The United States has an experiment farm on | the mesa just on the outskirts of Yuma. Here ults even more marvellous than in the valley
 are produced. Down on the lower levels there
 are little nips of frosty mornings occasionally
 during December and January, but on the mesa
 the breath Of frost never touches the most del
 icate vegetation. Oranges grown at the Feder-
 al experiment station are unsurpassed in their
 delicious quality.
 Yuma is busy, up to date town The more
 modern improvements consist of several blocks
 of attractive brick buildings. threestory post office building, also of brick, and many other
 nice structures. Among some of the greater
 Improvements which arc being made, are s35, ,OOO school building, s75.Coo ice plant, fine clubhouse for the railroad employees, a larger passenger depot. and the probability of a new court house to cost $75, 900. There is con- siderable business done there. but the people have not begun to awaken to the vast poSSibili ties of the place. They should at once erect an up-to-date tourist hotel. It should have ample grounds around it and be planted with all kinds of tropical vegetation If atmosphere were only transportablc like mineral waters, and one could send cOnSignments Of this Yuma winter air to the East, the inspiration of it's hcalth giving qualities would bring 25.UOO tourists every winter to the banks of the Colo Tado River.
 Yuma needs only to make known it's climatic attractions in the parts of the East swept every year by blZZ rdS and snOwStormS to attract city full every winter. The fertility of the val ley below will almost make itself known with out effort OH the part of the people But with valley full Of intelligent and industrious rural population. producing fruits and vegetables, poultry, eggs. fresh milk and fragrant butter, yuma should be one of the most delightful winter resorts in all America. There is every thing there to furnish tourists with the most heathfnl and decliciOuS food. and if the air in that region does not drive doctors to seek q living elsewhere. it will be because the people do not know how to live properly.
 The L2guna Dam will be completed Tn 1909, and in ten years from today the attractions of | una as health resort and the fertility of these bottom lands will be so well known that t will require Si,000 in cash to buy single Icre of 1t.

CUT SEVEN CROPS YEARLY.

Arizona has established an experiment station in the heart Of this big valley, which is some twenty-four miles long, and in spots ten to twelve miles wide, down on the lower level. The results arc wonderful. Last week they were cutting crop of alfalfa on this ex- perimental farm, and for seven consecutive months they will cut succeeding crops. The only months when the crop IS not cut here are December and January.
 Cotton and tobacco grow wi the greatest luxuriahce, and this rich alluvial soil will be noted in a very few years as the ideal spot in the whole country for dairying, hog raising, the production of poultry and vegetables which one hesitateS to call early or late, as they will be perennial New potatoes will Le produced in the middle of January tomatoes will be ripe by the first Of March, ripe grapes will be gathered in the early days of May, and april cots by the middle of the sane month Chic hens and turkeys flourish there in the winter time beyond ali experience anywhere else,

RICHES OF SOIL WONDERFUL

But the object Of this story is to call atteD- ton once more, and for perhaps the thou- sandth time, to the riches of tlIe soil along the Colorado on both sides, incident to the depositiGg of this mass of debris during all the past ages Going tbrorgh the coHutry on the Arizona side of the river, for several miles below Yuma, one encounters the same type Of country and soil that is found in the Imperial Valley country around Brawlcy, Calexico and other points west or the river The fertility Of the black prairie soils of Illi- nOis has a. 'oDished people engaged in agri- culture for nearly one hundred years. Tbe fertility Of the valleys Of the Nile has been a matter of history for at least 500 years. Those who are famlinr with Illinois prairie soil, and those who know what the valley Of the Nile is for agriculture khow that this lower Colorado River region surpaSses botb of them.
 If you ask a farmer along this stretch o8 country if the soil is six feet, bis eyes w3p open with astOnishment ai your ignoTauce. He will tell you no one knows whether il is 60 feet, 600 or 6,CN0 feet deep Ii is practically without bottom. If is s0 thoroughly we'll mixed with sand, disintegrated granite and other rocks that it never breaks. It is as easily worked as a heap of sslIes, and re- spends to cultivation in a way that Is DlaY- VelOuS.

ONCE A MIGHTY STREAM.

Ages ago when the mountain ranges of Arizona and California lowered toward the stars, at least twice as high as they do now, rains were very frcduent and came down in torrcntial volumes all along these mountain ridges. The Colorado River in these past ages was a mighty stream, sweeping down debris In tons every second of it's flow. The Cobra do sink was at that time great inland sea, which spread over the country on both sides Of where the river now runs As the erosion of winds and storms, landslides and glaciers wore down the mountain ridges year by year. the great river carried down a vast amount Of silt, erosion from the rocks full Of phos. phntes, times and dIsintcrgrated granites, as well as the vegetation along its banks; and this was all deposited in what are now the sinks Of the Colorado.
 As the mountain tops were worn down, the Pains became less frequent and less in volume but the erosion Of rocks and river banks, the trees and vegetable mould torn from the banks still came down and settled into tho bottom of the great inland lake. This geogicaI process went on from age tu age tO our time, leaving the Colorado at Yuma q stream about half mile wide and being at the present time about twenty feet deep ia the deepest portion.
 It is not necessary to remind Cailfornians that the Spanish missionaries and explorers called this river the Colorado because. of the reddish color Of it's waters. It Is the Colorado up in the Grand Canyon in Arizona and down past The Needles. iSut at this time or the year, after passing the mouth Of the Gila, instead Of the red river it becomes the brown river. 1t actually looks today as IT ten per cent of its flow was silt and only ninety per cent water.

POSSIBILITIES OF YUMA

 SdIubriOuS
BY GEORGE N. BU RTON. In los Angeles Times.

It is very far from a semi-mllenium since
 three little open boats under the flag of Spain
 fl irSt touched the waters of the western hemi. sphere and revealed the new world to the eyes Of Europeans. Ii is only q little over a century since the United States of America sprang, so to speak, like fallas Atheue from the brain Of love, a completely armed ad- ditiOn to the family Of nations. Ii is but
 little yer half century since California be-
 came part or these United States of America,
 and less than generation since the settle
 mcnt of the Great South west began.
 In all the l2j years since the Republic was
 founded also in the half century since Cali
 fprnia became one of the States Of the URion
 and during every year of the last thirty, a re- alZation Of the vast riches Of the American continent, of the territory of the United States and of this Great Southwest has been more and more astonishing to the minds of men. One would suppose that by today we knew pretty thoroughly what the undevclop- ed resources of the Great Southwest might reasonably he expected to become. We have not reached the depths Of this great ocean of wealth with our plummet line yet.
 In a residence of forty years on the Coast the writer thought he knew a little about what there IS on the Coast, and as most of these years have been spent in and around Los Angeles. he naturally had little con ceit that he was pretty well acquainted with the Great Southwest Last week trip to the Colorado ltvcr bottoms. below Yuma made hIm feel as a tenderroot who had come in on the last train. New to him, this wonderful region and it's possibilities are pretty well known to a great many readers of The Times by the stories published, if not by the demon stration of their own eyes.
 Yuma lies on the map just twelve miles from where the government Is putting in the great Laguna dam, at the confluence of the Gila and Colorado Rivers. It is twelve miles from Yuma down the river to the Mexican line on the Arizona side of the river At one point, Just below Yuma. the intena- tional bOundry line runs up along the river which there takes a westerly trend and from Yuma to Mexico Is only few miles.

GOV. WARNER SEES End
OF PRIzf-FICHT GAME

THE last great prize fight has been
fought in my opinion" said Gov.
Warner when I'm Detroit this week.
"The brutal contest at Reno between
the black stevedore and the white
boilermaker has sealed the doom of
the ring contest between humans.
There were only one or two states so
backward as TO allow this Jeffrics-
Johnson fight and the commng cleo
tionss will bring the better element to
the top even i'm Nevada, / think.
This fight was particularly pitiful
and disgusting. That fifteenth round
was a horror. Can you imagine any
thing more brutal? Is the sport it
self gentleman's pastime when one
of the contestants refuses even to go
through the formality of shaking
hands with his opponent? Doesn't that
indicate the depth of hatred. scorn and
vile passion which actuate the So
called sportsmen?
Prize fights create a maudlin senti-
ment. particularly among the youth.

a professional pugilist when he reads
