EXHIBIT OF THINGS RY. SERVICE COSTS
MADE FROM COPPER $5, ,1O9, 100000 A DAY
IS NOW BEING SHOWN LESS THAN IN 1920

Arizona, largest producer of copper,
has been given new insight into the
multidinous uses to which her famous
red metal is put by the copper and
brass products exhibit which has been
shown throughout the state during the
past nine months, in the opinion of
officials of civic organizations which
have displayed the exhibit in their
respective communities.
The exhibit was sent to this state
last fall by the Copper and Brass
Research association in New York, for
showing at the 1924 state fair, at the
suggestion of the Arizona Industrial
Congress. 1t created so much sue
cess at the fair that the Arizona chap
ter of the American Mining Congress
arranged with the Industrial Congress
to offer it for display in all cities of
the state. Since that time the ex-
hibit has been shown in Phoenix,
Tuscon, Nogales, Bisbee and Douglas,
and is now on display in Prescott.
Although the largest producer of
copper, Arizona is naturally but a
small consumer of the red metal as
compared with the thicklysettled and
highly-developed industrial sections of
the east, and the exhibit of copper
and brass products has been all the
more interesting here on that account.
The display includes several hundred
products used in the building, auto
motive and other Industries, and shows
numerous ornamental and novelty
uses as we'll, incidentally, it is also
reported that the exhibit has caused
greater attention to the use of copper
and brass products in this state

In the four years that have elapsed
since September 1, 1920, when the
guarantee" of net return to the rail-
roads as a result of federal war time
operation were withdrawn and the
roads were left to make both ends
meet as best they could, the railroads
through lower rates have reduced the
cost of transportation to the public
by $5,109,000 day and have reduced
their costs of operation to $4,S52,000
day. The net return of the roads in
September 1920 averaged $2,656000 a
day and in June 1924, the last month
for which figures are available, aver
aged $2,1S5, 900, according to the Rail-
way Age.
Reduction in railroad expenses of
$4,852,000 day has been principally
due to reduction in wages and effici
ency- of management. Reduction of
wage rates saved the railroads $1,710,-
900 day in June, 1924, as compared
with the wage bill in September 1920
Through efficiency of management the
number of employees has been greatly
reduced, there being 365,00O less en-
ployes in service in June 1924 than in
September 1920

Flagstaff Gets a Big
Boost In Phone Paper

The September issue of The Moni-
tor, the official publication of the en-
ployes of the Mountain States Tele
phone company, has a fine article on
Flagstaff, illustrated with half dozen
well printed pictures. The article is
we'll written and the illustrations
very appropriate. The cover of the
magazine is a masterpiece of color
printing, a popular view of San Fran
cisco Peaks, the pride of Cocoino
county. The Monitor is one of the
best printed papers in the country, al
ways interesting and profusely illus
trated 1t is printed in Denver, and
circulates among employees of the
Mountain States Telephone company
throughout the southwest. Flagstaff
will reap much benefit from the pub
licity afforded by The Monitor.

KANSAS CITY STOCK
YARD REPORT
September 5, 1924
By CHAS. M. PIPKIN
Correspondent

Trade in cattle this week developed
active demand at higher prices. The
general advance was 25 to so cents,
exceptions more. The tone in the
market was in marked contrast with
the sluggish condition last week. Feed
er demand broadened but was held
in check by the moderate receipts.
Hog prices f1uctuated within a Is to
% cent range and today were about
10 cents lower than week ago.
Lambs are slightly higher and sheep
steady. Receipts were largely West
ern grades.
This Weeks Receipts
Receipts this week were 67,725 cat
tie, 20,350 calves, $4,000 hogs, and A.
500 sheep, compared with $500 cat
tie, IS 400 calves, 10000 hogs and A.
300 sheep last week, and 89,75O cat
tie, 500 calves 74,925 hogs, and 49,
$50 sheep year ago.
Beef Cattle
Demand for fat cattle increased this
week and prices made substantial ad-
vances. Cooler weather improved the
beef trade and this was quickly re-
t1ected in the cattle market. The ac-
tivity in the trade gives a better out
look for the heavy fall runs of cat
tie which are now due Fed cattle
are in diminishing supply and this is
increasing the call for grass cattle.
Demand from now on will probably
continue large. Prime yearlings and
medium weight steers sold at $1O.25 to
Sill A few heavy steers made $11, but
$40 to $1065 was the prevailing range,
and good fed cattle in most weights
brought 50 to $40. They were 35 to
so cents higher. Wintered and straight
grass fat steers were 25 to 95 cents
higher Wintered grades sold up to
1925, and straight grass steers up to
$40. Cows and heifers were Is to
80 cents higher, and veal calves so
cents lower.
StOckerS and Feeders
Prices for stockers and feeders ad-
vanced % cents in the first two days
of the week, and feeders closed with
the full advance, but stockers eased
off again Country buyers are wait
ing for liberal receipts. They will
buy freely from now on.

STATE UNIVERSITY
WILL BUILD MODEL
FARM NEAR TUSCON

Because the administration of the
University of Arizona feels that some
day agriculture will be the greatest
industry in Arizona they are already
beginning to build what will be, in
the near future, the strongest col
lege OF agriculture in the United
States, it was announced this week by
President C. F. Marvin.
This plan is in keeping with the
announced policy of the board of re-
gents and the president to develop
those branches of the university that
are more directly connected with the
resources of the state. Last year spec
ial attention was given the depart
ments of geology and ore-dressing in
the college of mines and engineering
What was begun last year will be con-
tinued this year and in the future.
In speaking of the future plans of
the college of agriculture President
Marvin said:
Agriculture is the basic extractive
industry in the state. Long after min
ing ceases to be an industry in this
state, agriculture will continue to de-
velop.
Because of my belief in the devel-
opment of agriculture, l think we
should have one of the strongest coll
leges of, agriculture in the United
States. This does not mean it will be
the largest but that it will serve in
the best possible manner an agricul-
tural area which has unique prob
lens"
In addition to several new profess
sors in the college who have been call
ed in because of their special fitness
to teach the type of agriculture need
ed in Arizona, the University has this
year acquired $50 acre farm within
four miles of the campus gates.
The farm will be used chiefly for
instruction purposes and when all i'm
provements are completed it will pre-
sent what agricultural scientists feel
is the perfect ranch. Irrigation engin-
eers at the university will also work
out the most modern system of irri-
cation for the new farm and this par
ticular branch of work will be given
special attention during the year.
In selecting the new farm the uni
versity agricultural experts looked
over all the near by farm districts
and chose the new farm as having not
only good water supply but perhaps
the best soil in the Santa Cruz Valley.
The value of the ranch is placed at
$65, 900 without the improvements and
was given to the University of Arizona
by Tucson and Pima county citizens
and business firms through the Tue
son chamber of commerce.

One of the outstanding features of
the vacation trip of President Cool
idge, who recently returned from a
two weeks stay at his fathers farm
in Vermont, was the visit of Henry
Ford, Thomas A. Edison and Harvey
S. Firestone.
On their annual camping trip, these
three geniuses of industry and inven-
tion called upon the president on an
automobile tour through New Eng
land and for several hours discussed
with him various problems and condi-
tions.
The chief topic of conversation was
the future prosperity of the country.

ed the president that in their opinion
the continued improving prosperity of
the country depended upon the condi-

President Coolidge, Mr.. Edison said:

prosperity.

Million Dollar Train
Through Here Via S. F.

A Santa Fe train loaded with a mil
lion dollars worth of citrus and decid-
uous fruits was hauled through here
one day last week from southern Cali
fornia. The train required four mon
ster locomotives to pull the seventy
yellow refrigerator cars.
This solid train the record in length
to cross the San Bernardino noun
tains, had a crew of twenty men. The
train was made up in the yards at San
Bernardino and made good time west
