DEVELOPMENT OF
COLONIAL MINES
MAY FOLLOW AJO

TUCSON, ARIZ., Oct. 27.-Develop-
ment of the Colonial Copper COM
pany's properties south of Gila Bend
is foreshadowed in the filing of a
suit in the superior court by the
Beacon Trust company against the
Colonial company. The action is for
the purpose of foreclosing a mortgage
of $175,00O on patented mining claims
in Pima county.
Allan B. Jaynes has been appointed
receiver of the Colonial Copper COM
pany, and it is believed that re-
organization of the company's affairs
will be speedily consummated. The
company's properties are Is miles
south of Ajo, and will become of easy
access with the completion of the new
railroad now being built to the Calu-
met & Arizona properties at Ajo. The
lands held by the company includes
over thirty claims, which are said to
be promising but have hitherto been
handicapped by the lack of transporta-
ton facilities.

STARTING WITH FRUIT

There are but few localities in
Arizona where the production of
fruit should be encouraged on a
large commercial scale; however,
every home should have some fruit
trees and every farm should be pro-
vided with a home orchard wherever
possible. A good home orchard con-
tanning well selected varieties of
productive power of the farm but
also greatly increases the attractive
ness of the home and enhances it's
value, says A. L. Paschell, farm ad-
visor, Cochise-S Santa Cruz counties,
u of A. Agricultural Extension
Service, and IT. s. D. A.
A good, well cared for orchard
will be productive and occupy the
land for many years. Fruit trees,
vines and shrubs should be selected
with great care as to the varieties,
condition (soundness and Of the
proper shape and age), and should
be set out in properly prepared
ground. The roots should not be
allowed to become dry nor be ex-
posed to sunlight and drying winds.
to become dry or were exposed to
sunlight. They apparently made
good start and then suddenly wilted
and died. On examination / found
that the trees had made no root
growth.
1t is also essential that the trees
be not overirrigated, nor should the
soil in the orchard be allowed to be-
come too dry. Give the orchard
good cultivation. The roots must
have air and moisture. Irrigating in
small hole or pit around the tree is
not a good practice, especially after
the first year
Farmers should buy their trees CO.
operatively, or in club lots, direct
from good, reliable nursery, being
careful to secure one-year-old trees
which have healthy growth and
good root systems. These should be
carefully inspected by a competent
inspector on the grounds or at the
home station. I have seen orchards
in this state which were badly in
tested with woolly aphis and crown
gall, which rendered the trees un-
productive and caused them to die.
Sandy soil is generally best for fruit.

LARGE TAXPAYERS
TO FILE PROTEST

PHOENIX, ARIz, Oct. 27-On the
ground that the tax rate fixed by
the legislature was raised by the tax
commission, large taxpayers through
out the state will pay their state as
sessments under protest. But few
protests have been filed as yet, but
many are expected before November
when the taxes become delinquent
The legislature fixed the rate for
school purposes at .023S1, which would
have brought in 100000, and the tax
commission raised the rate to .11905
sufficient to bring in a revenue of
$500,000. In case the protests are
sustained by the courts taxpayer can
recover only in case he filed a. pro-
test at the time his taxes were paid.

MAR|COPA MAY LOSE THE,
BORDERLAND . SAYS YUMA

PHOENIX, Oct 2S.-If Maricopa
county doesn't get busy and improve
her road from Phoenix to the Yuma
county line, Yuma county is going to
build road on the other side of
the Gila river to connect up with
Tucson.
Such is the ultimatum of Yuma
county. delivered at the Antelope
hill bridge dedication by Judge IL j.
Westover an enthusiastic good roads
booster of Yuma.
Westover was one of the main
speakers of the dedicatory exercises
in connection with the opening of the
new $4,000 bridge at Antelope hill,
six and one half miles from Welton
or 40 miles this side of Yuma
"Maricopa county is asleep at the
switch when it comes to getting good
roads" said Westover. IF they don't
get busy up in that big county, Yuma
is going to build a road on the other
side of the Gila river to connect with
Tucson
The other speakers besides West
over were Gov. Hunt, Ike Proebstal
member of the Yuma county board OF
supervisors; Prof. A. E. Douglas OF
Tucson and State Engineer Lamar
Cobb.

WHAT HE LEARNED AT FARMERS
SHORT COURSE

A young man from ST. Johns, Ari-
zona, attended the Farmers Short
Course held at the U. of A. College
of Agriculture in 1913-14. He re-
ceived instruction on how to set out
an orchard. After he returned home
neighbor, hearing that he had some
knowledge of this subject asked for
assistance in setting out an apple
orchard. This young man helped to
set out the orchard, which today
promises to be one of the best in
that part of the state. The instruction
given at the U. of A. Farmers Short
Course must be practical if results
like that are secured by those who
attend it. The Fourth Annual Farm
ers' Short Course will be held at the
U. of A. College of Agriculture, Janu-
ary to Is, inclusive, 1915.

of the canyon mica is found, and a
good mica mine is more valuable than
a gold mine.
"All over these three counties are to
be found deposits of iron which in
time will be available and used. The
mining future of these counties is a
little ways off as yet, but it is bound
to come as the development and set

what they have to offer.

ing is produced in the metals. each of
these counties have their little part in
the annual reports.
"Coconino county has but three op-
orators of deep mines and reported a
production of ZIG tons of ore, con-
tanning 237 ounces Of silver and 25,O24
pounds of copper valued at $4432.
Nearly all of this ore was from the
Francis district and from the Good
enough claims near the Grand Can
yon.
But the mining resources of these
counties are in another age and their
turn will come when the mining in
the southern part of the state has
commenced to lag. When the popu-
lation has SO moved west that iron
and coal are desired we will hear fur

Commercial club at meeting held
last evening adopted a resolution en-
dorsing the movement for the recall
of Governor George w. P. Hunt, and

extravaganza and the burdens of the
taxpayers unduly increased The res
olution further sets forth that the
governor has disregarded the laws of
the state, and set himself above the
law and courts by refusing to carry
out their mandates, and that he has
catered to the most radical elements
and encouraged conditions approach
ing anarchy in certain sections of the
state
1t is stated here that the recall Pc
titions will be circulated in every dis
trict in the state. According to the
provisions of the statute, rs per cent

quired is about 1880 names.

TUCSON. Ariz.. Oct. 2s-That CO.
conino, Navajo and Apache counties
may become the mining districts of
the future is the declaration of Prof.
Charles F. Willis of the university
school of mines. In an article given
out today, Prof. Willis says:
IN the northeast corner of the state
of Arizona are three large counties
occupying an area of almost one-third
of the state. Coconino, Navajo and
Apache are counties of big area and
but few people. If you should ask
them if mining played any part of
their business they would consider it
quite joke, but two large coal fields
are situated within that area.
South of Winslow in Navajo coun-
ty, is one of the largest semi -bitumin-
Gus coal fields in the western United
States but it is absolutely undevel-
oped yet. In the southern part of
Apache county is another coal field,
the Deer Creek coal field, from which
good quality of bituminous coal has
been obtained.

sibilities in asbestos from the Grand
Canyon. asbestos whose fibre has
proven up better than the usual quail
