VALLEY LANDS MAY BE WORTH
 slOO AN ACRE
Farmers Have Started to Flow for Coming Season-~lrri- gation Will Make the Coun- tfy Fine Crop Producer

D0UGLAS. Jan. -(Special)-
 A gentleman who came down through the Sulphur Springs valley yesterday stated that the farmers are ali busy now blowing their land and putting 1t in condition for holding the moisture aud for receiving the seed at planting time The recent snows and rain has encouraged the farmers to hope that the next season will be a good one for the agricultural indus try. In the vicinity of Wilcox per haps more work is now being done than in any other section of the val ley. During the past two years hun dreds of homestead settlers have To- cated around willcox and last year some important crops were produced. the melon crop being especially eX- cellent and heavy.
 The crops of the past season were the largest ever produced in the val ley. hundreds of acres of new land being planted for the first time The principal crops were sorghum. kaffir corn and other forage crops.
 The Heffern Mining company culti- vated few acres less than hun dred last year and the crops produc- ed yielded a net profit of more than three thousand dollars. James Bro phy. of Bisbee. planted about one hundred acres. blowing deep with railroad grading plow. pulled by six horses. The result of his crop was highly gratifying, the crops amount ing to more than half what could be expected in any country under the most favorable circumstances. Many of the farmers produced good crops last year. not large. but sufficient to demonstrate that with such a favor able season the agricultural industry can se made profitable.
 The future possibilities Of the agri- cultural industry in the Sulphur Springs valley. in the opinion Of those best acquainted with the soil and its requirements, must depend on pump ing water which is known 10 be abun- dant below the surface besides the pumping for irrigation the day win come when reservoirs viii be provid- ed 70 eaten and hold the immense amount of water that now comes down 10 the valley through the great canyons of the Chiricahuas and pass ,.- ,-,-...,l ff.
 Every acre Of fertile land in the Sulphur Springs valley can afford to pay $40 for a water supply for irriga- -tion and pay a reasonble price for the water annually thereafter. With water suppIy~the land win be worth $1eo per acre, perhaps not every acre. but the greater part of it would be worth that amount and some of it command even more than that
 When this development of water has been accomplished the Sulphur Springs valley will become one of the important producers Of profitable crops. Until this is accomplished farming will be an uncertain calling depending for success on the rainfall
 which is an uncertain proposition il this section of the country. Success
 fui pumping is doubtful now and vii
 be until such time as cheaper fue
 can be provided.
