 The oats crop is now estimated at 714,000 bushels, an increase of 84,000 bushels over last year; corn, 1,159,- 900 bushels, an increase of 144,000; barley, 960,000, an increase of 32,000.
 Latest estimates for other Arizona crops are as follows: Final estimated yields for 1921 being shown in paran- thesis: Pima cotto, 37,000 bales (35,000); short staple cotton, 22,000 bales (9000); potatoes, 599,000 bush- els (463 3,00O); alfalfa, 615,000 tons (450,000); grain sorghums, 955,000 bushels 1,200,0OO).

TENTH TNNUAL FAIR AT
 PRESCOTT OCT. 1921

Especial to The Coconino Sun)
 Copies of the prize lists and rules governing the tenth annual Northern Arizona state fair to be held at Pres colt on October 19, 20 and Fist will be mailed free upon application to the fair association. Thousands of dol lars will be awarded in cash prem iums in all departments of the fair.
 While the Northern Arizona State fair is primarily an educational insti- tuition, sufficient entertainment will be afforded fair visitors to insure a continuous round of pleasure during the three days.
 Committee chairmen, superinten- dents and managers are showing a keen interest in all departments. The Northern Arizona State fair is per haps the only institution of it's kind in the country where the work is all handled by volunteer workers, who receive no compensation whatsoever for their services. It is a splendid at- test to the citizenship of Northern Arizona that sufficient pride is shown in the upbuilding of the resources of the counties of Apache, Coconino, Mo- have and Yavapai that service through the fair is given by these in- dividuals. This applies likewise to all officials.
 The tenth annual fair will eclipse the last fair from every standpoint and all citizens of northern Arizona are urged to take a live interest in the fair.

A few of the men, there were supposed to be in the neigh borhood of six in the party, got out of the car and walked around for a short time while the rest stayed in the auto.

INDIANS ARE MARRIED BY
 THE WHITE MANS LAW"

Mating customs in vogue for count less generations among Indians on the Camp Verde reservation 50 miles east of here, are to be supplanted at once by the marital laws of the white man. Superintendent J. o. Barnd, of the reservation, was busy today issuing marriage licenses and five ceremonies were performed as the first of ser ies of weddings in wholesale lots.
 "We are attempting to make these people feel they are mating as hu- man beings and not as animals" re- marked Supt. Barnd.
 Sam Jimula and woman who has been his mate for 30 years after the custom of the Mohave Apache h. dians were the veterans of the unique group that faced local justice of the peace.

EXTENSION

Some ideal of the popularity and usefulness of the agricultural exten- sion work may be ascertained by da- ta just issued from the United States department of agriculture. It shows that 136,441 boys and girls were en- rolled in agricultural extension clubs during the last year engaged in live stock work. These boys and girls raised farm animals in the total val ue of $3,600,000. Agricultural exten- sion poultry clubs last year raised poultry in the value of s1,600,000 in addition to the number purchased for home use.

community. Every additional
year Of schooling means that
much additional asset to the in

All children are not fortunate
enough to be able to attend col

tenn does guarantee to each
child splendid foundation Of
education and the parent who
does not keep his child in school
until he finishes High School is
not giving that child every adj
vantage to which he is entitled
and the child is not availing
himself Of his full opportunities
if he gives up before he reaches
graduation from High School.
The child himself may not ap-
preciate the value of that extra
schooling at the age at which he
stops school, but in the years to
come he will blame himself and
his parents. Our school author

REPUBLICANS DOOMED

Republicans Of the old guard
are becoming more and more
worried over the turn which
politics have taken and over the
success Of the progressive wing
Of the party. The winning Of
nomination by Beveridge over
Senator New, the defeat Of the
Penrosc machine in Pennsylvania
and finally the landslide victory
Of Drookhart, progressive and
close friend Of Senator LaFol-
lette, together with the attacks
Of the Press on the administra-
ton for it's continued support OF
the Attorney General, is causing
many froWn to show upon the
brow of the administration for
ces, and a wonder on their part
what will happen to them in the
coming Fall elections. They
know that something must be
done but they know not which
way to turn. They have seer
1.-THE handwriting on the wall,
but they know not what to do tt
erase it. The party is divided
within itself and no matter VIVA
course it may take at this lat.
date it is surely doomed to de
feat in the coming congressional
and in the Presidential elections
two years hence.

WHY THE REASON?

At every succeeding common
cement it is noticeable the small
per ccntage Of boys in each grad.
uating class Of the High School.
What is the reason Of this {?
Is it that the boys cannot stick
through the fight to a certifi-
cate, or does it mean that parents
take the boys out Of school and
put them to work before \ they
have finished the course +?

STRIKE BALLOT

to resist the reduction of wages or
dered by the labor board"
President Cradle said afterwards
he expected the returns would be in
by July first, explaining in case of a
strike vote he was empowered to call
the men out he fixed July 8 as the
tentative date by which arrange
ments could be completed to put the
strike in effect.
The wage cut is effective July l
under the labor board order.
Mr.. Cradle expressed the belief that
other railroad brotherhoods also
would conducct strike referendums
within the near future and declared
if the others voted to strike the main
tenance of way men would join them,
in the event the members of his or
ganization favored such action.
The Brotherhood's financial condi-
ton is the best it has ever been and
sufficient funds are available to con-
duct a strike, the president said. He
declined to state the amount the bro
therhood has in its treasury.
A strike on the part of the brother
hood would, according to the presi-
dent affect all mechanics. maintenance
of way men, including section hands
and foremen, track men, bridge build
ers, painters, coal chute men, cinder
pit men and carpenters on all princi-
pal roads.
Mr.. Cradle said he had based his
belief that other unions might take a
strike vote on the attitude shown at
the recent meeting in Chicago of rep
resentatives of the railway depart
ment of the American Fedora tion of
Labor. at which he said sentiment
was favorable for a strike vote in the
event Of wage reductions.
Mr.. Cradle in explaining the move
of Brotherhood officials declared all
believed the wage reductions were
"unwarranted and unfair" at this
time, asserting that the labor boards
ruling would reduce wages of the
workers on an average of 1872 per
cent, while living costs the country
over. he declared had not declined
more than three per cent.
