According to the Southern His
torical Papers on January 18.
1862. and approved by President
Davis, the Confederate States
Congress organized Arizona in
to a Confederate Territory. This
territory took in the whole ante.
bellum area of New Mexico (of
which Arizona was then part,

River.
Since Arizona was carved out
of New Mexico during the Civil
War, it will be seen at once that
its primitive history must be

leo, who visited it about the mid
Gle of the sixteenth century.
However, they found it inhabit
ed by the Aztecs whose history
in this territory dips back far
beyond any written record. For
that far off age they we're a
highly civilized race. Their mas
sive acqueducts and the cliff
dwellings are silent monuments
of a mighty past.
Coronado made his first ap.
pearance in 1910. San Gabriel
was founded in 1898, which was
deserted for the establishment
of Santa Fe about 1905 by Juan
de Onate. He was q wealthy
resident of Zacatecas. who mar.
ried the great granddaughter OF
Montezuma, the powerful Aztec
chieftain. So far back is the
reach of the primitive days that
the deepest mystery hovers over
it all.
New Mexico was ceded to the
United States by Guadalupe
Hidalgo in 1848. It was organ
lied as the Territory of New
Mexico ia 1850. On February
"a, 1868, Arizona was organized
as a Territory out of New Mex.
leo. On February IA, 1912. Ari.
zona was adopted into the Union
as 3 State.
Arizona is said to have deriv
ed it's name from a ranch in So
nora which the Papago Indians
called "Ariconas." By that they
meant a place of few springs.
There is no record of any nick.
name borne by Arizona.
In 1868, the year Arizona was
set off from New Mexico. she
adopted "Ditat Deus" which
means God enriches," as the
State Motto.
The Legislature of Arizona
adopted as it's State flower the
sequoia cactus.
The Territorial capital was
moved from Prescott to Phoenix.
The old capital was situated in
the Pine Mountains in the ex.
treme northern end of the rich
est in all the Great Southwest.
Arizona has an area of 113, ,956
square miles; extreme length,
800 miles; extreme breadth, 355

FARM LOAN BUREAU
LOANS $224,301,
Federal Board Believes Banks Can
Meet Almost Any Borrow
ing Demand.

Loans aggregating s224. 400 and
numbering 74.055 were made by the
federal farm loan banks last year.
Congress was Informed today in the
annual report of the farm loan board
This is a very gratifying result"
said the report. but a feature much
more gratifying to those charged
with the administration Of the bank
system IS that II represents a COM
plete response to the borrowing de-
mands upon the system, and that it
shows a steady and normal flow of
business by months.
I'm view of the fact that the year
has been one OF very considerable
borrowing demands, we believe it
may be accepted as measuring the
maximum call upon the banks and as
demonstrating their capacity to re-
spond to such demands under any ex-
cept very unusual and extraordinary
conditions"
Farm loan bonds to the value of
S2TS60OooO were sold to the public
during the year. the report contin-
ued, and the difference between this
total and the amount of tho fund
that was advanced through loans has
been used to retire S70,150 oOo bonds
held by the Treasury. This reduced
the total Of such bonds in the Treas
ury to s112,sS5.000. Earnings OF the
banks for the year were placed at
s5.6s2.6s4.
In the year ended November 90.
1922. the banks had made foreclosure
sales to protect loans aggregating
sf4925.ee4. The proceeds from, the
sale amount to s39,701, ,625.
The report also set out that 36l
national farm loan associations had
been organized over the country. dur
ing the year and that twenty-five such
associations had been liQuidated by
the consolidation, leaving a total of
