A Purely Vegetable Stood
Remedy is the Only
Cure.

If the people generally knew the
true cause of Rheumatism, there
would be no such thing as lini-
ments and lotions for this painful
and disabling disease. The fact is,
Rheumatism is a disordered state
of the blood-it can be reached,
therefore, only through the blood.
But all blood remedies ear not cure
Rheumatism, for it is an obstinate
disease, one which requires a real
blood remedy-something morethan
a mere tonic. Swift's Specific is
the only real blood remedy, and it
promptly goes to the very bottom
of even the most obstinate case
A few years ago I was taken with in
Hammatory rheumatism which though
mild at first, became gradually so in
tense tina I was for weeks unable to
walk. I tried several prominent physi-
clans and took their treatment faith
fully, but was unable to get h slightest
relief. In fact, my condition seemed to
grow worse, the pains spread over my
entire body, and from November to
March I suffered agony. l tried many
patent medicines, but none relieved me.
Upon the advice of a friend I decided to
try s. S. s. Before allowing me to take
it, however, my guardian, who was a
chemist, analysed the remedy, and pro-
nounced it free OF potash or mercury.

\ white nan first set foot on what is now Yuma County in l77l. It IS the southwest division of the Territory, and one of the four original counties of the Ter ritory. Many great reclamation projects are however on foot, and in few years ex- pect to see Yuma County rated as the richest in the Territory.
 The first glimpse the traveller from Cali fornia catches of Arizona is that of the picturesque town of Yuma, which is snugly situated in the embrace of gentle rolling hills, upon whose crests and sides the modern homes of our superior civilization are crowding the adobe dwellings into eternal oblivion. Yuma is the gateway o .arizona, the new empire of the West, upon whose undereloped riches the eyes ot the country are at present turned, and as such'
 is bound to grow and prosper with rapidity that at present can hardly be re- alized. But coupled with her geographl- cal position we find that she is the center of a country whose agricultural posslblll- ties are practically unlimited, being sur rounded by soil the fertility of which exceeds that of the delta of the Nile, and wanting oaly water to become paradise Of bloom. Billions of gallons of that precious uuid have annually gone to waste at Yuma's very doors, but already reaction is taking place aGd many enterprises are on foot to supply the life giving waters of lhc yellow Colorado to the thirsty earth.

MINES.

There is no section of the United States, or probably of the earth, more rich in min cral wealth than the County of Yuma. An the country north, east and south of Yuma lies directly within the main gold belt that commences in Alaska and ends in Mexico
 From the San Brrnardino mountains in California t. the Sonora boundary line tine mountains and hills are exceptionally rjch iu thc precious metal, as though demonstrating the theory often advanced that the richest gold mines are found bordering the beds Of

extinct oceans. The great Colorado desert was once an inland sea, cut off centuries and perhaps ages ago from the main ocean, leav- ing its waters to evaporate in this intense heat. Throuahout all the country border ing the desert, including this section, llch mines are being constantly discovered, and some of recent location are already produc- ing immense profits. In the neighborhood of Yuma, claims exceedingly rich on the surface are daily being located, and all signs portend great mining boom for this county which will culminate as early as the coming fall in an inroad of much capital Experts are arriving every week andmines are being bonded at more than heavy prices. It seems wonderful to believe that all this min eral wealth has been lying at our very doors for so many years without taker, but the tendency of prospectors is to go a long dis tance off into strange lands rather than to seek for mines in Q county as old as Yuma County and so accessible. The greater the distance, the hardship, and the danger, the greater the fascination for the prospector. Distance seems, indeed, to lend enchant- ment to the view.
 So it is that this county is almost virgin field for the mine hunter, and now with the few hundreds searching in it's mountains its mineral secrets are still in effect secrets, for thousands upon thousands might be wander ing through the rock-ribbed fastnesses oi our mountain ranges and their presence be almost unknown, so vast is the extent of country
 Recent rich discoveries of gold deposits, particularly in lodges, have given great impetus to mining throughout the county.
 New locations are being constantly made, and all show well upon the surface. The La Fortuna mine, recently put in operation has a 2)-stamp mill running night and day and the production of gold averages $75, ,0O( per month. This mine is situated about 3( miles southwest of the village of Yuma.
 Rich gold discoveries have also been made in Castle Dome, Harqua Hala, Centennial Palomas, Pot Holes, and other mining dis tricts, and, although the mining or lcok il the county was never better, still IIost O the silver and lead mines are idle, owing to the low value of these metals.

RIVERS OF YUMA COUNTY.


 In regard to climate, healthiulness, Ter tiIity and productiveness of soil, facilities for cultivation, irrigation and abundance ot water supply, variety Of resources and cheap transportation by rail and by water, no part of Arizon can surpass Yuma county, which is destined to become one Of richest and most prosperous counties Tn Arizona.
 If lies between 32O 00' and 340 20> north atitude and ll3o 2O> and ll40 40' west longitude. It contains C, ASS. 320 acres. It is about as large as the States of Rhode Island. Connecticut and Delaware com- bi.ed. or as large as either New Hampshire, Vermont or Massachusetts.
 The western boundary of Yuma County is formed by the Colorado river, which se,arates Arizona from California. The county is ho4nded on the north by Williams Bark and the Santa Maria river, whose waters flow into the Colorado; on the east bv the counties of Pima, Maricopa and Yavapai, and on the south by Sonora, Mexico. Its county seat is the town of Yuma.
 The Colorado river drains the entire ter ritory of Arizona, and every drop ot water which falls on its mountains and plains 6nds it's way to this mighty river It IS torr,ed bv the union of the Green and Grand rivers, fed by the streams which rise in the Rocky Mountains. and the melt ino snows cause a greater depth ot water ;n +b;s riv..r m summer than in winter, thus furnishing the most water at the season when it is most required for the purposes
 irrigation and agriculture.
 will be seen that for the entire distance ,ong it's western boundary, Yuma County nosse, ses the great advantage of cheap water transportation.
 The Gila river rises ln the western part of New Mexico and is fed by numerous streams, among the most prominent of ub;cb are the San Pedro, Agua Fria, Has, sayampa and Salt rivers. It flows west through Yuma County and empties into the Colorado at the town of Yuma.
 Yuma county, traversed by these great rivers from its northern to its southern' and from it's eastern to its western bound aries. possesses a far greater water supply than any other county in the Territory,
 7 Cor ,,,o,a than can be found in all Cali fernia.
 This water is now being diverted from its natural channels by means of numerous ,arre irrigating canals, and utilized for the nurpose of retaining and irrigatlng the immense tracts of lands which lie in this favored country, and which are as fertile as an+ in the world.
 The Southern Pacific Railroad crosses the Colorado river at the town of Yuma and ,nns through the county, following the ronerol course, and at an average distance of about four miles south, of the Gila river, rendering all the lands susceptible Of lrrl- cation and cultivation. can find an easy ontlet in this way and can be transported osu the markets and centers ot population in thc East or West.
 Another competing railroad is projected from San Diego. California, to tie town efYuma, and thence along the north side of+I,e Gila river. TLus Yuma County will nave excentional railroad advantages.

It's Attractions and Advantages as q
 Place of Residence in Winter.

WhiteIaw Reid. owner and editor of the New York Tribune, who has spent the last two wint CTS in Arizona for the benefit of his health, writes entertainingly and in structively concerning that part of the country. Mir. Reid says:
 So many questions are asked about Ari- zona as place for winter residence, and there appears to be such dearth of pre- else information among many who are vitaIly interested, that it seems almost a public duty, to set down, in the simplest form, few facts of personal observation.
 WEATHER,
 During a five months residence in Southern Arizona in winter there was but one. day when the weather made it actually unpleasant for me to take exercise in the open air at some time or other during the day. Of course there were good many days which weather observer would de- scribe as "cloudy," and some that were ''showery; but during these five months (from No' ember, 1855, to May, l096,) there were only four days when we did not have brilliant sunshine at some time dur ing the day. Even more than Egypt, any where north of Luxor, Arizona Is the laud of sunshine. As to details:
 TEMPERATURE.
 I have seen the thermometer mark 92 degrees in the shade on my north piazza in March. On the other hand, we had frosts which killed young orange trees, and there were several nights when thin ice formed. The government reports show mean temperature for fourt cen years at the pres ent territorial capital of 573 degrees in November, 55 degrees ill December, 49 de grccs iu January, 54 degrees in February, q degrees H.
