FROM DESERT TO GARDEN,

in the history of the United States. Consider carefully the following points:
 First-The Imperial Settlements comprise the largest body of irrigable land in compact form to be found in the United States, having an abun- dant supply of cheap irrigation water the area being estimated at 500,OO0 acres in the United States and half as much more in Lower California.
 Second-The price of water is the lowest to be found in any irrigation system in America-the quantity, quality, variety and value of the pro- ducts grown being taken into con sideration.
 Third-No other irrigated section of the United States ever offered land and water at so low price consider ing the ultimate figures that such prices must reach
 fourlH-No oIner lfTlSdIeu SecIlon of the United States can produce so much feed to the acre for the fatten- ing of cattle-an industry that can never be overdone.
 Fit.A-No other section of the coun- try can produce early fruits so early in the season, thus enabling the set tiers to establish an early fruit in- dustry that must forever sweep the cream of the market every year.

From Worthlessness to Wealth.

and rails are being piled up at old Beach ready for use. The Southern Pacific Company is under contract to have the cars running into I'm perial by the first of September, 1902.
 It is the intention of the railroad company to extend the line to Calex- ico as soon as business will warrant such an extention, and build branch lines to Silsbee and Eastside, thus covering the entire country and plac- ing all business centers of the I'm perial Settlements in direct railroad communication with Los Angeles and the East.
 This Southern Pacific branch is the immediate successor to the Imperial & Gulf Railroad Company, which was organized several months ago, and which commenced construction work as soon as incorporated.
 As resume of the situation under the heading of "Finally-Points to be Considered" the following strong points are made:
 From a careful perusal of the fore going pages, it can be readily seen that the Imperial Settlements are unique in character and that they are making rapid growth unparalleled
Imperial press and farmer., 1902-08-09

Sixth-No other irrigation enter prise in the United States ever placed so much land with water rights in the hands of the people in so short a space of time. This rapid settle ment must continue and it is the rapid settlement that always must make rapid advances in valuations.
 Seventh-This rapid rise in valua- tions will not only apply to acreage property, which must be the founda- tion of all prosperity, but it will apply with still greater force to the town property, in such towns as Imperial, Calexico and Silsbee. Experience shows beyond all question that such an acreage as is to be found on this great plain, with such water right, and capable of maturing such crops, must support large towns and cities as commercial centers, and these towns and cities must keep up with the rapid development of the country. Hence town property in these towns must become very valuable and prices must advance very rapidly as soon as railroad facilities are completed.
 Eighth-A soil that will produce from six to eight crops of alfalfa per season that will average from one to two tons of cured hay per crop; that will produce seventy-fve bushels of barley and sixty bushels of wheat to the acre, as has been done in these settlements this season; that will produce cantaloupes and early fruits four weeks in advance of all other localities outside of this great inland valley; such soil must yield returns that will pay interest on one hundred dollars per acre and with the rapid settlement made here during the past year, that ultimate valuation must soon be reached.

Desert to Garden" The matter in this pamphlet has been carefully re- vised and brought down to date and new illustrations have been utilized in place of some of those that were found in preceding issues.
 Among the additions and revisions we find several statements to which attention is directed. Under the head of productions is to be found the fol lowing statements regarding barley wheat, sugar beets, rice and early vegetables:
 Barley has been successfully pro duced during the current season of 19O2-thousands of acres having pro- duced very heavy crops of hay that would have yielded from fifty to seventy-five bushels to the acre, had it been harvested as grain, but there was more profit in hay
 Wheat, also, has been very suc- cessful crop. The acreage was not so great as that of barley during this season, but the yield has been very satisfactory, and many fields, if saved for grain, would have yielded from forty to sixty bushels per acre. 50 successful has this crop been that representative of Tucson milling company recently visited Imperial and contracted to take the entire wheat crop of the Settlements next season up to 3O,OOO acres, paying the Los Angeles price therefor delivered on the cars at Imperial.
 Sugar beets are being thoroughly tried this season, thus far with good success. The growth is all right ana if the mature beets show good per centage of saccharine matter, tnls country will prove to be one of the best-if not the best-beet sugar sec lions of the United States. Expert ments heretofore made have devel- oped sugar in the sugar beet in satisfactory manner. If present crop natures as sugar beets have here tofore matured, this country can sup port ten or more beet sugar factories the size of the one at OXnard, and the season will be much longer than in any other section of the country.
 Rice seems to be one of the com ing industries of that Settlement. three-acre tract has been planted to rice this season and at the present writing, July 15, 1902, it looks re markably well, and the indications are that it will yield big crop ot fine quality.
 Early vegetables have done remark ably well this season, and there is now no question but that these Set dement's will be the early vegetable gardens of the Pacific Coast, having practically the entire United States for a market.
 Under the head of railroads the pamphlet says:
 The Southern Pacific Railroad Com pany- is~ Bs4il lds&e% branch line into Imperial from it's main line. This branch leaves the main line at old Beach station, which is located a few miles west of Flowing Well the former point of stage departure. It
