Froma_ private letter * received t night we are pleased to learn that it is simply a throat, trouble that is expected to yield readly to a few days treatment: They will probably return | some time next week. In this issue will be found a lette: from Charles J. McCord, formerly of Grand Rapids, who some four months ago left to accept a position as private secretary to the governor of Arizona. Charlie writes the editor that while he likes his new home first-rate, it is not to be compared with northorn Minnesota. His letter is a concise} statement of facts concerning the j{ territory and will be found both in-} teresting and istructive. Attention 1s called to the display ad of Emil Litchke on another page.) Mr. Litchke has been’ in the harness | business here for the past six years| the lumbermen for articles in his line and knows exactly what they require. | Many loggers, and even local mer- j chants send out of town for their har- | jness goods, thinking that they cannot | be procured here or else that an out- 'rageous price will be charged for | them. A-visit to Mr. Litchke’s shop ! on Kindred avenue will convince them that such is not the case. His} prices are as low as can be found) | anywhere and all his work guaranteed. Bear Stories. ' { Every man is either a bull ora bear, keeping things up or growling things down, and of late years there | have been a great many bears, some }of whom have survived and are still | telling their bear stories. ‘fhe fact remains that there has been a decided improvement during the past season in the amount of brsiness done by {the St. Paul & Duluth railroad,which | bas always been the favorite line be- tween St. Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth, | West Superior and other points of interest and importance. ‘This line is modern, up to date, running luxur- ious trains at convenient houre over a smooth roadbed between handsome terminals, ‘Ticket agents will always supply you with maps, etc., or they may be obtained by writing direct to C.

Continued from Fourth Page. the past 22 years is 73, and the aver- age rainfall less than four inches During that time Yuma has averaged } 279 cloudless days each year. Cy- clones and blizzards are entirely un- known, but the balmy. pure. dry, scent-laden and life-giving air, im- j parting vigor to brain and muscle, and restoring and preserving health, | is ever with us in the torm of a sweet, gentle breeze, direct'y from the Gulf | of California. HORTICULTURE AND AGRICULTURE. The lands of Yuma county, com- prising the river bottoms and valleys | and uplands or mesas, are wonder- fully adapted to fruit culture and agricultural products. The bottom lands are slighely richer than the up- lands, but are not as good for the cultivation of citrus fruits. ‘The valley lands of the Colorado and Gila rivers have a deep sedimentary soil of brownish-gray, sandy loam, resting upon ag: clay subsoil, im- ing a depth of from ten to twenty feet. This soil | is‘extremely rich in fertilizing ele- ments and is idextical with that of the River Nile. The upland soil is more gravelly aud seems to be especially adapted for the grape,olive aud citrus fruits—the lime, lemon and orange. Our fruits ripen and are ready for market a full month before the California product; our flowers arein bloom and our grain fields are the color of the shamrock when the northern aud eastern farmers are resting their weary eyes upon ficids | of ice and snow. The intense heat during the summer makes it’ very | unpleasant and difficult for the ordi- | nary individual to perform the neces- sary labour to make avy money in the | pursuit of agriculture or horticulture. | Many start out fully determined to Withstand the heat and make a suc- | cess of the venture, but most of them get, like the natives, too lazy vo work. MINES AND MINING. The greatest and richest mive in the world is situated at Jerome, A. 'T., aud is said to pay its owner nine million déllars aunually. Gold quartz mining is successfully carried on in all parts of the territory. apd many very rich mines are in | active operation. Wet and dry placer | ining Is not very extensively en- gaged in, although the Colorado river is said to be wonderfully rich in | placers. Silver is fouvd in great quantities, bub owing to its recent Bryanization, is of little value. Lead; iron, Coal, zinc, manganese, nickel, cobalt, mInica aud graphite aredound, ‘urquoise, opais, garuetsy tourmialines, agatized woud, aud ouyx are successfully mined. About hundred miles south of here a sulphur mine is being worked. PINE TIMBER AND FARMING LANDS.

One can turn over to the canal companies most of one’s land in paymeut for water rights because forty acres are about all one wants to cultivate, MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION. Much has been said and written about the poisonous reptiles and in- sects of Arizona. I have beeu un- able so farto find anything cf the kind or to learn of a case of death resulting froma bite of une of these insects or reptiles, But they,certain- ly exist in some parts of the territory An old resident told me that more people were killed by lightning in the north that were bitten by pvison- ; ous “varmints’’ in Arizona. About. sixty miles south of here, where the Hardy joins the Colorado, can be found the greatest hunting and fishing grounds in Ducks, geese, quail, deer turkeys, muillets, salmon, jewtish, &e., &e., can be taken in large quan- tities hr little effort. A party of us have chartered a steamer to take us there January 15th, next.
