HIDES AND Ns'

MT. Fl. w. w. Hawkins to the Cudahy Packing company.
 Range News: j. F. Stanley, of Texas, has discov red sure cure for fever ticks which is to apply Beau mont oil, gredsng the stock well from horns to hoofs and in ten days repeat the dose. Kerosene and all other oil dips are too severe because they make the hair come of.
 Stockman Bayless & Berkelew, the Pima county cattlemen, are getting to be we'll up in the rank of baron~. They are constantly adding to their landed possessions along the San Pe- dro river, among the latest to sell to them being J. 5. Warner. This is the second ranch in that same locality purchas d within few weeks by that enterprisng firm.
 Stockman: Speaking of the cattle shipments made from Tempe one who has figured it out says that if the shipments of the past two months were placed together in one train, it would be mile long, or about one hundred cars, and would require ten engines to draw it. Tempe is COW center of the valley.
 Tucson Post: W. s. Sturgis, the Arivaca cattleman, is spending the week in Tucson, having delivered 1000 head of cattle to buyers here. Mir. Sturgis is one of the pioneer cat tlemen of Southern Arizona, and his many Tucson friends are always glad to see him. He came in inst in time to lend helping hand in the city campaign.
 Range News: The cowboys along the San Pedro valley are making prep arations to attend the dance to be given Christmas Eve by the Greene cattle company at Naco. The affair promises to be the dance of the season. Ben Sneed and Frank Mousen are being ably assisted by the citizens of Naco and the boys expect to have a good time.
 Globe Belt: Sam Hinton came in Sunday from his ranch on Coon creek, to attend court as witness. MT. Hinton is quite an extensive cattle raiser, and reports that live stock is in good condition with plenty of feed although it is somewhat dry. He has a number of fig trees on his ranch, besides other fruit trees, and had two crops of figs this year; also other fruit and all kinds of vegetables.
 Stockman: Territorial Veterinarian J. c. Norton spent several days in the vicitity of Bisbee last week on official business. The doctor, as we'll as the Live Stock Sanitary Board, are alive to the interests of Arizona caJtlemen, and everything pertaining to the sanitary condition of the territory Is entirely safe in their hands. They are fully acquainted with everything that is going on.
 Tucson Post: Frank M. King the Tucson cattle commission buyer, toured the section around Tucson with SIX cattle buyers in tow, but was unable to make any purchases, the cattle being held too nigh. This being demonstrated he left with the buyers for New Mexico. where cattle are not held as high as in Arizona, while the freight rate from New Mexico points to California is the same as from Ari- zona points. This would indicate that cattle on Southern Arizona ranges are scarce aud those who have them are not anxious to sell unless

Captain Ahern, In a recent report,
.aIls attention to several obstacles in
The way Of immediate success in lum-
bering in the Philippine Islands, the
most serious drawbacks being lack Of
good roads and skilled labor. Forest
roads and river driveways are almost
unknown, and present methods Of lum-
bering are slow and expensive. The
natives, he finds, are not skilled work
men. and though receiving very low
wages. their work is found by no
means cheap when one considers the
cost Of telling and hauling a cubic foot
Of timber to the shipping point.
The forest lands Of the Philippine
Islands. It Is estimated by Captain
Ahern. cover 40,O0O,O0O acres; larger
in extent and greater in value than the
forests Of India. There are 3S5 species
OF timber-producing trees, and about
SO more species as yet unclassiiied. In
cluded IN the above list are very hard
woods, capable Of taking a beautiful
polish; woods that resist climatic IN
iuences and the attack Of white ants
still others that are especially. suited
for sea-piling or for use as railroad

Prof Michael l. Pupin is a slav. COM

try, he was sent to a military school.
He ran away in 1874 and came to this
country. The appearance Of New York
struck the young slav with terror. He
was unable to ask for a direction, and
every business seemed barred against
him. He was without a single friend.
Like most immigrants In his posi-
tion, he went to the country and began
work on a farm as a day laborer With
In a month he had learned to speak
enough English TO warrant his return

How Minister WI squeiehed an Untrutii-
fui Correspondent
One Of the most commendable char
acteristics Of the Chinese minister at
Washington is his franksess. He does
not hesitate to express his opinion up
on all matters that are brought to his
attention. One day he was visited by a
Washington newspaper correspondent,
who Is perhaps not alone in his profess
sion in regarding himself as a great
man. Before he had learned anything
whatever from Mr. WI. Mr.. Wu was
plying him with his usual questions.
When the query as to the amount Of
his weekly stipend was put the cor
respondent heaved up his chest,
stroked his mustache with pride and
prepared to astonish the simple celes-
tial "One hundred and fifty dollars a
week." he exclaimed 1t is too much. p
came quick as a shot from the minis
ter's lips. III Is altogether too much
you are not worth more than s25 a
week"
Later on. by dint Of cross-examina-
tion OF other newspaper men. Mr.. Wu
learned that his S150-a-week visitor
had prevarieated 10 the extent of about
$50 per week. The next time this gen
tleman called at the Chinese legation
and sent hfs card TO the minister he
was accorded an audience, but the FIRST
thing the minister said TO him was
you lied to me about your salary. II
you win lie about such a thing as that

trust you have nothing 70 tell you.
I want to revise my former estimate of
your value-instead Of being worth $25

berry in his garden two years, during
which time the new plants varied into
a form indistinguishable from the or
dinary cultivated sort, though quite
different at first Many other in
stances might be cited Of plants propa-.
gated by vegetative methods, which
have varied into distinct varieties.

stantly on the watch for sporting

Is fixed by vegetative propagation.
Many forms with cut leaves. varieglt TED

flowers Of different color from type
