 Remember your friend in the ''cacti land," Where the pours down the burning sand, Where the blue sky smiles in a laughing jeer, And the white heat dries the homesick tear. Remember your friends with the horned toads. Where the rattlesnake winds the desert roads, Remember dear for year and half, Then welcome home with jollie laugh (NOT FORGETTING THE FATTED CALF).
 1921 The year and a half infants dream, The fatted calf ghastly scream But remember dear all parched and brown, Veering away from the modern town Hiking along the desert bleak, Grey and weary, to tired to speak, Clothes worn out, shoes down, How would l look in modern town?
  Tell me Prophecies, tell me clear. When will the Verde waters be here? Tell Oracle, tell me straight. How much longer must wait? When will the desert bloom the rose?" When I get some smart new clothes? The Man with Hoe plutocrat, Compared with the life of the Desert Rat.

MANY WORKING
 OUT ON ROADS
Wagons, Teams, Automobiles and Personal Workers With Implements Go Out in Body to Repair Emmet Road.

Pursuant to call by "Mr o. K. Everybody" ably backed by J. A. Bailey and Judge G. R. Haynie, 6 creditable delegation of personal workers, in automobiles, wagons and afoot, congregated at the corner of West Front and Elm streets this morning few minutes before the ap- pointed time, 8 o'clock, the crowd left for the scene of the worst places on the Prescott-Emmet road, where they will spend the day repairing, and as nearly as possible, build road to the border town, which as everyone knows is in as bad condition as it could be and still retain it's name as being road.
 A hearty response was had to the legal warning" and everybody who went out this morning was dressed for work, some in overalls and others in different kinds of work clothes. With the crew that left here this morning, eight or ten hours with picks and shovels and road scrapers will have telling effect on Nevada county's standing disgrace, which is known far and wide for it's absolutely impossible condition at all times of the year. Reports from the crews are to the effect that, everybody IS working full time, and with the ex- ception of half an hour spent at lunch at the overfowing well near Carouse creek, the volunteer road builders are making every minute count for Ne vada county's future Bankhead route. Road Overseer Sampson and County Judge Franks are in charge of the experimenting, but they are among the workers too. No accurate report of the actual work done is available, but we feel that in tomorrow's paper we will be able to make report wor- thy of the aggregation of determined men who are giving day that we might have a passable road through the county.

been completed by the war finance
corporation, officials said recently. The
corporation probably will be ready
within short time to function under

was said.
To expedite the advances executive
committees are being formed in agri-

preliminary details of applications
making the necessary investigations
and determining the adequacy of Sc

committees are being formed now and

The corporations policy for finan-
cling advances, officials asserted, has
not yet been definitely decided, but it
is believed that little of the $500, OOO,.
900 balance with the treasury will be
used for agricultural credits. Demands
may be made on the treasury to make
the first loans officials declared, but
as soon as the volume of needed cred.
