ARIZONA.
Her Great ResOurces---Splendid
 SoiI---Fine Climate.
Agriculture One of the Important
 industries of Arizona.
No Fertilization of the Soil Neces- sary--SiIt Deposited by Irrl- gatiOn Renders the Soil
 Rich in the Element
 of Fertility.
The Climate Conditions Favorable to a Great
 Variety of Marketable Produce.

The following report from the direc- tor of experiment station, IS published as giving fair resume of the conclu- sions which have heen reached in re- gard to agriculture in this territory:
 One ct the most encouraging signs Of the times in connections with Arizona is the growth of her agricultural interests. These interests, by creating settled population and certain sources of wealth, insure the Territory, as whole. against those excessive fuctuations in popula tion and finance which are so often observed in purely mining communities. Although but small percentage of the total area of Arizona is under cultivation, yet when the actual amount and productiveneSs of these lands is considered the place of agriculture among the industries of the Territory is very important Arizona has and always will have land in excess of the water supply available for irrigation, without which agriculture can, excepting in rare instances, hardly be considered. Out Of about 72S00,0G0 acres in the Territory only 5702,CO0 acres are privately owned, Of which about 450,000 acres are under irrigation ditch. For the total amount of land under ditch. there is not sufficient water in al instances to insure crops; but in time there can be little doubt that the storage and development Of water will lead to the successful irrigation Of much more than the area under ditch.
 The future of agriculture in Arizona is, with out question. mere than usually good, and for
The Arizona sentinel., 1901-11-13

the reason that the conditions Of soil, irrigation and climate combine to produce an uncommon variety and amount of marketable produce The soil of Arizona, as is usual with the soils of arid regions, are rich in the elements of fertili ty, requiring only the ever-necdful water, skill and industry in their management to secure abundant returns. The fertility of cultivated soils in irrigated regions is further assured by the deposite of silt brought upon the land with irrigation water. The problems Of fertilization, which become so serious in humid sections are therefore of much less importance here and not to be so carefully reckoned with in connection with the future of our agriculture.
 The most marked advantage in connection with agriculture and horticulture, especially in southern Arizona, Is the climate. From January to June the temperature resembles that of spring and early summer in the latitude of Ken lucky. From June to September the climate is Of subtropical feryor while from September to November there is second mild season of tenn perate weather The winter season, from Nov ember to January, though subject to sharp frostS in southern Arizona, is not seriously or even uncomfortably cold.
 Owing to this combination of seasons a re- markable variety Of crops may be found in the same locality at different times of the year. Strawberries, which flourish in Greenland, may ! be found on the same land with dates and palms from Sahara. Alfa,fa the great forage Of the arid West, f1ouliShes alongside with wheat, | corn, and sorghum, respectively characteristic Of Minnesota, Illinois, and Kansas. Oranges. | lemons, and olives from California may be found | ir the same nCighoorhcod with peanuts and
 sweet potatoes from Virginia. In brief. many
 of the leading crops Of both temperate and sub 1 tropical countries, which are not affected bv l a arid atulCSnh6re by the 1rOStS Of winter { flourish in southern Arizona In northern Ari. zona. where the temperatures more resem ole
 those of northern Illinois. many Of the more dis | as nOtatoes, apples, and various small fruits.
 When with this diversity of produ stS is ! coupled healthful, and for the most of the year | agreeable, climate it will be seen that agrcul. i tural in Arizona possesses distinct advantages

It is north or the Gila River and about 20 miles from Mohawk Summit, on the Southern Pacific Railroad. This is the nearest station the railway. There are several other locations besides those conveyed to the King Of Arizona.
 The RomeStake location covers the chief workings up to this date. There is on this claim strong vein of gold-bearing quartz. This lode or vein haS three well-marked divisions or layers. On the hanging wall there is a soft layer from to 319 inches wide, which averages abous S2, 500 per ton in value.

Prince Chun and his suite from Pekin
to Taku, from which port he will pro
coed by steamer to Shanghai. He will
sail from Shanghai July 20 for Genoa
and will proceed directly from there to

There were in 1880 $50 places of more
than 1000 population each, with an
aggregate population of IL 936,110, or
25.S per cent Of the population. About
one half of the urban population of
1900 was contained in cities of over
100000 people. There were 3S of these
cities. with combined population of
14.20S,376. There are now l,150 places
Of over 1000 people in the country, as
against 800 in 1890. The population of
the District of Columbia is regarded
as urban.
The census Office has issued 'bulle-
tin concerning the urban population OF
the country. 1t shows that 2S,411 ,63S
people in the United States live in cities
and towns of over 1000 population.
This Is 1913 per cent of the entire popu-
lation. gain of almost per cent since
the census Of 1890. when the percentage
was 32.9. Compared with the census
OF 1880. the report shows gain in the
urban population of the country OF
more than third in percentage and
Of considerably more than double in
actual numbers.

Plans for the big street fair and jubi
lee. which Spokane Elks are to hold in
connection with the Spokane Interstate
Fair. are rapidly being completed. The
Elks have secured the old fruit fair
site In the rear of the Auditorium block
and will have large tented and en-
closed space. The main tent which has
seating capacity for 10000 people will
contain the principal entertainment
feature-the Royal Italian Band. This
Is the recognized Royal Marine Band of
last year, larger and better. The Inter
state Fair will run in the day time and
the Elks will hold forth at night. Both
commence on the same date, but the
Elks continue three days after the fair
has closed.
The street fair will differ from any
other event OF the fair kind ever held
in Spokane. A speciality will be made
of Industrial exhibits. In connection
will be Midway Plaisance, similar to
those that were seen at Chicago and
Omaha and Is now prominent part Of
the Pan-American Exposition. In this
Midway will be a German village, an
Algerian village, Streets OF Cairo, and
Mexican village and theater. Arabs,
Turks, Mexicans and representatives Of
other countries will be seen in exhibit
tions of their national dances, sports
and customs. This Midway will prob
and jubilee. when 1t will give way to
a complete change Of program lasting
until the end.
After the Midway has been aban-
doned, 1t is proposed to hold most OF
the entertainment In the large tent.
This will be arranged hippodrome fash.
lon with the Royal italian Band in the
center and reserved seat section on
both sides. This will leave space for a
large ring inside the quarter poles of
the tent. Inside this ring will be held
military tournaments with both infan-
try and cavalary drills, athletic sports,
rock-drllling contests and many other
things. One OF the main events to-
wards the close will be an amateur cir
Gus given entirely by the Elks.
A strong committee Of business men
has taken hold of the matter Of street
illumination and they have promised
that the city will present true carni-
val appearance so far as electric light
ing ingenuity and the best of artists
can make 1t.
Spokane Elks have just completed a
100000 temple and the dedication of
that will be one of the features of the
jubilee. Prominent members Of the or
der from the east will be on hand to
assist in the dedication. No less than
200 new members will be initiated and
there will be social sessions, parades,
banquets and a grand ball.
