POSSIBILITIES OF PARKER
(Continued from Page One)

First-That the more than 20o.00e acres adjacent is the largest tract of undeveloped agricultural land that can be found today in the United States if not in the world. The land Is rich and fertile. and the climate is such that produce of whatever character is certain to have marketable advantages that will largely defy competition.
 Second-The Colorado river flows by all of this land and is sufficient to irrigatc a tract an hundred fold larger. The electric power that can be gener- ated from the water of this river is simply enormous.
 Third-The mineral that exists and is proven in the mountains that cir cumscribe this valley will not be de- vel0ped for the next one hundred years. Biologists and mining engi- neers of national and international re- pUte declare that such copper gold in dication for the making of enormous mines as are observed here cannot be equaled anywhere.
 Fourth-Upon the completion of the Arizona and California railroad it does not require a railroad man to tell what it means. It will be the iong- est stretch of even grade line in the southwest. If it is not constructed to handle perishable freight at a mini mum cost. then what is it built for?

When a person looks at the Sl,000,00l steel bridge that spans the river. he surely will readily conceive that it was never intended as a foot crossing.
 Needles. with only a railroad, has a population of over 4.000; Prescott with mining as her chief industry, has over 5000: Phoenix. with agriculture, has about 2O.00O. Parker has all of the above. though undeveloped. Is there any one so blind that he can't see that her future possibilities are almost limitlesS? When the railroad is completed, when the government be- gins the reclamation of this desert tract. then Parker real estate will be worth more per front foot than one or a dozen acres are now.
 Sundays Baseball Game.
 The game last Sunday was not de void of some good plays. but on the whole was pretty bum. The Indians took the lead and after the first in ming steadily increased the score to the end of the eighth. when they had 21 runs to 14 for the Savages. In the ninth the Indians led off and were quickly retired without a run. The Savages went in with strong hopes. mixed with an abundance of doubt The Indians lost spirit, or the Say ages met with a whole lot of luck or something; at any rate, they squeezed out seven runs. making a tie. The Indians were pretty mad over the turn of affairs and, after trying their half of the 'play-off,' quit the game Thereupon the umpire decided the game in favor of the Savages. which makes four games now for them in succession.
