THE CASA CYANIDE VALLEY CANAL

60,000 acres of land, about 7,000 of which are under cultivation. It is so constructed that it can be easily enlarged and it's capacity in- creased. A reservoir covering 1,60O acres, having storage capacity of eight billion gal lons in the southeast corner of township 6, range 8, gives ample supply of water the year round to all farmers located below 1t, but those above suffer by shortage of water during a few weeks in summer.
 It is proposed to remedy this by the con- structiOn of huge reservoir at the Buttes, fifteen miles northeast of Florence. Com petent engineers have examined and reported upon the scheme and pronounce it feasible.

UNTOUCHED BY FROST.

Orange and lemon trees require slight pro- tection during the winter for year or two, until the wood is sufficiently hardened.
 While it is alpopular thing for one to say that he is not here for his health, it is an undisputed fact that for all pulmonary ail- ments no climate on earth is equal to South ern Arizona, and there are numbers of active, industrious citizens, with but one lung, who came here years ago, expecting to live but a few weeks. But for all that, the wonderful Casa Grande valley is something better than a health resort.
 That portion of the great Casa Grande valley lying along the line of the Southern Pacific railway in the vicinity of Casa Grande and Arizola Is at present, and with good reason considered one of the most desirable portions of this magnificent Southern Ari- zona. Great changes have been made in the appearance of this part of the valley during the last four years. 1t was about that long ago that the Florence canal was completed and the work of actual improvement begun. It is useless to deny that under our present water system there Is nothing like sutfi- cient water to irrigate this vast body of land

There are many handsome pri- vRte residences in Florence, several brick stores, good hotel, an excellent graded school employing four teachers, churches, secret societies, Q Commercial Club, news paper (the only one in the countyl, and the haads9mest court house in the Territory. Hera is held the United States Court for the district composed of GilR. Graham and Pinal counties. Ths streets are lined with shade trees, which impart an air of comfort on the war1nest days.
 PRODUCTS OF THE VALLEY.
 Unlike the Salt river, the waters of the Eila are fresh and pure; the soil contains no lllzah, is deep, rich gray ash, especially adapted to the growth of the prene, olive, almond beach, fig, pear, apricot and fruits Of all iziuds, which pay largely on the invest msnt. It is also the natural home ot alfalfa, which grows in the most prolific manner. The grape does exceptionally well in this valley and wine and raisin culture is destin- | cd to become prominent industry. Citrus | fruits have been cultivated to limited l extent; there are Q number Of orange trees
 in the neighborhood of Florence which bear
 their golden fruit each year without pro
 lection, and few date palm trees are also in | full bearing. The season is from six weeks 1 to two months earlier than Southern Calitor- nia, which gives fruit growers tn appreelat- l ed aGYantage in

THE EARLY MARKETS.

The absence of fogs and nightly dews is . formidable obstacle to the destructive and unsightly scale-bug, and the fruits of the valley are all bright and clean. All the agri- cultural products of temperate and seml- trGpic zones are easily grown here, the long seasons giving a succession of crops that double or treble the productive value of the land.
 PRICES OF LAND. Improved lands, with government title and water right can be bought for from S2O to $50 per acre, according to location and im- p-oveaneIits. In the immediate neighbor- hood aud to the south of the Casa Grande ruins there are thousands of acres covered with heavy growth of mesquite timber vel open to settlement. These are among the choicest in the valley. Water in inexhausti- bls quantity is found at depth of from twenty to thirty feet; in fact, river seems to be flowing underneath. Here is splen. did opportunity to take up and improve land with pumping system of irrigation which is said to be successful on small tracts
 However, with the completion of the Butte reservoir, pumping will be thing of ths past and it is only mentioned here for tht purpose of showing what can be done, and tC magnify the further fact that what was oncs considered

The Right Remedy Will
Danish it Forever.

If you would forever be rid of
the aches and pains, and some
times the tortures produced by
Rheumatism, you must take the
right remedy. Those who con-
tinue to suffer are relying upon
remedies which do not reach their
trouble. The doctors treatment
always consists of potash and
mercury, which only intensity the
disease, causing the joints to stiff
en- and the bones to ache, besides
seriously impairing the digestive
organs.
Rheumatism is a disordered state OF
the blood. and the only cure for it is a
real blood remedy. Swift's Specific Is.
s. S. goes down to the very bottom of
all diseases of the blood, and promptly
cures cases that other remedies cannot
reach.
Mr.. E.. Ks. Clinkenbeard. pron1i-
nent attorney of Mt. Sterling, KY,
writes:
