AltalIa is selling at St. David at Sl2.5e f. O. b.
 The wheat crop is ripening and will be cut about the last of the month. There are something like a thousand acres of this grain planted in the district and the yield will ay- craze something like 90 bushels per acre. The apple crop will not be as large as was indicated early in the year. owing to late cold spells. The farmers in that district Lave a threshing machine this year which will save them much in the haf- vesting or their crop.

Berner attended the ex- ercises of the inauguration of Dr. Wilde as president of the University of Arizona at Tucson
 We people of Cochise county feel that a great injustice has been done us in the matter of the territorial highway" said Mir. Berner. Tn consequence several yoluminous peti- tions have been sent from Cochiso to the board of control. proresJinS against the proposition to construct the road where it will be admirably suited for a roadway for autos. but of no practical service to Cochise.
 'Bisbee, Benson and Tombstone have been entirely skipped by the highway route and, as Cochise has In the last two years paid in S75.00o to the territorial road fund. Cochise county people feel that the board of control should at least consult with the supervisors as to the pref erence of the people in general. The road as now planned skips practi- cally all important points. skirting the northern edge. of the Sulphur Springs valley, where it will be oi no service to ranchers. The only funds spent in Cochise during the last two years have been about sI1.- O00 for a highway between Bisbee and Douglas. Cochise county people are thoroughly aroused and will fight the issue to a standstill.
 Governor Richard P. Sloan was in Tucson at the same time anc was asked by a Star reporter for an eE- pression on the subject of the high way controversy
