The Midland Construction company's
outfit excavating the long cut through
the summit east of Globe is making
fair Roadway with q small force. IL
has been found impossible to get men
in Globe at the wages paid (S1.7o) but
men and teams will soon be available
from the grading outfit near San Car
los. We understand Mr.. Garland IS
still confident that the railroad will
reach Globe in October, but it is the
opinion here that it will be December

1t takes from 1000 to 800 bees to
weigh pound. Colonies average
from eight to. ten pounds. Arizona
bees build their own queen cells and
raise their own queens. To keep bees
from swarming the Arizona custom is
ten DAYS. New colonies are formed by
removing comb with the young bees.
The life of queen is about five years:
the life of workers is about ninety days.
The life of the drones is less. The
finest honey as to flavor and color in
Arizona is made from the mesquite
bloom. While very good honey Is
made from alfalfa it Is darker in color.
Bees in Arizona work ten months in
sumo very little honey.-Prospector.
Sometime this fall Temple Bar will

Mohave county expects great things
from the working of these mammoth
bars, and when the machinery is all in

big thing it is. Machinery for months
past has being going to Temple Bar
and being put into place, but placer or
hydraulic mining has been such a new
thing in Mohave county that the people
hardly realize as yet what a great
amount of treasure lies hidden in the
miles of auriferous gravel that line
both sides OF the river at Temple Bar

West Texas is generally supposed to
be purely q stock country. Vegetables
are never thought of in connection
with our mesquite beans and cscti.
Maverick county, however. has some
of the richest farming lands in Texas.
The soil of the vegas along the Rio
Grande is capable of furnishing luxur-
ious growth to almost any kind of
vegetation, and especially is it adapted
to the growth of fruit. Some of the
largest and most luscious
grapes in the whole country are
grown right around Eagle Pass.
Plums, figs, and peaches can be raised
with very little effort, while .such
things as corn, tomatoes, beans, squash,
okra, and pumpkins are equal to any
imported truck. In water melons
Maverick county can compete with
any place in the state. Some melons
brought in from the Quemado surpsss

from east OF the Colorado. Come west,

INDICATIONS are that the wheat crop
this year will be the largest ever
known. 1t Is one OF the laws OF pre-
duction that high prices are succeeded
by increased crops or increased pro-
ductiou, which result in a general low
ering OF prices Of the articles directly
involved. This will almost certainly
result in lowering the price OF wheat
unless something now unforeseen caus-
es another shortage abroad.

The glastonbury Thorn.

At Glastonbury abbey, in Somerset
shire, England, once stood thorn tree
which, it is said. bloomed every Christ
mas morning The first authentic ac.
count of it ever written was in 1772 by
visitor who tells of it in the account
of his visit to the abbey.
The keeper assured him that St. Jo-
seph of Arimathea landed not far from
the town, at place where there was
formerly an oak that had been planted
to his memory; that he and his COM
panions marched to hill and rested
themselves, and that Joseph stuck his
staff in the ground. Now, this staff was
common dry hawthorn stick, but it
grew and first came into full flower on
Christmas day. Afterward the t1ee
which has thus grown and budded like
Aaron's rod, always bloomed on the
day of our Lords nativity and upon no
other day, the flower, like those of the
night blooming cereus, lasting but a
few hours.
Many queer stories have been told of
the miraculous thorn of Glastonbury. )"
1t was said that if the chips from it
were planted they would sprout and
grow like potatoes; that the leaves
cured all intlammations, swellings, etc,
and that rods" cut from it would new
eI leave marks on the children corrected
by their use.
