Daily Visits From Aeroplanes
Mesa Is ceasing to be aeroplane shy,
for now that Lieutenant Worthington is
making daily trips to the Gem city, the
populace is beginning to take the visits
as a matter of course. Some interest
ing flying was done yesterday by the
officer when he came so low that the
plane seemed but little above the higher
buildings. This altitude was main
tained over the business and resident
district, giving the people a close up of
the machine as it made its way from
east to west, circling lower until the
landing field was reached.

SEES END OF BIG FORTUNES
(St. Paul Pioneer Press!
Croesus and his ilk hereatfer will
have no place In the hall of fame, so far
as the United States Is concerned, for
the days of accumulation of great for
tunes have passed, according to Guy
Huston, president of the First Joint
Stock Land bank of Chicago.
The banker was the principal speaker
at the annual banquet and meeting of
the Minnesota Farm Mortgage Bankers'
association recently when he prophesied
that there never can be another great
fortune, such as exists today, with the
countined operation of the income tax
law.
If the tax does not take away a large
share 'of the earnings in the lifetime of
the accumulator, the inheritance tax
,nakes up for that partial neglect, tbt

Called on the Wrong Man
Yesterday morning undertaker W. A.
Burton was called to one side by a
young man, who asked for a confiden
tial talk with him. Leading the stranger
back to a secluded spot in the rear of
an office, Mr. Burton asked the trouble.
After some stammering, it developed
that the confidential communication
was a request that Burton perform the
ceremony. It was explained that the
latter gentleman was just a plain un
dertaker and .that ceremonies whether
marriage or death were out of his line.
The further explanation was then made
by the other that he was not after be
ing buried but just married in a quiet
sort of way. by Bishop Dana. He was
led by the undertaker to the bishop,
who is yet pondering over whether it
was a complaint to be mistaken - for
even as good looking citizen as Burton.

LUMBER IS CHEAPER
We have frequently told you that lumber is cheaper in comparison thau almost
al lother products. Here are some figures to prove it :
Prospective buyers of lumber may get solid comfort from the figures shown in
the Federal Reserve Bulletin issued by the Federal Reserve Board under
date of May 1, in which for the information of its banker members the March
index number of wholesale prices in the United States for the principal com
modities are compared on the basis that the 1913 price' of each commodity
equaled 100. . ( . v
The 1913 priee of wheat, for instance was represented by 100, while the March,
1919, price must on the same basis be represented by 266. Deducting the base
of 100, representing the 1913 price, the remainder of 166 shows the advance in
quotations since 1913. As this 166 was an addition to a base price of 100, it
indicates an increase of 166 per cent. . ,
In the graphic chart that folloAvs the heavy upright line represents the base of
100 or 1913 prices. The single column to the left indicates a price decline,
while the other columns extending to the right indicate advances. The figure
of 49 for lumber means that compared with the 1913 price there has been an
advance of 49 per cent calculated from the March, 1919, price.

'The life of your engine and car

of lubrication is to prevent any two
pieces of metal that are working one
against the other from touching. This
3 accomplished by having a turn ot
oil between these two metals. Upon
this film of oil depends the life of all
your bearings, cylinders, pistons and
rings. Only three different grades of
lubricants are used. The owner should
provide himself with a supply of gss
cylinder oil, grease and steam engine
oil.
"Never une steam engine oil or any

heavy and hilly roads uses up oil muh
faster than city driving. Put in an
extra pint o foil every hundred miles
or so. This precaution will avoid
trouble with bearings or cylinders.
