DO IL by building Uneven Managers and

There is no reason why herd of
dairy cows should suffer in appearance

trouble is floors without drops, or that

Protect the Trees from Rabbits, Mice and
Othe- Depredstors.
Now is the time OF danger TO young
orchards while the snow is on and the
green grass is out of reach of the rab-
pits which must eat to live, and in lieu
a that which they may relish better
viii take the bark from the apple or
Other fruit trees. Wrapping the frees
in the orchard with thick paper will be
as easily and quickly done as any
other method Semi-pruning and let
ting the limbs lie around affords pro-
lection as the rabbits prefer the scions
to the main stalk of the tree. The
mice, too, often do great damage under
the snow if much rubbish is left about
the roots of the tree under which they
can harbor Small trees are often en-
tirely barkeo around close to the
ground. 1t is safest TO clear away the
trash and bank up little with dirt in
the fall. A remedy in the spring, IL
discovered early enough, is TO bank
fresh soil around where the bark hae
been removed, before the wood has dried
too much, and new bark will take the
place OF the old. This may be done where
the rabbits have gnawed, unless too
high up on the trunk, which IL is liza bic
to be where the snow has drifted about
the trees and which enables the rab-
bits sometimes TO get among the
branches. The winter has started in

1t was betty. cen my house and my

barns are situated midway. The tele-
phones are made of cigar boxes. The
line wire consists of two strands of
steel binder wire twisted. The cigar
boxes must be tight and strong. We
nailed the cover down first, using small,
ffse wire brads- In the center of the
cover a hole one and e-fourth inches
in diameter was bored with n sharp

center of the bottom n hole was bored
one-half inch in diameter.
A hole three-fourths inch in diameter

cigar box placed over il. the four cor

screws should project about one-half

 The town is beautifully situated about seven miles southeast of the San Francisco peaks on the Colorado Pla. teau. It is on the main line of the Atlantic & Pacific railroad, Santa Fe Route) 344 miles west of Albuquerque and s34 miles from San Francisco The business of the railroad at this point is larger than at any other sta ton on tho road between Los Angeles and Albuquerque. It is also the ini- tial point of the Central Arizona rail road, whici is intended so run to Ben son via Globe, and which will pass through q fine timber and agricultural section, as yet undeveloped.
 The magnificent pine forests oi the county form one of the leading re sources of Flagstaff. A conservative estimate by competent authorities places the stumpagc at not less than 5000, 100000 feet Since the first saw-mill was established hero in 1882, the average annual cut has betn about l3,000,000 feet. Yet so muniiicently has nature endowed the country sur. rounding Flagstaff with this staple that the amount cut only serves to impress the observing with it's insig. nilicance as compared with the appar. ently incxhaustiLle supply yet standing in primeval dignity and pride.
 The Arizona Lumber anl Timber Company have here one of the finest plants in the country, and produce five times as much lumber as all other mills of the Territory combined. They dispense through their employees about $300,000 annually, which sum in it's entireity is direct revenue to Flag. staff.

COC0NINO COUNTY
THE ONLY COUNTY IN ARIZONA WHERE CROPS CAN BE RAISED WITH
 our IRRIGATION.
Rich Valleys, Broad Expense of Tow cring Pines.-A Magnificent Cn- mate, Where sickness is Almost Unknown.-Cattie Sheep, Farm ing and Timber Industries.

SOCohtilO' CVuuey ""o, VIII I0D'""iys ys 1891, a part of the original mother county of Yavapai. Approaching the needs of the country around Flagstaff, the legislature of that year passed an amicablc act of separation, dividing the area into two almost equally sized counties. Coconino's portion of about l5,000 square miles includes the major portion of the Grand Canyon of the Col orado of Arizona, extending north to the line of Utah.
 About two million acres of this ex- panse is covered with a dense growth of fine pine timber; naturally, therefore numbering is one of the principal in dustries. Cattle arc reared by the thousand, and sheep in numbers almost beyond computation graze on the yer dant slopes. Farming of late has be- come an important factor in the derel, .opment of the couniy's resources. There are many beautiful mountain valleys where farms of fifty to hundred acres have already been established, and tile extension of the county's cultivated trca is being pushed by intelligent tanners from the Eastern States.
 Within the county of Coconino, Of which Flagstaff is the county seat, are ,Jout 2,750,0o0 acres of fertile farm ing land susceptible of cultivation without irrigation. Of this vast area not more than ten thousand acres are under cultivation. Almost in the cen ter of this garden land Flagstaff Is located. It is to her markets that the patrons of husbandry must look for sheir supplies, and this is the gateway through which their products flow into 'the markets of the world"
 The soil for the most part Is a rich cam, containing the dement's of sus terance on winch cereals and potatoes best thrive. In an average season the yield of potatoes is from five to six tons per acre. Grain harvests arc as abundant as in the rich fields of Kan. sag and Illinois. The fruits of Oak Greek and those raised by the settlers in the rich region around Tuba City gre equal in size aud flavor to the picked specimens which grace the hor- t'cultural fairs of renowned fruit-grow- ing sections.
 Of such land as is above described there is still quantity equal in area to the State of Massachusetts open to settlement under the homestead laws. It is safe to predict that within few years there will not be within Coconino county ten square miles of land having my agricultural value under the owner. ship of the government. Resulting from this, community of the utmost desirability will develop, of which Flagstaff will be the trade center and supply point.
