 Mrs. Sarah A. McClintock, mother of Major James H. McCintock of Phoenix, died Friday at a sanitarium near San Francisco, after a prolonged illness. She was 75 years of age and came to Arizona in 1879. The remains will be taken to Phoenix for burial.
 MT. Ed. Follett, Arthur Newell and B. Boyle came over to Mesa from Pima, Ariz., with l29 head of horses, which they had sold to King Bros, delivering them at Olsen's ranch, southwest of Mesa, where they will run on pasture and be fattened for the market King Bros. are doing big business in ship ping horses. During last summer they shipped 2,50O head from Apache coun- ty and are buying all the time and shipping to different markets, which seem uncommonly brisk of late.-News.
 Charles Goddard has patent steam sheep shearing plant in operation at Congress Junction. It consists of four teen shears and each Of these machines has a capacity for shearing between 250 and 300 sheep per day. and 1t is said they will get sufficient clip in weight over hand-shearing to nearly pay the expense of shearing. There are about 90, 900 sheep to be sheared at the above place. and with this plant it will be about ten days job. Shear ing is also going on above Moody's place on the Arizona canal.-Phoenix Enterprise.
 Reports have come to town of the wholesale poisoning of sheep on the ranges and in the camps along the Ari- zona canal. It s said that altogether about 1000 have been poisoned. and that one sheepman has lost $50. The poison used was bluestone and white vitrol, which had been strewn over the range, and which lhe sheep, mistaking for salt, had licked. There has been no expression of suspicion AS to the identity of the guilty parties. The sheep are to be removed from that deadly neighborhood to the Agua Fria. Phoenix Republican.
 Arizona fares well in the Indian app proprialion bill, as agreed upon by the house committee on Indian affairs. The sum of s2,25O00O is appropriated for the Apaches in Arizona and New Mexico. and for the Indian school at Phoenix the handsome appropriation of $l5l. 300 is made. This is to cover new building contemplated, as well as the running expenes of he school. For the school at Truxton Canyon. Arizona, the sum of $2O,55D is appropriated. The largest appropriation for Indian schools is that of STA, 900 for he Haskell insti- tute at Lawrence, Kansas. the Phoenix school coming next. For Colonel Nc Cowan's new school at Chilocco, Okla homa, an appropriation of sl40, 400 is made.

"One difference between the re-

FIGHTING THE TRUST.
CattIemen to Build Their Own
Packing Plant.

G. +. Morse, president of the Kan
sas City and Denver stock yards
companies, speaking of the Denver
story that the National Live Stock
association, Western railways and
individual stockmen would fight the
proposed stock yards merger, said:
II presume that this dispatch
originated in the fact that 1 have
recently been called on by represent
atives of some Of the principal live
stock associations of the Southwest
as to the attitude which the Kansas
City Stock Yards company would
take toward the establishment of a
large packing plant at this place to
be owned by cattlemen.
"While in Denver a few days ago
l met j. W. Springer, the president
of the National Live Stock associa
ton, who told me that such an enter
prise was taking form and that this
would be the matter of greatest in
terest to be discussed at the animal
meeting of the association, which
will be held in Kansas City next Jan
nary. He said he thought there
would he no difficulty in raising Il
capital of SlO,OOO,OOO or $l5, 100000
for this purpose, and asked me if the
Kansas City Stock Yards company
would aid and encourage such an en-.
terprise. 1 told him it had always
been the policy of this company to
assist in the establishment of pack
ing houses here; and while was not
authorized to speak for the company
at this time, that 1t was my judg-
ment that if such company should
be organized the stock yards would
be glad to meet it with the same lib
erality that it has shown to other
companies in the past"

Fall and Winter Irrigation Of the
Orchard.

On account of the mild sunny au
tumn weather which usually prevails
in the Holly country young trees will
continue to grow till late in the fall
when there is danger of sudden
set back by freezing unless precau.
tions are taken to ripen the wood by
the stopping of irrigation and culti-
walton. Summer irrigation should
cease by August 10th to Sept. LIST.
After the trees have fully matured
and considerable frost has arrived so
that all danger of second growth is
passed then thorough soaking
should be given to fit them for win,
ter. If the weather becomes quite
cool il October this late fall irriga-
ton can be given at that time and
any time up through November. If
a very dry winter follows it may be
necessary to irrigate again about
January 1st but we usually have
sufficient snow to keep the ground
in good condition if thorough irri
cation is given during October or

November. Moisture is as neces-
sary for the welfare of the tree in
winter as summer, for while the tree
is dormant it still requires moisture
at the roots and most winter killing
is either caused by the wood being
green when winter arrives or by
drouth during the cold weather.
