Farms in Yuma County.


to smile, a year ago, at THE SEN
TINEL's efforts to make public the
advantages for agriculture Of our
valleys along the ella and ColOra-
do. Some of them have tried
farming, and their success has en-
couraged newcomers. One look
at the Chinamen's gardens, near
town, ought to convince any man
that there is money In raising veg
etables to compete against those
now brought by rail, over $50
miles. Notwithstanding the num-
berless little Mexican ranches up
the valley, we call attention to
RedOndo'S ranch with its 1900
acres Of grain, besides other crops,
and its tWenty-seyen miles of ir-
rIgating bitches. From this ranch
was last year filled the government
barley contract for Fort Mohave,
and from it were shipped carloads
of wheat to Los Angeles; from it
Redondo expects to fill the grain
contract this year at Mohave,
which he has taken at five cents
per pound, delivered. Sugar-cane
has done so we'll there that small
mill was brought out, and brown
sugar made, of fair quality, and
meeting a ready sale.
Oh the opposite bank of the ella
lie the farms of Amabisca and
Figueroa, irrigated by ditch TAX
en- from the rfvernine miles above.
Steve Berthaud is farming above
Mission Camp. Hendersonis TAX
ing out a ditch at Antelope Peak
The Noyes Brothers have put in
q big crop on the north side and
like it so well, that they have
commenced to make a larger ditch
Ios farming on a more extensive
scale. Baker last year expert
mented so successfully, that he
also is charging his operations.
But the boss farm is that Of James
Peck, at Mohawk. We saw it last
year at this time and found the
thriftiest crops we had seen for
many years. Peck says they are
better this year than last. His
barley yielded $3.50 to $500 pounds
to the acre and his wheat did bet
ter. He has now about 100 acres
in barley, twenty-five in wheat
and ten in vegetables. From re
ports of all who have seen this
farm, we can safely point to it as
an advertisement of advantages
offered for farming by the ella
valley. The soil is better than
that OF Salt River valley and so is
the water-leSs alkali in it. All
that can be done in farming
around Phoenix or Florence, and
more, can be done in Yuma cOun-
TX. All along the ella there is
always water enough for grain OF
for trees, at the proper season fol
irrigating; and along most Of il
there IS water enough at proper
seasons for most other crops. The
Colorado has water at all times
Frost never catches fruit-buds ii
Yuma county Is it sometimes does
higher up the ella. Spring here
is cool and allows grain to fill well
Summer and Autumn are warm
and mature semi-tropical crops
Winter is balmy and is the season
for grain TO grow. Opposite Mo
hawk are a number of Mexican
farms. But there is no lack o
examples, even if the newcomer
were unwilling to predicate re
suits of farming in Yuma county
upon those attained for severa
years past in Maricopa and Pinal
There are yet great tracts of un
occupied land here and there i
plenty Of water. Taking out
ditch is a heavy expense for an.
one individual, but associated eff
