When will the western coppe"

when business again justifies
If we sit still and suck our thumbs
1t will take business longer to re-
vive.
One way that the people can he p
in the re-opening of the copper
mines and the employment of tens
Of thousands of workmen, is by TAX
ing an interest in products manu-
factured from copper.
We live in the heart of a copper
producing country and yet we man
ufacture but minus quantity of
copper articles, while the field for
the use of copper is almost un!im-
tied
AS an illustration, what material
will make a better road sign than
sheet of copper?
IT would last forever and would
rot have to be replaced every few
years as do the present painted met
al signs. Why not use our own in

dustries instead of Waiting for Eu-
rope or some bankrupt foreign
country to come to our rescue with
orders?
The road sign is merely one of a
thousand uses that can he cited for

GOOD MONEY IN POULTRY

C. D. Bowker for number OF
years raised grain on ranch OF 100
acres near Phoenix, of which 50
aci es was leased land, according to
the Reclamation Record. The enor-
nous increase in land values in the
valley, due to the growing OF long
staple cotton, put rents too high for
grain growing. Mr.. Bowker found
himself restricted to his le-acre
ranch He began to look into other
kinds of farming. Finally he made
a venture in poultry. This was nine
years ago, and with the exception
cf the first year, from the 10 acres
his net receipts have equalled each
year those of the 100 acres of grain.
Last season his 1900 chickens re-
turned a gross revenue of $4,000
and a net profit of $4,000. This year
he is handling 5000 chickens on his
10 acres, and is confidant that his
profits will exceed those of 1880 by
100 per cent Mr.. Bowker's favorite
is the White LeghOrng

CHICKENS HOME TO ROOST

That is what is h appening in the
case Of surplus income which form
erly was invested in productive en-
terprise.
1t is now going into tax exempt
government and municipal securi-
ties, thus eliminating the supply of
new capital so much needed for all
lines Of industrial development At
the sametime the sources of taxable
income and investments are con-
stantly reduced.
Thus while tax exempt securities
make it easier to raise public mon-
les, they are rapidly leaving the
government without sources for tax
purposes and heaping a double bur-
den of taxation onto the common
citizen and operating industry
