To SHOW ADVANTAGE
Of THE FULL USE OF
ARIZONA PRODUCTS

The advantage of using Arizona
products will be one of the two major
points which will be emphasized DUR
ing Trade at Home-Buy Arizona
Products Week. to be observed here
May % to %. The local campaign
conducted by the chamber of COM
cree will be in line with the move
ment started last January by the
Arizona Industrial congress.
The term Arizona products includes
both farm and manufactured prod
uts. 1t includes garden truck for the
table. all varieties or dairy and meat
products, building materials of all
kinds. copper utensils and materials
flour. canned goods, lumber-in fact
almost everything one uses in every
day life even down to brooms and
sweeping compounds. And they all
can be obtained right here at home
in Arizona.

paign of the congress, by increasing
the consumption and hence the pro-
duction of farm and factory goods
produced in the state. proved such a
success that it is being continued,
with the added movement now of
Trade at Home home in this case
meaning ones home town.
The reasons for using Arizona
products are the same as those for
trading at home. 1t is a question of
keeping home money at home, where
it will remain and help the develop
ment of the state or sending it away
from home and hindering home prog

dition to a small force left to close up
the buildings and dispose of the
property. The disposition to be made
of the property is unknown. Mr.
Davis SAID. The troops, he said,
marched out of the fort on May 8.
The order for the abandonment of
the fort was given on February 10,
1922. by the war department, although
the move has been contemplated for
several years. Following the order
the Arizona legislature in the special
session held recently, passed a con-
current resolution on March 2, adj
dressed to President Harding as chief
executive of the army. asking that the
abandonment order be revoked and
the post retained
TT is deemed best the resolution
stated, 'by the inhabitants of Ari-
zona that the post should be retained
for the moral effect upon the large
number of Indians in the state as
we'll as for the protection of the live
stock industry"
Fort Apache was located in 1869
by Major John Green of the First
Cavalry. on the White river. near
what is now the boundary line be-
tween Navajo and Apache counties.
Because of it's strategic position be-
tween the Navajo and Apache Indian
lands in the early days. the fort soon
became one of the strongest factors
in subduing the Indians. The post
was first called Camp Ord. then was
later renamed Fort Mogollon, then
Fort Thomas, and was finally named
Fort Apache.
Coincident with the closing OF the
post and also OF interest, comes the
announcement from Mr.. Davis that
on Sunday April 80. more than 100
Apache Indians, remembered by the
pioneers as the fierce, heartless saw
age Of the desert. were baptized and
have accepted the Christian faith.
They have laid away the TOM tom and
the war hatchet, and with a little
assistance by the white people and
also patient the entire tribe may be
brought to accept the Christian form
of worship.
Mr.. Davis letter to the governor is
as follows:

Whiteriver, Arizona.
May 3. 1922.
Honorable Thomas E. Campbell.
State House.
Phoenix. Arizona.
My Dear Governor:
1T may be of interest to you to
know that the troops marched out of
Fort Apache this morning. A small
guard detachment is left. and a force
to close up the buildings. care for
the public property. etc. What dis
position the war department will fin
ally make of the plant We do not
know.
THE Apache Indians and myself
each took note of the action of the
state legislature regarding the with
drawal of troops from the old post.
The thing that has concerned the
Indians most is the attitude in which
they have been placed before the
public in connection with the aban-
donment of the post. However, they
have thought best to ignore the mat
ter, though at one time they consid-
ered sending protest to Washington

Wilson districts on Wednesday night
every hay grower IN those districts
was present. and all signed the con-
tracts. Some of them asked for
blanks to take to their neighbors.
It is encouraging to the hay COM

of the different organizations now
forming. They ask when the dairy
and grain contracts will be ready.
One of the principal speakers at
the Laveen meeting was o. d. Flake
who at present is travelling over the
state for the Industrial congress on a

a farmer and speaks with knowl
edge that IS convincing. Henry Scott.

by Governor Thomas E. Campbell in

to place themselves in better light
before the government.
1T may be of interest to you to
know that last Sunday the new
mission church (Lutheran), the first
to be erected at this place, was dedi-
Gated. About 100 Indians were bap-
tized. Among this number was Al
chesay, the old chief of the Abaches.
II will be hard for the public to vis-
ualize the Apaches as christian wor-
shippers, but little patience win
doubtless bring assurance that the
recent fears on the part of the white
people has been largely their own
doings. What the Apaches are most
anxious about now as a labor market
that will give them opportunity to
earn support for themselves and fam
lilies. The abandonment of Fort
Apache falls harder on them than any
one else.
Very truly yours.

Mr.. linn On The Farmers Losses.

W. D. linn, OF Phiiippi, Barbour
county, West Virginia, IS one of the
editors OF the National Stockman and
Farmer, which is the most popular OF
the farm journals which comes to this
county. In the issue OF November
2sth, he gives some figures as to how
his farm business Jared from the lst
day OF November 1920, until the ist
day OF November 1921. In spite Of the
fact that the farm produced more than
il ever did in one year before. the in
ventory showed many hundred dollars
loss The depreciation vas more than
two thousand dollars. The high cost
Of labor had a good deal 10 do with
the loss He saws that the farm hands
were the only ones who made any
money on his farm the past year.
He had eny two hundred tons OF
ensilaee. which was something over
half OF the corn crop. One hundred
and twenty-four tons Of hay were har-
vested. Four hundred and seventy six
bushels Of wheat. Sixty calves were
produced on the farm. Clover sown
in the wheat last spring produced a
big crop Of hay after the wheat was
harvested
He had been using a carload OF
lime a year but last season this was
omitted on account OF the excessive
freight rates For the first time in
three years, the briars and brush were
cut on the sod land
He says that the main trouble was
the price Of labor and that will be re-
duced another year. This must be
cheerful news to the 'aborer, but II is
probably true

ner'en"e is that NJ the average farmer

Remarkable Teeth.

John Calhoun, m old man Of the
Bixler's Ferry neighborhood OF Page
county, Is Q remarkable man in many
ways. His theme has always been
hard work. He delights in compan-
bnship with the pick, shovel and axe.
Bending over these brings Joy to the
old man. He is now something like 80
years old. According TO our informant
there Is something more remarkable
about the Old man than his ability to
cope with and have pleasure in dis
posing OF hard work. He is the own
er of the most remarkable set OF teeth
OF any man living in Page county.
There is not a single tooth in his head,
there being a solid mass OF bone start
ing in the back space where the jaw
teeth begin in ordinary people, the
solid mass OF bone going all the way
around the gums. There is not an
opening in the bony mass to show that
there was ever a single tooth in the
old mans head. BY means OF this
solid, compact mass OF bone Mr.. CAL
houn is able to bead an ordinary nail
into any shape he wants il, holding the
nail In his hand and clamping down
On il with the upper and lower solid
pieces OF bones.-Luray Courier.

thing they had on earth. II is also GER
tain that these hundreds OF thousands
will be dependent on famine relief
during the winter, and as shelter and
clothing will have to be provided on an
extensive scale. the need can only be
met by a very generous response to
the appeal for funds both in Chan and
America.
China herself was never in a worse
condition financially, and while she is
organizing to relieve the distress, abil-
ity is limited, and only aid from the
West can prevent the appalling suf-
fering and fearful loss OF life during
the months that are to come.
A Famine Relief Society has been or
gained under the presidency Of the
Governor, the Military Governor and
Bishop Huntington OF our Diocese.
An energetic canvass for funds is
Just beginning. The Governor is
backing the enterprise with a zeal and
earnestness that is an inspiration TO
all. The oreign members OF the CON-
mittee have promised to get the ap-
peal for funds before the American
public as speedily as possible. A gen.
erous response will not only save many
ives and relieve awful suffering, but
increase the gratitude and good feel
ing Of China toward America. Let me
close this appeal b. a sentence from
the recent proclamation OF the Gov
ernor: zone dollar will save one life"
