 TUCSON SNOW STORM-Tucson ! had a snow storm early on New Years : day that was a snow storm in truth and not a mere hint of the beautiful. 1 The Citizen says every mountain range in sight from Tucson was GOV
 cred with white and the snow in the ! city fell to a depth of two inches. For
 time it fell so thickly one could 1 scarcely see across the street and
 snow balling was generally indulged ! in. It is the first climatic demonstra-
 tiOn of that kind that Tucson has had
 for a number of years.
 ! superintendent Of the territorial fair, traded overcoats one day last week,
 and though he got as good a coat as he disposed of, he is not satisfied with
 the trade for the reason that his new coat is a couple of sizes too large. The
 coat ne now has is a cravenette of a
 dark gray color. The trade
 was made at the meeting of the shrine
 last week and the other fellow did all the trading, MT. Clark taking what i was left. He has been so busy check ing up fair business since then that he did not inventory his possessions until yesterday when he found he had the wrong coat.

Norton, together with two married sons and their fami 1 lies, and three other children, recently arrived here from Rocky Ford, Colo, and have leased and taken possession of a 160 acre farm belonging to Lin ] coin Fowler. They have a carload of ] household goods and probably will s lease or buy other property beside. q These three families all come from : country made famous by sugar beets 5 and canteloupes, but which it is be- 2 lieved has fewer opportunities for the g poor man now than this valley, for the s reason that climatic conditions here 2 are equally as good or better, and the a price of land cheaper. The new com a CTS have had experience in beet and ! canteloupe culture, and will devote themselves very largely to the raising
 of the same crops here,
