The srDsge.tIbIev Shortening.

Lard IS the most commonly used cook
ing fat, yet not 10 per cent of the
food cooked with lard digests naturally
and easily; the other % per cent. instead
of noarisiing the body, merely clogs the
digestive organs.
Physicians ard cooking experts have
long been seeking something to replace
lard, and repeated tests have finally
demonstrated that Cottolene, vegetable
oil cooking fat, is not only pure, nutri-
tious and wholesome as olive oil, but is
even more economical than lard. Such
noted authorities as Mrs. Rorer and
Marion Harland both recommend Cot
tolene as much more heslthful than
lard"

FRUIT GROWERS SUP
 FER HEAVY LOSSES
From Sundays Daily)

Fruit bearing trees of the Walnut Grove section have been severely harmed, and little production will be had from them this season, is the distressing news that Thomas Camp bell brings from that point.
 The buds have been nipped by the early frost, which came unexpectedly, and the loss will run into the thous- ands of dollars. One firm in that valley was anticipating the shipment of three ear loads this season, as pre- vailed last year, and with others will have practically no revenue from that source.
 Previous to the big December storm the weather was summer-like, and when the thermometer dropped all trees were in bud, aHd the subse- quent cold spell reached and de- strOyed much foliage. Walnut Grove was assuming much prominence in the fruit growing line, and the loss of the crop will be generally regret ted by the consuming public, produe- ing as it does among the finest in apples, pears, peaches and other growths
 MT. Campbell says that mining is very active at all points adjacent to that valley, and at French Guleh, where the new placer machinery is going up, antieipations of the highest are expressed over the yield that will follow the operation of the aurif- erous beds. At other points many quartz mines are working, and the yield being mainly gold, investors are arriving almost daily to make examinations.

TOMBSTONE HIGH IN
 PRODUCTION or LEAD

Assessor Howe of Cochise county has received the quotations upon which basis the valuation of the var ious mineral productions of the Co., chise county mines for the tax as- sessment for the year will be figured.
 The quotations for copper and sil- yer the past year will be slightly less than the basis for 1908. The figures are taken of the average price paid during the entire year and com piled by the Engineering and Mining Journal, an authority on mineral quo tations.
 The copper figures for 1909 will be 12.9S2 cents per pound as against 13.2OS cents for 1908. This will materially affect the Coehise county figures for this years rolls, being a difference of over l cent per pound. The copper production of the various mines of that county will also show a slight decrease, the Copper Queen figures for 1909 being 75,s21 ,566 lbs, while 1908 returns were 76,125, ,162 lbs. The c. & 4. figures are not yet at hand, but will show a slight de- crease.
 The silver quotations will be on the basis of 51.5O3 cents as against 52. .s64 cents for 1908. The Tomb stone production of silver will be fully up to the figures of the year before despite the lower quotation. The same will also apply on the lead which is the only metal that will show a higher quotation this year than last, the exact quotation being 4.273 cents, while for 1908 it was 4.20O. The Tombstone district is the largest producer of lead in territory, as is shown by the tax statements filed with the Tombstone luditor yearly.
 The total valuation of the products ,f the Cochise county mines will not De officially known until May l, | when the reports are all to be filed with Assessor Howe.
