WHO had filed their positions with ex-

THE CHOICE.
FOR SUPERINTENDENT OF THE MINT

H st "+ - I'll M& -
1t is generally believed that Presi-
dent Cleveland has semi-oficially
ruled against the appointment of his
old officials, and in view of this and
the recent letter of the Hon. Gabe
M"ntegut, many good Democrats rave
been led to believe that the Superin-
tendency of the United States Mint at
New Orleans, cannot be given to Mr..
Montegut.
We cannot for Il moment believe
that Mr.. .Cfrv, lard would positively
refuse to appoint IN old, true, tried,
faithful and competent "x-"fficial, who
resi-. ned as snon as Harrison was M
duct, d into Office, or that his ruling
would sanction All interpretation from
our opponents, that all the old officials
were failures, and the first admins
~tiation OF President Cleveland thereby
failures. No sane man can say, much
less believe, that either Cltveland's
first administration was Il failure, or
that his appointees were incompetent.
The American people never elect Il
second time incompetent officials.
The patriotic letter of Mr.. Monte
gut, which you will find published in
this issue. only shows up his true
Democracy and pttriotism-lis devo-
ton to his patty and its chief, Grover
Cleveland-and concludes by ,llank
ing the Louisiana Democracy and his
personal friends tor The Spontaneous
unsolicited support they gave him for
the Mint, but it. was not a throwing
up of the sponge, as interpreted by a
few interested politicians.
Hence we call on all our friends, to
renew their exertinns in favor of the
Hon. Gabriel Montegut for the posi-.
ton of Superintendent of the Mint a,
New Or cans, and respectfully ask the
Hon. Andrew Price to see that the
choice of the Democracy of the State
aud particularly ut his District, Wi
get the position he So %eminently &c.
serves, and which we hear has been
assigned to this Third Congressional
District.

Apples for Warm Sections.

Apples are desirable fruits to grow in every locality. but not all varieties can be grown in the warmer valleys of California, Arizona, New Mexico and southern Utah. In Southern Cal ifernia seeding of the Newton Pip pin, equaling it's parent in productive. ness and flavor, and surpassing it in size, is grown in the heat The apple is called the Golden Middling, and it originated ill North Carolina
 The Red Warrior is fine, crisp and juicy apple. grown as Mobile, Alabama. It is bright colored, perfectly formed fruit, good keeper and always sells well. The Grindstone originated near Galveston, Texas, keeps through the winter and remains firm and salable until the Red Astrachans are ripe. All these apples are reported to have ripened and made fine fruit in Fresno county, California, last season, where fortwelve days the thermometer regis tered over 100 degrees in the shade [Exchange.

The Fruit Grower should Know.

He should be acquainted with all of tine more common insects that oc- cur in his vicinity, their names mot necessarily their scientific ones, their injuries and their habits.
 He should be able to defect new in- sect pests. so that he could promptly submit them for scientific study.
 He shonld be able to distinguish be- tween insect foes.and insect friends, so that in fighting the former he will not destroy the latter.
 He should be able to refer them to each one of the several orders to which they belong, so that he can speak or write of them understand ingly, without grouping them all un- der the name of bugs
 He should know the manner of in sect feeding, whether by means of biting jaws, or with a proboscis, so as to be able to employ the proper class insecticides.
 He should experiment with such remedies and preyentiyes as his wn observation and experience may sug- gest.
 He should avail himself of the publi- cations in economic entomology relat- ing C fruit pests, which are numer- ous and would be of great service. Dr. j. A. Iitner to American pomo- logical Society.

FACTS ABOUT ALFALFA.
Yuma Timesl

The experience of the past year has demonstrated that it is no use to try to force alfalfa and other things out of season. There is proper time of year to SOW and plant here as else where. With alfalfa, if sown after the extreme heat of summer sets in, the great danger Is from scalding, as several people have found out to their cost. With small patches of an acre or so where care can be taken in irri- gating, alfalfa will grow and make a stand during the summer, but it is a question if anything is gained over waiting couple of months until cool CT weather Fall and winter sown alfalfa obtains sufficient growth and strength to resist any bad effects from the summer sun which late sown seed is sure to ex- perience.
 Interviews with some of our best farmers. men who have farmed all their lives. develop the fact that there is no difference of opinion on alfalfa sowing. Any one who saws in June July and August is simply taking big chances of success. Those months are best to clear land of brush, be- cause then no second growth will start. Land should be properly clear ed and leveled: then irrigated so as to start the weeds After the weeds have come up several inches they should be turned under This course will effectually get rid of them while the alfalfa is making start and not necessitate pulling up weeds to save the alfalfa from being choked out, as was the case with some summer sowing. The great danger in summer as has been said is scalding. Where ever the ground is uneven and the water stands, the alfalfa is almost sure to be killed. The advantages of fall sowing are that the weather is then cool enough so that the sprouted seed will not burn or scald; th9 ground will not need to be irrigated so much or so often because the crop gets the benefit of winter rains; by the time, eight or nine months after sowing, that hot weather sets in the roots are down far enough to resist rapid dry ing out of the ground.

 Some parts of Arizona are well set tied and have been thoroughly culti- yated for years, yielding as large val rlety of fruits, cereals and vegetables as any land in America. Its soil is Immensely productive and protita- able, and when improved cannot be be purchased for less than $50 to s250 per acre.
 The land is level for many miles and the soil is inexhaustibly rich. The growth Of vegetation is so rapid that new farm. it is said. may be covered with a growth of wide spread Ing trees in three years time. The country is beautifully checkered with clean. long highways densely shaded in places that the rays of the sun can scarcely find way through. In the older districts the houses are of the most modern style. clean. cool and in- yiting
 Large palm trees spread their broad canopy of leaves over the door-yards. while the pomegranate, the fig the date, the prune. the almond tree. with orange. peach, pear and grape are found scattered more or less abundantly through the gardens and orchards of the country.
 The climate is said to be unsurpassed for the cure of lung and throat dis eases. Southern California on the west and Colorado to the east have both stood high as asylums for the con sumptive: but while California k mild it is not dry, and, vice versa, while Colorado is dry it is not mild. Here, however. in Southern Arizona, is a climate both mild and dry, making it a natural sanitarium for the diseased lung and throat.
