CAN LEGISLATION MAKE A
FARMER?
4 A .....r.,.. C.,A41-.,,,.... l., -,

So many political crimes have been
perpetrated in the name of the farm
er, that it is wonder farm conditions
are as good as they are. Right now
the country is witnessing a political
battle which is advertised as in the
interest. Of the farmer. Following are
sample headlines from the daily press:
BIG FIGHT BREWS ON FARM RE-
LIEF. CORN BELT LOBBY OPENS
STRONG ATTACK. COMPROMISE
PLAN RAILS. EAST AGAINST
WEST AND CLASH COMING. BIT
TERNESS IN CORN BELT BECOM-
ING ACUTE. POLITICAL UPSET

TURAL SECTION OF COUNTRY.
All Of this comment is inflamma-
tory. 1t emanates from Washington
and is for the purpose of furthering
class legislation and advancing the
interests of different politicians or
political groups.
Secretary of the Treasury Mellon
is noted for his clear reasoning on
matters affecting the public interest.
He advocated lower surtaxes as q
means of encouraging business and
tax revenues. lie was attacked most
viciously for his position. but when
The Coconino sun., 1926-07-30

his suggestions were carried out, they
were more than justified and the
whole nation has benefited. In dis
cussing so-called farm relief meas
ures, he shows that farming differs
from most industries in that its out
put largely fixes the price, whereas
in manufacturing, the price largely
controls the output.
Mr. Mellon says that government
can be of most use to the farmer IN
working out the best methods of dis
tributing and marketing crops. He
states that artificial plans to raise
the farmer by his own boot straps
disregard economic law. Inability of
many European countries to buy our
surplus crops, is largely responsible
for American farm conditions, and
this situation cannot be changed by
price fixing measures established at
the expense of the American con-
Sumer.
Mr.. Melons advice is sound, al
though it may not be popular. The
farmers position will be improved
just as rapidly as he increases his
understanding Of scientific farming,
marketing and distribution of his
products. All the government legis-
laticn in the world and all the politi-
cal promises that can be made will
not make a successful farmer, any
more than they will make a success

ling steers found a ready outlet at
steady prices, but the general fat cat
tie trade had heavy tone at a 10 to
Is cent decline. Chicago reported a
heavy run of corn fat steers at sharp
ly lower prices and more eastern
markets are having harder time to
find an outlet than western markets.
Here some good to choice yearlings
sold at S975 to s$10.15. Medium
weight steers sold up to 1915 and
heavy weight steers up to $9.65. The
bulk of the fed steers brought $8.25
to $3.50. Cake and meal fed steers
brought $725 to $3.50 and straight
grass fat steers sold at $3.50 to S7.75.
Short fed heifers and grass fat cows
were about steady Full fed heifers
were scarce at firm prices. Veal
calves declined so cents, best light
weights selling up to $1,000.
Stockers and Feeders
With larger receipts, volume of
trade in stockers and feeders in
creased but the dullness in fat cattle
held prices down. Choice light weight
stockers remained scarce.
Sheep and Lambs
Trade in sheep and lambs opened
slowly, but became active when Is
to 25 cent decline was established.
Native lambs sold at S13 to $14;
western lambs $14 to S14.25; year
lings $3.50 to $1,000; wethers SIPS
to $3.50 and ewes $3.50 to $3.50

ARIZONA

o, land of purple mountain peaks
And sweetly smiling plains,
Where majestic nature speaks
And in grandeur reigns!
To thee my heart in rapture springs
At mention of thy name;
And from its depth in joy it sings
Your everlasting fame.
Not more heroic blood was shed
In history's lore or tales
Than that of Arizona's dead,
Who blazoned forth her trails.
The honored names Of those who
wrought
An empire from decay,
By the battles that they fought
Live in our hearts today.
No blazing sun or desert sands
Nor frozen SHOWS mid pines,
Deferred the stockman's quest for
lands,
Nor prospector's search for mines.
The valleys peaceful mead and dale,
The smelter's smoking stacks
We're won by men who did not quail
Before the foeman's axe.
Today the laughing waters flow
From mountain side and glade,
Tinting valleys far below
To an emerald shade;
The rancher reaps his golden grain,
The miner melts his ore,
While stock-bells sound on hill and
plain,
And peace reigns evermore.

REPORT OF WORKS.
REPLY TO "HANGINGS"
RECEIVED IN ARIZONA

Secretary Hubert Work of the in
terror department at last has been
heard from concerning his hangings
in effigy by unidentified individuals
claiming to be representatives of an
irrigation destrict which recently was
adjudged unable to finance itself.
Carl Hayden, Arizona's congress
man, has returned from Washington
with story Meeting the secretary,
he inquired, "How does it feel to be
hanged in effigy? ?"
DR.. Works reply was in the shape
of an anecdote.
con a northern fox farm, he said,
"a feminine tourist asked, How many
times a year do you skin the foxes 2
Only three times year, mum. If
we skin EN- any oftener they're apt
to get peevish,' was the reply"
The Work "hangings" already have
reached three. 1t is known that they
have been under official investiga-
ton by at least one representative OF
the interior department.

GEORGE N. BATY SEEKS
co. TREASURER OFFICE

George N, Baty announces III tins
issue that he will be a candidate for
the nomination on the republican
ticket at the September primaries for
the office of county treasurer.
Mr.. Baty is a pioneer resident of
Flagstaff having spent thirty three
years of his life here. He raised his
family in Flagstaff and has always
been a consistent, conscientious build
er and booster for Coconino county
since the day he first landed here.
He has constructed many of Flag
staff's residences and has ever been
a progressive citizen.
While Mr.. Baty prides himself on
the fact that he has always made his
living with his hands he has fully
demonstrated the fact that he has
made good use of his head in direct
ing his hands. His life has been a
busv energetic one which has covered
several fields Of endeavor including
that of mine superintendent and mine
operator.
In seeking the office Of county
treasurer, Mr. Baty's friends believe

port.
Neither the honesty, integrity nor
ability of Mr.. Baty has ever been

residence in Coconino county.
Mr.. Baty does not claim to be

AGED PRESCOTT MAN
COMMITS SUICIDE

A. f. Fitch, about 65 years of age
and a sufferer with asthma, was
found dead in his bed at Prescott at
one o'clock Tuesday afternoon, the
victim of what is believed to be a
self-inflicted wound. The deceased,
who is said to have lived in Prescott
for several months and in the state
about two years, was found by a
neighbor, who noticed light burn
ing in the apartment in the afternoon
and Investigated. The body with the
top Of the head shattered, was lying
on the bed, beside it being the 12-
gauge shotgun, loaded with No. four
buck shot, with which he had killed
himself. It was evident, according
to the coroner, Judge Gordon Clark,
that Fitch had placed the muzzle of
the gun in his mouth and then had
pulled the trigger with the handle of
a fly swatter which was beside him.
The shot had blown a hole in the
top of his head and death must have
been instantaneous, physicians said.
The deceased is said by neighbors
at the apartments to have been de-
spondent He was unemployed and
nothing had heen learned of his fam
lily.

An oasis fair
Giving life to travel-worn feet.
The sand in dunes
And the winds sad tunes,
Cool nights, and the days of heat.
The buildings red
Of which It's said
Their beauty is not excelled.
The streets so wide
BY the streamlet's side,
The trees that will never be felled.
The finest town
In the country roun'
And | love it with all my soul.
An oasis fair
In the desert bare
Where the waves of the sand dunes

The Navajo
And the whirlwind's tow,
The cattle that roam the plains.
The huts of earth,
The water dearth
In the land where it seldom rains
The suns bright rays
And the stars at night

Are the signs OF God
In the desert broad
The home of the mountains grand.
