 Several parties are already in the sections referred to prospecting for the choicest spots on which to place their stock. We have thus gone into detail os localities and pasturage in order to answer tte many inquiries we are receiving, and also to give the facts, that the public may not be mis- led by the false statements made by the ignoramuses who have never been there, know nothing of what they are writing about, and are content to listen to their sorehead sympathizers in anything, not designed or owned by their "ring masters" and that will prejudice the public against Yuma and its back country.

AN ABUNDANCE OH FEED,

It is 8 fact not generally known, that in the country near by and ad- ,jacsnt to Yuma, and in its back country e little beyond, there is at the present time, an abundance of ex- cellent feed for live stock of all kinds, good pasturage with a beuntiful SUD- ply of good water for thousands of cattle. At the present time the cattle of the Hodges, Iaeger and others oc- cupy all of the grazing lands on the nsrth sido of the river, down to the national boundary line. Below that point, at the Algodones 20 miles from Yuma Hanlon & Carter have about 600 head. Some l6 other owners have about as many more in the sane vicinity. Near Indian Wells, 70 miles further vest G. W. Lang has about 900 head. Seven miles south on New river the McOain Bros. have 400 head. Thirty miles west of In- dian Wells at Dos Oabesas, the Hay den Bros. have some 900 more, or a total of not more than 3,400 head. In addition to these, with the present growth of grass and supply of water, Seven Wells and the country south can pasture 200 head, Alamo Mucho 300, Signal 200, Big Bend of New river 1000, Padrones 1000, Purdy's Mt. 1000, Slate Butte 1000, Cantiles 1000. Canon of the Blue Cross and Round valley l,500, San Isabel 1000, Tenaja 800, Oocopah (westside) 1000 Gabe Aliens Wells 1000 Horse Shoe Bend 1000, Pescadero 1000, Cotton wood Vale 2,000, or a total of 20, 200. There arc many other places where from 100 to 5O0 can be pastured. None of the above places are within 20 miles of each other and many of them are 30 miles apart.
 On this side of the river all of the available pasture land this side oi the Sonora line is already fully oc- cupied by the Avilas, Redondos, Ra- mirezes and many others with their cattle. Below the line, and between that and the old shipyard at Port Isabel, from 6,00o ts 10000 cattle can be pastured along the bottom lands of the Colorado and the low lands near the gulf. A large portion of the lands referred to on both sides ot the river belongs to private parties, with whom liberal arrangements can be made for pasturage. By those who have lately been there it is estimated that from 5000 to 5000 head of cat tie can be pastured oR each of the streams that lead from the boundary line north towards Salton. This gives the live stock growers, whose herds are now suffering from the lack oi feed in California and Arizona @ chance to change them into better pasturage, where at least from 35,000 to 10000 head of cattle can find geod feed for year to come. The feed consists in galleta, bunch, wild wheat, oat and rye grasses, sandhili clover, sldl4ria, white sage, red and white manzanita, mesquite, willow grass, jules, csriso, calite. natural

The citizens and shippers in the lower
part of this county are very much exer
cised over the prospect of the building of
the Washington and Chesapeake r. r.
They fear that crossing of the Patuxent
river at Mt. Calvert, as is proposed by
the company, win close the river above
that point to the Weems' Line of Steam
ers, as Bristol. the chief and only ship
ping point for large extent Of pro1uc-
tive country. is at least mile above, and
as the river is very narrow and winding
they fear even with large draw the
Steamboat Company will be afraid of
damage to their boats and will after a
time abandon the landing. There is pc.
tition in circulation to the Board of Pub
lie works against the building of the
bridge at that point without good and
sufficient draw.
