Arizona Railroad, which has a line
surveyed and which will tap the ex-
tensive coal fields west OF the La

most of his time in San Juan County.
He states that there will be a little
more than half a crop of apples In the
orchards and that there are also some
peaches. A high price will be real
lied, as fruit is very scarce throughout
the West. immigration into San Juan
County is not very great, but steady.
The farmers, despite the short fruit
crop this year, are doing very we'll.
