It is surprising tho way the rains in
tho valley and tho snows in tho bill
have raised tho price of cattle. Stock

storm, now they are being held. Four
cattle buyers arrived from tho coast
this morning to arrange shipments.
Thoy found cattlo just $2 per head
higher than when hero before. How
ever, they can afford to pay the ad
vance because cattlo are in good con
dition. Tucson Citizen.
Jim Stovens has found a valuable
deposit of guano in a cave in the Gilas,
some eighteen miles from Solomon
ville. It is said the Graham moun
tains also abound in numerous caves
in which guano is to be found, and
several Solomonville parties are mak
ing arrangements to open some of
them. The averago price of guano
per ton is about $32, but it depends en
tirely upon the amount of phosphates
and ammonia contained in the deposit.
Sorao of the assays of the product in
this locality have shown as high as
$105 per ton.
A Phoenix paper says, that on
account of tho abundance of feed in
the Salt river valley the past few
months, between 200,000 and 300,000
sheep have been takon to that valley
from tho northern part of the territory
for pasture and shearing. This is the
largest number of sheep that have
been taken to iho valley for several
years. The shearing has commenced
in good shape and alreaey about 300,
000 pounds of wool has been shipped
to Boston market. It is estimated
tnat over 1,000,000 pounds will be
shared and shipped from Phoenix this
soason. This is about twice tho
amount of last year. The price is
very good, also, and there is a gen
eral air of prosperity among the
sheepmen.
Stewart Christal was bitten by his
dog this week, and but for prompt in
terference the St. Bernard would no
doubt have had a choice meal of him.
Stewart on Tuesday changed his at
tire in some manner which made him
look strange to the dog, and on his
return home from town the dog at
tacked him, biting him in the arm and
leg. Mrs. Christal came to her son's
rescue and was having a hard time
endeavoring to make the hugo beast
loosen his hold on her son, when Mr.
Dagg appeared on the scene and, after
a fierce struggle, succeeded in making
the dog let go. Mr. Dagg's appear
ance saved Stewart from being ser
iously bitten. Dr. Hathaway dressed
tho lacerations, and Stewart will soon
be around again. A St. Bernard is
of a very gentle nature, as a rule, but
when they are aroused it is hard to
to approach them. Winslow Mail.
Professor V. P. Blake, of tho Ter
ritorial University at Tucson, was in
tho city recently while returning from
the north, where he visited the Big
Bug mining district. Prof. Blake had
not been in that section for a number
of years, although he was at one time
quite familiar with that part of the
country, having been interested in its
development, but tho Val Verde smelt
er, running night and day and hand
ling tons of ore, the great Iron King
mining camp, the Poland tunnel, tho
new railroad, forcing its way into the
very heart of the rich Bradshaws, the
thousands of men working in every
direction, all greatly impressed the
professor, who takes such a hearty
interest in the welfare of mining in
Arizona that he expressed himself in
tho highest terms of praise for Yava
pai county in general, and the Big
Bug country in particular. Arizona

"I was troubled for several years
with chronic indigestion and nervous
debility," writes F. J. Green, of Lan
caster, N. H. " No remedy helped me
until I began using Electric Bitters,
which did me more good than all the
medicines I ever used. They have
also kept my wife in excellent health
for years. Sho says Electric Bitters
are just splendid for female troubles;
that they are a grand tonic and invig
orator for weak, run down women.
No other medicine can take its place
in our family." Try them. Only 50c.
