HABITS OF THE sHAD.
Interesting Facts About It's Incoming
From the Sea.

TTOni Tic OSds
The shad spends part of its life
at sea and part of it in fresh water.
At the approach of the spawning
season it comes in from the sea and
seeks the fresh water streams to
spawn. At the close of this season
it goes to sea again, there to remain
until the spawning season again re-
turns.
1t is not known absolutely wheth-
er the shad remains in deep water
in the ocean off the approach of the
river whence it came or whether in
winter it goes south into warmer
waters; but it is commonly believed
that when the shad returns from
whatever point at sea it may to
fresh water it comes back to the
river in which it was born; but
percentage of the shad do not re-
tu1U. It may be great percentage.
It is certainly the expectation
whe1 shad fry are placed in such
river as the Hudson that the young
fish which survive and go to sea
will return to the Hudson. Here
the shores Of Long Island and New
jersey would serve as a great fun
mel to guide the fish, if they needed
guidance, to the opening to the bay
and river.
It is not supposed, however, that
the shad of a river basin, like that
of Chesapeake bay, for example, re-
turn each group to its own particu-
lar stream. In Chesapeake bay shad
would come in from the sea togeth-
er, but once inside the bay they
would be likely to seek each the
most convenient of the streams
emptying into it.
Shad have sometimes been caught
in New York bay in the early part
of the season with the roe much ad-
vanced- These may be simply indi-
vidual cases of early maturity in
shad belonging here. Shad CORE
spondingly late have been caught
here. Roe shad have been taken in
the bay as late as August, but gen
orally the shad come in with the roe
in the condition that might be ex-
pected in fish that knew where they
were going and when they were go
ing to get there, and fishermen in
cline to think Of the early shad with
the advanced roe that it is one that
from some cause, perhaps stress of
weather, has oyerrun its river.
That the shad does not always
seek its own river is plainly shown
on the Pacific coast, where the shad
is not native, but was introduced
from the east. Shad were planted
there chiefly in the Sacramento riv-
er, but they have now spread all
along the coast, as far north as
southern Alaska. There is, however,
along the Pacific coast cold cur
rent which the shad does not seek
to pass. It is found in the bays and
estuaries and can be caught the year
round, and the natural barrier that
prevents its making an of1ng has
doubtless led to its general move
ment along the coast.-New York

CHINA AND GLASSWARE.
When Broken, Don't Be Too Hasty Ia
Throwing 1t Away

~ SHihS - away
Because glassware, china and brio
a-brac get broken is no reason for
throwing them away, for unless some
of the pieces are lost they can be
patched and glued together and
made to look like new, if one is
careful to fit the edges closely to-
gether. They should be practical
for use, too, if water or liquid are
not left standing in them.
Clear glass is the most difficult of
these to mend because it must be
done SO expertly to prevent the
crack from showing.
The best kind of glue for clear
glass is made from a solution of
two ounces of isinglass and half a
pint of gin poured into an open
mouthed bottle and set in the sun
until it dissolves. 1t should be
shaken well every day and before
being used should be strained
through a clean lawn cloth.
When ready for the gluing the
broken glass pieces should be well
washed in hot suds, especially Oh
the edges, dried, and then with a
small camel's hair brush the cement
should be put on the edges of both
pieces and when they are nicely fit
ted together rubber bands OF clean
strips of cloth should be bandaged
tightly around them to hold the
edges well together until the glue
dries.
IF the cement has been properly
made the break should really not be
visible when dry, for the reason
many cracks look jagged when
mended is because the edges have
not been well joined and, bubbles
of air getting in, reflect the light,
making the ragged, broken lines
glarinsly apparent.

THE COMING FAIR.

Fair time is rapidly drawing near l' is the one greatest all-territorial event of the winter season and is of espec- ial importance to the people of this valley who naturally fill the office of host. The first territorial fair was a magnificent success. The second fair was still better. The third fair will eclipse any former effort if Maricopa county throws the same enthusiasm into the project, that has marked the two former exhibitions.
 Most encouraging letters have been received by the fair management from the other counties and it is confidently expected that they will all be repre- sented by larger and better displays than before and that they will each contribute a larger attendance of their citizens during fair week. There is no reason why Maricopa county should not excel her. former achievements in as great ratio as the sister counties are preparing to do.
 IL has been a prosperous year. the farmers have had good crops and it is sincerely hoped that each has laid aside some worthy fruit of his labor for exhibition purposes. The horse men and other stockmen have more thoroughbred horses. cattle. hogs. sheep etc. than ever before and pre- sumably they are in better condition. The thing to keep in mind is that the fair will be held earlier this year than heretofore and no time should be lost in preparing for it.

Gooo WINTER BUSINESS. - S

Henry yesterday returned from Cai-
 fornia where he has been spending several weeks with his family. While LIr. Henry was engaged in deep sea .nshing and other timely sports. most of the time. he learned during his trip
 that the prospects are good for a larg- eI number oc tourists in Phoenix this winter than usual Many who spent last winter in California were not well pleased with the amount of rain in that state last season and are looking to Arizona as a better wintering place A number expressed their purpose to Mir. Henry of looking over the valley with a view to investment. The largest question now presented is the scarcity of cottages for rent. Things are qui- eting down in California and many who hold high priced land there are considering favorably the propositions here in land which is just as good bus can be bought for much less. Mir Hen Ig thinks also that the irrigated lands are attracting just now more attention. fostered by the amount of advertising irrigation projects have been given and b. the wide publicity through the congress.
