Honduras and Salvador, under federal government after the manner of the United States It makes country pop ulous Ireland three times Ireands Nicaragua and Costa Rica may yet join making country inter vening between Mexico and Panama
 There was such union 80 years ago. 1t the logical thing There is nearly every essential element of successsnilar race language religion, culture and pol tca institutions. There is also the common bond of dis

BUILD FROM INSIDE OUT

Ross Crane is artist who goes about the country ransating artistic homes into terms which the ordinary householder understand and afford. He gives this advice to hOme-builders:
 Build from the inside out. Find room for all your furniture before you build your walls. And let the win dows come where they With suitability comes beau ty."
 It is building code too little followed As result comes house after house with proper wall space in v room for the piano. davenport and omnipresent ro; dining rooms in which the serving table forever in ereres with the swing door into the kitchen kitchens where the stove stands in the shadow, and bedrooms "with place for the bed'' Artistic arrangement of furniture in such house is impossible. What is worse, so is arrangement for comfort and convenience.
 It is believed that home building will begin up large scale Houses built from the inside out MT Crane suggests, will have undreamed of possibilities for harmony and beauty, and be homes in the fullest sense yet will cost more than houses built oldfashoned principles.

ST. DAVID SCHOOL BOYS DO FINE WORK
 IN JUDGING EVENT

DOUGLAS, Nov 26.-Twelve boys from the St David high school were the only ones to enter the competitive judging contest at the county fair and consequently took all the prizes, Uu. der the tutoring of Prof J. J. Smith the lads have developed a remarkable ability in choosing the points of cat .le, according to r.. B. Stanley, who is here from the university judging the livestock. 4 ring of five white chester gilts and one of six Hereford pulls were judged by the boys. Eff teen minutes were allowed the boys to make their placings in each ring and three minutes to state their reas- ons orally before the judge.
 The boys did remarkably well con side-ing their limited experience in judging MT. Stanley declared. They show promise of developing into competent judges of livestock. Should they be matched with some older and more experienced stockmen in their community I dare say these boys would do equally as well, if not bet. It is just such training and exper. fence in competitive judging which enables our boys to become success ful stockmen and there are 3 few les sons in judging an animal that some ot the older boys in the stock bus;- ness might well profit by when se- lecting bulls"

What remains of the shoulder blade at the wides. part. near the socket, is more than foot in width and the length of if is more than two feet. but both the length and the width are but a small part evidently of the original diner. sions, for nearby were broken pieces of this bone. Both bones were heav fly sand-encrusted. accounting fer their state of preservation.
 The other exhibit consists of two olias, or, rather, one ola and a bow, shaped vessel. The olIa is a burial urn. containing small particles Of bones which had been partly burned These ollas are found in all parts o: the country. especially in regions in. tabited by the mound-builders.

 This summer. the demand for breeding hogs in Cochise began to re. vive, and requests for stock have been coming in from several sections of the state. The demand from Yuma county has been unusually strong. due to revived interest in the hos business and the good work of their county agent. M. N. Winslow. thru the County Farm Bureau

 While the prices asked for this breeding stock do not begin to com pare with what fsmers paid for the imported silts in 1920. yet they allow these same farmers few dollars per head over the cost Of production and mere than can be secured for c0m. mon stock
