not Influenced during this time by any
cooperative organization On the first
of October the Waterford Farmers Fx- /
change was organized and starting I'M
loading cars at New London Waterford
farmers living any way from two to five
miles out Of New London. In. October,
November and December NV London
prices averaged S2.70 per ton under the
Norwich prices Norwich not being in
fluenced during these six months by any
farmers cooperative exchanges This
meant that the price of feed per ton av-
eraged, rs far as these figures would
show. S4.24 per ton lower after the Wa
terford Cooperative Exchange was or
ganized than before and this saving was
naturally passed on to all farmers who
bought feed in the New London market.
After the. first of January the Norwich.
| Lebanon and Yantic co-oper1.ive ex-
changes were organized all of them in
ffuencfng more or less the Norwich mar
1et and It was surprising to note the re-
auctions in feed prices following the or
ganzation of these exchanges. From
careful inquiry made It is safe to say
| that Norwich and New London prices
are running fairly close at the present
time so that an estimate on the fig
ures which were kent for the last six
months of last year Would show that feed
prices in Norwich and New London and
in fact in all places influenced by the
| cooperative exchanges which were or
| gained, are approximately 81 per ton
less than they otherwise would have
been.
Our last census showed that the feed
| bill for New London county in 1920 was
about $3.50 900. Estimating an aver
age price per ton on grain at that time
of $65 per ton, this would give us q 200
. tons Of Grain This +y-
Twelve and one-ha1f tons are practically
inguenced by cooperative exchanges and
approximately three fourths of the feed
sold in New London county is sold in
these towns. At 1925 per ton for three
quarters of this amount of grain it is
safe to estimate that the organization
Of these cooperative exchanges has
meant a big saving to farmers in this To-
cality of about S67 900 during this year

DAM SITE PRICE DROPPING

Anent the contemplated new city reservoir, it is reported that the own CTS of the Beasley-McCoy place have reduced the price they asked for their Fort Valley property, which would be flooded if the dam is built there, from S13,000 to $10,000. There are several other homesteads to be taken into con- sideration in connection with this project, including the Fred Russell, A. G. Bader and two or three other ranches, all or part of which would be flooded.
 It may be some time before the en- gineers get together on report as to the comparative values of the Fort Valley and Switzer Canyon dam sites. It is reported that Mir. Davenport, act ing chief engineer of/the Santa Fe, is opposed to the Switzer Canyon site, though he has not qualified to give ex- pert testimony as yet beyond casually looking over the two sites few days ago.

SUPERIOR COURT IS
 POSTPONED ONE WEEK

Superior court will not begin the summer term next Monday, as plan ned, but has been postponed until Monday, August l. The reason for the change is that many of the civil cases which were expected to be ready for trial this term will not be. The few minor criminal cases and such civil cases as are ready can be taken care of in the one week.
 Therefore, those who have been summoned to appear for jury duty next Monday are, at the request of the sheriff's office, hereby notified of the change in date and. requested to be at the courthouse in Flagstaff, promptly at 9:30 a. m., August 1.
 The smaller cases disposed of dur ing the first week of the term, the one interesting case-perhaps the most in teresting tried here in years will begin the second Monday in the month. This is the trial of Harry H. Nash for the murder of Martin Schwab

MRS. S. H. BEECHER
 CALLED BY DEATH

The host of friends in Kingman of Mrs. Sumner Beecher were shocked Wednesday morning to learn that she had passed away the night before at St. Vincent's hospital in Los Angeles. Mrs. Beecher had been ailing some time and was taken to the Los Ang- eles hospital in the hope that her life might be saved, but she gradually became weaker until the end came.
 Mrs. Beecher was one of the ideal women of Kingman, everyone who knew her being a fast friend and low ing her for her many womanly accom- plishments. She was devoted mother to her four children and these lit- tie ones will miss her tender ministra- tions sadly. There is sorrow in King man homes because of the untimely death of this good woman. The fu- neral will take place from St. Vim cents Catholic church in Los Angeles this morning. Many Kingman people now in Los Angeles will attend the funeral.
 When the end came, the parents and husband were at the bedside. To them the deep sympathy of the people of the town and county is extended in their time of sorrow.-Kingman Mi ner, July 8.
 Mrs. Beecher was the daughter of MT. and Mrs. Thomas Devine and a native daughter of Flagstaff, where she lived during childhood. The many friends of the Devines here ex- tend their sympathy to the bereaved parents and husband.
