''The heavy slope of the land will provide excellent drainage and makes it especially adapted to pipe irriga- ton which means a saving of 40 per cent in the use of water. In gem eral character, the land is similar to that on which some of the finest orange groves in California are To- cated-"
 Few persons have ever had the temerity to dispute the excellence or the soil of the Paradise-Yerdep prot- ect. In general. 1t Consists of a rich brown loam. heavily impregnated with vegetable matter. One of its charac- teristics is that 1t does not bake either In a dry or wet state. and this means that it can be worked on 10 equal advantage either damp or dry. In general the soil is not nearly SO heavy as that found in the cultivated lands of the Salt River valley.
 No higher tribute 10 the soil con, ditions of the Paradise-Nerde dis trict could be said than that uttered by A r. Davis. head or the recisma- ton service. It was in the course of a conference between Secretary of the Interior Franklin B. Lane.

 II was surprised 70 see state ment in the paper the other day to the effect that fruit cound not be raised in Paradise valley. IL made me laugh. I felt like telling the ed- itor of that paper that a large pro portion of all the oranges raised in this district come from Paradise val ley. Many people don't know 1t. but Scottsdale and Ingleside, two of the most famous orange centers. are To- cated on lands which the government maps designate as part of Paradise valley. My land is located up in to northeast corner of the project. have been watching the frost situa- ton there for r2 yeais and in all that time the iron wood trees were only nipped once and that was the win ter when orange trees all through the valley were badly frozen think it conservative to state that % per cent of the e6, 900 acres in the prof ect could be grown to advantage to citrus fruit. Last winter brought into town fully developed heads of barley. wheat and oats in Febru- ary. These grains were grown on my land in the Paradise-Verde. and will speak for themselves as to the gen eral absence of frost
 George W. Sturtc,ant. one of the engineers for the district. sometime ago made an exhaustive study oi soil conditions. making borings In all parts of the district. Referring tc the same lands mentioned by Hart he said:
 This portion of the district Is a lit- tie rough and graveily. but to my mind 1t is most superbly adapted tc dates. figs. grapes and citrus fruit It will make the very best horticul- tural land in the project. The soil i. light sandy load carrying a higi percentage of humus.

as well as old settlers on the project
 It is well known that all of-the best citrus producing sections of Califor- nj are located in thermal belts lying on sloping ground adjacent to the foothills or main mountain ranges Persons who have studied conditions in the Paradise-ve district for ten years or more have no hesitancy in declaring that genuine thermal belt exists there, and If this be true it is safe to predict it contains at least 1000 acres. especially adapted to citrus culture and is destined to be- come the most important citrus pro- ducing area in Arizona> This ther- nal belt starts at the extreme north east corner of the project and follows along the edges of the Phoenix and McDowen mountains to the extreme western edge of the district
 "warmer in winter and cooler in summer, and with slightly more pre- cipitation" is the verdict of any number of old timers. when asked as to their observations as to climatic conditions of the Paradise-Nerde dis trict- These conditions are especial ly favorable to the cultivation of both citrus and deciduous fruits.
 But the absence of frost is the main thing to consider in picking orange land, and there are portions of these lands which have never been visited with anything like a severe frost. They are covered with palo verde and ironwood and this is considered an excellent indication, for ironwood does not withstand frost. and with the exception of one winter, these trees have never been so much as touched.
 A good circulation of air is the greatest enemy. to frost and the air currents along the higher lands of the project are very pronounced. The more slope to the land the better cir culation of air. for the theory is that the warm air rises against the foot hills. while the cooler air sinks to the floor of the valley.

 other day. Mir. Hart was president ] of the original Paradise Valley

Study the picture here for a mo- ment, and you will perceive that it is intended to illustrate in forceful manner, truth which is well known to all residents of Arizona.
 "The Power of Water" it might be called On one side a typical desert scene-a land of desolation unfit for human habitation. and unable even to support the range stock which sometimes stray that way. On the other side the same desert trans formed by the magic of water into a paradise of luxuriant vegetation. where most everything grows that can be grown anywhere.
 As matter of fact the picturesis a clever combination of two valley views brought together to show this contrast. It represents what has been done to date in the Salt River valley it represents what can be done with the lands of the Paradise-v Verde irri- gation district-and what will be done The view on the left is typical of the Paradise valley today; the one on the right of what it will be ten years from today
 The writer has purposely selected a Citrus grove as typical of the devel- opment of the Paradise Verde lands for two reasons. First, because there is a general similarity between the Paradise-Ver lands which lie along either side of the project and the lands of one of the finest citrus fruit producing centers in California, with which he Is thoroughly familiar those embraced in the Porterville and adjacent districts known as the Tu- lare county orange belt. Second, be- cause the soil and climatic condi-
 tions are favorable to citrus culture
