THE TIME YOU
LOSE---TELEPHONING

The time you lose is as val
uable as the time you use
telephone.
The above advice enclosed with
our telephone bill the first of this
month.
/ Arrived just after we'd been
cogitating why the big town rule
that one inquifing for a number
not in the book is referred TO "in-
formation" I"
Whereupon he must hang UP his
receiver and again ring central to
give her the number just revealed
by information"
Probably information and the
operator are as much as four feet
apart, in the same room. Often,
likely as not, they are one and the
same person.
The one to half dozen new mem
bers not in the book could SO easily
be pasted up where the operator
could see it.
Verify the time you lose is as
valuable as the time you use, espe-
cially as usually in calling a num-
ber not in the phone book you lose
more time getting the number than
you use talking to it after you get
it.
Flagstaff all the same as Chi
cago and New York in the tele-
phone rules.
Not referring no, not on your
life-to our obsolete phone equip
ment by which subscribers lose adj
ditional time they could so wen
use if they didn't lose it.

Miss Costigan has the utmost faith
in Flagstaff and belief that it will
continue to grow even more rapidly
than in the past. She intends to keep
her amusement features even with
this growth.
The ice palace, which likely will be
of concrete and brick, with Spanish
style front, will cover all of the prop
erty Miss Costigan recently bought on
Aspen avenue. 1t is 134 feet deep by
G5 feet wide. This is large enough
to afford an ice skating floor at least
% by more than 100 feet, with room
for a dancing floor in front. The
restaurant part will be on a balcony in
front, according to present plans, ac-
cessible from the dance floor and the
street. The dance pavilion will be
separated from the rink by a glass
wall. Around the rink will be a
wooden platform for spectators and
for dancers to lounge on when resting.
In Los Angeles last week, Miss
Costigan thoroughly Investigated the
ice rinks proposition. She found them
very popular there and was advised
that they were sure to be here. She
at first intended buying her own ice
manufacturing plant, but finding that
this would cost a minimum of about
$4,000, decided to follow the ad De

BEEF MEN ORGANIZE TO
STABILIZE THE MARKET

Harry Saxon, former sheriff and
member of the Legislature from Santa
Cruz county as we'll as one of the
prominent cowmen of his county, is
representing the Cattlemen's Coopera
tive Marketing association of Cali
fornia, Arizona and Nevada, and es-
tablished an office in the Babbitt
building which he believes will soon
become permanent institution.
The cooperative Marketing associa-
tion which he represents was organ
lied much on the plan of the many
successful citrus fruit associations in
California for the purpose Of properly
handling the beef cattle of these three
states and maintaining steady prices.
The market association maintains
selling organization in Los Angeles
and San Francisco, which organization
keeps in touch with men in the diff
ferent localities where beef is pro-
duced. The selling organization adj
vises the field men of the quantity and
quality wanted and the price. The
packing houses are finding the new
system a good one and are steady
buyers of the association. The old
haphazard method of shipping cattle
onto the market resulted in glutted
markets and bad prices. The new
method prevents glutted markets but
furnishes a steady market as needed
and at prices the-cowmen know in adj
vance.
''This association" says Mr.. Saxon
"has handled over half of all beef
ca+f1a nf1f on fbo California market
since it started its operations last
April and has been doing million
dollar business each month for the
past three months. still have cat
tie outfit down on the border and be-
leve that cattle are coming back and
will be profitable again in this range
country, especially with systematic
marketing of our beef" he said.

Many Flagstaff music lovers will
take special work at the college this
coming year. The physical education
department has enlisted several whose
ambition it had been to take training
for coaching but who were unable to
get this training anywhere in the
southwest and could not afford to at
tend some institution several hundred
or thousand miles away.
Flagstaff people as a rule know
much less about the broadened scope
of instruction at the college than the
majority of teachers and students out
side this community. For bulletins
have been sent the latter, bringing in
many new students from other points
in this state and all over the south
west.
The opening of the twenty-sixth
year of the Northern Arizona State
Teachers college on Monday, Septem-
Der 28, 1925, marks a new era in the

GULL OUT POOR
HENS Is URGED
BY CARTHWAITE

! Arrangements are now being made
by the agricultural extension ser.
vice for Il series of poultry culling
demonstration to be held in vari.
Gus parts of Imperial Valley on June
15 to 20.
According to Farm Advisor Garth
waite, there is nothing more needed
by local poultry producers than to
weed and Gull out large number
of Improbable hens when are do
ing their best to eat the farmers
out of farm and home. An average
hen WILL eat about II pounds of feed
in a year. On an average, mash
will cost $500 per hundred, milo
maize will be worth to the farmer
$50 per hundred, barley the same
and wheat about 500. Probably
not more than one-third of all the
hens IN Imperial Valley get any
mash ut all; hence in taking the ~
pounds to be half milo maze and
nalf barley the cost at $3.50 per
hundred would be Sl.0S. 1t would
take, at 22 cents per dozen, which is
the average price received for eggs
by local producers, five dozen eggs
to pay for this poor feed alone.
Add to this $l.os, the cost of the
green alfalfa eaten, cost of labor III
caring for and feeding chickens,
gathering, packing and hauling
eggs, ana the cost would run up to
al least $50 per bird per year. At
% cents per dozen this would neccs-
state seven dozen or 81 eggs, that
each hen would have to lay before
she would bring i'll a profit to the
p0ultryman. COnsiderlmg the poor
reed, care and housing most chick
ems mere get, it is doubtful whether
average hens here will lay that
many, and great many will lay
less.
Poultry raisers should, then ac-
cording TO Garthwaite, not be con
tent to let Il lot of scrubby hens
run around eating quantities of feed
and not produce even enough eggs
TO pay for the feed alone. There
are very few poultry flocks in I'm
pcrial Valley where owners could
not cull out from - to 80 per cent
of their hens and still get rs many
eggs.

Than Agree to
Collection Plan


SANTA BARBARA, June 9.-W.
P. Butcher, Jr,, yeferee in bank
ruptey for Santa Barbara county,
has resigned because he "cannot
be a party to the present plan for
settling the debts of L. G. Lewis, -
founder of the Atascadero colony.
Butcher was appointed by Fed
eral Judge William p. James sev-
eral months ago to handle hc
bankruptcy proceedings of the
Lewis companies. Lewis liabilities
were listed at $l0.0CO000 and his
assets at $l,000,0O0.
The plan to which Butcher OBJ
jected was the one advanced by
Oscar L. Willett, attorney for
Lewis, which called for the issuance
of certificates to real estate upon
deposit of 20 per cent of the amount
of the claims against Lewis. The
money collected was to be used to
pay off million dollar mortgage
held by San Francisco bank.
