FARMERS DAY AT THE UNI
VERSITY OF MARYLAND

Farmers Day, an event which if
former years has drawn thousands
of farmers from all parts of the
State to the University of Maryland,
has been scheduled for Saturday
May 80, according to DR.. H. J
Patterson, director of the State
Experiment Station and chairman OF
the committee on arrangements.
While a special program is usually
arranged for Farmers Day, the
chief purpose of the event has al
ways been to afford an opportunity
for the public to visit the institution
and to gain better knowledge of
the various lines of agricultural
work which are in progress.
Those who visit the University
this year will find completed several
improvements that were just being
started when the last Farmers Day
was held. At that time corner
stones for the new dairy building,
fronting on the misunderstanding
ton boulevard, and for the Richie
Gymnasium were laid. The stadium
and new athletic field were in the
process Of construction. All of these
have been completed. In addition
the landscape in the vicinity of the
poultry plant has acquired the ap
pearance of a small suburban de
veiopment with the construction of {
hundred houses for the hens entered
in the Maryland State Egg Laying
Contest.
Dairymen will find the new dairy
building with it's modern equipment
of particular interest while it is ex-
pected that poultrymen will discover
a new and valuable source of infor-
nation in the laying contest Crop
and livestock experiments under
way at the Experiment Station and
the different laboratories will afford
additional opportunities for visitors
to learn what the university is
doing to increase the knowledge of
agriculture.

Carter and his son, according to tn.

they had found zinc deposits but
when samples were sent east it was
found that instead of being zinc the
ore was nitrate, very similar to that
found in Peru and Chile. Peruvian

BUCKINGHAM MINE ON
PRODUCTION THIS YEAR

BATTLE MOUNTAIN, Nevada
The Buckingham gold-silver-lead mine
will be on production in 1926, accord
ing to an official announcement by
James A. Gray, president of the
Buckingham Nina Consolidated Mines
Company. He states that two and
one-half years supply of gold-silver
and lead ore for the proposed first
50-ton unit has now been developed,
as has a gravity-1oW water supply
for the mill. He further states that
mill financing is now being provided
for and that it is expected the con-
centrating mill will be completed
sometime during this coming sum-
mer. To date the present and pre-
vious owners of this virgin mine have
invested approximately $250,000 in
bringing the property to its present
state of development and about 80
days ago the company made test
shipment of ore found in high
grade seam, occurring within it's mill
ing grade of sulphide ore, for which
the smelter in Utah paid them at the
rate of $617O per ton.

NOW LET'S MAKE PARADISE
PARADISE INDEED

According to the dispatches re-
ceived Monday, the final control of
Verde river development now passes
into the hands of the Salt River Val
ley Water Users Association. The
full development of the potential ir-
rigation and power of this river
means much in the plans of a Great-
er Phoenix. Paradise and Deer Val
leys will presently be noted through
out the country, small as they are.
Some of the most beautiful vistas
are to be found in them. The soil
is unsurpassjng1y fertile. Some of
the best citrus fruit of the world will
be raised in these two valleys.
An interesting feature of the de-
velopment of the Verde river district
is the possibility Of bringing water
from the Colorado river through a
short tunnel down the Verde river
Engineers have given considerable
thought to this plan and some of
the best of them have declared the
plan not only feasible, but the least
expensive of any gravity plan yet
proposed to water the largest possi-
bic Arizona acreage by gravity.
It is not at all impossible that the
waters of the Colorado will yet roll
down the Verde past Phoenix and
water by gravity all of the several
millions of acres lying along the lower

burg, Parker and Casa Grande.-Ari-

is peculiarly a product of twentieth
century development. 1t is leading
in the right irection-toward a
Strengthening of the whole business
fabric of the United States.
Summarization and publication of
statistical facts concerning changes
in the supply-demand ratio of many
important commodities and products
give opportunity for scheduling
volume of production in general that
will more closely coordinate with
the estimated volume of consumption
thus tending to prevent maladjust-
ments in industry. Many trade pa
pers, bulletins. and the reports of the
of Commerce of the Uni
ted States are now serving industry
well in this way.
In the agricultural world teamwork
tends steady toward the further devel-
opment of cooperative producing and
associations. These as.
sociations are now numbered by the
thousands, and their members are
numbered by the hundreds of thou
sands. They have made their mis-
takes, fewer each year, and they have
had their successes, more each year
The farmers, in all that relates to
life and success on the farm, have
the cooperation and help of the ag-
ricultural colleges, experiment sta
tions. the Federal Reserve Banking
Systm, the Department of Agriculture,
and many good farm journals.
Thus more extensive and intelli-
gent teamwork in all phases of econ
omic life is rapidly coming to be more
and more effective in promoting the
general economic welfare of the coun-
try.

NOTICE TO TAXPAYERS

Heretofore taxpayers have been
urged to file their income tax returns
early. The filing of returns this
year is delayed, pending the enact
ment of the new revenue act now
before the Senate, which, as it passed
the House, contains changes in re-
gard to rates and other features. How
ever, there is nothing to prevent a
taxpayer at this time from closing
his books and computing his net in
come. Such computations will not
be affected by any provisions of the
new act. The actual preparation of
the return itself. after the computa-
tlon, requires, in majority Of cases.
but a few minutes. Therefore, it is
advised that all figures and data be
assembled pending receipt of blanks
by taxpayers. When released, blanks
will be sent to taxpayers and also
may be obtained at the Office of Col.
lector John R. Towles at Phoenix,
Arizona.
Forms 1899 and 1895 used for max
ing information returns, are now
available at Offices Of collectors of
internal revenue. Such returns are
required of persons Sin whatever cap
acity acting" who made to a single
person during the year 1925 a pay
ment of $4,000 or more. Such pay

FOUNDATIONS FOR
PROGRESS IN 1926

| Before the New Year grows old,
we may see some reversals of the up
| ward trend IL lew lines of busi-
ness activity, such as in new build
| ing, in the booming of residential
land values, or in the production of
motor vehicles. We may have wea-
ther conditions unfavorable for crops.
Nobody, of course, can definitely say
what 1926 has in store for us.
We do know, however, that the
year just past has been a period of
sane progress, with only here and
there any evidence of speculative
excesses of the kind that portend re-
dictionary movements. We know that
commodity prices in general are not
inflated. and that there is no great
Idisparity between the prices of differ
ent groups of commodities. We know
that inventories of materials and of
merchandise are, in general, low in
relation to our large volume of pro-
duction and trade.
We also know that the individual
business man now has a better un-
derstanding and control Of the vital
elements of management which serve
to consolidate his gains and to pro-
vide more effective adjustments to
changes in market conditions. Great
strides were made during 1925 toward
better and more enduring co-ordina-
tion of demand and supply in many
lines. Our organization of the sup
ply and distribution of loanable funds
by banks gives stability in the money
market. In short, we find the eco
nomic condition and position of the
United States at the beginning of
1926 well able to withstand any local
reactions-such as possible change
in the trend of land values in Flor
ida or in and around some of our
great cities-without any very SER
ious effects upon the business struc-
ture elsewhere in the country

Not only are we in strong position
with respect to the cold-fact elements
of business, but also we have made
notable progress in the psychologist
cal problem of smoothing out our .hu-
man relations in business. Men who
control capital see more clearly the
relation of full employment and fair
wages to sales. The worker under
stands better the relation of honest
effort in utilizing tools and equip
ment, to his wages. Both employe
and employer now sense the fact
that the interests of the company
and Of the men are essentially the
same, that I'VE can work better pull
ing together than pulling apart" as
the president of one great railroad
put it.
Furthermore, there is now more
teamwork among competitors. This
is one of the outstanding develop-
ments of the last quarter century.
1t takes form in associational activ-
tiles, and it thrives on the willing
ness of business men to contribute
facts concerning their individual bus
inesses for the common good of
their industry or line of business-to
the end that their industry or line
as whole shall have greater success
through rendering better service to
customers. Cooperative competition

A Word About
Comparisons

Some advertisers consider the
policy of inviting comparisons as
bad practice, on the theory that It
should not be suggested that any
one look elsewhere. Such an atti-
tude, we think, betokens a certain
lack of confidence in their own
values, a reluctance to have them
measured by concurrent oppor-
tunities. Inasmuch as we are
endeavoring to bring to public
attention what we sincerely con-
slider the genuine advantages of
dealing with us, we do not hesitate
to ask you to compare these values
with any similar merchandise
offered elsewhere. Look where
you will-we only ask the favor of
a visit here as well-it will be
more convincing than all that we
might say. We are sure that you
will find it to your advantage.

Discounts Are
Sometimes Confusing

A wag once said that a discount
reminded him of an overcoat, as
it had to be put on before it could
be taken off. We do not entirely
agree with his opinion, for in the
conduct of business discounts often
serve a legitimate purpose and fire.
quently result in distinct savings
to customers.
But they may be confusing, for
no matter how generous the dis
count may seem, it is of no advan-
tage to the purchaser unless it
brings the Net Cost lower than that
at which the article may be pur-
chased elsewhere.
To avoid confusion, we refrain
from any reference to discount
percentages, preferring to have you
compare and pass judgment on
these values by the simple and sure
method of considering only THE
NET COST IN DOLLARS THAT
YOU ARE ASKED TO PAY.
