There have been no recent snow storm in the northern section and, unlike ranges in many of the northern states, all pas tures are free from snow. Nights hare been, cool, but there has been no high wind to interfere with the comfort of animals. Both range and stock In the Grand Canyon district are reported as being in good condition. Cattle In the Pinto district are looking well,, range Is fair and water plentiful. Borne shipments to market are being made from Seligman. While the range is poor and stock only fair In the neigh borhood of Thatcher, supplementary feed in that section is plentiful and the stock need not suffer. Near Ruby, in Santa Cruz county, the range is very poor and steers have been sold or were hipped to other points for grass. In localities where grass is good is range is heavily overstocked. In the Nogales section stock are In good condition, but prospects for winter feed are poor The range in the Douglas section continues to be fairly good. Absence of storms and the presence of generally mild dayllgnt temperatures have favored fall seeding and vne com pletion of harvest in dry land sections . i. . A T . 1 . 1 .t . is reported that it Is too dry for fall plowing .that gravity water Is scarce and pumping is too expensive. The weather of the past week has been favorable for cotton picking and excel lent progress has been made consider ing tBa labor situation, which, however, is not acute. A drive through cotton growing sections reveals a number of fields practically untouched by pickers. Gins are fully stocked up and running to their full capacity and a moderate amount of cotton is stored on farms. - o . DOLL HON TO BE US PRESENT H. O.
