Why Los Angeles Loves
Arizona

The Los Angeles News says:
The desert is pouring its human
tide into Los Angeles from Ne
vada, Arizona and California
points. Where one locality of
the heated zone sends one person
to Los Angeles for the summer,
Arizona sends at least twenty
people, and Los Angeles is
mighty glad to see them. Every
body here has the glad hand out
for Arizona. We like the peo-
pie from over there, and frankly,
we like their dollars. They have
lots of dollars and they are not
reluctant to spend them. Every
body here has the glad hand out
for Arizona. Sometimes we
think Arizonans aae the best
spenders in the world. It isn't
the come easy, go easy. kind of
money with them, but neither is
it the stingy, tightwad kind. It
is the sort of money that is
cared in big, clean way, and it
is spent in joy and comfort. An
Arizonan doesn't throw hismoney
away, but neither does he hold
ON to- dollar until the. eagle
dies of old age, His dollar is
honestly earned, but still it did
not come with the sweat-shop
effort.
Arizona's dollars come from
three sources. They come first
from the mines, next from Agri
culture, and last from commerce.
Everybody in business in ArizO-
ma averages high. It is re-
markable fact, while the worlds
average of mining companies
which make good is only one out
of every hundred, in Arizona one
out of every twenty eight min
ing companies organized in the
whole territory have developed
iuto dividend payers. It is said
that in the great Warren dis
trict in which Bisbee is located
one company out of every SIX
organized companies has deliv-
cred the goods. OF course, thous-
ands of prospectors spend years
in the search for valuable metals |
in Arizona, just as they do else
where in the world, but we do |
believe there are fewer disap-
pointed prospectors in Arizona
than in other great mining zone /
in the United States. We also /
believe that there is still more
unexplored mining country in
Arizona than in any other state
in the union.
There is something vital and
clean about the money which
one takes from the earth, wheth
er it comes forth in the gold of
,he mines or in the emerald in
;he alfalfa fields. This living
Joy of money from the earth is
recognized by the men who take
t out, and money has for them
value more real than perhaps
or any other class of people
who labor that they may live.
Money taken from the earth
obs no one, but adds to- the |
wealth. The man who ,
actually produces something

TIMELY HINTS
FOR FARMERS.
A Lesson In Intensive Farming by
K II. Forbes, Director and
Chemist of Agricultural
Experiment Station
University Of Arizona,
Ian 1o,,,, IL lfArT

University Of Arizona,
JANUARY 10, 1907.
| Just west Of Yuma, Arizona, In the alluvial
floOd-piain Of the Colorado, lies 81 little farm
OF ~ acres which on May /, 1905, was virgin
| bottomland, covered with saltwced, arrow
brush and creOsote bushes. The original
purpose OF the tract was for planting selected
varieties of date palms imported by the u. $.
department of Agriculture from the Old
World. The Experiment station, May 2. be-
gan preparing the ground, and on May 20 the
work of levelling, bordering and irrigatng
the tract and the planting OF l52 palms, was
completed.
TIE PLAN OF WORK.
RECOGNIZING, however, that a farmer with
| his living to make meantime, cannot afford
to wait for an orchard to come into bearing
1t was planned to plant crops for quick re-
turns between the trce-rows thus putting the
work on a feasible basis from the small farm
er's point of view. In order to ecOnonize
ground the irrigating borders were SO placed
as TO coincide with the rows OF palms, thus
utilizing space otherwise usually wasted.
The tract was divided by the borders into
lands, for the most part oie-half an acre In
size. lrrigating wafer from the Colorado
Valley p. q ]. Canal was obtained in the cus-
tOmary manner, and f. l.. Crane, himself a
Yuma Valley farmer, undertook the care of
what was nicknanled our ''play farln."
In size, as we'll as in the intensive character
of the work planned, this farm" is the Op-
pOsite of the average holdings Of this locality.
The prevailing crops of the regiolrare alfalfa,
corn, barley and fOrRgeS III general, cOnpar:l-
lively little attention being given to vege-
tables and fruits. Withal, the cost of dwelling
land in this region is high, rarely falling be-
low twent ty dollars an acre at current prices
for labor and teams. Moreover, the cost ex-
elusive of maintenance, of the Government
irrfgating system now under construction
will be about $50 an acre annually for ten
years. To meet these and other heavy items
of expense in connection with the esta abliSh-
nlent of farm in this region, intensive crops
of more reinunerative character than those
now in vogue, are essential. 1t was partly,
therefore, as an object lesson bearing upon
these financial aspects OF the general situn-
ton, that this cultural work was planned.

RECLAMATION OF THE GROUND.

The soil of our tract, a warm, sandy loan
well adapted to gardening operations, was
levelled, ditched and bOrdered at contract
price OF Sl7.20 an acre, considerably less than
the average for the locality, reckoning the
labor OF men and teams AT current rates. In
addition, barbed wire and posts for fencing
cost St0.lG; lumber fol- headgates cost 83g.57;
a drive we'll point and pipe. a pitcher-spOut
pump and barrel, Sl345; small lumber
two-room house. including five and one, half
shelter for horses, about $500. Only Skilled
labor employed in levellipg, bordering and
ditching the ground, and for part cOnstruc-
ton of the house, is included in the 3boye
estimates, as the common laDoy required or
dinariiy would be, and In this case was, fur
nished by the farmer himself.
To bring this ground under cultivation and
make it habltabe for a sIu3ll farmer and his
family, as stated above, therefore required n
cash outlay of about StC0.00. In addition, in
the average instance must be Included a,
team, wagon. plow, harrow, haying equip
ment ShOvels hoes and other snail tools.

The Burlington is considering the plan
Of improving its line from Holdrege TO

from Omaha to connect with the Northern
Pacific at Billings. The line fas been
built for twaa.y years and mas a splendid
low grade all t1e way from Holdrege west
ara would make 4 good read for heavy

According 70 the present plan the Bur-

use tho Northwestern rails west TO Sho-
shoni, where the new line from Kirby
south through the Big Horn Basin will be
met,
Pursuant to this plan the Burlington has
been buying lane in Cheyenne 10 make a
connection between the Burlington and
Colorado and southern. Land within the
heart Of Cheyenne has been bought at a
considerable expense.
BY using the HoIdreGo-Cheyenne line,
the Burlington would have a route 54l

while the Union Pacific is but a little
shorter, with 500 miles. The Burlington has
been making every effort 10 establish a

Thousands upon thousands of
People-young, middle aged and
old-are suffering from some
one or more of the symptoms produced
by some stage of the malady known
as "~iat-foot," or broken-down arch, as
1t is frequently called.
The early stages of "fat-foot" are
usually the most painful. At this time
very little, IL any deformity or change
in the foot's outline can be observed,
consequently the pains are attributed
to other causes-frequently to rheum-
atism. The rheumatic-like pains may
be in the feet, calves Of legs, knees,
hips, back, and sometimes there is a
dull pain in back of the neck.
Other symptoms are swollen, painful
toes, enlarged great toe joints, pain in
the heel, bunions, cramps in the feet,
toes drawn up or down, weak ankles
and a generally "used-up" feeling at
the end of the day.
Come to our store and let us demon

but the Burlington expects In time to build
q line of its own across that section OF
Wyoming, and will use the Northwestern
as a temporary expedient.
Work has begun on the Burlington line
from Kirby south through the Big Horn
Gorge, but this is going to be a most
difficult piece of work, as the road will
have TO build so that II can run over the
top of the Boysen dam. 1t will be a most
picturesque route, as the walls of the can
yon rise perpendicularly about 900 feet.
Low Rates for the Fall.
Omaha now stands a good chance to get
low rates to the fall festival Of King Ak
Sar-Ben and for the National Corn ex-
position. The Burlington has made the
first move in this direction by announce
Ing that 1t will give reduced rate. to the
Nebraska State fair, which will be held
at Lincoln September 8 to l6. The rate
will be a fare and a half, with a minimum
OF 81.
Application was made some time ago for
these rates, but several roads opposed the
proposition. The Burlington has now taken
Independent action and has announced that
1t will make the rate. This action has met
with the approval OF the secretary of the
Western Passenger association.
Ak-Sar-Ben and the corn show directors
have not asked for rates up to date.
Later Burlington Train.
The Burlington announces that II has
arranged TO run it's train from Nebraska
City two hours later than formerly to ac-
commodate those desiring to go to Ne
braska City in the morning and return in
the evening.
