things on a small scale when they start In reply to query, Mir.
 Packard said that the cattle in- dustry is thrifty. There is plenty of grass on the ranges. Shipments will soon begin and yearlings will bring, say $14 to $15; two year-olds S20 10 $22 and three-year odds 1923 to S24 per head, these prices re- presenting cattle delivered on
 board the cars"
 Range News: w. H. McKittrick of Wilcox had a number of mares rounded up this week and shipped to ]. $. Kennebrew of Coke county, Texas His intentions are to round up all the mares on his ranges and get rid of them in some way. He maintains that the horse does more damage to the range than he is worth. Not only does he destroy the range, but when salt is put out for cattle the horses will congre- gate in such numbers that the cat tie are crowded out. If a saddle horse gets loose and joins band of wild mares, it is either a case of break another horse or run the life out of two or three other saddle horses to recover him again. Mr McKittrick believes there must be something like 1900 stray horses on his ranges. He proposes to do all his power to remedy matters and will endeavor to interest other cattlemen to a concerted effort in the right direction. In the north ern part of the territory the cattle men got together and had round up of horses and shot them down. Undoubtedly a similar action in this section would do much to i'm prove the present range conditions.

HIDES AND HORNS.

Coconino Sun. A train of sixteen cars of cattle and sheep left here last Friday consigned to Los An geles The shippers were: Ed. Geddis, Rabbit Bros, Thomas Friar, Wm. Donaldson, Edward Howell and Walter Durham. Other shipments are being held here owing to the butchers strike
 now on at Los Angeles.
 Prospector: Dr. c. F. Dolley of Casa Grande, who was a delegate to the Irrigation Congress at Og- den, Utah, has recently exper- fenced the danger which exists in having cattle fattened on fast growing Arizona alfalfa, which is getting plenty of water. He has good ranch at Casa Grande, on which he is preparing for the mar ket a trainload of cattle. The Florence Blade says the recent rains made the grass grow so rapidly as to cause bloat and he lost ten head as a consequence.
 Williams News: Sanford Rowe, who has been out in the hills for some little time gathering horses, assisted by c. B. Holloway, came in Thursday with sufficient to make carload. These were ship ped from here yesterday to Cam chester. Okla, where they will be placed on the market On Thurs day also, negotiations were con- pleted by which the 240-acre ranch just south of town, belonging to Mir. Rowe, was sold to Mike Rob inson for $35,00, which was a very reasonable price. Mir. Rowe will return from the east for more horses as soon as he has disposed of this shipment.
 Arizona Gazette: Chas H. Kizer has a record of travelling over 2000 miles in the past thirty days, most of the time on foot, although jumps have been made from one point to another by railroad and stage. The object of his journey, which was begun at Searchlight, Nevada, and which for the time being has ended here in Phoenix, was to cap ture the thief who took from Kizer's desert home a span of mules. It is not the mules Kizer is now so anxious to secure as the thief, and from Kizer's build and mind, it might be well for the fugitive if he would drop dead be- fore he is caught. The expense of the trip is paid by the settlement of Searchlight, whose inhabitants look on horse stealing as worse crime or at least equal to murder. From the last accounts, the man with the mules is in the country near Pres colt, and it is thought his capture will be effected before the end of the week.
 Stockman: Senator B. A. Pack i ard, of Cochise, spent the greater part of last week in Phoenix and | other valley points. Mir. Pack ards mission to the valley at this | time was for the purpose of look ing over the feed situation with a view to shipping in large number of feeders if the conditions were about right. He made arrange ments with Drace Jepson, who has charge of the Jones section near Tempe, to pasture one thousand |

LIVING BY THE CLOCK.
Habit That Creates Wear and Tear on
American Nerves.

Boston Transcript.
An eminent physician, at recent gather
ing of his profession, directed notice afresh
to the daily tension under which most
Americans do their work. We riseA on time,
he remarked, in the morning, whether by an
alarm clock by the call of a servant or by
habit; eat breakfast and read the paper on
time, a clock in every room and a watch
frequently on our hand. We then, on time
meet office and outside engagements, bust
preconsidering the amount of time that will
be required, and timing the next engage
ment accordingly. Often we subdivide this
time and note by our watches exactly how
long We can discuss subject.
This is exaggeration of the American
habit Even such breaks in work as are
compelled by the need of physical refresh
ment are brought within time limits. We
eat on time just we transact all our bust
ness on time. If the typical American were
to be depicted in his most characteristic at
titude il would be perched on a stool at a
quick lunch counter" consuming his mid
day meal in seven minutes at the outside
Doubtless punctuaity is a virtue Doubt
less, also, the practice of doing things ex-
actly on time has won for us, as people
a large measure of industrial success. But
carried to an extreme, as IL often is. il is
wearing to the individual. The people whose
nerves break down from exhaustion incl
dent to overwork are often not much the
victims of overwork as Of the habit of COM
pressing every bit of work within prear-
ranged limits of time. Let any one try the
experiment of doing a given piece of work
steadily and with application, but without
noticing by his watch clock exactly
be amazed to find how much easier il will
go off than when he is timing himself and
scheming' 10 bring the prescribed task with
in fixed number OF minutes.

ELKHART, Ind, July B.-Frederick B.
Pratt, pioneer business man and man.

He was the founder of the Elkhart Car
riage and Harness Manufacturing Com

other manufacturers of various products.
He was born in Springfield, VT, on Dec.
Is. 1872, and moved to Battle Creek, Mich,
in 1s45. engaging in mercantile business
there until 1856, when he came to Elkhart,
embarlxing in the hardware business and
later developing into the carriage manufac-
tory. Thirty years ago his son. William
r. Pratt became his business partner, and
five years later his other son, George b.
Pratt, entered the firm. Ten years ago
they purchased their fathers interest in the
company. which is one of the largest of its
kind in the country. Mr.. Pratt married
Miss Charlotte Byington, of Battle Creek, in
1857, and she survives. He had been a
member of the Presbyterian Church fifty
five years. The funeral Will be held on
Monday.
