BRAND RECORDING.

OF Interest and Importance So Every Cat.
tleman in Arizona.
1t is of the greatest Importance
to cattlemen of Arizona that they
should know of the provisions u
the late law with reference to brand
recording, and after knowing the
provisions, proceed without unnec-
essary delay to comply with the
law.
The new law makes it eompul-
sorry that all brands be recorded in
the Office of the Live Stock SAM
tary Board instead Of with the
county recorders of the several
counties, which county record
books have been done away with
i'll so far as they constitute pub
lie record.
Those who had their brands on
county record will request the
county recorder, either IN person
or by letter, to make out certif-
cate of such brands on blanks furn-
ished the recorders. For this they
pay fee Of 25 cents TO the record.
err. The certificate is signed by
the owner of the brand or his
agent, as the case may be, after
which it is sent TO the Office of the
secretary of tho Sanitary Board at
Phoenix. 1t should be understood
in this connection that no brand or
mark shall be changed after the
certificate has been signed by the
recorder, and his seal affixed.
Such changes can be made, but on
another blank wbIch will be fur
nished by the secretary on request.
All brands which have nIver
been recorded heretofore will have
TO go to public record under the
present law, and, for which purpose
blanks will be furnished by the
Secretary. This referes to horses
as well as cattle; if You have ten
different brands on your ranch,
you should have them recorded #
you desire to be secured in the use
Of the brand. 1t is an erroneous
idea that only the brand kept up
need be placed on record.
If you have other brands, and
which from your failing to record,
do not appear on such record as
taken by anyone, the same will be
allowed to the first applicant who
may apply for such brand, in which
case it might work to the serious
disadvantage of the first or original
owner of cattle in such brand.
1t is intended to be and certain.
ly will be an advantage to every
cattleman in Arizona, and to that
end all ale urged to take advantage
of the provision at the earliest pos.
sible moment.
Remember, brands do not have
to be burnt on leather as Of old.
A simple filling out of a blank will
be all that is required, which blank
the county recorder will furnish ii
your brand has been recorded. If
II has not been on record request %
blank from the Secretary ag
Phoenix.
In all cases of brands which
have been on county record, a fee
Of % cents is paid to the recorder
Of the county. In all other cases
the fee is 81 for each and every
brand, payable by Geek or money
order to the Sanitary Board, and
must accompany the application.
This covers the cost of recording
and q certificate under the seal Of
the board.
The reader will confer favor
both on his fellowman and the
Sanitary Board by making this as
widely known as possible. The
better plan perhaps would be to
clip this out and carry it IN your
pocket, where it can easily be re-
ferred to.

Capital.
The agricultural resources of the
ella valley are both varid and ex
tensive, comprising an area Of
arabic land of which there is al
present tributary to canals and
bitches, 10000 acres which is
capable of being irrigated. The
principal products are alfalfa, wheat
corn, barley, oats, vegetables, de
cidious andcertain classes of citrus
fruits.
This is the natural home Of
alfalfa, of which from 4 to 5 crops
are grown yearly, yielding from 8
to 8 tons per acre. 1t is not as
stocky as that which comes from
the Salt River valley and is pre-.
terable for either horses or cattle,
Wheat, barley and oats grow
prolificly, the former containing a
very large amount of nutrition,
Yellow dent, white gourd and
other large varieties of corn yield
productivity, vegetables are large
and solid and come to maturity
two months earlier than IN the
eastern and middle states.
The valley and Hill lands are
adapted to all of the products Of
the temporal zone, and many Of
the fruits Of the semi-tropical
countries. The apples equal in
size and flavor the prize winners
Of the eastern states. The seed
ling fruits are unexcelled in size
and general excellence. Apricots
and apples both grow with sur
prising rapidly. The peaches in
appearance and taste are identical
with those which come from the
famous orchards of New Jersey.
Canagrie grows wild, some of
the tubers being as large as good
sized potatoes. Tests now show
that canagrie root, which flourish,

ton of the valley, contains large

Farming lands can be purchased
at from $50 to 500 per acre, in
Guiding improvements and water
rights.
Uncultivated land without water
right is free to any settler under
the United States homestead law.
This class of farms will eventually
become valuable when the canal
facilities have been increased.
The cost Of maintaining the ca

ers varies from 80 cts. to S1.00 per
acre per year.
The following are the market

Milk cows $500 to $1,000
There is at present about lis
miles Of irrigatlng canals and main
bitches, not including the lateral
bitches which will make the total
several times this amount. This
gives ample water to assure crops
for about $4,000 acres. When the
Enterprise canal is finished it will
water several thousand acres OF
rich table and bottom land. II
has been estimated that a quarter
of million acres Of additional land
could be irrigated if storage dams
were built. This could be done
in several places, notatly at the
narrows about Is miles from SAT
ford where box canyon exists
through which the river passes
1t is from this point the Enterprise

Graham county covers an area
of 900 square miles.
The ella valley is 35 miles from
the narrows to the edge Of the res
ervation, with an average width OF
bottom lands of Two miles, the dis
lance between the foot hills being
six miles. The valley is fianked
on the north by the ella mountains
and on the south by the Graham
mountains, Mount Graham being
the highest peak, with an altitude
OF ten thousand feet above sea level
Although but little prospecting
has been done in either the ella
or Graham mountains; the few
properties which have been de,

is practically inexhaustable; while
copper predominates, there is both

Charity WIN a string to Il.

We commend a careful reading and
serious consideration of the following
article from the New York World to
those churches and colleges which are
seeking or have accepted gifts and
charity from John D. Rockefeller, the
head OF the Standard Oil trust:
when President L. Benjamin An
drews, of Brown University, comes
home from his years sojourn in Europe
he will be called to account by the
trustees because of his attitude on
great national questions
1.-THE reason for the action of the
trustees at this time is. probably to be
found in the report that President An
drews has incurred the displeasure of
John D. Rockefeller, the Standard Oil
king, who was on the point of giving
the college sl,OOO,OOO or so. 1t is
claimed that President Andrews ap-
peared in New York and delivered an

1t is great thing, this payment of

that there have been 20, 900 foreclosure

The eastern press is waking up to
the fact that few men are the prac.
tical controllers OF the wealth of the
country. The New York Herald gives
a list of twenty men who own nearly
one-ffth of the real estate of the city,
the holdings of the twenty reaching
the enormous figure of $751;, 900, 900, ex-
elusive, of course, of their personal
property.
Senator Mills recent speech, in
which lie quoted Thomas g. Shear
mans figures, made in 1889, which
showed that the rich were steadily in
creasing their millions, while the num-
Der of American families possessing
less than $1,000 each was vast and
ever increasing majority, has led MI.
Sherman to go over the ground again,
only to confirm his first figures and
prove that what was true in 1889 is
even more true today. The figures, as
quoted by Mr.. Mills, show that "a, 600
American citizens own property in one
form or another to the value of S3l, $780,
100000. What this means for the other
folk is seen by the statement of the
World that the interest paid upon this
sum is not far from 81, 900 second-all
of which must come from the pro.
dueers
How much "landlUrdism" in one form
or another has to do with creating and
increasing these vast fortunes is
pointed out by writer in the Knights
of Labor journal, who uses John D.
Rockefeller's fortune by way of Illus
tration:
''Rockeseller's wealth is not all lock-
ed up in the Standard Oil company.
He has nearly solid 100000, 900 in
vested in many enterprises of vast mag
nitude. In real estate he has tied up

stocks and bonds s95, 900, 600; in bank
stock $4,000, 900; in natural gas stock
SO, 900, 900; in mines in western states
S., 900, 600; IN government bonds and
miscellaneous securities about 81, OOO,-
900, and in cash about $4,000, 900.
Now, if we examine this stupendUus
iniquity we will find that the real es-
tate consists mainly of land--the
steamship lines, mainly in land,
wharfs, landings, ETC.; the iron mines,
entirely in land; the railroad stocks
and bonds, mainly based on land; bank
stock, mainly based on land gas stock,
natural and manufactured, on land;
mines in western states; directly land;
government bonds and miscellaneous
securities all based on land; in fact, IS
per cent OF this vast wealth is in and
upon land and the power to curtail
natural opportunities
The basis of all monopoly is land
monopoly. So long us monopoly in
land exists, so long will the rich grow
richer, while the number of the very
poor must steadily increase. Farmers
