HOW Wen would Do It.
Helen F. Stalreit.1


 Could anything be a better illustration of the way women do their work as com pared with the way men do theirs, than 10 look over village of, say. a thousand fImi- ies, on a Monday morning. In thousand little kitchens a thousand women would be seen thrusting wood into a thousand little cook stoves. heating a thousand little wash-boilers. bending their bucks over thousand little Tash-boards. and hanging their clothes on a thousand clothes-lines. If, by some singular social revolution, the men Of such a village were to undertake to do the same work. their very first step wolld be to get up a stock company, invest capital in building and machinery, so organize the work that about half dozen men would do the work for the whole town, receive good salaries therefor, and the rest of the men would go about their own business on Monday, just as on other days

TaffIe Sales.

Advices from sonora report but few sales of cattle for the Ar zons market. Within the past six months not q single brand has changed hands, the sales such as they were, being confined mostly 10 punches of cattle varying in numbers from twenty to fifty. The light sales are attributed to the late dry summer in Arizona, which forbade a further stocking Of the ranches. In prices Of cattle. however, there Is no percept- lble change, some going for their full value, while an odd lot now and then were sold cheap. A revival in the trade IS expected, nasmuch as there are many new beginners in the business who are preparing their ranges for the put tIng on of stock. most of which IS ex- edpect to come from Sonora.
