The people seemed so eager to
hear the Gospel Story that l longed
to be able to speak to them in
their own language, which l began
to do long before the first year was
over. The people are very poor,
for the most part, living in small
mud huts with only one door in
room, and often there is only one
room in which to cook and eat, no
chimney but the smoke goes all
over the room. Furniture usually
consists of a few crude home made
cots, several earthen pots for cook
ing and water, a brass plate or two,
one or two brass cups, cook spoons

real mail train, too, the fastest
kind of train in India, but it does
not look much like an American
train. 1t has first, second and third

not to defile it. Fruit, sweets, food
fit for both Hindus and Mohamme-

Railroads Purchase
Much Material

The railroads in 1897 bought
materials and supplies or fuel in
33 cities and towns located in IS
of the IA counties of Arizona. This
fact and the nationwide spread of
railway purchases was revealed in
series of exhibits which j. j.
Pelley, President of the Associa-
ton of American Railroads, recent
ly presented to the special Senate
Committee now investigating Un-
employment and Relief.
For the nation as whole, these
exhibits showed that last year pur-
chases of materials, supplies and
fuel amounting to total of $500
100000 were made by the railrods
in 1874 cities and towns located
in 2.637 counties of a total of B.
O72 counties in the 48 states of the
nation. These purchases included
approximately 10000 different items
and thus affected industry and ag-
riculture everywhere.
In 1929 and 1880 railway purchases
of materials, supplies and fuel
averaged $1,184,000,000 annually.
In the five years from 1882 to 1888
this yearly average dropped to
S559.S19,800. In 1886, railway pur-
chases of materials, supplies and
fuel increased to $S03, ,421 900 En-
couraging traffic volume in the first
half of 1887 resulted in a further
increase in railway purchases Oh
materials, supplies and fuel, the
total for the year amounting to ap-
proximately s9O0,OOO,000 The sub
sequent sharp decline in traffic
volume and revenues, especially in
the fourth quarter of the year, has
resulted in a necessary and drastic
reduction in railway purchases.
Mr.. Pelley, in presenting these
exhibits to the Senate Committee,
pointed out that increased revenues
and a return of normal traffic would
bring about a resumption of rail
road buying in large volume which,
in turn, would stimulate industrial
activity throughout the nation and
the unemployment of thousands OF
workers. To build one freight car,
he said, requires materials from
81 different states and provides,
1887 man-hours of employment
approximately a years work for one
man. To build one locomotive, he
added, provides so men with full
time work for one year, and re-
quires materials drawn from more
than thirty states.

A school teacher once asked Art
Ivaner to define a vaccum-he
l15ked puzzled for a moment, slut
tered and spewed for a while and
answered, well, l have it in my
h, Il but l can't express it." We
overheard two high school girls
talking the other day-one of them
said, when the Prof. asked me to
define electricity, l was simply
shocked"
Now, this is a serious article and
these two examples are not cited
for the mere purpose of being fun
ny. One of the greatest handicaps
any utility industry has been un-
der, from the beginning, grows out
q the fact that it deals in intangi-
hles. Ask any customer, preferably
one that has used electric service
for many years, What is a kilo-
vatt?" Notice the attempts to sup
press a stammer, watch the wrin-
kles in his forehead, but do not
laugh as his Adams apple races

The officers and employees OF
tho Arizona Edison Co., for a long
time, have realized the desirability
of simplifying the kilowatt hour,
the unit of electric service, to a
point where any customer or school
child can understand it. For this
purpose and toward this and the
Arizona Edison Company, Inc, has
adopted and employed Reddy Kilo-
watt.

as a servant and reminds the Gus
toner, "You don't buy kilowatts,
you hire Reddy Kilowstt to do your
work"
Reddy is striking character who
will attract Immediate attention.

Rules For 1888
Cotton Production

Details of the Agricultural Ad-
iustment Act of 1888 as it applies
to Arizona were forwarded to the
agricultural extension service by
F, George E. Farrell, director of the
Western Division. The Act was
signed by President Rooselevt on
February Is.
The soil and range conservation
programs as carried on in 1896 and
1897 will be continued in 1888. The
1888 range program was announced
last October. The 1888 Agricultural
program for farms has been de-
layed awaiting the final provisions
of new legislation.
To participate in the agricultural
conservation program each farmer
must not plant larger acreage OF
cotton than this quota. County cot
ton quotas are for paintings of short
staple cotton only. Pima cotton un-
der the farm act is classified with
other soil depicting crops such aa
wheat and grain sorghums. A farm
er can plant his quota of short
staple cotton and the Remaining
acreage in his soil depicting goal
may be planted to Pima cotton.
! However, to secure benefits under
the agricultural conservation pro-
: gram the total soil depicting goal
| (number Of acres of all soil depict
| ing crops) must not be exceeded
by paintings of short staple plus
Pima cotton.
The cotton goal for Arizona farms
which have planted cotton during
one or more of the three years 1885,
1886, and 1887 is 1S6,627 acres. This
acreage has been apportioned to
counties on the basic of go per
cent of the acreage planted to short
staple cotton in 1887 plus the acre
ageg diverted under the 1897 agri-
cultural conservation program. The
quotas for the counties in Arizona
are: Maricopa, 1880 acres; Pinal
39,2S0 acres; Yuma, 1880 acres;
Graham, 1920 acres; Greenlee,
954; Pima, 1898; and Santa Cruz,
4SO.
A total of 2.2O3 acres in addition
to the allotment to the counties
has been allowed to the state to ap-
portion to growers planting cotton
in 1888 who did not plant cotton
during the previous three years.
County committees will distribute
the quotes for their county. Each
farms allotment will be uniform
percentage of the crop acres on
the farm. However, a farms quota
cannot be greater than the largest
acreage planted plus diverted un.
der the triple A program in any
one of the three years 1885, 1896
and 1897, and it will be raised to
five acres for any farm on which
The largest acreage planted plus
diverted in any of the past three
years was less than five. The term
arop acres does not include the &C.
reage devoted to orchards or to
wheat for which special provisions
are set up.
If a farmer overplants his cot
ton goal no cotton price adjustment
payment will be made on the cotton
produced in 1897 and no payments
will be made under the 1888 agri-
cultural conservation program.
The new farm bill provided bene-
fits for farmers for participating in
the agricultural conservation pro-
gram and in addition provides that
penalties may be levied against
farmers who adopt practices which
tend to defeat this voluntary pro-
gram. The penalty provided for ex-
ceeding cotton goals is two cents
Ter pound on all cotton produced
on the excess acreage planted.

SMITH MURDER JURY STILL OUT
 AFTER 4S HOURS
Chance for Agreement Ap- pears More Remote
 as Time Goes On

At 2:30 o'clocK Jnis afternoon, the jury in the Forrest V. Smith murder case had been out 48 hours and at 3 o'clock this afternoon had still not reported. Indications were that they were deadlocked but the jury had made no report or requests to the court up to early this afternoon. Countless rumors were afloat of how the jury stood on a verdict and as time went on the general sentiment expressed was that jury would not agree, although it was pure specu- lation.
 One of five verdicts can be brought in by the jurors, who have been under lock and key now for two days, according to the instructions of the court. They can convict Smith of first degree murder for the killing of Thomas Ceiling, the penalty for which is death by hanging. They can return a verdict of first degree mur- der with the qualification without capital punishment" Other possible verdicts are second degree murder. manslaughter or acquittal.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9-Anyone looking for the New Anglo can trade treaty to draw a throttling cordon around the neck of German trade likely will be disappointed.
 Trade experts point out that Ger man exports to this country are largely good in which Germany specializes Two of the largest claSsi- fications are chemicals, of which this country's importations are ex- tenSive, and cameras and lenses. The boom in the German export of cameras to this country has been one of the outstanding trade devel- opments in some time.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, Dec. 9-From a death cell in San Quen- tin Prison, came a letter from Out law Ed Davis, claiming he and four other desperadoes staged the $ll000 bank robbery in Clinton for which Walter Philpot, 55, is serving 25- year sentence.
 Davis says the other four in the bank robbery are Harvey Bailey, serving life at Alcatraz for the Charles F. Urschel Kidnapping: Big Bob Brady, notorious desperado, and Wilbur Underhill and Jim Clark.
 Davis wrote that Philpot was working on a farm at the time of the robbery. Officers are reported coming to the defense of the con- victed man in view of the letter from Davis.
 Philpot protested his innocense at his trial
