There is more catarrh in this sec tion of the country than all other d. seases put together, and until the last fe wyears was supposed to be in- curable. For a great many years doc tors pronounced it local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by con- stantly failing to cure with local treat ments, pronounced it incurable. But science has now pronounced it to be a constitutional disease and therefore it requires constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the markete. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teeaspoonful.

! 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 a busy, up-to-date town. The more
 modern improvements consist of several blocks
 of attractive brick buildings. three-story post
 office building, also of brick, and many other
 nice structures. Among some of the greater
 improvements which are being made, are 8 s35, 900 school building, S75,00o ice plant, 8 fine clubhouse for the railroad employees, a larger passenger depot, and the probability of 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 transportable like mineral waters, and one could send consignments Of this Yuma winter air to the East, the inspiration of it's health giving qualities would bring 25.OOO tourists every winter to the banks of the Colo rado River.
 Yuma needs only to make known it's climatic attractions in the parts of the East swept every year by bliZZ3rdS and snowStormS to attract a city full every winter. The fertility of the val ley below will almost make itself known with out effort on the part of the people, But with a 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 healthfnl and decliciouS food. and if the air in that region does not drive doctors to seek a living elsewhere. it will be because the people do not know how to live properly.
 The Laguna Dam will be completed in 1909, and ir ten years from today the attractions of Yuma as a health resort and the fertility of these bottom lands will be so well known that 1t will require Sl 900 in cash to buy single acre of It.

RICHES OF SOIL WONDERFUL

But the object of this story Is to call atten. tfon once more, and for perhaps the thou sandth time, to the riches Of the soil along the Colorado on both sides, incident to the depoSitidg of this mass of debris during all the past ages. Going through the country 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 Brawley, Calexico and other poin ts west of the river The fertility of the black prairie soils or nli- nois has astonished people engaged in agri- culture for nearly one hundred years. The fertility of the valleys of the Nile has be4n a matter of history for at least 6OO0years. Those who are familinr 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 both of them
 If you ask farmer along this stretch of eoun try if the soil Is six feet, his eyes will open with astonishnlent al your ignorance. He will tell you no one knows whether it is 50 feet 800 or 5000 feet deep. It lis practically without bottom. It 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 way that is mar velous.

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 are 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 cnly months when the crop is not cut here are December and January
 Cotton and tobacco grow wi the greatest luxuriance, and this rich alIuvial soil will be noted in very few years as the ideal srot 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 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 kens and turkeys flourish there in the winter time beyond all experience anywhere else.
 The rainfall is exceedingly light and comes only three or four times in whole winter. With an abundance of green alfalfa and veget- able the dry and not overheated climate prevailing in the winter months, chickens are free from the disease that make their raising difficult elsewhere. There is no spot in South ern Illinois or Missouri so adapted to the pro- duction of corn as this valley along the Cobra do River With alfalfa and corn, tue butter, cheese, eggs, poultry and pork to be raised on twenty acre farm will amaze those who have the experience in America agricultural affairs
 The winter climate around Yuma is a thing so intoxicatingly salubrious That no words can describe it. Those deserts of America, as We have regarded them heretofore, seem to defy the Ills tnat human nature elsewhere is 50 prone to contract and suffer from The atmos phere is as dry Gs punk, the skies cloudlessiy oiear. the air mild as possible and every breath seems ts be an inspiration Of new life
