An Old white Plner 4ardered In
Arizona.

AEHA8mAs
The following, from the st. Johns
(Arizona) Democract, give the details
of the murder OF a former we'll
known resident of this county. Mr..
David Blanchard was q pioneer
of White Pine, and at different times
within the past eight years was en-
gagged in business at Duck Creek,
Ward and Hunter. A great many of
his old friends in this section will re-
gret to hear of his sad fate /:
On the 10th day Of August. Joseph Walters
and William Campbell murdered David
Blanchard. merchant at Washington Station.
in this county. and Jay Barret, q young man
in the employ OF Mr.. Blanchard. james d.
Hauck. also doing business on the road about
four miles above, started after the murderers,
accompanied by five Navajo Indians: Mr..
Hauck and party trailed the fugitiyes nearly
to the Zuni Pueblo and n heavy rainstorm
coming on they lost the trail. AS soon as the
news reached Saint j ohns. being four days
after the murder was eommitted,) our Sheriff.
Mr.. Z. s. Slower. at once made preparations
to effect the capture of the criminals; he sent
out parties in various directions. and on his
own responsibility offered 4 reward of $500
reward for the arrest and delivery to him at
ST. John of the two criminals. or $50 for
either one of them. 1t must be borne in
mind that the murders werc committed 100
miles from this. place, aud the marderers had
a very large scope Of uninhabited country
through which to travel. in their attempt to
elude justice. But through the efforts of Col.
Slower, our Sheriff, the two murderers were
captured and lodged in Jail on the first of this
month. The little party that captured the
two murderers were Joss Navarres. Ncrefor
Frjillo and Frederieo Jean, who followed
them through the mountains. and overhanled
them near Sorocco, New Mexico. and know
ing about red tape requisition business, they
arrested the two men and brought them back
to this Territory. II this numbering and
stealing continues much longer j Judge Lynch
will be brought into requisition, and muir
dercrs and horse thieves will then under
place to ply their Unlawful practices.

dered men. was an old gray-headed man and

Potatoes for Animals.

A WRITER upon this subject has said
that "potatoes in the raw state ought
never to be given to any animal, with
the exception of sheep and geese" It
is said ga goose will thrive better, and
the flesh will be more gratefully flaw
ored, upon raw potatoes, sliced, than
upon any other article; while sheep
will more speedily thrive on raw
potatoes than on turnips; but, and
especially in the beginning, raw
potatoes will scour cattle and
horses, and not unfrequently cause
death, while there is no danger of
either from boiled or steamed potatoes"
1t may be true that they are excellent
for geese, and that they are excellent
for sheep. is well known; of all animals
the sheep likes change from dry to
green food in the shape of roots; and
that they should thrive upon them bet
ter than the turnip, for the reason that,
according to tables, the potato contains
a larger fat substance and fesh-pr0-
ducing element than the turnip. Thus
a fair product is 200 bushels, or 10000
pounds, of potatoes from an acre, which
are estimated to contain 2,64O pounds
OF material for the animal system, while
the average yield of rutabasas of 20 900
pounds contains only LAO pounds: and
similar yield OF turnips but 1,4OO
pounds; so that relatively to each other
they stand as, potatoes 2,64O, rutaba-
gas I, 44O, and the turnip $40, a little bet
ter than a third the relative feeding
value.
The chief advantage is obtained in
feeding to mature animals; if bony
structure is to be formed, the turnip is
fully equal to the potato. That an ex-
cess of potatoes fed to cattle and horses
produces i'll results cannot be doubted,
If the diet was exclusively potatoes; but
that small quantity, fed with dry hay,
produces in furious results is insuppos-
able. The boiling or steaming, which
generally means an addition of more or
less mild feed, would be much more
satisfactory. The same writer also
says: ''Pigs will not always eat, and
never can be fattened upon, raw pota-
toes, while, if they are boiled, next to
boiled pease, perhaps, they will bring
them to the greatest weight they are
capable of attaining, and to greater per-
lection than anything else that may be
continuously used with safety, admit
ting that three to four weeks feeding
upon corn, oats or barley is necessary
to make the pork firm and impart
favor
This is directly contrary to the expe-
rience of a successful pork-raiser that
always estimated the value of potatoes
as four bushels to one of corn, and al
ways fed them raw, for the reason that
he obtained more satisfactory results.
Boil several bushels of potatoes, and at
the same time mix bushel of corn
meal. and you make a very satisfactory
feed for pork-Erchanqe.
