THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY MORNING, JANUARY 1, 1920
STOCK m RANGES
IN GOOD COIITIOil
Aitboush nights have been cool.
Peasant daytime temperatures and an
abundance of sunshine over the entire
district have been favorable for live
stock f all kinds. The fnow has cHs-
I'tJcuired almost entirely from the
MrMongr ranges of Ariozna and weat
etixNew Mexico, making: available an
abundance .of excellent pasture. Prac
tically no feeding; is being done except
in small herds where range is some
what limited. Stock conditions over
the northeast plateau where last year
grass was short and the range over
grazed are reported by our correspond
ent as 'good, plenty of grass and
water."
Livestock conditions on the Apache
Indian reservation continue good, cattle
and horses there reported as doing fine.
Thousands of sheep and goats are win
tering in the Congress Junction sec
tion of Arizona and are in most satis
factory condition.
Cotton picking made satisfactory
progress during the week and is rapidly
nearing its end. Those in a position
to know state that picking is fully six
weeks in advance - of - last year and
ginning the same. The early comple
tion of picking will be of decided ad
vantage to farmers, enabling them to
prepare for the coming season.

Last night, at the end of the s-ecor.d
day of the trial of the damage suit of
M. Joe Murphy against H. A. Gray for
$10,000 for malicious prosecution, the
jury brought in a verdict for the plain
tiff fr $'00. This is the outgrowth of
a dispute which arose at the time of
the dog show at the state fair of two
years ago. The defendant was super
intendent of the dog exhibit, the plain
tiff a prominent member and officer
of the kennel club.
Gray charged Murphy with embez
zling certain of the funds of the club,
a quantity" of dog biscuit and trophies
of the Moose lodge, and brought a civil
suit to recover. That was dismissed
and suits for damage were instituted
by Murphy against Gray and A. II.
Fitz, one of the organizers of the ken
nel club. The action against F"itz was
disposed of by settlement last October.

SUPERVISORS ALSO
SEEK UNION DEPOT
"Whereas, the war is now over,"
begins one paragraph of a set of reso
lutions passed yesterday by the board
of supervisors, "the citizens of Phoenix
and the commercial organizations of
the city and county believe the time
has arrived for extensive improve
ments and betterments io be carried
out bv the railroads entering Phoenix."
It was then set farth that a union
depot should be built in the .city. The
resolution was similar in tone to those
already passed . by the chamber of
commerce.

Many of those whom we advised to order irrigation equipment last summer if they wanted it
in time for spring planting now are offering us all kinds of inducements to make installations
and are sorely disappointed because we cannot do so.
We are sorry too, but we absolutely cannot help it. We are taxed to our capacity with orders
pouring in all the time. Another disappointment is in store for those who do not order NOW
for installations in time for next season's work.
Again We Advise You ORDER NOW
For Installation Next Fall
