of the Mexican border, and he found in Hicks most of the traits depicted ir the "Virginian." Mexican friends of Hicks sent him as q wedding pres ent a box of dolls, representing twelve characters in Wister'S novel.
 For eleven months of the year the couple will be al home at some camp on the CT. O." ranch of 1,250,000 acres on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande, and probably leo miles from Q post-of- flee. Very likely there will not be woman, except of the Indian or Mexi- can peon class, within fifty miles.
 Hicks is one of the best-known cat tlemen on southern ranges. Big, gen. tie, clear-headed, resOurceful, and with fine reserve, he is all that Wlster painted "The Virginian."

I have had many calls of late for
 5, 10 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 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 ,, 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 $1OO 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.
