The UNION ACKN0wLEDaEs the re-
csipt OF copy Of tho historical
sketches, poems and addresses pre-
pared for the proper celebration OF
the birthdays of Washington and
Lincoln. They are prepared and
sent out by Mrs. Helen L. Grenfel,
State Superintendent Of Public In
struction. Knowing Mrs. Grenfel
personally we think we can under
stand and appreciate her suggestion
that in connection with proper OBJ
seryance OF Washington and Lincoln's
birthdays, the school childlen of the
state also take into consideration q
brief review of the history of Colora-
do. This is proper and wise, and
We hope and believe that our Walden
teachers, not to be out done by 9th
ers throughout the state will devote
portion of the coming exercises TO
the historical sketch of Colorado and
also that our boys may try to emu
late the noble example Of Washing
ton and Lincoln, two Of Americas
greatest sons. The selections
throughout are all most excellent.

The UNION CALLS attention to
the town ordinance published this
week for the regulation Of the digging
Of water closet vaults, building OF
chimneys, etc. 1t is = very proper
law, and when fully enacted ought to
be rigidly enforced. Complaint has
been made to the editor as Health
Officer, that the condition Of some
closets in town Is a menace to the
public health, which is doubtless true.
But now, since proper ordinance is
passed, those nuisances ought to be
removed.

If You HAVEN'T got ranch in
North Park, get one quick. If you
can't handle cattle or sheep, raise
hay, for that is not only staple ar

from year to year. One cattle man
recently made an offer to hay man
to contract his hay, regardless Of
amount, for seven years at big
price. What do You think of that2

little plat Of spare ground, try the
growing of some OF the numerous
grasses ths. arc advertised by the
seed catalogues. Consult the best
catalogues and SEQ il you can't Sc
lect some two or three varieties and
give then, q trial this spring. One
OF the test that we have heard OF for
slkali soils, Is Australian Salt Bush.
It is said to be an excellent hay and
yields as high us Eve tons to the acre
Then there is Teosinto, Bromus liner
mis- and Spell that might be tried
and possibly successfully raised in
the Park We know it will pay to
plant timothy and also alfalfa. Try
some of the mixed orchard grasses,
they ure hardy and good ylelders.
Our rancbmen must sooner or later,
get out of the rut of such excessive
irrigation to raise the wild grasses.
Try something new. Experiment a
little; it won't cost much and might
result in making discovery that
would be worth thousands OF dollars
to the people of North Park. And
above ali things, don't forget to plant
small fruits, goossberries; strawber-
ries, raspberries, currants; and try
few new vegetables every year. Get
put of the old ruts and do something
new.

The company is erecting store at the mines. and all the indications are that Picacho is to become one of the greatest mining camps in the United States.

MINING NEWS.

Tucson Post Not far distant from Clifton are the Shannon cop per mines. which during the year have been equipped with a 3OO-ton shelter. A concentrating plant will be put up this year. These mines have been developed during the past year, and the large bodies of copper ore mark them as con stant producers for many years to come.
 Tucson Post: In the Clifton Morenci district there a great many copper mines which have been developed during the past year. The American Electric Company has secured some claims which have received their attention dur ing the year. All about that dis trict there has been great activity during 1901, and its future never was brighter.
 Tucson Post: At Morenci there Is 1,0O0-ton smelter and a 5OO-ton concentrating plant, the latter an acquisition of the past year. Forty tons of copper are produced every day at this camp, and during the year 1901 it made wonderful strides coming into the front rank of cop per producers of the southwest. The camp is a very important one, and the mines are found to be very rich.
 Prescott Courier: J. H. Hise, one of the men who makes the wheels of industry revolve hereabouts in no uncertain manner, has just returned from the Placeritas section, where, at depth of 175 feet in his Massa- chusetts mine, he has an ore body four feet wide which carries S3O a ton gold. Mr. Hise Is also running a tunnel in the Blackberry claim woich adjoins the Massachusetts. He has let contract to run the tunnel in 500 feet.
 Prescott Courier: Chicago capi- talists are figuring on taking hold of the Nick group of six claims located six miles west of the old Campbell and Baker ranch and be- longing to NJ. A. Perkins. The claims are purely prospects, but ore taken from the surface has as saved as high as 30 per cent. cop per. The company proposes to sink 450 feet on the group, and pay therefor S100,000 if the property proves as good as surface ndlca- tions promise.
 Prescott Courier: Lord Thurlow is a recent arrival in Prescott from England. He is accompanied by Baron Van Rosenberg, a noted civil engineer. Lord Thurlow is presi- dent of the Arizona Parent Mining Company, which recently pur- chased the Baca grant in western Yavapai county. The grant takes in both mineral and grazing land, and is about twelve miles square. Itis understood that extensive min ing operations on the grant are con templated.
