Arizona prides itself on having some
of the greatest natural attractions in
the world, and much has been done
during the year to attract attention
to these. The result has been that the
largest number of people in the history
of the territory have paid visits to the
scenic wonder Of the world. the Grand
canyon of the Colorado in northern
Arizona, the petrified forests, the most
extensive in the world at Adamana and
HOlbroOS: the numerous cliff dwellings,
throughout northern Arizona. and the
great Roosevelt dam, 40 miles from
Phoenix, the greatest artificial dam IN
the world, reached by one of the most
magnificent scenic rOadways on the
continent
Highway Development.
To attract people to the state to see
these wonders as well as to develop
the state itself. the work of building
the Arizona system Of highways has
continued and much progress has been
made, most of the work being done BY
convict labor. A comprehensive general
sections of the state is being adhered
to.
As showing the spirit Of the people
of Arizona, there has never been a
worlds fair at which the territory was
not creditably represented with mag
nificent display of its wonderful re-
sources, and annually the state apprO-
state fair which brings the people to-
gether from all over the commonwealth
and attracts many from afar- This is
held at Phoenix each year, and exhibits
from every county and community IN
the state are shown.

business condition was also better. All
Arizona postOffices showed an increase
at the end of the past fiscal year. over
the previous year, which was itself
the highest on record, and the same
general good conditions were shown
in business.
Steady Progress Everywhere.
ThOeniX, the capital during the pres
Cnt year, paved all of its principal
business streets and witnessed the cree
tiOn of several magnificent business
buildings
The new state officials were inaugu-
rated early in the year and Arizona
then automatically became the 49th
state in the union and completed a solid
ing continental territory to be admit
ted to statehood. AS was generally
believed. development has been more
rapid under a state government than 1t
was under q territorial administration,
because of the added attractions that
statehood offer to the investor, and this
is said without reflection upon the ter
ritorial administration, for il was
economical and resulted in many eX-
tensive improvements for the state.
State institutions Improve.
improvements have been made in al
most all Of the state institutions dur
ing the past year, including the addition
o: substantial buildings at the univer-
s;ty at Tucson, the completion of the
rev penitentiary at Florence, and the
addition of many substantial improve
ments to the insane asylum at Phoenix,
the normal school at Tempe and the
normal at Flagstaff.
During the year work of transform
ing old Fort Grant into an Industrial
school for incOrrigible boys and girls
was begun. The pupils will soon be

rigation if the power is reasonable in

The cultivated area in the Salt river
valley has been increased very largely
during the year as a result of the
completion of this project, and a con-
sentative estimate is that over 200, 900
acres will be irrigated by the Roose-
welt project. An electric line to con-
meet the city of Phoenix with the town
Of Glendale has been completed and
other transportation projects are under
way as a natural result of the rapid
progress of the people in this rich val

The United States government is con-
Quoting an experiment station in the
valley to give the farmers information
as to the best crops to grow and the
best methods to handle them. and it
already has given them much valuable
information. The government encour-
aged the growing of the date palm,
which thrives in the Salt River valley
as IN no other region in the United
States. and one of the developments Of
the year has been a large increase in

=RANcHER FARM SUCCESSFULLY

.ar. I'd u 81
Grand Forks. Jan. 17.That a sue
cessful rancher can be equally sue
cessful as a farmer is amply shown
in the case of C. P. Burnstad of Logan
county. Mr.. Burnstad has been one
of the prominent ranchers of the state
and the encroachment Of farmers on
his once vast free range lead to the
experiment last season in farming.
According to the Napoleon Home
stead, the rancher cropped - acres
of the old Morgan ranch to oats. The
total yield was 4,o1s bushels of fine
oats, or a yield of 80 bushels to the
acre. In all Mr.. Burnstad farmed 12o
acres and proposes next year to ma ma
terially increase this acreage.

OVER TON or PARCELS POST

Grand Forks, Jan. 1.-THE north
west record for parcels post ship
ments on January and the first day
when it was possible to take full ad-
vantage of the new service, was set
by North Dakota city. One ship
ment alone from Grand Forks con-
sisted of 1000 pounds of tea and cof-
fee. All told there were nearly 800
parcels mailed at Grand Forks on
January End, and this figure exceeds
that of Chicago, the home of the mail
order houses, where about 200 par
cells were sent by the parcels post. 1t
is expected that North Dakota merch-
ants generally will take advantage Of
the opportunities offered by the new
department to compete with the east

Grand Forks, Jan. .17.-Expressing
confidence in the plan of the Better
Farming Association and satisfaction
with the results of ,. the first years
work, Director Thomas P. Cooper is
just issuing his first annual report.
Proof sheets often received by the
Better Farming Special Service Blu
reau at Grand Forks show that in adj
dition to dealing. with the results of
the associations work. Mr.. Cooper
has dealt in an interesting manner
with the agricultural situation in
North Dakota. Speaking of "the
iproblem" he says: Briefly, the basic
agricultural, problems confronting the
work of this association may be clas-
sified as, first, the maintenance Of the
fertility of, the soil, involving new
cropping systems and the use Of live
stock; second, the introduction and
general use Of new economic crops,
such as cloyers, alfalfa, winter, grains,
and corn; third, the business reorgan-
ization of the farm for greater profits;
fourth, the farm home, its surround ID:
ings, and the social features that per
tain, to "a progressive and contented
rural population. f.,.T 5s s.. ,5,s,
The, results of =. the -, associations AS s
work he summarized as follows: 81 !
4 The. years work has proven that
the method of organization and forms
of work adopted by the association
are effective; that farmers are ready
to cooperate along lines that prom;
Use results, and that many people find
use for a district or county agricul-
turist who is in position to give def
mite advice and help.
