chant of Prescott was here on

We were visited this afternoon
by H. Francis Murphy, a news
paper man and miner formerly
of Nome, Alaska, with whom
the editor was we'll acquainted
in the far North. Mr. Murphy
is going thru here enroute to
Oatman. where he has some val
liable mining property. We were
glad to renew old acquaintance
again and hope he will return.
Mr.. Murphy says that with the
return of prosperity to the min
ing industry that Wickenburg
will reap a just portion of the
business, as conditions prevail
ing here seem ready for it.

Lysle Abbott of the Journal
Miner returned to Prescott Sun
day. evening.
Friendships are very short and
uncertain in a town where sue
cess is viewed with seIfshness
and mercenary instincts by one
to another.
Mrs. Paul Macker entertained
at a luncheon on Thursday, Mar.
22nd, for her house guest Mrs.
B. Rogers of Denver, Colorado.
The guests were all from out of
town.
Garfield Gray and his mother,
Mrs. Thos. Gray. passed through
Wickenburg Wednesday enroute
to Vicksburg to look after some
mining interests in that vicinity.
It has been estimated that there
is still in the ground in the
United States enough coal to last
this country 5000 years at the
present rate of consumption.
Three and one-half trillion tons
are the figures given by the ex-
perts who know how to discover
these things.
By reason of bootleg arrests in
the past week, Wickenburg peo-
pie are able to discern how and
by whom this henious traffic has
been conducted of late.

Step on PERSONS corns and
you will hear a roar, but none
more loud than the explosion
you will hear from a few selfish

Cattlemen's Deliberations On
Matters of Mutual Interest

H.. M. Rice, Sec. of Arizona
Cattlemen's ASSN, met the Sou.
Pac. railway representative of
freight and transportation at
Phoenix last week, and a thru
train service for livestock from
Ell Paso to Los Angeles was
agreed upon, and the regular
cattle train service is to be in
augurated at once. This prom
ised service is being welcomed
by cattle growers from ella. Salt
River and Southern Arizona and
New Mexico. But what of the
stock raising areas Of central and
Western Arizona from Phoenix
to the Colorado River and inter-
mediate points, of which Wicken-
burg is an acknowledged center?
Will our stockmen take up this
matter with the Santa Fe for a
like agreement with equal ad-
vantages?
Homer Wood of Prescott. pres.
ident of the State fair commits
sion, is suggesting that Gov. Hunt
vote the state fair appropriation
of $112, 600 as it is too small for
two years, making the holding of
a good fair impossible. A hope
is expressed that Mr.. Wood will
not allow his zeal for Prescott's S
annual Northern Arizona Fair to
mitigate against the interests of
Maricopa county in this matter.
A good suggestion would be to
toss up and choose between
which one of the state fairs
should be suspended the first
year and then hold them alter
nately, so that the State would
have only the expense of one
fair a year-which ought to be a
good one.

president of the Arizona Cattle

1t is impossible here to more than
touch upon transportation in it's re-
lation to the agriculture of the state.
Adequate transportation at compar-
atively low cost is essential for an in
dustry that must send bulky products
to distant markets.
The agriculture of our state has de-
veloped largely on basis of trans
portation rates prevalent in pre-war
times. The increased rates resulting
from the war period were met in part
by increased farm prices for farm
goods during the war and immediate
~ following but in the almost per-
pendicular drop in prices for farm
products in 1920 and no appreciate
drop in transportation rates, agricul-
azure suffered an extraordinary handi-
cap. Present high rates as compared
with prices received by the farmer
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1923-12-27

for his products stand as protective
tariff for the farmers of the west
This is especially true with reference
to our fruit. While in 1913 the freight
rate, on apples from Wenatchee to
Chicago was $1.00 per 100 pounds, In
1922 it was $1.50. At the same time
the freight rate from Springfield,
Missouri to the same market and for
the same product was % cents in 1918
and Az cents in 1922 while the rate
on apples from Winchester, Virginia,
one Of the large apple producing sec
tions of the east to New York was Is
cents during the same year. Unless
lower rates are possible or higher
prices are paid for the farmers goods,
we must increasingly learn how to
ship by water and to sell on foreign
markets by bringing manufacturing
industries to the northwest and here
developing great industrial centers
that will consume the products of the
farm. That the former is possible and
feasible, believe is generally great
ed With the immense water power
resources Of this section, greater than
that of any other section of the Unit
ed States, the latter also would seem
feasible and every effort should and
must be made on the part of our state
and adjoining states to see that these
resources are developed not only for
the benefit both of agriculture and
Of other industries but for the people
whether that be done by public or by
private enterprise.

When the students went to school
last Thursday morning, they saw the
chimney decorated with a huge yell
low "a, the senior class numerals.
There were also several other '24's
scattered about the school house. That
morning the attention Of the students
in the assembly was attraced by a
rope hanging from the roof of the
building. Later the rope was drawn
up and at the end Of it was tied a
ladder. This useful piece of furni-
ture was used by the seniors when
they scrubbed the numerals off the
chimney.
