STAY ON THE JOB!

In every community, and the
agricultural sections of Graham
county are no exception, there
are dozens Of farmers who .sfe
either getting ready to quit farm
ing entirely or wishing they could.
The reason is the extremely low
price of farm products and the
high cost of implements and
necessities. In every period OF
distress there are always a lot OF
summer soldiers" who give up
q, the first frost. And it is they
who help to improve conditions
for the man who sticks on the
job. There are certain to be
hard times in any business, and
agriculture is no exception. But
the real business man, the reaI
farmer, is the one who both looks
ahead and prepares ahead. He
is the one we depend on to pre-
vent a calamity, and there are
still many of his kind left in Ora
ham county. So we may safely
predict that present conditions
will not last long. Brighter day:
are just ahead of us at the turr
of the road. The man who sticks
to the job now is the man wht
will eashin when the crest of the
present after-the-war crisis has
been tided.

The great Gillespie dam across
the Gila river near Gila Bend is

vagrant waters of the Gila-some-
times in small amounts and again
in mighty and turbulent volume
are forced to find outlet in the
narrow space of 1900 cyncosure
of engineering eyes for a genera
ton. The dam will constitute
the main works of vast irriga-
ton system second in Arizona
only to the world famed Roose-
welt Dam. 1t will bring into cul-
.tivation and intense horticultural
and agricultural production a
hundred-thousand acres.
These acres are wonderfully
rich in soil and so situated that
the diversity of crops will COM
bine those most profitable of the
temperate and tropical zones.
Among the products that can
be successfully grown on this
acreage may be mentioned: AL
ialfa, long staple cotton, wine
aud raisin grapes, oranges, lines,
decidious fruits of all kinds,
olives, dates, figs. wheat. corn
and barley. Nearly every gar
u,n product that the earth pro-
duces may be grown in the para
disc to be under the Gillespie
Dam.
The land under this project is
gently sloping area along the
banks of the Gila river, present
ing to the agricultural mind an
ideal topography for irrigated
farming. Situated where the
5 uthern Pacific meets the Ajo
railroad, about sixty miles south
