CENSUS BUREAU
Issues Statistics on Agriculture in
 the United States.

The census bureau has issued a bulletin giving the condition of agriculture in the United States for 1900. It shows there was at that time 5,739, 657 farms in the entire country, which were val ued at S16, ,674, ,694, 247. Of this amount $3, 560, 195, 991, or over .21 per cent, represented the value of the buildings, and S14, : III, 492, ,016, or over 76 per cent, represented the value of land and improvements other than buildings. The value of farm implements and machinery was $7G1, 261, $50, and of live stock $5, ,O78, ,050,041. Those values, added to the value of the farms, gives a total value of farm prop erty amounting to $20, ,514, ,001, : 838.
 The total value of farm prod ucts for the year 1899 is given at $4, 739, 118, 762, of which amount Sf, ,718, ,990,22l was for animal products, including live stock, poultry and bee products.
 The bulletin places the aver age size of farms in the United States at 146 acres, and it is stated that 49 per cent of the farm land is improved. The total acreage for the entire country was 841, ,201, 546.
 Census statistics for Arizona show there are in the territory ,, ,806 farms, with a total of l. 935, 237 acres, of which 254, 521 are improved. The owners of 1,769 of these farms are Indians, IS are Chinese and 16 are ne grOes.
 The number of acres irrigated outside reservations is 185, 396, the total increase in the ten years being 199, 575 acres The present average value of irrigat- ed land, according to the bull letin, is at a low estimate S30 per acre, or s, 287, ,250. Of the B. 8O6 farms in the territory, APO are irrigated.

FIRST MOVE UNDER
 IRRIGATION LAW.

If this be the purpose of the action taken by the government it is one of the most important steps made of late in the devel- opment of the arid southwest, and will be watched with great interest. There are said to be many prospective settlers in the excluded region now, who will probably be taken unawares by the new order and disappointed for the present in their inten tions of claiming the land.
 The California lands with drawn by the order are the fol lowing townships: One north, 24 east, $. B. M.; 1,3, 1, , north, 25 east; l, ?, 3, north, 26 east; ? north, 27 east; 1 to Is south, inclusive; g, g, 24 east; 9 to F south, inclusive; 21 east.

Very respectfully,
 MILTON R. MOORE,
Register.


 The townships described above lie along the Colorado river from Norton's Landing to the Mexican boundary line.
 A similar order has been re- ceived by the land office at Los Angeles, withdrawing thirty townships on the California side lying along the Colorado river, reaching from about twenty miles south of Needles to the Gulf coast and Mexican line, a distance of more than 125 miles.
 Register CrookShank says that without doubt this is the first move made by the government in the west, pursuant to the na tional irrigation law just passed. The California land involved ex- tends in double row of town ships along the Colorado rlver, in the locality named, and will probably be developed for irri- gation without delay, as will the Arizona lands, also, and under the new system subsequently, thrown open to homeSteaders.

By the following official letter from the United States land of fee at Tucson it will be seen that the first movement under the new irrigation law is now being made. The officials of that office have received an order from Washington, under authority of the secretary of the interior, withdrawing eight townships on the Arizona side of the Colorado river from entry or settlement. The letter follows:
 Editor Sentinel.
 Sir:-Please call attention of public to the fact that the Honor able Secretary of the Interior has isSue1anordertemporarily with drawing from settlementor other disposition under the public land laws the following townships:

'.lncreased Assessments" "

In last weeks issue of the Sun appeared a vOluminous, twelve column story, entitled Increased Assessments" It is as hard to understand as a Chinese puzzle or what the brakeman says when he calls out the stations. The board of supervisors may have known what they were doing in preparing that story, but it is absolutely certain that few oth- CTS will be able to understand it without an interpreter. It is d cOrker. The clerk of the board informs the Sentinel that the list of "Increased Assessments" as published in the Sun is meant to indicate the assessments as they now stand, but which will be raised by the board at it's meeting beginning on the third Monday m August.
 Through sheer ignorance and extravaganza on the part of the board, the county finances are in a depleted condition and the honorable board is thus com pelled to increase the taxes to raise funds to meet the county's obligations,

The Florence Blade seems to be afflicted with an overdose of prunes. It demands eXcitedly to know if we do not know that "the irrigation of the Colorado or Mohave desert either one would be a death blow to Yuma and her prosperity?" The Senti- nel cannot tell lie, Thomas we do not know anything of the kind. If Yuma's prosperity is dependent upon those deserts re- maining barren, sun baked wastes instead of being converted into fertile fields, then indeed does "Yuma and her prosperity" rest upon an insecure foundation. But we WOt not. The trouble with the Blade is that it's versa tile imagination leads it to the conclusion that every locality that is fighting for benefits under the national irrigation law is at the same time opposing the San Carlos proposition. The Blade lambasts the Phoenix papers for their efforts to secure a reservoir for the irrigation of Salt River valley lands. Every locality must look to it's own interests, and the Blade should concede that privilege to others which it claims for it's own people and locality.

Speaking for the benefit of young politi- clans, he said: "Never give any one the right to say that you have broken your word to him.
