 EDITOR HERALD: A trip from Prescott to the Gila will convince any one that there is sufficient di- vcrsity of climate in Arizona to sat isfy the most fastidious. We left Prescott in a snowstorm. At Agua Fria, the same evening, we saw snow fall in the mountains, but none at camp. Next day proceed ing on our way towards Delectable Hollow Black Canyon), the wealth CT was pleasant and warm. At night a hailstorm. Next morning got our first view of the giant cactus, which, during the balance of our trip, re- lieved the tedium of mountain scene ". Upon our arrival at Salt River Valley, it seemed to us like a sudden transition from barren desert to a land of fertility and sunshine. The green foliage on cottonwood and other trees, the
 THOUSANDS OF ACRES
 Of wheat and barley already shad- ing the earth, garden vegetables &c., reminded us of May in Kansas.
 We wended our way to Hayden's Mill where we camped. Here we saw a splendid orchard of fruit trees, consisting of apples, peaches. figs, grapes, &c. Peach trees in bloom, and peas in bloom while others were ready for use. It ap- peared to us, that, putting the case mildly, it was
 SCARCELY NECESSARY.
 To resort to California for the gar den of the world. Thence, south- ward and east, for six or eight miles, we passed through an exceedingly fertile valley. Old farms being re- paired and many new ones opening. A number of new and extensive ditches are being opened and utilized to fertilize the valley, and what is more, there is sufficient water in the river for all. OBSERVER.

have good facilities for transporta- ton, and then the country will readily yield in its exports a capi tai far beyond its needs in imports.
 OUR GARDEN CROPS.
 These grow with a profusion and variety of range that cannot be surpassed. Gardens can be planted all months in the year and will yield abundantly. Last year some of our farmers planted potatoes in this way and had this esculent new upon their tables constantly throughout the year. Of course in the winter the hardy vegetables should be planted.
 THE MOUNTAIN RANCHES Of the county are well adapted to the growth of corn and potatoes, and offer most inviting field to all who wish to enter upon the profit able pursuit of pork-making. Sur rounded as many of them are by heavy thickets of oak there is abun- dant mast in most seasons, so that little other feed is required for large herds of hogs. As grazing regions
 FOR SHEEP AND CATTLE. The mountains and smaller valleys offer pleasant locations and great profits. Large herds of sheep and cattle now occupy some of the graz ing lands, and all are reported healthy and in fine condition. With abundance of nutritious grasses, pure air and water, and oc- cupying the best climate in the world, it is but natural that this should be so.
 OUR MINERAL WEALTH Is beyond calculation. Many of the richest and best gold and silver mines of the Territory are within the bounds of Maricopa county. To those already being worked, every day is adding new discover ies, and we hazard nothing in saying that when developed the mines of this county will employ an army of laborers so great that it will require the thorough cultivation of every acre of its arabic lands to sustain and feed them.

OF THE CEREALS.

Barley and wheat are the staple products of the fifteen to twenty thousand acres of the valley now under cultivation. Two thousand pounds of clean grain to the acre is the ordinary yield, Last year one of the large ranches gave return of three thousand pounds of barley to the acre. Oats seem to be indig- enous to the soil, and grow plenti- fully in any grain field that may be allowed to lie fallow, with occas- sional irrigation. This crop is held in no esteem except as pasturage. The grain crop is the present staple, for the simple reason that the de- mand of our home market lies in that direction. As soon as it may be required, the country is ready to show q rich prOductiveness
 IN OTHER CROPS.
 Of these cotton and sugar cane will undoubtedly be a source of great wealth and importance to this  valley. Both have been tried and succeeded perfectly. Cotton does not winter-kill, and the new plant springs up year after year from the old root and bears abundantly. Su- gar cane has been grown for the last two or three years with great success, and as there are no manu. featuring facilities as yet, it is only made up into syrup and the crude Mexican sugar cakes called panoche Important industries will grow out of these products as soon as we
