S1.35 per GENITAL

Milk COWS $500 to $4,000
There Is at present about lis
miles of irrigatlng 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 $1,000 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
were built. This could be done
in several places, notably at the
narrows about Is miles from SAT.
ford where a box canyon exists
through which the river passes.
1t is from this point tho 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.
lance between the foot hills being
six miles. The valley is hanked
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 ella
or Graham mountains, the few
properties which have been de-
veloped show that the ore body
is practically ineXhaustable; while
copper predominates, thore is both
gold and silver in paying quantities
! It is q virgin field for both the
minor and captalust and one which
promises grand results.
The two principal mining COM
panies are the Detroit, at Morenci,
and the Arizona Copper Company,
at Clifton. The former employees
300 men and the latter 600.
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 $780,.
600 annually.
Experts are at present prospect
ing near Saffoad for coal.
There are twenty-five schools,
and one Academy in Graham
county. The examination for
teachers is very strict; only those
who are thoroughly qualified be-
ing able to procure certificates.
IL churches of different denomi-
nations look after the spiritual
welfare of the community. Soci-
ETY. is us refined here as IN any
of the old eastern cities.

Concerning Graham County, which are
Well Worth Serious Consideration
by those Seeking new Homes, or Men
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 ID 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 4 to crops
are grown yearly, yielding from 5
to 8 tons per acre. 1t is not as
stocl1y as that which comes from
the Salt River valley and is pre-
ferable for either horses or cattle.
Wheat, barley and oats grow
prolifcly, 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-tropicaI
countries. The apples equal in
size and flavor the prize winners
Of the eastern states. The seed.
ling fruits are unexcelIed in size
and general excellence. Apricots
and apples both grow with sur
prtsing rapidly. 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 fannie acid than any
ever sent to the extract works
from either Arizona or New Next
co.
Farming lands can be purchased
at from $50 to 500 per acre, in
Guiding Improvements and water
rights. ...
Uncultivated land without water
right is free to any settler under
the United States homestead law.
This class Of farms will eventually
become valuable when the canal
facilities have been increased.
The cost of maintaining the ca
nails which are owned by the farm
ers varies from 80 cts. to sl.00 per
acre per year.
The following are the market
values of the products of the soil

Kind words are the medium of
exchange that do the business for

editor with money, watch him.
He'll be paying bills and disgrac.

money to an editor. Make him
trade il out. He likes to swap.
Then when you die, after having
stood around for years and sneered
at the editor and his little Jim drow

send in for three extra copies by

when she reads the generous and

her to neglect to send fifteen cents
to the editor. 1t would overwhclm
him.
Money is corrupting thing.
The editor knows it, and what he
wants is your heartfelt thanks.
Then be can thank the printers and

Don't worry about the editor. He

and stand up for you when you

Truck Farming.

One fact has been evident to pro-
gressive farmers for years and that is,
to succeed they must diversity their
products. There was time in this
section when wheat and corn were
money makers. That is not now
true. The low price of cereals, caused
by the opening up of large districts
in this and other countries, and cheap
transportation, have made a change
imperative. He who first adapts him
self to the changed condition is GER
tain to reap an abundant harvest.
Located as we are within two or
three hours of large cities there is,
there can be, no reason why this Val
ley should not become rich beyond
the anticipations of the most san
guine.
But we are not dependent upon an
outside market. Right at home is a
market for all that can be produced
The cannery people are urging farm
ers to plant tomatoes, peas, beans,
pumpkins, to grow berries and fruits,
and get the cash for everything with
out the trouble of shipping. The ex-
perience of several men last year is
proof that there is money in tomatoes.
Many other vegetables will pay equal
ly we'll, yet there are those who hest
tate. This should not be- If we wish
to drive hard times from amongst us
we must get move on ourselves.
Let farmers come forward and con-
tract for one, two, FIVE or ten acres of
tomatoes. They cost less to grow
than corn and will yield five times as
much. Fifty to sixty dollars pei acre
is not impossible, while corn or wheat
has to be very good to yield ten or tf-
teen dollars.
Think of it farmers.

portation Of vegetables and fruit from

The present plan is to havecars loaded
at each station every other day. This
plan enables him to return crates in
the cars and thus make the same
crates serve throughout the season.
The stations in this county will be
soon provided tor and he hopes to &c
as far south as Clearbrook.
He is also negotiating with the B
& o. and hopes to be able to arrange
for cars at North Mountain and some
OF the stations East. This depends
largely upon farmers. IF they show
a disposition to take hold the railroad
company will do its part.
