report Of the Carnegie Foun-
dalton for the Advancement Of Teaching
We learn that the State of Vermont has
the enviabe distinction of paying its
commissioner Of educa ton more than any
other State officer, including the Governor
Tho Carnegie Foundation is naturally in
clncd to emphasize the value of good edu-
cation and the inference is that it would
be highly pleased to see every State in
the Union follow the lead of Vermont
II is doubtless true that the teaching
profession. lock. stock and barrel. is dis
gracefully underpaid. The commissioner
of education at Washington. who comes
under the jurisdiction of the department
of the interior. draws a smaller salary
than the director Of geologic survey or
the commissioner Of fisheries. and vet
most of us agree that education Is OF as
much Importance to the national we'll
being as an accurate survey of the Mojave
desert or the adequate protection of tho
salmon spawning grounds. But does it
necessarily follow that commissioners Of
education are more worthy Of reward than
State governors? OF that. following the
example of Vermont. the chief commits
sioner in Washington should De more
highly paid than the President?
Plato maintained that the head Of the
State should also be director Of educa-
ton, but Plato never dreamed Of State
containing over n hundred million inhabi-
tants. When the report Of the Carnegie
Foundation goes on to say that Plato's
provision expresses the unavoidable per-
spective in complete Democracy" 1t is
difficult to understand the exact mea ming
mplisd. Possibly our law makers arc not
great artists, Cor it is only among tho
greatest of these that true perspective
is unavailable.
Whether the, post of commissioner CT
education will ever be generally exalted
TO the Level fgovernor is doubtful but
it is worth our while to watch Vermont's
bid for intellectual supremacy. Possibly
, the next report from the Carnegie Found
alton will show that the Green Mountain
boys are more highly educated than those
of neighboring States. In that case State
governors will have to make way before
the triumphal progress Of the education
commissioners.

VERMONT AS A TOURIST MECCA

II we are to make the Green Mountain
region the tourist mecca it deserves to
become. we must do a number of things.
Fart Of those we must do for ourselves
and part almost wholly for our visitors
We have already shown that we must
have trunk line system Of enduring
highways and good connecting roads for
the economical transportation Of our farm
products on the way TO the home or for
eign market as well AS the trucking Of
necessities back to the farm. The same
improved highways that furnish economi-
cal transportation for our own people will
also help to attract more tourists.
We must also have more summer hotels.
In commenting on what we said in this
connection about the need of a big sum-
mer hotel in tho region Of Mount Mans
field the Barre Times says:
Just as soon as one person or a cor
poration has the courage to start the con-
etruction of A summer hotel In the noun
tains Of Vermont will come the beginning
Of the real summer hotel business in YER
mont Until then the State will be getting
merely the fringe Of the summer hotel
business in our all-the-year hotels. The
natural location for the heart Of the sum-
mer hotel business will he in the region
Of Mount Mansfield and Smugglers
Notch. section where many beauties OF
nature are concentrated. hotel built
near the foot Of Mount Mansfield would
be calculated to attract a large number
Of people from the cities; and IL the sum.
mer hotels in New Hampshire are pay
ing ventures there he no reason why a few
summer hotels in Vermont should not be
made to do the same
We need also more good clean and at.
tractfve boarding houses and more cot
tages along the shores Of our innumerable
lakes. There is a constantly increasing
call for accommodations Of all kinds for
summer residents and tourists.
DR.. L. J. Paris also tells us that people
are sending him scores Of letters a week

club and the mountain trails. The Green
Mountains are coming into their own full.

WHERE THE FORESTS ARE

Canada in the extent of her forests
leads all other countries for which est-
mates have been made. She possesses,
roughly speaking, more than 100000, 0oo
acres OF forest-covered land. as against
about 4SOo0o'0oO acres in the United
States.
Russia is credited with about 4ss, 900, 00c
acres, about 100000 more than the
United States. India has about IS. ooO, 0OC
acres. France 20,0O0.OOO and the British
Isles about 2.695.O0O, The figures do not
include Africa or South America, both
