Roadside Colonies Of Flowers.

Messrs. Editors: One side of our

angle into our neighbors' domains
Great trees OF primeval growth stand
along this line. and the road has
worn deeply into the red clay soil
In front OF them. When the place
came into my possession red clay

bare decaying roots OF the great
trees showed how the span OF their
life was being shortened. Since the
yard Is rolling great volume OF
falling leaves is yearly swept toward
Tits bank in fall b. the prevailing
winds.
We collected stones from the
creek below. from about some burn
ed buildings and from the fields and
built n ledge OF them about a foot
high along the road-line In front OF
the trees. This caught the leaves
into thick layer OF mold every year
and we added stones until the red
banks SeTe covered with a rich coat
Of loan and mold Then we planted

ANSWER by Prof. W. y. Hutt)
Regarding the fruitlessness of the
FIX. | would say that since the fig
Is fertllized from within and not ex-
ternally as are other fruits. Ii is not
question at all OF pollination by
wind or bees. Fig bushes often
throw of the first crop OF brebas be-
cause the fruits have been injured
by the cold of winter If the bushes
are carefully protected and kept
from the cold. particularly from
freezing and thawing they will have
Il much greater tendency TO retain
their frst crop OF fruit During the
summer IL the bushes are subject TO
drought the fruit will not develop
but will remain hard and later will
drop OF. Where fig bushes can be
irrigated they always give much
more prolific crops of fruit. II con-
ditions are not favorable for irriga-
don they should at least be planted
in moist situation where they will
not suffer from lack OF moisture.

ADMIRAL eoopRIcH

Rear Admiral Caspar Frederick
Goodrich, u. S. N, who delivers the
memorial address today at the un-
yelling of the Bennington monument
in San Diego, was born in Philadel-
phia, January z. 1S47. He was ap-
pointed to the navy from Connect
cut in 1861, and graduated from the
naval academy at the head OF his
class three years later. From 1865 TO
1867 he was attached to the Colorado,
at that time the flagship of the Euro
pean squadron. During the TeEel-
Kebir expedition he was the Amer
can naval attache on the staff of Wis
count Wolseley. Later he was a
member of the Endicott board of for
tifications, was the president OF the
naval war college, and the gold med
alist of the naval institute. He di-
rected the last naval engagement in
the Spanish war, the fight at Mama
milo, Cuba He also commanded the
expedition which first drew the fire
of the batteries at Santiago. On that
occasion he was N charge of the
work of cutting the cable connections
with the besieged city. At the time
of the San Francisco earthquake Ad-
mirai Goodrich was in command OF
the Pacific feet. On the day of the
disaster he was nearly 500 miles
away and received his first inteiii-
gence of the event through the med
ium of a stray wireless message. He
steamed to San Francisco at full
speed and rendered notable service
in the period following the catastro-
phe.

HOENlx CHAM Der
: COMMERCE.

The Phoenix chamber of commerce
know a good thing when they see
one, and are not slow, to take advan-
tage of the situation. When the
facts became known that Arizona
was the leading mineral producer in
the United States, the Phoenix cham
Der of commerce clapped its hands
and exultingly shouted, See what
we've DONE" and with the self-con-
scious strut of proud father over
newly born heir, took the entire
credit to themselves. Maricopa coun-
ty is agriculturally rich, but in the
way of mineral wealth it is no dis
credit to her to say that she is among
the small producers and added but
little to the magnificent output about
which such disturbance is being
made. Granted that she divided ev-
emily with her sister counties in the
tremendous outpouring OF mineral
realth, the attitude she is assuming
similar to that of an old hen with
loud cackle over a nest full of
eggs of which she produced but one.
But it is not our intention to mini
mize her claim to the great find, but
to compare the mental activity Of her
chamber of commerce with that OF
other cities. On receiving the news
that Arizona, with an outpouring of
SCI, OOO, 900, led all her sister states
and territories, she heraided the in
formation broadcast ever the country,
and although It was territorial prop
erty by a big jug fat, localized it to
her own advantage. Besides liberal
use of the wires he chamber of com
merce mailed 2eeaz; postal cards
signed by their president and secre
tary. That thetr efforts on behalf of
their city and county may not be
unayailing is the wish of this paper.
But in the meantime we would mod
estIy like to ask what other chambers
OF commerce have been dong? Echo
answers, mot a blessed thing" One
of the grandest opportunities for max.
ing capital in behalf of their towns
and counties is beng allowed to pass
By unnoticed. Go it, Phoenix, Wen
hold your bonnet.
Bisbee daily review., 1908-01-08

Arizona has passed all other states
as a mineral producer. The publica-
ton of this fact throughout the coaTl-
try will undoubtedly attract the al
tention of many mining men who
have been deyoting their time and
money in the past in other mining
sections Of the country where the op-
port1n,ties for finding mineral are
not SO favorable as in Arizona Ari-
IONA, besides being the greatest min
eraI producer in the country has a
variety of minerals TO attract the
prospector and promoter. Copper has
given us the lead in mineral produc-
ton, but we have some good produc-
ing mines in gold and silver and a
great deal of mineral country which
has never been prospected for either
metal. One of the attractions which
should be favorable for Arizona is the
absence of labor trouble During the
history of the territory there has new
er been any trouble between mine
owners and employees of a serious ma
