There was large patch of rnesoGite in the southeast corner of the tract, which was not cleaned off ia 1s1S. Every year he said, the area of mesquite was reduced and the land was brought under cultivation, but it was not until 1879 that the en- tire tract was under cultivation.
 Now and then. a question is asked Mr. Nelssen which be does not an- swer readily. Instead of scratching his head to agitate his tagging mem ory as the average man in such cir cumstances does Mir. Nelssen gently rubs the side of his left thumb with the fore fiuser Of his ri9h' hand. and the whole thing comes to him.
 But curious thing happened yes terday In the course of the inquiry his own tract of land was reached and though he had settled upon 1t as late IS 1886 his recollection of events con corning it was at first rather hazy aud he suggested that perhaps some other person whom he named might lnoW more about 1t than he.

PHOENIX, June 11.-So far the most interesting development in the hearing of the case of Hurley vs. Alb bolt and others, is the remarkable memory of Peter Nelssen. the owner of a tract of land southwest of the city. Early in the trial of the case it was brought out that MT. Nelssen was more or less familiar with all the lands. at least those under the Salt River Valley canal. which had been cultivated within the last gen eration or since 1873. when he came to the valley. He therefore became the chief witness and succeeded in astonishing the court and the attor- neys by the extent and accuracy of his recollection of the early settlers
 In every case he has been able to tell who settled upon d certain tract of land, the date of the settlement the number of members of the family of the settler. their names and when they died. 4 great deal of informa ton he has disclosed has been veri fled, in fact so much of 1t has been verified that all parties are disposed to accept as absolutely true all that is not susceptible of verification.
 He has frequently been on the stand, and in fact is called to the stand when it seems impossible to secure testimony concerning some ob- scure fact in any other way. Tester. day he was asked about a tract of land which it had been stated be gun to be cultivated in 1873. That

 NEW YORK, June 11.-Stock mar ket opened slightly lower and the ses- sion was one of long and gradual de- cline. When it was announced that Governor Hughes had vetoed the two cent fare bill it strengthened to some extent, but the buying power soon lost its force. Professionals aided in supporting the market for time and the tone was healthy one. Then came the news from London that con siderable notice was being given the Approximation controversy and with the report came heavy selling orders in our market. This was the cue for general selling and the list was hammered without mercy We be- iieve that we are liable to have breaks from time to time. such as we had today and continue to advise the sale of stocks on ali sharp bulges.

 BOSTON. June live have re- ceiyed some very definite information on the Utah Consolidated property. The management will not permit of an examination of its property nor will it give any information as to underground conditions, so that we have been unable to confirm our Te- ports.

Mir. Rescue is said to have recon. mended that the present plant be Op- erated as long as permitted by the courts after which shipments would

Neglected Old Orchards.

In almost any part of Our State can
be found orcha fds of advanced age
which do not par, and it Is readily seen
that something Is wrong. The problem
Of %renOvating al orchard is sometimes
a large one and often proves to be very
expensive. The causes which are re-
sponsible for IN Improbable orchard
are many and may be BRIEFLY stated
thus: Unsuita Bile varieties, poor drain
age, unfavoratle site, poor soil, neglect,
age.
The first and most important point
in rejuvenating an orchard is whether
or not the trees are worth saving. The
or too far gone to be responsive to
treatment. If the trees are on wet
land, cut them down or thoroughly
drain the sell. as a fruit tree will new
er thrive with WEE feet. Apple trees
over t~hirty-Gix or thirty-seven years old,
which have long been neglected, are not
worth saving; likewise the cherries
over twenty, the pear over twenty-five
or tweaty-three. the plum over fifteen
and the peach over twelve years of age.
In fact, the trees which should not be
worked with are those with a high
head, partially decayed trunk and in a
generally run down condition. If moth
ing more serious than insects and fun
gous diseases Is present, the orchard
may be very economically reclaimed

Variation in Plant Foods.

Plant foods vary in composition, and
the most fertile farm may lack in some
particular element of fertility. Manure
that does not contain all the essential
elements that tend to ~recuperate the
soil is not in itself complete. 1t will,
of course, enrich the soil, but as the
soil does not receive from the manure
all that 1t yielded in the shape of food,
no figures are necessary 10 demonstrate
that In the course OF time the sale OF
foods (mostly of %nitrogen), including
potash, phosphates and other mineral
matter. 1t Is admitted that q grass
plot will be largely assisted to secure
nitrogen by the rains (Which bring
down ammonia and nitric acid), and
with clover with the aid OF bacteria),
but these sources do not admit of de
irving the potash ard pnosphates. The
nitrogen SO secured is but a small pro-
portion as compared with that daily
sold in the milk, the total amount of
milk annually leaving some farms be-
ing many hundreds of cans. The
amount OF nitrogen, potash and phos-
pilates sold from farms that provide
for large herds can 10 easily be esti-
mated, but suffice it to say hat the
quantity, though not apparent. is very
large. and in the course of a few ear
the soil must certainly be affected.

Contract for Canned Meat Placed
in Chicago-British War ONCE
Has Every Confidence I'm h
Stockyard Products.
Another large contract for timed
meats for the British Army has been
placed with Libby, McNeill & Libby Of
Chicago, through the Director of Sup
plies Department of the British War
Office. This contract was a competi-
tive affair, England, Canada, Australia
and Brazil entering with tenders. 1t
was quality and method of packing that
got the Chicago firm the business. Gen.
eral Clayton Of the War Department
in an interview, according to the LON
don Standard, stated that the British
Government is highly satisfied with the
Foodstuffs supplied by Chicago, and
they have every confidence in the manu-
features entering Britain from the
Stock Yards.
The foods for the Army will be
packed under the supervision of British
representatives at the invitation of the
packers" he said. Although the Gov
eminent is ready to rely upon the new
Pure Food Regulations recently inaug-
urated in the United States. All the
talk about the incficiency of the new
law is sheer nonsense. British officers
in America have gone fully into the
matter and the authorities are per-
fectly satisfied to place orders in Chi
cago when conditions call for outside
supplies of canned meats"

Ample and Pear Mites.

In q study of the mites on apple and
pear trees, five species have been rec
ognized by the New York station:
Eriophyes malifolia, E. pyri, E. pyri
~varlolata, P~hyllocoptes, schlechtendall
and Epitrimerus pyrl. Eriophyes pyri,
commonly known as the leaf-blister
mite, is the most abundant and the
most injurious species. The structure,
habits and systematic position of these
pests are discussed and a list is given
of all American species of the family
with their host plants IN an analyti-
cal table for their Identification.
Particular attention Is given to f.
pyri, which produces the well-known
blister spots on the leaves of pear and
apple trees. On apple trees the Bills
tiers may have a reddish tinge, but us
ually are less brilliant. The mites in
jure the fruits md fruit stems as we'll
as the leaves, and have beer found on
go varieties of apples. After a little
experience the injuries caused by mites
may be readily distinguished from
those due to spraying or to the apple
rust. A parasitic mite was found
preying upon the blister mite and is
described as a new species under the
name Seius pomi.
In experiments on apple trees a com
parison was made between kerosene
oil, miscible oil, kerosene emulsion.
whale-oil soap and the sulphur washes.
the latter being prepared according to
various formulas. On account of its
harmlessness, cheapness and efficiency,
kerosene emulsion diluted with five
parts Of water and applied during the
dormant season is recommended as the
most practical remedy for the treat
ment Of apple orchards infested with
the blister mite. In pear orchards this
pest may be controlled by proper prun-
Ing and by spraying with kerosene
In the fall or spring.

Two of n Kind.

ais of Ibsen and ~StrinGberg roles have
brought her international reputation.
was recently the center Of a party Of
women in a little restaurant on the
East Side. During the curse of the
dinner stories went round, and Miss
Englund told some incidents of her APP
premiership upon the stage at Stock
holm under the personal direction Of
that great actor, August Lyndberg.
Lyndberg was an august person and a
strict dlsciplinarian. One day a young
actor who had already been the victim
of several reprimands and eve scold-
ings came in very late. He was hag-
gard, d~isheveled and showed very plain
ly that he had been drinking. In a very
dignifed manner Lyndberg. who had
been watching for him, approached and
said in impressive tones: "Er-er-
been on a drunk again?"
$50 have l." responded the young
actor, quickly.-Bohemian.
