The Prescott Courier says: Charley O'Malley, an old Prescott boy, now of Los Angeles, has returned to see us all, likewise to purchase beeves. He thinks beef cattle will soon be worth three cents per ipound, gross. Others think they will rise higher than that. Hope so, at any rate Poor devils who have raised them need raise of this kind.
 It begins to look as if the above pre- diction was being verified, as we are re- liably informed that Charles Zeiger, of Navajo Springs, is now engaged in gath ering four car loads of beef steers, for California parties, for which he is to re- ceive $2.90 gross. THE HERALD does not care how high cattle go, but does not want to see them as low as they have been.

St. George Creaghe, Esq, returned on last Friday afternoon from his ranch on the Coyote, and reports cattle in that section as very thin. Unless we have an early and favorable spring, he thinks there will be large loss of cattle in the county. Prices need to go up consider ably, to make up for the losses, which have been pretty heavy for the past two or three winters.

The agricultural portion of our com munity have been busy for the past few days strengthening the dam of their reservoir south of town.
