FARM AND GARDEN.
YAVAPAI:

As the Spring is now opening it behooves our citizens who wish to make their homes attractive and pleasant, to take advantage of the propitious season to set out trees. shrubbery, flowers, etc, that which costs so little, but makes "Home" so sweet. The climate of Prescott does not admit of the culture of tropical plants, but the hardicr va rieties can be grown here very well. We see an earnest disposition dem- onstrated by quite a number of our ladies to beautify their homes and have, each for themselves and those who are most dear to them, little paradise in which to live, shut off from the outside world, to feast upon their own pure thoughts, sur rounded by the most lovable of na- ture. No home should be without fowers.-lMiner.
 FINAL:
 The supply of fat beef is increas- ing. The recent rains have given us an abundance of fresh grass on every hillside; sheep, cattle and stock of every description, find hearty food near our town. The result of short drives. long hours to eat, is a rapid increase in the avordupois of our beef steers.-T Citizen.
 PIMA:
 P. M. Hilton is in from his stock ranch; he reports his sheep in splen- did condition; he will have about l7,0OO pounds of fine merino wool; will commence shearing in a few days. The McGary Bros. are all ready shearing their large heard. MT. Hilton says the country south is one grand plain of pasture for miles in all directions and that mil lions of stock could feed, and yet there would be plenty left. The favorable rains this season are bringing forth an hundred fold in every quarter of this county Star. D. G. Sanford came in on the Sth from the Sonoita valley. Farm CTS all busy, grain well advanced; he has eighty acres of barley and fifty of wheat all in splendid condition, from which he expects to reap a rich harvest-[Star.
 From every section of the county
 7 we have the encouraging news of abundant grain harvest in prospect. Pueblo Viejo Valley, is rich and luxurient in grain fields. There will be not less than 3,o0O,OOO pounds of wheat and barley, and prob ably 1,5OO,OO0 of com this season. So much has that section been fav- ored with rains, the people are plant ing large quantities Of vegetables, all of which will find ready market in the mining distriets.-TStar.

Sir-Your letter of the fifteenth of February
last was duly received In which you transmit
ted the appeal (7289e) of II. Clostermann from
your assessment of a duty of fifty cents per
pound and 80 per cent I'D valOrem on certain
dolls and toys made In part of wool, mported
per Nurnburg" December II, 1877, claimed by
the appellants to he dutiable at the rate of 30
per cent and 80 per cent respectively.
The appraiser reports that the dolls are
dressed in wool apparel, and that the toys are
covered with wool: and that, in accordance
with his usual practice. the articles were classi-
fed for duty as
MANUFACTURES OF WOOL
not otherwise provided for.
An examination of the samples submitted
shows that the toys are covered with sheepskin
with the wool on, and that they contain no
manufactured wool whatever.
In view of this fact the department is Of opin-
ion that they should be classified at a duty Of 80
per cent ad valorem. as claimed by the appel
lants.
By the decisions tt72b> OF November 20. 1873
and (237e Of August s. 1875. the dolls In question.
being commercially known as such, would ap
pear to be properly chargeable with duty as
dolls at the rate of 35 per cent. ad valorem. I'M
der the special provisions therefor In Schedule
M. Upon reference Of the samples to the col
lector at the port OF New York. it Is ascertained
that duty Of 50 per cent.

at that port on similar dolls
You will therefore readiust the entry accord
