Pope Benedict Is prepared to aban
don a custom of nearly half a cen

THE INCREASE
ASlILAXn. Doe. 5. In this ter
ritory's production of cereals It Is vet
n far crv to attain the yieW of the
olden days, but steadfast proinvss is
still boine made in tlmt direction. Two
notable onuses- lmvc been nt work
to this end; First is tho increased
area devote! to erain rnisinw instead
of fruit raisins, and second is the
impetus eiven to diversified furming
due to the war.
The Brain output of various kinds
in this mid adjacent districts the
present venr, has approximated 30,
000 bushels ns compared with a vield
of wheat alone of 100,000 bushels per
tuimun, in former times before or
ehnrdijinsr monopolized the farm
hinds nt tho expense of erain rnisinc.
Threshinc returns afford a correct
index of the train vield, allowing for
a few odd bushels which escape the
machine ineident to the minimi har
vesting roundup. Grunt Davis is the
pioneer thresheminn in this locality
and he reports 37,000 bushels ns hav
ing been handled bv his erew, n force
which uveruired nine men during tho
ncttvo working season of 00 davs in
territory extending: from Phoenix to
the upper end of this valev. The hum
of the thresher was heard on 139
ranches as visited bv the Davis erew.
the cost of threshing: to farmers being
$3,403, out of which there wus paid
over jrJ.Sbj tor labor and board, not
to mention various -rontingent ex
pense. .1 he weuther was ideal during
most of the threshing period. In an
nouneing the yield the average is not
given specifically. An nverage of 23
bushels per acre was maintained, the
yield ranging from two to 30 bush
els per ncre. according to locality
and soil.
The Ashlnnd-Vnllev View district
led with 29,000 bushels: Talent. 11.-
000; Fern Vullelv-Phoenix neighbor
hood, 10,000 bushels, with scattering
returns of 1.000 bushels or more in
various localities. A' recapitulated
statement as to varieties of grain in
the total yield, exhibits 4.000 bushels
of rye and oats. 19.000 bushels of
barley, with wheat rivalling all other-
in amount to the extent of 23.000
bushels. Oats are not a staple stock
food in this section, but bnrlev is.
and the fu'ct remains that the output
in this vicinity is vet small compared
with the amount imported nnnnlly
from outside sources. This circum
stance also holds throughout all the
valley, the amount of erain brought
in from a distance for the single item
of chioken feed being prodigious. Re
turns from tho corn hnrvest are not
yet available, hut the vield has been
very generous and the quality extra
fine, the large and plump ears re
minding one of the products raised in
the prairie states where that par
ticular cereal is. bv right', crowned
king. . ,

BY
. LOXDOX, . Dec. . 1. Saturday's
elections were featured by the aston
ishing number of women voting. The
novelty of possessing the franchise
seemed to appeal to them in all parts
of the country, the women flocking
to the booths In crowds and outnum
bering male voters in some districts
In some constituencies competition
among women to achieve the distinc
tion of being the first to vote result
ed in long queues before the booths
opened.
A remarkable number of aged
even infirm women voted. In spite of
rain over virtually the whole coun
try. Men orten remarked that their
votes were nullified by their wives
supporting opposing candidates. Re
ports go so far as to contend that the
new house of commons , has . been
mainly chosen by women.
