The need for a new post office in Berlin is being talked about con- 3iderably at the present time. The present post office, at the corner Of Farnington avenue and Worthins- ton Ridge, in the Cole store building is too small for the amount Of work being carried on, in view Of the fact that the district Is growing steadily each year. according to the tory going the rounds.
 Residents point to Konsington with, its beautiful, new and up-to- late building and wonder why Der in can't have one just as attractive nd up.to- date. if not quite as large. ,ensington needs larger office be- uuse Of the fact that there Is greater volume of mail since the >mSrican Paper Goods company which has large mailing list, pa ronizcs that office, as does the B"r- in Construction company to a great ,xtefIt.

zona industrial congress, which in the
aggregate exceeded figures for No
vember, and for December, 1923.
General precipitation over the state
during December came as a welcome
relief to stockmen. Rain or snow Wis
tied all sections. and while moisture
now can have little effect on winter
feed except in southern desert areas,
it replenished water supplies and in
some localities made feed available
that could not be reached before on
account of water shortage. AT the
same time, however, low temperatures
caused considerable shrinkage of cat
tie and made feeding of many small
herds necessary.
Sales 6f cattle to points outs de the
state We're below normal during the
year, owing to unsatisfactory M rket
conditions and drought in California
which curtailed principal outlet for
feeder stock. Breaking of the drought
resulted in a large increase in inquir-
les for cattle in December, though
generally too late in the season to be
of much advantage. The market out
look for 1925 is more favorable.
Sheep range conditions during the
past month have been below normal,
all the sheep in the Salt River valley
being on pasture. Owing to the fact
that half of the sheep have not yet
been shipped down from the north,
there was sufficient feed on the trails.
to take care of the movement south.
The early lambing of bands in the
valley is in full swing, and the recent
cold weather has not affected the con-
dition of sheep. Some wool has been
contracted at prices ranging from SOC
to 53c a pound, but the bulk of the
clip probably will not be sold until
shearing time.

FURTHER IMPROVEMENT
NOTED IN ARIZONA
BUSINESS CONDITIONS

Arizona wrote 'finis" to 1924 with
general business at a level above that
of year ago, and with favorable
prospects for the new year. The past
II months have seen progress in every
branch of industry, with the single
exception of cattle, and 1925 from
all indications viii continue the i'm
provement of the past three years.
Agricultural production of the state
during the past year is expected to
show material increase over the to-
tai value of S36,000,000 in 1923. Pre-
hminary estimates of the T. S. bureau
OF agricultural economics give ten ma
jor crops a total value of $29d98, 900
compared to 26,268,000 for 1923 and
$22, 1887 Geo for 1922, based on prizes
as Of December ] each year. Value Of
cottonseed citrus fruits, cantaloupes,
lettuce, deciduous fruits, poultry and
eggs, and other products not included
should bring the aggregate close to
$40,000,00C
Figures of the livestock sanitary
board for the first ten months indi-
cate that cattle shipments to points
outside the state totaled about 100000
for the year. This figure includes
stock moved to outside feeding
grounds as we'll as. stock sold. Ship
ments of lambs during the year prob
ably aggregated above 100000, while
wool production was around 100000
pounds. Lamb and wool prices were
fairly good, with excellent prospects
for the coming season.
Early estimates from sources
within the state place Arizona's cop
per production at 670,000,000 pounds
for the year, but it is doubtful if the
combined value of the copper, gold,
silver and lead produced will ma
terially exceed the 1928 figure of
S102, 100000
December business on the whole ex-
ceeded that of the corresponding

retail trade was generally reported as

WONDERS OF THE BEAUTIFUL
APACHE NATIONAL FOREST

permittees, most of whom live on or
near the forest. Much of this stock
spends only it's summer on the high,
cool mountain ranges of the Apache
forest, and IS driven to the lowerlying
country to the north and south for the
winter. In addition, 263 settlers on
the forest are allowed to Craze nearly
5000 head OF work and milk stock on
the forest free of charge.
Besides its purely commercial value
this forest is of immense Importance
because Of it's location on the head
waters of many of the streams ulti.
mately running into the Roosevelt
reservoir, which supplies irrigation
water and power for the Salt River
valley.
In order to make mountain areas
like the Apache forest more accessible
to travellers, and in order that fires
may be more easily reached, the forest
service is developing lines of COM
munlcatlon. In accordance with this
policy, 200 miles of telephone lines,
"a miles of roads, and $50 miles of
trails have been constructed in this
forest. A road from Clifton to Sprin-
gerville, running through the heart OF
the finest mountain scenery on the
Apache forest, is now being built by
the forest service in cooperation with
Apache and Greenlee counties. This
project will allow travel between
northern and southern transcontinen-
tai routes. Several other roads which
connect with the tranScontinental sys-
tenn are now being built into the for
est from the north and south The
completion of these roads will do
much to make the forest more popu-
lar for camping, fishing and hunting. /
Even then, however, many portions
will still be far enough in the ''back-
woods" to delight those who desire to
get away from the main routes of
travel. Within the Apache national
forest there are several hundred |
miles of trout waters. The state has
recently established a fish hatchery
within this forest.
The Coconino sun., 1925-01-16

Off the beaten path, in the White
mountains of Arizona, stretching
along the New Mexico line from
Springerville to Clifton, lies the
Apache national forest. For the most
part it is high mountain country with
mountain meadows, rugged peaks, and
deep canyons. The forest lies in the
country over which the Apache In
dians at one time roamed, and from
them it takes its name. 1t covers a
gross area of 1,226,420 acres and is
administered from Springeryille, Ari-
zona, a Small town on the transcon-
tinental National Old Trails highway,
about 100 miles southeast of the San
ia Fe railroad at Holbrook.
The timber resources of the Apache,
which have practically not been touch
ed by an axe are estimated 10 consist
of 2,400, 900 board feet of saw TIM
Der of which rs per cent is yellow
pine.
The remainder is made up mostly Of
Douglas fir, white fir and spruce. In
addition, the south end of the forest
has extensive stands of pinon and

wood. Most of the saw timber is now
inaccessible because of it's distance
from the railroad For this reason, the
present annual cut of about one mill
lion feet is confined to the timber
needed for local consumption by small
communities and ranches on or near
the forest. In future years, the
Apache forest may be expected to oc-
cupy an important place in the TIM
ber production of the state.
Within the forest there are few
flat, treeless areas suitable for the
growing of crops. Such lands have
been listed in 215 tracts which have
been settled by homesteaders. OF the
lands which have been retained in
public ownership, none are considered
to have sufficient value for agricul-
ture to warrant alternating them as
homesteads.
A large livestock industry has been
developed upon the Apache forest, and
all of the available range is now used
under government permits. 1t sup
norts a total of $4,000 cattle and 34,-
600 sheep, which are owned by 18A

HOW TO SAVE MONEY
WHEN SHOPPING
By MRS. HARLAND II. ALLEN
ppp1hpnutirdht4pn nftt y 4 rEapnpp
20, 1922, Harland H AllenD
SOMETHING FOR NOTHING

1t Is just as hard as 1t ever was to
get something for nothing. And the
woman who hopes to buy 39-cent goods
for "all-wool' is getting more cotton
than wool, and storing up trouble for
herself, for after a few weeks the
bargain" of which she was so proud
is sure to be hopelessly shabby, and
she finds herself with literally nothing
for her pains.
1t is a false idea of economy that
makes shopper buy cheap all-wool
serges and flannels so thin and slea2y
that they pub apart with the sewing
1t is much better to get part-wool dress
goods that are firm and of durable
color, where the question of the initial
expense is a problem. While it does
always pay in the end to buy the best
all-wool serges and flannels-remember
you do not get these things for moth
ing.
SILK at the price of cotton Is a pit
fall that trips up many an unwary
shopper Good silks are expensive,
and you need not be surprised that the
silk limousine gown" that cost you
only ten dollars last summer scarcely
lasted the summer through. One such
experience teaches us that it Is better
to buy a good quality Of an unpreten-
tious fabric, than poor quality of an
expensive one. For instance, mercer
lied foulards and mulls are much bet
ter buys than cheap silks that are
weighted with tin salts and other
things that cause them to wear out
quickly, and have very little silk in
them anyway. And after the third or
fourth wearing your freshly-laundered
null of cotton foulard will look much
more attractive than frayed and
wilted silk.
On the same principle, any reason
sees ''linen suiting" offered at ten and
fifteen cents yard, that it is impos-
sibie to sell real linen at that price.
Your goods will be only cotton,
starched and CLOSED to look like linen.
Or If they contain any linen at all, 1t
is woven from short threads, and has
no strength. The dressing" Of starch
will all come out in the first wash,
and leave you a cloth that Is thin and
weak.
Many shoppers who think they can
not afford to pay the first cost Of good
materials are always dressed in shod-
dy, badly-fitting clothes, and in the
long run spend more on dress than
the woman who knows how to invest
in dependable grades.

Miss Snyder (writing on black
