and q dozen other farm-houses, all surrounded by nice farms. Our next stopping place was at Ross R. Rog
 c.s'. In repeating that Mir. Rogers
 had a nice farm would be only say ing what could be said of every place
 in the Valley. but the principal
 feature of the placcis the orchard
 and garden, Enclosed with a ca jon fence is his residence, stable,
 corral, orchard and garden. He has quite q number of heads of bIooded stock. His orchard contains twenty different varietios of fruit,consisting, in part, of peaches, apricot=, plums, pears, German prunes, crab-apples, cherries and strawberries. In his
 garden we saw some nice luscious tomatoes. lie also has in some Louisiana ribbon sugar cane, and some of the Sandwich cane lately distributed by the HERALD. It getting late in the day we made a much shorter stay than we wished for. Continuing our trip down the valley, we crossed the Tempe ditch twice, and found it running full of water, allowing everybody plenty to irrigate with. We reached Hayden's
 Ferry again, at , o'clock, just too late 10 witness
 THE MARRIAGE CEREMONY
 Between Mir. Martin and Miss Mary Hardwick' NIr. Hayden has been in Arizona twenty-two years, the seven last past being spent at the ford on Salt River that bears his name, He occupies about GAO acres, 300 of which is in wheat, 50 in alfalfa, and the balance is occu- pied by his flour mill, residence, or chard, store, buicher-shcp, stable, corral and blacksmith shop. His mill is run by water power, the water having a fall of twenty-five feet. The mill now has two run of stone, and runs night and day. seven days in the week. and turns out 300,GO0 pounds per month. His flour is well known, bears an ex- cellcnt reputation, and, at present, the supply is not up to the demand. He is adding two more run of stone, and other late and improved mill machinery. The number of distinct pieces of new machinery number fourteen, and will bring the mill up to standard enjoyed by the best mills on the Pacific Coast His residence is large, cool and com fortable, and I very excellent addi- ton is pipes running through the h 0uSe conveying water, which Is dis tributed at the various places by hy- drants; this feature is also carried out in the blacksmith shop, store and stable His orchard is the finest thing of its kind ia the country. It is about ten acres in extent, sur rounded Jy fence. Mr. Hayden wishes to secure the services of an Al gardener and wife. In the front of the orchard are q dozen orange trees, over half of them having green fruit on them. Some lemon trees are growing next to the orange Mr- Hayden is confident that his oranges will be great success. Next Ie come to fig trees just loaded down with fruit just ripening; then come cherries, pomegranates, and on into the vineyord. Here is to be found almost every variety, all loaded down with partially ripe fruit, but among which we find enongh ripe to get a feed. We again returned, and after a pleasant chat with his estimablc wife, we started about dusk for town, which in proper time was reached, well satisfied with our pleasant day in the garden spot of Arizona.

BuSY-HodieS.
DEs MONIES, IOWA, June 2S, 1880.


 EDITOR HERALD: l have been an interested reader of your paper for the last eighteen months, and have cut thcrefrom many items of histori- cal value, which put in my scrap book (N. B.-I always give proper credit) This morning I read the article of P. C. B. on "Busy-Bodics." ," He recommends Lycurgus' @ cure, viz: cutting out the tongue, saying this would tend to purify the society of to day.
 Mistaken man-of coulse a woman would not advocate anything at once so cruel and impracticable. Do you not know that if a buSy-bOdy's tongue were taken from him, he would still find means to cOmmuni- cate his thoughts and feelings? Have you forgotten the sign language? :? Think of an uneducated American in France or Germany; would he not struggle to be understood by signs, especially if he wanted something to eat? Do you not suppose the scan dal-monger, hungry for the sweet mOrscl, would find way to get it? Have you forgotten that where there is will there is way? Even if you dId not listen to hIm, lie would make faces and signs, and make you see, if you did not hear. Now, please let me suggest a remedy. Teach your gossip that self-respect tha; scorns to meddle with the affairs of others; teach him that our living and our strength are, or should be meas urcd by the amount of friction we encounter, and the resistance we overcome. Create in him desire for something noblcr and better; teach him that not by faith alone, but bv works shall he gain the kingdom "The proper study of mankind is man. Study your gossip, and do a nlissionary's work by kindly sug. gesting to him or her, the sgood he or sine can do by starting d reading club, Sunday school, ! library or some other geod work that will call out the good there is ill them, and when once started on the right way encourage them and help them.
 Tie love of scandal is a dreadful. a terrible disease, but as the more enlightened physicians of to-day dis card the heroic treatment of physical ills, SO the reformcrs of to-day must not apply the torch or thumbscrew to exercise moral disease.
 Your remedy reminds one of the days of the ReforiNation when Cal win the Heretic burned Scrvetus at the stake for hercsy. Said the Syn die who lead hIm (Servetus) to the pyrc, "Say, Jesus, Thou Eternal Son of God,' and Servetus replied, Jesus, Thou Son of the Eternal God" and died the horrible death. Though we are blessed with q more advanced civilization, yet human nature is much the same-we all have one common Father. ZETA.

COST OF RAISING WHEAT.

The Walla WaiIa Watchman answers frequently asked ques- tion-the cost of raising wheat in their great valley, as follows: It costs about sI.9O per acre to blow, SOW and seed; SI.25 to cat and head, and about : cents per bushel to thresh and sack it; this includes wages, board of hired help, and horse feed. A header usually works up from 15 to 20 acres, and tLreshers, with good machinery, clean up from 2,OO0 to 5000 bushels per day. Harvest hands receive from 8 to s per day, and board. The yield this year is larger and Leayier than usual, and ranges all the way from 25 to 60 bushels to the acre. Wheat, according to the above fig  urcs, can be raised and sacked for 24 cents bushel, or 40 cents per cental. An estimate made last April, and published in the HERALD by one of our best farmers, showed it to cost on a farm yielding 2OO0 pounds, or B 1-3 bushels, 70 1-2 cents per cental. Will some Of our farmers make a similar estimate of the cost of raising a ccntal of this years crop in this valley. We should like to have 2 comparison of the cost between here and the extreme north made.

NJ. II. Sherman, Esq, Superinten- dent of Schools in Arizona, has been spending a few days ill this section in pursuance of the duties of his office. MT. Sherman is one of the most capable and efficient officers the Territory possesses, his culture, training and natural taste conspiring to render him eminently fit for the peculiar duties that devolvc upon him. As an educator of the young he has few equals in the west, his success as principal of the High School at Prescott being the highest encomium that could be passed upon him. His knowledge of the practical work of the schOol-roOm and the earnestness of his desire to advance the interests of education generally throughout Arizona are the prime causes of | is popularity Tn his posi- ton. It is probable that NIT. Sher- man will be a candidate for re-elec- ton this fall, and as the office is one that is not generally considered poll. tical in it's character, he will prove a formidable opponent to the Demo- cratic nominee.-Silver Nugget.
