This research work was undertaken in a desire to place before the Arizona public a product which would over s,me the objection able features which had previously been offered against other brands of western canned milk"
 Within few weeks after the prod ucs was first placed upon the market the manufacturers realized that these painstaking efforts were appreciated. Prior to the time "Maricopa" was first placed upon the market there was half dozen brands of evaporat- ~ milk on the shelves of local gro- rers- To attempt to supplant them with an unadvertised, new brand Presented many problems. The local wholesale grocers. while really wish ing to support a local product, felt that too many brands of evaporated milk were already being handled in the valley. and the creamery found f4 necessary to carry the new product u1rect 10 the retail grocers- George Nickel. of the Arizona Grocery corc- rAiay. with his well-known disposition "a support local products, purchased a cases Of the first .Marieopa' milk made.
 Jnknown to the manufacturers he then gathered up samples of all the different brands of evaporated milk eaid hS Phoenix merchants, and sub- m@ttcd these. for analysis to one of the foremost mil6 laboratories in tie Cnited States When the laboratory report came back, he purchased a carload of "Maricopa." Since then he has continued to buy in carload lots ard is now purchasing no other brand of evaporated milk for his four large retail stores. Similarly, Art Wetzler F. E. Patton, Ralph Summers. and many others purchased orders and Immediately followed these up with 5rders for larger quantities.

Members of the team feel highly elated over their ,sho owing at Los An geles. In fact, their work in the competitive drills was surprise to team members themselves for. they hardly expected to accomplish such eight short weeks of drilling practice. 1 Yet it is a fact, shown in the rec 1 ords of judges, that the baby

A federal law to cover lynching. mob violence and rioting, interstate commerce commission action toward securing equal railroad acoommoda- tions for all American citizens, white or colored, government assistance in distribution of the overflow negro population in the north-these were the points brought out by Mrs. Joanna 1 Snowden Porter of Chicago in an ad- dress before the Northwestern Feder- ation of Colored Women's clubs at the I Monroe school last evening.
 Mrs. Porter, who Is president of the federation, made her talk after the delegates were welcomed by Ernest Hall, secretary of state, for the state, ! and representatives of the county and city extended their greetings 70 the club women, who will be in session
 here for the next three days.
 Mrs. Porter, who was introduced by Mrs. Lynn Ross Carter. president oi
 the state federation, during the course
 of her discussion recommended that her suggestions be incorporated 1T
 resolutions and that the delegates | urge their congressman to take actior
 in their behalf.
 Because federal laws are not a.
 elastic as state laws, Mrs. Porte'
 would have the government frame tns

 court to handle the cases.

preliminary research work conducted by the company, 1t was determined that the government standards es- tablished by the department of agri- culture for evaporated milk would not satisfy the manufacturers of '.Maricopa." The company proposed to make milk of higher butterfat and milk solids precentage than that demanded at Washing ton. As the outside brands, one by one, dropped out of the local market. "Marico2a'' gradually supplanted them until il finally gained it's present enviabie position.
 Through the discouraging period following the cotton furry, while the great exodus of COWS was taking place. the vacuum pans of the Mari copa Creamery company continued tc turn out 'Maricopa" milk, convert ing hundreds of families. who had never before used evaporated milk, te the idea of the modern milkman. Though it was freely predicted by many that the local dairy industry was gone, and that nothing but fam fly COWS would be left in the Salt River valley, the Maricopa Creamery company steadfastly refused to clost it. doors. and is the only condenser, in the state which had the confidence in the dairy COW to keep running.

 equalled by any condensery in tn I country during the war. The com 1 pany attributes it's remarkable sue cess in this respect to the fact iha

proximately 100000 men are out OF
employment in the state Of Illinois, ac-
cording 10 the best available figures
on the labor situation here.
Reports from various employment
districts under state supervision, how
ever. show a gradual trend toward inn
provoment. Banks are beginning to
loosen their credit, which, employers
say. is always the one good sign that
business is undergoing a change for
the better.
Inactivity among the building trades
aud machine work has thrown many
skilled men out of work, but the ma
iarity OF unemployed is unskilled.
The fullest cooperation is being
welded between the state free employ
ment offices and the manufacturers
and employers to relieve unemDloy-
ment. The American Legion also is
aiding in the placing Of ex-soldiers in
work and have done much good in
the state. especially in Chicago.
