The value Of the fertilizers in the ia
BILE is estimated by computing the value
of the materials at tho prices at which
they can be obtained in market, Thus,
soluble phosphoric acid is purchasable at
six cents pound ; and ammonia at TWEEN
ty-fve cents pound. 1t does not fol-
low, of course, that these materials cost
these figures to tho makers of superphos-
pilates. They can be obtained from va
rious crude substances at cheaper rates.
But if the phosphoric acid and ammonia
were bought in tho market, that is what
they would cost, and no farmer would de-
sire to pay more than tho aggregate val
ne of these materials at market rates.
These materials constitute all that is Of
appreciable value in the fertilizers, the
rest consisting of sand, water and sui
phate of lime, tplaster, )-the latter be-
ing purchasablo in any quantity at eight
dollars ton.
To these values. thus estimated for
purposes Of comparison, must be added
in actual practice, the cost Of mixing the
ingredients, aud preparing them for mar.
ket.
The table shows shat some fertilizers
are worth to the farmer twice as much o.
others, and that 10 purchasing some Of

Shuttle Machine, liable incuded,) it is therefore
the simplest
Sixth-It does the greatest variety Of work
seventh-1t does the best work.
Eighth-1t does not need to be dripping In oil

catch the oil underneath as is indispensable with
some of the Shuttle Machines in use
Ninth-Because it does not have its, but is al

GOLD MINING ON THE COLORADO.
The Deseret News has a cores
pondence at St. George, who writes,
February 9Th, as follows:
Parties are just up from St.
Thomas, on the Muddy, who report
considerable excitement in that sec
ton on account of the discoveries of
placer gold diggings on the Colorado,
above the mouth of the Virgin.
The precious metal is found in the
tine or flour state aud it is reported
that half an Inc is made a day to
the hand. Several parties, number
ing III all near fifty men, have made
an outfit here and at the Muddy and
gone over with three months outfit
to work. The spot they have select
ed is above the mouth of Grand
Wash, neal the mouth of Diamond
river, probably from IS to 100 miles
either from ST. Thomas, St. George
or kanab. Parties have visited and
prospected various places along the
river, as well as the spot described
and say that there is fine gold in the
sands all along the river. The par
ties seem satisfied that they have a
good thing and that the Colorado
will be lined with mining camps ere
another winter sets in.

ARIZONA.-We extract the follow
ing from the Prescott Miner of the
Sd:
San Francisco mountain is now
the whitest object in all this section,
it being covered with snow from
summit to base, or vice versa, which
ever may suit best.
VIM. II. Hardy, of our sister
county, paid Prescott a hasty visit
last week. From him we learned
that mining matters in Wallapal
District were as cheering as could
be desired. The mill was running,
and there was considerable talk
among men of means, of erecting
furnaces.
The hollow truce made by the vile
Collyer with the savages, Is being
broken on every hand, and would to
God the old scoundrel's neck was
broken, so that he could not again
fool the Government out of money;
stay the hand of Justice or cause the
death of good citizens.
