 tions existed and in almost any othe
 part of the country they would hay,
 prevented the land from ever bein,
 put in cultivation. but here was
 remedy for every existing difficulty
 There was an abundance of water anC l silt from the Gila and Agua Fria riv.
 CTS to wash out and cover up the salty
 spots and an abundance of water fOl
 irrigation at all seasons of the year
 and instead of using a scraper to leve
 the land for irrigation most all of that
 work was done by the application of
 water when it was not needed for oth-
 CT purposes. Is there any one who can
 beat Mir. Carters' deal? In a few | words here is what he has done, got his land from the government five years ago. Most of it now in alfalfa
 and every acre that is in is in good
 shape and is worth s75 per acre.

 Geo. Drew and John Crouch and l families are talking of taking a trip to the mountains in the near future. Bob Cannon is changing the looks | of that portion of the earth's surface ] that comprises the David B. Harer and J. B. Shrum ranches that he recently purchased.
 Some copies of a petition to the gov ernment authorities in charge were sent here some time ago for people to sign, asking that a certain portion of the country draining into the Agua Fria be included in a national forest reserve, and setting forth that the shutting off of grazing would greatly reduce the amount of silt which now flows into the Buckeye canal from that source. We don't think there is a farmer here that believes anything of the kind. The Agua Fria river is usually dry as every body knows and affords very little water in proportion to what the Salt and Gila rivers do. It IS an cave trough for a very small scope of country, but at the same time there are quite a number of men who have cattle on the river and ad- Jacent range who would be materially damaged if they were shut off from grazing this country where they have had' their cattle located for years. adn in most instances the cattlemen have established their homes within short distance Of their cattle ranges. This petition was considered by most of our farmers as an attempt on the part of someone to fill the people here with hot air" and put them in a position sometime in the future to be able to tell our farmers see, what I did for you, l helped you shut those cattlemen off the Agua Fria river" and that is all on earth it could ever amount to. 1 other than injure the cattlemen and 1 furnish little fuel for some hot air | merchant.
