BEE CULTURE.

The people of the Salt River Valley probably do not know the result of one years cooperative work of the Bee Keepers Association of Maricopa County, Arizona.
 It is a just about one year ago that after very hard struggle one carload of honey was shipped off from this val ley byShis association. On the 29th of August, 1890, the REPUBLICAN copied from the GieanjRgs R Bee Culture, an exceedingly high indorsement of the quality of that carload of honey.
 For long time it was hard to make the individual growers understand the advantage of cooperation, and it was only by experience that it finally dawned upon them. This year there has been shipped to date seven car loads of extracted and comb honey, aggregating two hundred and seventeen thousand two hundred and thirty-six (2l7 ,236) pounds, which we understand has netted the shippers an average of about 6 cents pound over all expenses, or over thirteen thousand (Sl3, ,000) dol lars.
 This is the natural home of the bee, and there is no reason why this indus- try should not continue to increase for years to come, as the quality of Arizona honey is said to be superior to any other. While the amount is small it yet shows that we can sell our products at profit if we will raise the right kind of products. The Southern Pacific has not been unreasonable in it. charges. We understand, that on fruit rates equal to California. have this sea- son been given out of Tempe. With fully a month advantage in point of early season and several hundred miles less travel, our fruit with equal freight charges should, on point of condition, to say nothing of early season, outsell the California fruit. To do this coop eration is an absolute necessity, as no one raises carload that will be all ready at the same time to ship. By CO., operation and attention to quality and packing, we should in year or two ship fruit by the train load, where we are not now shipping any.
 Unless the fruit is of proper quality and properly packed, it is far better not to ship poor fruit never sells and good fruit, unless we'll packed, will be poor after one or two days railroad travel.
 The success of the Bee Keepers Asso- citation should put life into the fruit men. Organize, fruit men, and get ready for next years shipping of your fruits. There must be a beginning and that beginning must be by cooperation, 30 the sooner you organize the quicker you will begin to realize profits from your fruits.

THE PERADTA CLAIM.


 The rumor and impression from out side is that we have the above clam or so-called grant to thank for the pas sage of the Land Court, which is now about organized or ready to begin busi- ness.
 Reavis has, as his lawyers, some of the best legal ability of the Eastern states, and the people within the limits, of the so-called grant have as yet taken no action to protect their inter- ests.
 There is an old saying that "what is everybody's business, is nobody's business" and that is about the present status of the peoples side of the case.
 It is true that Surveyor General Royal A. Johnson has made an official report that covers the case in all the phases have as yet been presented, and undoubtedly that report will be sent by General Johnson with the other papers in the case when demand shall be made by the court on him for such records as he may have in his pos session. We believe here that we know the entire claim, Reavis included, to be an utter and unmitigated fraud, and that if Reavis had his just deserts he would be in the prison at Yuma.
 Surveyor General Johnson's report was read by Secretary Noble and Land Commissioner Groff. both of them ex- cellent lawyers, and each of them told us that in their opinion, General John- sons report was conclusive in its facts and it's conclusions.
 Yet it must not be forgotten, that Mir. Broadhead, of St. Louis. and Col. Robert Ingersoll, of New York, (to say nothing of string of other good legal talent), are each of them, exceedingly good lawyers and men of honesty and honor, and it is an almost absolute certainty that they have taken the case on contingent fee. It must be then that they see. or imagine that they see, a reasonable show to win. This being so, it behooves the people within the limits of this fraudulant claim to take some steps to look after their common interest.
 It seems to us that as proper way as any would be for the county super visors to employ counsel either seperate- I've by combination. Remember that a lawsuit often goes by default, and in that case the merits of the case never come to an issue. Let the people with in this fraudulent claim see to it that their case does not go by default.

bore no mark of the heavy spear. The giant
made second attack with greater force than
before, and when he found that the knight
had received no harm, he grew more and
more angry. He called on the witches to
help him. In answer to his cry, a host of
hideous creatures, riding on broom-sticks,
rushed down from the tree tops; but at the
sight of the bright shield, they cried:
eve cannot help you. Hasten away, or
you will die'
The giant. however, gave no heed to these
words, and became the more determined to
kill the knight. He then called for the
goblins and earth spirits to help him. Then
the prince and the maidens, watching from
the tower, trembled for the knight; but
these horrible, grinning beings, after
they had given the same warning as the
witches. fled before the sight of the glitter
ing shield. Now the giant was consumed
with passion. He fell to the ground, and
while rolling about in his anger he was
trod upon by the iron hoofs of his own
steed, which then fell dead upon the body
of his master. Thus the giant Tugarin per-
ished, and Rogdi's shield still remained un-
marred. The castle OF Kiew rang with
cries of victory, and the knight, who, With
his untarnished shield, had so braveIy dared
to face the enemy of the prince, was led into
the castle and given a place OF honor in
Waldimir's household. The beautiful
princess was now free to remain in the
castle of Kiew, where she lived until the
death of her father called her to King
BulgIa's throne. PAYsIE.

THE EARTH QUAKE IN QUEBEC.

A Theory That Accounts for It-Danger
From Lofty Buildings.
The recent earthquake in Quebec and the
slight shock felt in our seaboard States dur
ing the last few years are very interesting to
thoughtful persons. Some scientists, who
have made an especial study of seismic dis
turbances, assure us that there is an intimate
relationship between volcanoes and earth
quakes, ana that there is no great danger
from the earth tremors where there is no
volcanic formation. To substantlate this
theory they point to the fact. which cannot
be questioned, that the majority of earth
quakes seem to occur in volcanic districts
But there is no volcanic formation along tie
Atlantic seaboard. The most destructive
earthquake in many years was the one
which created such havoc in Charleston.
Quebec is far away from any volcanic indi-
cations, and 50 are the districts in which
slight shocks are 50 frequent in the Eastern
States.
The theory alluded to, therefore, is GER
tsinly very far frum conclusive. Volcanoes
apparently serve q purpose akin to that Of
the lid or the spout of teakettle-to let
steam or gasses escape. In the earth's
solidifying process within certain gases are
generated which find vent through vol
canoes. The most plausible theory to &C
couut for earthquakes, and the only one
which apparently explains the shocks in the
Atlantic States, is the shrinkage of the
earth's crust ON the inner side, in the cool.
ing process, and the sudden displacement
of vast masses of hardened matter. This
would account for the recent quake In
Quebec and elsewhere along the st. Law
renee river, where the surface formation is
almost mass of solid rock. And if this
theory be correct there is possibility of
shock anywhere, at any time,
There is no reason, however, why any
body should be fearful of consequences
resulting from earthquakes. Some dis
astrous shocks have certainly occurred, but
they rarely amount TO anything more than
an interesting sensation and topic for
conversation. The danger really lies chiefly
in the structures that are shaken by the
earth's convulsion. The old idea that vast
assures were opened in the earth by these
quakes had very little foundation. In
few instances small seams have appeared
in the surface, but no great destruction was
ever caused by people or property tumbling
into them.
But how much of an earthquake do you
suppose it would take to topple over some of
the sky-scraping buildings that have lately
become the fashion in Pittsburg? A few
yearsago there was very pronounced earth
quake shock which was felt in New York
City and for some distance along the coast.
AT the time the writer was sitting on the
piazza of a hotel at Long Branch. There
was sudden rumbling and shaking of the
building conveying tine impression that a
heavy baggage truck was being drawn
rapidly along the piazza. Ii New York's
sky-scrapers had been in existence then it is
a question whether there might not have
been sudden fall in the brick market A
very slight vibration at the ground would
be terrific at the fourteenth story OF q build

chose. But the knight desired to 60 alone,
aud mounted on a snow-white horse he went
forth to meet the enemy. This time the
giant Tugarin was not in his tent, but sat
proudly on his great horse and looked
scornfully at the young knight who had
come to meet him. But the giants horse
reared and pranced and cried: 'Tugarin,
let us away, or we shall surely perish by the
hand of this knight. Do you not see his
cleaning shield?"
But Tugarin held the reins with firm
hand, and cried:
"Be his shield bright or dull, shall slay
him. Does so small a creature dare to defy
me, the bravest of King Bulgia's warriors?
l shall take his life, and shall carry SIS a
prize to my good king the head of Prince
vladimir. Princess Lena has spent her
last day at the castle of Kiew. Tonight
she must return with me to her fathers
kingdom, whence she shall not escape again
SO easily. Come on, little knight, that 1
may first crush you in my powerful grasp,
and then give the body of your master as
food for the ravens"
From the high watch tower Prince Wal
dimir, his daughter and the beautiful Lena
viewed the strange battle. They could hear
the angry cries of the giant, and could see
the cleaning shield OF the brave Rogdi.
The furious giant sprang upon the knight as
if to crush him under his feet But Rogdi
remained uniDjured, and even his shield

and conservatory. The rockwork cannot be
completed without securing some OF the
wood-ferns to hide ugly features oft. The
delicate maiden hair should be seen peeping
out from crevices in the rocks, and the sem
sitive fern found growing in shady places.
In shady ravines in the woods the beauti-
full bladder fern, with Its long and delicate
fronds, may be gathered, and for the north
side OF rockwork 1t is most invaluable. In
the fern family scattered through the
swamps and woods there are many rare
specimens, which lovers of these plants de-
light in finding, and it will paw one to 60
forth into the unexplored regions to make
discoveries. Fortunate indeed is one if by
chance he can find for his fernery the
strange cliff brakes, with their bluish-green
color.
Dainty Little Treasure.
The maiden-hair spleenwort is another
dainty little treasure, with the vivid green
and purple-brown colors strangely con-
trasted. There are many other specimens
of the spleenworts which will attract the eye
if discovered growing in some out-of-the-way
nook in the woods. There is necessary also
for the fernery some of the tall,growing
ferns, which can be used in shady places
around the house for effect. The grand
ostrich fern is one that deserves attention,
and its long, plume-like fronds make it re-
semble tropical plant. The royal fern is
a beauty, and it takes such a hold on the
ground that one can hardly pull it up BY
main strength. The Virginia grape fern Is
another tallgrowing fern that deserves no.
tice
For the indoor ferneries only the ever
green varieties are desirable, and a vase
filled with the growing evergreen ferns
gives picturesque effect to the decoration
of the room. Fern culture either indoors or
outdoor requires very little work and study.
When the plants once get a good hold of
the soil they almost grow of themselves, and
The summer time, however, is the season to
begin fern culture, and then from the sue
cessful ones few may be selected for. the
