that the finest muskmelons sold in

however, in the valleys Of Afghanis-

probably owing to the physical con.
ditions which arc prominent. The
Santa Catlina, the Rincon, Tucson
and Santa Rita form circle Of high
mountains, curving three quarters
around the valley. Toward the
West stands another range, all Of
which prove a complete barrier to
storms. While three of the summer
months are warm during the day, the
nights are always cool. This is on
account of tho raritied condition of
the atmosphere. 1t becomes in
stantly cool on the setting of the
sun, there being no humidity to re-
tain the heat. Beef never spoils,
only dries up. The fall, winter and
spring months can be compared with
the Italian cline. There is little or
no frost. Flowers bloom during the
winter months and much of the
shrubbery retains it's foliage. 1t
scarcely ever rains and very little
farming is done. Irrigation is too
costly. If Tucson was near Wal
halla she could probably borrow
some of our showers of rain. The
country is barren, only few mes
quite bushes, which grow downward
instead of upward. A small load of
wood can De gathered from the roots
cf one bush. The Indians gather it
and bring it to town on Mexican
burrows, selling it at eight dollars
per cord.
There are some three thousand
Indians in and around Tucson doing
most of the hard menial labor.
They live peacefully and have good
schools. Nine miles from there is
one of the oldest mission churches
in the United States where they
worship. The Sawxavier was built
in 1853 by the Spanish.
Being Territory, where every
kind of sport is wide open, there are
few crimes, only petty thieving.
Mining is carried on extensively
throughout the Territory. Copper
predominates over the minerals.
Silver is next and every man is q
silvcrite. Making short visit into
Mexico | had to have Mexican
money, 80 l took two dollars and
twenty five cents of American coin
and received five dollars in Mexican
coin i'll exchange.
Tucson has population of ten
thousand, mostly Mexicans. Span
ish is spoken by seven -eighths of
the inhabitants. There are two
daily papers, but they contain little
news of the outside world. The
churches and schools would grace
any of our Eastern towns or cities.
They have able preachers and teach
ers. Most of the houses or adobes
are made of mud. Living is very
expensive on account Of the railroad
rates. The people are anxious for
the Nicarauga canal to be cut.
There are a great many peculiarities,
but space will not allow more to be
said for the present.
olooe by saying that with all of
Arizona'a pure, dry air, Walhalla
can easily make up for it in more
ways than one. J. r.. BRYCE.

1t is entirely unnecessary to suffer
damage from potato bugs. Either
Paris green or London purple is
deadly poison to tho bugs, and may
he so applied as to DO no harm to
the vines. The best way to apply
tho poison is to mix with water at
tho rate Of one pound of the poison
to 80 gallons of water. One mix
ture sprayed over the vines is sure
death to the bugs. For those who
have only q small area in potatoes,
and who do not possess a sprayed, it
