“Where is Boston?” asked the
Prince of Wales. And the press

our hospitality, lias refrained
from reminding tl 2' Prince that
Boston is a place that loomed

Writing
How many professional writers
do you know? You may think
the list is a short one; as a matter
of fact, it is not. Every store
keeper who" puts" an advertise
ment in the local paper is a writer
and paid for his writing, not by
an editor, blit by the people who
buy the merchandise he writes
about. There is no [overstating
the importance of this writing.
There is no way to judge whe
ther it takes'more effort, brains,
and inspiration to write a first
class advertisement than a first
class story. One thing is signi
ficant: more and more young men
and women who have native ta
lent in writing are taking up the
writing of advertisement as a
business. —Collier’s.

NOTICE-Lease Holders!
Is your oil lease properly located and surveyed? When the
first well is brought in, do you think you can hold your lease?
What do you value your leaae at? Is it worth while to know
that this lease is yours, or would you prefer to wait until the
first well is brought in and then find out, to your sorrow, that
your lease was void? Why? Because your location posts were
not properly set, or it is possible your location is on the wrong
section. Remember, that if this is not done right, and accord
ing to law, later on you will have big law suits, and if not fi
nancially prepared you will lose all your rights. We will pro
perly survey and place posts and monuments for you. Do not
wait. It may mean your losing a fortune. Write or wire at
once.

Production and the H. C. L.
The prospect of every Ameri
can having a fair share of the
things necessary to sustain life
and make it -worth living, de
pends in part upon the speed and
quantity in which those things
are produced. If we were able
for a certain length of time to
devote the whole of our produc
tive powers to making useful
things and nothing else, their
cost would be reduced, in spite
of the machinations of the profi
teer, to a price which would en
able everyone to have all requir
ed.
It is obvious that the wage
earners of the country constitute
the chief market to which pro
ducers must look for the put cha‘ e
of the goods produced In the
main, it is necessary that we pro
duce for ourselves and for others
such things as we require, such
as food, shelter and clothing. If
a sufficiency of such things were
produced, their prices would fall
to a level where all might obtain
what their necessities demanded.
The cheaper these things be
come, the less they take up of
the wages of the workers, the
more money is freed for the pur
chase of other things and a de
mand is created for fresh com
modities. This demand furnishes
further employment and addi
tional wages. So this cycle con
tinues to revolve -indefinitely
around Production. By increas
ing production the cost of living
not only is decreased but employ
ment is augmented and money is
liberated to command less neces
sary things.
If we do not adopt every means
of increasing output, if we do
not abolish waste- and diminish
unnecessary expenditure, w e
must gradually impoverish our
selves as a nation. Unless we
give a larger share of our na
tional effort to production of
necessities and save on luxuries
that more capital may be releas
ed for plants and machinery for
further production, conditions
will be produced which will tend
to lower the general standard of
life of the wage earners in spite
of higher nominal wages.
But, if we are prepard to work
hard, to spend wisely, to save
regularly, to cut down waste and
extravagance and invest secure
ly, shorter working hours wil
become possible, wages will be
really and not normally higher and
prosperity will -be our national
portion. %
One of the greatest aids to the
furtherance of this program is
consistent and regular invest
ment in government saVines se
curities. War Savings Stamps,
Thrift Stamps, Savings Certfi
cates and Liberty Bonds offer op
portunity for the putting aside
of any sum of money no matter
how great or small. They are
safe, they bear high interest and
inv,est in them new capital, new
opportunity and new prosperity
for the people of the nation.
No Bank. Failures
No national bank failures for
more than six monthts and only
two small national bank failures
over the last nineteen months’
period, is the record for immu
nity in the past half century,
according to the report on hank
ing conditions just made public
by the Comptroller of the Cur
rency. Not since 1870 has this
record for immunity from failure
for national banks been equalled,
the comptroller declares.
Twenty charters for new na
tional banks were issued during
the month of July and 54 national
banks were granted permission
to increase their capital. The
aggregate increase in the nation
al bank capital was over $12,000,-
000, while the capital of the new
ly organized banks amounted to
$780,000. Banking conditions
over the country indicate a flour
ishing market and a rather
general possession of money.
Flying Circus at Fair
Definite information has been
received by the Northern Arizona
State Fair Association that two
government airplanes will be in
Prescott during the dates of the
Northern Arizona State Fair,
October 16-17-18th, for the pur
pose of making exhibition flights.
This news will be received joy
fully by the counties of the
north, for in many instances this
will be the first opportunity oi
many to view the sailings of the
wonderful “birds.”
Special entertainment features
are being arranged for by tht
management of the Northern
Arizona State Fair. The exhibits
will be unusually attractive and
interesting. Keen competition
will be shown in aIT departments
of the Fair work. The large cash
prizes for county exhibits is re
ceiving the consideration of all
Fair commissioners.
From Mohave County-, Com
missioner MacDuffee states an
excellent and comprehensive dis
play of the ores of Mohave County
will be made. As customary
with Navajo County, the other
counties will have to hustle to
keep up with the beautiful dis
play which will be in the capable
hands of Commissioner Flake.
Wm. Beeson, of Coconino County,
who knows how and when to
make a display, expects to be at
the Northern Arizona State Fair
with a display of the excellent
products of Coconino County.
E. R. DeWitt, of Apadhe, will
represent the northern county
admirably with a display of the
products from Apache which are
bound to be prize winners. John
Bianconi, of Yavapai County,
one of the best known fair com
missioners in Arizona, will repre
sent Yavapai with a good display
in the agricultural and horticul
tural hall.
W. S. S. Totals $100,000,000
Total of War Savings
Stamps throughout the United
States for the first seven months
of 1919 amounted to nearly SIOO
- according to a report
made by the Savings Division of
the Treasury department. The
exact figure is $95,400,470.21.
This makes a per capita invest
ment of about ninety cents,
whereas the government at the
beginning of the year asked a
per capita purchase of $lO worth
War Stamps in order to meet war
debts.
“The saving of nearly SIOO,-
000,000 in seven months is con
crete proof that the governments
thrift campaign is checking ex
travagant expenditures,” the re
port says. “Cheeking of extrav
agant buying is the only remedy
for high prices. Saving SIOO,-
000,000 simply means cutting
down demand by $100,000,000
and turning the money to much
needed production of necessities.
Leading economists of the
country have said there is no
hope of lower prices until the
people understand generally that
they must stop buying things
that are not necessary and they
have endorsed the United States
Government War Savings Stamps
campaign as the most effective
remedy to that end.
The first dollar out us your pay
or salary is the easiest to soend:
so save it.
“Five years ago I could have
bought that property for ” is
a statement that may be heard
every day from some one who
“could” but didn’t buy property
when they should. The only dif
ference between then and now is
that you have to have more capi
tal to buy. The same conditions
prevail so far as profit is con
cerned. —Coconino Sun.
