that it viii thrive only in those two
regions and the Salt River valley.
Mr.. Strickland has eighty acres in
cotton and he estimates that his crop
viii net him $4,000 this year. 1t has
been found that the freight rate from
Phoenix to Boston, the principal cot
ton market is S1.25 per hundred
pounds.
a great mistake in cotton growing
by irrigation. said Mr.. Strickland is in
giving the crop too much water. If it
is too well irrigated and too inten-
siyely cultivated it runs to stalk at
the expense of bolls. \ part of his
crop has been irrigated but once. 1t
has all been cultivated once and a
small part of it twice. 1t may be
added that the crop of eighty acres
has 50 far been cared for by one man.
The other members Of the associa-
ton are c. G. Deming, William FitZ-
patrick and James Il. Biddlecomb- Mr..
Strickland said that in a year or two
cotton growing in the valley would not
be confined to the Arlington country.
Professor Clothier of the University of
Arizona will shortly conduct an IN
vestigation of the soil in the Glendale
region with reference to its suitability
for cotton growing.

DEATH OF SMALL CHILD.

At an early hour yesterday morning
Frankie the six year-old son of Mr..
and Mrs. Fred c. Weekes, died at the
home of his parents from brain fever,
which was brought on by ptomaine
poisoning from which the little fellow
has been sufferer for several days
past.
on Wednesday last. a physician
was summoned to attend the child,
and found him seriously i'll, and as
the child grew steadily worse con-
sultation was held the following day,
but although all that medical science
could do for the little fellow was re-
sorted to, he succumbed to the dis
ease yesterday morning. The parents
have the sympathy of the community
in their sad bereavement.
The funeral will take place today
from the residence, where burial SER
vices win be held, and interment made
in the Mesa cemetery.

1t has been conclusively proven at
the establishment of LeSueur & Glib

being employed, and the first amount
of money taken in on that day being
thirteen dollars. Since the commence

GINS HAVE BEEN ORDERED
FOR ARLINGTON COTTON
The Picking of the Textile Will Begin
the Middle of Next Month.

The cotton growing in the Arlington
country is past the experimental stage.
The half dozen farmers who are en-
gagged in it have organized themselves
into The Egyptian Cotton Growers as
sociation and are preparing to go into
the business more extensively than
ever next year.
President w L. Strickland of the
association was in town yesterday and
ordered two gins, one for the short
saple cotton and the other for the long
staple. The picking of the cotton will
be begun about September 10 and may
be continued as late as the middle of
next April, thing not possible any
where else in the United States.
1t is easy at this stage of the growth
of the cotton to estimate the amount
of the crop. This is done by counting
the bOlls on stalk and it is easy to
find the number of stalks in an acre.
