Yuma County's Exhibit.

This county ne.s sent as an exhibit to the territorial fair at Phoenix a-}ist of articles of which it can be proud, in- deed. Perhaps finer showing agricul- turally could not be made from any point iu the world, not excepting even the valley of the river Nile. Corn 2 feet, sugar cane IT feet, cotton S1 feet and grape vines 80 feet in length, sweet potatoes weighing 21 pounds and waternelons weighing 40 pounds seem almost mythical to persons notacquaint- ed with the wonder of Yuma county soil.
 It is well, indeed, to advertise this valley. The time has come when the widest publicity must be given our To- cal res0udces. Capital is not needed so much as the small farmer. The man who will buy and care for ten acres and cultivate it intensely is the most desir- able newcomer at this time. The valley is assured of at least 2,0O0 acres under water from the Gravity canal under government operation from this time forward and every acre of it should be made 10 produce the wonder ful crops it is capable of producing. The world must be made to know about the big proposition that awaits people who are wiling to come here and work.
 The following exhibits are on exhibi- tion at the fair.

vote. Some business interests,

The people unfavorably affected

that such good folk could be so
rude. So long have they counted
on prayer meeting piety being neu-
tralized by ballot box regularity,
that when people who pray go into

prayer the result is an unpleasant
