|NCLES|DE, PLACE OF REST
 BEAUTY SPOT IF THE VALLEY

I temperature is more even and the air purer and drier as it comes from 1 the mountains beyond above the ir- rigatiOn.
 It was in this picturesque and ideal location that MT. Murphy and his as sociuteS decided to build the residence town of the valley A part of this section 2S was plated into blocks, lots. streets and avenues and, in conformity with the plat, an orange orchard was planted out, the first
 orange orchard to be planted in the
 Salt River Valley. There was also an olive grove of some 20 acres, and, in addition. q decidious fruit orchard planted in the townsite. The town site was christtnoG "InglesIde" This orange grove is the veteran,
 pioneer of the Salt River Valley Ci- truS industry and has come through all the reservoir" hard times; being the first grove to be planted in a new country under conditions which are not exactly the same as
 any other citrus country it would
 naturally be somewhat of an eXperi
 mental farm. It has withstood the
 experiments of scientists and others
 who have had to do with the de-
 velOpment of our citrus industry. This
 grove has stood out in the winter
 nights without an orchard heater of any kind. with the friendly shadow of old Comeback only for protection
 and las dared Jack Frost to do
 his Worst and today it challenges
 the citrus world to show better trees
 or finer fruit.
 This grove in the first year of it's
 bearing, 1894. at san Francisco car
 ricd off the gold medal which Florida
 and California tried so hard to win. 1
 In that year it was the only grove in
 the Salt River Valley in bearing. i
 The fruit was picked early, as soon
 as it ripened and shipped to San
 Francisco and, after being stored for
 d month or so waiting for the com petitve fruit to ripen, it won hands down.
 The town of Ingleside has never
 been opened to the public, because
 of the lack of railway transportation
 between Phoenix and Ingleside. ItI is the plan of the Ingleside Company which now owns the Ingleside pro
 ject. to open the town as soon as the electric trolley line from Phoe-
 nix is completed.
 The company has aIreauy punt a neat. tasty clubhouse and several cottages These buildings were de- signed by one of Chicago's foremost architects. Dwight H. Perkins. The buildings are located on five acres of ground between two parts of the ! orange grove and at intervals over the ground in front of the buildings are large, Mission olive trees the first that were planted in the Salt ! River Valley.
 i Around the buildings are large ! lawns, bordered with many kinds of the most beautiful roses, now in full bloom. Roses bloom all winter long

 On the west of the club grounds is
 an avenue of graceful peppers. The club house is the main building in
 which there is a large, comfortable dining room and sitting where all
 the guests occupying the rooms in the club house and cottages, eat. Be sides the club house, there are cot
 tages of various sizes so that if one wishes to enjoy the privacy and con venience of home life without the
 bother of managing an establishment, one can do so by taking one of the l cottages and boarding at the club i house, just few yards distant. | The Ingleside club is not q public hotel, but in the intention of those who organized the club and built the | buildings was to have q family club
 for those who wanted to enjoy our | climate in q quiet way. The Inglcside | club does not advertise mo sick talk l en- and then suspend the rule for l every sick application but the ideal | of keeping Ingleside "a place for well people to rest is lived up to- | The board of directors, one of whom 1 is q doctor, passes on all applications 1 for accommodations and while the di- 1 rectors are desirous that all the rooms 1 of the club house and cottages that are not wanted by the members should | he used for transient visitors to the ] valley and others who are in sym pathy with the spirit of the place, yet the first and most important
 thing is to keep the club free of the many objections met with at com mercial hotels and public resorts. The Ingleside club is not an ad vertisement for farm lands, but d nucleus around which will be built a town of beautiful homes under the |
