To Raise Tobacco
In Arizona

verdi Kentucky farmers are de- sirous Of coming to AuzoDa for the purpose of parmenting in the rsis- ing of tobacco They have heard about the climate, soil and methods of irrigation here and think that to- 5acco equal to that raised in the blue grass region of Kentucky can be raised m this section, according to letter from man who spent last winter here.
 II these men come, snd succeed in theii attempt Co grow tobacco in Ari- zona, il will mean a great deal of money and prosperity to the people of the entire territory. This can be proved by the result of tobacco grow ing in Kentucky. In that state the land will produce from four to five thousand pounds to the acre and this. selling at l5 cents pound, means OmethIng like S7O0 per acre, while the cost of production Is about S20O making profit of 800 or $500 to the acre.
 As the climate in Arizona is much drier than that in Kentucky, tobacco raised here can be dried in the open with but very little protection. For this reason. and on account of the fact that labor is available here, the cost of production should be very much less. With such enormous profits crop of tobacco can be raised on ten acres of land and pay for an immense trsc. here several times over the first year.
