TO TRY FARMING IN
SANTA CRUZ VALLEY
Japanese From Near Phoenix Lease
Land for Experimental Purposes.
VIII Try Onions and Potatoes.

Nogales, Ariz., Oct. 10.-Thomas
Cumming, a well known rancher from
Calabasas, is trying an experiment
which may result in the coming of a
large number Of Japanese farmers to
this section of the safe. He has
leased about 25 acres of his best land
to a japanese from Phoenix, and the
entire tract will be planted in onions
and potatoes, neither of which crop has
had a great deal Of attention in this
vicinity in the past
The japanese, who is an experienced
farmer, states than he believes the
land and climate is well suited to both
but particularly to onions, and if he is
successful with his experiment, he
states that many japanese will come to
this section of Arizona provided they
can get hold Of the land at a reasonable
figure
An industry of this kind will mean
much to Santa Cruz county, as a large
part of the fine farming land along the
Santa Cruz river between Calabasas and
Tucson, is and always has been in the
hands of the Mexican farmers who are
satisfied to raise few beans and
melons, and a little corn each year.

be worked to give it the value which it
