MEETING OF 'hIOSSBACK'
OFFICERS OF INTEREST

Wednesday last the annual meet
ing of Arizona Mossback Mines Co.
was held at the office of the company
at the Mossback mines in Silver
Creek. While only few of the share
holders were present the stock was
we'll represented Charles Prochnow,
representing the stock held in Flag
staff; FRANKIE w. Keeffe, also repre-
senting Flagstaff share owners; Jess
w. Speidel, representing large eastern
shareholders, were present. L. l..
Wallace, counsel for shareholders,
was also in attendance at the meet
ing.
The meeting was one of the most
important held by this company in
several years, as the financial mat
ters appertaining to the company af-
fairs featured the discussion of the
shareholders, 1t appears that there
is more than 100000 in notes out
standing, which will have to be met
some time next fall, and it was to line
up this Indebtedness that the meeting
was primarily held, although there
was also an election of officers for
the ensuing year. 1t appeared to be
the belief that settlement of the
financial ENHANCEMENT will be- met
and that within a short time opera
ton of the property will be resumed.
The mines are among the large veins
of the district and the men who know
the game and have worked or sampled
the ore bodies inform us that there
are wonderful possibilities in the
property, the ore shoots being good
and of reasonable dimensions.
1t was supposed last year that
bonds would be issued and sold to
cover further development of the mine
at the 700 level and build a large mill,
but the sale was never consummated.
The examination of the mine should
be made by disinterested engineer
and future development mapped out
so that the best in the property would
be uncovered, and then milling plant
that would handle the ore economic
ally should be erected on the mine.
Water sufficient for all purposes can
readily be had and the plant should
be a uccess.-Kingman Miner.

UP few thousand feet in the air.
In the evening, probably, just to show
the difference between newspaper
scraps and real scraps the sporting
blood of the news hounds was stirred
by "a rounds of boxing. Jack Lynch
of Prescott, in the second round of
the principal contest, made Shine eat
the canvas for over 20 seconds. This
came about by Lynch getting quite
rough and purposely striking Mr..
Shine on the point of the jaw; Shine
retaliating by refusing to wake up and
fight any more.
The Silver Belt and Bulletin repre-
sentatives at Miami were resoluted as
real live entertainers and were heart
ily thanked for making the meeting
most enjoyable success.
The Superior Miami highway, which
has received so much praise as won
derful piece of road engineering, has
not been over-praised. The Apache
trail to Roosevelt dam is in splendid
shape and gives a magnificent view
of the country surrounding the famous
dam. No matter how much of Arizona
YOU have seen a trip around these two
routes is worth the time of any one.

RANGES SHOW GREAT
IMPROVEMENT LATELY

Pastures on the major grazing
areas of the district show general inn
provement is the substance of this
weeks kilograms to the weather bu-
reau office at Phoenix. Moderate to
heavy precipitation occurred in the
northern and eastern sections and was
generally beneficial but did not in
crease the water supply except pos
sibly in the vicinity of Williams,
where it was heaviest. High cold
winds in the southeast caused some
deterioration Of pastures but cattle
continue to hold up well. Although
one-fourth inch Of rain fell during the
week pastures in the Whiteriver sec
ton continue to dry up but are still
nutritious; stock water in that section
is sufficient. The range in the Pinto
section where for many weeks it has
been poor has begun to improve.
Patches of snow are still to be seen in
the Grand Canyon.
Cutting and baling of first crop
alfalfa continued during the week all
though delayed somewhat by the light
scattered showers of the 18th and
10Th; the rain, followed Immediately
by strong and persistent winds, was
not heavy enough to do damage of
consequence. Early planted grain is
turning yellow. Cotton has developed
in thoroughly satisfactory fashion,
owing largely to favorable tempera-
lures; some of the Pima variety is
now in the four-leaf stage. The crop
is heavily infested with aphis or plant
lice which, unless the weather is warm
and dry, may do considerable damage.
Unlike last season, little sore shin
has appeared; stands are averaging
from good to excellent.
Short staple planting continues in
volume. Some truck, beans, toma-
toes and few melons, suffered slight
ly from the light frosts of the 22-23.
Figs and early apricots are growing
rapidly; the latter seems to have set
two crops. Most growers attribute
this freak to the light frosts during
blossoming.
In the Yuma Valley Thompson seed
less grapes are setting well. Volun-
teer cotton, of which the percentage
is large, IS making good progress in
that section.

ED SAYS ENROLL NOW
AND GET YOU A FORD

The nationwide announcement of
the Ford weekly purchase plan has
been greeted enthusiastically every
where, according to reports received
by Ed Babbitt, manager of Rabbits
Garage, Ford dealers. 1t is being ac-
cepted as new and forward-looking
move in the market of automobiles.
That it will benefit millions of FAM
lilies and have most salutary effect
upon the auto buying public goes
without saying, as it places something
of a new light upon motor car own
ership wherein the purchaser. is able
to avail himself of this modern neces-
sity.
"For some time past Ford dealers
have been selling cars and trucks up
on what is known as the deferred pay
ment plan in which the purchaser
makes a substantial initial payment,
secures his car and completes the pay
ment for it in regular installments, I"
says Ed.
'"rhis has been and will continue to
be Of immense benefit to numerous au-
to buyers whose means do not permit
the full outlay for car at the pur-
chase time, but who can easily make
the required regular payments.
"Now comes the Ford weekly pur-
chase plan which will make it possible
for additional millions to own and OPP
crate motor cars, as under the terms
of the plan as little as $5 will start
anyone toward the ownership of a
Ford car, Ford truck or Fordson trac-
tor. This initial payment, as well as
all subsequent payments, will be de-
posted to the customers credit in a
local bank and draw interest at the
regular savings rate.
SIt extends to the whole. family an
opportunity to participate in the car
purchase by permitting each member
to contribute a small amount weekly
to the plan with the wholesome effect
of intoxicating thrift and also demon
strating the benefits to be received
from regular and consistent accumu-
lation of funds to spend for things de-
sired.
"The price reduction Of Ford cars
and trucks which went into effect last
October, bringing them to the lowest
level in the history of the Ford Motor
company, opened a market Of unusual
proportions and with the Inauguration
of the Fork weekly purchase plan this
market now becomes even more COM
prehensive," concludes Mr.. Babbitt.

C. A. DIRECTORS FAVOR
ACTION ON RIVER PACT

Arizona made the mistake of life
time-or perhaps it was only the mis-
take of a legislature-when it allowed
the Colorado river compact to to slip
by unratified.
That is the practically unanimous
belief of the group Of directors Of the
Calumet & Arizona, operating the {.
& A. mine at Bisbee, the New Cor
nelia at Ajo, the Eighty-five at Lords
burg and developing the Verde Central
at Jerome.
Several members Of the party can
didly expressed this opinion Wednes-
day night. They pointed out the inn
mense benefits that would have ac-
crued to the citizens of Arizona, to
farmers and cattlemen as well as
mining companies, had not the sixth
Legislature, apparently not knowing
either it's own mind or that of the
public, allowed the pact to go unrat-
flied, and thus permitted Arizona to
postpone indefinitely development
of power and irrigation from the Col
orado that, as w. B. Mershon of Sag
inaw, Michigan, expressed it, would
have caused this state to blossom like
rose"
Members of the party were frank in
criticizing the stand-aside attitude OF
Governor Hunt, although others ex-
pressed the belief that had the pub
lie sufficiently voiced its wishes m
the matter he might have called a
special session to consider the pact.
"He is playing politics, you know"
said one.
Development of the Colorado would
furnish power to Arizona at as cheap
a rate as three-fourths of d cent a
kilowatt, it was pointed out.
Doesn't Arizona realize what the
Colorado power would mean to the
future of this state?" the Calumet &
Arizona directors demanded. George
P. Newett of Ishpeming, Michigan,
was telling of immense construction
work going on at the New Cornelia at
Aio. When he had finished describ-
ing what was to be expected from
completion of the new concentration
upon which 1900 men are now en-
ployed, Mr. Mershon injected the fol-
lowing remark:
"And when Arizona gets the Colo
RADIO river power there will be lot
of other things like that, Think of
its meaning for the farmers! Do they
want extensive and cheap irrigation? ?
Do they want cheap power which will
enable them to develop sub-irrigation
Do the people in Arizona know that
development of the Colorado would
bring about the establishment of in
dustries in this state on big scale 2"
The conclusion reached in the con-
versation was that the sixth legisla-
ture apparently had not thought about
that.
