Aztec Ruins Lure Many Adventurers
An interesting side trip may be made from the Santa Fe Trail by detouring from Gallup, New Mexico, to the Aztec Ruins National Monument, which contains an interesting cluster of prehistoric ruins.
The Monument is located near the town of Aztec. The most striking and best preserved of the ruins is the Aztec Ruin, a large E-shaped pueblo structure of approximately 500 rooms. The first story is still standing, and in 24 rooms the original ceilings are intact. The ceilings in rooms are supported by large beams, cut and dressed with stone tools; fine examples of work of the Stone Age.
There are a number of other ancient ruins located near Aztec.
MOST ACCIDENTS ON SUNDAY
Twenty percent of all automobile fatalities result from Sunday accidents. Next in the order of the number of fatalities occurring on them come Saturday, Thursday, Monday, Friday, Wednesday and Tuesday.
TODAY AND TOMORROW
By Frank Parker Stockbridge
GOVERNOR - Federal Reserve
In picking Eugene Black of Atlanta for Governor of the Federal Reserve Board President Roosevelt has followed the example of his last Democratic predecessor in selecting a man from the South to head up the nation's financial system. I am one of those who believe that the late W. P. G. Harding of Alabama was the best man who ever held the post to which Mr. Black has been appointed.
Mr. Black was picked, I am told, security for money.
In the United States, since 1792, we have mined about 226 million ounces, worth above $4,500,000,000; and that, curiously enough, is just about the amount of monetary gold still in this country.
In the same 450 years of gold production the amount of silver mined in the world was a fraction more than fifteen thousand million ounces; and the ratio of silver to gold in the world's monetary system-before silver was dropped by one country after another, was just about fifteen to one.
Silver is coming back as money, but it is more likely to arrive at a ratio of about twenty or twenty-five to one. It looks to me as if food farming,
then the traditional "sixteen to one" or the old Populist days.
POPULATION - needed growth
The United States could support probably ten times the population now have. It used to be all that nine tenths of the population could do to produce food enough for the ten tenths; now it takes the time and work of only a fifth, perhaps less, to feed everybody.
Population in the United States is almost standing still. Unless there is an unexpected upturn in the birth rate or we open our doors again to immigration grants from Europe, we shall find ourselves still less dependent on the producers of food.
GOVERNOR Federal Reserve
In picking Eugene Black of Atlanta for Governor of the Federal Reserve Board President Roosevelt has followed the example of his last Democratic predecessor in selecting a man from the South to head up the nation's financial system. I am one of those who believe that the late W. P. G. Harding of Alabama was the best man who ever held the post to which Mr. Black has been appointed.
Mr. Black was picked, I am told, mainly because he is entirely free from Wall Street influences. He has a bigger and more important task than any of his predecessors had, since it is on the cards. I believe that the entire banking system of the nation will be taken into the Federal Reserve System, and the head of that system will exercise financial control even greater than that of the Governor of the Bank of England.
Unlike many bankers, Mr. Black has a sense of humor. But his reputation for sound, homely common-sense is of the highest.
ROCKEFELLERS they move
Times change and landmarks pass. The Rockefellers, father and son, are moving from the historic address "26 Broadway" to the new Rockefeller Center, five miles up town. For more than fifty years "26" has been the headquarters of the Standard Oil interests. Nobody knows how many millions have been made there, but probably enough to pay off our national debt, if the men who made it had kept it.
The Rockefellers don't keep their money. They spend it largely in vast enterprises for the public welfare, education, health and the restoration of historic antiquities.
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., is in the limelight just now because he objected to Communist propaganda being put into a mural painting by Diego de Rivera, the Mexican artist who had been engaged to do some work in the Rockefeller Center. Some "Liberals" are making a great fuss, saying that Mr. Rockefeller is no judge of art. That may be true, but wouldn't he look foolish promoting Communism?
GOLD since 1493
According to the United States Bureau of Mines all the gold that has been mined in the world since any kind of records have been kept; that is, from 1493, the year after Columbus discovered America, down to date amounts to a little over a thousand million ounces. At $20 an ounce that is worth twenty billion dollars, and more than half if it is still in the form of money or gold bars held in banks as order by President Zeyn. Minutes of last meeting read and approved.
NOT SO MANY YEARS AGO"
Compare!
ADVERTISING is economic better living, greater com how important advertising news be shown by a comparison.
Not so many years ago, before a hard to buy many things because meant small production and cost. It meant also high selling.
Advertising creates demand—w ing greater volume reduces man tribution easy it cuts down sell only made it cheaper and easier.

Zanjero's bill for labor $19.50, ordered paid.
Zanjero reported that Mr. A. Schenk used water on land in Extension on which there was no water right. Zanjero reported completing two more bridges, and that ditches are all in good order.
Treasurer reported having seen such land owners in Extension as were in arrears, with payments, found Mr. Boswell willing to pay but Mr. Crum indifferent. Resolved to refuse to let Mr. Crum have any water until he had complied with his obligations. Treasurer agreed to confer with Mr. Crum again.
Resolved to place a bridge over main ditch on East Street, also on Palm Street, between Rust and Langenberger. Zanjero to begin construction, also to make bridge on East Street 20 feet instead of 18 feet.
Resolved to send Mr. Schenk notice to appear at next meeting of trustees, and explain why he used water on land that had no right of way for water from Anaheim Water company. Zanjero instructed to present Mr. Schenk with such notice. Secretary was instructed to draft a form of receipt of the Water company for the Extension people, and present same to the trustees at their next meeting for approval, also to write out a form of procedure, or the duties of the zanjero, for the approval of the board, the same then be given zanjero for his further guidance. Resolved that when water sales are less than $8.00 per week, the water then be kept above Anaheim during the night. Water sales $9.00. Meeting adjourned.

on any important scale, will be a thing of the past in fifty or a hundred years from now. More people will live in the country, but fewer will be engaged in trying to make money out of growing food. They will get their cash from other forms of labor and of products of the land.
LAND what it will earn
What is good farm land worth? An English friend told me not long ago that the best land in England, where the average production per acre of all crops is much higher than in America, the markets are at the door, the growing season is longer and the climate generally more favorable, can be bought for $100 or less per acre, when it can be bought at all. With an experience of two thousand years behind them, English farmers are pretty likely to know what values are.
I doubt whether any land in America can earn interest in a very much higher valuation than that, except in a very few highly favored spots and then only by intensive cultivation of high-priced perishable fruits and garden truck.
One of the principal causes of much of the present trouble of farmers is that they paid, or promised to pay, more for their land than it was worth, and their mortgages represent more than the actual value.
Land, like anything else, is worth only what it will earn.
