have had many calls of late for 5, 70 AND 20 ACRE TRACTS.

of land near enough to the business center of Phoenix so that a man could do business in the city and live on a small place in the country. Having this in view I have purchased so acres lying 3-4 mile west of the fair ground on the Christy road. The ground lays just right for subdividing into 5, 10 and 20 acre tracts and each tract fronting on the Christy coun- ty roads The soil is of the richest alluvial and of the best straw berry land in the valley. With the land there is a water right in the Mar icopa canal and an independent lateral belonging exclusively to this tract of land, all the way from the canal to the land. I am going to put this tract on the market at S1OO to $125 per acre for a short time This is far below the value of land in this immediate vicinity and I am justified in saying that the surroundings are of the best in the valley. It also has the proximity of the street car to Phoenix. If you want something that will double in value in a year or two. Here is your chance.

The March Smart Set.

The Smar Set has fairly outdone it. self in the March nun Der, which marks the beginning of the sixth year of it's existence. The com plete novel is "The Princess Elopes," by Harold McGrath, an author whose immense popularity is due to the fact that he is a born story teller. MT. MacGrath is at his very best in this charming tale of a European princess and young Amer. ican medical student. It is delight. ful blending of romance and delic te humor, touched everywhere with the delft hand of an author who has mas tered his craft. Nothing better of it's kind has appeared in 8 magazine in many month.
 Among the dozen short stories in this number half are by authors who have been either entirely unknown hitherto to magazine readers or are just coming into prominence. It ha: always been the avowed policy of The Smart Set to encourage young authors and this issue proves the wisdom of the policy.
 If the Smart Set maintains the stand ard of this nun Der even approximate ly for the coming twelve months, the future success of the magazine will be as sure as it's past.

Crazy Geology.
Success

A great many intellectual crimes are committed in the name of geology, and many men of otherwise good judg. ment have been misled by these dreams. The Pearson shore line theory of ore deposits is even today attract ing considerable attention. It is un derstood that this theory, in general, cls ims that coal and iron were depos. ited along the ancient shore lines in bays, where the current could eddy and carry the driftwood or the iron all examination of the maps and a study of the contour lines, this wise one claim. to be able to sit in his of. flee and locate coal or iron beds in any part of the world. A few years ago he brought his theory to the attention of James J. Hill, of the Great Northern road, and secured some kind of con tract by which he was to explore for coal in Montana and Washington. Coal was found and MT. Pearson claimed a million dollars as his com mission un der the contract. The case was taken to the courts nd the whole theory was laid before a jury. Mr. Pearson was awarded hOJS, being wages and service for the time he spent in the work, { the case convicted Mir. Hill of being a I very poor geologist. Last summt r | Pear son interested some Duluth peo. | pie in d proposition to locate iron ore by his rule of three theory. He was given full sway to select the location and several thousand dollars sub scrbed to pay for the expenses of drilling. The drill was located near Ely, in the Vermilion district. The first rock struck was greensboro, and the drill continued in greensboro 800 feet. Mir. Pearson still believes his theory, but those who lost by this last ] venture are somewhat skeptical.
 l In this connection, it is inter esting to remark that a good many operators in the Lake Superior iron mining dis. tricts pl ced considerable stress on lines of elevation. Mr. Van Hise has given some weight to this theory by discussing it in the paper on the Lake Superior iron deposits. It seems, how. ever, that this relation between sur. face elevation and the iron deposits in the Lake Superior district is inciden
 tai and not essential. The fact is that the known mines already vary so much from the theoretical altitude that the exception h become the rule.-Min. ing World.

of Basiachic, means that new life will be put into the great Jesus Maria camp which has been regular pro- ducer since 1916 when it was discovered.
 The mine is said to have been pur- chased for 43SOOOS gold. Col. Greene brought in from the Belvanera Mining company, of which John c. Beatty of New York was the leading spirit, and assumed the mortgage on the property to the Banco Minero. The deal with the bank was arranged by telegraph last week.
 Undoubtedly Greene's advent into Ocampo and it's extensively mineral ized zone, means that he intends to build a railroad into it. Greene never does things by halves, and railroad is the only hope for the building up of that district to the point of which it is capable. The cream near the surface has been taken off and the entire dis trict is now at the point where nothing but railroad will rejuvinate it and make it what it should be, another Cripple Creek, according to all mining experts.
 For 88 years the camp has been pro ducing at a profit with 90 mile pack haul to overcome, and until the Chi huahua and Pacific was built to Min aca in 1899.-all supplies went from this city, ll5 miles farther. This proves what rich campi it is and has been. Yet the entire district is not more than scratched. d.-Chihushu Enterprise. To free his famous Palmilla mine, at Parr l, Mexico, from the water which has been encroaching gradually during the past year or more, Pedro Alvarado is now installing three electrical pumps, w..ich will carry the water 10 the valley below, where it will be used for irrigation purposes. The pumps will be run with electricity furnished by the electric plant purchased year ago by Alvarado. The installation of the pumps will make possible the em. ployme of an additional number of worknen, while the water will permit increased agriculture in the valley, the major portion of which is owned by Alvarado. The original scheme of Al varado was to erect pumping plant which would clear all the mines in the Parral district. The mines were to be unwatered on contract and Alvarado believed he had project of incalcu' lable benefit to the mining industry at large in that section. Presumably investigation by his engineers showed the i'm practica bility of the project, as he has since decided to put in pump ing machinery for the Palmilla mine only. The scheme is pretty one, and in fact in many of the mines in the arid regions the water from the mines is of utility for uses of the plant and in some cases for domestic purposes The idea of turning the expense of pumping water from Che mines into g profit from irrigation of the surround ing country is worthy of such a fertile genius as Senor Alvarado, who, in ad dition to his wonderful wealth, has great energy and progressiveness.- Mining World.
