THE WEEK’S ROUND-UP
Of Interesting Cattle Notes From All
Parts of the Range.
Pinal Record: Many new and heavy
cattle owners are looking at the country
in eastern Yavapai and western Apache
counties with a view of purchasing and
early stocking that section.
Tucson Index: The Hamey Bros., of
the California Cattle Company, have
taken 100 tons of pipping and 50 tons of
batbed wire to their new ranch in the
Barboquivaris. The pipe is to be used
to convey water from Arivaca.
Clifton Clarion: Mrs. Moore and
Robertson, of the Coronado ranch, were
in town last week for supplies. They
say that the grazing in their section has
become so excellent from recent rains
that one can see the cattle growing
fat.
Florence Enterprise: Mr. Thomas
Glenn, of Mammoth, was here this week
attending the Democratic Convention in
the capacity of delegate. He says the
San Pedro ranges are looking well since
the rains.
St. Johns Herald: Reports from the
ranches all agree that the grass is fine and
the prospect of good winter range better
at present in Apache county than has
been known for the last five years.
The rainfall still continues and the Little
Colorado is carrying off an immense quan
tity of water. Even the usually barren
hills around St. Johns now afford excel
lent pasturage, and vegetation is so rapid
that one almost imagines the growth
lengthens out perceptibly before the eye
sight
Mr. C. W. White thinks the dressed
meat combination at Chicago has not a
little to do with the low priec of beef, and
that the most effectual way to break it up
would be to start counter combinations in
the west and southwest; in other words:
to “fight the devil with fire.” Readers of
this paper will observe that this accords
with its ideas of the everlasting correct
ness of things.—Texas Stockman.

The uniform success which has rewarded
attempts to secure artesian wells in wes
tern Texas offers the true solution of the
water problem for this vast region which
only needs efficient moisture to make its
lands of great xalue The great flow
at Pecos City, in the heart of the plains,
short s what can be done. Water is scarce
on the surface, but there is an inexhausted
store beneath, and it sends out young
rivers whenever it is tapped.—Colorado
Clipper.
All veteran ranchman declare 10 acres
of pasture necessary for a cow, applied
generally to the range sections of this
state, and yet one of the best informed
ranchmen but recently said that he was
satisfied that there were not now five
acres to a cow. This would indicate
heavy overstocking or a great underrat
ing of the capacity of the land As grass
beeves are constantly going to market, it
is probably as much the latter as the
former.—Texas Journal.
The generous, gentle showers which
have been vouchsafed to the people of
Southern Arizona during the past few
weeks past caused joy and gladness to
linger in hearts where, but a short time
since, doubt, despondency and dread
found a resting place. The cattle, iipm
a thousand hills, seem to defy adversity
and look as if they had been pastured in
green fields new by the valley of the Nile.
The outlook is propitiously promising and
all is well. —Clifton Clarion.
Fifty years ago the average weight of
beef cattle sold in the Eastern markets
was 800 pounds, but now it is 1400
pounds. This increase is due to the
introduction of thoroughbred stock,
breeding and better feeding.
