Crop Report.
U. S. DEPT OF AGRICULTURE,

Arizona Weather Service for the
 week ending July 10, 1893.
 The temperature the past week ap- pears to have been about normal Tn all sections of the territory.
 Good local rains fell in the southern and southeastern portions of the ter ritory; but the precipitation was, on the whole, considerably deficient, and was very unequally distributed. DCloudy and threatening conditions prevailed during a considerable DOT tion of the week, and from the indi- cations afforded by the increased quan- titles of water in the San Pedro, Santa Cruz and other streams, it seems prob able that a great deal more rain fell than is indicated by the actual meas urements reported by observers.
 Following are the reports from cor respondents:
 Yuma. Yuma county: Weather ben eticial to all kinds of crops. Grapes are being shipped to Los Angeles, san Francisco. and other points in Califor- mia: and to Denver, Kansas City St. Louis. Chicago, New York and Bos- ton, and to Ohio. Watermelons and muskmelons are shipped to California Ey the carload Third crop of alfalfa iscut: crop pexcellent-24 tons peracre. New alfalfa yielded one ton per acre six weeks from date of sowing the seed. Date palms are full of fruit, large ard fine; largest ever seen here. Fruit trees look splendid. Oranges, lemons and Hines never looked as well as at tie present time.
 Phoenix, Maricopa county; far all fruit trees have done well. Oranges are locking fine and the trees have made satisfactory growth. Second crop of figs are ripening. Water still very low. Third crop of alfalfa light; first two crops very heavy, averaging two tons per acre.
 Glendale, Maricopa county; The past week has been little warmer than the week before. There are no crops growing now except alfalfa fruit and garden truck. Fruit Is ripening very nicely, Water is scarce, and alfalfa IS net doing much.
 Greateryille, Pima county: line rain on the 9th made the canons run About one inch fell, Crops at Gard ner's are looking fine.
 St. Helena Ranche. Pima county; The week has been cloudy, with heavy local showers. Corn planted on the 4th inst. is comingaup nicely, Grass has started nicely on the ranges. Rains have been heavy sOuohcast of this station.
 Arizola, Pinal county: Everything in the crop line is progressing fayora- bly,. Ranchers are beginning to irri- gate for the third crop of alfalfa. With seven and onc-half feet of wa ter in the reservoir there is sufficient assnred for two more crops. if not three.
 Bryce Graham county; Light show CTS on the 9th, 9th. and sth. It looks like it has been raining in the noun. tainS.
 Tombstone. Cochise county; The drouth continued till July 3d, when tlicrc was a heavy rainfall along the upper San Pedro. Since then there has been heavy rain generally over this section. The past week shows the highest temperature known for this region. There are Eo crops cx- cept along the san Pedro irrigated, now cut and being cut for hay. Cows with calves looking poor and dying.

JOHN c. RUSSELL, of McCook P. O.,
Red Willow county, Nebraska, being
duly sworn, deposes and says: 1 live on
section II, township 3, range 20, three
miles from McCook, Nebraska: that my
corn crop for 1892, raised on said farm,
yielded 80 bushels per acre of better corn
than I ever raised or saw grown in Iowa.
1 rented some adjoining prairie land in
1892, which 1 agreed to break for two
years crops from same. In the spring of
1892 I broke out and planted to broom
corn Is acres which when marketed
yielded ME $254, after all expenses were
paid, being $I4.II per acre which 1 got
for breaking the land, and the land is
now in fine condition for another years
crop, which I get without rent. 1 have
rented considerable land in Iowa and
al say from experience that there is
much more profit in renting land here
than in the east, and a still better profit
in buying land here at from IS to $I2 per
acre than renting any place.

McCooK. NEB., JAN. Io, 1893.
DEAR FRIEND arrived here with
my three car loads of stock and goods
in fine shape. Was greatly surprised to
find the ground bare and roads so fine,
and such nice weather, there having
been a heavy snow on the ground when
l left Lake City, Iowa. / find there has
been only from a to s inches of snow
here this winter, and there is but little
frost in the ground now. l am more ia
worldly impressed with the country now
than when here before. There can be
no finer farm land found than here, and
the vast amount of corn piled all over
the prairie will vouch for its productive
ness. When l first read the description
of Southwestern Nebraska, with prices
of land written by S. H. Colvin, of
McCook, Red Willow county, Nebraska,
l believed it too greatly exaggerated;
but I did lave faith enough to come
and see the country, and am no ready
to confirm the statement of the country
as made in the circular, and believe that
Mr.. Colvin has underestimated it in
many particulars.
| have bought myself a fine $40 acre
farm and will go to farming in earnest
this spring. l never saw SO fine laying
land for farming, where the yield per
acre IS SO great, and you can buy the
land at from $40 to SIS per acre. This
IS a good location to rent land, as you
can get one-third of all the crop, and in
many cases get two crops for breaking
the land. Corn is yielding heavy and
this is a fine country to feed stock. ]
am sorry that all the farmers in the east
cannot see this country, as I am satisfied
there are many who are giving a heavy
rent that could owl homes here and get
all the crop. I find that the price of
land is advancing, and in a short time
the cheap land will all be gone.
Hoping my farmer friends will be in
terested enough to visit Southwestern
Nebraska, I remain,
Very truly yours,
R, P, BARR.
