Down on the lower levels there are little nips of frosty mornlugs 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.

RICHES OF SOIL WONDERFUL

Going through the country on the Arizona side Of the river, for several miles below Yuma, one encounters tke same type of country and soil that is found in the imperial Valley country around Brawleys CalexicO and other points west Of the river The fertility of the black prairie soils og ifh- nois has a. tonished people engaged in agri- culture for nearly one hundred years. The fertility of the valleys Of the Nile has been 8 matter of history for at least coco years. Those who are iamiiinr with Illinois prairie soil, and those who know what the valley Of the Nile is for agriculture. know that this lower Colorado River region surpasSes botB of tkeDl. fyOu ask farmer along this stretch Of country if the soil is six feet, his eyes Will open with astoniShment ai your ignorance. He will tell you no one knows whether it is | J0feet, COG or 6.C0O feet deep. It is practically without bottom. IL is so thoroughly well mixed with sand, disintegrated granite and other rocks that it never breaks. It is as easily worked as a heap Of ashes, and re- spends to cultivation in a way that is mar

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 ievel.@ The results are wonderful. Last week they were cutting a 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.
 h Cotton and tobacco grow wi the greatest iuxuriance, and this rich alluvial soil will be
 noted in very few years as the ideal spot in the whole country for dairying, hog raising,
 the production of poultry and vegetables, which
 ore heSitates to call early or late, as they will
 be perennial. New potatoes will be 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 apri- cots by the middle of the same month Chic kels and turkeys flourish there in the winter
 yirne beyond all experience nywhere else.
 The rainfall is exceedingly light and comes
 scly three or four times in whole winter.
 With an abundance Of green alfalsa and vegct-
