THE CITRUS FRUITS

The major portion of the fruit belt
Arizona contiguous to Phoenix is situate
OIL what is known as the north side
Salt river. The land in question is irri-
gated by four canals, viz: The Arizona.
the Grand, the Maricopa, and the Salt
River. All four are under control of the
Arizona Canal Company, which is doing
much to improve and beautify the valley.
Z Under the Arizona Canal is found the
best Of our fruit land, producing all or
nearly all OF our oranges. The oldest
orange grove of any size is owned and
operated by the Arizona I'm provement
Company, and is located eight miles
northeast of Phoenix, near Arizona Falls.
Ten acres were planted in 1888; the trees
were shipped in either from California or
Florida, and were not of the best. How
ever, under good care and proper man.
agement they have grown finely and bore
quite crop in lS9l-the largest have
ever seen for trees so young. In an eager
desire to obtain reputation for early
oranges and heavy crops the trees were
allowed to bear heavily when still too
young, resulting in the stunting of the
trees. To remedy this they were pruned
back pretty closely and not allowed to
bear at all the following year. The wis
dom Of this course, suggested by Mr.
Magnus TAFT, q skilled horticulturist from
Los Gatos, is clearly proven by the fact
that the orchard is now yielding fine
crop Of excellent quality.
Experience with this orchard demon
strates the fact that we can produce fine
orchards much earlier than California.
The fruit from this grove has been COM
pared with both Florida and California
oranges and found to be equally good.
Since planting the ten-acre orchard the
company has planted an additional 100
acres. chiefly to navels. Some of these
trees yielded a few fruits this year. Near

has a grove of twenty acres of fine young
trees, planted in 1891; adjoining this, DR..
Hardy also has grove of the same age
and size, while in the neighborhood are
sh5mber of smaller groves.
e'xLizona does not expect to enter the
Nge market in competition with either
Florida or California as large citrus
producing country, owing to the limited
area suitable for its culture, the Salt River
valley being comparatively small. But
we do expect to control the market for
early fruit on this coast. -a.-...,,,
We are told by Californians that our
winters are too cold for oranges, yet by
actual record kept at the Salinaro ranch,
the lowest so far has been 26 above zero.

THE FREIGHT TARIFF

The Santa Fe, Prescott and Phoenix has
issued its new freight tariff, taking effect
March lst. 1t is comprised in several Sec

portant items, showing charges from

The tariff means much to both Phoenix
and Northern Arizona. Heretofore hay
has been costing in Northern Arizona at
no point less than $40 per ton. 1t sells at
Phoenix $3.50 for alfalfa and SO for grain
Thus Prescott will now receive hay laid
down for $11.7O and $3.50. Flagstaff,
Williams and Kingman will get hay for
lesr than SIS that ever before has cost not
less than $40. 1t is relatively the same
with grain. The rates are considered very
satisfactory.
The farmers of Salt River Valley thus
are benefited, and at the same time

decided boon is secured by the residents
of the north.
While the through sheet is also at hand,
this is no comparative information as to
merchandise freights from main shipping
points. 1t is understood, however, that
rates are materially lowered.
Passenger rates have been placed at the
statutory rate of 6 cents a mile, though
concessions are to be extended upon all
public occasions.

MAINE COAST FISHERIES.
They Led to the Settlement of the
Pine Tree state.


J. Wingste Thornton, one of the most
indefatigable students of Maine history,
said
Recent collations of the early histori-
cal narratives demonstrate that the pro-
gress OF geographical discovery IN Amerl-
ca is to be credited to the fisheries, more
than 10 all other causes.
Charles Levi Woodbury.. grandson OF
Maine, in an address some years ago be
fore the New Hampshire historical socie-
ty, said:
Let it be clear, neither Pilgrims nor
Puritans were its pioneers; neither the
axe, the pillow, nor the hoe led 1t to these
shores; neither the devices OF the char
tered companies nor the commands OF
ROYALTY. 1t was the discovery OF the
winter fishery on its shores that led Ne"
England to civilization.
Just when fishermen first came over IS
an unsettled problem. Sebasti ian Cabot,
on his return to England in 1878, called
attention to the fisheries here. The fish
ermen were here in 1911, when fifty yes
sells came In 1877 there were $50 French
vessels on our coasts.
About this time France and England
began thelcontest for he American fish
ing grounds, which continued for more
than century. The English took Nova
Scotia and Newfoundland, where they
built, in 1522, forty or fifty houses for
their fishermen.
The French settled at Breton, and in
1713-14 began to build the famous fortress
and town of Louisburg, which took near
1t NJ 70 h11 nst q
five millions of dollars; and this for the
protection of their fisheries principally.
Martin Pring, an English navigator
came into Penobscot Bay in 1908 and
found, at Monhegan, cod i'll great plenty,
better than those of Newfoundland
Pring sailed up the bay, and he named
two OF the multitude of the islands he
found, Fox Islands. Now North Haven
and Ninalhaven.l Pring found the scenery
beautiful.
George Weymouth was at Monhegan,
May Il, 1905. While he went ashore his
men "with few hooks got about thirty
great Gods and haddocks which gave US
a taste of the great plenty of fish which
we found afterwards wheresoever We
went upon the coast
Capt. John Smith ranged along our
coast on fishing voyage in 1914 and ar
rived at Monhegsn the last of April
Among other things he took and cured
10000 dry fish and : 1000 cod fish. He said
that at the eastward and about Penob-
scot the French traders bsrtered their
articles on better terms than the English
Who these French traders We're | do not

Thomas Morton, of Mount Wollaston
now Quincy, wrote in 1922 that he had
seen at Richmond's Island fifteen ships
loaded with dried cod for Spain and the
Straits, without which Spaniards, Portu-
guese and Italians could not victual their
vessel.
