Wbere the Climate is pure
Hnd tbe Hlr is Balmy.%

Exceedingly Small Rainfall.-At Tue
son the rainfall for the whole year is only
about eleven inches. Some years it is
not even as much as that. During the
nine months, October to June inclusive,
1894-5 there were but twenty-five cloudy
days snd nine of those were in one
month
Ten nperature.-During the months OF
une, July and August the average tenn
Derature is about 80 degrees, but there
SO little humidity in the atmosphere
that no inconvenience is experienced.
There being but limited irrigation in the
leighborhood of Tncson there is no
humidity produced in that way, as is
notably the case in the neighborhood of
Phoenix, where agricultural develop
ment has through the aid of irrigation
reached a great stage, The fall, winter
and spring months can be compared
with the Italian cline Flowers bloom
during the entire winter months.
Wonderful Dryness of Climate.-There
Is nothing more remarkable about the
climate of Tucson than its dryness. 1t
is phenominal. There isno such thing as
what is called sultrv weather as in the
east. A recent visitor to Tues on Joking
ly remarked that mot even the rains
| seemed damp" 1t is fact that the eff
feet of a heavy shower is observable for
but few hours. LII this dry climate
sunstrokes are unknown. The dry air
| induces exceedingly rapid evaporation of
the abundant perspiration. AS mat
ter of course the supply of fluid must be
maintained, hence one drinks a great
deal of water here.
Good Water at Tucson.-Everyone is
aware of the Importance of good water,
and this Tucson certainly has. More
over there are two ice factories which
supply any quantity of beautiful ice.
Effect of dry Climate on Temperature.
Another effect of the extremely dry eli
mate is that the sensible temperature is
tar less than that recorded by the ther-
mometer would indicate. Some claim
that there is a difference of as mach as
fifteen degrees between the sensible tenn
perature and that recorded by the ther-
mometer.
Climate the Only Cure for Pulmonary
Disease 1t is admitted that no medical
treatment has yet been discovered that
will cure pulmonary consumption. The
only cure is that ofclimate and in Tue
son the warm dry atmosphere seems to
be especially effcacious. AS to the special
advantage which its climate offers for
the relief and restoration of those suffer
ing from pulmonary complaints, note
what different prominent physicians of
the city saw:
DR.. w. B. Purcell, County Physician,
Observes-"It is an undisputed fact that
proper climatic conditions give the
greatest relief to those affected with or
having tendency to phthisis.
"When a phthisical tendency exists
great care should be exercised to prevent

Location of Tucson.-Immediatcl on
the line of the Southern Pacific R. r. in
the Southern part of the Territory of
Arizona. and on the edge of the Santa
Cruz Valley, lies the City of Tucson.
That it was first settled several centur-
les ago has little to do with what we
have to say here, but yet its story full
of adventure and romance lends an in
describable charm to the old town.
Evidences of Thrift.-Its antiquities
are, however, fast disappearing before
the march of progress. The adobe walls
that formed the battlements of the old
Mexican Pueblo have crumbled away
and the mission ruins are falling to
pieces. Prominent public buildings,
churches, stores and handsome modern
residences have been erected with beauti-
ful gardens, flowers and shrubbery sur
rounding many of the latter. Old streets
nave been graded, new ones laid out, and
other improvements made which give
thrifty appearance to the city.
Foreign Element.-Of it's population,
however, consisting of about ten thou
sand people, large Mexican element re-
mains, and it's presence gives foreign
air to the community as also do the

topography. The location of the city
IN a vast amphitheatre as it were, sur
oumled by beautiful mountains. and
.esting under the canopy of the lovehest

roads in the vicinity make driving and
n,cycling an especial pleasure. In every
direction charming mountain views

Ppblic Library. Tucson has well
selected library.
Hotel ommodations.-T@e hotel
accommodations are ample, and for
those preferring them there are cottages
and rooms for rent at reasonable rates.
Tucson as Health Resort.--Itjq how
ever of Tucson as a health resort of
which we wish to speak especially here,
and first of all let us say tho it is situat-
ed almost in the centre If the climatic
belt recommended by tbs United States
Medical Commission, AS the most favor
able region in the United States for those
afflicted with pulmonary ailments.
Altitude Abov the Sea The altitude
OF Tucson is about z, 400 feet above the
sea, and this by the way seems medium
altitude particularly suited to those suf-
fering from such diseases.
The Rainy Searon.-July, August and
September cons itute the so-called
rainy season." nut the rains during
these months, VIII there are any, while
hey are often violent are nothing more
than showers. 1t soon clears off and
the sun comes out as bright as ever. In
tuly of this year there was scarcely any
rain. In no country are there SO many
days of sunshine as in Arizona.
The Tucson citizen., 1902-09-10

patients should be sent to the arid re-
gions so soon as there is evidence of in
fiction from the tubercle bacillus. and
should be made to remain there until
they are well, or until it is apparent that
the case is hopeless.
"Many physicians in the east order
| patients to California for the winter.
apparently with view of sending them
to dry climate. The relative humidity
in southern California is as great, and
in some instances greater, than that o.
the Atlantic coast, and many of the best
physicians in California regularly send
their tubercular and asthmatic patients
! to Tucson. California is a beautiful
country, but the fogs which come In
rom the sea, and the emanations from
the vast irrigated regions, make it far
inferior to the inland desert regions for
phthisical patients. think it NAV be
assumed as a general rule that wher-
ever there is irrigation there is high
degree of relative humidity. and patients
suffering from pulmonary phthisis
should never be sent to an irrigated dis
trict. Indeed, some of the California
physicians have declared that irrigation
and malaria go together
''The city ct Tucson has, in my opin-
ion, advantages as a health resort
which can not be equalled anywhere in
North America. know of no locality
where such a moderate winter climate
and such low degree of relative humid
ity are combined with tie same latitude
and altitude. It rs no longer considered
imperative to send tubercular patients
to an altitude of s. 1000 feet, or over. In
fact, clinical experience has proven that
more frequently patients required to be
sent to an altitude or less, rather than
more than 5000 feet. The altitude of
Tucson is 2.40O feet. and that seems to
be amply high for all but the most ex-
ceptional cases. The city is situated in
a basin near the underground Santa
Cruz river. 1t is completely walled in
bv massive mountain ranges. To the
north is the Santa Catalina range; to
the east, the Rincon; to the south. the
Santa Rita; and on the west, the Tue
son. Each of these ranges has an alti-
tude of 5000 feet at least. Mount LIE.
mon, the highest peak of the Catalinas.
has an elevation of 10000 feet, and
Mount Wrightson in the Santa Ritas.
reaches an altitude of nearly 11,OO0
feet.
The scenery at Tucson is as impress
sive ais anywhere in the Rocky noun
tains, and the gorgeous sunrise and sun
set beggar description.
During the nine months, October to
|une, inclusive, 1S945, there were but
cloudy days, and nine OF
these were in one month. Some idea OF
the transparency of the atmosphere may
be had when | state that, at midday
