400x125 feet, for ornamental trees and plants, immediately behind which would come large space for the house, barn, vegetable garden, berries and vineyard, there would still be left in the rear room for three hundred and fifty fruit trees for which space any or all of the following may be selected: Oranges (Navels, Tanger- ines, Mandarins, etc); olives (Corri- giolo, Morrinello, Frantoio, and other fine varieties); grape fruit (Triumph and Seedless) lemons, Hines, figs, dates, apricots, almonds, apples, peaches, pears, pomegranates, etc.
 Ernest W. Bowditch, a we'll known landscape gardener of Boston, Mass, was employed to furnish the design for this property. A Barry and s. F. Cochran of Phoenix were the engi- neers; R. Toohey, the contractor, had charge of the grading of the roads, ex- cavating the lakes and reservoir. The latter is three hundred and eighty feet across and provides for a depth of seven feet of water. It will have an outlet into the main ditches and will be used in irrigating the plants.
 The Salt River valley, with it's al most tropical winter climate, it's cloud less days, and dry, invigorating atmos- phere, offers to the army of tourists and health seekers, who annually leave the northern and eastern cities to es- cape the rigors of winter, an almost 1 ideal retreat. It was these advantages potent to all who come here that lent to the purchase and improvement o this property, and it is these advan tages of climate and scenery, of soi and other resources that will be se forth by the owners of Las Palmas II illustrated literature extensively dis tributed, and thus be of material ben eft to this valley.

stance the temporary lapse of certain regular events. On the other hand, the most enjoyable entertainment given under the auspices of the ladies of the Monday club last Saturday evening. and the St. Patrick's ball. would seem to indicate readiness to improve any opportunity for a good time. The ladies' club entertainment had the ad- ditional charm of novelty in the sat isfactory programme offered, and it is hoped their ingenuity will devise other ways of catering to the amusement of the community.
 The ball on the 17th was also huge success, its patrons evidently carrying with them a proper appreciation of the very worthy objects of the cele- bratlon. I think there was not one of us who did not give an extra fling to the heel, or heartier stamp on the floor, when we thought that in small way we were showing our ap- preciation of our gallant fire depart ment, and at the same time paying tribute to the memory of the most noble St. Patrick.
 l A familiar and welcome addition to Prescott entertainments was the ap- i pearance on our streets last week of detachment of the Salvation Army. Efforts have been made in the past by | the army to effect permanent lodg- ment here, and it is not altogether com plimentary to the town to think they have not succeeded, as we can hardly fiatter ourselves that there is no room for them. It will be interesting to watch the working of the present corps. Their efforts are in no way half-hearted, to be sure, and their non- success can only be attributed to the resistant character of the material they are working on.

 The trees and plants, some four thousand in number, were furnished by Dr. F. Franseschi, botanist, of Santa Barbara, California, and the ca Santa Barbara, Los Angeles and Pasa dena were taxed to supply them. The property is surrounded by thirty foot esplanade planted in pepper trees, inside of which is a sixty-fve foot road, bordered with olives on the south, oranges on the west, olives l and lemons alternately on the north and grape fruit on the east. l There are seven broad entrances to this property and six miles of main avenues, one hundred and thirty feet in width, winding gracefully in curves so gradual as to be scarcely noticed in driving over them. | The feature that will perhaps ap- peal most strongly to one acquainted with the magnificent winter climate and unequalled resources of this val ley is the dimensions of the lots de- signed. The smallest of these have d 1 frontage of two hundred feet and a l depth of six hundred feet, equalling in size seventeen fifty foot city lots. Re strictions will be made, SO that no stores or saloons can be placed on the property, a limit in price of buildings fixed, SO that no temporary or un- slightly structure can be erected, and all buildings must be set back at least l 125 feet from the street, as shown by the dotted line on the map Lots will not be offered for sale for a year or two at least and none will be sold until additional improvements, not yet an- nounced, have been completed ! Los Palmas lies in the finest part of the valley, four miles from the city, and under the shelter of the Phoenix mountains. The soil is a light, sandy loam, especially adapted to the cul- | ture of fruits and flowers. The tenn perature ranges about 10 degrees high CT in winter and several degrees cooler in summer than of Phoenix. The scenery is unsurpassed in this locality, presenting on its four frontages mountains, orange groves and alfalfa ranches.
 It will perhaps be interesting to note briefly what can be done with one average 1oti n Los Palmas to make it an attractive place of residence An average lot is 40Ox6OO feet in size Reserving the front of the lot, a space

DELIGHTS OF LAS PALMAS

Description of the Wondeful Eden Created by Messrs. Rainey and Smith Unequaled Anywhere in the Southwest.

William J. Rainey of the firm of Webb & Rainey, well known real es- tate brokers of Cleveland, O., has con- ceived one of the most extensive real estate enterprises this country has ever known. It has already passed the stage of speculation and become a reality. The grading of the roads is completed, the palms bordering the avenues have been set out as shown in the illustration, the lakes are ready for water, and there is very little left outside of a general trimming up of the property which work is now being carried on rapidly.
 MT. Rainey came to the Salt River valley for the first time during the winter of 1896, and he was immedi- ately impressed with it's varied re- sources. He found a climate such as no other place in the world is favored with, and his investigations in the valley revealed the great possibilities it affords in fruit raising and agricul- ture. The remarkable beauty of the country districts appealed to him with
Arizona republican., 1898-03-21

the rich green carpets of alfalfa, the leafy country roads with their cool shades in summer time, and the con- tinuous sunshine and warmth of win ter. His long experience in the real estate business and the growth and de- velOpment of places his efforts were instrumental in attaining where the natural conditions were far less favor able than in this valley, led him to select a section of land here as the in itial step in the consummation of his great undertaking. MT. Rainey has travelled extensively in California and the southern states; he has seen the famous garden spots of southern Cali fornia with their semi-tropical trees and the extensive improvements which make them inviting home places for persons coming from the rigorous eli mates of the northern and eastern states. The Salt River valley he found in it's infancy-just at the be- ginning of its growth and develop ment-and he was impressed with the future of valley with conditions much more favorable den spots of the California valleys.
 
 confirmed his most sanguine expecta- tions, and he was firmly convinced that the history of the Salt River val ley's growth would be even more re- markable than any of the famous southern California valleys Before i coming, here he gave the same unprej- udiced attention to southern Califor- nia, and the Salt River valley was l hn fo Ia p1o Inc could find to carry out his great en- terprise
 MT. Rainey has worked so quietly and unassumfngly that very little is known of his undertaking It was two months ago that the surveyors began their work. Thirty days were required by the surveyors. which leaves but thirty days from the time the present time. During this time broad avenues have been made throughout the section, a large reser- voir has been excavated in the north east quarter besides the two lakes in the central portion of the property the irrigation ditches are already car rying water to the young palms along the avenues, and there is nothing left to be done but general cleaning up oi the property. Associated with MT Rainey is J. Hoyt Smith of Milwaukee who has entered into the work with the same enthusiasm which Mir. Rainey has shown. They are devoting their entire time to it. When the magni- tude of the enterprise is appreciated and the short time in which so much has been accomplished is considered it will be seen that these gentlemen possess the ability to handle a large undertaking as easily as though il were a ten acre tract of land
 The appropriateness of the name se- 1ected-Las Palmas-at once becomes apparent on visit to the property palms in great variety being the chiel feature of ornamentation. Six mile; of main avenues are bordered with the Canary Island palm, whose long grace
