STATE FORCED
 ID FREE HALL
Prosecution of Alleged Violation of Liquor Law Halted After Jury Is Seated to Try Case; {; Calendar Is All Disarranged
Ernm Mcdnesdny,s Dailnl


 An eleventh hour discovery that evidence upon which the state had hoped to prosecute Lon Hall for al- legged bootegging, was not going to be available, disrupted Halls trial ill the superior court yesterday morn ing. Followed a motion by the county attorney to dismiss the Hall case-which was done.
 Hall was charged with having sold illicitly certain quantity of white mule. He was taken into custody at his lodgings in the old Wright house, now being dismantled. Wit nesses the state had held to present its case were said by the county at torney to have declined at the last moment to testify. A jury had been picked and the case was ready to proceed.
 One result of the sudden termina- ton of the Hall case was the break ing up of the criminal docket and the release in idleness for the day of the entire panel of jurymen. County Attorney John L. Sullivan and his deputy, R. B. Westervelt, spent yesterday afternoon going over the remaining numbers on the docket and rearranging them.

OVER THOUSAND
 TREES ORDERED
(From Thursdays Daily)

Orders for more than eleven hun dred Douglas fir and Engleman spruce trees have been placed with the chamber of commerce office These trees are to be given free to those who are willing to plant the same. The offer which was made by Forest Supervisor Wales is meeting with approval on all sides. This number does not include those which will be planted at Whipple Barracks.
 Two thousand trees have been ordered. Those placing their orders first will receive first attention by the special committee appointed by the chamber of commerce to look after the tree distribution. This committee is composed of John Bianconi, Arnold Cruickshank, L. L. Bates and C. H. Bishop.
 Orders for the trees should be made at the chamber of commerce office. Superintendent Cruickshank, Of the Plaza, stated yesterday that U,csc trees would make unusually beautiful decoration for planting on graves. They are distinctly orna- mental for yards and those desiring to beautify their homes would do well to plant at least one or two. The only stipulation that is made by the government is the fact that the trees must not be planted at a lower elevation than 4,000 feet.

DIVORCE COURT SNEAKS UP IN
 LI'L LIVE GOD
Three Jerome Men Sue Desert ing Wives, While Marriage Li- cense Clerk Issues Only One Summons to Married Life
(hrrd s.AppseupeM moLdl

While Cupid was scoring one di- rect hit, the divorce court yesterday played a threc-to-one shot, trio of divorce complaints being handed in by Attorney Roger O'Malley of Jerome. All are based on the al legged desertion of the wives of the plaintiffs.
 Charles seeks a divorce from Ygnacia Diaz because the lady left him on June ?, 1919, and has per sisted in her deserted state. This couple married at Tucson in August, 1918, and have no children.
 Fred C. wants a divorce from Rose H. Chavez for the same reason only Rose departed this nuptial life in July, 1919, and the family has one child, Orlando, aged three, whom the complaint does not refer to except to state that he exists. The Chavezes were married at AlbuQuer- que, N. M, in April, 1915.
 Fred wants a divorce from Jua- nita Thompson. They were mar ried at Los Angeles in August, 1912. They are the veterans. But there are no children. In this case the complaint states that the desertion took place more than a year last past, but fixes the date at October 10, 1920-an obvious error.

CRIMINAL COURT RUNS OUT CREST; WORKERS LAY UT
(From Thursdays Daily)

The crlmlnal court session, the most notable event of which was the conviction of John Lohlein of second degree murder, came to a close here yesterday when the coun- ty attorneys office dismissed three informations charging violation of the prohibition act and continued q number of cases of alleged gambling until the next term.
 The court excused all jurors ill attendance.
 Trial of cases against alleged liquor law violators was not en- couraged by the fate of earlier cases and lack of evidence of the sort re- quired at this time to convict this class of offenders was a factor ill shaping the course of the prosecu- tor, it was said
 Those whose cases were dismissed yesterday included J. A. Mcdonald, Peter Maroon and Mrs. Theodore de Morambert. Maroon was accused of having shipped in couple of trunks containing keg goods and Mrs. de Morambert, proprietress of the Gold en Eagle hotel, was accused of hay ing conducted a hard drink em- 'porium. As result of representa- tions of her attorneys, the county returned a revolver confiscated by officers during raids on the hotel, but 1t was said that 24 pints of liquor, also seized on those occas- ions, was not returned. A fight has been made recently by counsel for the return of all alleged evidence seized by sheriff's deputies i'll raids where no warrant was sworn out prior to the entry of the officers.
 Gambling charges against Ben Fernandez, Jacinto Sotello and B. O. Sanchez, all of Jerome, were not dismissed, but these cases were passed on the calendar until a sub sequent term of court.

C|TY MAP FIRST
 OFFICIAL PLAT
Large Copy Shows All New Ad- ditions to Prescott; Work Done by City Engineer and Girl Map-Maker
CFrom Thursdays DaiIy)

For the first time in its history, Prescott has an official map of the city, all decorated with the names of the mayor and councilmen and city clerk and everything.
 The map, survey for which was made by City Engineer Art Kline, was drawn by Miss Goddard, an expert with the draughtsman's pen, and Autographed copies have been made in California. One of the prints has been framed and hung in the city managers office, where all wisdom concerning the subject of boundary lines will henceforth find its official origin.
 The new map covers not only the city proper as defined in the last map-a smaller and unofficial one but shows likewise the environs, in cluding Pine Crest, Buena Vista, Home Acre tract, Whipple Heights and even the old Brewery addition north of the railroad tracks.
 Smaller copies of the map are to be reproduced in quantities as de- manded and will probably be sold by the city to individuals needing them.

TAXI TURNS UP
 BRUISES DRIVER
(From Tuesdays Daily)


 Though he and his single passen- ger, resident of Whipple Barracks, escaped uninjured from his taxicab when it ran off the grade in the bar racks grounds at about 2 o'clock last night, George Ross, local taxi driver, is lodged ill the county jail under $1O0 bail on a charge of be- ing under the influence of liquor. The machine, which Ross is alleged to have driven while intoxicated, is still where 1t was left at the bar racks, after it had been righted from the reversed position ill which it landed, when it ran off the uphill grade, turned over and suffered a completely smashed top and wind shield, broken steering wheel and broken axle. Ross was beneath the car.
 The accident occurred as Ross was driving up the curve from the headquarters building toward the of ficers' quarters. He was said not to have been driving at an unusual rate of speed. Passing out of the drivers control, the machine left the road. crashing down the slop- ing hillside and landing upside down, with its lights still burning, the horn blowing without a stop, and three of the wheels spinning around The left front wheel was partly smashed.
 Ross passenger escaped serious injury. Ross, buried under the wrecked top, was found by those who rushed to the scene, and was dragged from beneath the machine with no injury save slightly bruis- cd shoulder With the help of the crowd which had gathered, com posed of patients and post residents, the car was soon righted but was left where it stood. It is estimated that damages in the neighborhood of $500 were sustained by the ma chine.
 The driver was taken into custody by city policemen later.
 Passenger is Bruised
 Later information last night re- vealed that the passenger travelling with Ross at the time of the acci- dent, Hammond c. Barr. an en- Dloye of the x-ray department at the post hospital, and resides at quarters 13, failed to leap clear of the car, and was buried underneath the machine when 1t turned over. He crawled from under the car with only a few slight bruises, and helped Inc others who had come to the iccne to get Ross out.
 A curious phase of the accident vas revealed last night by Barr. Coming into Prescott afterwards, he discovered in his coat pocket a spark Jug which had evidently been lying pose ill the car, and which as the machine turned over, was thrown in- 0 his pocket.

INCOME RULING FAVORABLE F9A
 ARIZONA. 5AIL)
From Wednesdays Daily)

PHOENIX, March 1. - A new ruling of the treasury department which will save Arizonans $1OO,OOO on their income taxes, it is esti- mated, is forecast in telegram re- ceivcd by local attorney here to- day from Senator Ashurst. The wire reads as follows:
 Ashursfs Telegram
 Department of justice has advised treasury department that in Arizona the husband and wife domicilcd therein in rendering separate income tax returns may each report on half of the income, which under the law of the state becomes community property, simultaneously with its re- ceipt. Copies of this opinion are not available now but the same will be promulgated as a treasury decis- ion within few days and I am reasonably certain that our citizens may rely upon it. It has been q pleasure for me to secure fair treat ment for Arizona citizens respecting this subject"
 This decision IS in line with one affecting husbands and wives i'll Texas, which ruling was made by the department about two years ago. The Arizona law respecting com munity property is similar to that of Texas, and for this reason efforts have been made, for the last two years to secure a similar decision for the residents of this state.
 Imaginary Case
 The effect of the new ruling is seen i'll an imaginary case. John Jones has an income of $1O,OOO. Under the present system of tax alton he is exempt $2,00O for his wife, and for the remaining $8,0OO pays four per cent tax for the first $4G00 and 8 per cent for the sec ond $4000 In addition to this he is required to pay surtax of $19O Under the new ruling the $10,OO0 is community property and hence husband and wife each file a return for S5,00O each. Each is entitled to exemption of $l,000, leaving
  $400O on which they each pay four per cent, thereby materially dccrcas- ing the amount of taxes which must be paid on the total $1O,0O0 income.

Cooperation For Selling--An Outline

| row through the War Finance Corpo-
| ration s5,0O0,o0O to finance their crop
| for orderly marketing.
There is now pending in Congress a
bill providing that the Government
shall lend funds through farmers or
ganizations. The advantages Of such
q law, if passed, can come only
through organizations Of farmers.
3. AS individual sellers, growers
compete with one another.
4. There are always some who
need to sell or otherwise get relief.
Without organization, this distress
selling hurts the market and the in
dividual. Cooperation take care OF
this.
The real question then is, Can far
mers get better service from middle
men serving their own selfish inter-
ests or from farmers organizations
serving the interests of the farmer
members.
General Principles.
There are three kinds Of organiza-
tions: (a) stock corporations, CD
combination stock and patronage
companies, (c) non-stock cooperative
associations. Stock corporations are
organized to draw dividends on money
invested. Stock and patronage COM
panies provide limited dividends on
money invested and sharing Of addi-'
tional profits with patrons. The non
stock cooperative association has no
money invested upon which to pay
dividends and provides equal risks
and equal benefits for members.
The six main principles Of the CO.
operative associations are:
l. Organization on the basis OF
the crop and product to be handled.
2. Membership limited to grow
ers and landlords receiving the prod
uct as rent.
3. A .jbinding contract to sell
through the association all of the

bales, and North Carolina, Georgia
and other states are now organizing.
5, Right here in South Carolina
the South Carolina Sweet Potato Asso-
citation is succeeding on cooperative
basis. This association has recently
secured reduction Of freight rates for
the future, and the ruling is retroac-
tive, so that some $4,000 will be re-
turned to the shippers from freight
paid on the last crop.
Summary.
l. The farmer needs and is en-
titled to a larger share of the consum-
er's dollar.
2. Cooperative marketing is u
business organization of farmers, by
farmers, for FARMERS.
3. The purpose of cooperative
marketing is to substitute the mer-
chandizing Of products for the dump
ing Of products by (a) stabilizing the
market (b) lowering the cost Of
handling and distribution, (c) selling
skillfully to best advantage.
i. 1t is non-stock, non-profit or
ganization. based on commodity, is,
legal and permanent.
5. The coptract is a binding, NUT
tual agreement to sell through the
associations expert selling force.
6. Pooling the product results in
better grading, better financing, less
competition, and therefore better
prices.
Z. It can be done in South Caro-
lima, for it is being done successfully
elsewhere.
s. Somebody else can't do it for
you. If you are interested in your
own business salvation you want CO.
operative marketing, athe only way is
to so out and get what you want.

period of time, and legal punishment
for breaking contract.
Pooling-How Done and Why
l. The product Of each member
assembled and graded, grades sepa-
rated from each other, and offered for
sale in large quantities or pools" of
a given grade.
9. Advantages Of pooling:
(a) Accurate grading.
CD Selling in large lots.
Co Average price secured by skilled
sellers.
(d) Orderly marketing rather
than hurried dumping.
(e) No competition from fellow
members.
Can 1t Be Done?
/. Denmark, England, and other
European countries have done it.
2. California farmers are prosper
ing under cooperative marketing as
never before.
8. The grain growers Of the West
are doing 4 s1OO,OOO,0OO cooperative
