NOTED PHYSICIAN
 COMMENTS ON CLIMATE
(From Sundays Daily)

Dr. w. V. s. Powers of New York, who has been spending the Christmas holidays with his brother, A. H. Pow CTS, editor of Yavapai Magazine, states that no place in the world and assurcdly none of the health resorts Of Europe have even modicum of the advantages of Prescott from eli matic standpoint.
 "Thc great specialists of London, Berlin and Paris send their patients to the Riviera and Egypt because these places offer certain desirable conditions during parts of the year and they know their patients will be able to find luxurious accommoda- tions to which they have been accus- toned and without which they would not be content. Even at their best these resorts lack the wonderful eli mate of Prescott.
 Dr. Powers found that it was al most impossible to make his profes- sional associates in Europe believe the simple stories of the climate and the resources of Prescott as they ap- peared in Yavapai Magazine. Pre- conceived notions Of Arizona as flat desert waste crowded with cactus and teeming with rattlcsnakes, Gila mon stcrs and rough-neck cowboys, made them feel that the editor was "spoOf- ing" the iIl-informed outsider by tell ing of beautiful fine forests, great grass ranges teeming with cattle and cities made up largely of college-brcd men and women with elaborate sew craze systems, baths galore and Yavapai Club.
 But, as for that" added Dr. Pow CTS, when 1 would tell them about the big trees in California, the Yoscm- ite valley, the great raisin vine yards of Fresno and other things with which I was familiar 1 found that they eyed me with suspicion even though I never vcnturcd to tell all the truth.
 "If the physicians of the world real 1y knew about Prcscotts climate in conjunction with its great altitude, you would have city of 10000 in nabitants instead of coco. But your problem is most difficult. It will be very hard to make a large part oi the profession believe that conditions such as you will describe can actually exist" ""
 Dr. Powers leaves for San Fran cisco on Monday to spend a few weeks with brothers and sisters there.
