ELECTRICITY ON FARMS The San Carlos project should have a real Christmas present for present indications are that the rural electrification project will be completed by that Bids will be opened August 3 and, unless untime. difficulties should develop, the contract will forseen for completion in 120 days, which will mean provide that the job will be completed by the middle of December. Electrification of the San Carlos project is a dream which has been held by boosters of the district for many years and its realization will have an important influence in the attracting of future settlers into the valley. Electricity on the farm has been largely thought of in connection with its residential value, the conven-35-5-6 iences and comforts which it makes available for the farm homes.

However, the power will also be of great value from the production or business side of farming. The farmer has an opportunity to apply electricity to his farm operations in ways that will save him money and cut down losses. The combined factors of a home with modern conveniences and a farm operated at lower costs and with more efficiency will undoubtedly be a means of attracting many new agricultural settlers of the type that will play an important part in the development of the valley. PROGRESS OF AIR COOLING Another summer comes to Casa Grande with Casa Grandeans talking about the weather just as much as in previous years but they are doing just a little bit more about it this year. This fact can readily be seen on a drive through the city with a view of inspecting windows of homes and business houses.

The inspector will observe that there are just a few more windows equipped with window air coolers this year than last and, in many cases, a better type of cooler had replaced last year's model. A further investigation of the progress being made by air cooling will reveal that the development of the coolers have had a noticable effect upon this year's summer business in Casa Grande. True, there is still the exodus of summer vacationists headed for the coast cool spots of Arizona or to points east, but many of the vacationists are cutting their out-oftown vacations just a little shorter than in years before! cooling systems and it is very likely that if the investigator pried real deeply into other people's business, he would likely find same persons who have entirely abandoned their usual summers on the coast because they can find all the comfort they want right in their own homes. However, the influence which the coolers have, had on Casa Grande summer's business is not con-1 fined to the business developed by those who spend more time in Casa Grande. The air cooling industry itself is developing into quite a worthwhile factor in business progress.

There are several firms which are devoting a considerable portion of their activities the manufacture and sale of air coolers. Building material and hardware concerns are making many sales of material for the home made coolers. Appliance firms are reporting good business in motors and fans for the air cooling systems. If each summer sees a continuation of the progress during the past two or three, air cooling may eventually become one of the valley's leading industries, and may make Casa Grande not only an round business center but also an all year round sort. The directors of the San Carlos irrigation drainage district are to be congratulated upon their decision to build a new office building for the Casa Grande division of the district.

The expense of building inating such the a structure will be a wise investment, vide the San payment of rent for office, and will proCarlos district with Casa- Grande headtion quarters appropriate to the importance of the irrigaproject.

The hog market advanced to a new high mark for the year towards the close of June when California grain-fed butchers gold at $12.65 on the Los Angeles market. The cattle market is very active and strong to higher on the better grades of both grass cattle and grain-fed stock, while there is a very dull and weak undertone on the plainer grades. The market has been somewhat clogged up the past week or ten days with halffat and common cattle that were hardly of good enough quality to go into feed lots and are proving very difficult to move into usual retail meat channels. The lamb market also is on a strong basis, especially on the better grades. June witnessed the virtual end of the California "early lamb" movement and California packers are now using quite a good many fat lambs brought in from the intermountain country.

The. wool demand Has slowed down but a large proportion of the clip in the entire western area was contracted early in the season at very satisfactory prices, to growers. The general livestock situation appears to be in' very satisfactory, condition. Despite the widespread 'labor difficulties 'over the country, business conditions are very good. Probably there is 8 tendency to overestimate the importance of these labor difficulties.

P. Best indicating that the public is in buying mood and has money to spend. Railroad staitstics show tremendous gains in both carloadings and passenger traffic, with Class 1 railroads showing net earnings of around $17,000,000 for the first four months this year, against a loss of $30,000,000 for the same period, last year. Atuomobile sales continue to show gains over last year. Business generally in practidally all lines is in satisfactory condition.

The fact is that commodity prices in this country this country is in better condition to remain self-suficient VAS the case just prior to the war which broke out in 1914.

We do not have surplus materials on which prices are likely to crumble because of loss of export markets, for we have very little to export, particularly in commodities. The chances are that, in one way or another, our commodities will be sought by foreign countries in case of war. Our government has served notice that such exports must be made on a cash' on the barrelhead policy. We are shipping commodities Europe while those nations are preparing for war and that situation probably will help to sustain or possibly improve the general commodity price structure. et al: Cotton wood Mining Dist.

The state was on a cash basis with a surplus ranging between $1,500,000 and 000,000. Officials said they could not determine the actual amount left in the treasury until all claims have been posted in the auditor's office. Revenue derived from the increased sales tax collectiona, in addition to the payment of the Phelps Dodge corporation of its delinquent taxes.

placed the state on a cash basis. The outlook for. the new year is problematical in view of the legislative action diverting 60 per cent of the sales tax receipts to, the counties and the increased appropriations set up by the legislature to operate the state government, its institutions and comma schools during the new -fiscal year. The biennial budget adopted by the legislature up more than $9,000,000, not including the $25 per capita apportionment for the schools. Until the department of education determines the number of children who attended school during the past year, the amount needed from property taxes for schools will remain an estimate.

It has been estimated the common schools will need $2,125,000. That is based on an attendance of 85,000 children in grammar, and high schools. From that amount, also, will come the $200,000 set up by the legislature to operate the state department of education. Social security purposes may require a greater amount of money than originally estimated. The tax commission has jurisdiction under some laws to levy for a greatter amount of money than WAS propriated.

This is true in the case of old-age assistance. The legislature appropriated $900,000 for that purpose for the year ending June 30, 1938. It has been estimated that the pensions will require at least $100.000 more. The state tax commission in making the valuations on property for taxation purposes holds the key to Arizona's continued good financial condition. It is probable that valuations on the larger properties will be increased.

Authorities expect that a gen; eral trend upward in business conditions, placing more money in cir-1 culation, will bring about a greater payment of ad valorem taxes when the first half installments are due this fall. Likewise the business conditions will increase income taxes next spring. Joe Peggs state income tax director, announced the collections this year on last year's incomes had passed the 100.000 mark. AND HIS GANG By Sam Iger: POP I WANNA OH 1 NOTHING OUR TEACHER MAIN PURPOSE HERE: WHAT ARE WE ARE, FOR THE 'SER'OUS YOU A TRIVIAL TO HELP OTHERS THE OTHERS ASK SAYS THAT AS IT WE HAVE TEACHER FOR? i QUESTION WERE? COME INTO HERE 1S THIS WORLD RIGHT TO HELP MICKY 1 OTHERS 5 PORTS -MP CAN THEY Know Your Arizona Knowing How to "Take It" From time to time various writers have comunicated upon the manner in which President Rooseveltt, who nearly died in the late summer of 1921 from infantile paralysis and who has been handicapped in his lower extremities since, has been able to withstand the crushing strain of his office for more than four years with but little outward sign of physical weakening. His hair is a little thinner and his temples are a little more gray, but there is only six pounds difference in his weight now and when he entered the White House in March, 1933, six pounds to the better, perhaps, because he is that much lighter.

It is not every man who could have stood up so well physically, for there have been any number of them unhandicapped physically like' the present chief executive who have broken appreciably under the strain--and under a strain much lesg potent than that under which Mr. has been placed. Anybody who studies the "before and after" photographs of his predecessor cannot help but feel rather sympathetic with Herbert Hoover for the change in his appearance four years wrought. Since he left the White House, however, not having that strain to contend with, he has regained much of his former vigor. But F.

D. according 'to his private physician, Dr. Ross McIntyre, captain in the United States navy medical corps, is in almost perfect physical condition, and he ought to know because that Is his sole job -watching after the president's health. He is in accord with the common opinion of practically all of those who have made public comment on the state of Mr. Roosevelt's and that is this: He has the natural or the acquired ability of being able to relax.

This is the secret of being able to "take it." In all probability it is an acquired trait because he had led a vigorous life up to the time he was stricken with paralysis. That trait, no doubt, was born of the determination then made when he said, "Tl1 beat this thing." Swimming and fishing now are the president's means. of relaxation. He never allowa himself to reach that point of overwork that would tell upon him physically. Possibly he should not be given full credit for this either, because Dr.

McIntire often has to make him break away from his desk for his late afternoon swim. David Lawrence, political writer who knocks out such acid things about the president, WAS one of those who censured Mr. Roosevelt when he broke away from Washington this spring and went fishing in the Gulf of Mexico, but this breaking away had a definite design to it. If more businessmen would adopt some such "design" of life as the president, bellies, follows, tewer there would unhealthy, be florid faces, fewer strokes of spoplexy and paralysis, fewer cerebral hemorrhages, fewer types of heart disease. There would be more Courier.

The legislature in addition to th general appropriation bill, which with the per apportionment probably will reach approximately $13,000,000 in the next two years, half of which is payable in the new fiscal year, also appropriated a number of sums which will run close to $400,000.
