NELSON MINE IS
 EQUIPPED FOR OPERATION
From Sundays Dafly)

From Sundays Daily)
 In speaking of the reviving of the Nelson Mining company, and the preliminary work under way on the property, Lester Jackson, while in the city yesterday from his War Eagle mines, stated that the new gallows frame is up, several houses. are ready for employees, and the camp is ready for active operations. Very much interest is prevailing among miners over the practical eonsidera- tion that is to be extended this proposition, he says, from the fact that it is in one of the most attractive gold bearing belts in the Bradshaw region and is without a counterpart in naturalization. the vein firm linn ited work in the past few years, showing it among the strongest and largest in the district. He predicts that when depth is reached it will more than verify his statements and prove a valuable property.
 Speaking of the development of the War Eagle-Gladiator system, MT. Jackson states that drifting con- tinues and he is satisfied with de nominations and intends to keep the drift going until the objective point is reached. Since he began opera tions over 500 feet of drifting mas been accomplished on the lower level. He will return to his camp tomor- row, and anticipates. that the Brad shaw country during the coming year wsI show many. surprises at several points under development.

MOUNTAIN LIONS
 KILLING MANY COLTS
CFrom Wednesdays L

From Wednesdays Daily)
 During the past six weeks the loss of young colts by the mountain lion in the Bloody Basin and ad- iacent country, has been the heaviest known in many years, was the sur prising statement made yesterday by Al. B. Kellogg, who is in the city from that range section. Speaking of his individual losses, he says that three young and valuable colts have been killed. and in addition to the deplorable condition, since the bOun- ty law lowered the price on these carniverous animals. it is practically agreed by the cattlemen of that part of the county that it is impossible to raise horses, and the industry has been practically abandoned. Every cattleman who desires to maintain COW ponies for range use, is begin ming to experience the disastrous eff fleets of providing animals for this purpose from his own range, and the saddle horse question is now vital issue. The range horse is passing into memory and the markets of other days limited to purchasers. The evil of the mountain lion ereeps into the situation with all of its ola rinU featureS and to DreSery-a Q what the rangeman has, is all the more delicate problem to solve.
 With others in that section, Mir Kellogg has offered an individual bounty of $lO a head on every noun tain lion killed, which. added to the legal bounty, swells the amount to $2O lion.
 A general movement of eattlemen in the eastern part of the county is to be undertaken to have the old bounty law of $40 head on noun tain lions restored by the next Leg islature. It is popular with all in terests, and it not confined strictly to those owning horses, but with eat tlemen as well. MT. Kellogg states that from a rough estimate he places the loss of valuable colts at several i thousand dollars, and hardly a week i has passed but what one has been killed.

CFrom Sundays Daily.)

A communication has been re eeived by the Board of Supervisors from Governor Sloan, authorizing publicity to be given to a subject which will be of interest to the Greek residents of the county, of whom there are said to be many working in mines. The executive de sires them to inform the Greek con- sul at San Francisco of any busi- ness they may have in the future, in case of death of their countrymen. provided the deceased has no rela- tives residing in the county, to ad- minister to the estate. This action is taken to obviate delay in handling the affairs of those who may die, and is requested to be followed here after by those interested.

 WORK OF CHARITY
Sales of Red Cross Christmas Seals In Territory Amount to Nearly
 One Thousand Dollars
(From Sunuay's Daily.)

tion to the population, were in Pres. eott and Yavapai county, the only county in the Territory where the sales were conducted by County Society for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. This strongly sug- gests the fact that if a successful anti-tuberculosis campaign is to be conducted throughout the Territory, it should be by means of County So- eiety for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis in each county in Arizona. Those who are interested in this work, should see that such societies are established in the differ ent counties at once.
 The sales in Prescott alone amount ed to more than 27,000, averaging about five and one-half stamps for each man, woman and child in the town. This is probably the highest average of any community in the United States, and speaks well for the work of the Yavapai County So- ciety for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. If those who sub scribed So generously to this fund wish to get some definite idea of just now much good this money will do in alleviating suffering and say ing useful lives, they should see the Red Cross Seal pictures now being shown at the Elks theater.
 The Arizona Association is very sanguine that by making it's prep arations earlier it will be able to rise a much larger amount by the sale of Christmas seals, next season.

REBEL SPIRIT IS
 RAMPANT IN PRISON

The Mexican prisoners in the pen itentiary at Florence have caught the insurrectionary spirit, according to adviees from the prison town. Not that they are considering any revolt against Captain Tom Rynning and the Territorial authorities, for they consider the warden and the guards as among their best friends. But it is stated that the Mexicans are looking forward to the expiration of their sentences, when they may cross the international line and join the insurgents in Mexico.
 The prisoners nave organized an insurrectionary Junta, it is stated and have even gone the length of asking Captain Rynning to allow them to get together and learn mili tary drill so that they may make themselves effective soldiers. That privilege. however, will not be ae corded them.

DISCOVERS CAUSE
 OF TOMATO BLIGHT

SPOKANE, Wash, Feb. 25.-Dis- Covery has been made by S. A. Wright, a fruit grower and truck farmer at Opportunity, Wash, that western tomato blight is caused by a form of bacteria in the soil. His remedy is crop rotating to purify the earth, treating the seed with a solu- tion of formaldehyde and setting the plants in nO-infected soil after talk ing them from the hotbed.
 MT. Wright has reported his dis cOvery to the experiment station of the Washington State College at Pullman, and expects to interest az ricultural colleges and experiment stations in the Northwest in a move ment to stamp ont the mysterious disease, which has baffled experts for years and cost market garden CTS in the Pacific Slope country hun dreds of thousands of dollars.
 biht the So-cdlltu hlll, Nuttu is literally wiping out the flax indus try in many parts of Montana and North Dakota,'' said MT. Wright. in Spokane today, "the blight first attacks the root of the tomato plant. The rest of it soon becomes affect ed and is rendered worthless. Each year adds to the amount of injuri- ous germs in the land and the crop becomes smaller In some instances the soil is so infected that toma- toes will not grow and that soon will be the case in many parts of the West if the blight is not cheek ed.
 "The growers must unite if the fight on the blight is to be sueeess- ful. as the germs are easily spread by irrigation ditehes, wind and farm implements. To insure healthy plants every grower should raise his seed from vigorous, blight resisting stock and use only fresh and purified soil in making the hotbed and take care of the plants after they have been set out in the field. The remedy is so simple that every tomato grower should join in this campaign against the blight.''
