Cleaning Spinach

First Of all, the task Of cleaning
spinach frightens many inexperi-
encer homemakers. This need not
BE- such q bugbear. When the
spinach comes from the store or
garden, cut off the roots and put
Il to soak In dishpanful of cold
water. Later 1t can be looked over
and washed In two or three more
waters. BY soaking, most Of the
3nd and dirt Is removed, which
makes the cleaning much easier.

Il Is strange that so many OF the

Here's A Farmer
Who Believes In
Living At Home

County School superintendent J..
J. Bugg clipped the following article
from the Sterling City (TeXaS(
News Record and passes it on thru
The Examiner:
Lee Hunt reports that his old SOW
has given birth to 27 pigs in two
litters during the last year-14 the
first litter and 13 at the second
litter.
Out of the 27 pigs, Mr.. Hunt says
lie has raised % with not a runt III
the bunch.
Now if these pigs were kept until
they were yearlings, they should
average 200 pounds each or more.
At the market price, they should
sell for at least 10 cents per pound
on the hoof, or $3.50, with the old
SOW left to raise more pigs.
Hunt is a fellow who puts a lot of
faith in the Cow, Sow and Hen. If
properly cared for, this combination
will surely keep a fellow off the re-
lief rolls. A SOW, like the one Hunc
has, combined with a flock of hens
and a few COWS, will keep the pro-
vel bial wolf so far away from the
door that the folks could never hear
him howl.
Here in Arizona we do not pre-
end to grow hogs but the Texas
tanners faith pinned to swine can
be tackled on our turkeys.

in South Coolidge Fad ginned 500
bales of Pima cotton and 6,751 bales

bales.
Several days ago a newspaper
item from Yuma boasted that the
Yuma Valley so far this year had
produced eleven thousand bales Of
cotton The present figures on the
cotton crop in the Casa Grarde
Valley show that the Yuma Valleys
crop is a mere handful when COM
pared with the former.
And bear this H. mind, the Casa
Grande Valley lies entirely in Pinal
County, and that probably two-thirds
of the Casa Grande Valley cotton
crop grown in the Coolidge section.
The above facts, which as yet are
not the whole story about the Casa
Grande Valleys 1896 cotton crops,
viii impress capital, and the sky
seems to be the limit for industrial
and commercial advancement in
Coolidge at no distant day. The Ex-
aminer has been informed by
sources that can be relied upon that
several companies with large capi-
tai resources now have an eye on
Coolidge, and some Of them are eX-
pected to locate here in the very
near future.

years.
The Coolidge examiner., 1936-12-31

The above figures are based ex
clusively upon the short staple cot
ton, and when if is taken into con
sideration that the Pima variety OF
cotton brings a much higher price
than the short staple cotton com
mands, and that those who pick the
Pima are paid about double for pick
ing it, the above figures are really
less than the actual figures would
total if the computations had been
made separately on the short and
long staple cotton.
These facts were gathered, yester
day by The Coolidge Examiner
visiting gins and interviewing the
ginners.
While the approximate total is
not absolutely correct, it is so neal
it that the estimate IF thirty thous
