The climate of Yuma for nine months of the year has no equal, as we believe, in the world, and during the remaining three months of the year, comprising June, July and August, the heat is not oppressive. Even though the thermometer in mid-sum- mar may aa times rise above l000, and oc- casionally even reach ll00, yet, owing to the absence of moisture in the air, it is not oppressive. The atmosphere is pure, light and balmy. When the mercury marks the highest extreme of heat, a person does not feel that oppression or debility which is felt in the Eastern States when the mer- curY is ranging from SO' to sO'. The air is so dry that precipitation is absorbed as soon as it reaches the surface of the body, and at no time in the summer does the heat produce any discomfort.

Resources
 of Yuma County.
YUMA COUNTY.

A white man first set foot on what is now Yuma County in l77l. It is the southwest division of the Territory, and one of the four original counties of the Ter ritory. Many great reclamation projects are however on foot, and in few years ex- pect to see Yuma County rated as the richest in the Territory.
 The first glimpse the traveller from Cali fornia catches of Arizona is that of the picturesque town of Yuma, which is snugly situated in the embrace of gentle rolling hills, upon whose crests and sides the modern homes of our superior civilization are crowding the adobe dwellings into eternal oblivion. Yuma is the gateway to Arizona, the new empire of the West, upon whose undeveloped riches the eyes of the ountry are at present turned, and as such, she is bound to grow and prosper with a rapidity that at present can hardly be re- alized. But coupled with her geographi- cal position we find that she is the center of a country whose agricultural possibili- ties are practically unlimited, being sur rounded by soil the fertility of which exceeds that of the delta of the Nile, and wanting oaly water to become paradise of bloom. Billions of gallons of that precious fluid have annually gone to waste at Yuma's very doors, but already reaction is taking place and many enterprises are on foot to supply the life-giving waters of the yellow Colorado to the thirsty earth.

'Irrigating
 canals, bitches
 and Reservoirs.

The above cut illustrates an AUTOMATIC | WATER GATE, to regulate and keep in suDJectlon the rise of water in canal, due to an over-abund' ant flow, or to sudden rises in the canal owing 70 severe rains or storms.
 It is particularly valuable to have such Water Gate placed in lower bank of canal, at such points along it's line Where there are Ravines. Gullies, Arroyos, Foot Hills, Buttes, or Tableland as any rains or storms bring down at such points surplus of water that is very dangerous to the banks of canal. Tie Waste Gate, however, will prevent such damage, as it is
 SELF-ACTING AND A PERFECT SAFETY VALVE Relieving the canal at short intervals, of it's plus water thus preventing the washing away ot banks, and causing great damage generally, no alone to canal, but property owners all along the line who may suffer more or less damages there after for the want of water owing to the damaged condirio ion of canal and while such repair being made. Not only is it valuable to relieve canal of its surplus water, to prevent damage and ex- pense but by it's use the first cost of canal con- struction will be materially lessened the banks need not be made so high or wide.
 The device is extremely simple, and compara- lively inexpensive Its plan of operation is this:
 There is a pipe fastened to opening in the vertical gate, 1. When the body of water rises to the level of the upper end of pipe, 2, water runs freely into the tank B. which is immediately filled, thus overbalancing the weight, 4, which is on the other end of lever 5, thus forcing open the gates which suddenly relieves the canal of large sur plus of water. When body of water recedes below a certain level, no more water is admitted to the tank; therefore empties itself by small faucet opening 6, at the bottom; this being done, the weight overbalances tank, and brings down the lever, which, being rigid to the swinging gate, closes it. This operation continues at short in tervals, so long the body of water keeps rising over a certain level. The lever, gate, pipe and tank are all rigid, and hinge, or pivot, on hori- zontal shaft. The gate Hume or bex can be made any height width, or length desired. The gate can be hinged between any bulkhead without box.
 The Water Gate is Perfect Safety Valve, and ts to a body of water what a safety valve is to steam They can be made any size, corresponding with body of water and size of canal. It is secured by letters patent and for sale only by

The lands of Yuma County comprise the river bottoms and valleys and the uplands or mesas. The bottom lands are mOister and slightly fertile, if, indeed, it is possible to make comparisons where all are so wonderfully productive and prolific.
