Arizona’s Goal Deposits.
The Coconino Sun in a lace issue
says:
“The discovery of new coal fields
in Sonora, Mexico, is the subject of
much ‘favorable comment by out
exchanges from Southern Arizona.
Judging from the tone of some of
the notices given, it is strange that
so many of the newspipers of that
section know nothing of the large
coal fields lying in Coconino and
Apache counties. fie fields arc
the largest west of the continental
divide, and will supply the Pacific
coast for ages to come. In many
places the co 1 1 deposits are foray
feet deep and twenty feet wide, and
contain th ? best of coal for domes
tic purposes.
These fields commence east of the
Little Colorado river, aid extan 1
northeast to the San Juan, cover
ing many hundreds of square miles
of valuable coal lands.
In eastern Apache county, north
east of St. Johns, there are also
large coa’ fields which are inexhaust
ible. There is no need for Arizona
to look outside of her own limits
for a supply of fuel for the present
or future.
The reason that these coal de
posits remain untouched is that
thej are, at present, too far from
the railroad, and that th-re is but.
little demand for coal, beyond the
supply now made from the Gillup
oal fields. With greater demand
roads will b ; built to the new source
of supply, and Arizona can supply
the world with coal.
The killing of quail in Arizona
will be restricted by prohibiting
their shipment from the territory,
thereby making wholesale slaughter
unprofitable te the visiting sports
men, who have annually made
money both by trapping and wing
shooting during the fall and winter
season. Frequently those interest
ed in the preservation of quail have
endeavored to stop these ravages by
outsiders, but without avail, but'
the seventeenth legislature passed
a law last winter which, if enforced
will have a decided tendency to
protect not only the • quail but all
other game and fish of Arizona.
Maj. Ed. Schwartz is fish and game
commissioner and he will prosecute
all violations of i.iv* game law.
Quail are exempt fnm destruction
from April Ist to September Ist,
during which lime none except the
owners of enclosed tracts are allow
ed to kill them and then only for
their own use,
Oar business outlook is much,
more favorable than it has been for
a long while. Although silver
mining is dead in this section, re
ports from many parts of Pima,
show that gold mining is taking an (
impetus warranted by the numer ,
ous discoveries recently made and ,
which if anything are increasing. |
The cattle industry is excellent, if
not so large as formerly. The rail
roads are doing a rushing business
and the shops are full of mechanics.
Artilichil irrigation ig day
aft r d .y opens up new araM lands.
Many of th • strangers who are
coming here to spend the winter,]
will al o cist around fo** available]
investments, an 1 incidentally leave
'•om money here. Trade too is
picking up materially. With a
good winter and a wet spring Pima
county is going to astonish the
year 1895. — Enterprise.

Under the above caption the
Tombstone Prospector says:
4 The bill which has pnssed the
f house and senate having for its ob
ject the “relief of miners” is one o i
the most outragH©** measures that
: a supposed sensible body of ftoeii
' ever attempted to enact. It is the
' bill which extends the time for do
’ ing the annual assessment work on
mining claims from Jan. 1, 1894 to
’ Jan. 1, 1895.
In other words, no mining cJaiut
can be relocated or b *con»*s op*o to
relocation on Jan Ist next. Such
a condition, if it becomes realistic,
will set back the mining states and
territories mote than the repeal of
the Sherman act. Hundreds of
mining claims are held in Arizona
by location bends or cranks who
will not do a stroke of work and
debar others from working them.
A large numb r *»f these cranks
who relocate their claims from year
to year rather than hold them, .by
doing the aunnal assessment workj
have left the territory during the
past year, and their claims should
be subject to relocation on Jan. Ist.
If this law should become opera
tive it will tie up two-thirds of the
mineral lands in this territory for
another year. The government
will virtually withdraw from settlr*.
ment two-thirds cf the mineral
lands or' this territory and inflict au
unpardonable wrong upon those of
us who have remained with the ship
through adversity. No honest mi
ner or prospecter wan* s to this
law in op* ration.
How to Keep fijsjpes.
The Farm and Home say * there
are hundreds es barrels of grapes
annually sent from Spain, and they
have to be kept weeks and months
after picking. The fruit is cut
from the vines with a sharp knife
before it is overripe. • It is spread
on bunches, twelve to eighteen in
ches deep, in a close room anti left
to sweat for a few days. All bro- _
ken and discolored berries are th**n
cut out with long, pointed scissors,
and the fruit is pasted in barrels
in dry cork dust. A layer of this
dust in the bvtorn and then a layer *-
of grapes, and so on wetSl the bar
rel is full. It is well shaken du
ring this process and all spaces tilled
' with the dust. The , barrels are
headed tightly and, shipp 'd Tb y
! are kept in cold places after b< ing
received in New York.
Native grapes may be kept in
the same way. Care must be exer*
cised in not letting got too
ripe. Select well formed bundles
and only such varieties »s h ivo a
tough skin and hang well to the
stem Those in which the bunches
are not too compact an prof ‘ruble
to solid bunches. Where c<>rk
dust is not attainable brun nnv >e
used, or very rt »'* saw dust, Store
the packages in a dry, cool place
and there will l»e no trouble to k i«p
the fruit till Christmas.
