GOVERNMENTS
 WRONG STEER
Watching Warren District <. Vain While Agua Prieta
 Mines More and More Am munition-Bctter at Depth

1T there are naughty persons in this district contemplating the passing oi aid to the Constitufioralist forces on the other side of tbe International line, let them beware Uncle samuel has an eye peeled over the locality and shingle Itching for a spanking job.
 As much has been indicated by the presence of squads of Uncle's soldiers about Bisbee. Lowell and Warren since last Saturday evening. The s0ldier. folks were conspicuous about the South hwestern depot last Saturday night and Sunday; also around the Lowell and Warren depots. and sandwiehed in rather freely at way points. Their presence attracted considerable comment and more spec ulation. This has increased rather than diminished as the week has worn along and the more or less in conspicuous espionage of things by the soldier people continued un- checked
 In view of the watcEIulness about trains Saturday night and sunday morning it has been wondered if the presence Of a great many soldiers al the Lewis Springs picnic on Sunday was altogether a mere happening IT has also been wondered if the govern, ment had 9 wrong steer that gave ir the impression that there might be attempt to slip out regiment of re. cruits and few arsenals under cover Of the big picnic crowd 1T so. the gov ernmet wHs all wrong. for there was nothing doing nor contemplated so far as anybody in this end of Ari- 2ona knows.
 It is said, on information supposedly from the inside, that government officials have been worrying along continued shipments of ammunition from Naco. Sonora. to Guaymas. Every few days there has been a car or so of ammunition hooked to a train south bound through Sonora, The government officials are not in. clined 10 believe that the most oF this ammunition was left at Agua Prieta and Naco by Gen. Ojeda and that state troops al these points have late fv been mining iL from hidden places with much success. On the other hand the government people are said to be quite confident that despite their best eTCrts the bulk of the am munition being shipped south is com ing from this side of the line.

 After scoopfng, the mother bulbs are laid in trays and exposed to the sun for day, to dry the fresh cut surfaces. The trays are then placed in a weIl-ventilated propagating house, where the scales soon separate some what and produce young bu1b1ets, for planting three months later, in the fall.
 The scoring process consists in making two or four deep cuts across the base of the bulbs. This kills the flower and the growing point. and the result is the production of baby bulbs, just as in scooping. But the young bulblets are larger and strong CT. They are treated in the. same way, and planted later.
 The scooped and scored mother bulbs, with baby bulbs attached, are planted in beds a few inches apart, and covered with three or four inches Of soil A mulch of straw or grass is added for winter protection. At harvest time, in the following summer, the mother bulbs will have practical 1y disappeared and in place of them, close together, will be found little colonies of baby bulbs. The latter, when taken out of the ground, are dried in the bulb house and sort ed.

will produce quite as early flowers as those from Bermuda. Furth thernore, the plant bureau has obtained, by crossing, some new and superior va r1eties, which promise to prove high commercial value.
 A century ago the Easter lily was a common dooryard plant in the Berrnu- daS. It was brought thither origin ally from Japan. No sooner was it planted there than it exhibited phe- nomenaI growth, and the gentle eli mate encouraged it to blossom very early. Later on, a single accidental bulb-what the gardeners call 8
 'sport'-turned up to start an inn proved variety, which was more pro- life and an earlier bloomer than it's progenitors. From this bulb has been derived the strain of lilies which fur nishes the precious winter flowers.
 The early worm had it's original home in the Bermudas, which is es- pecially the place of production for things that come out of the ground ahead of time-notably the early onion and the ambitious young potato The lily plants are set out, like the onions, in beds about four feet wide, and weeded with finger and thumb. TiIIa- ble land brings such a high rent that every inch of ground must be made to produce a maximum output, but the Easter lily farmer thinks his crop poor one if it does not yield at the rate of S2,O00 an acre.
 The bulbs that reach this country exceptionally early command special prices-a fact which has tempted the Bermuda farmer to adopt the habit of digging them before they are ripe. Apparently this is one cause of the so-ca11ed lilly sickness Another

power machine for doing this work. It is only one of many improvements which are certain to be made through the adoption of American ingenuity to the development of the business Of growing Dutch bulbs'' in the Unit ed States.
 For the annual Easter lily crop we have been hitherto dependent upon Bermuda, about 100000 of the bulbs being imported yearly from. that small group of volcanic islands. The gov ernuent plant bureau thinks that it would be well worth while to grow them in this country; and, with this idea, it has been making experiments recently in various parts of the United States.
 There is another reason for trying to grow them here, which is that the imported bulbs are commonly unsat- isfactory. The plants produced from them are liable to be diseased to such an extent that from 50 to 75 per cent are unstable. This condition mani fests itself in spotted leaves, dwarfed growth and deformed flowers.
 So serious has the trouble become that many florists at the present time would gladly abandon the cultivation of the Easter lily were it not that their patrons demand the flower in it's season and insist upon having it. Hence the problem of growing the bulbs within our own borders, and of producing healthy plants and flowers from them, is of no small importance The plant bureau is confident that it will be solved.
 In fact, it has already been solved to some extent through experiment. tai work by government experts. At tempts to grow the bulbs in the Caro- linas were unsuccessful, both climate

and soil being unsuitable; but at Key West conditions were found to be ideal, closely approaching those of Ser muda; and in parts of California, es- pecia1Iy in the hot valleys of the in- terior, the plants thrive exceIlently. They do well near Sacramento and likewise in the foothills not far from Los Angeles.
 There Is money in growing Easter fly bulbs, as may be judged from the fact that a single acre of land will yield about 10000 of them, represent ing value of $1,O0O to S2,OOO. One florist in California who planted the seeding lilies cleared in the first sea- son $250 for flowers from a space forty-fve by twenty-five feet. One may grow the seedlings either for flowers or for bulbs. The latter has been done very successfully in the vicinity of Santa Ana, Cal, where soil and climate are evidently favorable.
 It appears that when the bulbs are grown from seeds the plants after ward raised from the bulbs are nearly always perfectly healthy. Hence the prospect Is that florists in this coun- try will come to depend more and more upon the homegrown article Results have already been so encour- aging to commercial growers on the Pacific coast that several of them are now engaged in the propagation of Easter lily seedlings on large scale.
 There seems, indeed, to be no reason why in future we should continue to depend upon Bermuda for our SUD- plies of bulbs of this highly esteemed and beautiful plant. We can grow them just as well at home, and have healthy Easter lilies. At Yuma, Ariz. for example, bulbs can be grown that

cause has been the practlce of obIie- ing one plant to produce both flowers and bulbs. The bulb grower who cuts the Towering stalk, has outraged ma ture, and it is not surprising that somebody should have to pay for it Four or five years of planting and re-
 planting are required to bring the bulbs to full size, some of them reach ing a circumference of fourteen in ches.
 The chances are that within a very few years the Bermuda farmers VIII be forced to abandon the culture of Easter lilies, because of the produc- ton of better bulbs in unlimited ouau- titles in the United States, which, is their only important market, and that they will be compelled to fall back upon onions and potatoes for a IiveIi- hood.
