CULTIVATED ORCHARDS.

Correspondence Of The Progressive Farmer
There is little question in the mind
of any intelligent farmer about the
value of orchard cultivation up 10
the bearing period, but not all agrees
that it should extend beyond. Never.
theless, there is nothing worse for
an orchard than bare soil left TO
take care of itself. Weeds will in
var1ably appear in such a soil, and
these will do considerable harm In
robbing the land of the richness
which the trees need. There must
be some counter balancing method.
OF the many experiments made with
orchards that have been treated with
and without cultivation after the
trees began to produce, the great
majority showed decided improve
ment in favor of those which have
been cultivated. This, however,
does not mean any more than mere
surface cultivation, and for that
matter not much more than surface
scratching of the ground in the
spring sufficient to make grass or
grain seed catch. There is no better
plant fertilizer than good rye 4urned
under or allowed to decay in the
field. Every crop of this that we
can raise and return to the soil
should increase the fertility, so that
the young and old trees will make a
new growth.
The plowing of the surface in the
spring need not interfere with the
roots of the trees. Indeed, special
care should be taken TO avoid any
such contingency. The soil can
easily be stirred to sufficient depth
to make the seeds grow without
touching the roots. If these latter
run very close to the surface, the
plow or oultivator should not be run
up near the trees but as a rule this
stirring of the top soil every year
tends to make the roots of the trees
SOOA . 4O"OA 4OSOAS 0AN Al O4OA6EO6
that have been cultivated from the
beginning little trouble will be- ex-
perienoed with the surface roots.
Sow from one to two bushels of rye
to the acre, so that the ground will
be covered before winter This will
help to protect the roots of the trees
from the severe cold, and the follow
ing spring when turned under the
rye will add rich fertility to the soil.
The advantage of a high crop of rye
in the orchard in the fall in those
States where the winter freezing is
apt to injure fruit trees cannot be
overestimated. The tall rye proves
most effectual blanket to the tree
roots and trunks, and few trees are
injured from freezing when treated
in this way. The thick rye is really
warmer and superior to a covering
of snow. When feed is scarce the
temptation to cut the rye in the
orchard is great, but do not yield to
it. No orchard can thrive which is
systematically robbed of it's fertility.

: The weather is fine and the farm

ting ready to plant big corn crops,

Farmers are right much behind.
Nearly all are busy planting corn.
There will be more Seeded this year
in this section than usual. Several
are planting corn where they had
cotton last year. There will be more
peanuts planted and less cotton. Fall
oats and wheat are almost failure.

Wheat and spring oats are looking
we'll for the backward spring. The
farmers are working with a vim,
though. Sad to say, so far as we
have learned, most of the crop will
be cotton in our seotion.-D. E. O.,

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreadful disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundations of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The pro- prietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials.

Making Himself Felt.

The Washington Post of Febru- ary Sd contains the following:
 "All we want just at present to assist us in handling the Indians successfully is an appropriation from the government for dam on the Gila river at San Carlos" said Capt. L. w. Mix, of Nogales, Ariz., at the Arlington. Capt. Mix is one of the best known men in the Ter ritory, and is in Washington to assist Delegate Marcus A. Smith in his effort to secure statehood for his constituents. Capt. Mix is typi- cal "son of the West" stand: ng about six feet and weighing almost 200 pounds.
 Capt. Mix did not get his title in actual battle, having been as he puts it, "too young to go to war in 1861 and too old to fight Spain" In San Francisco, however, he was chief of crack blttery of artillery Battery c, Second California mili- tia. This organization bore the same relation to San Francisco that the famous Seventh did to New York. Capt. Mix is one of those Western types who can straddle a horse and ride fifty miles in an afternoon, hunting and herding, and then lead a cotillion in the evening with all the style and grace of an Apollo of the metropolis With Capt. Mix in the lobby of the Arlington yesterday were Delegate Smith and Col. Billy" Rice, of this city.
 "The construction of the San Carlos dam," resumed Capt. Mix would result in making every Apache of the San Carlos reserva' ton self-supporting. The reserva tion is about the size of Massachu- setts. The river runs through it 1T such a way that the dam at San Carlos would make natural reser voir, which would be supplied by the whole valley of the Gila. The country thereabout is extremely fertile but nothing can be raised because there is no water. Mos irrigation schemes are for the ben. eft of a few people, or. at the best for the benefit of some State. Oul plan is something which will bene. fit the nation. Those Indians about 5000 or 5000 in number, are now almost wholly supported by the government"

HIDES AND HORNS.

Stockman. The uate TOT 1On. Colin Cameron's annual Hereford sale at Kansas City has been fixed for May 7 and s.
 Stockman. Robert Mullen, the hustling young cattleman of Tempe made shipment of four cars of beef cattle to the coast on Wednes- day of this week.
 Stockman: The branch weather bureau at Flagstaff reports that the snowfall there for the month of January amounted to little over three and one-third fe, t, while in the mountains it is estimated that nearly twice that amount fell.
 Stockman: Hon. George Pusch, of Tucson, representing his butch ering firm, was in the valley this week to look over the beef situation. It is the regular order of things to supply all leading markets with Salt River valley feef.
 Stockman: Cattle shipments from the valley are retarded some what just now owing to shortage of cars on the $. P. road. The road is adding to its rolling stock con stantly, but owing to the popular ity of the road, the traffic is also on the increase.
 Stockman: Mir. H. P. Anewalt, the genial general passenger and freight agent of the s. F. F. & P. railroad was in this city Thursday to personally superintend the load ing and shipping of a large con signment of wool over that road. The annual wool shipments from valley points,each spring make a long string of cars and a desirable freight item for the road.
 Stockman: Dr. J. c. Norton who went to Cochise county last week with Dr. Melvin, returned to this city Saturday morning. Dr. Melvin was taken sick at Benson and was unable to proceed with his investigations at the time. He was made comfortable at the home of Dr. Shaw, the government in- spector, and was again joined by Dr. Norton Thursday morning, when it was thought the Washing ton representative would have sui ficiently recovered to enable him to pursue his investigations as originally intended.
 Stockman. Hon. E. s. Gosney of Flagstaff was guest at the Adams on Thursday. MT Gosney is the Arizona member of the Ma t.onal Live Stock association, in the affairs of which he is an active interested worker. He is also ex tensively interested in the woo and mutton interests of Arizona being leading sheep owner of Co conino. That sheep are still per mitted to graze the forest reserves is largely the result of a we'll di rected, personal effort, backed by live organization of fiockmasters which goes to fully prove what car be done when persistence and firn organization go hand in hand.
 Graham Bulletin: J. H. T. Cos per thrifty cattle man of the Blu' country, spent Sunday in Clifton MT. Cosper says that he has never experienced more favorable win ter for cattle, but thinks that more snow would be beneficial. He re ports that Harper x Depee hav' constructed most excellent wagon road mp through that section, ove
