Tn addition to this list there have been numberless small houses erected. such as portables. tent houses and shacks. probably enough of these to shelter as many. perhaps more than 1 iWili be housed in these more preten- tious structures.
 : So much for the city proper. within 1 the corporation lines. IL is fact patent to every observer who knows where the corporation lines run. that there k a great deal Of building going on in the unincorporated additions to i the city also. .lThe most notable in stance is Evergreen Place. where there | are six or eight houses under construc- tion. ranging in value from S250O to $6000. All the outlying additions have ! been improved by from one to a dog en houses of some kind or value and though outside the corporation. they are as much part of the community : as any of it.

 able building on the ranches still fur | ther out. The country has. .kept full ipacc with the city in improvements ] and there are many new farm houses. some of them ver, nice ones. The material and the skilled labor prac- ticaily an came from Phoenix.
 ! Attention is also called to the fact ! that no mention has been made here ! of the Noble building. which will cost considerably over S200.00O. and which was undertaken earlier in the season. and there have also been many good houses built during the preceding

 sixty days while the Normal contract will be let very shortly And over near Florence. which is in the next county, but still in the Arizona agri- cultural prosperity belt, there will be
 new prison building next wear to cost perhaps s150.OO0. more or less"
 Altogether it doesn't look much like
 hard times in this port and if this is
 what goes for a panic in the Salt river valley. there ought to be some system devised to keep it here always Phoe-
 nix never was really SO prosperous as since the panic began to get in it's
 work.
