Phenix Gazette: There is no place in
the world where homes can be beautiful
more cheaply than here ia Salt River
valley. Nature has provided all except
a little labor on the part OF the man, to
make the surroundings OF every home a
little paradise on earth. In the eastern
countries none but the rich can afford to
make home attractive; here the man OF
even limited means can surround his lit
tile home with attractions that would
make an eastern millionaire envy him
his place. Here nature has supplied the
ornamental part and left man to arrange
il to suit suit his taste. Many peo-
pie who have not visited this land OF ours
are desirous OF knowing something Of the
country before arriving here. To all
such we would say that every person Wis
ting the valley is at once impressed with
it's beauty. We have the best irrigating
system in the whole world. The valley
will produce any kind OF fruit known to
semi-tropical countries, and the noun.
tains surrounding Us are full OF precious
metals.
