SHORT ON PRINTERS.

The Prison Mirror, 6 raper published by the inmates of the Saltwater prison, has suspended publication, for the reason that there are no longer any printers or newspaper men confined there The prison is still able to provide it's own chaplain, however and ought to be in position to starta bank or two.
 The above item is from the newspaper news department of Press and Printer. of Boston, under the heading of ''Sus- pensions" The Mirror was a unique publication, and 1t is too bad that it was forced to give up the ghost.

 There IS hardly range in Arizona that is not cursed with at least one rider who makes hls living off his neighbors. The fellow referred to turns in about ten head of cattle to the as. sessor and has anywhere from fifty to one handred. To "run" that tremend- ous number he IS usually found travel ing on the range 300 days out Of the year, with his riata and a "running iron" Once in while, after one of his visits, cowmen will find few likely big calves ear-marked in the rider s mark, though not branded Usually, you see, cowboy looks only at the ears.
 The rider often has q family and usu- ally a half dozen dogs and for all he has a plenty of beef He sometimes kills as many yearlings and -year-olds in year as his total band is supposed to number. He joins in the round up, and it is found he has done his brand l ing before hand and that he has good sized calves running alone far away from any COWS of similar irons.
 Yet this ''mayerick hunter" is ofter employed by reputable cowmen and thus given eountenance and financial assistance. In most communities ht is usually known, however, and noth ing save the slyest of work saves hin from the penitentiary.

A Point in Preserving Fruit.
Boston Budget 1


 A very good authority on fruit pres crying considers that the plan followed by many yhousekeepers, of using small proportion of sugar, and in conse- quence boiling the preserves longer, is a faIlacy. as the more sugar, used the greater the bulk of preserve obtained, less being wasted in long boiling evaporation. while the flavor of the fruit is more retained. A quick frs should be used and, of course, the pre- serve continually stirred, the scum be- ing taken off as it rises. To judge if the preserve has boiled long enough, drop a little into glass of cold water. It does not spread or mix, 1t is done enough. Or another way is to drop 8 little on plate. If it does not run on the plate. 1t is sufficiently boiled and should at once be poured.

 tance, and there are many things which could be done to better their condition.
 We are not quite sure but what 1t rests with the sheepmen of Arizona, however, and particularly with the sheepmen of Apache county, that the act codifying the live stock laws did not include the sheep intrests. Per- haps Senator Earth of that county will have a recollection of the position he took at that time. Alter the law had been drawn up and was ready to pre- sent to the legislature, the sheepmen of Coconino county and other sections sent representatives to Phoenix to nave their interests cared for by covering the sheep industry in the law. placing the care of the sheep interests Tn the hands of the Live Stock Sanitary board, | just as were the cattle interests. It was believed to he good idea, and met with the strong approval of the boaro' and resulted Tn the law being rewritten and made to include the sheep indus | try. This was presented to the leading | members of both houses for their con- sideration before introduction, and 1t met with the full approval of all except Senator Bart h, and he declared that It was a plan whereby the cattle lntereets desired to get the sheepmen under their thumb with the object in view of crushing the industry, and that he would strongly oppose the whole meas ure unless the sheep matter were ellm- mated. Not wishing to jeopardize the

 We give space to the following article from the last number Of the south west ern Stockman, the representative live stock paper of this territory. As the editor of the paper is Hon. Chas. w. Pugh, secretary of the Live Stock San itary board its ntterance has somewhat of an official character:
 The attention of sheep owners is called to communication in another column of this paper, from Hon Chas w Pugh, secretary of the Live Stock Sanitary board J. H Greer, recorder of this county, addressed an inquiry to MT. Pugh as to the proper manner of recording sh ep brands under the new law, and the communica- ton of Mr. Pugh is the answer thereto, We be- lieve the plan proposed in the communication to be the only correct and proper mode of re- cording sheep brands in the future. and we com mend the efforts of the Live Stock Sanitary board in attempting to provide the same protee- tion to the sheep industry as is being done for | the cattleinterestS.
 | And while we are on this subject, we would | say that if Mir. Pugh's reasoning is good as it | seems IO De- ana the prOtect0n or the Sneep 1n' interests of the northern tier of counties of this territory is to be entrusted into the hands of the | territorial board and sheep brands be given a place on the pages of the territorial brand book then, in justice and fairness to all parties rep resentative sheep man should be on the board AS the board consists of three members, let two of them be cattle mt n. but as the sheep inter ests of this territory at east half that of the cattle interests, and One-third of the whole live stock interest, it should have a representative on the board that seeks to protect all the varit d live stock industries of Arizona
 In case an objection is to be taken to a sheep man on the board, We thick a man should be appointed who is interested in both industries TFere are several such in both this and Navajo counties, and any one of them would be well qualified to look after the interests of both classes of live stock -S'.

The Experiment. Station.

The San Francisco Chronicle has the following good words to say of the Ari- zona Experiment station at Tucson:
 The seventh annual report of the Arizona Ex- pertinent station shows that it is faithfully en- deavOring to perform it's allotted work. The most important agricultural interests of Arizona are located in the Salt River valley, but we pre- sume that decent regard for a fair division of whatever was going caused the location of the Agricultural College at Tucson, and the experi- ment station almost necessarily went with it. The result has been the enforced maintenance of sub-station at Phoenix with some inevit- able loss of energy Agriculture in Arizona is confined to the land which can be irrigated, and there are, we think, few extensive tracts outside the Salt River valley to which water can be brought without he expenditure of larger sums than can at present can be obtained. By some curious dispensation, probably of politics. the land on which the Az ricultural college is Situ- ated is found unfit for any agricultural purpose. and the unhappy professors are obliged to keep school in one place while carry ying on farming operations in various other places, which is not conducIve 10 economy or efficiency. and yet we suppose that if the results in any way fall short of the ideal it will be the poor professors who will be blamed for it and not those who created the conditions for them. Of course, the report does not say anything at all like this and yet it was the reading of the report which has sug- gested the parapraph.
