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

Exceedingly Small Rainfall.-At Tue
son the rainfall for the whole year is only
about clever inches. Some years it is
not even as much as that. During the
uine months, October to June inclusive,
1S94-5 there were but ttwenty-hvec cloudy
DAYS and nine of those were in one
month
Ten. .perature.-During the months OF
une, July and August the average tenn
Oerature is about 90 degrees, but there
so little humidity in the atmosphere
that no inconvenience is experienced.
There being but limited irrigation in the
,eighborhood 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 great stage, The fall, winter
and spring months can be compared
with the Italian cline Flowers bloom
ds1ring the entire winter mouths.
Wonderful Dryness of Climate.-There
is nothing more remarkable about the
climate of Tucson than it's dryness. 1t
is phenoninal. There is no such thing as
what is called sultrv weather as in the
east. A recent visitor to Tucson joking
ly remarked that mot even the rains
seemed damp" 1t is a fact that the eff
feet of heavy shower is observable for
but few hours. In this dry climate
sunstrokes are unknown. The dry air
induces exceedingly rapid evaporation ot
the abundant perspiration. AS mat
ter of course the supply of fluid must be
maintained, hence one drinks 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 i:
tar less than that recorded by the ther
mometer would indicate. Some claim
that there is a difference of as mach a.
fifteen degrees between the sensible tenn
perattire and that recorded by the ther
mOmeter.
Climate the Only Cure for Pulmonar,
Disease 1t is admitted that no medica
treatment has yet been discovered tina
will cure pulmonary consumption. Th
onIv cure is that of climate, and in Tue
son the warm dry atmosphere seems tt
!; be especially efficacious. AS to the specia
advantage which it's climate offers fo
the relief and restoration of those suffer
ing from pulmonary complaints, not
what different prominent physicians c
the city saw:

the line of the Southern Pacific K. k. 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 Thritt.-Its antiquities
are, however, fast disappearing before
che march of progress. The adobe walls
chat formed the battlements OF the old
Mexican Pueblo have crumbIed away
and the mission ruins are falling to
nieces. Prominent public buildings,
Churches. stores and handsome modern
residences have been erected with beauti-
h1l gardens, flowers and shrubbery sur
rounding many of the latter. Old streets
nave been graded, new ones laid OUT, ana
other improvements made which give
thrifty appearance to the city.
Foreign Element.-Of its population,
however. consisting of about ten thou
sand people, a large Mexican element re-
mains. and it's presence gives foreign
air TO the community as also 90 the
adohe buildings in which they manly
dwell.
ouographv.-The location of the city
- j vast amphit heatre as it were, sur

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 a view of sending them
to dry climate. The relative humidity
in southern California is as great, and
in some instances greater, than that "a
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 may 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 ot 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
itv are combined with the same latitude
and altitude. It is 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, father than
more than 8, 900 feet. The altitude of
Tucson is 400 feet, and that seems to
be amply high for all but the most ex-
I ceptional cases. The city is situated in
a basin near the underground Santa
Cruz river. 1t is completely walled in
by 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 Le-
mon, the highest peak of the Catalinas,
has an elevation of 10000 feet, and
Mount Wrightson III the Santa Ritas,
reaches an altitude of nearly II ,0O0
feet.
"The scenery at Tucson is as impress
sive as anywhere in the Rocky noun
tains, and the gorgeous sunrise and sun
set beggar description.
During the nine months, October to
Tune, inclusive, 1894-5, there were but
twenty-five 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 midd ay
and with the unaided eye, have seen
Venus when it was but ten degrees east
of the sun."
The Tucson citizen., 1902-08-27

we did not have brilliant sunshine at
some time during the dav. Even more
than Egypt, anywhere north of Luxor,
Arizona is the land of the sunshine.
THE nights throughout the winter are
apt to be cool enough for wood rires
and blankets. Half the time an over
coat is not needed during the day, but it
is never prudent for a stranger to be
without one at hand.
The atmosphere is singularly clear,
tonic and dry. l have never seen it
clearer anywhere in the world. 1t seems
to have about the same bracing and ex
hilarating qualities as the air of the
great Sahara in northern Africa or OF
the desert about Mount Sinai in Arabia
Patraea. 1t is much drier than any part
of the valley of the Nile north of Gatar-
act. 1t seems to me about the same In
quality as the air on the Nile between
Assouan and Wady Halfa, but some
what cooler.
"As to food, there is plenty, and it is
good. From here the markets of Los
Angeles, and even of d. nvcl are largely
supplied. Good beef, mutton and popl-
try are plenty and cheap. Quail, ducks
and venison from the vicinity can also
be had. Vegetables and fruits are abund.
ant in their season, and sometimes the
season is a long one. 1t is the one coun-

The Arizona Kicker, will be greatly mys-
/ tilted. He will find as many churches
as in towns ofcorresponding sizein Penn

of liquor shops, too, and gambling
houses and yet he will see little disorder
unless he hunts late at night for it, and
he will find d community of ten thou
sand people requiring i'll the daytime
( only one policeman, and very little oc'
cupation for him"
DR.. A. W. OIcott, health officer of Tue
son, says:-"The climate of Tucson is
characterized by pure, dry, invigOratine
air; a small amount of rainfall, and ar
ever-shining sun. 1t is surrounded by
mountains which cut off the chilling
winds of winter, and the dreaded Sane
storms of most arid regions. Its south
ern position gives it mild winter eli
mate. These conditions render pleasant
an out-of-door life the entire year, anc
permit those suffering from lung anC
bronchial diseases daily exercise and lift
in the open air. This treatment, in spite
of nunberless cures for consumption, ex

fidence of the people and of the medica
. profession as the best single means
known of combating the dread disease
, tuberculosis. The out-of-door life, Will

it's development. AS humidity is such an
important factor in the cause OF com
sumption, those affected with or having
predisposition to lung disease should
Immediately seek the proper climate tar-
orable to their condition.
"The climate of Colorado has beer re-
commended for its beneficial effects for
consumption; my long residence there
gave me ample and sufficient opport-
unity of Judging climatic conditions
there existing during the summer months.
The mountainous portions of Colorado
undoubtedly have beneficial effect ON
berculrsis subjects. but cannot re
commend Colorado during the fall and
winter, as the changes are often severe,
becoming raw and cold within a few
hours, and as these are atmospheric con-
ditions to be avoided, 1T would not be
advisable to spend these seasons there.
Those having peculiar type of consti-
tuition with a hereditary tendency to
consumption would do well to avail
themselves of an opportunity and come
here and remain exempt from disease.
st is a fact that those born hereof
tuberculosis parents seldom ever have
the disease develop. SO long as they re-
main in this climate. It. is my opinion
that there IS no other section OF the
United States which will compare favor
able with that in and about Tucson for
the relief of pulmonary affections.
DR.. A. C. Jones, of Tucson, said:-"The

Proverbs Fine Corn.

One day the past week John
Prowell, who lives two miles north
east of Columbia, brought the States
man a sample of his corn, which he
thinks the finest in Boone county.
He planted two grains to the hill,
and brought II hill, which yielded
8 ears, us a sample of his remarkable
corn. Two grains planted produce 3
stalks, thus most of the stalks
contained two ears. a catalogue
describing this corr says the variety
has been known to produce 325
bushels to the acre. One thing is
certain-if every hill in Mr.. Prowell's
field is like this, he has the best corn
in Boone county.

Swallowed the Door Knob.

This snake story with affidavit at
tached, is told by the truthful editor
of the Ashland Bugle, this county:
Mrs. John ID. Crump missed a
few days ago a white door knob
which she used as a nest egg. Her
husband shortly afterward ran across
a large blacksnake which looked to
him like it was swelled up with it's
own Importance or something else.
Mr.. Crump dispatched the serpent,
and inside of it discovered the indi-
gestible aforesaid white door knob.
