The Lesson That Farmers Should Learn from
Figures About Gains in PrOductiOn-Fa-

The report of State Statistician Peelle is about
ready for the printer. The figures it will con-
tain have been prepared with unusual care. and
the volume will comprise much valuable infor-
nation. The most interesting table is the one
relating to the yield of corn and wheat. The OBJ
ject of the table, the Statistican states, is two
fold; first. to show the yield of corn, wheat and
oats from 1880 to 1884. and second. the increase
or decrease of the product during the period

land upon which the cereals were raised had the
same amount of rest or alternate crops and that
the same agencies were employed to make the
land productive in each year. The tables pre-

FLAGSTAFF TO THE FRONT.
The Mineral Belt Railroad to be Built Work to Begin Next Week at
 Flagstaff.

The Silver Belt, of Globe, publishes a letter from Col. J. w. Eddy, the promoter ofthe scheme, dated Boston June 22, 1886, to A. C. Pendleton, Esq, the civil engineer ot the road saying, he has sold enough bonds to build from Flagstaff to Globe, and the balance of the bonds are in strong financial hands; the work on the first seventy-fve, including ties, has been let to parties who will take bonds in part pay; there may be opportunities for sub-contracting; he will be in Flagstaff July nth, accompanied by Gen. Mcdonnell, who will attend to getting the "plant" in readiness at Flagstaff; the railroad companies have subscribed sSoo,ooo.
 This confirms the news we received from gentleman who was in New York short time ago, that Col. Eddy told hlm that over $500, 900 worth of The Mineral Belt railroad bonds had been sold already and that he expected 10 sell the remainder, S7oo, 900 in few days, which will make the sum total, that is estimated as necess. ary to construct the first 75 miles of track from Flagstaff to Globe.
 This is indeed good news, not only to our people, but also to the citizens of Tonto Basin and Globe. The con- struction of this road means prosper ous times for Flagstaff and its neigh bors. The products of the farm, the dairy, the stock ranch, the mine and the immense forests of pire and fir will find ready sale at good figures.
 The building of this road will make Flagstaff, whose climate and resources are unsurpassed by any town in Ari. zona. the largest and most prosperous one on the line of the Atlantic & Pacific Railroad,

ON TO MEXICO.

There are no new ranges to develop in Texas, Arizona or New Mexico, while the territories still further north and west have all the stock that the natural grass will feed with safety, and the Texas man with many cattle and few acres is beginning to realize that Old Mexico is to be his future outlet for surplus young stock. x
 The foregoing is from the Stock Growers Journal, published at Miles City, Montana. We beg leave to take issue with the Journal on this state ment so far as stock ranges in Arizona are concerned, and especially in the northern portion of our territory. There is no better stock country which the sun shines upon than that in and around Flagstaff tor radius of 6o miles. Grass in abundance, and notwithstanding the dry season, no complaints are heard from any of our stoCkmen as to a dearth of water. Large ranges are for sale and can be obtained at reasonable figures by those who desire to purchase. In the fast two months several eastern gen tlemen have invested largely in both lands and cattle here, and we know that they are perfectly satisfied with their purchases. Cattle brought here from abroad in poor condition, in a months time show the effect of the change in their sleek and ia: appear ance, and all on account of the supe- rior grazing to be found on our moun- tain sides and valleys. Where then is the necessity of going to Old Mex lco, in order to find suitable ranges?

I N calling attention to the merits of l this superb wagon We do not propose to echo the commonplace claims so characteristic of "cheap' work. A few facts peculiar to the Schuttler wagon alone, will sufficient. ly speak for themselves.
 The manufacturers make their own hubs, spokes, felloes, nuts, bolts, riv- cts, and all other parts from the raw materials, and hence are enabled to begin their unparalleled system o selection from the very start, the work thereupon being followed through it, successive stages by the most rigid series of inspections known in the business.
 The wood material is always kept four 10 five years ahead ot all require mentS.
 The hubs are made from the butt cuts of the finest white oak in the country, the butts being quartered and each quarter making hub, the "heart' of the tree being rejected in all cases. They are then roughly turned, and after four years of natural seasoning under cover, they are ready for the final turning and mortising which prepares them for the wheel
 Il the minor processes, on which mary makers often place rather re, diculous emphasis-such as driving the spokes in hot glue, the boiling oil bath, etc., etc.-have been employed for many years, and are simply ordin- dry necessities.
 The Schuttler Wagon has been built expressly for the trying climate of the West. and the rough usage oi the mountains, for over forty years, and in consequecce of the special ex- perience thus achieved, as we'll as the unrivaled care best owed upol..its work manship and finish it stands supreme and without rival among wagons. II gives better value in return for the money paid out than any other known. The user gets his moneys wor tn, be, sides the saving in time, temper, trou- ble, and repalr bills, and the dealer has equal reason to be pleased with a wagon that gives him no annoyance after 1t leaves his store.
