 As constructive business man Mir. Marsh manifested a high de. gree of ability, and enduring monuments to his judgment and acumen are eseen on every side. The first two-story brick building erect. ed in Nogales, marking its transi- tion from an adobe town to one of more enduring construction, was erected by him and it is yet the property of the corporation he founded. It is the Marsh Block on Morley Avenne, facing the june tion of Park street, occupied by the Sonora News Company and the El Paso Store, in the second story the National Hotel conducted by the George B. Marsh Incorporation. The large brick block on Grand Avenue, where are the Post Office and several business establish ments, was erected also by Mir. Marsh, and several other structures standing in the town are to his credit. He founded also and de- veloped into valuable commercial property the hardware and plumb ing business which is yet under ownership of the incorporation.
 In public life Mir. Marsh held many important positions, having been treasurer of Santa Cruz Coun- ty, in the creation of which polit. ical subdivision of Arizona he was an important factor; and upon the municipal council he served several terms with signal ability.

GEORGE B. MARSH, INC.
An Extensive and Successful Enterprise Filling an Important Place in the
 County.

One of the most extensive and successful commercial and busi- ness enterprises operating in the line city was founded and developed to a high degree of usefulness and value by the late George B. Marsh, whose early demise in 1911 was a sad loss to the town and il matter of profound grief to a wide circle of sincere friends who will hold his memory ever enshrined deeply within their hearts.
 Recognizing the inherent ad- vantages of it's situation MT. Marsh located at Nogales, in 1887, and at once he assumed commanding position among the leaders in the business life of the thriving, grow ing city, while through all the

tensive business and property in- terests which have been created and conducted so long and effect ively by MT. Marsh, were taken in hand by his widow, who succeeded him in the management of the incorporation; and in the skilful management she has evinced in the conduct of the extensive affairs to which she has succeeded the lady has made already her mark as keen, far sighted and with a remarkable grasp of details.
 In the extensive commercial business conducted by the George B. Marsh Incorporation there are carried several different lines, all well and completely stocked, in hardware including shelf hardware, carpenters supplies, builders hard ware, heavy hardware, stoves, windmills, galvanized tanks; in the plumbing and tinshop all sorts of tinware and plumbers supplies; in house furnishings, drawing room, parlor, dining room and kitchen furniture, rugs, linoleums, crockerv and glassware; in vehicles and stable furnishings, Studebaker farm and ore wagons, Studebaker two seated spring wagons "Old Hick- ory" farm wagons, "Old Hickory" ore wagons and California stake rack bed wagons, harness and farm implements. Connected with the house are undertaking parlors, a licensed embalmer, and undertak- ing supplies are dealt in.
 Beside attending closely to the widely extended business interests of the corporation the lady has found time to devote to public matters of the utmost importance and in the recent successful cam paign for equal suffrage in Arizona Mrs. Marsh was d most earnest and effective worker. One article from her pen, published in TBF OASIS, is credited with having changed to support the cause many voters who were opposed.

and staple groceries and merchan- disc, calculated to meet at the shortest notice and fill promptly the largest orders that can come.
 The Cocospera ranche, embracing the sweep of principality, is in the Magdalena District of Sonora. and is reached from Imuris. a station about forty miles south from Nogales. on the Sonora rail way, or from Martinez, on the Ga nanea railway, about twenty. five miles distant from the line city. from either station the hGcaendG or nome ranche" is about twenty miles distant, but the boundary lines of the grants are not more than six or seven miles distant from the line of either railway.
 The ranche embraces two great land grants, title direct from the federal government of Mexico, each including about 25,000 acres of land-the Cocospera and the Teresa concessions; and they cover the entire Cocospera valley, with the slopes of the Pineta mountains and the Sierra Azul. the beautiful valley lying between, we'll watered by the Cocospera river and its affluents, great part of the flow of which, amounting to several thousand inches, has been ap- propriated under the irrigation laws, for watering the bottom lands in the valley, embracing about 30,000 acres. Available reservoir sites offer facilities for storage that can add greatly to the supply at the time 1t is needed most, and give sufficient to cover all the land upon which canals can be run. Upon the mesas and foothills of the mountains are thousands of acres of fine grazing grounds, covered with rich and succulent grasses, affording pasture for vast herds of cattle, of which there are now sev- eral thousand, all high grade Herefords, chased as the best of range cattle for beef. With the broad fields of alfalfa on the bot. tom lands, and the grass on"the mesas, the cattle can be raised to maturity, and fattened for market right at Cocospera, giving the best prices and largest returns. At the great copper mining camp at Cana nea, and in the cities of Hermosillo Guaymas and Nogales. there are great and growing markets for all the fattened bullocks that can be turned off from the ranch.
 The Pineta mountains are cover ed to their very summits with splen
 did forests of pine and fir, with a grand growth of oak on the lower r hills. The stumpage in the pine forests has been estimated by ex perts to exceed in value the hand some sum of one million dollars , American money. One day all tha latent wealth will be realized, anC even at the present time 1t may bt counted a very valuable asset.
 To that great and handsome , property, and to the extensive husi ness at Nogales Don Anton and hi nephews Anton and Manuel Prot at the ranche, and MT. Spiro Proto at the store in Nogales, give clos 5 and careful attention, and they ar developing them to high degre of usefulness and value.

Boston March 29.-The proposed extern

submitted to them by the Legislature
The joint board states that it would he
distinctly in the best interests Of the state
10 encourage the extension 10 Boston of
any trunk line railroad. II is their belief,
however. that the Grand Trunk act now be-
fore the Legislature, which provides five
years within which TO locate and ten years

sion built as speedily as possible.
In the opinion of the board the stimu-
lating effect of direct competitive con-
nectlon from Boston 10 the great traffic
centres Of Chicago. Milwaukee, Toledo, De-
trot and Buffalo would be great.
In conclusion the board saws:
Financial interests in active control Of the
