HINTS FOR FARMERS
Lime Not a Soil Food.

Always bear In mind that lime In no
way takes the place of manures, fer
tilizers or green manuring. II simply
remedies a sick condition OF the soil
and should be considered rather as n
medicine than as a food. It's use with
out the use OF manures or fertilizers
would be much like trying to sustain
the human body on stimulants alone
without the use OF food and would re-
suit only in the greater impoyerish-
ment OF the SOIL On the other hand,
when a man Is sick he sometimes
needs medicines to get his system into
condition so II can again assimilate
food. and In the same way soil which
Is sick with acid must have that acid
ity cured with lime before 1t can make
use OF the plant food In the manures
or fertilizers. Perhaps my smile is a
little farfetched. but think the read
err will appreciate the point which the
writer is trying TO make-that lime is
a corrective and not food Alfred

BULLION TAX RETURNS
FOrtY-twO Millions Out of Fifty
One Mines.
Yuma County's Big Producer.

Phoenix, (Ariz } Aug. 13.-The
figures of the 1908 bullion pro
duction of the larger mines of
Arizona have just been given
out by Territorial Auditor
Foster, from reports made him
by the mine owners. These re-
ports are the purpose of fixing
the taxation of each mining
company, on basis of 70 per
cent OF the value OF the bullion
product, this % per cent being
taken as the value of the mine,
for taxation purposes. Mines
producing less than $4,000 per
annum are taxed under the
general law.
The mines reporting are fifty
one in number, with a total out
put valued at $40, 249, 281. A
year ago seventy nine mines re-
ported on outputs above $4,000
each, totaling S54, 788, 563. This
drop of Sl2, 100000 is mainly
due to the decline in the value of
copper, which had fallen off to a
little more than half the extreme
price reached the previous year.
This is shown by the fact that
the copper product of the greater
mines was larger than in the
previous report, having been
29l, 584,O80 pounds, compared
with 252, 784,7OO for 1907. The
silver product reported was 3
|571, 697 ounces; gold, 1856, 059
ounces; lead, 1895, 1873 pounds
zinc, 2, 457, 500 pounds. The sill
yer product of much the same
mines for 1907 was 2, 1913, 723
ounces, and of gold 1888
ounces.
The product of the larger
mines, running down to an out
put of 100000 per annum, is
listed below in order of impor-
lance, the production of copper
alone being given:

President rlay Visit Yuma.

From kilograms printed in the
Tucson Star. the indications are
strong that Yuma will be one of
the Arizona points visited by
President Taft and party in their
western tour. The Star says:
sit can readily be seen from
the last telegram that it is Virtu
ally settled that the president will
visit Yuma, Phoenix and Pres
colt, and there is a possibility
that he will come to Tucson, al
though there is no assurance as
to his visiting this city.
1.-THE probability that he will
change his original itinerary is
announced after prolonged cor
respondence on the subject, IN
which every influential medium
was brought into play by the
Arizona people, and great credit
is due Colonel Sturges for his
personal efforts in behalf Of his
fellow countrymen. Definite in
formation on the presidents visit
is expected at any time, and it is
to be hoped that it will carry
with it the announcement that
Tucson will be included in the
itinerary.

tainment and will accompany

The Perennial Court
House Bond Question

Another hitch in the court
house bond sale is presented; the
firm of Bolger & Co., to whom
the bonds were sold, having dis
covered that the bonds may be
paid off and cancelled within 10
years instead of running the 80
years, as their contract specifies,
have notified the board of super
visors that new contract must
be made TO conform to the law
governing the bond issue, else
the sale is off.
At a meeting of the board last
Saturday it was determined to
pass the question of the bond
issue up to Attorney General
Wright for an opinion. on which
the board will act. District At
torney Timmons has already ad-
vised the board that the bonds
should be rendered the successful

by them as q guarantee of good

DOuQIaS to Yuma Road.

PHOENIX, August 16-DOuglas is
to be the eastern end and Yuma the
western end of an east and west ter
ritorial highway to be constructed
under the good roads law enacted by
the last legislature. This was settled
at meeting Of the territorial board
Of control last week when official ac-
ton was taken and a tax levy ordered
for north and south road and an
east and west road in the following
counties: Pima, Pinal, Maricopa, Yav-
apai, Coconino, Yuma, ella, Graham,
and Cochfse. The levy in Pima and
CochiSe will be 15c, while in all the
other counties it will be Csc on the
500 assessed valuation. In the cOun-
ties of Santa Cruz, Navajo, Mohaye,
and Apache, where no good roads
work will be done, the minimum If
sc will be levied as required by law
passed by the last legislature.
The board has found the sentiment
very favorable to good roads work by
the territory, and is acting according
ly Announcement of the action was
made to-day The minutes of the pro-
ceedingS indicate that the board has
designed as a north and south road,
a route yet to be determined, begin
ming at or near Tucson, passing up
through Pima, PinaI Maricopa, Yav-
apai and Coconino to- some point
along the Grand Canyon. The east
and west road will begin at Yuma
and run in an casterly direction
through Yuma, Marfcopa, CHA, Ora
ham and Cochise TO Douglas. This
will connect all the principal cities of
the territory, with Phoenix, the cap
ital as the hub OF the radiating road
ways.
Auditor Foster called attention TO
the fact that the board had not DIES
ignated any particular route, merely
the counties through which the roads
shall pass. The minutes show that
