The Colorado Valley Industrious and
 PrOSDerOuS

Mr. R. P. Marable of Yuma was in town today. He is interested in the Yuma Valley Union Land and Water company and was very enthusiastic in his remarks concerning the future of that section. Two large canals are in operation distributing water over a large acreage of cultivated fields. Over 4,000 acres of alfalfa is under cultivation which will yield on an average of one and One-half tons to the acre. This is wonderful yield when it is considered that six crops will be harvested. The county is young yet and one cannot expect to see trees and orchards similar to the Salt River valley but the farmers are planting them, and it is expected within few years the flat will be beautifed with trees. All the land that has been taken up by hOmesteaders is now worth from s25 to S15O per acre. The inn proved patented land is all selling at over S75 per acre.
 The farmers are so fixed that they can have water during all the year. Heretofore they could only have water while the river was high. The canal companies are we'll supplied with dredges to clean out the ditches and pumps to be used when the water is too low to supply the gravity di.ches. The farmers are raising a lot of hogs and beef cattle. They get two crops of corn off the land. They expect to soon be in position to feed and fatten range cattle. A ready market is had for all the hay they can supply at SlO to SIP per tOn.-TucsOn Star.

SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP Cured by One Bottle of Chamber.
 Iain'S Cough Remedy.

"When l had an attack of the grip last winter (the second one I actually cured myself with one bottle of Cham herlain's Cough Remedy" says Frank w. Perry, editor of the Enterprise, ShOrtsville, N. Y. ''This is the hon. est truth. at times kept from cough ing myself to pieces by taking a tea spoonful of this remedy, and when the coughing spell would come on at night 1 would take dose and it seemed that in the briefest interval the cough would pass off and 1 would go to sleep perfect ly free from cough and its accompany ing pains. To say that the remedy acted as most agreeable surprise is putting it very mildly. I had no idea that it would or could knock out the grip, simply because 1 had never tried it for such purpose, but it did, and it seemed with the second attack of coughing the remedy caused it to not only be of less duration, but the pains were far less severe, and I had not used the contents of one bottle before Mr. Grip had bid me adieu For sale at Ketcherside's drug store.

Good Roads.

A scheme to ultimately give the farmers of Yuma valley first-class macadamized road into Yuma is now being advocated by MT. M. Winsor, Sr., road overseer of road district No. 1.
 The plan is to gain direct access to the immense decOmposed granite banks near the head of Orange avenue by opening a road from the one already built along the north line of Lynch's s farm, where it strikes the old pump canal, up over the mesa along the south line of the city limits. Mir. Winsor has been over the line and says it is feasi- ble and will give the valley an unlimit- ed supply of the best road material in the world, besides opening a shorter route to Yuma with grade no greater than that out Orange avenue.
