It with all the vigor and strength he
poesed, but Invariably to deaf ears.
Ills experience as an agriculture
agent and observer had showed him
in clear-cut fashion the fallacy of a
single crop In an agricultural com
munity. He was attempting to fore
stall such a calamity as ordinarily at
tends single crop plantings.
But Salt River, valley ranchers, al
most to the man, had decided their own
farming problems they were going to
plant cotton. "King Cotton" with all
its riches why plant anything else?
And so Agricultural Agent Heard
went from place to place, from ranch
to ranch, talking, eating and sleeping
diversified farming. Soon he came to
be an outcast, as It were. Farmers
scoffed at the Idea that reverses might
be their lot ;they belittled his efforts;
they ridiculed his Ideas.
After days of traveling and preach-
In r. Heard came upon a rancher In the
north section of the valley. The rancher
was a willing listener, so Heard poured
out his story: he repeatedMt once and
then again. He drove home every sa
Uent point with the force that bespeaks
a presidential candidate In action. He
told the story frontward and backward,
argued it from every angle almost
talked himself to death. And when he
had finished, he got the following
renlr:
"You damned fool, I guess I know
how to run my business. Tou felllows
talk all rirht. but talk is cheap." So
Heard took his leave, as unceremonious
on this occcaslon as on hundreds of
previous occasions.
Events Proved the Theory Wat Right
A short time ago that same farmer
walked into the Water Users' asao
elation and paid Ms first instalment
of his year's assessment. He paid cash,
being one of the comparative few who
did. He semed exceedingly prosperous
and was wearing a broad smile. His
demeanor attracted the attention of
water users' officials and Secretary
Henshaw engaged him In conversation.
The farmer related the following story:
"You kno. Khen that fool agricul
ture agent came out to my place last
fall I thought he was craiy. I told him
that I guessed I knew my business and
that he'd better take care of his Own.
He had talked all afternoon, almost,
shout diversified farming. I wanted to
plant my entlie 10 In cotton.
"But do you know, after he had gone
I got to thinking the matter over and
I wnt in and told my wife. I didn't
sleep much that night was pretty busy
thlnklrg. My wife was restless, too.
We had thoroughly threshed the matter
out In our minds and when morning
arrived we had determined on a line
of action.

ami then the price cf cattle began fall
ing. The price finally dropped com
pletely out, so I got rid of my scrubs
and bought pure-bred stuff, some of
the best dairy cattlr, in the valley, and
I only paid $17b a h-ad, too.
"Yes. I am able to pay my first in
stalment without inconvenience. I
could pay. the yearly assessment now
without taxing my financial reserve.
And I've got a nice little balance in the
bank. too.
Moreover. I'm getting a nice little
milk check each month. I've got plonty
of money to harvest my cotton crop,
pay for the picking, ginning and baling.
and am so fixed that I can now it in
definitely nold it until the market is
right, so that I can pet a price that
will net me a proper return.
"Say. do you know, the agriculture
agent fellow is right smart: he knows
his business. He must have had some
valuable experience somewhere."

T. C. Cuvellier, director of public
health survey, has een called to Globe,
where
public meeting will be held
tomorrow night, at which time a re-
port will be made of the public health
e rjn. rnnntv. rnvirlnr com-
, ., . .
municable diseases, housing and sani-
tation.
The survey in Gila county was the
most thorough made In the state, ac-
cording to Director Cuvellier, because
of the county having the largest work-
ing fund in Arizona. The state board
of health's allowance of $250 was sup-
piemented Dy jizi'u Dy me peopie oi
that district.
What action will be taken will de-
pend on the report which will be sub-
mitted Monday. What has already
been done in an Arizona town is ex-
plained In the following bulletin issued
by the state board of health: .
"Full credit must be given to the
town of Florence lor enacting city or-
dlnances and taklr g other measures to
provide for the pt-oper housing of Its
people and the preservation of the
health of the community. Following a
survey by one of our survey workers,
tne city council ot Klorence passed a
most effective set of ordinances, and
the school boards voted for the imme-
mate employment of a school nurse,
A brief of the ordinances adopted Is
as follows:
'First Ordinance Inviting state
board of health to exercise supervision
of public eating hrnises and soda foun-
tains, provides penalties for violation
of state laws after due notice of said
violations to be remedied.
'Second Housing ordinance which
provides for ample space between all
unruiiii.9, (uuiuijiin I'eujir iivin(f; pro
vides ventilation for nil ground-floor
dwellings: defines a minimum area for
sleeping rooms, baths and toilet rooms:
provides ample vindow space In all
dwellings erected for living and sleep
ing purposes; requires a toilet for each
family in all buildings hereafter erect
ed: requires that all privies be con
structed in confot-mitv with specifies
tions adopted ana designed to make
same sanitary; requires garbage and
ash receptacles for all dwellings; in
sures proper window space and ven
tllation In all duellings of the tene
ment house type.'
"To those of tis who are familiar
with the type of structure which now
houses such n latr nrnnnrtlnn nf nnr
wage earners it will be recognized that
tne town or Florence has taken some
very judicious steps to prevent a rene
tition of the present evils so prom
inent throughout Arizona.
"The action of the school boards In
providing a school nurse to watch over
the health and physical condition of
the children and to instruct them in
health habits is bound to haveu tellln
effect upon the health and morals of
tn community.
.There sre rrany Arizona towns
which .could well profit bv the splen
did example wh ch has been set bv
the town cf Flornce. The stntA board
or health wishes to commend this ac
tion upon the pirt of the town au
thorities in Flornr and to thank them
ror the splendid spirit with wMrh the
survey was received and for the
prompt action taten to Insure the eood
health of the community, both present
ana luiure.

"Mentioning the second coming 4t
Christ more than 50 times, the Xew

He declared tha- Christ did not' prom
ise to take people to heaven when thev
died, but when they are raised from
the dead.
Mr. F,enton will speak tonight on

TEMPE, Oct. 10. Tempe High
school closed the first month of school
Friday with a registration of ISO. The
total registration at the corresponding
time last year wan 132. With the large
increase in enrollment It has been; nec
essary to divide c lasses and rearrange
schedules However, work In all ae
nartments is progressing nicely and
the splendid spir;t of helpfulness and
co-operation manifested everywhere
has helped much to give us anexcel
lent start in the year's work.
There was sufficient demand this
year for a class In Latin, which is te
ing taught by Miss Scudder. New
courses have bee:i introduced In physi
cal training for girls and agriculture
All girls now tak 30 minutes of physi
cal training on alternate days under
the direction of Miss Scribner, who Is
also organizing a glee club and
school orchestra and Is meeting with
much response. Agriculture Is being
started under the direction of David
Creighton, who :s a Salt BJver valley
boy recently graduated from the agrl
cultural school of Illinois untverslty
He will also handle the military drill
and assist In the science department
Courses in vocational agriculture will
be planned, as there Is demand for
them. Enlargement of the courses in
manual training and domestic science
cannot be accomplished until we get
the new vocational building.
School officials are especially anx
ious that parent and students realize
the necessity far regular and sys
tematic home work. The courses are
planned so as to include a reasonable
amount of home work for the average
student, and the lack of it. except in
the case of the eeptlonal student,
must mean a large waste of time and
lower grades.
