Shady Lawn Dairy Farm Has Six
Acres That Go Over Fifteen

SILAGE GOES
% TONS TO ACRE
Corn Binder Was Up Against a Stiff
Proposition in Cutting the
- ~ Field.

Ed Uhlen, proprietor of the Shady
Lawn Dairy Farm on the Burr
Oak road, two miles north of DEBORAH
is another farmer who boasts OF
Jumbo corn this fall. Several talks
from his field of six acres were
brought to this office Friday and
placed on exhibition. They measur-
ed more than fifteen feet and were
picked at random in the field.
The corn is from Southern seed,
and was planted around May H..
While the stalks are extra large, and
will make great saage, the ears
never harden, as the season for this
particular kind of corn is not late
enough here.
Mr.. Uhlen cut five acres of the
corn and filled two silos, and it is
estimated it went easily 25 tons to
the acre. One silo 10X32 and an
other 14x26 were filled.
The corn binder went up against a
hard proposition in cutting this field
and it took twice as long as cutting
ordinary corn.
This silage will furnish tremend-
Gus amount of feed, for, Mr.. Ulen's
stock. Members ofta husking bee
would have ssofne aaeeal fun in at
tempting to husk field of this ma
gintude, andsysh though standing in
a wagon box the average man would
be unable to reach the ears.

S1,5OO,0OO TOTAL
FEDERAL AID FOR
ARIZONA IN YEAR

Nearly $1,5O0,00O OF federal aid
funds have been received by Ray
mond Earhart, state treasurer, since
the adjournment of the last legisla-
ture. This brings the total of fed
eral aid received by the state of Ari-
zona up to approximately $2,S00,OO0
which means that two-thirds of the
federal aid due the state prior TO
the passage of q new appropriation
by congress has been received, the
amount Of work representing this
sum Of money having been completed
for some time.
The securing Of the $1,50o,o0 has
greatly benefited the finances OF the
state. The 100000 which the legis-
lature allowed the state highway de-
partment to be advanced from the
appropriations in the Omnibus bill
was repaid TO, the Omnibus bill last
year. The highway department is
now transferring to the state treas
urer over 100000 from federal aid
received to repay to the Omnibus bill,
which means the general fund Of the
state, the funds temporarily advanced
for the construction of federal aid
highways where the state was forced
to provide for both it's own funds
and also the federal aid money. In
addition the state is beginning 10 re-
ceive a portion Of the $250,000 which
> is to be used to match the $4,000 Of
state appropriations to provide for the
$325,000 necessary to repair the
Apache Trail The department ex-
poets to start this construction in
April. One of the camps now work
ing on the Superior Miami highway
will shortly be moved to the Apache
Trail as funds are being secured.
While there will not be sufficient
funds available at this time to meet
the $4,000 in the Omnibus bill ap-
preparation for the Apache Trail and
in this way release this for use by
the highway department, there
should be sufficient funds with which
to start construction so that funds
received from the continuation of
the Maricopa county highway pro-
gram will provide the total amount
necessary.
These latter funds should be Sc
cured in time so that when the worA
on the trail is once started it should
not be necessary to close il down for
lack of funds. An additional source
OF funds for the trail may come from
the forestry bureau Of the depart
meat of agriculture, which has about !
$500, 600 for road construction in Ari- /
zona as nearly all the road from the |

SALT RIVER VALLEY
BEST PLACE OF ALL
SAYSD. A. DONOFR|O

There's no place like home, de-
Clares DominiclS Donofrio, after a
trip in which he visited many of the
countries Of Europe, a trip that last
ed several months, and there's no
land to equal the Salt River valley,
he insisted to the members of the
Rotary club yesterday.
1T was Dominick's first attendance
at a Rotary meeting here since his
return to the United States and they
gave him a fine reception yesterday
Mt the Hotel Adams luncheon, assur-
ing him in many ways that they were
glad he is back and that they were
proud OF the way he represented the
Phoenix Rotary club at the Edin-
burgh, Scotland, meeting and at all
the other big Rotary gatherings.
He may have been In famous old
cities and he may have seen some
interesting sights. Dominick said, but
he assured them that the sight of old
friends was best and the coming back
to Phoenix and the Salt River valley
the most delightful OF all.
1t was q very interesting talk,
filled with personal touches that
made it more enjoyable. 1t would
have been impossible for the speaker
to have told all about his long trip

noon, but he started from the time the
New York city Rotary club gave the
big delegation of Rotarians fine re-
ception at the Waldorf Astoria until
he returned to the United States, re-
lating something Of each country vis-
tied.
On the big vessel on the way over
there We're Rotary meetings morning
and afternoon, he said. A reception
committee from Glasgow met them
with gifts for all the ladies and SOU
venirs for the men. The trains were
all decorated, there being a large Ro-
tary wheel on the locomotive. AT
Edinburgh, where the great conven-
tion was held, the streets and build
ings were decorated.
DomiIdck told Of how he and
Dwight b. Heard, the other Phoenix
representative at the Edinburgh con-
vention, took part in the great par
ade and the manner in which they put
Phoenix and Arizona on the map.
London, Paris, Belgium, Holland,
the battlefields, all were visited by
Dominick, who told interesting things
Of each. Switzerland, although a
wonderful little country, said the
speaker, had its counterpart in great
mountain scenery in Arizona and
western Canada. He described visits
in Venice, Florence, Rome, Naples,
Pompeii, Pisa, with short accounts
of each place. His story Of being

GOOD HOUSEKEEPER

The state OF Arizona Is a good
housekeeper
That will be the opinion OF every
woman in Phoenix this morning when
she learns that the state Is paying
~ cents a pound for beef. Further
more the state is buying liver for s
cents, bacon for Fl cents and ham for
231h cents.
These are the prices that have
been accepted by the Arizona Pack
ing company from the state for meat

for the insane. William J. Dono-
hue, purchasing agent of the board Of
directors OF state institutions, made
the contract for the beef which has
dropped in price since october, when
it was 91k cents a pound.
Mr.. Donohue also purchased hard
wheat flour at a reduction of so cents

is now paying $3.70 for 9S pounds.

the three weeks it required to secure
other passports was very interesting.
Monte Carlo, the world famous
gambling resort, was visited, as was
Nice, and then Dominick journeyed
on to Spain, then to Bordeaux and to
Berlin. There he found the American
dollar to be the most valuable thing
in the world. The speaker described
many conditions in Germany caused
by the depreciation Of the nterk.
But finally ne got back once more
to America and enjoyed riding once
more on an American train. He ex-
pressed his appreciation OF the cable
gram sent him by the Phoenix Ro-
tary club.
President Boynton announced that
at the next meeting of the Rotary
club the district governor would be
