An Arizona Letter.

TEMPE, ARIZONA.

Editor Ttcy vbUcan: I write a few lines to you to let my fr-Tis AND the readers of the REPUBLICAN kn.iv what kind a country we have here, in Salt iiiver Valley. I do no: wish to "blow" about our Valley too much, but will tell about the way our country is, and not blow it up, as some of the writers have done in the past.

We have one of the finest countries under the shining sun, California alone can equal it, but. not excel it in anyway, shape or form. It is equal to any country in the world for raising small grain, such as oats, wheat and barley. I send some wheat that will make 40 bushels per acre, and it has not been seeded tor four years. The ranchmen let their grain get dead ripe before cutting, and in cutting their crop with a header the grain scatters off a great deal, so that just as soon as they get their straw stacked they irrigate the land and consequently they have a heavy crop the next year. Now this looks a little unreasonable, but if any one doubts my word let them come out and make a visit to our "Sun Kissed Valley" and see for themselves and they will find it just as I say. The cost of irrigating the land is from $1.00 to $1.50 per acre a year. Corn does not do very well here, unless it is planted about the last of June or middle of July, and some plant as late as August, as the sun is so hot that it burns it up in the summer mouths. Alfalfa is our best cnop here, we get four crops each season off the same land, and as a general rule alfalfa yields from oue ton to two tons per acre at each cutting. We irrigate the land as soon as it is cut and stacked. Barley, wheat and oats is irrigated from 3 to 4 times each season. Hay harvest commences the middle of April and lasts until the first of October. Garden vegetables grow all the year, one can go to the garden and get all kinds of vegetables he could wish for, such as beans, peas, lettuce, radishes, turnips, cabbage and potatoes. Fruit of all kiials grow here in abundance, figs, pears and grapes each season, our first crop will soon be ripe. This is a great place for hogs, cattle and sheep aud are raised on a big scale. We do not feed grain to stock here, like you do in old Hoosierdom the ranchmen feed alfalfa, exclusively, to all kinds of stock. The bee industry is run on a largo scale, some ranchmen have 300 to 500 stands. It never snows in the Valley to amount to an inch in depth, and when it does fall it remains only for one or two hours. Land is very high, being from $50 to $100 per acre, according to the location. We never have any natural ice, only what is shipped here from the east or North. Bring an Indiana farmer here and you could not give him one of the best ranches in the Valley, No timber except Mosquette and cottonwood that is set out

DIED—Mrs. Nancy Shelby, relict of the late Joshua W. Shelby, who precededher some four months to the Spirit Land. She died at her home in Buckereek town-s ship three miles northwest of Philadelphia^ of congestion of the lungs and a general letting down ot the nervous system. She died on Saturday, May 11, 1889, aged 75 years, seven months and seven days. She* was born in South Carolina and came to Indiana in 183:j with her parents, Samuel and Polly Dunn, aud came to Hancock County in 1834 where she has lived ever since. Was married to Joshua W. Shelby December 2(itli, 1839, to which union was born eight children, four boys and four girls, three of whom preceded her to the Spirit Land. Three boys and two girls survive to mourn the loss of a good mother. She united with the Regular Baptist church in her 19th year and ever after lived an exemplary christian life. She left a bright evidence behind that she was going home to heaven, telling her friend** she was not afraid to die for she was trusting in the Lord. She was a devoted wife, a kind mother and a good neighbor. She leaves three brothers and a large circle of friends and neighbors. To the church she was a devoted and exemplary member. Children, I would say, '*mo1her is at rest." Prepare to meet father and mother in heaven where parting will be no more. Trust in a mother's God. She was a hard-working, industriousm woman, always looking after the welfare of her children and grandchildren. But mother is gone on earth you will meet her no more her work is done her sufferings are o'er? her trials are past her victory won. Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord, yea, sayeth the spirit, for thenworks do follow them. The funeral of Nancy aud Joshua W. Shelby took place at their residence in the yard on the 12th by Rev. J. S. McCallum, ot Irviugton, of the Christian church, from Rev, xiv 13. after which the remains v.ere taken to the Philadelphia Cemetery for the interment followed by a very large concourse of friends and neighbors. She was laid to rest beside her husband to
