All ships look alike to DR.. W. C.

prevailing in the winter months. chickens are free from the disease that make their raising difficult elsewhere. There is no spot in South ern Illinois or Missouri so adapted to the pro- duction of corn as this valley along the Cobra do River. With alfalfa and corn. the butter. cheese, eggs poultry and pork to be raised on a twenty-acre farm will amaze those who have the experience in American agricultural affairs
 The winter climate around Yuma is thing so intoxicatingly Salubrious That no words can describe it. Those deserts of America as we have regarded them heretofore seem to defy the Ills that human nature elsewhere is so prone to contract and suffer from. The atmos- phere is as dry punk, the skies cloudlessly clear the air mild as possible, and every breath seems to be an inspiration of new life The United States has an experiment. farm on the mesa just on the outskirts of Yuma. Here
 ults even more marvellous than in the valley are produced Down on the lower levels there are little nipS of frosty mornings occasionally during December and January but on the mesa the breath of frost never touches the most del icate vegetation. Oranges groyFn at the Feder- al experiment station are unsurpassed in their delicious quality.
 Yuma is busy. up-tO-date town. The more modern Improvements consist of several blocks of attractive brick buildings. a three-story post office building, also of brick, and many other nice structures. Among some of the greater improvements which are being made, are 8 SS5,O0O school building, a $75.OO0 ice plant, fine clubhouse for the railroad employees. a larger passenger depot. and the probability of a new court house to cost S75e0O. There is con- siderable business done there. but the people have not begun to awaken to the vast possibili ties of the place. They should at once erect an up-to-date tourist hotel. It should have ample grounds around it and be planted with all kinds of tropical vegetation If atmosphere and one could send eonsignments of this Yuma winter air to the East. the inspiration of it's health-giving qualities would bring 25.OoO tourists every winter to the banks of the Colo rado River.
 Yuma needs only to make known it's climatic attractions in the parts of the East swept every year by blizzards and snowstorms to attract city full every winter The fertility of the val ley below will almost make itself known with out effort on the part of the people But with valley full of intelligent and industrious rural population, producing fruits and vegetables, poultry, eggs. fresh milk and fragrant butter, Yuma should be one of the most delightful winter resorts in all America There is every thing there to furnish tourists with. the most healthfnl and declicious food. and if the air in that region does not drive doctors to seek a living elsewhere. it will be because the people do not know how to live properly.
 The Laguna Dam will be completed in 1909, and ir ten years from today the attractions of Yuma as health resort and the fertility of these bottom lands will be so we'll known that it will require Sl,OO0 in cash to buy single acre of it.

Aged Pioneer Dead.
Chas. o. Brown, Who Came to this Country Before Arizona
 Was Organized, Passes Away.

A resident of this section for sixty-twO years, Charles O.. Brown passed away iD Tucson last evening at his residence No. 38 West Broadway. He was prob ably the best known of the early pioneers and enjoyed the distinc- tion among the Americans of having lived longest in this coun- try. His death was due to an abscess of the brain.
 Funeral services will be held over the remains at 3 o'clock to- morrow afternoon from the resi- dence.
 It was in 1846 that Mir. Brown came to Arizona. At that time Arizona and New Mexico were a patt of Mexico, the Gadsden treaty not having been negotia ted. Although but @ stripling, he had already seen much of frontier life, having left his home in Whitehall, Ill.,, to which the family had moved from New York when a boy of ]2.
 He was in the employ of the Mexican government and was sent to Fort Yuma in 1846 in company with Capt. Glanton. At that early time there was a con- siderable settlement at Yuma, and the town possessed an or ganized force of defenders and a stockade. Shortly after arriv- ing, MT. Brown, with Clanton, esta blished the first ferry across the river. Travel along the trail into California was in 1849-5O, and the ferry men prospered greatly. In 1850 there were rumors of an Indian Mir. Brown needed the warning and obtained per mission to go to San Diego. A short time after he left the Yu- mas and Cocopalis murdered | every white man in the settle ment save one, who chanced to ! be down the river. Of the funds
