who will take the trouble to make

immense grain and alfalfa fields
will at once perceive and be thor
oughly and enthusiastically con-
vinced OF the unlimited agrioul-
tural and HORTICULTURAL possibilities
of Mesa's contiguous territory.
And while the sol! Is so rich as to
produce for the farmer such heavy.
crops as is seen to day, there Is not
to be found that snperabundance of
alkali which is found in many arid
regions. The reason of this is that
che depth of the soil is so great
and the subs,ratam Of sand, gravel
and water upon which the soil
rests renders it impossible to bring
the alkali to the surface by irriga-
ton in any form. Farmers OH the
Mesa need have no fears, now or
hereafter, that their land will be-
come impregnated with that salt
which proves SO detrimental TO
