N..publicau: Ii. .. obvrey, train- master of the s. F., P. k F., came down from the north last night. He says twenty-five cars of cattle will be shipped from Del Rio, north to Pres colt, into Colorado, starting next Monday. Mir Storey says that while cattle have been suffering elsewhere in the territory they have been look ing we'll on the ranges about Del Rio, and since the recent rains the ranges are showing up excellent. But there will not likely be more shipments un- til the fall season opens.
 Stockman: Hon. J. V. Vickers, known all over Arizona as one of our leading cattlemen, and who is iD' terested in several large cattle con-. panies in Arizona as we'll as other territories and states of the south. west, recently made deal in Okla homa for thirty-six sections of school land-23, ,040 acres flor the firm ol Vickers, Vail x Gates whose prin. clpal office is in Los Angeles. The lease runs for period of three years, at lease rental of S20 per section, making a total revenue of s2,l60 foi the use of the school land for three years.

HIDES AND HORNS

Ilt says ulot uuO iohOoS hNfo Cs Galloways at the ranch now number ovtr 200 and more stock of the same br, ed will be added this fall.
 Winslow Mail: Burt Mossma2. sup erintendent of the Aztec Land K Cat tie Co, spent two or three days in Winslow, the first part of the week, seeing to the shipment of HOO head of cattle to Kansas and Colorado pastures.
 Stockman: The recent shipment of beef cattle from this valley to Clifton, purchased by John Cromb, the buyer for the Arizona Copper Co.'s meat market, were shipped from Lordsburg over the narrow gauge road, making the second cattle shipment to go over that road.
 Stockman: A. c. Mcqueen, mem- Der of the livestock sanitary board, was over from his home near Mese on Wednesday. MT Mcqueen has one of the best farms on the south side of the river, where he raises blooded stock, as we'll as variety of other products. MT. Mcqueen is hustler and consequently make a success of all his undertakings.
 Star: w. s. Sturgis came in from La 0sa Tuesday morning and left for the Pacific seaside yesterday morning. Mir. Sturges reports an abundant rain fail in southwestern Pima. The ranges are heavily coated with grass, which in many places is tall enough for hay-making. The cattle are in prime condition, and the outlook for abundance of pasture for the next year is most flattefing-
 StOckman: Cattlemen of northern Arizona are making occasional ship ments of cattle to the Denver market, claiming they can do better there than by taking offers made on the range for their cattle This is not doubted, for It is known that offers for cattle from the northern counties have not been fiattering, notwith- standing the fact that the cattle on the ranges there are of good quality, and should command the average price.
 Republican: J. W. Brown, travel ing freight and passenger agent for Atchison, Topeka < Santa Fe, with headquarters at El Paso, was in town yesterday. MT. Browns heaviest business is in the southern part of Arizona, and he says the commercial status constantly grows stronger. Unlike Arizona, says MT. Brown, Texas is importing many cattle from Mexico, but the price is less than paid last year, Mexican cattle being inferior to those of Texas or Arizona.
 Graham Guardian: J. c. Crowley was in town yesterday and says that Climax Jim and his partner, Coleman, were captured last week on the Chiri- cahua Cattle Co., s range when they had twenty-nine head of cattle and one horse belonging to that company rounded up and ready to drive off.

According to the report of a German
calcium carbide manufacturer, $50 tons
of lime and 615 tons of coal are theore-
tically required TO make 1000 tons of
carbide. But, in practice, 1925 tons of
lime and 40 tons of coal are nescessary
to make that quantity of this valuable
compound. According to this report one
pound of carbide should cost a little less
than 9 cents
