ARIZONA RANKS 5TH
IN LAND AREA

Arizona ranks fifth in land area
and forty-sixth in. population
among the states of continental
United States, according to the
thirteenth census bulletin.
The southwestern portion OF
Arizona ranges from an altitude
Of approximately $50 feet above
sea level along the lower course
of the Colorado river to gener-
al elevation of approximately
1000 feet in the desert plains,
with attitudes in excess of 1000
feet in the mountain ridges which
cross these plains from the north
west to southeast. The northern
and northeastern parts consist
of a high plateau ranging in al
titude from 1000 to 5000 feet
above sea level, with over 1000
feet. the average. elevation OF
Arizona above sea level is APP
proximately 400 feet, wit h
comparatively little below an al
titude of $500 feet.
Southern and southwest Ari-
zona, lying within the extremely
arid southwestern portion of
the United States, consists of
board desert plains interspered
with nearly parallel mountain
ranges of considerable elevation
having a general northwestern
and southeastern trend. T he
floors of the desert plains ar e
made up of gravelly and sandy
detrituS washed down from the
mountains, together with sandy
loan, loan and adobe soils in
the vicinity of theI arge streams
or in the centers of the basinlike
plains.
The plateru country isextreme
" varied in its surface confgura-
tion an in it's soils. Extenive
areas of the plateau consists of
high mesas overlooking lower
plains an deep valleys and bound
ed Of abrupt escarpments and
canyons, the greatest of which,
the Grand Canyon. has been cut
out by the Colorado river. The
soils of this region are formed
principally from a variety of un-
derlying rock through surface
weatherlng.
In the western half of Arizona
the annual precipitation ranges
from one to ten inches, and in
Ethe eastern half from ten to
twenty-five inches. Irrigation is
necessary to the groth of crops
in the low Valleys, but on the
high plains some crops grow
without it.
Between 1900 and 1910 there
was an increase of81, ,423, or66..
2 per cent, in population, and in
increase Of 3418, or 58:S percent
in the number of farms. The
total farm acreage, however, de-
creased 6SS, ia, or 35 6 per
cent. while the acreage of i'm
proved land increased 50, ,652, or
81 6 per cent.
Farm property, which includes
land, buildings, implements
anG machinery, and livestock
domestic animals, poultry, and
5ees) has increased in value dur
ing decade $45, 100000, or $50
3 per cent. Land alone increased
in. valve 271 per cent in t'he e
value of implements and machin-
cry, 117.8 per centin that Of
buildings, and 67 6 per cent III
that of livestock. In considering
the increase of values in agricul
ture to the general increase in
the prices of all commodities in
the last ten years should be
borne in mind.
