Coronado t1 Clifton Road.

The wagon road from Clifton to Coronado is in rather poor condition and it can truthfully be said that there has been practically no work done on it for year or longer. It is full of rocks and in many places it is almost impossible to haul a loaded wagon. This road is travelled by more wagons than any other road in the county and it is one in which the people of the valley are interested. Why not request the board of super visors to put it in frst-class condi- tion, which can be done at little cost The people who travel the road are the ones who should go after this proposition, as really few Clifton people have occasion to travel over it. High water in the Gila river also blocks traffic over the road, therefore it will be good idea for the valley farmers, who market their produce in Clifton to get after the county for a wagon bridge while it is in the bridge building notion.

Reduction in Rates By Southern Pacific.

A voluntary reduction, effective October 27, in the rate on canned goods from Kansas City, Memphis New Orleans, St. Louis and Chicago to Phoenix and Arizona points, has been announced by the Southern Pacific.
 The reduction is quite important, as a great deal of canned goods are imported by merchants of Arizona from the points named. It will effect a saving of S54 per car.
 The rate from Kansas City is now Sl 75 per 100 pounds and it will be reduced to SI.6O. The present rate of Sl 80 from St. Louis, Memphis and New Orleans will drop to s1.65, and the Sl.S5 rate from Chicago to S1.7O
 This means a saving of 15 cents per 100 pounds, or S54 on an ordinary car of 1000 pounds.
 In the justification of canned goods is included vegetables, fruits jellies, jams and meats. Practically all the timed meats consumed in this terri. tory come from Kansas City, Chicago and Omaha. and the Omaha rate is affected by the Kansas City reduc. tion. Rates from all points east o1 the ones named will also be affected

Smoked Cigarette and Recovered Speech

Oh, Gee!" This characteristic ejaculation following being choked by cigarette smoke, were the first words which had passed the lips of Harvey Hughes, aged 20 years, the son of E. E. Hughes of Bisbee, for thirty-three days. A species of voc. al paralysis which had hold upon his organs of speech left him and today he talks as we'll as anyone, says the Bisbee Review.
 Young Hughes, when interviewed told a very peculiar story, but one vouched for in every particular by those who know him we'll. While al work in a butcher shop for which he was deliveryman, he was suddenly overcome by fainting spell and had to be assisted to his home. He was unconscious for several hours and when he came to his senses be could not utter word, nor even whisper, having to resort to writing to com municate with others.
 Saturday night was the end of the thirty-three days during which he had been tormented by his strange affiiction. He was sitting upon the front rorch of his fathers home smoking a cigarette when he became choked upon the smoke he had in- haled. After fit of coughing he started in the house and was again overcome by the choking sensation. Following this he gave vent to the very natural exclamation of oh, gee
 The case is one of the strangest ever transpiring in Bisbee. Whether the lesson to be drawn from it is that cigarettes are good for the dumb, is not for layman to say.

The New Law Regulating Checks.

A Washington dispatch says: If you should write check for less than S1 after January l, 1910, you will sub- iect yourself to the possibility of a fiue of $500 or being imprisoned six months in jail.
 Protests by the hundreds are being filed by merchants, retail houses of all kinds, and especially those doing mail order business, and by all busi- ness men in general, against section ITS of the penal law, which was ap- proved March 4, 1909, and which pro- vides that no person shall make, is- sue or pay out any note, check, memorandum, token or other obliga- tion for less sum than Sl, intended to circulate as money or to be re- ceived or used in lieu of lawful money of the United States.

The copper era., 1909-10-07

As the list shows, the three heaviest freight producing crops are cabbage, onions, and potatoes. Lumber is fourth. Up to the present time timber has been cut almost exclusively from wild land, without much regard to the acres gone over. But the time is coming when the yield of wood per acre will be calculated as carefully as the yield of corn, and as much thought will be given to growing it, though not as much work. How much wood grows on an acre in year?
 Some of the abused, burnt, washed, and neglected lands are producing only little. It has been estimated that the typical hardwood regions of Tennessee, where fire is kept out, are growing about 5000 pounds of wood yearly per acre. Good stands of young pines in other parts of the country are probably doing as well or better But this is not the limit, for toresters say woodland can do much better under forestry methods. Good timber must be selected, the poor cut cut, just as the farmer plants the best kinds of corn and rejects the poor. In Europe where they raise crops of trees they get, under favor able conditions, an annual growth of 4,5OO pounds to 6,500 pounds of wood per acre. This country can do at least as we'll.
 The freight carriers, however, sell dom transport the whole wood growth. The waste is left in the woods or at the mill. This is much or little, de- pending upon what is made of the wood before the transportation com- pany gets it. It is apparent, however, that after deducting for waste, the growth of an acre of timber furnishes more freight than an acre of any one of the agricultural crops except cab bage, onions, and potatoes.
 The quantity of any one of these three commodities that will go to the market is limited by demand, but the demand for lumber is not diminishing. All that the forests and planted lots can supply will go to the market.
 Woodland, under care, yields yearly crops as regularly as wheat fields. The marketable timber only is cut at regular intervals, and new growth is always coming on. As freight pro- ducer, a timber tract may be depended upon as surely as a potato field. In fact, it is surer; for land in farm crops wears out unless constantly fertilized, but timberland fertilizes itself with it's leaves, and becomes richer. It will yield undiminished crops forever.
 Trees grow on rough land where agriculture cannot pro6tably be carried on, and the freight and other returns from such regions are largely clear gain since such land would other wise be producing little or nothing.

More Than Enough is Too Much.

To maintain health, a nature man or woman needs just enough food to repair the waste and supply energy and body heat. The habitual con sumption of more food than is neces- sary for these purposes is the prime cause of stomach troubles, rheuma- tism and disorders ot the kidneys. If troubled with indigestion, revise your diet, let reason and not appetite con- trol and take few doses of Chamber lain's Stomach and Liver Tablets and you will soon be all right again.
