The Poor Arizona Farmer.

On L. H. Orme's ranch, ten miles west of town, the harvest is over and the grain threshed and stored He has 630 acres in wheat and barley, mostly in the former grain, and the crop, though much below the average of last year, averages, barley, 2,300 pounds, and wheat 1,700 pounds to the acre. These figures are exact. Wheat is worth $140 delivered to the buyer at the ranch and there is mar ket for all and more than has been raised this year. At 1700 pounds to the acre each acre has paid $23.80, at an expense of about one third of this amount-so MT Orme informs the re- porter. But the land has not finish ed paying yet, for MT. Orme has l POO head of hogs that are now turned in on the stubble, where they will feed until November, when they will sell as well as if they had been fed on corn for four months. AS every one knows this has been rather an off year on cereal crops, yet it occurs to us that there are twoor three farmers sprink- led around through the east, who have not done so well as that this year.

Arizona Ostriches.

The ostriches expected by NJ. E. Clanton duly arrived by train Saturday evening, and are now enjoying the country air and sweet alfalfa in large enclosure at the Fiesta grounds. To one seeing them for the first time they certainly are most curious and novel sight, the numerous pictures which everyone has seen, giving no idea whatever of the reality. They have a precise, mincing gait, and an imitation of girl with the Grecian Bend, which is extremly ludicrous. There are six teen in all, two of them, a male and female, full grown. These latter, the parents of the brood, came from Africa. MT. Clanton says they are hardy, though in California the young are difficult to raise, until two months old. This is no doubt on account of the damp weather, and Mr. c. is positive that he will have no such difficulty here. We wish the enterprising gentleman good luck, for he has added another re- source to our valley and every such addition increases our wealth.-Phenix Herald.

 Good Mines.

CASA GRANDE, A. T.-Many good and excellent properties are frequently unmentioned in public, inasmuch as their owners are indifferent as to pub lie notoriety. The Vekol has made a great name here for years. but if there is silver property coming rapidly to the front with splendid chance of eclipsing it, that property is the South ern Pacific in the Casa Grande dis trict, near the railroad of the same name. It is a rich carbonate and chloride ore, and in addition to it's splendid shipping record of silver ores has large tonnage of silver ores in sight in shafts. It is the equal of the Vekol, and short time since over lures were made from the proprietors of said mine for the purchase of the Southern Pacific, but the price was placed beyond his reach.
