So that when | read one mans opinions,
that this or that fertilizer is only fit to

only to say to myself, know nowjust as

safe to practice?
After all it may be as we'll flor those who
have had few years experience to be
little more merciful in your criticisms, on
those newcomers who have been SO reck-
less, as to express an opinion; for who
actually knows except he be more than
human?
However there is much good from the
discussions and comparing of views, and
experience, that a careful observer may
put to gether and average up, that will
serve good purpose. S. B. M.

Howto Make a Start in Bee Keeping.
A subscriber wishes me to tell how to
make a 'start'' in bee keeping.
1t is essential that start be made in
the right way. or the would-be bee keeper
becomes Disguised and leaves the bust
ness, when, if right start was made, he
would become enthusiastic and continue
to his pleasure and profit.
1t is difficult to advise hOwa start may
be made, as persons, surroundings,
means and knowledge of bees are so diff
ferent.
l. Wild bees may be obtained in many
places at very little expense, but in the
hands OF a novice would probably be
pretty dear, unless the tree was cut when
bees are swarming and the bees hived as
a swarm.
2. Colonies may be purchased in box
hives; these may be examinedby blowing
smoke in the entrance and leaning the
hives over. The combs should be in
straight sheets, light in color, not dark
or black, and plenty of bees, if in fall or
early winter, plenty of honey, if in swarm
ing season, lots ofbrood and bees. These
may be be transferred to q frame hive
when honey is coming on, or allowed to
swarm and the swarm hived in frame
hive.
3. New swarms may be purchased at
the beginning of the sWarming season and
hived in frame hives. They should be
large to be profitable, and usually in
good season will either swarm or give
some surplus, or both, or may be divid-
ed.
4. Colonies may be purchased in frame
hives. If they are good colonies, in good
hives of the right size and at fair price,
they are the cheapest, as they are in a
condition to give some profit the first
season with little more expense and the
beginner can become acquainted with
and familiar with their way of doing
things. Such colonies should have
straight sheets (also called cords or
frames) of comb, worker size-the less
drone or large sized cells the better.
Ii the colonies are in hives ever so
little different from the standard sized
! would pay no more than [ would for
same colonies in box hives, as it is very
important to have all hives of one size
Tor at least the frames) and that the
standard Langstroth supplies OF all kinds
are kept in stock and at lower prices
than for Others, and the beginner knows
what he is ordering, what it will cost and
about it. will soon describe hive suit
able for this country.
Correspondents incIosing stamps for
reply will be answered through the FLOR
IDA AGRICULTURIsT, if the questions are
of general interest and the editor will
give them space; if not Of generalinterest
will send answer direct.

Inconsistency of Orange Culturists.

dent of Florida, but in that time have
read and heard great deal said about
the various methods OF orange culture.
often come in contact with men who
seem to pride themselves on having been
here many years and how much they
know, and as often have [ heard the re-
mark that the "six weeks resident here
can tell you more about orange culture
than the oldest inhabitant." am rather
disposed some times to believe that it is
a fact, however, for if he has been at all
Observant he may have one or perhaps
two correct ideas, but as [ talk with half
q dozen of these old time wise-acres, [
find no two of them agreeing on any one
thing.
A few days ago [ was at work cutting
away thesuckers and water sprouts from
some young trees. A neighbor said to
me, II would not do that; better let
them grow. Ii you cut them off the sap
will go into the top and make a new
growth, and then if frost should come
during the winter your tree will be
ruined" His advice was to let the grove
alone this time of the year and hold it
as nearly dormant as possible. A few
days later [ found man cultivating a
grove and pruning off water sprouts,
and l said, "Why, are you not risking
new growth by working your land now
that may be killed back if a frost should
happen to Gomez" "No," said he. eff the
weather is warm trees will grow any way
whether you cultivate or not, and if it is
cold weather they will not grow, though
you cultivate Or do what you will, even
to fertilizng" Now which of them is
right, and how am | to know, except [
may happen to soon meet with some ex-
periences just in that particular line and
then when have had trees injured by
frost, after having cut away sprouts, or
cultivated the ground, or plowed under
crab grass? How am [ to know that
there were not several other causes that
had their effect, either for or against the
frost?
have been instructed again that fer
tilizers should not be covered too deep,
but just enough dirt over it to prevent
it's evaporation. But in the last issue of
the AGRICULTURIsT [ read in Mr.. S. T.
Shepherds article that nothing less than
blowing it in will do. Then he goes on
to say, "No fertilizer should be put on a
grove in the fall while [ see some of the
most successful growers in our vicinity
putting on bearing groves as high as a
ton of blood and bone to the acre as late
as September.
So itgoes on; one man claiming knowl-
edge and large experience, advocating
right the opposite of another with like
knowledge and experience. Now is itnot
fact that in all this talk there is more
of it to suit the peculiar notions of the
one telling it as some pet theory he has
long been nursing, than any practical
test he has ever made?
am conscious of my own ignorance on
all these questions, though [ am a new
conner, but [ can see very little hope of
getting at facts other than by a careful
experience after all. have long noted

Indians in New Mexico.

Denver. June 1S.-sA special from Fl Paso, Texas, says: A freight crew which arrived here over the Southern Pacific road reports that when they arrived at Sepor station, just this side of Lordsburg, New Mexico, at ? 80 this morning, they found the town wild with excite ment over the arrival of a cowboy who had just reached there bare footed, his feet covered with cuts and bruises from having run 10 miles from ranch north of Sepor, where he and 10 other men were camped. He stated that at 10 o'clock last nighta band of Indians surprised them and shot them down as the men jumped out of their blankets to escape. He thought there were about 30 Indians in the band. The cowboys had been in bed but short time when the at tack was made. Some of them were armed but did not have their guns handy, not expecting to find the Indians on the warpath in that section. He saw three men drop and thinks that the rest shared the same fate. A posse was organized at Lordsburg and one at Deming this morning to go and hunt down the Indians. Sepor is 130 miles west of this place.

The HarShaW Killing.

Allen English has returned from Harshaw where he has been in be- half of Jack Davis, who killed Q Chinaman at Harshaw last Monday. Davis upon examination was sent to jail at Tucson to answer at the action of the next grand jury. Da- wis was, short time ago, a bar tender for Ritter & Hook, and is we'll known around Arizona as we'll as in many Nevada mining camps. The trouble arose from Wong Ben the deceased, and Davis quarreling over a game of cards. They scu f. fled, and during the meelee a six shooter dropped from Davis pocket at which the Chinaman ran off say ing "I'll get my gun and show you how to shoot" Davis was warned against the Chinaman as being bad man but saw nothing more of him till the next day when Davis met him on the street and asked him if he could get something to eat at the restaurant where he was cooking. The Chinaman said "yes, oo,,1o oIc,1o3 n,1.io ollOyoJ I,1,V into the house and sat down, wait Ing for his food, when the China man came in with a long butcher knife saying, "Now I've got you," when Davis pulled his gun and shot him, the ball entering the arm and going through into his side. Davis ran out and gave himself up. The Chinaman died in a few min- utes es.-ProspectOr.

Coed Shooting.

Kingman, June 13.-A shooting affair took place at the Empire mill. twenty-five miles north of Kingman, on Friday morning, the 18th inst, between Ed. H. Jones and Presley Brown. Jones was shot in the neck, and died almost instantly Brown was shot in the stomach, and died the following morning. Jones used a 3S caliber pistol, and Brown an old fashion ed shot gun, and each fired one shot. The affair arose over a dis pute on the dump of the mine, in which Jones accused Brown of med ding with his affairs, and he drove Brown from the dump and down the nil at the point of his pistol, Brown was unarmed. Jones return ed to the dump and worked a few minutes, when he took his pistol in hand and went to the house, a few yards away, where Brown had gone. Jones supposed that he had the only gun on the place, and that he was sure of his victim. A few minutes prior to the trouble an h. dian had left a double barreled shotgun near the kitchen door, but this was not known to either party, and when Brown saw Jones ap- preaching he ran to the back door, and then first saw and secured the gun. They met at the dining room door and the shooting took place. both firing at the same time, and with the result already mentioned. Jones was foreman of the mine, and had been in the county about four years. He was of q quarrel some disposition, and frequently in trouble. He was a single man about 36 years of age, and a native of Maryland.
 Brown had been at work on the  mine and ran the boarding house, and had been in number of shoot ing scrapes. He leaves a wife. An inquest was held by c. NJ. Funston, ex-olficio coroner, and the jury re- turned verdict that the deed was done in self-delense, and exonerat- ing Brown -Jourual Miner.

ApachcS in Che Chircahua Mountains

From John Grey who came in this morning from bis ranch in Rucker canyon, in the ChiIcahua mountains, near the scene of the Hardie murder, we learn that on Thursday morning as William Key holds was riding the range on the Leslie ranch he came upon six mounted Apaches who were round ing up the band of horses belong ing 10 that ranch, at the head of a canyon. Reynolds pluckily open ed fire on them and finally drove them off, although several bullets from their rifles whizzed unpleas- antly near his ears. The ranchers in that vicinity feel that their lives are in jeopardy, and are furious at the indifference of the military, who virtually refuse them any protec- ton. giving as a trifiing excuse that forage is short and they would not be able to establish a camp there.
 Apaches are reported in the vi- cinity of Whitewater ranch. We are informed on good authority that the boy who carries the mail was pursued for some distance by two Indians a few days ago.-Pros- pector.

Suffering for Water.

I
 Emilio and Frank Mendivil start. ed from Hodges ranch last Thurs day with burro train laden with supplies for Judge Isaac Levy's store at Norton's Landing. Owing to high water in the sloughs, the men had to take the back road from the river until the regular road could be reached. After couple of hours travelling, they discoverd the unpleasant fact that they were lost. A long and tedious walk followed, their drinking water became ex- hausted and the hot sun soon be- gan to tell upon their animals. Af- ter vainly endeavoring to find the trail, Frank Mendivil and his broth CT concluded, to strike dry camp. The merchandise was taken from the burros and night of horror followed; thirst, maddening thirst, drove the men almost frantic, and before long their animals broke the picket ropes and stampeded away in search for water.
 Friday morning dawned clear and warm the sun shone with its usual brilliancy, and as the hours of the day crept on, the heat be- came very severe. Emilio Mendivil by midday became delirious and his brother tried to cheer him up, but his words were thick and few, his swollen tongue, parched throat and dried palate were not condu- cive to articulate speech. The men made up their minds that they would die, and such death miser- able, terrible, almost indeScribable yet a little of the precious fluid which was surely flowing but short distance from them, in the Rio Colorado, would save them. Once again in a delirium of despair, Frank made final search for wa ter, but his efforts were vain. As he fell in spasm of pain, he heard the welcome sound ot an approach ing horseman. A shout, a last de- spairing cry. and-a cheerful reply, hell at last was at hand. The mail rider J. Martinez, jumped down from his horse and gave the boys a drink from his canteen and soon the precious fluid flowed down the other brothers throat. Coolingly and gratefully the magic elixir pure water-restored consciousness and leaving the boys the balance of the water. Mir. Martinez rode to the Hodges ranch, and notified Frank Norton and P. Hodges, of the situa- tion; they immediately went out and attended to the unfortunate young mems wants, secured their burros, and went with them to their home at Picacho where they have already regained their usual health.
