Thayer Distributor Phone ifet i DetroltVapor Oil Stova rapid PROGRESS OF IIS C. OF C. President William A. P.arnhill of the Casa Grande chamber of commerce is at the Hotel Adams here supervising the literature which that chamber of commerce is publishing-. 'The summer season has not had much effect on Casa flrande." he said. "Tt is a wonderful valley, and the heat is not stopping those who seek Its op portunities. "We are not booming; wa are just coming into our own. We are the hub city of the valley and set the pace for the rest of the valley to follow. '"Phoenix is right near our door, or soon will be, for the new road, des tined to be one of the finest boulevards in the country, places us only 56 miles away from our metropolis ard capital city. The new road direct to Tucson, also a boulevard, makes that city our "hear neighbor. "The Southern Pacific Railroad com pany is going to build us a. new depot without delay one that will take care of a city of 10,000 people. The re ceipts of this company at Casa Grande have increased in a few years from a little more than $600 a month to more than $3200 per month. We are build ing a new high school at a cost of $150,000. A new hotel is in course of construction at a cost of $100,000. It will cater to both business and the better class of tourist trade. "Our chamber of commerce is a live one, has a big membership and every body is taking an active interest. We are going after a sewer system and other municipal improvements. Al ready we have about solved our power problem and power for pumping seems now assured for the near fu ture. We have only one bank as yet. but another is now organizing. The deposits of this bank last-March were a little more than $18S00. Today, less than half a year, they are nearly $600,000. We are doing our part for the great state of Arizona. We are the best bet in opportunities for the average man on the western coast. 'Wait until you see our chamber of commerce literature which The lie publican is getting up for us. It is an ambitious booKlet, a truthful one, and one of which our Phoenix neighbors will not be ashamed." FAMOUS AUTO W MEN ABANDONED The automobile trap at the corner of Tenth and McKinley streets, to whi;h there have been some veiled and in direct allusions in these columns, is no more. It has been abandoned so that automobiles may traverse that section without danger of being taken un awares. It was uncertain whether the trap was maintained by the city or the street railway company, but it transr pires that it. as well as everything else In Tenth street north of Pierce, is a part of the holdings of the street rail way company. That fact is empha sized by a sign which was erected, probably less as a threat than as a de fense of the right of the company to maintain anything it pleases on that private no-thoroughfare. The sisn bears the inscription: "This property isa private right-of-way. Permission to pass over it is revocable at any time." RANGES ARE HELPED BY SUMMER SHOWERS Local summer showers made their appearance in the southern part of the district and on the summer ranges and were of great benefit. Reports to the weather bureau indicate favorable con ditions of stock and range except on the northeastern plateau, where rain is much needed. The supervisor of the Tusayan Xa-tional Forest reports that although the spring was backward, both the grama and bunch grass types are in excellent condition. Practically all cattle and sheep have reached their summer ranges and their condition is above the average. Following favor able conditions of grass and weather and in accordance with expectations, the calf crop is the largest in years. The water supply is Holding up well in nearly all parts of the district except in parts of Apache and Kavajo coun ties. Cotton has made fine progress in all parts of the state; night temperatures have been slightly below normal but for short periods only near the early morning while day temperatures have been ideal for the plants best devel opment. Favorable conditions of soil and weather have prevailed above the lower valleys and corn, wheat and oats look promising. Where facilities are at hand an unusual acreage of corn has been planted for silage; last year's successful crop has encouraged many to adopt it for supplementary feeding purposes. The orange crop in the Salt River valley is said to be small but the fruit large and of fine appearance. Xo dropping- has yet been reported, owing probably in part to the absence of extremely high temperatures. Grape fruit are reported to be normal as to size and quantity. The apricot crop which was greatly reduced by high winds early in the season, is of excel lent quality and the fruit large. o E CLUB FOH HARDING CASA GRANDE, Jilne 18. An en thusiastic meeting of the leading Re publicans of Casa Grande and vicinity was held Wednesday evening and a Harding-for-President club organized, J.- F. Brown being elected president, Mrs. Ben S. AVilson, vice president; A. A. Jayne, secretary; Capt. Dan T. P. Eart, treasurer. A larger membership was followed and others are signing up as rapidly as the opportunity of fers. The city of Casa Grande has always been a banner Republican precinct of Pinal county and -Arizona while the country districts, have always been strongly Democratic. Great numbers of Democrats are, however, "this year registering as Republicans and will vote the Republican ticket and the coming agricultural empire of the Casa Grande valley will roll up a ma jority for Harding, the next president of the United States, that will make all other precincts of Arizona ashamed of themselves. Many of the leading Democrats of the Casa Grande valley, sick and tired of the un-American policy of the Wilsonian party, are aligning themselves with the Repub licans and joining the Hardlng-for-President club, realizing that Harding means safe, sane government and a genuine American policy for the Amer ican people during his term of office. A vigorous campaign will be waged by the Republicans in the Casa Grande valley until the last vote is counted election day.' 1 IS M pecials for Today Boiling Beef, per lb. - - 12c Veal Roast, per lb. - 20c Veal Stew, per lb. - - - 15c Shoulder Pork Roast, per lb. 29c Lamb Stew, per lb. - 19c Shoulder Lamb Roast, per lb. 28c Hamburger, per lb. - - - 1 7c FORAGE POT MARKET 345 W.
