valley good citrus lands may De se- cured for about S200 per acre and upward where water for irrigation is assured anG where other farms have been in operation for several years past With the water for irrigation comes another item which cannot be had readily in other districts-power for heating and lighting generated by the water in power plants installed on the canal system which radiates throughout the valley.
 The altitude of the valley-1, ,000 to 1900 feet above sea level-is another of the advantages accrueing to the prospective grower of citrus fruits in the valley. Protection of high noun tains about the district cuts off all high winds, and small frosts are eX- perienced in the citrus belt. In the past several years only one really killing frost has injured materially the citrus growers of the valley. This same frost damaged the citrus groves of California to an even greater eX- tent.
 Drainage conditions throughout the valley are good. The lands have a slight gradient which makes irrigation and draining possible with the least expenditure of energy. In addition the soil is Of such a nature that underly- ing strata absorbs all extra water and water logged" land is practically un- known in all districts where citrus fruit is grown.

much in favor with local growers be- cause competition with the Florida markets and produce is keener and more pronounced.
 The marketing of the Arizona orange and grapefruit is the most sim pie of the many items which must be taken into consideration in their grow ing. The oranges in this state ripen on the trees several weeks in advance of the California and Florida fruit. In November Arizona oranges are seeking their way to eastern markets and are on display for the Thanksgiving and Christmas purchasers long before fruits from other markets are ripe. The California and Florida product reaches the markets in New York and Chi cago after the first of the year as rule, after the more desirable of the Arizona fruit has been sold. The price received for the Arizona fruit is also far above that received for the Cali fornia or Florida fruit. The average price for all oranges, including culls. Tor Arizona one year recently in the eastern markets, was more than $3 per box. The California average price for the same year was half this sum and the Florida average for the same period even smaller. On one occasion one shipment of Arizona oranges in

Climatic conditions, atmospheric altitude, low costs of installation and mantenance-every condition of the Salt River valley from every stand point is favorable to the production of citrus fruits, especially of oranges, olives, dates and grape fruit Nowhere in the United States are conditions more favorable for this industry Ex- perience of past years has proved this beyond fact, and the large acreage in citrus fruits which has been planted in this valley in the past two seasons is clinching testimony as to the merits of the valley.
 Ideal conditions exist for the man wishing to start in the citrus fruit industries The price of land is one of the most enticing and inviting of these conditions. Proved orange and grape fruit lands in California and Florida, where crops are not more insured than in the Salt River val ley, are held at d much higher price than the lands of this district In addition the fertility of the Salt River valley lands is proven beyond question ard the citrus grove in this district grows with strength and per- ceptible speed.
 Inflated prices in California bring the acreage of citrus farms to a fab ulOus sum. In this district, especially in the citrus belt at the base of CaIIivi EacK mountain, where the ma 1oi portion of the citrus fruit of the valley is grown, lands for the install lation of orange and grapefruit may De secured at mere trifle as com pared with other districts. In this

After the installation three years must be allowed before the first tree bears. The cost of maintenance per acre during the second and third years is about the same as the cost for the first year. These costs are all based on actual experience and are figures obtained from a successful orange grower of this district.
 On the bearing season of the fourth year the first dividends of the orchard are declared when the trees bear from one- fourth to onethird of a box to each tree or total of 22 to 27 boxes for the entire acre. With a market at from $500 to $6.50 a box this marks the first actual cash received from the original outlay.
 Yearly. then, after the fourth year the yield of the trees will increase until the trees have reached their ma turity when they will produce in full. They are in full bearing at from 10 to 20 years and continue for many more year.
 Young budded trees for the estab- lishment of orchards may be secured from any one of half-dozen or more good nurseries in this district Propa- gation is generally made from Florida sour oranges for a root stock with generally the Washington Naval and Valencia, the Mediterranean sweet or the Malta blood. Grapefruits bear more heavily than oranges in this dis ftrict at an earlier age, but are not so
