RARE LAW BOOK
 N0N IN COUNTY SUPERIOR COURT.

The first law book published in the United States, which i'll 1788 was the property of Samuel w. Dana, Esq, attorney-at-law of Middletown, Conn.,, today is the prized possession Iof the law library of the Yavapai county superior court. One of the original and only 800 copies of this book printed for 300 subscribers in Connecticut l34 years ago, the book was secured for the superior court library by Judge John J. Sweeney, who during his tenure of office has brought that library to the position of the third best.in the state of Ari- zona. The book is entitled:
 Reports of Cases Adjudged in the Superior Court of the State Of Con nectitut from the Year 1785 to May, l7S8, With Some Determinations in the Supreme Court of Error; by Ephriam Kirby, Esq. Litchfield: Printed by Collins x Adams It is more familiarly known as "Kirby's Reports"
 That this is one of the original 300 copies of the first edition of law book in this country, is borne out by practically contemporary evidence Among the volumes of the superior court library are the files of the re- ports of the state of Pennsylvania, in which 1t is stated that Pennsylvania was the first state to start publica- ton of its law reports, with the ex- ception of one small volume by
 Kirby.
 It was suggested yesterday that Kirby's volume be placed in glass case, thus achieving the honorif;c status of regular first and rare edi- ton. The book has all of the re-
 quired antique appearance. It is print ed on handmade paper of a pulpy texture, in the characteristic type-face of the period, m which the lower case "s' is scarcely distinguishable from the lower-case "f." On the slightly yellowed flyleaf is written in neat script in faded ink, Samuel w. Dana," and, in the corner, the price, lSs.
 That the volume IS a genuine sub scription addition is attested by an Iappendix containing the names and places of residence of its 800 sub Iscribers. In this list appear many of the important names of the day, familiar to students of the beginnings Iof American history in the colonies
 Before long, all American law will be contained on the shelves of the library. Recently the reports of Kentucky, Connecticut and AIissis- sippi were received, making an addi- ton of about 225 volumes.

Ii they pass certain rigorous tests applied at the cattle markets and slaughtering houses, and only their milk is found to be tuber- culin infected, they are slaughtered for beef. Otherwise they are used for by-products, such as hides, tallow, and gelatinous products.

BOARD TO RELIEVE CROWDING
 AT MAYER SCHOOL

Steps to relieve congestion of the Mayer school house, due to& rapid in- crease in the school population, are being taken by the board of school trustees, with whom the county school superintendent is cooperating. The same marked growth in school attendance noted in Prescott, Jerome, Clarkdale and the Verde valley towns has so crowded the four-room school house at Mayer that additional room and another teacher will be necessary to handle the situation.
 The board of trustees has leased concrete building formerly used as a restaurant and are rapidly having the structure converted into a school room. Meanwhile the county super is locating a teacher for this new room.
 While at the beginning of school in 1921 there were but 83 pupils in the Mayer school, which includes ninth and tenth grade classes in ad- iition to the regular eight grammar grades, 107 pupils enrolled at the opening of school this year.
 It is understood that the new room 1t Mayer will be ready for occu- oancy about a week from Monday.

LOOKS SURE
 FUR HICHNAY
 TO COCON|NO

That the new road Up Oak creek will be built within the next year is as nearly certainty as anything can be, says a Jerome report of the Flag staff meeting. The Coconino board Of supervisors has authorized the ex- penditure of the funds for a final sur vey to be made by the federal bureau of public roads and there is every assurance that construction work will begin at the earliest possible moment.
 These results followed the meeting Of Wednesday at Flagstaff at which representative from Yavapai county met a delegation from Coconino at the Observatory city.
 Plan Favored
 The meeting was marked by the greatest enthusiasm and letters were read from Governor Tom Campbell, State Engineer Tom Maddock and former Governor George W. ?. Hunt endorsing the idea cf building the road immediately.
 The Coconlno supervisors were 2 unit in favoring the immediate COIL struction of the road and many short addresses were made as to the mu- tual benefits that must flow from its completion. The first tangible step was the promise O. the supervisors to begin work on the survey at an carly date The federal bureau can not act until such q survey is available and it was said that the cost of the road will be much less than is generally sup posed.
 Well Entertained
 The visitors were taken for a drive toward the summit of the San Fran cisco peaks over the new Weatherford road and were also given the privilege of examining the equipment of the Lowell observatory and viewing the moon and Mars through the great telescope.
 Executive Committee
 Robert Wingfield of Camp Verde, w. F. Woodruff of Cottonwood, F. K. Ausfahl of Clarkdale, Dewitt Smith and Joe Mccarthy of Jerome, Harry Heap and w. w. Midgley of Prescott, and J. NJ. Foster, IT,, of Clemenceau were appointed an ex- ecutive committee to further the pro- ject in every possible way.

GIVES AMERICA
WEAKER FORCE
THAN JAPANESE
Assistant Secretary Tells Why Bill
AS Reported Isl
Bad
BY THEODORE ROOSEVELT
Assistant Secretary of Navy

WASHINGTON, April 12.-The
naval bill as reported by the house
appropriations committee cripples our
navy. 1t gives US only $1,000 men.
We believe in the limitation and
reduction of armament. We have
proved the honesty of our belief by
our accomplishments.
The naval treaty just ratified by
the senate limits and reduces our
navy and establishes a fixed basis
for all nations concerned-a ration
of 5-5-3 between Great Britain, the
United States and Japan respective
| ly.
We believe in peace.
If our belief is to be more than
idle thought, we must maintain the
navy agreed to as just and equitable
in the last conference of the ma
tions.
This year England will have 104,-
600 men in her navy. The Japanese
will have $4,000 men. Under this
bill, we will have but $1,000 men.
Ships without men amount to
nothing. If this bill is passed, there
fore, it cuts the naval ratio between
the countries to about 2-7-8 and 5
and 3 with the United States on the
small end
The United States under the
treaty, has 18 battleships that she
may retain. Under this bill she can
keep only 13 in full commission. She
has to put 5 in ordinary with only
200 men on board. A battleship with
out a crew is not battleship at all.
1t is naval relic
The battleship alone is not the
navy. With it must go the neces-
sary complement of smaller ships.
Without these smaller ships the bat
tleship is helpless. With only $4,000
men we have to lay up hundreds of
thousands of tons of our auxiliary
craft.
With but $1,000 men we can keep
but 703,952 tons of combatant ships
ready for service. England keeps
1,3O7,785 tons ready for service and
Japan 689,4 tons.
Under the treaty we are allotted
d navy equal 10 that OF Great Bril-
tain, and 20 per cent greater than
that of Japan. Should this bill be-
come a law this relationship would
be destroyed and we would be placed
in position inferior to both of them.
The department has asked for Co.,
600 men. This is the minimum num-
Der necessary at this time to man
our fleet. With only $1,000 men, the
naval ratio is broken.
We are put in position inferior
to Great Britain and Japan.
Our power of defense is crippled.
Our influence for peace and justice
is limited, and we are relegated to a
secondary position.
TQ limit the personnel of our navy
to $1,000 men would be national
calamity.

Although the exports of all meat
products in 1921 increased 5 per
cent. in pounds over those of 1920,
hog products Jared better than beef.
Cotton is about where it was at
the beginning of March. AS the
world has been living on reduced
consumption for several years, it
very much needs to use more cot
ton, and the situation is disquieting.
If the season should be bad for the
growing crop we may have very
high prices for cotton. Such an out
come is very undesirable, for it will
mean high prices to consumers
with little compensating benefit to
growers.
Prospects Encouraging
On the whole there seelns ~ be
a good basis for believing that agti-
culture in all branches will have
better market for the next crop than
for the last one. The farmers costs
are declining, and we believe that
the necessary readjustments to
bring industry into balance require
tlidl luSy oiidi IOHllIluC W uCNllUes
1t is in the interest of all business
that the farmers, the most numer-
Gus class in the country, shall have
a fair show in the field. With agri-
cultural production increasing in
Europe the farmer cannot expect
the prices of his products to go
back to the high levels due to the
war, and if he has made mistakes of
judgment by buying property at
high prices he has lots of company
among people who are not farmers,
but he has right to expect that
one way or another, his products
shall have purchasing power in re-
lation to other commodities and
services equal to that of before the
war. We do not think that much
can be done by means of legislation
to secure this to hinly but are posi-
tive in our, opinion that economic
law will bring it to him, and we
counsel all. other groups to cheer
fully accord it to him as rightfully
