BOSTON WOOL MARKET

Business in wool this week was
slow, on account of holidays and in
ventory taking by mills. For the
week preceding Christmas, however,
moderate orders were received, and
conditions for the time of year were
considered better than the average.
Territory woods and other fine grades
continued to be inquired about, with
business being booked for delivery
after the first of the year. With
stocks rapidly dwindling, prices were
firm, and some instances were re-
ported Of dealers declining to sell at
any concession. The opinion continues
quite general that business, for the
first few months of the coming year,
is to be good, and no reductions in
prices are expected in the near fu-
ture. Large shipments of foreign
woods are arriving, some of which
was sold to arrive.

We LOUe You,
Flagstaff

o Q o o
Sing a song of Flagstaff, and 1926,
The weather mans been showing US
All his wintry tricks,
'Tis time to be remembered by US
all.
The water pipes are busted
Meath lavatory and sink;
The bathroom floors converted
Into a skating rink,
These days will be easy to recall.
The water tank is doing the Charles
ton now,
To watch it makes one feel creepy
somehow.
But little things like that
Don't worry us at all.
IF you're looking for a city
Where winter sports are fine;
Where skiing, coasting, skating,
Are all but divine
Where snow and ice are with sunshine
combined
Make Flagstaff a call.
We love you dear Flagstaff
When you're in your winter dress.
We love you in summer
When you're at your best.
If you're froze or if you amt,
You're the best place of all.

ARE AFTER RESERVATION
GAME LAW VIOLATORS

George See, deputy state game
warden, and r. B. Corbett, manager
Of the G. 0. Bar Cattle company
started last week in Dodge
car with pack outfit along the Coco
nino basin in search of Indians and
others who have been killing deer,
antelope and cattle. George takes
his job seriously and feels keenly the
loss of game from the fine herds
ranging adjacent to the reservation.
The lamentable feature of it is that
these killings are to obtain the hides
for mocassins, and that the carcases
are left without the meat being even
touched After reaching the end of
the road the men will travel with
packs in search of offenders against
the game laws and attempt to appre
hend those killing beef.
