Tested the Cutters.

The heavy dewnpour of rain last Thursday furnished thorough test of the Main street drainage by the new yutters, and the flood was carried off quite satisfactorily. Second street and Madison avenue, however, did not fare so well. It was demonstrated that the drainage on these streets is very defect i've and that no time should be lost in remedying it. If there is any way to provide fer il, Madison avenue should be made to carry of most of the Hood water coming from the higher ground. Such heavy showers as that of Thurs day last are not common here, but they do come occasionally and the damage they threaten when long continued ought if possible to be provided against. Some attention should be given to giving better drainage on Second be- tween Main street and Madison avenue, out with most of the food waters from the hill carried away by the avenue route the Second street drainage would give but little trouble and could be perfected at slight expense.

rieSa Lands.

Lying along the west side of the. PalO Verde valley is what is known as the Mesa lands, so GOO acres in extent. T he soil is of a superior quality, being a sandy loam of chocolate reddish color. It is claimed by those who have studied the soil that it will produce superior grades of citrus fruits, from six weeks tu two months earlier than the orchards of RedlandS and Riverside. Winter vegetables will certainly flourish on tbiS Mesa when the magic wand of ir- rigation shall wave over it as it is near frostless as can be found. That this is true has been abundantly demonstrated st the celebrated Blaisdel ranch situ- ated on similar soil near Yuma, Ari zona. This experimental citrns ranch has shown the superior quality of fruits produced under the fervent Arizona sunshine. In flavor and color they are more than the equals of any competi- tors. Some day in the near future cap tal will seeE to bring water on this Mesa from the Colorado river and then will be demonstrated the most success full efforts at producing extra fine re- suits in fruit ttrat has been seen in many a year,-Palo Verde Valley News.
