WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.

For the Week Ending July 25, 1904.
 The drouth in Arizona has at last been broken. Skowery conditions pre- vailed generally throughout the terri tory during the past week, and fair to heavy sh overs occurred over almost every part of the territory a some time during the week. The showers were generally of a local nature, however, and a few localities received but little rain. The flow of water in streams was largely increased and the supply of irrigation water was temporarily abuNdant. Tn Maricopa county, how ever, it has again diminished consider ably. The weather has been generally warm during the week. High humid ity prevailed also. and tended to in- crease the beneficial effects of the showers. In some sections crops were already too much injured by drouth to be benefited by the rains, but where this is not the case the crops generally will be improved, and especially in the northern part of the territory. There will be renewed activity in the plant ing of late crops. Tn the lower Colo rado valley all crops are still fine. The planting of late crops is in progress in
 that section, and good fourth crop oi alfalfa is ready for harvest In the northern part of the territory grain is rlpening, and some has been harvested

TEMPE
WATER.

The farmers are busy irrigating Throughout the Tempe valley and we have evidence now that they are do- ing a good job. When the road gets wet for bllf a mile at stretch the sign for q sufficiency of water is first class. The water has the fertilizlng quality as one can detect from the smell. It IS difficult now to tell whe- ther 1000 inches mixed from the pump ing plant would have any effect on diluting the water in the Tempe canal. Prof. Forbes of the University is au- thority for stating that the Salt river carries an annual average of S500,0O0 wouJh of fer tilizer. Some of tka present supply is so full Of fertilizer that the buzzards perch in phe fields and hunt for the location of the smell. The dead fish mixed with all sorts of debris from the mountain side gives rise to the odor. Some object to the mud sometimes, but we have the first objector yet to hear from now. The only objection nov is not enough mud dy water.

In some localities a second crop of all rllfa is almost ready to be cut. Car dens and potatoes were generally im- proved by the rains. The benefits Of the rains of the past week will be most largely felt by the cattle interests, which had already sustained large losses on account of the drouth. IL is believed that the losses are now at an end, unless further drouth should en- sue. New growth of grass has already started on the ranges in many local ities. Cattle are moving from those localities where feed has been exhaust ed. to other localities where feed has not been exhausted but where water is now to be had.
