RECLAMATION OF rHE GROUND.

The soil of our tract, warm, sandy loam well adapted to gardening operations, was levelled, ditched and boidered at a contract price of 20 an acre, considerably less than the average for the locality, reckoning the labor of men and teams at current rates. In addition, barbed wire and posts for fencing cost S60l0; lumber for headgates cost S39.57; drive well point and pipe, pitcher-spout pump and a barrel, Sl3.45; small lumber twc-rooIn house, including five and one half days carpenter hire, SI52.75; and brush-roof shelter for horses, about S5.0O Only skilled labor employed in leVelling, bordering and ditching the ground, and for part construc- ton Of the house, is included in the above estimates, as the common labor required or dinarily would be- and in this case was fur nished by the farmer himself.
 To bring this ground under cultivation and make it habitable for a small farmer and his family, as stated above, therefore required a cash outlay of about S40069 In addition, in the average instance must be included a team, wagon. blow, harrow, having equip ment, shOves hoes and other small tools.

CROPS AND MARKETS.

The crops selected for the season of 1906 were Early Rose potatoes, White Bermuda onions. ROckyrord cantaioupes, Dwarf Cham piOn and Burpee'S Quarter Century tomatoes, and alfalfa, besides 4 few hills of watermelons and Sundry vegetables.
 The produce was marketed in Yuma with the exception of tomatoes, which, for the largest part, were expressed to Tucson and Bsbee. The following statements for the various crops are on the basis of net cash re- turns to the small farmer, who with al, aver age family of five and @ team of horses is as- stunned to do the work required. as explained below. Items necesSitating cash outlay, as seed. irrigating water, and crates are deducted from gross returns Water costs an average Of 50 cents for irrigation per acre for the crops grown The yields in certain instances are low, due to the unimproved Ondition of the soil, which, like desert soils in gervi,,l. was low in nitrogen and organic matter. Some small salty areas also affected yields locally White Bermuda onions; AT acres; Seed planted Sept. 27-Oct 8, 1905. Young onions transplanted, Feb. 5-9, 19O6. Crop matured about June l.

STAND FOR YOUR RIGHTS

The time has come in America
when we must stand up for the right.
There must be no quibbling, no COM
promise with wrong, no hesitancy in
taking a position alongside the great
charter of American liberty, the con-
stitution Of our country. Some of the
men in the country must stand up for
this view, if the country would sur
vive the impending fight for the fu-
ture. We cannot afford to persecute
any portion OF our population. "All
men are created equal" Let not this
fact be overlooked. Each man should
enjoy life. liberty and the pursuits of
happiness.

cred himself of pronouncement upon
the Negro. He says the Negro is in
ferior to the white man, and valves
his religion. il he ever had any, to join
hands with the vile demagogues Of
the land. 1t is sad commentary
upon the Christianity of the world to
have bishop of the Church of Eng

of God being inferior to other men
Where is the religious sentiment that

Rruial sSault.

A brutal criminal assault was perpe
iraied late Monday afternoon upon Miss
Gladys Shelton, the l. year-old daughter
of Benjamin shelton, farmer who lives
six miles from I.ynchburg. in Amhers'
county. Five negroes are under arrest,
Sheriff Beard having made race for Two
miles across Amherst county with them
to prevent them being taken by mob.
There ia intense excitement ia the county
and the criminal will probably be lynched
unless unusual precautions are taken 10
prevent it. The girls condition is seri-
ous.
The negro knew the girl was at home
alone. He went to the house and asked
for something to eat which she proceeded
to get for him. In the kitchen he at
tackled her and threw her to the floor

be placed his lips over her mouth and
bit her lips together
After the assault the negro pinioned
the young lady's arm and took her to n
stream a short distance from her home.
She thought he was going to drown her.
He changed his mind, however, when
the creek was reached and released her,
telling her to go, and he disappeared.
More dead than alive, the girl reached
her nearest neighbor, quarter ola nila
away, consuming an hour to cover the
distance. She collapsed and it was some
time before she could relate her story.
The alarm was given and in several
hours the country WAS being hunted over
for the negro.

no doubt but the raVisher is iu charge
and is in the Campbell county Jail, eigh-
teen miles from the scene of the crime. II
