THE CITY FARMER.
(By Frank l. Stanton)
SO Ninsome fine my garden locks,
Not even little way Id roam;
Here bending o'er my city books,
The climbing eornblades wave me home,
Columns TO count and then go
To greet green things that call me
And twilight stars, and at the gate
A welcome for the days glad toll,
And in the gathering darkness late
To read the sweet dreams OF the soil.
Round me dream-shadowed curtains fall:
Mine is the Peace that's all in all.

crowding close upon US on every

cannot quite analyze the lure Of
the desert, but it is there unmis-
takably. It's low even floor is
covered with q great variety of
plant life that. to the native Of Illi-
nois. accustomed to fields Of corn
and other grains, is ever new and
strange. Examine almost anything
that grows on the desert, whether
it be shrub, tree or cactus. and you
will find that 1t bristles with thorns
or spines, or spikes, which almost
seems to jump at you as you ap-
proach them, 80 suspicious are they
Of every marauder.
Perhaps the most characteristic
and typical growth on the desert
is the supuaro or giant cactus.
These sentinels of the desert, rails
ing their thick fluted columns to a
heighth of from 20 to SO feet, are
peculiarly picturesque. Some rise
as single columns, others have a
few branches, thick and sturdy,
that rise from the parent stalk like
candelabra, or extend out from il
and curve down like the horns OF
a Texas steer, all protected by
thick little rosettes of sharp
thorns. Woodpeckers make holes
far up the. trunks which are often
usurped by tiny owls and used by
them as homes.
The creosote bush is found ev-
erywhere, growing about five feet
high and its small, glossy leaves
look as if they had just been var.
nished. They are sticky to the
touch and have a pungent odor

tell me with every show OF veracity
that my sleep will be broken by
the cry OF mountain lions lurking
close by: that bobcats prowl around
the cabins at night. and that deer
come to the mountain stream which
flows by the camp for their morn

they will have to make good and

Is It Really Anericai
Clustered about Tumacocon are
numerous Indian huts. against
whose outer walls hang strings OF
bright red chilli berries, flung like
banners to every passing wind.
Burros browse upon tin cans, and
the women. old and young, wrapped
up in "reboses" and "tapalos" 1--WE
call them mantillas). peep out at
US with one eye, all Of the face that
remains uncovered. Barefoot chill

Nogales l found an interesting
busy little place, situated in a
valley, from whose main streets
the hills rise abruptly and on
whose brows are built the homes
Of the upper crust. l might easily

Signs on store windows are in

ward the south to direct the lost
traveller.
Then there is the cholla cactus,
an ugly mass of spreading, con-
torted branches, thickly covered
with short, fierce thorns. Brush
them ever so slightly and the
spines leap at you and bury them
selves in the flesh. and how they
do burn and smart!
Quite characteristic, too, is the
nopal or prickly pear cactus, with
its fiat, many lobed, succulent
branches bristling with thorns.
These juicy lobes serve as food for
stock and it is a funny sight to see
the faces of range cows thickly
covered with spines from the
prickly pear.
The tiny pincushion cactus, not
much larger than a door-knob,
grows close to the ground and
sends out a tiny red bulb. The
yucca on its high silt, from the
center Of whose long, sharp leaves
rises a tall spine covered with
white flowers, is a common sight
and then there are the thistles, just
now covered with white, waxy
bloom, and the ocatilla, the most
artistic and attractive of the cac-
tus family. The natives call it the
coach whip, and it grows as high
as Is feet, spreading out gracefully
like a handful of long whips from
common base. The entire length
4, of the stem is covered with tiny,
! glossy green leaves and bright
crimson flowers, striking and
wonderful fame of color. The palo
verde, meaning green stem, is a
small tree which grows th:ckly,
especially where moisture accum-
ulates, and it is also preparing to
adorn itself with millions of yell
low blossoms. The mesquite, a
low growing, spreading tree, is
used almost exclusively by the In
dams as firewood. 1t covers the
low foot hills and as one ap-
proaches them they look like old
peach trees set in orchard rows, sc
evenly does nature seem to have
planted them.
Suddenly leaving the desert We
come upon an expanse Of green
fields divided into parallel rows by
long straight irrigation bitches
through which the water gurglet
with a musical sound. Water is
plentiful 80 feet down, and it is
electrically pumped to the receiv.
ing tanks and from them distrib
uted to the bitches.

Tumacacc-i ID fast falling to

try. 1t was ut one time thickly
populated by the peaceful Pima,
Paxago and Yaqui Indians who
were constantly menaced BY the
Apaches.
Tumacocori issa pretentious es-
adjustment still. though so much
Of it has crumbled to dust. A high
adobe wall. extending from the
rear walls of the mission proper,
incloses a court perhaps two hun
dred feet long and one hundred
feet wide.,> In the center of this
court is q round prison-like adobe
building about twenty-five feet high.
1t has but one entrance and small
holes close to the roof admitted the
only light, though the roof has
long ago returned to dust, and
nothing now remains but the wall.
1t may have been q last refuge
against the attacking Indians, for
the mission also served as q fort.
In the court yard are numerous
graves marked by rudely construct
ed crosses held erect by stones
piled about them and across whose
arms are various emblems of the
church. Whose last resting place
they mark / have not been able to
discover, for no lettering is distin-
guishable now, II there ever had

The ruins Of q large square tow
er form one corner Of the main
structure, and in. its belfry. part Of
which remains, undoubtedly swung
the chimes that called the simple
folk to worship and rang for them

many inches supported by short,
round columns, where once reposed

for the rounded dome from which
rises a columned cupola above the

holy place as best it can, though
the roof over the remainder of the
entire structure has long ago fall
