GOVERNOR HUGHES REPORT.
THE REPUBLICAN, publishes in another
column brief synopsis of some Of the
principal recommendations made by
Governor Hughes in bis annual report
to the secretary Of the interior, which
was received at Washington few days
ago. The recommendation which will
possess most interest for the public are
those relating to the Colorado river, the
arid lands and statehood. There ID not
much that is new to be said on the last
named subject, ofcourse. Every report
for many years has asked that the ter
ritory be admitted tc the Union. But
every year Arizona's right to admission
becomes stronger and Governor Hughes
puts forth every new point with force
and earnestness, which, il they do not
succeed in gaining us the right of self.
government will at least give the OPP
ponents of the long sought boon some
trouble in finding a reason for their op-
position. The suggestions on the arid
land question are peculiarly appropri-
ate in view OF the coming in
ternational irrigation convention. They
contain the germ OF plan which
when considered and developed might
be brought before the congress by the
Arizona delegates. 1t is certain that
the adoption OF some fixed policy by
the convention will have great weight
with congress when the time comes for
the settlement of the arid lands ques-
ton. Governor Hughes demonstrates
that these lands could be sold to the
states and territories in which they are
located with profits to the National
government and to the states. This
method destroys the objection, often
raised, that the cession would lead TO
monopoly, jobbery and corruption.
The last Of the three recommendations
to which reference has been made is
that asking for an appropriation for the
improvement of the Colorado river.
There again the recommendation is
supported by arguments which appear
unanswerable, and show the care and
thought which has been devoted to the
subject. If the governor can succeed
in inducing the government to take
even this one matter up and carry it to
a completion he will receive the graft.
tude OF the people. Altogether the
first annual report Of Governor Hughes
shows that during his brief period of
Office his time and care have been de-
voted toshe best interests Of the terri

A coNEusEn EInuRE-

Senator Voorhees, seems to be the "bull-
DOING part OF the administration, He ''got
hot" yesterday when he found things did not
bob up on his say 80 and proceeded to threaten
those members Of HIS party who did not bow
the knee to Baaps ass--Phenix Herald.
The above observation is chiefly re-
markable as a pot pourri Of biblical
illusions from which we infer that the
religious editor Of the Herald is tenn
porarily absent from the city and that
his duties are heavily devolving upon
some ungodly person who is incorrectly
informed as to scriptural events. We
believe Baal never owned an ass. He
was heather god who so far as we
know had no prediction for asses
and his worshippers could not there
fore have been expected to fall
down and worship them. Baal
insisted or rather his priests i'm
sisted on direct homage to Baal. The
Intervention of the ass in the worship
OF Baal is not mentioned either In
biblical contemporaneous or subsequent
history. That sacred ass unobserved
Of sacred historians or modern biblical
writers has come down through the
centuries and finally made his debut in
the editorial columns OF the Phoenix
Herald. That ass was gifted with an
eye to the fitness OF things.
The Herald's editorial may, however,
refer to an incident in the career OF
Balaam, gentleman who falsely rep
resented himself to be gifted with an
insight into futurity. He was accom-
panied in his periGrinations about the
country by an ass, whose sagacity on
one occasion prevented a conflict be-
tween his headstrong master and an
angel with flaming sword.
There was one strong and beautiful
point about this ass which the Herald
might prcftably initiate, and that is
when he was confronted by something
which he could not understand, he
stopped and became absorbed in re-

Not a Lost Art.

Archeologists and antiquarians in
their writings frequently refer to the
manufacture Of flint arrow-heads, etc,
as "a lost art" that is great mistake.
The art is probably lest to the Indians
because they have no use for it. The
stone implements have given place to
those OF iron and steel, and the rife
and revolver have supplanted the flint
ak and arrow head. The art of maxi
ing them is not lost, however. There

The Peach Orchard.

In planting peach. trees care should
be taken to give the orchard every adj
vantage to secure crop and to make
the fruit OF the best quality and APP
pearance, for the peach is a paying
crop when it hits the market just
right The best situation Is an ele-
waited one, as there is less danger of
frost The best soil is one OF warm,
quick nature; it should be naturally
rich or made so by manure. The
peach-tree requires richer soil than
the apple, / think; soil with a large
share of potash in it is one Of the
best. l notice orchards on hillsides
do best even though the soil may not
be so good. The land should slope to
the north rather than south, the brow
of the hill being a better location
than a steep northern or southern
slope. When on southern exposure
few warm days may bring out the
fruit buds, and they be killed by
cold snap. / have observed that Or
chards on high northern slopes sell
dom fail. Some may claim to have a
richer fruit from southern aspects, put
the orchards on the north do not fail
to have fruit of good quality also.
The culture Of The peach is quite
simple, but it must be thorough and
constant; neither grass nor grains
should be allowed to grow among
them, Garden crops, L find, may be
grown in the orchard even with a
benefit, as they are heavily MANFRED
and we'll worked. The finest peach
orchard and the finest fruit ever
saw was planted on a rich, warm soil,
cultivated and MANFRED every year
the same as the corn crop and kept
we'll pruned. In selecting trees, l
much prefer a small tree to large
one. l have known some growers to
select the largest, thinking thereby
to getfruit earlier; but believe such
persons make a serious mistake in so
doing. A tree should be kept headed
in, thinned, and well balanced over
the trunk. --Thos d. Baird.

Soil Wasted hx Winds.

Any one who wants to note the
losses of fine surface soil by winter
winds can see it clearly in the cover
ing of snow banks with more or less
deep covering of earth which makes
them look like piles Of mud. When
the bank thaws away in the spring,
this deposit of soil is washed into the
grass, giving it a bright, green color
insuring rapid growth. With clover
sometimes the deposit is so heavy
that the plants are smothered and
killed. 1t pays to erect artificial
wind breaks to prevent the most VIC
lent sweep of the winds, and, as a
rule, keep the fields that are most
exposed to sweeping gales seeded
with grass or clover as much as posi-
bic, in order to save this loss. The
waste is less on low lands, especially
if sheltered by orchards or forests on
the hillsides to the points whence
winter winds usually come.

Growing Potatoes Undor straw.

About growing potatoes under

spring the more moisture there Is in
the soil the less warmth there is
likely to be. Corn needs warmth, and
If 1T gets this early the roots will find
the moisture needed to perfect a crop,
But on land where plaster does no
good for corn, wood ashes arc almost
always helpful They, too, draw
moisture, but the first effect of caustic
potash is to get up a ferment and
thus evolve carbonic acid gas. This
is necessarily accompanied with in
crease of warmth in the soil, just
what corn in its early stage Of growth
most needs.

Protection for Young Trees.

To keen rabbits, mice, and sheep
from girdling young fruit trees the
best and surest way is to case or wrap
them with wire door screening cut in
strips wide enough to wrap once
around them and then tie in two
places with tarred Irvine, such as is
used in tying fodder Or If the trees
are not too large take common plas-
tering lath, saw once in two, making
the pieces two feet long, nail the
pieces together like a box trough,
set up round the tree, which covers
three sides, then put another piece Of
lath upon the other side and tie in
two places with tarred Irvine. This
is much better than dauhing with
COW manure, rubbing with beef liver
or blood, or soap, to be washed off by
the rain, making repeated rubbings
necessary. This is not expensive and
when done is done to stay till taken
down.

To Cure Crlb-BLters.

A gentleman living in village a
few miles nvrth has valuable 6-year
old trotting horse, which some time
ago formed the very bad habit of
cribbing; that is it would chew at
the wood of the manger and parts Of
its stall The habit grew and grew
till he was cribbing so constantly
that he lost flesh and did not eat a
sufficient squantlty Of food. The
owner sent statement Of the condi-
ton of things to Thomas P. Night
ingale and asked him if he could sug-
gest a remedy. Mr.. Nightingale
thought the matter over and replied
Eyes" He then went to work at
the arrangement described hereafter.
He had an induction coil wound,
Three cells Of battery were used. A
flexible Cord was led from it to the
horses back under the surcingle.
The stall was lined with tin where
the horse had the habit of cribbing
or chewing. The connection was
made so that when the animal
touched his lips to the tin at any
point the electric current ran through
his head and along his back to the
spine under the surcingle. This was
enough to make him turn away his
nose and lips with all the disgust an
equine can show. After vain efforts
to touch any part of either the man
ger or stall without getting the dose
he gave it up, and the result is the
animal is again eating and digesting
his food naturally and has lost his
taste for manger and stall wood. =

Originating New Varieties Of wheaA

originating New varieties OF WheaS
Wheat is usually self-fertilized, and
as bees do not come to its blossoms,
it is rarely that new varieties are
originated. Crossing by depositing
pollen from one variety on another
blossom is not difficult If the time for
doing this is known. This can only
be learned bYpractice. 1t is not best
to cross-fertilize varieties that widely
differ. The result will probably be
mongrel breed, having none of the
best characteristics of either.
Bearded varieties should be crossed on
those that have most points in COM
mon, and the bald whelts on the
