 Tncson Post. T. J Gates, of the Greene Cattle Co.,, was in Bisbee yesterday on his way home from California, where he has been on cattle business. In speaking about the range controlled by the company he said that the outlook is most encouraging for this season. The recent rains have filled the water holes in the San Pedro val lev, ard the grass back from the river is growing we'll Before the rains, the cattle were punched along the partly dried water course, and had eaten off the grass ccm- pletelv; starvation had set in, and many cattle were giving out. As soon as the rain came, the big punches of cattle broke up, and spread out over the range back from the river, and are rapidly re- gaining their strength. Mir. Gates said that the report that the south ern California ranges were in a terrible condition, is a mistake. Those ranges have received plenty of rain, and tht grass is thick and high. His company has big herd of cattle on the Southern California range and he said that these cattle are in splendid shape, all being fat and strong.

Hear the people making kicks,
A. Heavy kicks,
Sorry kicks;
One would think the poor old world was
in a most unhappy fix.
Men are kicking at the weather; they are
kicking at the price
they nave to pay for fuel, that they
nave to pay for ice;
They are kicking at the way
This and that is done today;
They are kicking at conditions as they
loom up everywhere;
They nave kicks to make because
Rascals disobey the laws.
One would think that crime was rampant
and that woe was in the air!
Hear them kicking. kicking. kicking! Oh.
the wild and woeful kicks,
And the kicks concern religion. science.

There are kicks from those who work;
There are kicks from those who shirk;
All the world, it seems, is keeping busy
registering kicks.

Keeping up the daily average of kicks,

Do the everlasting kicks
Indicate a smashup? Nix!
The world would quit revolving II we
didn't have the kicks
From the men who WELD the picks
And the ones who lay the bricks.
And the ones who wear the jewels and
the ones who sing and write.
Never since the world began
Has a point been won by man
Unless he kicked to get it. and did so with
all his might
IT'S a pleasing thing to mix
Gladness in among our kicks
When we may:
But, with gladness or without.
We may never hope to rout
The legions filed with kickers: they'll be
here till judgment day;
They'll be here to make their kicks
Till there's ice upon the Styx,
Till the last grave undertaken the last
coffin cover clicks,
But a lot of us are kicking with no cause
for making kicks.
Without the slightest reason for our
kicks, kicks, kicks,
And never helping any with our kicks,
kicks. kicks, kicks, kicks. kicks,

In some old songs retreat.

Nor at their absence weep
Or possibly you might recall
Them from their well earned sleep
