date demonstration farm producing
the various crops suitable to be pro-
duced by the soil and climatic con-
ditions in the district.
with the SOIL climate and water
available, there lis no reason on earth
why the vegetables to. supply Doug
las, Bisbee and the many other ad-
jacent mining towns should be ship
ped in during the so-called winter
months as they are now.
''As an illustration, take sweet po-
tatoes, that do and can be grown in
abundance on the above mentioned
shallow water lands, and of quality
excelled in no part of the west or
southwest, and yet they were being
shipped into Douglas when the writer
was here in the early part of Feb
ruary and retailed at ten cents per
pound, due to the fact that the ma
tive potato supply had been exhaust
ed or spoiled owing to. improper
curing and storage. M
"By the erection Of proper cold
storage plant. all the vegetables now
shipped in could be raised and stored
at home, thus Keeping the money in
circulation at hone instead of it's

the state and country, thus becoming

ticular Subject of my report to

agg Grating or over-entnused as to
the possibilities of the land subject
in question. But after having seen
this and similar land produce when
supplied with adequate water by ir-
rigation it is hard for me to hold
myself down to point where the
facts told will not seem unreason-
able to those not having had the
privilege of seeing it themselves, as
many of the possibilities are unbe-
ievable."
Suggests Dairying.
Sexton added in connection with
the reading of the report that $54OO
goes out of the district every week
for butter, and this money might be
kept in circulation here by starting
dairying in the valley which would
in turn stimulate the farmer to grow
feed and alfalfa for which 100000
is sent out of Douglas yearly, ac-
cording to the statement of Victor
Holding.
Sexton recited an incident which
illustrates the productivity of the
Sulphur Springs valley: A man went
down in the valley year ago last
August without money for the pur-
pose of working and finally buying
40-acre tract. He borrowed the
tools to start with, and after work.

ter season. Today that man has paia
for one-half of the 40 acres, has
bought small house, and owns his
Ford, and he produced on but 12
acres of the 40.
The Arizona Edison company made
a thorough canvass of the ranches,
found water levels from - to 60
feet for a distance over 20 miles, and
found the farmers in the valley very
enthusiastic over the possibility of
the power line being run. In the
Elfrida district, 1000 horsepower in

possibility of sufficient water being
found at a reasonable depth below
the surface that could be developed
by electrically driven pumping equip
ment installed in properly construct
ed wells that would result in an
earning factor for the Arizona Edi-
son company, should they decide to
extend their line to the various min
ing towns in the Sulphur Springs
valley, Tombstone and Bisbee, by so
constructing their line to pass through
the various so reported shallow water
belts located between the different
mining towns they intended to reach
and furnish with current.
while the government reports and
maps gave an encouraging outlook
we decided to make "a personal in
vestigation by going over the route
that had been selected for the line
extension, and make an investigation
of our own, thus verifying previous
reports as to the water supply avail
able.
"In doing this, we visited several
wells both large and small as to
their depth, size, capacities, meth
DDS of conaruction and developing.
1--WE found on this investigation
that the we'll construction and pump
ing equipment ewas crude and not up
to standard, yet the results obtained
were marvellous, and in some in
stances, would be unbelievable should
attempt to describe them other
than to state we passed over thou
sands of acres of as fertile lands as
can be found in any state with water
available from properly constructed
wells ranging in depth from Is to
15O feet, that would deliver 500 to
1000 gallons per minute each.
This above mentioned water sup
ply was thoroughly proven to the
writer by the various wells now be-
ing operated at many and widely
separated points on the lands through
which the proposed line extension is
contemplated, and in time there
should be hundreds and perhops thou
