LANDS AND SOILS.

The lands of Yuma County comprise the river bottoms and valleys and the uplands or mesas The bottom ands are moister and slightly mere fertile if indeed, it is possible to make comparisons where all are so wonderfully productive and prolific The uplands or nesas are warmer and, perhaps,

 pan which is impeEvious to water These soils havo been slowly formed by the decomposition of shales
 sandstones, marls. Hnlestones, etc., mixed with l g3nic and vegetable matter, washed down by the mighty rivers and have been gradually deposited during the course of centuries. The fertilizing brownish mud held in the wat olof the Colorado and Gila rivers resembles that from the Nile and | its quantity varies from O.1 to 0.5 per cent, though the water when even considerably discolor- | ed by mud is good drink resembling in this res pect the Missouri river water. chemical ahaly ysis i of the sediments of the Colorado and of the Nile exhibits wonderful similarity in the constituent | parts of each That uf the Colorado exhibiting a trife less potassa most phosphoric acid and car

Throughout all the country border ina the desert. including tA;s section, lieh mines are being constantly discovered, and some of recent location are already produc- | ing immense profits. h the neighborhood of Yuma, claims exceedingly rich on the surface are daily being located, and all signs portcnd a great mining boom for this county which will cullninate as early as the coming fall in an iEroad of much capital. Experts i are arriving every week and mines arc being bonded at mere than heavy prices. It seems wonderful to believe that all this min i oral wealth has been lying at our very doors for So many years without taker, but the tendency of proapectors is to go lohg dis tance off into strange lands rather than to seek for mines in county a5 old as Yuma County and SC 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 tbo view.
 So it is that this county is almost virgin field for the mine hunter, and now with the few hundreds searching Ill it's mountains its mineral secrets are still in effect secrets, foI thousands upon thousands might be wander ing through the rock-ribbed Gastnesass ot our mountain ranges and their presence be almost ausrown, so vast is the extent oI country
 Recent r.gh 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 Ic Fortuna mine, recently put in operation has 2)-stamp lrill rgmnng night and day and the production of gold averages $75, ,00( per month. This mine is situat2d about B miles southwest of the village of Yuma,

VALLEYS OF TIE COLORADO AMI
 CHA,

In the valleys of the Colurado and the Gila rivers there is room for thousands. It is not too much to say that nowhere within the limits of this broad Union can be found more desirable region for the making of a home. No laborious clearing cf the land is eGdired; it lies almost ready for the blow. Trees and shrubbtry have so rapid growth that within eightcln months the immig~ ant can surround his abode with attract;c1s which would require years to mature in less favored climates. Frpits rPen and are ready for market full month before the California products. The bright sunshine makes life g luxury, and the pure dry atmos- phero brings health to all who inhale it. For the establishment of colonies, such as are made in southern California, Arizona pre- sents unrivaled opportunities. Thousands Of acres now proGtless cap be made produc- tive by the construction of irrigating ditches, and there is no investment which assures larger or more permanent returns,
 The statement in this article on Yuma county are not exaggerated; in fact they fall short of doing justice in thls wonderful bit of country. Pineapples, dates, almonds and waiuuts will dc well Strawberries, rasp- berries, blackberries, currauts, gocseberries, and all varieties of small fruits can he suc- cessfully cultivated Indeed. Yuma County is not cnly the natural home Of the citrus and semitropical fruits, as almost every i fruit nut, plant, grain, grass, or vegetable which car be produced in either tropic of temperate zones will thrive in the rich and fertile soils
 With the bright prospects ahead of the town of Yuma and Yuma County there can be no better investment for capital seeking large and renumorative returns than is af- fordod here With a matchless climate, where all forms of disease known to the damp and rigorous regions of the east and north age unknown, where the bright sun shine kisses into bloom and fragrance every form of vegetation, and where the clear days and cool and balny nights are one long-con- tinucd poem of happiness and delight, we 1 can offer to capitalists an ideal field for in vestnent and to home seekers Q yeritable 1 paradise in which to settle.
