NEWS OF BUCKEYE.
The Only Thing Feared Now is too
 Much Water.

Buckeye, Ariz., Jan. 24.-(Specias 1 Correspondence of The Republican)-
 This valley is beginning to take on it's
 old familiar look, plenty of water in the roads and ditches. It would be a
 great relief if some of the farmers
 would take to using the roads entirely | for irrigating purposes and leave their
 ditch dry for the public to use as thor Ioughfares. Unless there is a big rise | in the river this spring the appear ances are that we will have plenty of water. But as so much snow is re- ported in the mountains we are look ing for our dam to take a trip down the river about the last of next month. E. T. Stewart arrived home from a six months sojourn in the vicinity of Salome on the new A. and C. railroad.
 He reports things in a flourishing con- dition in that part of the country. Matin Lewis was a business visitor to Phoenix this week.
 Mrs. Dora Barker is very i'll, having been confined to her bed for the past four or five days There seems to be some kind of sickness or complaint in almost every home just now. The most common complaint is kind or spreading sore that breaks out on hands faces. It may start from a pin scratch and get to be as large as a half dollar before it is stopped. Two or three of these on a persons hand or
 face causes a good deal of pain and ln- convenience.
 I wish to correct a mistake it our last budget. It read: The Rev. L. h

property for the purpose of taxation Copies of these decisions are being prepared and will be printed for dis tribution among various tax officers of the territory.
 It has been suggested and the sug- gestion has the approval of the gov ernor, that a meeting of all the county assessors be held at the capitol in Phoenix, on Thursday February 1st next, to discuss matters of valuations of property for purposes of taxation. That such a discussion would result in great good is obvious. A uniform rate of assessment throughout the terri tory is contemplated by law, and a conference of the various assessors would do much to promote that end.
 There are many other matters con- nected with the official duties of as sessors that can be profitably discus sed at sucn a conference, not only as to the mere fixing of valuations, but the manner of making assessments generally. The attorney general has signified his entire willingness to at tend the meeting, and render such as- sistance as he can.
 The importance of such a meeting

and the good that can be accomplish ed by a full and free conference are so perfectly obvious that I need not point them out in detail. I have written a like letter to the assessors of the other counties asking them, as l now invite you, earnestly, to meet with the various county as sessors at Phoenix, Thursday, Febru- ary l, 1906.

would recommend to you, gen
tlemen of the City Council that we
reject his report, and employ inn
riediatly, some active, competent
and reliable bookkeeper to audit the
books Of the city and render a.
statement TO the city conncil by the
first Of March, or at least by The
first of next quarter. l think, gen
tlemep Of the City Council, that we
should give reasonable time for
this report to be made, and require
the man whom we employ to enter
into good and sufficient bond that
the report will be accurate and
that it will be made within the time
specified
Another matter to which | would
call your attention is the gambling
resorts. l am reliably informed that
in private rooms adjoining some Of
the saloons in the town that there
is gambling. | understand that in
the second story Of the building oc-
cupied by the different places,
that there is the worst form Of
gambling The doors are securely
locked; no entrance can be had to
these private apartments by officers
without first the occupants Of these
apartments being informed by cleo
trlcal devices, that the premises are
being invaded by all enemy. The
officials Of the police department
claim that it is impossible for them
to catch the guilty parties; that
when they start to enter these places
the button is touched and the game
is called off.
All this, gentleman Of the city
council, is in defiance of law and
good morals. l wonld recommend
that the City Council employ
secret detective to make an investi-
cation of these conditions, and ar
rest the guilty parties.
There are some other matters 10
which al later date will call your

CLOVER AS HORSE FEED.
II Not Cut in Time It Becomes Dusty
and Makes Poor Feed-Cut
When It First Blooms.

One great objection to clover as q
horse feed is the fact that 1t Is fire.
quently not cut In time and becomes
dusty. The formation of the plant II
such that the leaves go to pieces very
quickly If they are permitted to be-
come too dry before being cut Clover
cut when the first blooms appear and
made into hay properly and properly
housed makes good feed for any kind
of stock, including horses. 1t has
more substance than timothy and this
Is important in a horse feed, as the
stomach of the horse is smaller than
that of some other farm animals.
But when clover is fed to horses II
cannot be given in as great quantities
as can timothy, says the Farmers Re-
view One of the advantages in feed
ing timothy has been that ,Ae horse
could be fed more than he would eat
and then not eat so much as to injure
him. That was because the same bulk
contains less substance than does
clover Thus, the scientific feeder
knows that he must be careful as to
the amount Of clover hay fed, just as
he would be careful of the concentrates
fed. He would not think of giving the
horse an unlimited supply Of grain OF
any kind. How much to feed is a
problem that must be worked out by
the horse owner. for we have all kinds
of horses, engaged in all kinds OF
work.

AN old LANDMARK GONE.
Fire Destroys The Old Horse Barn s
E. Of the Square.

At about 5 p. m. Tuesday fire
broke out in the horse barn on
the south east corner of the
square, occupied by Silas Robe,
and owned by Fred Zutavern 1t
had evidently been started in the
hay NOW. BY what means no one
seems to know. Mr.. Robe was in
the country at the time, and there
were no employees about the barn.
When the alarm was given the
whole upper part was in flames and
the roof was falling in. Flying
embers started small blazes on the
roofs of the Lobdell G Malta
blacksmith shop and the Stauffer
building across the street west.
There was but little wind, else
there might have been more dam
age.
All the stock and vehicles were
got out, and Mr.. Robes loss will
probably be covered by $50 to
500. Mr.. Zutavern estimates
his loss on the building at $500 to
$500. There was no insurance on
the building or contents.
The fire department made a
mighty quick run, but the fire
had practically consumed the build
ing before water was thrown.

THE FEED OF COWS.
Sudden Change Should Be Avoided,
as 1t Seriously Affects Milk
Yield.

Sudden changes of feed should be
avoided. especially ii very marked, as
in changing from dry to green feed,
says Prof. W. j. Fraser, of the Uni
versity of Illinois. Special care is re-
quired when cows are put On pasture
in the spring and when first turned on
rye or clover. Only small quantity
of green feed should be given at first,
the amount being increased as from
day to day the dry feed Is reduced. If
care is not exercised at such times,
the cows system is likely to become
deranged and the milk will then have
very disagreeable odor. but II this
method Is followed the system grad
ually becomes adjusted to the new
conditions and no bad results follow.
When feeding turnips or cabbage,
the difficulty Is frequently experienced
Of having .disagreeable odors In the
milk. This difficulty may be largely. II
not entirely avoided BY feeding after
milking rather than Just before. as The
peculiar odor produced by these feeds
will then leave the cows system be.
fore the next milking time.
