Sugar loses $4,000 and the rest OF

You think that a heavy toll! Then,
says Mr.. Kaufman, you DO not know
the amount of destruction which sin
gle insect can effect in the pursuit OF
its living. The Hessian fly for exam
pie, has far outclassed the busy bee as
model of industry, for in the instance
of this insect alone the damage done
to grain in America, since we began to
keep account of it, has amounted to
considerably over $2O,OO0,0OO.
Far better, however, is the record of
the cotton lea fworm which, though j.
is less troublesome than Of old-and
for that you may thank birds-stiil
exacts yearly tribute of from $5,000,-
900 to 10, 100000. This and other IN
sects make the cotton losses aggregate
$50, 100000 and make you, madam
pay more than you used to for your
batistes and lawns. On the other hand
insect eggs which the birds upon your
hat would ordinarily destroy, are, wheG
deposited in grains, hatch among the
stored products and cost us 100000
900 a year.

SUPERVISORS HELP CLIFTON.
Appropriate $l2OO to Assist Town nj Public Improvement on Chase
 Creek.
Creek.

The board of supervisors, in regu-
 lar session last week, demonstrated that it desired to treat the town o1 Clifton right by coming to the assist. ance of the Town Council with an ap. propriation of Sl2OO for the construc. tion of a rock wall on Chase creek, connecting with the present wall and extending to the mountain on the south side of the creek.
 It is estimated that this work will cost in the neighborhood of S3OOO and as the town treasury could not stand an expenditure of such an amount, the business men and property own CTS of Chase creek, as well as citizens of other portions of the town, through Henry Hill, presented a prayer to the board of supervisors requesting assistance i: this public work. This wall has been an absolute necessity for the protection of business and residence property on Chase creek even since the first flood several years ago The bed of Chase creek has filled to such proportions that unless the proposed wall is built heavy dam age will result the first time the creek gets on rise. It will be re- membered that the present rock walls on Chase creek. which cost considerable amount of money, were built by the Arizona Copper company and private individuals, but the money gave out and the work was not completed.
 The completion of this wall means a great deal to property interests on Chase creek, and for this reason our citizens feel very grateful towards the board of supervisors for the con- sideration they have shown in the matter. This work is to be done by the town and the council should take the matter up at the earliest possible date

Some Fine Fruit.

J. J. Brown, who has charge of the old Harper ranch and fruit orchard, located about six miles above Clifton on the Frisco river, this week pre- sented the ERA office with a box of the finest apples eyer exhibited in any fruit growing country. They are the largest and finest flayored apples ever seen on the Clifton market and excell anything that has ever been shipped iu from the outside. They were of the Winter Permain, Ben Davis and Arkansas Black varieties, which have reputation in all fruit growing sections. In size they are standard, but in flavor they will establish a new reputation for this class of fruit.
 Mr. Brown states that he has $50 trees, all of which are loaded with fruit, it being necessary to use props to hold the limbs from the ground. The trees have yielded more bou1te- ous this year than ever before and it is common thing fer him to haul the fruit into market by the wagon load. He has delivered several tons to the local market already, and still has five or six tons more to gather. In addition to the apple crop he has also supplied Clifton with a large amount of peaches, they also being of excellent quality and size.

More Good Work by Our Fire Company.

On last Friday afternoon the fire alarm was turned in and the A. C.. fire company was soon on the scene with plenty of hose and water. The fire started in one of the residences on the hill opposite the A. c. store and had a good start before it was discovered. The roof was a solid mass of flames when the boys arrived. Connections were made and within a very few minutes a big stream of water was flowing on the fire, and the flames were soon extinguished with very little loss. Had it not been for the quick action of the fire boys, who answer calls in any section of town, there would have been several other houses destroyed The local fire company is now in frst-class working order, it requiring but few minutes to reach a fire in the vicinity of the A. c. company works. Just at the present date they are not prop erly equipped to reach outside dis tricts on such short notice, but as soon as the new fire plugs are located around the town they will be able to give better service.

There were large num- Der of invitations sent out, to which about seventy couples responded, all of whom had most delightful time To add to the pleasures of the even- ing the ladies served delicious refresh ments. Dancing continued until F o'clock. The music, which was of high class, was furnished by the Mel sen orchestra.
 The Dall being under the auspices of the K. of c.

FIRE PROTECTION ASSURED.
Mayor Fraser Has Completed Aarrange-
 mentS-NOrk to be Rushed.

Mayor George Fraser, who was ap pointed by the town council to com plete arrangements for the installa tion of fire protection in the town limits has made his report.
 All sections of town except the residence section of Hills flat had some protection, hence that part of town is to receive the greatest num- Der of plugs. About fifteen new rlugs will be installed, nine of which go to the flat, the others to be distributed in the section of town where there is no protection. 600 feet of new hose and two new hose carts have been or dered. This, in addition to other ap- paratus available, will equip the town pretty we'll. The town will purchase more hose and equipment at later date. This matter is to be rushed as much as possible.

A New Bridge For Duncan.

The eastern end of the coun ty was favored again by the board of super visors when the clerk was ordered to advertise for bids for a.steel bridge to be erected across the big wash be- tween Duncan and Franklin. The old wooden bridge across the wash was destroyed by flood several months ago, and it required some time for the board to become convinced of the great necessity of a new one.
 In commenting upon this bridge the Bulletin exercised a considera ble amount of sarcasm, stating that while Duncan got a bridge ali that Solomonville could get was permis- sion to use the timbers of the old bridge across the San Simon between Solomonville and the depot and dig into their pockets for the money.
 No wonder the members of the board of supervisors are getting gray headed

The High School Foot Ball Team.

With Professor Jamison as coach, the Clifton high school foot ball team has been making a fine showing and are fast getting into trim to furnish a scientific exhibition of the sport. It was a big undertaking but the school has some excellent material with which to produce rattling contributed towards the securing of suits and equi pment and the club is now a reality. For the past month or more they have been drilling until now they are ;n perfect order. Some of the positions are unusually strong. The high school teams of Bisbee and Douglas have been corresponding with the local team and are anxious for a match game with our boys, but as the expense is large item it will take considerable business manage ment to pull off a game in Clifton. The first match games will probably be played at Douglas and Bisbee and the return games will take place here shortly after.
 Our citizens should take a great deal of pride in the high school team and offer the proper support. Should the games be arranged it will be ne cessary to sell tickets in advance of the exhibition. There seems to be little doubt of the success of the club.

Local fans know that it is good aggregation and are al ready prepared to see some good ball games.
 A side purse of s1OO will be put up for the winner of the series. Two umpires will be used; Madden or Quilting for Clifton, but Morenci has not named her choice. These games will be played under the national league rules and special committee will settle all protests.
