gross income in comparison with
194O as reported by the U. S. Bu-
reau of Census, Santa Cruz County
farm families last year produced
crops and livestock with the record
value of more than $1,O19O0O.
This huge increase in farm reve-
nue.. has already created heavy de-
mand for general farm improve
ments and for home remodeling, ac-
cording to study released by the
Tile Council of America.
Increased sales of industrial pro-
ducts mean in turn a new level OF
prosperity for every local business
man and worker" said D. P. ForSt
chairman of the Councils Residen-
tial Construction Committee.
Forst also pointed out that farm
ers in the county today have 80
more tractors than in 1910, accord
ing to the Bureau of Census, and
that the number of trucks on farms
has likewise increased substantially
"These facts not only indicate the
Importance of the farm market but
also make it one which no business
man or manufacturer can afford to
overlook" he said.

Justices Of Peace,
Constables, Get
A Year Terms

The luckiest public officials in
Arizona today are constables and
justices of the peace. They were
elected to four-year terms!
When the legislature was passing
the constitutional amendments to
give four-year terms to state and
county officials, they passed a bill
only an amendment to the statute
was needed-giving the ups and
constables four-year terms.
Governor Osborn signed it and
the law is effective when those
elected last Tuesday take office in
January. If the measure had been
submitted to the people, it likely
would have been defeated with the
other two.
Note-The constable and justice
of the peace measure, incidentally,
was passed by accident The legis-
lature, irked at persistent lobbying
for the measure, were going to kill
it. But it landed on the senate cal
endar and was on the governors S
desk in the rush to pass bills an
hour before the session adjourned.
(Phoenix Gazette)
Elected as justices of the peace
in Santa Cruz County were Charles
E. Hardy, Nogales; and Oliver j.
Rothrock, Patagonia. Constables-
elect are Edward Bayze, Jr., No
