WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH
ARIZONA!

THE above is the title of an eye
opening editorial, reprinted on
page 4 of this issue, from the
Prescott Courier of Tuesday, Sep
tember 15.
In plain language, Editor w. P.
Stuart compares the miraculous
development of southern California,
to the inertia of Arizona. The de-
velopment of the Colorado river is
the theme of Mr.. Stuart's article.
Capital and confidence is it's text.
We suggest that you read it.
Mr.. Stuart prescribes no panacea
for its ills, but he makes plain that
the commonwealth is sick. A po-
tent remedy is needed.
Arizona has produced it's just
share of the wealth of this nation.
Billions of dollars of wealth have
been taken from the mines in the
past three decades. Where it that
wealth now? Why has it not been
turned back into enterprises which
could produce still greater wealth?
Why has the money gained here
gone to build up other communi-
ties, southern California for in
stance? Why is there no financial
confidence and faith in Arizona?
With one single, shining excep-
ton, James Douglas of Jerome and
Douglas, those who have achieved
millions from the mines Of this
state have removed themselves and
their gains to other portions of the
country. Nor are the large owners
of Arizona-gained capital the only
ones who show lack of confidence
and faith in this state. Profession
al men, business men and wage
earners are, in great numbers,
sending their profits to California,
Florida, New York,-all over-for
the development of those states,
living here temporarily, in a man
ner temporary and half-hearted,
until they make their stake"
when they will go to the home of
their hearts desire.
That's one of the things that's
the matter with Arizona.

PREDICTS 1925 WILL
BE EXCESSIVELY DRY
THIS WEATHER PROGNOSTI-
CATION IS OF UTMOST I'M
PORTANCE TO FARMERS.

The British department of meteor
ology predicts that 1925 will be year
Of excessive drought. This prognosti-
cation is of the utmost importance to
farmers.
The world enters upon new year
under the threat that shortage of bread
grains will be felt sharply before an
other harvest in this country If we
are to have drought we shall enter
next year not only with very small
carry-over of grains from this year but
also with short crops.
The British prediction is based upon
the alleged discovery of a connection
between rainfall and what are called
solar prominences. The latter are
defined as tongues Of flaming gas that
leap out from the surface OF the sun
for a distance sometimes as great as
100000 miles
Relatively between these spouts OF
fire and frequency of rainfall on the
earth was first noted in 1865 Since
then records OF the two form basis
for mathematical curves which appear
too definitely related to be presumed
to be merely coincidental.

LINTERS ARE USED
IN MAKING PAPER
NEW INDUSTRY EXPECTED TO
BRING DIRECT BENEFIT TO
SOUTH'S PRINCIPAL CROP.

ATLANTA, GA-The awarding of a
contract by the United States govern
ment for two million pounds of paper
manufactured from cotton linters is a
fact Of great moment to the industrial
and agricultural south.
Fhe paper is to be manufactured by
a southern concern, and will use dis
tinctive southern product, one that
heretofore has been regarded as VIZ
tually a waste.
Paper made from cotton Inter pulp,
il was stated here, is an unusually high
grade of permanent paper, especially
suitable for records that are to be pre-
served for long periods of years. Its
price is some higher than ordinary pa
per. but there should be demand, 1t
is claimed for sufficient amount OF
such paper for government corporate
and Individual use to utilize virtually
ali the cotton linters OF the south.
The perfection of these processes
and the prospects for future growth
indicate strong possibilities for anoth-
err profitable industry in the south
that will bring a direct benefit to the
south's principal agricultural crop.

LYNCHINGS ARE
ON THE DECREASE
THE NUMBER IN 1924 WAS
SMALLEST SINCE RECORDS
HAVE BEEN KEPT.

Let the churches cry out for lynch
less land in 1926, says the statement of
the Federal Council of Churches, an
nouncing it's third annual non-lynching
roll of honor.
Thirty-eight states earned places on
the roll of honor by being free OF
lynchings last year, according TO a
statement issued by the councils COM
mission on race relations.
Ten states, one more than last year,
bore the black shame of lynchings.
Though one more state had lynchings
than in 1928 the number of mob muir
ders was cut in half. Leaders point out,
however, that four lynchings have been
recorded so far in 1925, and that there
must be increased efforts on the part OF
the churches and government authori-
ties against this type of lawlessness.
Three new states appear on the roll
of honor this year: Arkansas, Okla
homa and Virginia. The name of four
states have been removed because OF
only one lynching in each during the
wear. They are Illinois and Kentucky,
which have been free OF lynchings
two years, and South Carolina and
Tennessee, which had clear record
in 1928. This shows, according to
officials of the commission, that the
abolition Of lynching can be achieved.
The number of victims OF lynching
in 1924 was TO- the lowest number since
records of the evil have been kept, ac-
cording to a statement made by Prof;
Monroe NJ. Work of Tuskeegee In
stitute. Tuskeegee, Ala, in phamphlet
soon to be published by the commission
on race relations.
THE next lowest numbers, says
the statement, were in 1917, when the
total number OF victims was SO, and in
1923. when the total number was g.
The highest number was 255 in 1892.
In 1924, however, there were lynch
ings in 10 states as compared with such
atrocities in 9 states inl923.

GAMBLER PRESIDED.

The Baltimore conference OF the
Methodist Episcopal church, south,
has voted against unihcation OF the
northern and southern churches, l4l

Methodist church in the District OF
Columbia, Maryland and Virginia

The conference broke into wild APP
plause at one stage of the proceedings
and was Quoted with difficulty by
Bishop Warren A. Gambler, OF Atlanta.
1--WE want none of that sort OF
thing" said the bishop sharply, rap
ping with his gavel.
The vote taken Wednesday was the
first to be taken since the question was
referred to the district conferences be-
tween the. general conferences OF the
two churches.
The atmosphere of Mount Vernon
Place Methodist Episcopal church
where the conference was held was
tense during the balloting. Many OF
those voting announced their votes III
voices trembling with emotion.
Under the laws of the southern
branch of the church three-fourths OF
the 4O,conferences must vote IN favor
of the unifcation before it can be con-
summated. H., on
The church was split more than 81
wears ago over questions out OF when

FARMER ANXIOUS
TO BE LEFT ALONE
WANTS LESS "MONKEYING''
WITH THE MACHINERY. CO.
OPERATION SOUGHT.

WASHINGTON, D. Can equal
opportunity with other business, not
constant monkeyng" with his own
by the government, is held by Secre-
tary Jardine to be the chief desire OF
the American farmer
The sound farmer business man,
he declares in an interview to be pub
lished in the next issue OF the Ma
TONS Business, organ of the United
States Chamber of Commerce. instead
of seeking legislation to fix prices and
regulate details wants only legisla-
ton that will assist him in getting
reasonable credit on sound security
and in developing machinery Tor mar
ketng his produce successfully, and
that will t'put him on par with other
business men"
AS business man" with a
greater capital investment than the
average retail merchant" and "a bust
ness vastly more complies" the farmer
must, in the opinion of the secretary,
pay more attention to improved mar
keting methods. Pointing out that
there are already 5000 cooperative
grain marketing associations in the
United States and about the same
number of similar live stock shipping
organizations, he emphasizes that the
hope of the producer to get a larger
share OF the consumers dollar lies
mainly in cooperative effort"
IF applied in the right way" he
says, cooperation can make OF
American farming big, voluntarily
unified, permanently and dependably
profitable business in way that no
paternalstic legislation could possibly
do.
what we all need to do is to talk
less tommyrot and throw fewer mon
key wrenches into other peoples ma
chinery. We want to stop trying TO
line up one group against other
groups. We want to work together.
Americans should be cooperating, not
quarreling with each other over the
interests OF this group or that,

COCOANUT GROVE
BRINGS BIG WEALTH
GIANT PLANTATION is IRRI'
GATED TWICE A DAY BY
TIDE IN THE PACIFIC.

Ten wears ago Sidney E. Farwell,
Harvard graduate of Brookline, Mass,
while on a visit in Porto Rico noticed
that native with dozen cocoanut
trees in his back yard was economi-
cally independent. Thereupon he de-
termined to grow cocoanuts. Two
thousand acres of jungle land in Pana-
ma was cleared and cocoanut trees
planted. Today he has 111,000 trees
and is owner of the largest single CO.
coanut plantation on this continent.
Through forty miles OF bitches this
giant plantation is irrigated twice daily
BY a 20-foot tide in the Pacific. From
one to three hundred people are en-
ployed and reside in a modern electri-
fed town just 10 minutes rowing dis
lance from the shipping point on the
Panama canal Every modern conven-
fence for utilization OF the crop and
comfort of those employed has been
provided for. Thousands of cocoanuts
are shipped for fruit-stand demand, oil
is pressed from millions of them and
the husks are sold to make door mats.
Demand Exceeds Supply.
Although 10 billion cocoanuts are
produced yearly in various parts of
the world there is never enough to
meet the demand. Cocoanuts have the
krichest fat known and is very digesti-
BILE. Use OF the oil is almost universal
while from a commercial viewpoint ii
dwarfs most of the. Taaive tropical in
dustries.
Cocoanut growing is the safest form
! of horticulture in the world. They are
planted by throwing them in the
ground any old way, but usually in a
slanting attitude with the three-eye
end sticking out Rain gets on these
eyes and one of them being fertile
swells and bursts. The tree and roots
come out of the same eye. The roots
grow down into the ground but are
usually transplanted i'll permanent
rows where domesticated. Each cocoa
nut tree drinks about seven gallons
of water each day,
Trees are supposed to bear in seven
years and will keep on bearing for a
hundred years Each tree will put
forth about Is sprays of nuts a year
and there are from to p nuts in a
spray. Everything there is about CO.
coanut is on the tree at one and the
same time-in all stages of develop
ment-sprouts, blossoms, young CO.
coanuts and ripe nuts.

GEORGIA MAN GROWS
NEW KIND OF APPLE
DEVELOPED BY c. R. PORTER
ON TREAT MOUNTAIN AFTER
LONG EXPERIMENT.

ATLANTA, Ga. = An improved
Georgia apple that promises to create
sensation in horticultural circles has
been developed by c. R. ("CharlieO
Porter, apple king and sometimes
called the Luther Burbank" in apple
culture. Mr.. Porter owns several
thousand acres of apple lands in Har-
Alison and Polk counties, near Esom
Hill, Ga.
The improved apple or Porter va
rietv, as it has been termed, is rather
large, practically round, has. yellow
skin and reddish blush, yellow meat
and possesses a rare flavor.
The newest apple, though not alto
gether a brand new product, having
been brought from the Balkans, has
been developed under special culture
in the Porter orchards.
In discussing new apples today with
horticulturists at the state capitol Mr..
Porter said that his new apple was
decidedly unusual for the apple grow
ing sections eof Georgia 1t runs
from one hundred to two hundred to
the box, he said. 1t keeps we'll for a
long period, Mr.. Porter stated, and
will therefore find ready shipment for
long distances. 1t is probable that a
shipment of the apples will be made to
Europe this fall.
Many varieties of apples are grown
in the Porter orchards and in other APP
pie sections of HARRISON and Polk
counties. The industry which flour
ished before the civil war, when noun
taineers carried wagon loads OF apples
to Columbus and other cities, has been
revived during the last few years, Mr..
Porter said. Treat mountain, in the
two counties mentioned, is now IA
NOUS for its apples. The varieties in
clude Yates, Terrys, Grimes Golden,
Treat Specials, Staynan Winesap, De-
licious Royals and Others.

MUCH GEORGIA SEED
CORN is WORTHLESS
TESTS OF CORN FROM 65
COUNTIES SHOW IS PER
CENT UNFIT FOR USE.

Only 65 per cent of the seed corn in
the cribs of the Georgia farmers this
year is fit for use, according to the
Sears Roebuck Agricultural Founda-
ton. The figure is based on germina-
ton tests of seed corn from 243 farms
in 65 counties in the state that were
entered in the national seed corn show
held in Chicago last week.
Fully IS per cent of the Georgia seed
corn tested showed poor termination,
according to J. S. Naylor, the expert
in charge of the testing. Presumably
they are the best ears that these farm
ers could find, and yet this large per
centage 70 them will not grow when
planted. Unless farmers test their
seed corn before planting time there
will be a prodigious amount OF re-
planting necessary. Testing now will
prevent an absolute shortage at har-
vest time, he says.
Lesson for Corn Growers.
"The big lesson of the national seed
corn show can be learned by each
Georgia corn grower in his own crib,
says Mr.. Naylor Take the dozen
best ears. Then take the poorest
dozen ears. Each dozen will plant an
acre of ground. The land is the same,
the work is the same. Same weather
Same overhead. Same cost. At the
end of the season the best dozen ears
will yield perhaps 27.2 bushels OF corn
on the acre; the poorest dozen ears
will yield Is bushels. The II good
ears will yield twice the crop OF the Il
poor ears. This is the lesson that ev-
cry farmer should take to heart"
The Georgia state sweepstakes o
the national seed corn show was wor
by E. w. Morris, of Henderson, Har'
Alison county, but he was later de
feated for the national championship
bv Mrs. Elsie M. Paluska, of Waiver
", ILL.,, whose entry was awarded the
thousand dollar c. M. Kittle trophy
the big prize of the show.

General Rowdyism and Vandalism
BY Both Sexes Reported

Because of wet" party staged by

Broadway and Seventy-seventh street
Friday night, says the New York
Tribune, Walter Guzzardi. its presi-
dent, has announced that the hotel will
decline any further bookings from
high school fraternities or other school
societies.
There were 200 boys and girls at
the affair. Flasks of whisky and other
Liquors were passed around freely.
Rooms adjoining the ballroom where
the students held forth, and which
were also set aside for their use, were
subjected to acts of general vandal-
ISM Guests were disturbed. The stu
dents were finally asked to leave at
midnight. They refused. They quit
only when they were literally frozen
out by hotel employees opening win
dows in the ballroom. Finally a po-
liceman was called to stop the noise
THE ball was arranged by the
Sigma Tau Epsilon Fraternity" said
Mr.. Guzzardi. "Mr. Robert H. Mat
thews, listed as president, and Mr.. H..
c. Waterman and Mr.. Bertrand. Ben
nett acted on behalf of the Greek let
ter society, whose headquarters were
registered on the hotel books as 20

Reaches Grave Proportions.
THE Belleclaire is convinced that
! it is to the interest of the self-respect-
ing hotels of New York, as well as to
their imperative Obligation to the COM
munity of parents, to take an advanced
action in curbing such excuses by
minors" said Mr.. Guzzardi.
Every hotel man knows that juve
nile drinking has reached grave pro-
portions The hotels know that car
ried liquor is in evidence at practically
every function arranged at hotels by
| student organizations, and they know
that clandestine drinking on the part
Of girls and boys from Is to 20 years
OF age is resulting in deplorable eN-
cesses.
The Waldorf Astoria has just been
subjected to a painful experience III
connection with a fraternity dance,
during which students placed severe
strain on the hospitality of that dis
tinguished house"
Couldn't Stop Drinking.
Speaking of the Sigma Tau Epsilon
fraternity, which name is believed now
to have been assumed by the 200 who
made a scene at the Belleclaire Friday
night, Mr.. Guzzardi said that drinking
was general among its guests in spite
of efforts of the hotel management to
stop it.
Young men reached such state
of intoxication that they had to be
carried privately from the hotel
through a rear entrance" said Mr..
Guzzardi. Girls as well as young men
drank from the TASKS"
When the guests departed twenty
five empty bottles were left behind.
