Some efforts have met with certain amount Of success but
not with practical success.

THE TOBACCO INDUSTRY.

What effect the dissolution Of the tobacco trust will have
the worlds tobacco trade is probematica.
II was announced short time that James B. Duke presi
dent Of the American Tobacco Company he parent s had
resigned from that office to become active head of the British
American Tobacco company which maintains headquarters in
London and concerned chiefly with foreign trade
Data issued by the bureau Of manufacturers from consular
pos show the tobacco trade increasing and that in continent
al countries millions are being made annually by growing and
manufacturing the leaf
The Austrian tobacco monopoly affords one Of the most inter-
eng successful instances Of governmental conduct of
great commercial undertaking.
The monopoly sells its goods to 30000000 people (a Austria
and Hungary employs than 10000 persons makes sales
of S57000000 annum and is able at the end of
the year submit to the public exact accounts without exciting

The general impression among Americans who visit German
cities notably Hamburg that the local cigar selling at cents

The Italian government has monopoly tobacco
In 1904 the tobacco land cultivated tOaed only l2723
IN 1910 t had increased TO 2O,0S9 acres.
Statistics show that Italy consumes less tobacco per capita
than any other country in the world due chiefly to les high price
In 1910 the consumption 2006 pounds per capta while
Russia for instance II was 9.92 pounds
Italy derives annual income S66 900 from tobacco
OF which $l 5S0000 represents total outlay and expense
Reports from England Argentina Malta the Turkish regions
and even from Canada show tobacco acreage increasing
In England careful tests are being made
In the United States aside from ts revenue tax the govern
ment derives nothing from the tobacco busneexcept perhaps
the satisfaction Of dissolving the trust

KALE IS NOT
SO VALUABLE
AS CLAIMED

Some fine samples OF a new kind
Of kale or COW cabbage have been
displayed in the Board Of Trade
rooms for the past few weeks, and
as 1t attracted considerable COM
ment at the time, Secretary Hofer
took pains to write to the Agricul-
tural College concerning It's merits
as a succulent. food for dairymen
and other stock growers. Many
farmers became enthusiastic about
the plant and It's possibilities in this
particular climate, hence the follow
ing report from Professor scudder Of
the Department of Agriculture will
be of interest:
The marrow cabbage, concerning
which you write, has been tried at
this station several years, and on the
average soil under average soil con-
ditlons, will not yield either so great
quantity or so good a quality Of
feed as the thousand-headed kale Of
the best type, nor will 1t stand as
much frost. We cannot recommend
this crop as superior to kale for
average conditions. Under excep-
tional conditions, such as very
rich, quick, well-drained, sand loan
soil very heavily fertillzed, the yield
of the marrow cabbage may slightly
exceed that Of selected thousand
headed kale, but do not believe
that the former, as we now have It
available, will give a sufficiently
large excess in yield to make It of
much Importance. We are, at the
Experiment Station here, making Sc
lections Of the marrow cabbage and
hope to get an improved plant from
which later we can distribute the
seed as soon as we are sure Of It's
value. just as we have done for
years with our improved thousand
headed kale We are this year im-
porting the choicest marrow cab
bage seed obtainable from England
to carry out further tests with

CONCRETE WORK ON
 BRIDGES COMPLETE
Two on Tombstone Canyon Road Ready For
 the Steel

All concrete work on the two bridge sites on the Tombstone can. yon road extension were completed yesterday, and the bridges are now ready for the steel. which will be shipped from Fl Paso on April %. It is expected that the steel win arrive in Bisbee about May !.
 In the meantime the entire force of laborers on the extension will be employed in filling in the depression above the lower bridge. and in mak- ing the five-ioOt cut through the creek bed at the far end of the ex. tension. Considerable work has al ready been done on this. but 1t will be carried on with a rush now. as all laborers will be put to work on it.
 The rock and dirt that is being taken from the cut is being carted to the fill as fast as it is removed and as the amount of silt that must be taken from the cut is approximate. ly the amount that will be needed to fill the depression. there will be no loss of time or energy, and both will he completed almost simultaneously Although it is only a week until May l. tEe time originally set for the com pletion U the road, it is likely that autoists will be aSii1c tn take a May Day spin up the extended Tombstone canyon road.

ALL WELCOME ID
 SPECIAL TREATMENT
Several Business Men Have Said They Will Be
 Insured"

Several persons, prominent busi. ness men, have notified the health au. thcrities that they will take the ty. phoid anti-toxin treatment, which will be given to all who request it at the cost of the medicine used in the treatment, which will be about a dollar and a quarter.
 DT. Miner, county health officer, stated yesterday that the offer was intended for every citizen in the county, not only the people of Bisbee, and that the people Of Douglas. Tombstone, Gleeson, Benson and all other county points are as welcome to the treatment as anyone.
 In Tuesdays Review, it was er- roneously stated that the period of rest following the taking of the treatment that is advised by physi- clans was ten days. It is not ten days, but only forty-eight hours. The busi ness man who desires to take out this typhoid insurance" may take the treatment Saturday, and the slight rise of temperature would then occur on Sunday, so there would be no loss Of time from business on &C., count of the treatment.

 The prisoner saved the court furth. CT worry, however. by entering a plea oi guilty, and bOlstering it up with a further plea of mercy. The court entered Q fine Of fifteen dollars, and gave Aurdock an hour in which to collect it
 In two hours he came back, and had been unable to raise the fine.

LITTLE INTEREST
 IN HE PRIMARIES
Contest For Nominations Fails to Arouse
 Enthusiasm

Though the city primary will be held on Saturday. nearly every oth- CT question will take precedence over 1t as a topic of discussion. No in. terest whatever attaches to the con. tests for offices that offer no pay. and in the case of offices that pay, the burden of exciting any interest lies on the candidate. No announcements of candidates have been made in any newspaper. and the only indication of active desire are few cards print. ed and posted in prominent places. All election blanks have been print ed and the officials named. Judging from the interest being displayed. the vote in the primary will be light
 Up to yesterday noon one thou sand and twenty-five voters had reg istered. Those posted on political matters believe that between 1900 and ], 400 voters will register for the cleo ton. Contrary to popular belief. the registration books will not close this week or next week. but will remain open until May r. ten days before the date of the election.
