Emm Thuradays Daily ORCHARDS AND VINEYARDS. Aht Worda Concerning a Vary Important Matter. Mesa, Abxz., March 20,1901. Editors Free Press: Noticing in some recent issues of gihlir paper your endeavors to bring to the people's attention the mat mat. - . mat. ter of the dying out of orchards and | vineyards in this locality, and what this state of affairs is to bring us to, I would be glad to say a feW words also upon the subject. We afford to he without our arrived homes, with nothing growing around but alfalfa fields, is not enough. The latter are all right in their places, but the home is not all right without any garden or orchard, vineyard or shade trees. ' The writer feels that the situa situation, - tion, situation, though at first view might seem discouraging - finding our ourselves - selves ourselves now where we are - yet with a proper interest on the part of all, and with a right understanding of the cause of this present condition, we may with assurance look for forward - ward forward to the. time when the same Will be ch mged, and feels safe in j predictiug for this valley, not many years hence, such a change on this line as will be a surprise to most of us. ' As you, Mr. Editors, say, it is through lack of caae that our or orchards - chards orchards are dying out. And why have they not been cared for? It seems to follow as a natural conse consequence - quence consequence in the development of a new: c mntry, and the writer remembers when the same point was reached jin California. But in California -Upi see that the orchards and ! vineyards are taken care of, and! are prolific and profitable, and comprise much of the beauty and wealth of the State. This condition of decay and dy dying - ing dying out of orchards, etc., comes as a result of the ideas entertained by the early Settlers, v Whey they plant j their tr&s they are not thinking of fftfbfiti or even of the same being a j very factor to their in inj - j inj terest, but only have in mind that * they frill be of fii -home convenience |q them. Their busi business - ness business is altogether on other lines, and their trees only get secondary consideration. Thus in course of time in the new country its people come to find their orchards and vineyards dying out. The people then £0 to looking for the cause, as we will do here They conclude that, "if we are going to have orchards we must take care of them.'* - Soma lead- out and take core of their trees; and come to have the satisfaction of seeing * them do doing - ing doing well, and they also make their profit out of them. Then others follow, and the* titae comes (in a country that is adapted to fruit raising)? that we finally have' our beautiful and profitable orchards, we WilV yet'have in fhii larid. -» -: i - Yours truly,' '* ' *' ' ' v ' C. 8.
