 MT. Frank Fogle offers some rather surprising information in regard to the hay crop and shipping this year. He says there is more hay on the south side now than there ever was before. the great shipping iii the early part of the year to tLe contrary. Most of the hay shipped this year was grain hay, of which there was more than ever before and practically all the alfalfa is left. MT. Eogie estimates that there are 14,000 head of cattle on the south side, which is but 5000 less than there were feeding ill the pastures last win ter, when the highest number in the history of the south side was there. He does not expect that many cattle this winter by any means, but the hay, he thinks, will all go out of the valley Eefore spring at good prices, as Cali VIII Etcu IL 1uu 5lCdl uCoi k more. Putting this prospect together with the just as bankable prospect that cattle will advance still more this winter. 1t is very gratifying to think or the coming winter. There is still another elelnent which enters into the calculation oJ this winters business of the valley. The valley and Arizona have been advertised far and wide this year through several general agencies. The fact that California is suffering fron, famine in hay and that this valley to large extent shut out its compelitfrs who tried to relieve the shortage, has brought the valley into the eyes of the business world. The unprecedented oppressive hot summer has driven ont greater number of people to different parts Of the United States, whc naturally loyal to the country they nailed from. sang its praises continually bringing it before tire notice Of the lovers of a fine win ter climate. The manner in which Arizona mas conducted herself in the Spanish American war will have nc small influence in bringing about feeling for ti:a territory for the bette; with all classes. There is no doubt that Arizona and tho Salt River valley h9va besn advertised and this winter 7Ttil de-cr5tr2te q, te-tt tt7t ,' ! lays to advertise Ii Tempe e. gel
