my little son, boy Of five, broke
out with an itching rash. Three doc
tors prescribed for him, but he kept
getting worse until we could not dress
him any more. They finally advised
me to try a certain medical college,
but it's treatment did no good. At
the time I was induced to try Cuti-
cura he was so bad that had to cut
his hair Off and put the Cuticura Oint-
ment on him on bandages, as it was
impossible to touch him with the bare
hand. There was not one square inch
Of skin on his whole body that was
not affected. He was one mass of
sores. The bandages used to stick to
his skin and in removing them it used
to take the skin off with them, and
the screams from the poor child were
neartbreaking., began to think that
he would never get well, but after the
second application of Cuticura Oint-
ment / began to see signs of improve
ment, and with the third and fourth
applications the sores commenced to
dry up. His skin peeled off twenty
times, but it finally yielded to the
treatment. Now 1 can say that he is
entirely cured, and stronger and
healthier boy you never saw than he

the cure was effected Robert Wattam

Few persons who travel across the SOUTH
west realize that in Arizona and New Mexlco
there are enormous forests OF valuable tlno0i
and that the numbering is an important lnous-
try. In both territories there are several larse
forest reservations and one OF these III All
zona the Coconino forest, with nearly o,ooV
square miles, is the largest single reserve IN
the United States. The total forest area re-
served in Arizona is Is, 250,130 acres, or more
than $4,000 square miles, and in New Mexico
there are 1871 I'll acres, or more than II,ooo
square miles. Southern California also has
several large reserves.
The Coconino forest in Arizona occupies
part of the great plateau in which the Grand
Canyon is cut, and extends to the brink of the
canyon.
The visitor to the southwest usually takes
keen interest in the Indians, who are numer-
Gus not only along the main lines of travel,
but in many remote villages. Some tribes,
notably the Apaches, who continued to be
troublesome until a relatively recent date,
have become famous for the misdeeds that ma
terially retarded the development of Arizona
and western New Mexico. Now, however, all
is peace and tranquility. The newspapers, es-
pecially eastern ones, occasionally print &C
counts of uprisings, but these prove to be local
Quarrels with few individuals.
The Indians of the southwest are of two
kinds. differing greatly in most of their char
acteristics. One is the nomad type, represent
ed by the Apaches. Navajos, the Yumas, Pa
pagoes and Pimas, and smaller tribes; the
other is the pueblo type, which is comprised
of 26 pueblos, or villages, scattered through
central and western New Mexico, and in the
Hopi reserve, in northwestern Arizona.
Probably there is greater popular interest
in the pueblo people, for their settlements

SANDY region without vegetation or inhabi-
Ianls, Is detective ard the idea that 1t is nee
esSaihy nat is erroneous. Most portions OF
the average desert bear extensive, though
somewhat widely spaced, flora. Many desert
regions contain numerous settlements, the Sa-
nara desert for instance having population
Oh z'oOO,000. Loose sand is a minor feature,
ana much more prevalent on the seacoasts and
along the bottom lands of rivers There are
"lde areas OF bare rocks, and the larger des-
erts include mountains ridges, mesas and deep
canyons
The deserts of the southwest are regions
OF very scanty rainfall, parts of them having
only three inches year and evaporation Of
eighty inches or more.
This canyon is the mile-deep gorge cut by
the Colorado river across the high plateau of
northern Arizona. The view from the rim
reveals the most stupendous panorama imag-
lnable for one sees into an area of about 600
square miles filled with endless variety of
most rugged topographic forms Of many beau
tiful colors On the skyline ten to fifteen
miles away, is the edge of wide-reaching pla-
teau, and in the middle ground of the picture
flows the Colorado river, nearly mile below
ones feet
The features are so gigantic and so plainly
In view that all sense of scale is lost, and it is
not until one has been down to the bottom of
the canyon at the river level that any adequate
sense of proportion can be gained.
The canyon was discovered by Cardenas,
VINO went to its edge In 1910 on branch trip
from Coronado's expedition, on information OBJ
tanned by Tovar from the Hopi Indians. The
original name given to the river was Tison,
Spanish for irebrand, and it is to be regretted
that the name has not been retained to avoid
the present confusion due to the river having
the same name as the state

me southwest presents a variety of topo-
graphic features, and many of it's economic
resources are closely related to them. There
is great range in altitude with corresponding
variation in climatic conditions. One of the
most salient features is the wide high plateau
or northern Arizona, which reaches an ati-
tude Of 5000 feet 1t is surmounted by vari-
Gus volcanic peaks, notably San Francisco
peak which is 1851 feet above sea level
To the east this district merges into an
irregular series of high plateaus. constituting
the western half of New Mexico
To the west and south it drops by huge
steps into the great region of desert valleys
or BLOSSOMS of Nevada. western Arizona. and
southeastern California. These deserts are
wide, long plains, lying between mountain
ridges of varying lengths and heights, ridges
which are all very rocky and mostly treeless
and trend north and south.
Diagonally across southern California there
extends the long curving ridge of the Sierra
Madre and San Bernardino mountains be-
tween which and the ocean lies the large oval
area known as the valley of southern CaIifor-
mia. This valley Is the great citrus fruit dis

There are two great rivers in the south
west the Colorado and the Rio Grande. The
Colorado river has been compared to the Nile
and the similarity is notable. Roth are
streams of the first rank. rising in high noun
tains, and finally crossing broad region of
semi-tropical, nearly rainless deserts Both
empty into seas in nearly the same latitude,
and their lower courses are through wide del
tas of fertile soil. The annual overfows add
new sediments fertile with plant food and at
q time favorable for the crops.
The agricultural capabilities are closely
similar, but while much of the lower Nile val
ley is utilized the Colorado valley Is just be-
ginning to be settled. The watershed area of
