Seeking Profitable Investment for
Capital.

The agricultural resources of the
ella valley are both varid and ex-
tensive, comprising an area OF
arabic land of which there is at
present tributary to canals and
bitches, 10000 acres which is
capable of being irrigated. The
principal products are alfalfa, wheat.
corn, barley, oats, vegetables, de-
cidiOus andcertain classes of citrus
fruits.
This is the natural home of
alfalfa, of which from to 5 crops
are grown yearly, yielding from 5
to 8 tons per acre. 1t is not as
stocky as that which comes from
the Salt River valley and is pre-
terable for either horses or cattle.
Wheat, barley and oats grow
proliiicly, the former containing a
very large amount of nutrition.
Yellow dent, white gourd and
other large varieties Of corn yield
productivity, vegetables are large
and solid and come to maturity
two months earlier than IN the
eastern and middle states.
The valley and Hill lands are
adapted to all Of the products of
the temporal zone, and many Of
the fruits of the semi-tropical
countries. The apples equal in
size and flavor the prize winners
Of the eastern states. The seed
ling fruits are unexcelled in size
and general excellence. Apricots
and apples both grow with a sur
prising rapidity. The peaches in
appearance and taste are identical
with those which come from the |
famous orchards of New Jersey.
Canagrie grows wild, some of
the tubers being as large as good
sized potatoes. Tests now show
that canagrie root, which flourish
es near Thomas, IN the lower por-
ton Of the valley, contains a large
er per cent Of tannic acid than any
ever sent to the extract works
from either Arizona or New Mexi-
co.
Farming lands can be purchased
at from $50 to 500 per acre, in
improvements and water
rights.
Uncultivated land without water
right Is free to any settler under
he United States homestead law.
This class of farms will eventually
become valuable when the canal

Milk COWS S25.00 to $4,000
There is at present about lis
miles Of irrigatIng canals and main
bitches, not including the lateral
bitches which will make the total
several times this amount. This
gives ample water to assure crops
for about $4,000 acres. When the
Enterprise canal is finished it will
water several thousand acres of
rich table and bottom land. 1t
has been estimated that a quarter
Of million acres Of additional land
could be irrigated if storage dams
we're built. This could be done
in several places, notably at the
narrows about Is miles from SAT
ford where box canyon exists
through which the river passes.
It is from this point the Enterprise
company are building their canal.
Graham county covers an area
of 1000 square miles.
The ella valley is 35 miles from
the narrows to the edge Of the res.
ervation, with an average width OF
bottom lands of two miles, the dis
tance between the foot hills being
six miles. The valley is fanked
on the north by the ella mountains
and on the south by the Graham
mountains, Mount Graham being
the highest peak, with an altitude
Of ten thousand feet above sea level.
Although but little prospecting
has been done in either the Gila
or Graham mountains, the few
properties which have been de
veloped show that the ore body
is practically ineXhaustable; while
copper predominates, there is both
gold and silver in paying quantities
1t is q virgin field for both the
minor and captaitlst and one which
promises grand results.
The two principal mining COM
panies are the Detroit, at Morenci,

The output Of the Arizona comp,
any is 20 tons Of copper per day
and of the Detroit about 10 tons
per day. These two companies
alone pay out for labor about 5000,
600 annually.
Experts are at present prospect

There are twenty-five schools.

Make Money at Home.

From the Atlanta Constitution.
A Geographic item from Adairsville,
printed in the Consultation of yesterday,
deserves more prominence than was then
given it.
1t was therein stated that Mr., J. E.
Scott had made large shipment of eggs
to New York city, his recent shipments
amounting to thousands of dollars.
Large shipments of farm products, it
seems, is no uncommon thing for the
4dairsville station totmake. Chickens,
butter, peas and all such hold their wn
and correspond with the egg shipment,
as is shown by the freight and express
books at that place. What is true of
Adairsville is also true of all the towns
along the Western and Atlantic railroad.
The figures OF the shipments from
Gainesville, on the southern railroad,
would astonish many people iu Georgia.
Such facts as these prove that there is
money on the farm. There are farmers
in wiregrass Georgia who make hundreds
Of dollars year from sales of honey.
Last fall farmer on the line of the
Marietta land North Georgia railroad
sold his apple crop for $1,000. Instances
might sbe multiplied il which intelli-
gence b s found way out of the finan-
cial middle and made the farm pay.
There is hardly farmer in Georgia
but could make some money by sending
to market some article of necessity.
