MINING TAX CONFERENCE
Prominent Mining Men from Over State Gather to Discuss Proposed Tax Legislation and to Draft Bill.

number of the prominent mining yesterday attending d conference upon the proposed new mining taxation law which is being prepared for passage by the next legislature. The method whereby the taxes were as- sessed against the mining industry of the state this year. a condition which was brought about by reason of the lack of authority, expressed in the statute and the constitution whereby the tax commission could actually assess the property was very unsatisfactory to the big mines of the state Therefor after the supreme court passed upon the Yavapai coun- ty tax matter general interest brought the representatives of the mining properties now in operation in Arizona into a conference here which was held some weeks ago. As a result of that conference it was agreed that a law should be drafted to meet the desires of the mine own CTS. This is the bill upon which the gentlemen were at work yesterday in the parlors of the Adams hotel. As soon as the final form shall be agreed upon it will be submitted to the at torney general and if found to be constitutional it will be taken to the next session of the legislature for consideration with the request that it be made into d law forthwith.
 There were present at the confer ence today Norman Carmichael of the Arizona Copper company who was chairman of the former meeting, w. H Aldridge of the Miami-Inspira ton company; Leroy Anderson and w L. Clarke. representing the United Verde company; F. E. Ellingwood Of the Copper Queen company, and others

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-The an stations for 1911. which has been made public by the department of agriculture. shows an unusual activi- ty in agricultural pursuits in the ter ritory and successful crops and ex- periments. In spite of drawbacks and the skeptical feeling of officials of the stations. considerable progress was made in experiments in small fruits and apple growing. Successful tests were made with varieties of cherries. currents and raspberries.
 The most encouraging tests were made with vegetables and the results obtained were highly satisfactory. Of these crops the report says:
 "The potato is by long odds tho most important vegetable grown in Alaska. It constitutes q very impor- tant item in the peoples diet. Every body uses it: everybody knows how
  be grown all over the territory. But in spite of this. several thousand tons are imported to Alaska every year. About a thousand tons are shipped into the Fairbanks region alone each summer from the Puget Sound dis trict. It is maintained that outside potatoes are drier and mealier than those grown in Alaska. and they therefore bring higher price in the market than do native grown pota- toes. It is denied that Alaska grown potatoes are of inferior quality. This is true of some varieties when growA under poor culture in wet soil. but it is not true of all varieties. It is thu function of the experiment stations to ascertain which varieties are best adapted to the country. and for this purpose a large number of varieties are grown on a small scale. These are then compared to each other as to yield and quality. and the inferior ones are rejected. while the best ones are distributed among those who may wish to try them.
 Next to the potato. cabbage is the most important vegetable in the country. It is grown everywhere, and in spite of a large home production great quantities of cabbage are ifh- ported to all sections of Alaska. Puget Sound cabbage may be found on sale in every grocery store in the coast terior towns where shipments can be delivered before the freeze-up. AS in the case of potatoes, varieties of cab bage differ greatly in their adoption to the climate"
 Caulifiower. peas. lettuce, radishes and other vegetables are also grown. Experiments are being made with dairying, and hay and grain crops.
 The report further states:
 That sheep breeding can be made a success in the coast region of Alaska has been proven by the last years experience with the station flock. For ty ewes were purchased in the spring of 1910. Five of these were lost dur ing the winter. but the remainder have done exceedingly we'll. It is ques- tion of starting with the right kind of sheep. Pure bred Merine or Merine grades of the kind that are used so extensively in the forest pastures of Idaho and Montana are unsuited to the country. In fact no short wooded
