A New Departure,

Some ten years ago Mr.. George Whitaker,
OF Mason, N. H., occupying the old, rocky,
and hilly farm on which both his father and
grandfather had lived and died, found himself
burdened by debt and pressed down by i'll
health, being barely able to gain living in
the old way on the old homestead. He found
that he must abandon his paternal acres, or
resort to new practices, and cultivate more
remunerative crops. He decided to adopt
the latter course, and commenced the cultiva-
tion of the grape and the peach. Giving his
son, at the age of twenty.one, an interest in
the estate, they carried on the farm, under
improved culture, in company. The result
was, in brief, that they soon began to see an
improvement in their financial standing, and
to gain reputation for their excellent fruit.
They now have about six acres in their vine
yards, mostly of Concord, Hartford and Del
aware grapes, and some three acres of peach
es OF several popular varieties. Within few
years past they have greatly improved their
farm and their buildings, materially reduced
their indebtedness, and enjoyed the product
of their labor. Instead of no income fir ON
the farm they now receive liberal reward.
These eight or ten acres, appropriated to these
fruits, in good years, bring then profit that
is counted by hundreds of dollars. Their ex-
ample has been followed by other farmers of
Mason and vicinity, until many hillsides,
once unproductive, have become the most
profitable portion of their farms.-N. III.

Our Receip, for Making saur.Kraut

The best we ever ate we made ourselves
and have done SO for many years, and for
considerable time with our own hands, and
always from Savoy cabbage 1t was manu-
featured in this wise: In the first place let
your "stand," holding from half barrel to
barrel. be thoroughly scalded out; the cutter,
the tub, and the stamper also well scalded.
Take off all the outer leaves of the cabbages,
halve them, and remove the heart and pro-
ceed with the cutting. Lay some clean leaves
at the bottom of the stand, sprinkle with
handful of salt, fill in half bushel of cut cab
bage, stamp gently until the juice just makes
its appearance, then add another handful of
salt, and so on until the stand is full. Cover
over with cabbage leaves, place on top clean
board fitting the space pretty well, and on top
of that a stone weighing twelve or fifteen
pounds. Stand away in cool place, and
when hard freezing comes ON remove to the
cellar. 1t will be ready for use in from four TO
six weeks. The cabbage should cut tolerably
coarse. The Savoy variety makes the best
article, but it is only half as productive as the
Drumhead and Flat Dutch.
We will just add that there is no dish more
wholesome than well-made sauer-kraut, but
it should always be be boiled-and well boiled
with piece of picked pork OR corned beef

Selling Milk.

Few farmers seem to realize the fact that
constantly feeding milch COWS on a farm will
impoverish the soil. Almost any intelligent
man will admit at once that if he raises 25
bushels Of wheat to the acre, be must return
some fertilizer TO the soil which will replace
the elements that the wheat has removed. If
we MAKE chemical examination of the ash
OF the grain of wheat, we find it to be COM
posed of the folio wing ingredients in the
given proportions:

The Arizona sentinel., 1876-12-23

AS anticipated in THE CITIZEN
last week, the visit of Col. James
M. Barney, Messrs. Phillips,
Swain, Williams and Reagan to
the Silver King, resulted in the
purchase of Charles Mason's half
of the mine, by Col. Barney las
we are informed) for 100000 gold
coin, Mr.. Mason reserving his in
terest in the, ore now in transit to
San Francisco, which is estimated
worth about 100000, making a
cleanup Of about 100000 in gold
coin for the seller. This seems
like a large sum to pay for half a
mine, and yet we are assured that
the purchaser has grand bargain.
The ore in sight is said to insure
this. We have reason to believe
that the sale will result in an early
construction of large and rightly
adapted reduction works, and that
the mining will be done in the
best possible manner and on an
enlarged scale. The receipts of
ore-hOwever rich-in San Fran
cisco from Arizona, cannot have
as valuable influence as receipts of
hundreds of thousands of dollars
in silver bricks. The Territory
gets no credit in the matter of sill.
YER production for shipments of
ore, but it will for refined silver.
This sale can but stimulate delop
ment in the Territory and in many
ways exert a rich inhuence.-C5
zen Dec. 1911.

Sic Transit Gloria Mundi.

The annual Feast Of the elm
maculate Conception" is done.
1t is played-out, defunct and ter
minated. It was a poor show, and
but for the presence of a few Ame-
ricans. in the shape of Ben Woods,
Ben Jones and q few others, it
would have been altogether a mi
SCRABBLE fizzle. These feasts' only
attract sensible and cultivated peo-
pie by their grotesqueness, and
the grotesqueness here exhibited
was far gone relic of barbarism.
Such scenes are fast passing away
before the advancing light of civil
Iization and refinement, and will
soon be known no more.

Newly Discovered Gold Field.

Mr.. 81. F. Morrill, of the eastern
mail and stage line, informs us
that discoveries Of gold lquartz
have been made at the foot of the
Dos Cabesos Peaks about twelve
miles north of Apache Pass and
between the military Camps of
Bowie and Grant, and a little over
one hundred miles east.of Tucson.
He has built stage station right
on the ground at Ewell Springs.
He says & number of claims have
been taken up and some of the
miners are making Sc TO So per
day by hand process. The gold
is free and is readily washed out
Of the quartz when pulvelized.
The quartz 50 far as tested is worth
from 800 and upwards a ton. A
man from Silver City offered $1,000
for one claim but could 5not get it
at that price.
Mr.. Morrill, says the people there
are much pleased with their pros.
poets. There is water enough for
one moderate sized stamp. mill.
The mountains north and south
have plenty Of timber and the
whole country is covered with
grass. Now that all that section
and range Of mountains are declar-
ed public domain, th ere is nothing
to hinder people from occupying
the same, unless it be the renaga-
de Chiricahua Apaches, and they
surely cannot be feared at and near
this discovery of mines, for Camp
Bowie is only about a dozen miles
to the south and Camp Grant not
above thirty-fve or forty to thel
north.-Citizen Dec. rs.
