'Dencieneies for 1870 and prior fiscal years,
All permanent and indefinite ap-
propriations were made in strict
accordance with the departmental
estimates and such increases or
decreases as were made may be
assumed as necessary.
In the regular annual appropria-
tion bills the largest increase was
for the Postoffice. The Postoffice
Department is largely self-support-
ing. but it will require rather skill
full management to make it pay the
tCtal of s574.ooo, 900 appropriated,
which is nearly s7o.0oO,ooe more
than for the previous year. The ap-
preparation for Agriculture was in
creased s4.70o,0Oe over the low
amount provided last year The
legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation was increased a.
'775,ooo; the consular and diplo-
matte service received an addi-
tional trifle of 100000 and the
District of Columbia an extra ST.
100000. The Rivers and Harbors
act was also increased S2,s5O,0 900.
Important reductions were made IN
the Army bill. amounting to a saw
ing of s4S,00O.000. Fortifications
were reduced nearly $1,000, 900;
pensions s13.650,00. and the sun
dry civil act cut s51,65O.OOO below
1921.
The question of most Importance
Is how will these appropriations
aftect our tax program To
large extent this will depend upon
the size OF the navy appropriation
ana the new army appropriation.

act is now more than $1,000, 900
acres. More than $1,000 applications
have been received by the United
States Geological Survey. and OF
this number nearly $4,000 have
been disposed Of, the great majority
of them by the designation Of the
lands involved.
Nearly 2l5.eeo acres were includ-
ed in formal orders designating the
land for entry as enlarged home
steads Of $50 acres or less. In SO far
as the land is public and vacant.
Most of this area, however. had al
ready been classified as OF the
stock-rsising, homestead type; that
is. 640-acre homestead land. Gen.
orally speaking, when not already
patented or entered, this land is
very arid. The action. therefore.
has little Significance to prospec-
tive homesteaders. Primarily. IL
represents the departments recog-
milton OF the fact that land desig-
mated as stock-rsising, homestead

Every citizen Of the United States physically fit and of an age from l6 to 35 will have an opportunity for a 3O-day vacation at no cost. and a vacation that cannot be surpassed It will be at the citizens military training camp which will be con- ducted by the war department under the national defense act.
 There will be 12 of these training camps For the purpose of holding these training camps the country has been divided into nine areas. called corps areas. Arizona lies within the Eighth Corps area and there will - two camps, one at Camp Travis. Tex. starting July IS. and the other st Fort Logan, Colo. starting August l.
 The object of these camps Is to bring together young men of high type from all sections of the coun- try on a common basis of equality and under the most favorable condi- tions of outdoor life: to stimulate and promote citizenship. patriotism, and Americanism; and. through ex- pert physical training. athletic coach ing. and military training. to benefit the young men individually and bring them to realize their obligations tc their country.

The Paige triumph IS now complete. From to 100 miles. all worlds official speed records for a stock chassis were captured by the Paige "6-66" Daytona Model at the Uniontown, Pa, track May 18th, 1921. Following a worlds stock chassis record made January 2lst. when the Paige "6-66" Daytona model covered measured mile in 35.01 seconds, the Uniontown performance caps the climax to a long series of amazing records.
 Paige, thus, has made clean sweep and stands today the unchallenged master of power and speed-the supreme and unique example among automotive products for heroic stamina and endurFce.
 When the mile record fell in January, Paige determined to make the record complete. With the officials of the A-A-A. racing board in charge, the track at Uniontown, Pa, was selected and Mulford driving a Daytona ''6-66" stock chassis was off to shatter rec ords that had remained unassailable since July 18th, 1917.

Paige Makes a Clean Sweep
Breaks Every Official Stock Chassis Record From to 100 Miles at UniontoDn Track
Speed-Power-Endurance

Speed-Power-Endurance When Paige 6-66" stock chassis made the fastest official time of the season for the Pike's Peak climb, some idea of its amaxing power and stamina was revealed under un- usual circumstances
 When on January 21st the Paige "6-66" Daytona model travelled at a rate of 102-8 miles an hour, thus setting an official worlds stock chassis record for mile, the heetness of the "6-66" was established
 When at 100 different points throughout the country 100 new local hill climbing records were made, the power of the Paige "6-66" became country wide sensation
 Now with these new records from to 100 miles, made without stop, Paige has incon- testably established its supreme powers of endurance, as well as of speed There could be no feat that answered all questions of su- premacy with greater finality.
 The lesson to the car owner is obvious No matter what price he may be willing to pay he can find no car on the market today that offers him more than the Paige "6-66." The record is complete, and Paige stands as the undisputed leader of all American sporting cara

A Clear, Stueep

A Cte0u StOeep The first five miles were covered at terrific pace, the electric timer recording minutes, 15:48 seconds, a speed of 9l.8 miles an hour. From there on the Paige came roaring over the officials wire with clock-likc regularity that ate up the miles greedily. Twenty-Five thirty, fifty minutes went by and there was no noticeable slackening of speed. When the Paige hundred across the tape at the end of the Tooth mile the feat had been accomplished.
 Tn the most consistent performance ever recorded the records had fallen. The five, ten, twenty twenty-five fifty, seventy-fve, 100-mile and One Hour records had been beaten in every instance by handsome margin.
 The official figures showed that Paige had covered the full century in one hour, min utes and 53.26 seconds, or 89 miles, 15l0 yards in 60 minutes-which is just 250 yards less than 90 miles. The former hour record was S3 miles.
