ARIZONA SUMMER RESORTS.

Five million dollars, it is estimated,
are taken out of Arizona every sum-
mer by people who go away for all
or a portion of what is popularity and
enormously termed ''the heated sea-
son." But Arizona is going to have
her own summer resorts and stop
this drain, at least in great measure.
The trend is Enthusiastically in that di-
rection, says the Arizona Magazine.
And why not? Within the confines
of Arizona are the most magnificent
pine forests in the world, mountains
that cannot be equaled in grandeur
by those of Switzerland and Colorado,
and everything for which Arizonans
go away.
favorite place to spend the summers,
and the habit is growing. Iron
Springs, a few miles south of Pres
colt, is a little city composed exclu-
sively of summer cottages built and
owned by Phoenix people who occu-
py them two or three months of the
year. On the outskirts of Prescott
is Idylwild, the most beautiful place
imaginable for summer home Great
pines, springs, ferns, wild flowers
and plants of all kinds combine to
make this one of natures beauty
spots. In addition to the beauties of
nature, one here enjoys all the com
forts of city life.
Another tract adjacent to Prescott
is Colony tract, which is being given
away free by the Prescott Chamber
of Commerce to people who will build
summer cottages. Several cottage:
have been completed, more are In
course of construction and number
of Phoenicians have made their plans
for homes in Colony tract.
Flagstaff itself is a resort to which
scores of southern Arizona people
flock every summer. Beautiful Oak
Creek, where the finest trout fishing
in the world is to be had, is only a
few miles south. Nothing is more
delightful than a summer camping
trip in the White mountains of north
eastern Arizona.
Mesa has her own summer resort
in the mountains northeast of that
place. 1t is called Pineair, and is all
that its name implies-a colony with
handsome little homes among the
pines and the bracing mountain air.
Globe is planning a resort in the
Pinal mountains, near that place.
This resort will probably be open
next summer. Douglas and Bisbee
are also planning to have a Cochise
country resort among the Swisshelm
mountains.
