Phoenix people if they will agree TO
build houses on it for a summer col
Ony. Mr. Walker says the project
appeals to him as one designed to be
fine thing for both cities The
terms Of the offer are decidedly lib

of valley people take advantage of the
offer il will mean the keeping or a
hundred thousand dollars in the ter
ritory annually that otherwise would
be spent in California or elsewhere.
Mr. Walker SAYS the terms are just

reach the city to do his shopping and

underbrush and is covered with n
fine growth of young pines. furnish

the Prescott people Phoenix can secure
a fine little summer home and weld

people will be down on an excursion
next Friday and Mr. Walker will be
one of the boosters for their game.

is less inviting than it used to be.
Lots of gold is still produced but it
