& The appeal is made to help in fur thering this noble work to each of us, l but as Uncle Sam called on each of us Gu-!ng the var, SO the welfare of the children of our generation is depen- dent upon you and me-"
 | A discussion then followed on the General Federation. Mrs. Kilt desired to know where she could procure a list of the officers and directors of the Federation, to which Mrs. Guild advised that such list would be fur .nished gladly by Miss Lida Hafford, Maryland Building, Washington, D. c. Mrs. Guild also gave a very interest ing talk on the new building now in preparation in Washington, D. C., for the ever-growing Federation. She stated that in the past they have had two small club rooms in the Maryland building, but the membership which at present is 2,500,00O calls for bigger and better headquarters, and Mrs. Winter, President of the Federation, took the liberty of purchasing the home of General Miles, at a cost of 5000, subject, of course, to the ap- proval of the Board. The Board gave its consent, and the Federation is now at work in the various states to make a reality of what seemed at first a mighty big project, establish ing headquarters in Washington in a $75,O00 building. Mrs. Guernsey of Nebraska, at meeting in Chicago, when she heard of the plan, and the women's hesitancy of taking so great a responsibility upon themselves, rose in the meeting and said "Go out and get the money. Your organization is bound to be successful"-and she back ed the optimistic statement with a hundred dollar bill.
 Another question arose in the dis cussion with regard to the charge of 10 cents per capita instead of 25 cents per club as heretofore, and Mrs. Guild said this had been suggested not only to put money in the treasury but to put all the states on the same basis"
 The reports of the various Clubs were then resumed, and the first Club called upon by Mrs. Lockett, was the Tucson Women's Clubs, Mrs. Geo. Kilt, President. Mrs. Kilt gave very interesting report the substance of which is as follows:

Market Report
STATE MARKETS

SAN FRANCISCO, June l6.-Move
ment on cantalope from Imperial Val
lev is now in full swing. Cars are now
leaving the valley at the rate OF 2oo
or better each day.
Because of Shriner week in San

of ears. According to dealers, San

cars daily. The f. o.. b. price at ship

standard crates.
Supplies of cantaloupes are much
tighter today although plentiful. Very
few figs have been received OF late

By the California Cattlemen associ-
alton s weekly report the San Francis
co market seems to have pretty well
stabilized itself for 7c for steers and
51ac for cows, f. 0. b. ranch.
The Los Angeles market seems to
have become more stable, and sales are
reported at 7c for steers, f. o. h. ranch
as far north as Santa Clara county 10
Los Angeles buyers, and sales are re-
ported at TIC delivered from nearby
points, which is about equal to 7c f. O.
b. ranch.
There is still a relatively small num-
Der of actually fat cattle available for
slaughter. Sales reported here are for
fat cattle. Sales reported at lower
prices are for half fat cattle, which
must be fed 80 to 60 days before they
are in killing condition. With the
shortage of fat cattle, there is no
reason for catuemen to become "pan-
icky" or unduly anxious to sell. The
average slaughter in California pei
month is $4,000 COWS, 10000 steers, 22,-
600 calves, or a total of $4,000 herd
per month.
Prices on Arizona feeders seem to av,
,erage $2l for yearling steers, $26 fol-
two year olds, $50 for three year olds
COWS $50 to $50.

EXCITEMENT is running high in local oil
circles due to encouraging reports
from the Smitherman No. ;, being
drilled just in the edge in S. T. OF
s. f., 1875, on lands OF Mrs. S.
II. Madden.
1t was reported around town Sun
day that good showing of oil had
been found in this WE'LL and casing
would be set and a test made as soon
as possible, and local people who are
interested, more or less in the activity
in this territory state that this is Ar
cadiaS first real opportunity for a
well, and although it could be a fail
ure even now, there is enough show
ing to cause considerable more pros
pecting
For the first time in several weeks,
trading in leases and royalties has
been very active, and though unusual,
there have been many local buyers in
the market, besides those from out
of-toWn.
Although we are unable to state
when a test will be made, we are in
formed that it will be within the next
s or 10 days.
