For TWO weer. eadlns Aprn ssa, lso4

For two weeks eading April sSd, 1894,
 The conditions which have prevailed during the past two weeks have not differed greatly from what was report ed in the last bulletin from this office.
 The temperatures have apparently averaged slightly below normal In most sections.
 few cloudy and partly cloudy days probably reduced the percentage of clear weather somewhat below the nor maj,
 But little rain was reported. Ia this connection it may be stated that the period under consideration is 6 part of what is ordinarily the drisst portion of the yerr in this Territory. The months having the least average precipitation arc April, Mny aud June. The normal rainfall for April being less than five per cent of the annual average. it will be seen that the present season is not an unusual one in this respect.
 Cultivated vegetation of all kinds be- ing dependent on the artificial applica- ton of water, the absence of rain at this time of the year affords no special ground for apprehension, although rain would De very beneficial, especially to the ranges.
 Nearly all reports that have been re- ceiyed indicate that the conditions are mainly satisfactory.
 At Yuma strawberries have been in the market for more than week. The first crop of alfalfa was ready for cut ting at various places in Yuma county several days ago. The orange crop of that section promises well and crops of all kinds gre in excellent condition.
 In the Salt river valley the conditions reported are gratifying; the outlook for fruit of all kinds is particularly promising. Orange trees are nearly done blooming and the fruit is setting well. Almond trees are loaded with nuts nearly full grown and the crop will be very large. The cutting of al- falfa has begun and the crop is estima- |
 ted to be one of the largest ever pro duced in that section.
 In Yayapai county the indications are for a full crop of fruit The ranges are suffering for want of rain. 1 Graham county reports are that all grain crops and alfalfa are growing finely.
