SANTA BARBARA

Santa Barbara, California was
visited with severe earthquake
shocks on Monday of this week,
commencing early in the morning
and continuing until darkness had
settled. A number of lives were
lost and millions of dollars in

stricken city which lies about
sixty miles north of Los Angeles.
Quakes occurred in different pla.

New York Physician Perfects Harm

The loss of as much as a pound OF
excess fat a day with no harmful rs-
suits Is the record made by many
pa tients Of DR.. r. Newman, licensed
practicing physician of 2se Fifth Ave
nue., New York, who announces that
he has perfected a treatment which
has quickly rid fat people of excess
weight. What Is more remarkable
Is the Doctors statement that he has
successfully treated thousands OF
patients for fat reduction without
change of diet or unnecessary exer-
cise. 1t is also said that fat people
who suffer from chronic rheumatism,
gout. asthma and high blood pressure
obtain great relief from the reduction
of their superfluous flesh. Realizing
that this sounds almost too good to
be true, tho Doctor has offered to
send without charge to anyone who
will write him, free trial treatment
to prove his claims, as we'll as his

immediate consideration. He Is of
the opinion that congress should pay
immediate attention to the recon-

members OF President Coolidges farm

gresham Simmon. also believes that
congress should pass a permanent Is

order to benefit Nebraska cattle men.
The ways and means committee has
an abundance Of information on the
subject and he urged that II report
out such bill after ono hearing.
Such a move would engender quick
action from the senate. He feels that
the emergency exists and a special

relief without further delay.

ga large slip recently occurred,
cutting off one of the principal work
1ngs. 1t is now necessary to use
very heavy 'timbers to maintain
some of this ground. This is very
costly and Verde Extension costs
are likely to increase. Slips in an
ore body Of this kind are very dan
gerous, because there is enormous
friction, and considerable likelihood
of fire occurring.
THE ores are heavy sulphides, and
once they were fired through this
process, it would keep the United
Verde Extension busy the rest of it's
life
S'We believe that the United Verde
Extension mine value does not equal
SO per cent of the price of the stock
at S24. If there is steady advance
in the cost, as we fully believe there
will be during the next two years
the recoverable profit will constantly
decrease. Consequently, the market
price of the stock should reflect this

WILLIAMS VALLEY TO BE
GAUGEO FOR RECLAMATION

R. Q. Grant, local weather observ-
er, and r. M. Stene, left yesterday
for trip up the Bill Williams river
from Parker for the purpose Of in
stalling rainfall guages in the valley
for the purpose of ascertaining the
amount of rainfall available on the
watershed for use in reclamation
work
The expense of the undertaking is
being assumed by the Williams Ri e.
corporation, according to w. S Nor
veil, attorney for the organization.
This corporation is contemplating
the reclamation of a large area Of
land along the river but wishes t.
obtain as much accurate data relative
to the amount of water availab BILE
for use as is possible before taking
further steps towards reclai1ning the
land, Mr. Norveil says.
The gauges will be installed in
seven different places along the riv-
er. One will be placed at Stene
camp on the river, while a second
one will be placed on Sandy Creek
near the old Owens postoffice A
third gauge will be installed on the
G. S. Palmer ranch on Trout Creek
between Ash Fork and Parker and
the fourth will be located near the
Bagdad mine 25 miles northwest of
Hillside. Number will be placed
southwest Of Kirkland in Peoples
valley, No. will be at Iron Springs
and No. z has already been installed
at the Tonto ranger station seven
miles northwest Of Skull Valley.
