There have been planted nearly a thousand fruit trees, fifteen hundred grapevines and some eight hundred shade and ornamental trees. The "lovers' lane" a thousand feet in length. is composed of two rows If eucalyptus, with here and there a rustic seat for the weary, lends pecI- liar enchantment to the scene.

DUTY oF wArER IN ARIzoNA.

In Salt river valley when irrigation Is carried on to a greater extent than m any other portion of the territory We have the following exhibit:
 Two acres t8 one miners inch of water or about seventy-six acres to a discharge of one cubic foot per second In com parison of water duties, lt IS uece saFy to point out one natural cause of varla- tion in tue statements given by ditfr. ent authorities. Many writers estimate the duty Of water on the basis of the t0.al quantity flowing in the canals at their intake, without making any allowance for filtration and evaporation ID the fields to be irrigated. Other authorities state tbe result of experiments on water duty | from measurements taken immediately at the fields irrigated.
 As there Is abundance of water in the | Glla river the los in transit tO the lands | to be irrigated can D. made up by let | ting in more water at the head of the canal.
 | Making our estimate upon the bAsis O. 300 cubic feet of water per Hecond
 equal Co 1 i1,4O1 miners Iuchesl the max mum capacity wEen completed with dam as heretofore indicated. the GIla Bend canal will irrcate 22SHO acres oi land TLc sales Cf this amount of water at $500 per miner' inci. or SLjO per acre. the ave age rate established Iu | Salt river valley, wculd produce au an- nual income oC S3i, 200.
 The amount of land that comes under the canal now partially completed t) Its terminus l3 miles from the head, i' shown by the plat tO Ee over ten thOu
  derived from irrigatiug ten thousana acres at Sl.jO per acre would be Sl5.Og and the canal would be used to less thar one Ialf its ca pacIty. To Iu1reEse th, income from the canal to the M Xlmuu by utilizing the water Co che fun eXteu of it's capacity it will have Co be extend cd further down the valley of the Gila
 Such is the character of The csuutr! that 1t will be entirely practicable io ex tend the canal to near the railroad O. even across It. and the quantity of Ian, available for irrigation is greater thai the canal can supply with water evel when used at its greatest capacity. Even to the limited extent. and unde
 the discOuraging circum>tances that 1T rigGtion is now practlsed ID Arizona. ey cry well constructed canal, has provel
 highly profitable to the owners and 1T rigators as well as a boon 10 the terri

Certainly no butcher shop il this city. is better known than that O. Wm. ohouldcrer.oa Congress street adj joining the alley, next Co the residence of Wm. c. Davis. There has been a display of meat ID that particular corner of the old Fitzpatrick building SO long back ts the CITIZEN reporter dates his experience in Arizona. Itis one of those places Of business which beIng long established l. known to the oldest inLabitaut.' The proprietor Os this shop is one of the earliest Tisers m Tucson. And tlis re- minds the writer of a little incident that occurred hardly a week ago. The break of day was hardly noticeable. The air was chilly, and the feelings of the aver age d0me' tic man were not those cf the millionaire. The reporter m passing through Pennington street. heard thls remark from a SIX year old yOungster, addressed C. his father:
 "But father let's waitr
 There is no use, my son" was the an- swer, "I must be at work in sn hour, and know Shoulderer. one of the most obliging men in the world, has hrs place open now. Anyhow you run around and see. If l can't get his meat I will go without my breakfast, and wat until dinner. when 1 am sure I will have one of ShOulderer's best rOasts"
 The little fellow scampered around to Shoulderer's place, and sure enough 1t was open and the youngster hurried home with one of the best beefsteaks the market affords.
 In fact. this caterer to the public palate, besides having one of tbe most centrally located shops ln Tucson, keeps -as large and fresh an assortment of meats in his line as found in the Terri tory. He is constantly buying from the best ranges in the country, and only kills the fattest of cattle. The house keeper will also always find such wild game, as deer, mountain sheep, and sometimes bear. at h-s shop.

It hss been remarked very often oi late how cheap fruit and general farm produce were here, in comparison with the high prices for transportation and the likelihood of such merchandise per ishirg before reaching Tucson, Those sorts of losses being sustained b. the .consigGees. The answer is simple. I. is competitionl That always produces low prices and small gains, and no firm in this city has been more prominently identified with this glorious result than the old established house of G. Allison < Sons, at 122 Congress street. Their store runs back to Church plaza, and it contains, besides a full stock of canned and dried fruits and vegetables. always an abundant stock of grain and fresh fruits.

The Soap Factory.

Las July J. NJ. Kinley came here from Yuma and established a soap factory on South Main street near FIsh's flour mill. The factory has es- sayed to turn out nothing but laundry soap. and has a capacity of 5000 pounds per week, enough to supply the present field. The soap is for sale in all the leading groceries, and has the reputation of being a frst-clsss article. as 1t does indeed do first-cIass work. In time. if trade demands, the finer soaps and washes will be manufactured.

Davis effected the sale of the Quiiotoa bonanza mines Iast December he sold his est4blisbment to Messrs. Stevens X Hughes. As soon ss the change could be made. which took several weeks to make, on account of the taking an account Of the immense stock each house carried, both stores were consolidated under one roof. and to-iay the new firm undoubtedly has the Ia ,e,est stock in the tin, stove and hardware fine of any firm in the Territory.

Mines in Mexico.

 In the State of Chihc alma Ioxi.,o companies or individuals investing ss
 much as S100,OOO in one or more mines that have been abandoned for over a year are exempt from taxation for six years from the time they begin beneici- atiOn of ores.
 Justices of the peace in the principal towns of this State are also authorized to award possession of mines.
 Mining is regarded as the chief indus try of Mexico. Every encouragement and security is given by the government to both prOspector and worker of mines. The mining property Is held responsible for the wages of the employee, and he held to an equally strict account in his duty tO hls employer. That foreigners have the same rights and privileges as natives in mines is well settled. There Is but one rsstrictlon-a foreigner can not denounce a mine within 20 leagues of the United States border Mining machinery of all sorts enters Mexico free of duty.
