DIR. Harrison f, Stroud says of tn,
Climate of Arizona.-"The summers ar,
not. There are some warm days in MAY
gradually increasing into June, and frcnl
then on until the end OF August the Their.
mometer ranges high, but with Septem-
ber comes cooler days and nights.
( The heat is peculiar it is never close
I and oppressive: there is never a sense oil
slffocat1on. The summers are the most
healthtul period of the year. The dry
( heat oXidizes and desiccates refuse mat
! ter and prevents fermentation that is
/ the great cause of disease, especially
among children, IN most countries during
/ the summer. TO my knowledge there
mas never been case OF cholera infan-
! tum IN the territory nor has there been
case OF sunstroke, except drunkards
Inebriated at the time. Ii is Uncommon
custom to sleep out of doors from the
middle oi May until September, and
many tas The writer sleep out during
the w'lole wear. There are not FIVE days
/ IN the whole year bIl The most delicate
invalid can spend part OF the day, at
least, out Of doors. In this climate in
Iuries and wounds heal very rapidly:
contagious diseases are usually very
mild. There has been no epidemic, ex-
cept in whooping cough for years.
The winter months, from the middle
ot September 10 the tirst OF May, are in
this locality the finest in the world One
bright sunshinv day succeeds another;
the nights are cool aud exhilarating; the
~hoie country green with the richest
