The Way to Manage Hard Timber.

The Way 60 Manage Hard Timber.
Borers of different species of insects
are liable to work in hard timber even
after the lumber has been worked up
into parts of tools and implements.
Ox-bows, ax-hgndles and pick-handles
made of the hardest and toughest
quality of hickory will often become so
thoroughly "poWder-posted" as to be
unfit for any use except fuel. Powder
post is caused by numerous minute
borers working in the timber. If tim
Der is cut down and split or sawed out
in the latter part of summer, and is
stuck up so that it can season readily.
borers will never enter the wood.
But as trees cannot always be felled
nor sawed out at this season of the
year some means must be employed to
destroy the 5orers or to prevent their
entering the sawed or the split timber.
The most convenient and effectual way
to prevent injury from borers is co put
the plank or scantling, soon after the
timber Is sawed, into a stream or pond
of water and allow the pieces to remain
soaking for a month or six weeks.
Then take them from the water and
stick them up beneath an open shed
where the wind can blow through the
pile. By this treatment hard and
tough timber will be rendered insect
proof and the grain will be much frmer
and tougher than If the lumber had
been stuck up without being soaked in
the water.
In some parts of New jersey farmers
treat all their timber in the foregoing
manner. For example They will dig
up an oak or an ash tree for sleigh-run-
n rs, have the batt log sawed into
planks, then excavate a pond hole along
a small brook, where they do not have
access to a mill. dam, and stick up these
planks In the water, where they are al
lowed to soak for nearly two months.
Timber for wagon tongues. for harroWs,
for thills and for other purposes is
treated in the same manner. All such
timber will wear like iron and will never
become powder-posted nor injured by
large borers. When timber is placed
in the water every piece should be kept
covered with water until the lumber is
removed. If sand and grit accumulate
on the sides let the surface be swept
clean before the lumber is removed
from the water. Every farmer should
keep a generous supply of good timber
on hand, so that any tool or farm i'm
plement may be repaired with tough
timber.-M y Herald.

Besides these, there are large number of smaller towns and newer settlements all along the route, all of which are rapidly increasing in population.
 With all these arguments show ing the necessity of filling this gap of eight hundred miles, be- tween San Diego and Mesilla, with daily mail service, and con sidering it's vast utility to both public and private interests, we have a strong hope that the en- | lightened statesman now occupy ing the position of Postmaster.

WAsGINGTON's BIRTH DAY.

Last Monday was the birth day of George Washington, and we are ashamed to say that no pub- lie demonstration in memory of the great patriot and deliyerer, was had in Yuma. A few pa- triotic citizens, among whom we noticed Julius Samter, H. s. Fitzgerald & Go. and Redondo & Balz, flung their flags to the breeze, but that was all. Noth- ing else was done. Business went on as usual and there was no sign of a holiday. What seemed most remarkable was, that at Fort Yu- ma, no salute was fired, and not even the national flag was float ing True, it was windy day, and pretty hard on flags, but it seems that the Government could afford to wear out a little bunting on that great anniversary. We have been accustomed to see United States military posts fire national salutes on that day and make other demonstions in honor of him who was "frst in war, first in peace and first in the hearts of his countrymen."
 But American citizens here are all to blame that we did not do something in honor of the mem- ory of the Father of our country. Has patriotism died out here? Shall the name of WASHINGTON ever be
 heard
 By freeman, and thrill not bis breast {? Is there one out of bondage who halls not
 the word

 road Bill.

road Bill.
 SAN FRANCISCO, February 23.- Dispatches received during the night from Washington say the Texas and Pacific Railway bill met with a most unexpected de- feat in the House to-day (the 22d). Houghton has engineered the bill for a long time and offered it to- day not for passage but in the shape of a resolution directing it's consideration on Wednesday evening next. On ordering the main question the vote stood by tellers 151 to 62. This made the lobby confident and they were sure of success but another ques. tiOn had to be put and that was, will the House suspend the rules and pass the resolution |? This called for the ayes and noes on the vote which though, required there should be two thirds to carry it. The proposition did not re. ceive even a majority. The vote standing IF ayes to 129 nays.
 The New England and New York and the western delegations went against it. The Pennsylva- mia republicans were generally for it and the democrats against it. Maryland voted for it, though the southern delegation is against it. There is where Scott made a wrong count for he expected to get the full southern delegation. Another effort is being made to pass the bill but in view of to.

Mall Subsidy.
 WASHINGTON, D, O., February 23.-In the Senate to-day, at the expiration of the morning hour, the consideration of the post office appropriation bill was resumed, the pending question being an abrogation of the Pacific Mail con- tract. After debate vote was taken on the question to strike out the repeating clause and re- suited in ayes, II, nays, 52.
 The action of the House in re- pealing the contract of 1872 for an additional subsidy was then con- cured Tn. Edmunds, from the Judiciary Committee, submitted a report on the question whether the contract of 1872 with the Pa cific Mail Steamship Company for subsidy was still obligatory. The committee reported that it is not obligatory, mainly because the company did not furnish the ships required for the additional ser vices at the proper time and that the Postmaster-General had no legal authority to accept the yes ) sells when they were rendered him, and his action cannot bind the Government.
 Station Troops along the Stage '1 Road from San Diego to Yuma
 Record of the Pacific Coast Com
 gressmen on the Texas Pacific Railroad BilI.
 WASHINGTON, February 24.- At the instance of David Felsen- held, the California Senators, and representatives have united in a letter to the Secretary of War, re- questing troops to be stationed in , San Diego county along the stage road between San Diego and Fort Yuma, on the frontier of Lower California, in order to afford eff cient protection to the people. This request is made in view of the numerous Indian Outrages which have occurred in the vici- nity of Milquitai aud which the power of the county authorities is inadequate to prevent in that re. mote region.
 Following is the record of the , Pacific Coast Cangressmen on the motion to suspend the rules and allow the Texas Pacific Railway bill to be considered: Houghton and Nesmith voted aye; Page and Lutterell voted no. Clayton and 3 Kendall were absent.

 g WASHINGTON, February 25.- y The Senate yesterday passed the P bill admitting the Territory of |, Colorado and New Mexico to the Union. The debate on these bills was quite long, but a large num- Der of amendments were made to each bill, which necessitates they return to the House, so that it is not improbable that they may fail of final passage.
 7 The House was in session all : night, and at noon to-day was , still at debate on the question whether the House shall consider the force bill for the South as 5 agreed upon in republican caucus. : Evidently the situation of legis- , lation in the House is such that t an extra session of Congress may be safely predicted. It now ap- t pears impossible that the neces. , sary legislation can be accomplish , ed in the few days remaining be- fore the constitutional expiration , of the present term.

THE PROSPECT.

Another spring is dawning up' on us. In this part of the Terri tory the trees are already far ad- vanced in their new foliage, and everything betOkens that the an- nuaI vernal season in all it's beau ty is again here. Ia this climate it is hard to fix the line of de- markation between winter and spring-hard to tell when winter ends and spring begins. Our whole winter season is what would be called in any other country, delightful spring. Therefore we have to look to visible Signs, such as deciduous trees putting on their new robes, and the swelling throats of the feathered songsters, who are always filst to hail the spring, to determine when that season has actually arrived. But it is here. Hail glorious spring {! Season of renewed leaf and blOs- som, of opening bud and bursting flower, season when all nature takes a fresh start and the very blood seems to bound through the veins of all animated things with a more ecstatic thrill. But spring is also the time for work. But small proportion of civilized man. kind are able to lie in shady groves by the side of murmerlng streams and in listless idleness enjoy the pleasures of the season, without doing anything to help to keep in order the great machinery of this work. day world. We must still plan, and work and struggle, for if we cease to do it the car of pro- gress will take retrograde move ment and civilization will return to barbarism, Labor is honorable. whether it be with the brain, the pen or the whole force of the physical mechanism. Labor does everything that is done to support the structure of human society: Heart of the people, working men,
 Marrow and bone of human powers.
 Who on yonr sturdy backs sustain
 Through streaming time. this world of
 Ours!'
 The prospect for Arizona at the opening of this spring is better than it ever was before. We have peace, blessed peace. We hear no more of the traveller, the miner or the farmer being cut down by the murdereus savage. Every man goes now where he pleases, unmolested and without fear. The knowledge of this great change is spreading all over our country and accross the ocean, ~ and it is reasonable to expect that during the present year thousands will come to Arizona who would not dare to risk their lives under the old state of things, when the bloody Apache ruled the land Besides the attraction presented by our vast mines, our great pas toral region is attracting a valua- ble class ofcitizens, who are bring ing their cattle horses and sheep into the Territory with view to permanent settlement.
 Our mines are yielding largely, although the sceintific working of the ores has only just commenced Capitalists are here and are com. ing, with their machinery and their skilled workmen, and soor the bosom of the Colorado will be crowded with steamers and bargef carrying bullion to the sea. These are some of our prospects for the season. Are they noE pretty good ?
