very large crops of alfalfa corn, barley, flax.rais, wheat, sugar cane, rich and sweet potatoes, beans and all kinds of garden truck. All the above named articles has actually been grown by old fertilizer now in the valley is the opening up of a farm by this school would not be an experiment clouded with the uncertainty of success. The prices of all farm and garden produce is very high here and commands a ready market. Our climate is such that crops can be produced every month in the years. There has been but one in the history of the Past (30yrs) that ice has formed over still water a quarter of an inch in thickness. Frosts are seldom known. Wheat sown in November is gathered by the 1st of June. I have seen wheat raised by the Indians without any cultivation whatever grows four feet high and laden with white plump seeds.
