 Mir. Reid's report follows in part, the two letters mentioned being those published in The Republican yesterday morning:
 In accordance with instructions and resolutions of May 2, Frank Stewart and myself made a trip to Washing ton to take up the matter of deferring construction charges past due Decem- Der 1. 1920-S203,32o and the charges which become due December I, 1921-s406, ,640.SS, or a total of s609. .961. g. for a period of one year or more.
 Upon our arrival in Washington we got in touch with Senators Ashurst and Cameron, and Congressman Hayden regarding the matter and made an appointment with the Sec retary of the Interior and laid our case before him. He advised us to wait over a few days during which time he would investigate in order to see that he had sufficien authority under House Resolution 52 which had just been passed both the house and senate to grant the extension as per our request },
 After giving the matter careful consideration the secretary decided that he had sufficient authority to grant the extension. however, would not have authority to waive the pen aIty or change the time of the con- tract.

LESS COTTON ACRES BUT BETTER FARMED

Acreage in the Salt River valley planted to long staple cotton this year is about one-third of what it was a year ago. according to a rough survey made by H. C. Heard. county agricultural agent
 It is estimated that at present there are about 60,000 acres planted to cotton under the Salt River proj ect. In the entire county. 1t is said, the figure will run to about 1s.Ooo acres. Last year the total cotton acreage amounted to about 1S5,eoo or 19O. 900 acres.
 ''On the whole. the crop this year is in better shape than II was a year ago" said Mir. Heard. "I mean that what cotton we have gives promise of producing a better yield. Of course. much can happen between now and the time the crop is matured. but under normal conditions and with judicial handling we are looking for a better yield per acre. There are in- stances where the crop is not doing as well as it could do because of lack of money with which to work l the crop as 1t should be worked" MT. Heard added that It is evident this years cotton is being grown on land particularly well e5artcd to cot ton. This. he said, will tend 10 in crease the yield per acre.

SEND BILLS AGAINST
 STATE PROMPT

Discovered. a man who runs after his bills rather than away from them. The man is Clayton Bennett. secre- tary to the board of directors of state institutions. who urges all merchants having claims against state institu- tions to file them at once.
 All bills must be Mesented by June 20 if the merchants want prompt pay ment- If they fan to have their claims filed by this date it will be impossible for the state to make pay ment out Of this years fund and no action can be taken until relief can be secured from the legislature.
 In speaking of the states settle ment of accounts Mir. Bennett said that any indebtedness incurred in one fiscal year cannot be paid from funds of another fiscal year under the laws of Arizona.
 Although there is talk of hard times the merchants never appear to be in a hurry to collect from the state and Mir. Bennett frequently feels called upon to remind them of the states obligation in order that 1t may be paid in the proper time.

poses with the maximum time or two years for such loanss and that he was in favor of the passage of this legislation.
 My recommendations to the board will be that as soon as some of the points are cleared up with reference to the extension ith wthe director of the Reclamation Service that the collection of the last dollar of the assessmen for 1s20-21 be dispensed with together with the penalty; also money refunded those of our mem bers who have paid in this $l-00 which will go towards payment of the construction charges. Also that it will not be necessary to collect the $2.0o per acre provided for In our budget for 1921-22 which will leave only 09c per acre minimum charge together with the special construc- ton charge of sl.s5 or a total of s1.74 for 192122 which with this low charge should put our share holders in pretty good financial shape for the balance of this season and next
 While in Washington. we ap- peared before Chairman Fordney of the Tariff committee in he house l taking up the question of securing a ariff on long staple cottan and other
 
 Fordney indicated to us that he was favorable. After thorough discus sion with Chairman Fordney who indicated that he was favorable to a tariff on long staple cotton, he sug gested that we see Chairman Con- gressman Green of the sub commit tee who was working on the cotton schedule. We had a conference with Mir. Green and presented our. case however. there had been previously presented by Senator Ashurst and Mir Heard a very complete lot of data pertaining to the cost of pro- duction of long staple cotton in the | Salt River valley and the necessity for a tariff on the same. AeSsrs Fordney and Green indicated that they were favorable towards a tariff on cotton. However. we have beer unable to get an expression as ts just what amount we could expect them to recommend. We presented resolutions from the Farm Bureau the Chamber of Commerce, the Ari- zona Egyptian Cotton Growers as. sociation and the Pimacotton Grow. CTS association. and a resolution from the farmers and cotton growers re. | questing a tariff on cotton. It i, my opinion that if sufficient energy il devoted to this matter that if we d, not secure a satisfactory tariff fl the House that when the bill goes (, the Senate we will be able to get ar adequate tariff on our cotton whicl will protect us against foreign com petition.

LET THE PEOPLE SAY. WHETHER HOUSE BILL. 83 |S GOOD OR BAD.

Let the people decide whether house bill s5 Is good or bad. This Is the attitude of the Ar'zora Reclama- tion association comprising 2i proj- ects and representing sos. 900 acres Of land. with reference to the petitions being circulated against this measure.
 Do not sign these petitions unless you want to help block reclamation progress in Arizona is the warning note sounded by officers of the state association. House bill Ss simply provides for submitting to the people at special election a constitutional amendment which win permit the state to increase its indebtedness up to per cent Of the total assessed valuation to aid irrigation districts"
 This does not mean. they point out. that the state would finance these districts. IL does provide a means. however. which will allow every feas- ible reclamation project to finance it. self This would be accomplished through an exchange of irrigation district bonds. which would find a ready market. Before any distric; can enter into this arrangement. however. the feasibility of the project must be approved by five state off cials.
 There is not one chance in a thou sand for the state to lose. according to friends of S3. For each district approved by the state. a special fund is created. Taxes assessed against the lands of the district are used tc pay off the principal and interest al per cent. and these funds are placed in the special state fund for that purpose Prom this fund the state pays off the per cent bonds issued by the state. retaining the 1 per cent difference for handling.
 The system Is similar to that ol California
 Speaking of the safety of the Cali. fornia irrigation district bonds. is. sued under the supervision and con trol of the state irrigation bond com. mission. l.. l.. Dennett in -Bont Buyer" says:
 There are today upwards of s25.. 100000 of these bonds issued undei the famous Wright act Of 1917. out. standing in California. which hay, been purchased mainly by local say. ings banks. insurance companies trustees. executors and guardians.
 There has never been a default ol loss of a dollar of either principal oi interest to any holder of these bonds It is a we'll known fact that no clas, of bonds are more popular among in formed investors In California toda, than these state approved irrigation district bonds. Incidentally the fed eral land bank is lending none, against California land in irrigation districts and these mortgages arr junior to the lien of the irrigation district bonds"

times.
Emperor Frederick II. Of Sicily. IN
1910 or 1241. published the first pure
food and drugs act. He was about 100
years ahead OF Oh. Wiley. for he speci-s
fed strict regulations Of the standard.
Of drug purity. and provided for drug
Inspectors. and fined all offenders.
-The practice Of medicine was also
regulated. A physician was required
to have diploma from a university
before he could study medicine: then
he took three-year course in the.
school Of medicine and one year prac-
tice under practicing physician. Spe-
ciaI post graduate work in anatomy
was required II he was to do surgery.
"All this was in the so-called dark
ages Even the fees Of physicians
and pharmacists we're strictly regulat-
ed BY law and were in purchasing val
ue about the same as the charges OF
the present day. Physicians were not
allowed to own drug stores and drug
sdulterators were severely dealt with.
Naturalization was the name Of the

Il had from 40 to so vegetable ingredi-
ents. few OF which had any real iae-
dlcinal value except opium, and these
drugs were blended with honey.
sit remained for Nero's physician,
Andromachus, to put the finishing
touches to this wonderful compound.
Andromachus added viper's flesh to the
formula and called his new compound
Theriaca. He wrote some verses dedi-
Gated to Nero, describing this medicine
and claiming virtues for it which in
our day would subject him to prosecu-
tion. Evidently he believed he had
created in this one compound verb

"Galen, one of the fathers Of mcdi-

WHAT'S IN SOME CkQ.
. GRAPHIC NAMES

Names Of such women as Joan Of
Arc and Edith Cavell are written in
delibly upon the hearts of people for
all ages. Generous and we'll deserved
tributes have been paid lastingly to

land, In the arctic circle, Is named for
the wife of Sir John franklin, the ex-

is perhaps no more beautiful story OF
untiring devotion and persistent eff
fort than that of Lady Jane Frank
lin who, after the failure Of many at
tempts. fitted ont ship which, though
1t brought back to her the definite
proof of the loss Of her husbands ex-
petition, established his achievement
Of his object.
The picturesque stories of the lit
