The grazing problem swings back and forth with the regularity of pendulum. First the range is good and the stock grower promptly oyerstocks 1t and wears it out. When the range Is gone, a slight drought comes and his cattle die for lack of nourlshment, then the range has a chance again. Cattlemen are learning, however, that overstock- ing of a range will not do, and after while the matter will be ad- lusted l am more familiar with conditions in Arizona than ia New Mexico, but if your losses here during the recent drought were as heavy as they were in Arizona, they were enormous.

 Stockman: Horses from the northern counties are now being brought to the Salt river valley to be placed on pasture for the winter months. Cattlemen of the north find this | profitable investment, as their saddle horses are taken back to the range fresh and fat in the spring, ready for the work of the range which would not be the case were they left out all winter. To feed is considerably more ex- pensive than to pasture on alfalfa in this valley.
 Range News: Dry weather pre- vailed over the greater part of Ari- zona during October. though in some sections, notably the south eastern counties, fair to good rains fell occasionally during the month. At many places there was no rain fall in excess of trace. The yield of wild nay, produced by the rains of the latter part of the sum- mer, was generally good, but in a few localities it is less then was expected and less than the average of preceding years. In parts of Yavapai and Cochise counties the ranges are reported not to De in very good condition while at Globe, Gila county, the grass though plen- tiful, appears to be less nutritious than usual. In the main, how ever, the ranges throughout the territory are in very fine condition and the feed of good quality. The luxuriant growth of grass produced by the rains of the latter part of the summer, has been cured nicely as nay by the drier weather of De- tober and the latter part of Sept ember, and the supply of feed for the coming winter appears to be ample if there IS sufficient rain or snow to maintain an adequate sup ply of stock water throughout the feeding area and prevent the con centration of stock between limited areas. At present the supply of stock water is generally adequate. In few localities stock is reported to be only in fair condition, but generally 1t is in fine condition. Many cattle are fat enough to be put on the market for beef. Sheep are moving southward from Coco nino county.
