Swamp lands have often proved unfavorable
for agriculture, even when well drained and
fortified. From the investigations into the
subject in the extensive swamps of the United
States. A. Dachnowski concludes that the loss
of fertility is due at least in part to the presence
in bog water of substances poisonous to plants.
They seem to be produced by imperfect oxida
ton and decomposition of proteins and related
bodies, and it is possible that in respiration bog
plants may differ from others. After the land
has been exposed to the air for time, the fer
tility is restored by oxidation of the harmful
products.

CANTALOUPE SHIPMENTS ID
 CHICAGO IN A FEW DAYS
AN EXTRA GOOD CROP IS THE PRESENT OUTLOOK WITH
 DESIRABLE PRICES ALSO.
July 9th Has Been Set as the Time That the First Carload Will
 Go Out.

M. NJ Cox, superintendent of ship ping, with the H H. Woods Commis- sion company, has arrived in Mesa and will immediately begin making prepa rations of the cantaloupe season which will start next Monday. July 5th. The packers will probably be secured in the same manner as on previous years. He has become personally acquainted with every one of the growers and is at home in Mesa.
 The recent outlook for a crop is much peter than in any previous re- cent years. The melons are setting on in good shape and they are coming on in abundance. They were slightly effected during the few days of dry ditches but the growers cultivated the more vigorously and as a result their crops scarcely suffered at all.
 The shipments to Chicago last year amounted to 197 carloads It is ex- pected that the shipments this year will be nearly as large. The acreage this year is between three or four hundred acres, while last year the acreage was over five hundred. The outlook for prices is much better than last year or two years ago. The canta- lOupe men generally are very sanguine over the general conditions.

MEETING OF THE CHAMBER
 OF COMMERCE YESTERDAY
Professor loper's Resignation as Pres
 ident of the Organization Accepted.

A special meeting of the chamber of commerce was called yesterday after noon primarily for the purpose of re ceiving the resignation of Professor J. D. LOper. as president of the organ iZation.
 The matter of a sugar factory at this place was taken up and a general dis cussion resulted. A concentrated eff fort on the part of every member of the organization is demanded and it is anticipated that at least some head way can be made in the direction of the desired object. It is a well known fact that Manager Davie while at this place year ago. after spending some time with Dr Chandler. in a thorough investigation of the deep wells gave it out that Mesa could support sugar factory and that his company expected to build more.

INEBR|ACY IS ON THE
 INCREASE IN MESA
A Long Line Faced Justice Irwin Yes terdsy Morning When Court Con- Ve.ed.

When Justice Irwin looked over the top of his spectacles yesterday morn ing at nine o'clock he faced one of the longest rows of derelicts that has been his duty to pass upon since he has been in the office Saturday night was one of those continual rounds of pleasure to a good many men who were loath to go to their homes until [ they had taken another drink Marshal Peterson had his hands full and incl dentally the jail was full in accommo- dating the boys who were out for a good time. Just why there should have been an unusual number of ''hic I'm a woody wolf sort of men on the streets Saturday night is more than the marshal can understand. He at tributes it partly to the climate and then again its the soil According to the officer he arrested only the most ''eXag aggerated" cases.
 Joe Rimmer fell in with the bunch and incidentally had a misunderstand- ing to the extent of a disturbance. He was caught at it and after the judge had heard his story he marked it down to the ridiculously low price of $10. Herbert Riggs who was also a party to a similar misunderstanding put ten dollars into the city sinking fund to help pay the street sprinkler and build culverts.
 OrsOn Vance did not get included in the disturbance class but he came very near to it. The marshal after thinking the matter over gave him an Al posi- tion at the head of the plain drunk line and the justice let him in at the seven dollar rate
 Ruperto Ruiz. was accused of being drunk but he insisted that a mistake had been committed by some one and pleaded not guilty. His case was post poned by the justice until a later date.
 C. r. Castro had been fighting and he had the evidence to show just how it had been done. Castro however was not q Saturday night victim of the marshal's dragnet but he came a little earlier. He was caught fighting Fri day evening just after the fire but he took to the timber and was not arrest ed until Sunday. He was fined s1O and paid part, agreeing to settle for the rest on the installment plan.
 In this connection it might be said that peculiar condition faces the of ficer in the discharge of his duties. There are a number of MeXicans, the heads of families. who generally have enough money to get polluted and no more To arrest them and have a trial is an expense to the city while if they are held in jail or made to work on the streets so as to recompense the mu- nicipality their families are bound to suffer.

CENTRAL COMMITTEE IN
 FINAL CONFERENCE
Speakers Program Being Arranged. Horseracins and Fireworks to be Features.

The fourth of July central committee will have it's final meeting tonight in the office of Doctor Palmer for the discussion of such business that must necessarily come up at this time.
 The speaking schedule is being ar ranged. It has about been decided to erect a stand immediately under the water tower for the accommodation of those who will take part in the pro- gram. The idea is to have several speakers who will confine themselves to short addresses. The entries for the horse races have been in for some time. The races will of course be one of the strong drawing cards and it has been planned to hold them as near the city as possible that as many as care to may witness them.
 The ball game has been given up. It was thought at first that Tucson could be secured but they have matched a game with Douglas on the 5th. Kelvin was the next choice but Kelvin like wise has other engagements. Manager Stevenson has worked long and faith ful to secure an attraction of a good game of base ball but he has simply been working against too great odds
