Sheep and the Forest Reserve.

The shipment of cattle from this sec tion this year has been as usual very heavy. Cattlemen are beginning to realize that this is not the ideal cattle country. E. St. George Creighe in Apache county sold out and moved to Colorado last year. The Phelps boys at Springerville are preparing to leave and the large concern of Smith and T left several years ago, going to British Columbia. In Navajo county Henry Running is out of the cattle business entirely and has invested in sheep. The Esperanza cattle. company is ship ping their cattle to ranges in the Ra- ton mountains in New Mexico, while the Aztec Land X Cattle company Is reducing their holding here as fast gs convenient. Up to date this spring they have shipped out over 5000 head with further shipments to follow in the near future. This leaves the country practically in the hands of the sheep men to whose purposes it is more nat urally adapted. During the early spring and summer it is impossible to run sheep in the valley of the Little Colorado, Verde and Salt rivers. As no rains fall in those localities during the spring and early summer, the whole country at that period is nothing but parched and arid desert devoid of vegetation. The rains which fall in the summer and fall commence in July and August. They start the grass and prepare this region for winter range. When the cold weather sets in in the mountain section the sheep are moved out and winter in those valleys. Intbe spring the feed in those valleys become

exhausted. Drought, intense heat, lack of shade and water necessitate driving them back into the mountains, where the melting snow and early spring rains have produced excellent feed. Plenty of water, good feed, fine shade and low temperature combine to make the mountain section an ideal summer range.
 It will be easily seen from this that, owing to the physical configuration of northern Arizona, it is especially adap- ted to the sheep industry. IL will fur ther he seen that these two sections of it, with their opposite climate and nat ural conditions, are indispensable to a successful operation of sheep raising, and that without free and unrestrict- ed use and occupation of both this in- dustry will be utterly ruined. This summer range lies wholly within the bounds of the forest reserve, and should this reserve ever be closed against the sheepmen, this industry, which is now the greatest source of revenue to nOrth- ern Arizona, will be totally and per- manently ihilated.-HolbrOOk Ar

q musical farce comedy which is said
to be undoubtedly Mr.. Du Souchet's
greatest effort. Messrs Burt and Sim
mons have put together an organiza-
tion of beauty, novelty and scenic ef-
fects rarely seen on the boards of the
popular-priced theatres, as the talent
employed, the cOstuming devised and
the scenic environment make 10 an ex-
pensive aggregation. The singers,
dancers and comedians and in fact
every member OF the company, is an
individual artist. Wherever this COM
pany has appeared it has been con-
ceded to be the strongest organization
OF the kind extant and it is said its
specialties are brighter, more unique
and original than any competitors. Its
tour has been a triumphant march to
the plaudits of thousands. The per-
formance is permeated with sparkling
wit, irresistible mirth and sparkling
originality from beginning to end, com
