FAMOUS WRITER DESCRIBES
TRIP THROUGH ARIZONA

In an article on "The Great South
west" published in Century Magazine,
Ray Stannard Baker described trip
he made in Arizona. Following are
few paragraphs from the story hav-
ing reference especially to the Salt
River valley:
"This was the desert. Who would
dream of men bold enough to come
here and fight for a home?
"Yet here men have come. Suddenly
at shutdown, we emerged from a
thicket of cactus, and there, stretch
ing away for miles and miles, were
soft green fields, with rows of rust
ling cottonwoods, the roofs of homes,
and the sound of cattle in the mea-
dows.
A wire fence was the dividing line;
on this side lay the fruitless desert,
on the other green alfalfa, full of
blossoms and bees, bromming over
the fences. At the roadside ran a
ditch full Of fresh, cool water red
wing blackbirds whistled in the cot
tonwoods and wild pigeons flew up
from the fields. Fat cattle stood
knee deep in the pastures; the men
were coming out whistling to milk. A
little brick house stood back from,
the road, almost hidden with palms
and umbrella trees; there were chick
ems about it, and the scent of roses
from the porch.
Everywhere the landscape was
serenely quiet and beautiful; here
were homes and happiness. 1t was
something to stir mans heart, this
change from the hard, dry, merciless
desert to this sweet, green paradise
Of irrigation land"
