Buy Real Estate.

If holders who have town lots for sale in Tucson, Florence or Phenix, would advertise their property at ad- vantageous prices, we believe they would find considerable sale. There is much activity in real estate in Tue son and Florence, and we hear more or less inquiry concerning property in PheniX Florence probably takes the lead at present and the sale of lots in that town and adjacent thereto is rep resented to be giite lively Quite a number of lots in Wheat's addition to Florence have been purchased by resi- dents of Tucson within week or two past at respectable figures. People ar gue yariously that Florence from its past history Is destined to be one of those mercurially thrifty towns winch seem born to the good luck of draw ing railroads. mining and agricultural trade and everything else towards them as a center. But there are many here who, while mol envious Of For ence, still rest their faith and hope in Tucson taking the lead in ultimate prosperity, and these are quietly put ting their dollars in town lots here from tune to time as occasion offers. We believe any purchase of real estate in middle and southern Arizona at this time, is a safe speculation. And it be ing safe, there is much comfort in the possession of piece of Gods earth It makes a man more of a man and a better citizen.

Increase of stock Uereabouss.

Any one familiar with Pima County adjacent to Tucson, and who has occa- sion to move around 10 any extent, will be surprised at the steady and rapid in crease of cattle and stock in the val leys. In parts where few years ago he would travel many miles without seeing a head of stock h will now find cattle scattered at comparatively small intervals, from a few head to consider able herds. They say that many years ago all these valleys and pia ns were teeming with cattle, but when the A pa- che s'arted on his long career of deyas- tatirn auc revenge, the herds melted and disappeared like the snow before the sun The mezqurte forests and the rIver bottom, and the mountain glcns lost their lowing inhabitants and be came silent and desola,e. But the kline know their natural home. and the hand of the destroyer having been with drawn, the herds are slowly but surely returning to OUT rich and bounlless pastures.

This report will be probably more elaborate presentation of the view upon that subject which he took, in an essay delivered last April, before the Nation al Academy of Sciences. POweli's con- clusions seem to be arbitrary, and give an extreme view of the case, although he presents many facts and figures.

 EDITOR CITIZEN: When not many months ago, the people of Southern Arizona charged, through your col umns and those of The Arizona Senti- mel, that the census of Yayapai county was grossly exaggerated, and that the supervisors thereof had criminally ap- proved the same. the Prescott organ of the fraud, rushed valiantly 10 the de- Gense and filled is columns with vilifi- cation of the people of Pima county, and with vehement assertions that the census was honest and fairly taken. By that census Prescott was given a population of $500. In the weekly edition of the organ, for August r, 1877, is found, smuggled away in the local intelligence, this interesting par agraph:
 New York city has one lawyer to every $50 of her population Prescott has about 1900 inhabitants and over twenty gentlemen of legal profession who practice in the different courts.

the child for moment escaped their sight

was found in the turbid contents of the barrel,

What to Eat in Summer.

DR.. w. Vail publishes on article
on summer diet, and makes the fol-
lowing argument:
"God, IN his providence, has stock
ed the polar regions with the seal,
the whale and the bear; all the per-
sonifcation of fat and oil-while
Vegetation is comparatively un-
known. On the other hand, az you
approach the tropics, oranges, ban
anas, lemons, and all our luscious
fruits greet you on every hand, and
Vegetation runs wild. This DISPOSE
ton of Providence teaches US
what our appetites eonfrm-that in
cold weather our diet should consist
mainly of oily substances or such
food as is converted into fat by the
process of digestion; while in the
summer we should select such artic-
les of diet as are not convertible in
to fat" DIR. Vail adds that vegita-
ton, the edible parts of which ripen
underground, such as potatoes, carr
rots and parsnips, are heat produce
ing, while those that ripen above
ground are cooling. The latter, in
Guiding especially asparagus, lettuce,
peas, beans, tomatoes, corn and all
fruits, should be freely eaten. Meat
should not be eaten oftener than
twice day, and lean 10 preferable.
He particularly recommends tomas
toes.
