BemOaning Their
HaSty Conclusions

Western wool growers who
contracted their clip early this
year are now bemoaning the fact.
The wool market has been on the
upgrade all season, and some of
the f1ockmasters who accepted
last years prices early will re-
ceive two to five cents less per
pound than buyers are now pay
ing. 1t is estimated that be-
tween 55,000,000 and 60, 900, 600
pounds of wool have been con-
tracted this season. The clips
were contracted at various prices,
but it is probably that growers
who sold the wool on the sleeps
back have lost thousands of dol
lars in the aggregate. That buy
ers had no difficulty in persuading
many sheepmen to sell their wool
early is not surprising when the
uncertainty over the market after
the removal of duties is taken in
to consideration. Western sheep
men were also influenced by the
fact that practically no contract
ing was done last year, when
prices on wool failed to improve
as the spring advanced. AS sheep
have been advancing lately with
wool, producers and feeders are
happier than at any other time in
months. The season as a whole
has not been profitable for feed
ers, however, the corn belt states
Iowa particularly, having absorb
ed too many thin lambs at high
figures last fall.

Arizona Crop is Largest
Says Mr.. w. Babbitt

''The lamb crop this spring
was exceptionally large, and with
favorable range conditions, the
newborn animals were saved
and all are now doing we'll, +" said
w. Babbit of Flagstaff, Arizona,
TO a Drovers Telegram represent
ative in Kansas City last Monday.
Mr.. Babbitt is a member of the
ranch firm of Babbitt Bros, big
operators in both sheep and cat
tie. Mr.. Babbitt then explained
that lambing in that country oc-
Cured earlier than in any other
mountain range district in the
West. Flockmasters bring all
their sheep down in the fall and
hold them in the deserts till after
lambing.
"A considerable amount of
wool has been sold," added Mr..
Babbitt. And the range of
prices is just a little higher than
last year, which is appreciated
by sheep owners who had antici-
pated a lower market. The pros
poets for good mountain range
feed is favorable, so when the
focks go back to the mountains
they will be in good condition,
and fare we'll on the government
reserves.
so far as cattle are concern
ed they are doing well, and we
look for a good season. In that
country we never sell young cat
tie, but hold them till they are at
least three years old. The calf
crop was large, and branding will
take place next month. There
seems to be a strong demand for
steers this spring. Many have
gone to the Pacific coast, and a
large number to the Imperial val
| ley in Southern California. At
the latter place they are fattened
on alfalfa for butchering purpos-
es. Many Mexican cattle have
been imported, but an increase
of $5 per head in the duty on the
Mexican side has put a check on
the traffic. /"

Bayless. Mr.. Jamison has taken
immediate possession. The sale
included 5000 sheep. The con-
sideration was not made public,

Hon. Carl Hayden'S
New Irrigation Bill

hon. Cdfl f1ayQon, or Arizona,
has introduced bill (H.R. 1928
to revise and amend the Carey
Act. The original Act was passed
in 1894 and has been amended in
number of particulars since
that time, but, owing to the fail
ure of the Carey Act reclamation
projects, there has been a grow
ing demand for a general revision
of this important branch of the
national irrigation law. The chief
obstacle in the way at present is
a general lack of confidence on
account of the past failures result
ing in inability to secure financial
backing. The settlers under a
number of the projects have suff-
cred great losses on account of
the delay in constructing the
irrigation works, so that it is also
necessary that confidence be re-
stored in the minds of prospective
homeseekers on the arid lands of
the West.
The Hayden bill provides for
more strict supervision both on
behalf of the State and the United
States with respect to the feast
bility of proposed irrigation pro-
jects, thus protecting both the
investor and the settler. The bill
reduces the area that may be
acquired by any one person from
160 to 80 acres and requires actu-
al residence on the land for two
years, and the cultivation of one
half of the irrigable area of the
entry before patent can issue.
The settler is further protected
by a provision which prohibits
the sale or entry of land until
water is available for it's irriga-
ton.
The difference between the
reclamation law and the Carey
Act is that under the first named
law the money to construct the
irrigation is furnished by the
United States through the re-
clamation fund while under the
Carey Act the public lands are
donated to the states and the
irrigation works are constructed
under the supervision of the
states from the bonds secured
by a lien on the irrigation lands.
The bill by Senator Smith Of
Arizona, to extend the time OF
payment on the Government
reclamation projects from ten to
twenty years, which has passed
the Senate, will furnish relief to
the settlers residing on the two
million acres irrigated from the
projects constructed under the
reclamation law. The passage of
the Hayden bill is necessary in
order to complete the revision of
the federal laws relating to
irrigation and will make it pos
sible to irrigate large areas of
land that are now in a desert
condition. The reclamation fund
is exhausted so that it's necessary
to provide a means whereby
private capital will be encouraged
to enter into irrigation enter
prises.
The Department of the Interior
has declined to make report on
the bills introduced by Senator
Smith and Congressman Hayden
opening the Colorado River
Indian Reservation to settlement
under the te ms and condition OF
the Carey Act for the reason that
the present Carey law is in much

movaI of the meats tariff to open
nn 70 them a profitable business

Congress went ahead more or
locc blindly and removed the tar
a The contention was that it
would mean cheaper meats to the
American public, but that pre-
diction of our statesmen at WASH
ircton has failed to materialize.
There has been, however, a de-
cidedly bearish undertone pre-
vailing in the market for home
raised cattle practically ever
since the tariff came off.
Congress made a mistake when
the meats tariff was removed.
+ has benefited thus far only
the interests which wholesale
beef in this country, and what it
will do later can only be guessed
at, but a reasonably good guess
would be that free meats
will not benefit the consumer,
but will have some effect in hurt
ing the producer.
Now comes the department of
agriculture announcement that
we are receiving about 5000, 600
pounds of Argentine beef a
month from Argentine. We are
also informed that of the nine
big meat concerns in the Argen-
tine, five of them are the proper
ties of Chicago companies. The
government also states that while
it had supposed that Argentina
beef would cause a reduction in
the prices for beef in the United
States, it is not assumed that
the American controlled compan-
les in Argentina are using the
Argentina beef to beat down the
prices of Chicago beef"
A little investigation by con-
greSSlonal committees into the
ownership of the Argentina beef
interests, prior to the removal of
the tariff, might have resulted
IN a tariff arrangement at least
equitable to the American pro-
ducer.
AS 1t is now the chief benef-
carries of the beef free list are
the five American owned Argen-
una packing concerns.
When the consumer is actually
gwen some relief from high beef
prices and the producer is not
deellng the repressive in
nuence, then will it be time for

sleSS to feel that they really did
