To many people the most important
considerations in the building of a
home are substantial construction and
comfort within. They are not keen
about a pretentious exterior or some
freakiSh design which will attract at
tentiOn. Rather, they prefer a house
of modest and popular lines, plain in
design, but radiating feature of good
old-fashiOned comfort. Too often in
the construction of house these fun
damental features are OVerShadOwed
by the demands of a faddish age and
as a result the finished structure is
far from attractive and in many cases
not at all comfortable or conveniently
arranged
These faults certainly cannot be
found in the Substantial, modest yet
pleasing home shown here. While it
is attractive, none of the more essen
tial features of real home have been
sacrificed to gain this effect. 1t is one
Of the thousands of houses of the same
type that are to be found in all sec
tons of the country. Built of frame
with a rOugh-faced concrete block
foundation, a little variety has been
gained in the outward appearance by
the use of shingles as siding above
the first story.
The front porch is wide, open and
spacious, adding to the frankness of

VERDE CANT CROP
 THIS YEAR BIGGER
Market in Copper Town Not So Bad and Prescott Buys Well,
 France Declares
iFrom Saturdays Daily)

The Verde valley will this year produce the heaviest crop of water melons and cantaloupes in its his tory, according to Frank France, of Aultman. He states that the corn acreage is also large and that the prospects are unusually good.
 Last season Oak creek farmers had a heavy crop of melons but the growers of the Verde planted few more than usual and a hailstorm ruined several large patches. This year the Verde folk are going to be in the melon market strong. They expect to begin hauling ripe melons to the markets about July 15, and the corn will be in sooner than that
 So far, says France, no difficulty has been experienced by the farmers in disposing of their fruit and pro- duce, though there is an impression that the towns of the Verde district are partially depopulated. About as much farm produce is being sold there as in former seasons, and those who are freighting their stuff to Prescott are finding the market good here.

SEEK TOEMPLOY UT TON PACKERS
From Sundays Daily)

A message received at the office of the Yavapai County Chamber of Commerce, from P K. Mines, Ari- zona immigration commissioner, states that 1t IS the hope and inten- tion, if possible, of the Arizona i'm migration bureau, to secure labor in Arizona this year to pick the cotton >rop of the Salt River and Yuma val !eys. Crop estimates of the United States department of agriculture indi- ate that the yield will be between 5000 and 10000 bales. The labor of 10000 people will be needed.
 According to Milnes 5000 will be available in Maricopa county for that purpose, which means that either the other 5000 must be secured in this
 tate or that number of Mexicans imported.
 The cooperation Of all commer- ;ial organizations has been asked in order to get line on the labor situ- ation.
 The Cotton Growers association offers two cents per pound. While the wages are small" said Mines,
 tHNy NOuIu dl lCdSl assure d llNtll- hood during period of unemploy- .nent. There are no determinate hours for working, that matter be- ng optional with the picker. Tents will be provided in the way of quar- .ers. Cotton is being raised upon an entirely different basis this year than .ast and it is necessary to curtail in every way possible in order for the grower to get the crop from the land md price for it that will reimburse him for his outlay; ill fact, the situa- ton does not look very hopeful from ,he cotton standpoint, particularly as the tariff bill provides no duty on long Egyptian staple, which means that this valley will be in a bad. way and that those who have engaged ill the industry will be forced not only to suffer large loss but to use their land for other purposes hereafter"
 Those interested in this matter are requested to leave their names and addresses at the chamber of com merce office, ground floor of the court house.

MEXICAN TRADE IS
 LARGE IN AMERICA
(By Associated Press)

FL PASO, Tex, July 8-Mexico's rate of consumption is so great that not only are nearly all of the pro- ducts of that country being con sumed there, but a steady demand is being made of the United States for raw matrials, foods, grains, machin- cry and agricultural implements.
 This announcement comes from the American consulate at Juarez, Mexico, where Consul John Dye has compiled data relative to Mexico's trade relations with the United States.
 Expectations from the United States to the southern republic are steadily increasing, customs officials report.
 Mexico's ranges, practically de pleted of livestock during the rev o1ution, are slowly being restocked.
 The United States is practically the only souerc of supply for the state of Chihuahua, according to the consular reports.
 Chihuahua citizens are poor be cause of the revolution and lack pur- chasing over, according to the re- ports, but anticipating large future purchases from the United States.
 Included in Mexico's exports to the United States are mineral ores, su- gar, vegetables, wooden products and miscellaneous articles.
 The southern republic, according to the report, is not as dependent on the United States for shoes and boots as heretofore. There are three shoe factories in Mexico City which are furnishing practically all the footwear for interior Mexico and tc large extent along the border. A lew tannery has also been opened there with modern tanning device: which prepare the hides for immedi lte use in the shoe factories.

 WORST BRONX
Fred Dugas Acquires $100 of Frontier Association Money When His Bucker Is Found to Have Scored 98 Points
(From Fridavs Dailvl

The wild, free, open and unrefined cattle ranges this year produced some regular bucking animals for the Frontier Days, as anyone who fol- lowed the saddle event can easily recollect. It will also be recalled that the association made a promise that it would pay a prize of $l0O to the man furnishing the most notable explosive in equine form. That prize has been awarded, and Fred Dugas of night Mayer is the winner with Sheepherder.
 When 'Omer smote his bloomin' pencil on the pad of scratch paper and finished his arithmetic on the bucking bronchos, he was able to an nounce that two judges had concur red in giving Sheepherder the best score on the cards, and that the three judges had furnished estimates from which it was possible to draw an average of 98 for this hoss. Only Billy Hell came near this score, which is regarded as remarkable. Mir. Woods (the 'Omer, above al luded to) figures on the bronks run something like this:
 l. Sheepherder, owned by Fred Dugas-9S.
 2 Billy Hell, owned by Lou Dan drea of Walker-90.
 5. Bootlegger, also owned by Dugas-90.
 4. Chris Totten, owned by Bill Coburn-90.
 5. Mad Woman, owned by Clar- ence Jaxon-86 2-3. 6. Chinaman, owned by Pat Car rol1-81 2-3
 7. Miss Highpocl1ets, owned by Shorty Ward-86 2-3.
 If the figures and dope do not i'm press you, maybe memory will come to your aid. Sheepherder was the cayuse that Harry Henderson rode on July 4, in such manner as to convince many that the Camp Verde rider, stumpy though he may be- stood among those elevated cow punchers upon whose brows shone the piercing light of coming fame.

EXTENSION IS ALL

 WHEN ORES TO BE
Gangway for copperl


 The United Verde Extension Min ing company is all set to unite, eX- tend and mine That is to say, the smelter end of the establishment is according to word from Jerome where it is given out that all of the repairing on the smelter is done.
 Things were rushing along at the U. V. X. and every time hammer whacked or a new brick was laid, somebody started a rumor that the smelter would be in operation the first of July. But now comes the semi-official announcement that it will be several months" before any thing can be done, and even that in definite period is made more vague by qualifying adjectives, adverbs and other forms of American language.
 General Manager George Kingdom is optimistic and is said to have re- gently notified foremen not to get entirely out of touch with the works, if they wanted to keep a string on their jobs. Maybe it was this that started the pathetically swallowed string of rumors about resuming operations.

NEW SYSTEM ON
 COUNTY ROADS
Maintenance Crews and Equip ment to Travel Roads, Keep ing Them in Condition, Under Supervisors New Plan
From Friday's Dailvl

County road work aside from the construction or improvement of high ways under the million and half high way improvement bond issue, is grad ually being placed on new and more practical basis, it was an nounced yesterday by w. w. Midg- ley, chairman of the board of super visors.
 ,"The new system is what might be termed an administrative system, Midgley said when explaining it. The change in the system of caring for the county roads is mainly directed to laterals, with the highway commis- sion mapping out the. improvement program for the main arteries.
 Maintenance crews are gradually being placed on roads throughout the county, oyer which they will travel, keeping them in good condi- ton. These crews consist of two men, truck and a grader. They will work along the roads during the day, camping where they stop al night
 Such crews are being placed on the Williamson valley road from here tc Walnut Grove, on the road from Camp Verde to Stoneman's lake from Dewey to Camp Verde, from Prescott to Hillside, on the road tc Crown King, the road from Rumble bee to Canyon, and on that from here to Bumblebee. Roads in the Pine Flat country will be cared fol in a similar manner.
 The county roads are in better condition than they have been for 2 long time, it was stated, and there is more money in the county road fund than there has been yet. It is the intention of the board, Chairman Midgley stated, to keep both roads and fund in this condition.
 In connection with the county road work, it is stated that draining vii be cared for by the installation of 2 large number of culverts, and 1T some places, concrete dips.

Frank Stephens dad, 60-year-old enthusiast of Mohave county, IS the owner of the Frontier associations prize saddle, following a deal be- tween his son and Van Dickson, the winner. Stephens own saddle was burned up in the Oatman fire, and when he heard of the prize horse trappings, he yearned for 'em.
 Dickson gave him the saddle. Stephens then presented Van with a horse. Both are satisfied, and Grace Sparkes, who contemplates all phases of life with her eye attuned to the possible publicity effects, is consoled by the conviction that the elder Stephens will be so proud of the saddle that he will talk abot it up and down the wilds of Mohave, until the Frontier days will obtain endless and priceless advertising.
