due to the resulting improvement
in farmers financial condition and
the increased business which these
farmers would give the banks.e
A Matter Of Habit
Discussing the question a. to
why farmers rely on store instead
OF bank credit. the report says that
many do so out OF habit and do not
realize how high the cos, Of the
store credit is.
There are others, however. who
cannot obtain credit from banks"
It goes on. "This Is often due to
the fact that no contact has been
established and the farmers credit
rating has not been determined.

ADVERTISING VALUE
OF A WINNING TEAM

Whatever one may think of it, the
fact remains that the University of
Arizona has attracted more attention
throughout the country with its cham
pionship polo team than with its
splendid school of mines, which rivals
in excellence that of any educational
institution in the United States.
Except in the southwest little had
been heard of the University of Ari-
zona until its polo team defeated that
of Stanford university. 1t also de-
feated the very fine team of 10th
cavalry officers at Fort Huachuca.
Now it is matched to play the Yale
The Coconino sun., 1924-03-07

team for the national intercollegiate
championship, and all the country is
hearing of the University of Arizona
poloists. It makes good advertising
for the university. A winning team
that is also a championship contender
always does that.
A large share of credit for devel-
oping the Arizona team is due to
Col. R. M. Parker, U. S. army, COM
mandant of the reserve officers
training corps at the university.
With nothing but a group of his
cadets, a passable selection of cav.
airy horses, ordinary service saddles
and stretch of desert for a playing
field, he went to work and built up a
fine polo team.-El Paso Herald.
