Ellsworth American., 1922-12-27

The American last week sent to
many business and professional men
of Ellsworth a request for brief eX-
preston of their best wish for ELS
worth in 1928 The replies received
are printed elsewhere in this issue,
and furnish interesting reading. All
are alike in that they show a lively
interest in the welfare of Ellsworth,
yet no two are alike in manner OF eX-
pressing it.
The strongest note sounded is the
wish for better community spirit.
The fact that this wish is expressed
by so many, in one way or another,
is in itself evidence to us that the
community spirit, so sadly lacking in
Ellsworth in past years, is already
budding.
Our own best wish for Ellsworth
is that these buds may burst to full
flower in 1928, giving assurance of
generous fruitage for many years to
come.

While the widespread snow fall of Saturday night was tenn porarily discomforting to stock it was in general of marked benefit to the ranges. Precipl- tation covered all portions of the district snow extending be- yond the southern border. At Douglas two inches fell on Sunday but as the temperature was not unusually low stock stood the storm well. NogaleS reported a fall of six inches snow which on Monday morn ing under the influence of a clear sky was disappearing rapidly. The heaviest fall oc- cured in the vicinity of Will Hams where 16 inches were re- ported the storm continued for 24 hours. Three inches fell at Fort Apache Sunday but had disappeared at low levels Mon day morning; stock, range and water situation were all report ed good in that section. The snowfall at Prescott was 14 in- ches, at Pinedale 12 inches.
 Low temperatures, both day and night, have made the soil too cold for successful gernni- nation of seed and little else ! than preparation of the seed ]! bed has been accomplished during the week. A number of farmers anticipating a change to the warmer have planted cotton but thus far their hopes have not been real ized. In the Yuma section grape vines are beginning to leaf and some alfalfa has been cut but the crop is short. A large number of grape vines designed for the Yuma and Wellton sections has been re- ceived from Fresno, Cal, and will be planted and placed in nurseries at the places named. Some early potatoes in the Salt River Valley were nipped by frost Monday morning. The widespread rain and snow of Saturday night and Sunday were beneficial to the soil in all sections

Some of the congressman and senators profess to be horrified at the thought of spending five billions of dollars to reimburse American soldiers. The fact that America threw away two to three times that amount in unemployed labor seems not to worry such congressman in the least. If five billion were paid to the ex-service men, it would flow quickly into circu- lation and help revive business. The fifteen billion of unpro- duced wealth will never go into circulation.
 Perhaps some will doubt the estimate of fifteen billions as the product of the unemployed. This is reached by taking the census estimate of ten dollars per day as the average product of all workmen engaged in the industries of the nation. If
