FARM NOTES.

While turnips and cabbage can be
left out until the heavy frosts, yet / Is
not a good plan to leave put too late.
One advantage in winter manurine
of wheat Is that IL acts as a mulch b
the plants as well as benefits the soil.
A good healthy chicken six weeks old
can pick up its wi living around al.
most any farm yard. When il is four
or six mouths old its flesh Is worth
twice rs much per pound as either beef,
mutton or pork.

The time when corn can be cribbed

years IL can be husked out and cribbed

THE following is an extract from 3 letter sent out by the Live Stock Commission of Chicago: The past year has been a notable one in the cattle trade. Receipts show 20 per cent increase over 1889, and will approximate 3,5OO,000 at Chicago. The markets have not been up to the producers idea, but supply and demand have been the governing factors and the least let up in re- ceipts has quickly resulted in bet ter prices. Now as regards the fu- ture 1t will take (4,000,000) four million cattle to supply the actual demand at Chicago alone during the coming year. Our export trade has reached enormous proportions. Chicago dressed beef and beef pro- ducts have found friends and buy CTS all over the civilized world. Last years corn crop was short fully 9 per cent. The advance in price has and will prevent many from feeding cattle Western graz ing grounds have been curtailed. With all these facts in view can the country supply weekly average of 77,000 cattle the coming year? If not, we may expect to see much higher prices rule"

Tho SquaW Man.

Few people remote from the res ervations know very much about the squaw man. In one sense he IS a queer chap, and being queer in the one sense makes him queer in many. Generally speaking, he is the distinguished lazy white man, who, being unable to find any white girls who fancy good-for-nothing fellows, marries a squaw.
 And the minute he marries a squaw the bucks drop him like a hot potato. They have no use for a white man who has not sufficient gumption to secure a wife among his own race; and in this respect the noble buck reasons just the same as us white folks.
 Another very singular fact in con nection with the squaw man is that whenever reports come to the white settlements about Indian battles, scalping scrapes, or preparations for war they are always brought in by a squaw man. The telegraph ope- rator flashes the sensational reports eastward, and adds that he don't believe a word of 1t, because squaw man is it's author.
 In these times of Indian tribula- tions the squaw man should be sub dued.-Chicago Saturday Blade.
 The blade could have gone fur ther and said, without stretching the truth. that nineteen times out of twenty, squaw men are responsible for the devilment done by the In dians. That the Indian measures all white men by the squaw mans standard, hence his contempt for the pale face.

A Bloody Proof.

Gus Hickey came in Saturday night from his mine in the Gauda- lupe mountains. He brought with him a vest which was covered with blood from the collar to the bottom. The lining of which was complete
 ly satuarated, Hickey it will be re- membered was the only one of the three men who escaped in the re- cent fight with the Apaches in which Bridger and Robinson lost their lives. After he went back to the mine from Tombstone he followed the trail of the Indians and fOu nd where they had camped that night after the killing at Bakers corral about five miles from the killing. Here he found the vest which the Indian had on which Robinson thought he had hit, and whom he ul.- doubtedlY did severely wound in the neck. The most startling part of the story is that there are at least three men of undoubted ve- racity who had been with Lieut. Clark's scouts while he was in that who will swear that it belonged to one ofthe scouts with whom Hickey had some previous trouble. Hickey has the vest at Bisbee and wishes the Prospector to state that Lieut. Clark can have it by applying for it.-Prospector.

The Troops Leaving.

Pine Ridge, January 23.-The Eighth Cavalry left today for Fort Meade. The Seventh Cavalry and Capron's battery started for Rose vile. The cavalry winter camp will be pitched on Roseville Creek, about six miles from the agency. A company of scouts is to be or ganized from among the Indian po- lice whose term of enlistment ex- pired yesterday. It will be sent to Fort Kinney under command of an officer of the Sixth Cavalry,
 Numbers of troops start for their different posts in day or two. General Brooke and staff leave for their home Sunday. About 40 of the hostile Brules have returned to Rosebud, but many of the others don't want to go back and a con- ference will be held tomorrow.

Washington, January 23.-The representatives of the Knights of Labor, Farmers Alliance and other labor organizations began meeting here today.
 The plan of an agreement look ing to a confederation is drawn up. It provides for a joint committee of five from each organization to rep resent the confederation. The St. Louis platform shall be the basis. Each shall stand pledged to assist, when possible, in all local efforts to better the condition of the peo. pie The joint committee shall have the power to admit other organiza- tions with a similar object. Each organization shall be bound to sup port the plans agreed upon by the joint committee. Adjourned until tomorrow.

TIE Richmond Disnatch is fght-

THE Richmond Dispatch is fight ing on the right line on the silver question. It says: To make the coinage of silver free would be to put millions of dollars into circu- lation. It will open tens of thous- ands of stockings and throw their boarded silver contents into the channels of trade and commerce. It would create a demand for all kinds of property. Numerous re- suits would follow which nobody can foresee. We trust, therefore, that nobody will become alarmed if that bill should become Jaw. Be sure it will not prove to be an un- mixed evil.

AcTING-Gov. MURPHY has made some excellent recommendations in his message to the legislature. He recommends retrenchment in the management of the Territorial prison and insane asylum. A ma terial reduction in the salary of the attorney general, and virtual abol- ishment of the offices of territorial geologist, commissioner of immi- grafton, and that the veterinary sur geon be paid by the stockmen. He also recommends the legislature to memorabilia Congress to have all unsurveyed railroad lands surveyed and that these corporations be com relied to pay taxes on the same. The adoption of the Australian bal lot, and many other sensible things. Taken all together it is a conserva- tive and manly document.

THE Philadelphia Record truly observes: A higher tribute could not be paid to the Supreme Court of the United States than is ex- pressed in the action of the English government in bringing the Beh- ring sea question before it for deci- sion. The English government is fully persuaded of the impartiality of that august tribunal, and surely this government can not reasonably object to such an arbitrator. It is to be hoped that no technicality will be interposed to prevent the trial and determination of this case in the supreme court. The count would determine the question in ac- cordance with the principles of in ternational law, and in its decision all parties would cheerfully ac- quiesce. Secretary Blaine will no doubt have occasion to rejoice above all others at the opportunity thus afforded of submitting a subject Of international controversy to calm md unbiase l judicial arbitrament,

Asking Freer Pensions Laws.

Washington, January 23,-A del egation of Grand Army people, headed by Commander Veasy, were before the House Invalid Pension Committee to-day, arguing in be- half of the bill providing for ser
 vice pension for the benefit of a large class of soldiers, aggregating possibly 250000, whose cases are not reached by the act of June last.

IT would be a good thing for the Legislature of Arizona to follow the example of the California legisla- ture, and enact a similar law as the one below. The Examiner says The Assembly has done itself cred it by passing, by vote of S9 to 5, the bill to forbid judges from exer- cising the powers of Turkish cadis in punishing newspaper men whom they may see fit to consider guilty of contempt of court, Now let the Senate do as well. The bill should pass by common consent. The abuse at which it is aimed is entire ly indefensible. When a judge is allowed to inflict punishment with out trial for infractions of his dig nifty occurring in his court room he IS given quite power enough. To extend this privilege, so as to allow him to imprison people at his own discretion for things they may have written somewhere else is going all together too far. It is substituting the arbitrary whim of an autocrat for the principles of law. Judges have given no evidence that they can be trusted with such power any more safely than any body else. Let the legislature relieve them of the temptation to abuse it.

E. J. SIMPSON, our councilman to the legislature, has introduced a bill to district all counties as to supervisors. That is, to divide each county into three districts and the supervisors must be selected one from each district. This a good law, as each portion of the county will then be represented in the su- pervisors. He has also introduced bill compelling all railroad com panies to report all stock killed.

Indian Ambassadors.

Ottawa, January 23.-The Indian agent of the Blackfoot reservation writes, under date of January 12, that news is given him by Black feet, just returned from the Blood reserve, that two runners arrived there to find out if, in case there was general uprising, the Bloods would assist the Dakota Indians or, in case of defeat, they could depend on them for assistance.
 One runner was Running Mar tin," formerly a scout. After a council he returned to the South Pegans, telling the Bloods if the agents questioned them to say they were perfectly satisfied, and ifeyery- thing turned out as they expected in the United States word would be sent when they were to meet for a general massacre, The place of meeting was to be near Fort Walsh.
 Upon receipt of this information the department took prompt steps to quell any demonstration and if any runners from the United States do cross the boundary they will be arrested.

THERE is more talent in the pres ent legislature than there has been in that body since the writer has been in the Territory, and the HER AID is of the opinion that portion of it could not be better employed than in simplifying the revenue law of the Territory. As it now stands scarcely any two agree as to it's in- depreciation, and it should be made so plain and simple that the aver age man could understand it.
