Gould and the West.

The Chronicle says: "Wager
Swayne, chief counsel for the Gould
system of railroads, left with his son
for Santa Cruz yesterday evening.
The object of the gentleman's visit to
this coast is ostensibly only rest and
recreation. 1t is fact, however, that
he spent considerable time looking
over the Rio Grande Western lines
between Denver and Salt Lake, and
as Gould is said to have his eye on
the road, railroad men here have come
to the conclusion that Gould pro
poses adding to his present system
100 miles, just sufficient to bring
him clear over to this coast In this
connection the news from Los Angeles
is of somewhat confrmatory charac-
ter. A line of road is actually being
built from the Gulf of California to
Deming, and thence to Yuma. The
terminus will be near Mazatlan. 1t
will follow the coast line to the
Hiaguiod river; then through the coast
range to Deming, the main street of
which it will traverse, crossing at the
same time the Southern Pacific track
and heading for Yuma. In San
Diego the general opinion is that this
line is backed by Gould, as to the
East, the only system which has lines
run through TO all points besides the
Northern Pacific is the Gould system.
The Denver and Salt Lake line, with
an extra extension through to Cali
fornia by one of the many surveys
made, would give to Gould an immense
area, and an influence not equaled
even by the Southern Pacific.
Work on the San Diego d Eastern
railroad will be pushed as soon as the
rails arrive on the ground. Two en-
gines and two passenger cars have al
ready arrived from the East and form
the first consignment of rolling stock.
The bonds of the road at $4,000 a
mile have been accepted by the Metro
politan Trust Company of New York.
The roadbed is partly graded between
Rsseville and San Diego. To hold
the franchise twenty miles of road
must be completed and operated this

The California cotton mills in an
open letter to the farmers of Cali
fornia, says:
''The cotton crop of the United States is
expected this year to yield an income to the
farmers of 100000, 900, and we see no
reason why this coast should not take its
place among the cotton growing arear and
share in the revenue. Instead of farmers
going on year after year planting wheat in
many valleys suitable for cotton, they
should plant cotton. We feel sure their
profits would be doubled. after allowing for
the extra cost of picking. Cotton culture
when once fairly established is rarely if
ever abandoned but there is great difficulty
in persuading farmers to change their
cropping.
"We are willing to make terms to buy all
cotton raised in this State, ginned or I'M
ginned. and will pay price for it which
will be certain to leave a handsome profit to
the farmer. Cotton and cotton seed are
now valuable and ever a marketable COM
modify, and the high prices paid for this
staple has much to do in making the South
ern or cotton growing States so prosperous.
The company further offers to give all the
advice and information necessary to farmers
who are willing to make an experiment in
cotton growing"
Nowhere in the world does cotton
thrive as it does in Southern Arizona,
and now that ready market is as
surad large acreage will be planted
to the fleecy staple in this Territory

FattenIng Cattle on Alfalfa.

Much talk is being INDUCED in
these days on the subject of fattening
cattle with alfalfa. Some feeders
have made good success, while not a
few have partially if not entirely
failed. In inquiring into the matter
we have been forced to conclude that
where there has been failure it has
been the error of feeding. The hay
fed has not been properly cured. and,
therefore not of the proper quality, or
the animals fed have been inferior
brutes that would not put on flesh
with any manner or quality of feed,
or have teen exposed to cold and
storm, or have been allowed too great
liberty and have run off more flesh
than ordinary feed would put on.
AS our reasons for these conclusions
will state that alfalfa is possessed of
the greatest fattening quality of any
of the forage plants. The expert
ments made lately at our Agricultural
College at Fort Collins gives gain of
l40 pounds of flesh for 1000 pounds
of hay fed. We assume that there is
no other hay than alfalfa that will do
this.
Taking the experiment at the Agri-
cultural College as a fair one, and as
Stunning that beef will continue to sell
as high one year with another as it
now does-say 81 cents a pound
then the alfalfa put in the beef would
pay So the ton, or thereabouts. This
we assume is fairly good price, and
will pay the farmer better than any
other general or leading crop. It's
poor acre of alfalfa that does not
yield four tons in the season. Twenty
dollars for the product of an acre of
land, and from crop that needs but
the one seeding in a lifetime, should
satisfy almost any ambitious farmer in
this or any other country. Two
thousand dollars from 100 acres of
meadow land pays better than mer-
camille business, and is far better than
investment in railroads or mining spe-
ulations.-Field and Farm.

County Lines.

The eastern line of Yuma county
which divides it from Maricopa and
Pima counties, is just now in contro
versy. Parties living near the line
claim to be in different county than
the one in which the assessor locates
them. It is therefore necessary tc
establish the line; to this end, the
County Surveyor, Breckenridge Of
Maricopa county, and Surveyor Hicks
of Yuma, will join in running the
line between their respective counties
Again, the line between Pima and
Maricops counties has never been
officially determined, and if these
county surveyors go into the field this
line could and should be established

The Star this morning sounds a
note of warning in regard to the mis-
placement of the Territorial asylum.
The Citizen did this year ago when
it urged upon our northern neighbors
to make the trade with Phoenix on the
capital question, but they refused to
see the inevitable and the result was
as foretold. The Great Salt River
valley, Notwithstanding its world of
agricultural wealth, is still no place
for the insane, and the good people of
Phoenix and contiguous towns know
it, whether they will outwardly ad-
nit it or not. The cause of the un
fortunate insane is the cause of hu-
manity, and neither personal interests
nor business policy suonld be allowed
to stand in the way Of their comfort
and well being The asylum should
be located in the cooler atmosphere OF
the north. 1t should be placed either
in Yavapai or ella counties. If
Yavapai had not been blind to her
own interests she could have made a
deal on the capital question and have
exchanged it for the asylum, which,
for the sake of the poor suffering
humanity that swelters within its
walls to-day, we cope she will yet have.

The Hottest Weather Known.

"What is the hottest weather ever

questioned is answered in the MAY

Weather Service. The highest tenn
perature recorded by the United

The Thermometer marked Il9 de-
grees. However, unofficial observers
report temperatures as high as 1873
degrees and 1872 degrees at Mammoth
Tank and Hum boldt, CAL The cold
est weather recorded by the service
was SO degrees below zero, at Popular
River, M. T., but this is q warm place
compared with Werchojansk, Siberia,
the coolest inhabited spot on the
globe. The thermometer there has
been as low as 90 degrees below zero.
In view of these figures, let US not

zero. Louisville Post.
