The amount of bacon consumed in Arizona is something enormous. It does not fall much, if any, below two and a quarter million pounds per annum. This includes hams, which we count as. bacon for convenience sake. To produce this amount of hog meat it requires the slaughter of $500 animals that dress an average of 260 pounds each. There are raised within the Territory an aggregate of one-quarter to one third this number, the most of which are killed for butchers meat, and sold fresh from the block, leaving the bacon supply to come from the East and West. At an average of 15 cents a pound whole sale, this bacon costs S337 500, to which must be added the freight, which will average 2 cents per pound-S56,2 ,250, making a total of S394,850. This Is large amount of money to send out of the Territor! every year when it could just as well be kept here. Salt River valley could produce this bacon, with ten times more, if demanded. Her fields of alfalfa, with the wheat and barley stubble to harden the flesh upon, are ample to produce all that we demand, aud will, no doubt, at DO distant day. -Phenix Gazette.

Fricke's opera house never appeared SO
small. During the entire evening not
the slightest thing occurred to mar the
pleasures of the occasion, and everyone
appeared to enjoy themselves to the
very fullest measure. 1t must have
been source of considerable gratitica-
ton to Captain Hutchins to note the
manner in which bis friends turned out
to greet and congratulate him, and
welcome his charming bride to our
midst and in after years will doubt
less be chief among the many pleasant
memories Of the present period in his
history.
