DAILY HARNESS RACES
AT STATE FAIR NOV. 7-12


Three harness races daily, nine
heats, are on the program for the
first five days of the Arizona state
fair to be held at Phoenix November
Z to II.
Many of the fastest horses on the
Pacific coast are entered in these
races and many of the leading stables
are now on the grounds giving their
horses their final training for the big
fair.
Two important stakes are to be de-
cided. These are known as the Fred
II. Bixby stakes. One is for free-for
all trotters and the other for free-for-
all PAGERS.
Fred H. Bixby, for whom these
stakes are named, has donated $500 to
be added to the racing budget and
$3.50 of this amount has been added
to the $500 purse for trotters and the
other $3.50 to $500 purse for PAGERS.
All other races are for $500 purses,
with entry fees added which make
nice purses. Ten per cent of the purse
is set aside for the winner and thirty
per cent of the purse is divided each
heat for three heats, the winning horse
receiving fifty per cent; second horse,
twenty-five per cent; third horse, fif-
teen per cent; and the fourth horse,
ten per cent.
This gives great many owners a
share of the money and will repay
them for their long shipments to this
track The horses are entered from
California, Oregon, Washington and
Colorado, and are the fastest of the
horses that took part in the races in
those states this season.
Secretary J. P. Dillon has the race
track in wonderful condition and says
it will be as good as when the great
trotter, Mr.. McElwyn, broke the
worlds record for five-year old trot-
ters in 1926, trotting in 1891, and
equalled the worlds four-year-old rec
ord, trotting in 1:591a in December of
1925.
This track is known as one of the
fastest mile tracks in the United
States, and with the class of horses
entered in the races, the time should
be the fastest of any of the western
fairs circuit this season, although
George M. paced at Stockton in 1:0412
in race and Gridley Dillon trotted
the same track in 2:0615. These are
the Pacific coast records for this sea-
son.

ent demand and indications are that
the market will remain in a firm po-
sition. Most Of the Gamer cows
brought S5 to S5.25 and cutters S5.40
to $5.75 or as high as any time this
year. Other classes of killing cattle
were fully steady Fed heifers were
scarce. Light weight veal calves were
steady, hut heavy calves were quoted
weak.
Stockers and Feeders
With liberal supplies available trade
in stockers and feeders continued to
show large volume at firm prices.
Last week shipments TO the country
were the largest of the season. Indi-
cations are that demand will remain
large.
Hogs
Hog prices were down 10 to Is
cents, spots on light lights off as
much as 25 cents. However the light
er weights were only half fat and
carried too much weight to attract
feeders. There was ready demand
for kinds above 165 pounds that were
fat. More eastern markets showed a
sharp decline, and packers are hold
ing d0WH lnelI olueIS oWLlS " VIC
unusually warm weather. The ,170 to
$50 pound hogs sold at $10.85 to
S11.15; $50 to $50 pounds $1,000 to
$11; 130 to 164 pounds 1915 to $10.50;
packing sows SO to $3.50 and stock
hogs and pigs $40 to $10.50.
Sheep and Lambs
Lambs were 10 to Is cents higher
and sheep were generally steady with
trade active. Most of the offerings,
range lambs, sold at $3.50 to $1365
and native lambs S12 to S13. Feed
ing lambs brought $12 to $13. Fat
yearlings are quoted at So to $40;
wethers $7.25 to So, and ewes $3.50 to
S5:75.

previous notice given by publica-
tion in newspaper of the county,
and convey to the highest bidder
for cash any property, real or
personal, belonging to the coun-
ty, paying the proceeds into the
county treasury for the use of
the county"
In order that the county Of Coco
nino may be relieved from all further
expenditures either for construction
or maintenance Of the approach road
from the National Old Trails highway
to the south boundary Of the Grand
Canyon national park, we, as its Board
Of Supervisors, hereby agree to take
all steps necessary to sell the Bright
Angel toll road and trail to the
United States, Immediately upon re-
ceipt Of assurances from you that the
federal government is ready and will
ing to commence the construction of
said approach road and will convey all
of the county's right, title and inter-
est therein TO the United States upon
being advised by you that funds are
available and viii be used for that
purpose. 1t is our understanding that
no citizen Of Coconino county will lose
any Of his civil rights or political
privileges by reason cf the sale of said
trail to the United States.
You will observe by the above quo
tation from the revised statutes of
Arizona that the Board of Supervisors
cannot dispose Of any county property
except at public auction Coconino
county will cease to obtain revenue
from the Bright Angel toll road and
trail upon the transfer of title of the
same to the United States, but the
county will be relieved of the neces-
sity of making expenditures for the
maintenance of the existing approach
road. We, therefore, urge that in
making bid for the purchase of the
toll road and trail the secretary of
the interior agree, as part of the
consideration, to assume all the cost
of maintaining an approach road to
the Grand Canyon national park until
such time as the new approach road
is completed.
We fully realize that the approach
road which you are now authorized to
construct will be designed primarily
to serve national rather than local
needs. We understand that after the
expenditure of over $4,000 upon de-
tailed survey, the bureau of public
roads has definitely located this ap-
proach road where it will best provide
for the interests Of the general pub
lie. This is to advise you that we
have no objection to this location Of
the approach road, which is desig-
mated as survey number 2019, and be-
gins at the south entrance to the
Grand Canyon national park and ex-
tends in a southerly direction to the
National Old Trails highway.
Yours very respectfully,
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS.
The Coconino sun., 1927-10-28
Flagstaff. Arizona.


October II, 1921.
The Honorable,
The Secretary of the interior,
Washington, D. G.
Sir:
It is the sincere desire of the Board
cooperate with the national park serv-
ice of your department in bringing
about the complete development of the
Grand Canyon national park so that
its natural wonders may be made ac-
.cessible for the enjoyment of the peo-
pie of the United States, and other
parts Of the world.
The interior department appropria-
tion act approved June 5, 1924, pro-
vides that 'the secretary Of the in
terror is authorized to construct an
approach road from the National Old
Trails highway TO the south boundary
of said park" We are convinced that
the construction of this approach road
by the interior department will do
more to carry out the purposes for
which the Grand Canyon national park
was created than any other develop
ment which can be contemplated.
In the past Coconino county has
borne the entire expense of construct
ing the roads used by those VINO travel
by automobile to visit the Grand Can
yon national park. The county has
not been and is not now able to finance
the building of improved roads suit
able to the large volume of traffic,
with the result that many thousands
of people from all parts of the United
States have been prevented from visit
ing the Grand Canyon. The principal
reason why the county cannot provide
funds for this purpose is that over SC
per cent of its area is in federal own
ership and consequently non-taXable
Coconino county owns the Bright
Angel toll road and trail within the
boundaries Of the Grand Canyon ma
tional park, its ownership being recog-
nized IN the act to establish the park
The county is now receiving an aver
age annual net income Of approxl-
mately $4,000 from tolls collected for
the passage Of mounted tourists. This
sum and more has been expended each
year in the maintenance of the exist
ing approach roads to the Grand
Canyon national park.
The act Of February 26, 1919, to es-
tablish the Grand Canyon national
park provides that "the secretary of
the interior is hereby authorized to
negotiate with said county of Coconino
for the purchase Of said Bright Angel
toll road and trail and all rights
therein Section 2418 Of the revised
statutes Of Arizona provides that
county boards Of supervisors shall
have authority to:

Kansas City Stock Yards,
October 81, 1927.

October %, 1927.
Prices for fat cattle held steady.
Short fed steers at $13.75 to $14.75
made up the best offerings here and
choice to prime kinds would have sold
as high as last week, when the years
top for yearlings at $16.25 and $3.50
for heavy steers was established. De-
mand for stockers and feeders was
active at strong prices. Hog prices
broke 10 to Is cents and the general
market is 25 to 90 cents below last
weeks best time. The lighter weights
have declined more than the heavies.
Lamb prices were 20 to Is cents high
er and in active demand.
Receipts today were $4,000 cattle,
5000 hogs, and 1900 sheep, compared
with So 900 cattle, 5000 hogs and 49,
coo sheep a week ago, and $4,000 cat
tie, $500 hogs and $3.50 sheep year
ago.
Beef Cattle
In proportion to total receipts of
cattle, the supply of fat steers was
small and largely in the medium to
fairly good kinds. The better grades
of straight grass steers are getting
scarce, and there is a larger showing
in. short feds and those warmed up
from grass. These kinds are bring
ing $1,000 to S14. The common grass
ers sold as low as $3.50. Choice to
prime grain fat steers would have
brought $3.50 to $16.50, maybe better
had they been offered. Killers are

The Public Library

Treat as it is, the service of the
public library is limited to the i'm
mediate community in which it is sit
uated. Scattered and unrelated IL
braries dotted over the country are
poweless to reach out and extend
their influence to bookless areas.
Ninety-three per cent of the people
without public library service live in
the country or in small towns. For
many reasons these people have more
time for reading than city people.
They have less ready access to the
church, the lodge, the theater, and 9TH
ers recreational agencies.
Mud, snow, and cold weather often
keep sthem housed for days at time.
There are long rainy Sundays and
long winter evenings when the yearn-
ing for good book becomes acute.
One librarian tells of man who
travels forty miles on snow shoes in
the winter to get books Ito keep him
from going crazy with loneliness in
his isolated cabin"
And the boys and girls on the farml
Who knows how many a Mute IN
glorious Milton or silent potential
Franklin is living in spiritual starya-
tion through no fault other than the
fact that his home is in the country.
There is plan for library service
designed to meet the need of every
bookless community. But organized
effort is necessary to promote and
extend public library facilities and
only by organized effort can the ulti-
mate goal-free access to books for
everyone in the United States-be
realized.

The sidewalk from the town to the
mill has for a long time been in such
a dilapidated condition as to make 1T
dangerous for pedestrians to attempt
to walk over it, especially after dark,
and Sunday night church goers have
had to keep away from the school
house on account of the dangers at
tending Divine service.
This has been remedied now and
there is safe and comfortable walk
from Flagstaff to the school house
and thence to the mill. For this i'm
provelnent the people are indebted to
the Aver Lumber company, who sup
plieg the lumber; the merchants of
Flagstaff who donated the nails and

but not least, to the school boys, who
under direction of Mr.. Van Horn, did
all of the work.
