Industrial Activity
In Cochise County.
The outlook for much in
dustrial activity in all parts
of Cochise county never be
fore was more flatterring than
richtnow. After some dull
period in the various mining
districts of the county the de
velopment work is again on
with increased activity and
good results are looked lor.
Besides the rich minerals the
marble industry promises to
become a recognized factor in
the ereat industrial field of
Cochise county. The great
marble deposits in the Dra
goon mountains has attracted
Eastern capital and even- in
dication points to a time not
far off when the building ma
terial from the Dragoons will
be shipped to be used in con
struction of fine palaces the
world over. The agricultural
industry also has a greater
promise since many artesian
water flows have been struck
in the valleys.
According to the official
census figures Arizona has

most every one of Arizona's
farmers owns his own farm
and that free from debts. It
is, without an- doubt, a big
score in favor of "back to the
soil" movement, and speaks
well for the broad fertile acreb
of Arizona. The painstak
ing and industrous Arizona
"tillers of the soil" have made
the desert bloom like a rose.
Cochise county stands first
in mineral production, in
stocK raising, in population,
-in taxable property, etc. Be
sides those mentioned it lias
an asset that can not be
valued in dollars and cents.
The Prospector means our
ideal all the year around
climate and inspiring scenery.
This is an asset that brings
the best class of people here
and keeps them here.

Ojcd claims to be a citizen of tbe
