Thirteen Million

Another milestone in industry was
reached Wednesday, when the -
millionth Chevrolet rolled off the
assembly line in the Flint plant Of
the Chevrolet Division. General

In spite of interrupted product On
Chevrolet's 18th millionth car r 2
duced in a period of just two days
more than IL months, the second
shortest million unit in the comp
any's history. Officials stated that
the demand for the 1887 models has
exceeded anything heretofore
known. and that, but for the ire

Egg Producers
To Be Benefited

Purchasing surplus eggs during
the summer and fall of 1897 by the
Federal Surplus Commodities Corp
oration will benefit Arizona poultry
men by maintaining market prices,
it was said by Harry Embleton,
head of the University of Arizona
poultry department.
Three years ago a direct appro-
priation was made to Arizona for
the purchase of surplus eggs. Since
that time buying of surplus supplies
has been done in the larger mar
kets. Embleton states. Eggs pur-
chased through this program are
distributed to families on relief.
Surplus egg purchases since The
beginning Of the year have totaled
29O .944 cases, representing 8,72S,-
32O dozens. Although consumer
purchasing power this year has
averaged well over that of 1886, the
price received by farmers for eggs
in May and June was lower than
that prevailing in the same months
of 1896. At the same time, and be-
cause of the greatly curtailed grain
crops resulting from the 1926
drought, feed prices have been con-
siderably higher than last year.
The cost of feed to the eggs pro-
ducer is the most important single
item in his cost of production since
it represents more than so per cent
of the total cost of producing eggs.
The feed-egg ration, which i the
number of dozen eggs required TO
purchase 100 pounds of feed, is
therefore the best available measure
of the relationship between egg ana
feed prices. During 1897 the feed
egg ratio increased steadily until
in May it reached all-time high,
11.31. compared with 5.S4 and 6.5o
in the same period of 1886 and 1895,
respectively, and with SAB, the
average of the 10-year period, 1925

MY ARIZONA BEDROOM
(By J. William Lloyd

Oh. my Arizona bedroom
Is beneath the Milky Way,
And the moon is in the ceiling
And the star that tells of day;
And the mountains lift the corners
And the desert lays the floor
OF my Arizona bedroom
That is big as all outdoor.
Oh. my Arizona bedroom
Is ventilated right;
Every wind that's under Heaven
Comes to me with blithe good
night;
And of ozone one drink more
Comes to me with touch of ble2s-
ing
In my Arizona bedroom
Which is large as all outdoor.
Oh. my Arizona bedroom
1t sometimes seems to me
Is aloft in middle Heaven
With each star an argosy;
And the tide that turns at midnight
Drifts us down to morning S
shore
Floats us. stars, and bed, and bed
stead
On the ocean of outdoor.

Frigidaire Exhibit
At Davis Store

A solid seventy-five pound ice
cube that does not melt is one Of
the feature attractions AT the
especial refrigeration exhibit being
conducted at Davis Hardwarc e
Furniture, authorized dealers for
Frigidaire According to d. S.
Davis, manager of the firm, this
ice, which is real genuine ice. has
been on exhibit for more than >
days and it is planned to keep il
on display the remainder OF The
summer. During all that time il
will not melt, no matter how warm
the weather becomes.
"Of course this does sound little
like perpetual motion" said Mr..
Davis but after all there is nothing
so very mysterious about the whole
affair. We froze this ice as a part
of a demonstration in which we
prove that anyone actually can
make ice more cheaply with q
Frigidaire than he can buy the same
amount of ice.
when people think ice in con
nection with an electric refrigerat
or. they think of ice cubes frozen
in a tray for table use. But Frigi-
daire can make a great deal more
ice than just that represented by
the ice cubes, provided, of course,
anyone would ever want so muth
refrigeration in the form OF Ice.
which is not probable But just tc
demonstrate what can be done, We
made this 75-pound cake OF ice by
immersing the super freezer OF the
Frigidaire in seventy-five pound o.
water. The reason it cannot melt Is
that the Frigidaire super freez 'f
always is much colder than - de-
grees. which is the melting point OF
ice. OF course, if we shut off the
Frieidaire. this cake of ice wouia
then melt like any other piece Of
ice.
Most people understand that Fri
cidaires are not kept cold by the
ice they make But many OF them
do think that somehow ice may be
a cheaper method of providing re-
frigeration. The purpose OF our
special exhibit is to show that, az
our present electric rates, ice couid
he made more cheaply with FIJI
pidaire than the cost Of purchase
outside. But refrigeration delivered
direct without first making ice, is
even far more economical

SOME OLD CLUB RULES

The custom among luncheon clubs of
the United States, whereby club is sup
posed to limit its membership to only one
of each business or profession, recalls a
similar rule of the famous Spectator Club,
organized by Addison, the English essay
list, more than two centuries ago.
In that day the rule was stated thus:
None shall be admitted into the club that
is in the same trade with any member in
it,
Some other rules of the Spectator
Club, however find no counterpart among
the modern regulations governing the Ro-
tary, Kiwanis and similar organizations,
but they are nevertheless interesting, the
following being examples:
IF any member swears or curses, his
neighbor may give him a kick upon the
shins
If any member tells stories in the
club that are not true, he shall forfeit for
every third lie half penny
IF any member brings his wife into
the club, he shall pay for whatever she
drinks or smokes
IF any members wife comes to fetch
him from the club, she shall speak to him
outside the door,
The last rule was considered quite
necessary in day when there were no
telephones, and may have enabled a
timorous husband to escape by the back
door while faithful steward assured his
wife that he was not at the club.

GOT HOT" ON SLOTS
(Tampa Tribune)

A Miami collector only II, is in Jail. He
stole $25 OF his collections to play the slot
chimes
81 got hot the slot machines, and couldn't
stop" he said
He lost his own money, then poured the cOip
of his employer into the slots. Now he is con.

Weak, you say? OF course. The ''one-armed
bandit didn't hold up this boy, force him to give
it his money and his employers money. But the
evil of the slot machine is its convenience. 1t

pecially to youth-and, worst of ALL it is placed

The case of the Miami boy should be con-

SPEED POSSIBILITIES


Certain aviation engineers predict
that airplanes may eventually attain a
speed of 1000 miles an hour; also that
nonstop flights around the world will be
made.
AS the apparent movement of the sun,
due to the earth's rotation, is less than L.
900 miles an hour in ATTITUDES above and
below the equator such a speed would
present some interesting collateral expert
ences.
For example: Travelling west, one
might circle the globe in daylight, as the
plane would keep pace with the sun.
Travelling east, the plane would meet the
sun twice, SO that it would apparently ex.
perience two days in "a hours.
Strangest of all, if the plane were fly
ing somewhat faster than the visible move
ment of the sun, it might start out shortly
after sunset and fly west to overtakc the
sun, which would appear to rise in the
west. Continuing it's flight, It would
finally leave the sun SO far behind that it
would appear to set in the east
A watch carried under either of these
conditions might tell how long the plane
had been in the air, but would be Of little
use in determining the time of day at any
given point during the flight.
