Oil Bearing stratas.

When the oil bearing stratss OF
Cochise county, which gave every
indication of carrying oil, are de-
veloped valuable industry will
be readily established and it would
not be boasting to expect to SCI, q
region here developed as extensive
in field as that of Los Angeles. All
that IS necessary to demonstrate
the theory is the sinking of well
to register depth than where the
first oil indications were struck.
This has not been done thus far
owing to insufficient Appliances TO
procure further explorations. That
oil exists here is undisputed, and
will only be a matter of time when
it will be tapped and brought to
the surface.
There is always a healthy de-
mand for crude oil and situated as
it is near the railroad is the more
valuable. A big consumer would
be the Southern Pacific railroad
which has formerly entered ,the
field as purchaser of petroleum.
II is reported that the management
of that company has had seven
locomotives changed to crude oil
burners during the week just closed,
and that two purchases of oil in
bulk have been made by the cor.
poration, one of 10000 barrels and
the other of 10000 barrels.-Pros-

ACCORDING to the corrected du-
plicate assessment list of Graham
county for the year 1897, the as,
sessable property amounts to
S2,00S,4 19.88 which will bring a
revenue of s76,320.l2. This lifts
the county from fourth to third
class county. In this change,
however, the increase ofexpenses
only amounts,'to about $500, and
the revenue from the additional
property over what it has hereto
fore been will much more than
cover this amount. With the rate
at what it now is in six months
more the county will probably be
on cash basis, which is very in
couraging.

RUPTURE CURED: Ne RAIN ,,;..

THE article on the first page,
"Can our Irrigation System be
Improved" found origination in
the fact that the directors of the
Union canal have advertised water
for sale for delinquent labor asses
sment. While we believe that the
step taken is not entirely justified
by the bylaws, yet thorough in
vestigation shows that the officers
are not entirely TO blame, but the
bad system employed in ditch
management. In our article sug-
gestions are made which would be
al Improvement, for under our
present bylaws it is difficult to see
how water can be sold for delin-
quent labor assessment, for nearly
every stock holder generally holds
receipts not reported to the secre-
tary; then again labor assessment
cannot become delinquent so long
ass furnished when called for no
matter how much the owner owes.
We know it is hard to collect
labor assessment, but people who
bear their just proportion of the
burden will not submit to being
sold out on account of o few lag
CARDS. The only remedy is to i'm
prove the system. The article is
applicable to all canals laboring
under these difficulties.

Buckley O'Niel in letter to the
Prescott Courier, roasts Gov. Nc
Cord in great shape over the prs
on contract. He says under the
contract the Improvement COM
pany may lease the prisoners to do
work anywhere in the Territory
and that the territory will simply
receive zo-ceats per day for each
convict ih canal stock that this
labor is supplied to build, but
which will likely be used on the
s. p. road bed. Bucky implies
that it is gigantic swindie, that
no canal will be built, that the con-
tract was made for the purpose of
swindllng the Territory, and that
several men will get rich by leas-
ing the convicts to railroad or min
ing companies, and that the canal
will not be built. We have not
seen a copy of this contract, but
we do not believe its provisions aye
as Bucky says; we think the con.
yicts will be used on the canal and
no whore else. Time will tell,
however, and if 1T proves to be
what Bucky says it will, then he
did not give the governor half
enough. If not, Bucky's position
will not be an enviable one.

1t has been known for years that
tapeworms infest domesticated poultry,
and that in some cases they cause seri-
GUS epizootics among fowls. The out
breaks thus far recorded have occurred
chiefly in Europe, and as natural out
come almost the entire work which has
been published on these parasites is the
result OF European Investigations. The
literature upon the subject is accord
ingly in Latin, German, French, Danish,
Italian, ETC., while in the English lam
guage we have only a few short no.
tees concerning these worms. Generic
and specific diagnoses Of the parasites
Of this group are almost unknown ar
ticles in the English language, while
as yet we have absolutely no reliable
data as to how many species of tape
worms are found in American poultry.
Several outbreaks Of tapeworm dis
ease have been noticed in fowls In diff
ferent parts OF the country, and upon
various occasions specimens have been
sent to the bureau for Identification.
From table showing SO recorded
species it was noted that different
tapeworms have been recorded from
pigeons, 2 from turkeys, IL from chick
ems, 2 from swans, z from geese, 16
from ducks and l from an ostrich. One
form has been recorded as common to
pigeons, chickens and ducks, forms
as common to ducks and geese, / form
as common to geese and swans, as
common to pigeons and ducks, and l
as common TO pigeons and chickens.
The treatment of tapeworm disease
In the domesticated fowls must for the
present be more or less experimental,
ly limited. The first rule to be carried
out in all cases of diseased animals,
whether chickens, turkeys. geese, ducks
or others, is to isolate them from the
rest OF the flock and keep them con-
fined until they have recovered. The
second rule is to destroy the droppings
Of all animals known to be infected
with parasites, or il the manure is
needed as fertilizer it should be treat
ed in such manner as to kill the oya.
These two rules can be easily carried
out, and il a poultry raiser or a stock
raiser is not willing to set aside a
small yard for the isolation of the sick
animals, where their droppings can be
easily collected and taken care of ey-
cry day, it is almost useless for him to
administer anthelmintics to his fowls
or other animals. The chief drugs
used against tapeworms are: Extract
Of male fern, turpentine, powdered
kamala, areca nut, pomegranate root
bark, pumpkin seeds and sulphate of
copper (bluestone).

Standard Variety OF Chickens.

The Barred Plymouth Rock is OF a
srayish-white color, regularly crossed
with parallel bars Of blue-black run
ming In straight, distinct lines
throughout the entire length of the
feather, and showing on the
down or under color Of the
feathers. The barring is somewhat
smaller on the hackle and saddle
feathers than on other portions Of the
body. The bird Is of medium size,
with broad neck, fiat at the shoulders,
the breast is full, and the body broad
and compact; medIum-slzed wings,
that fold gracefully, the points being
we'll covered with breast and saddle
feathers. A medium-sized head. orna-
mented with upright, bright-red comb
and wattles; large. bright eye, and
yellow beak, legs, and toes. places the
picture before us in its entirety. The
difference between the Barred and the
Pea-comb Barred is that the latter has
small, firm, and even pea-comb, In
stead OF single comb.
For the farmer or market poultry
man they are favorites, being medi-
UNI size, well proportioned. with a
deep, full breast, making most adj
mirable bird for market purposes.
They are hardy. mature early, and
make excellent broilers from eight to
twelve weeks old. They are good lay
ers the year round, and In winter they
lay exceptionally well. Their eggs
are brown in color and average eight
to q pound. They are good sitters
and excellent mothers.
The Barred Plymouth Rock, besides
being practical fowl, is also one OF
the most sought after by fanciers. No
class is better filed at the average
poultry show Of the country than is
theirs. Their graceful figure, upright
carriage, and active natures endear
them to all as a farmers fowl. There
Is fascination in breeding them for
plumage, the more regular and even
their barring the better. 1t re-
quires much skill to breed them for
color, and two matlngs are generally
used for breeding. An established
rule for mating for cockerels 10 to use
a standard color male with medium
dark females, and for pullets, use light
male and dark females. The double
mating is resorted to by many, yet the
writer has seen rare specimens pro-
duced from single matings. The char
acterlstics of the Barred Plymouth
Rock are noticeable in the other
Plymouth Rock classes. excepting
that of color. The size. shape. general
outlines. and qualities are the same
IN the other varieties as In the Barred
The White Plymouth Rock Is pure
white In plumage throughout, and the
