PROCESS OF
 REFORESTING
New Trees for Santa Cruz
 and COChiSe Counties
Tue Varieties by Which the Old Are to be Sue ceeded.

Nogales, Ariz, Sept. 25.-(Special correspondence of The Republican.)- The rangers on the three forests lately combined under the name of the "Garces" national forest, cover ing a number of thousands of acres in Santa Cruz and COchise counties. and a part of Pima county, have been active of late in gathering the seed of the several species of pine and other trees in this section. R. G. Wilson, the supervisor. states that there has been lately collected from this forest about 15O,0OO seed, or an equivalent of ten pounds, of the Ari- zona long leaf pine and an equal quantity of the seed of the Chihua- hua pine, which will be shortly for warded to Washington for use in the experimental nurseries maintained by the forest service for testing of such seed and raising of young trees for reforesting purposes. MT. Wilson also states that a hundred pounds of the seed of the Emory oak have lately been planted in several places on this forest, the method used being the broadcast scattering of the seed on the hilIsides and other places most suitable for it's growth. In this way by allowing nature to superintend the raising of the young trees the matter of the future possibility of covering these barren hillsides with valuable timber will thus be tried out in a practical way, as the young seedlings will have to contend against the enc mics of their kind to be found in their environment, such as grazing stock. and will thus be able to show whether it will be likely to survive under the ordinary range conditions Should this test bear favorable re- suits the forest service will go fur ther in the experiment.
 On October f there will be cele- brated at Magdalena. Sonora, the Fiesta de San Francisco Javier. Mag dalena is one of the oldest towns fin this part of Sonora and this fiesta is of long standing and one of the most sacred and celebrated fiestas in all Mexico, drawing a great multitude of people from all parts of the republic.

THE FUTURE
 OF KELVIN Ii is Fully Assured by Its Varied Resources
Features of the Town of Today and the Certainty of It's Tomorrow.

Kelvin. Sept. 25.-(Special corres- pondence of The Republican, )-As Kelvin is daily approaching the point of progress and stability when it will be counted upon as one Of Ari- zona's principal working mining cen ters of copper and few of the other important minerals such as gold, lead. iron, coal and sulphur, it will no doubt prove very interesting and instructive to the people in the east and west who are interested in the many valuable properties in this sec tion to read and learn something about this wonderful mineral wealth producing spot Kelvin is located in the east-central part of Pinal county and at the junction of the Gila river, the second largest in the territory, and Mineral creek, which obtains it's name from the highly mineralized section which it runs through. Kel- win is about eighty miles southeast of Phoenix, the capital, and the Phoenix and Eastern railroad runs through town. The altitude is 1,SO0 feet. making it an ideal climate the year round. During the summer months if the heat becomes too ex- cessive. a ride of sixty minutes will put a person in a climate equal to the best summer resort in the terri tory. The real hot weather does not last long. so that the ordinary person can stand it very well. Our winters are the finest in the land. never any snow, and the nights just cool enough to make a blanket or comforter com fortable.
 We have three large mercantile houses here. each with a general stock running into thousands of dol lars. The Hercules Mercantile com pany, Chas. McNeely, manager; Hen ness and Griffin Mercantile company Jack Henness in charge. and the Pinal Mercantile company, l.. R. Jen- kins. manager The Pinal Mercantile company was recently burned out, but it will soon be doing business again when the insurance is adjusted. Each of these stores is up to date and carries everything necessary. They are general stores. as their names in dicate. and each has a large branch

store at Ray, a few miles away We
 also have a number of other stores
 which all go to meet the many de-
 mands of a growing mining camp. There is a first class bakery here owned and operated by Paul Riedel.
 There is one large hotel, the South

 accommodate a number of people. It
 is under the control of Chas. McGee.
 who always has a pleasant and
 cheery good word for all Going
 with the hotel. we have a number of
 nice, clean lodging houses. We take
 good care of our population and also
 the many visitors we have, by al-
 ways keeping our restaurant stocked
 well, and also having the best cooks
 obtainable. There is the White
 House. operated by the estimable
 Mrs. Stuart; the popular cafe of the
 Southern hotel, the Emmet lunch
 room and the Adobe restaurant. At the present time Mrs. Stuart is the
 only one operating but the others are all in readiness to commence. Jack Bates. proprietor of the Kelvin liv- cry stables. always has a good sup ply of saddle horses and various rigs on hand.
 Kelvin can also boast of an up-to- date ice plant, J. I. Coleman, pro- prietor. This plant is always open to visitors.
 The visitor to Kelvin is always ex- tended a cordial welcome and we want people to come and visit us and We will soon convince them that we have the goods. At the present time business seems to be picking up a little daily and in six months we all look for a good. steady rush of business in all lines.
 Kelvin is a town of many years standing. There are old prOspectors still here who tell many exciting tales of thirty years back. River side, across the Gila river from Kel- win. was originally the stage center in this locality. when the Globe. Florence stage line was running, but when the Ray Copper company com menced operations at this point about eight years ago the people Hooked here to remain. Jim Elder. Frank Gross and Hank Barton can tell many exciting experiences of those early days. u
 Kelvin mining d5rict has a wide spread reputation as a center for ex- tensive mining operations. The Ray Copper company has large offices in Kelvin as well as mills. pumping plants. machinery shops and various other buildings located here, and all the supplies, etc. for the mines at Ray come from Kelvin. Philip Wiseman is the gen eral manager of the Ray Consolidated Copper company. which is a corpora ton with very powerful backing. The Ray company is one of the largest in this territory and the mining project at Ray will equal. if not surpass, any copper property in the country. It has taken a number of years to get things in shape to operations on a large scale and from the present outlook it ap-

COURT WEEK
 AT FLAGSTAFF
An Unusually Long and h. tereSting Criminal Docket
The Case of Mrs. England Charged With Her Illus bands Murder.

Flagstaff. ArIz., Sept. 25.-(Special correspondence of The RepublicaD.)- DistriSt court is in session this week and the term is expected to be a long and tedious one. The grand jury completed its work Tuesday night, making it's report on Wednesday morning It brought in ten true bills and threw out two cases.
 Wednesday morning the trial cases were begun, the first one taken up being the case of Ada Parks, a ne gress. from Williams, who was charg- ed with robbing a certain negro of the same town of money and other valuables. The case was given to the jury at noon, but it was S:3O that night before it had reached a verdict. The verdict was guilty.
 In the afternoon the case of Ysa- bel Lopez, a Mexican living in old town, who was charged with the crime of assault with a deadly weapon upon the person of Santiago Nuanes, a deputy sheriff of this county, was taken up. The case oc- cupied the afternoon. but the jury was not long in reaching its verdict of guilty.
 Thursday morning the case of Bar bara England, charged with the mur- der of her husband, was taken up. This is quite a notorious case and will likely occupy the rest of the week. It was necessary to examine nearly sixty jurors before a satisfac tory jury could be obtained. At this writing the prosecution is having its hearing, not nearly half their wit nesses having been examined Dis trict Attorney H. F.

euthered that day n storm or any cause

The sources Of the honey are varied and
many. Here a little and there little and
the busy bee gathers its precious stores.
The very earliest flower that peeps out
in early spring is found by the ever
watchful bee. The bees start their spring
work in earnest when the willow and
the maple are in bloom. Indeed TO pass
under either tree when the bees are at
work is to get the impression that a
whole swarm Of bees has taken possession
Of tho tree.
Following this are the various fruit
trees They gather both pollen and honey
from all the fruit trees. The cherry,
plum, peach, pear, etc, but that which
probably is the bees delight as far as
honey is concerned during fruit bloom IS
the apple When this fruit blossom is
gone there is a dearth in honey. Some
little is gathered from the dandelion, but
the bees have little to do until the white
clover comes IN bloom. This Is the real
harvest for tho bees in this section OF tho
] country, and when a colony IS strong
and ready to gather the harvest when
= the white clover comes in bloom It is Won
derful the amount that one strong colony
will gather IN a few weeks
The. white clover honey Is a white honey
and Is probably as good If not better
than any honey produced.
The tulip tree Is an excellent honey pro-
ducer The honey from this Is a little
darker than the clover honey but is OF an
excellent flavor.
The locust tree is another tree furnish.
ing large amount Of honey
Another tree Of great value for honey
is the linden or Eastwood. In some locall-
ties these trees are so numerous that d
large amount of fine honey is gathered
from them.
The raspberry furnishes a fine favored
honey and is ap articular favorte OF the
bees. They win even despise white clover
when they can get the raspberry. The red
clover does not furnish nectar for the
honey bee as the honey bee is unable TO
reach It but the humble bee luxuriates in
the red clover.
The Alsike and Alfalfa clovers are rich
In honey for the honey bee and they viii
gather a rich harvest from them.
These are some OF the sources from
which the bees get their supplies OF
course they gather from the hundreds OF
; flowers that at various times during the
year are in bloom. but none Of these are
plentiful enough TO produce a harvest for
the bees.
4 In the Rocky Mountain region from
Denver to California, the sage brush fur
nishes a rich harvest for the bees and In
Texas the bees depend upon the horse
mint for the harvest while in Florida the
/ mangrove fills their hives.
Can we have too many bees7 Yes. II is
possible to have so many bees IN any one
locality that # will not be profitable to
J keep bees. The numbers that can be
prohtably kept in any one location varies
with the richness Of the bee pasturage.
But In ordinary localities II Is not wise to
/ have more than hundred colonies
] II every farmer kept bees II might not
be best for each one TO keep over eight
or ten colonies. These would probably
gather all the honey that could be obtain.
