ARIZONA IS GREAT
SHEEP PRODUCER

There are according to the U. S.
Department of Agriculture over
500, 900 sheep in Arizona, with a
farm valuation of $500, 900; the
wool clip is over 5000, 900 pounds
annually which with the present
high price of wool brings into the
state one million dollars each year.
Only six states Of the Union
have made gains in the number of
sheep during the past year, and of
these Arizona has made by far the
largest increase,--4I,o 900 over the
year previous.
In valuation and as wealth pro-
ducers the sheep rank next to
range cattle in Arizona.
Range sheep breeding in Arizo-
ma is one of the we'll established
industries which is bringing in
money from eastern markets, and
under intelligent management pays
we'll on the investment.
The sheep breeders of Arizona
are progressive, and each year are
importing large numbers of flock
headers of the best blood. z
Within the past few years a new
use has been found for sheep in
Arizona, in grazing them on the
ditch banks, canals and laterals of
the irrigated sections, keeping
down Johnson grass and other
weeds, at less expense than when
cut by hand and utilizing what had
been hitherto an entirely waste
product.
Recent government investiea-
tons prove that the sheep is a
valuable scavenger on the farms
of the country, being able to make
use of much forage, grass and
weeds which would otherwise be
wasted.
The sheep is probably the old
est of all domeSticated animals, in
sacred history it was the most
venerated of all, and in our pre-
sent day agriculture it is one of
the most valuable.

Kansas City Market Letter
(ByJ A. Rickart. Core Spo 1 te nt)

Kansas City Stock Yards, Aug.
II, 1914. Cattle of all kinds were
in good demand last week, and the
general market advanced IS to 80
cents. The supply was $4,000
head smaller than same weeks
supply last year. The run today
is 10000 head, largest Monday run
this season. Steer BUYERS demand
10 to IS lower prices today, and
after considerable haggling sales
men conceded that amount on me-
dunn steers in the native division,
prime steers selling steady at 10
lower, with top Of SIo.I5. Mid
die class Kansas and Missouri
grass steers, weighing IIooto 1890
lbs, sold at SITS to 500. Cows
and heifers found a good outlet at
close to steady prices, particularly
medium and common cows. A
hurry order for war canned beef
was placed with Armour last week,
which helps the market on every
thing that can be used to fill it.. A
good many country buyers are here
today, and stockers and feeders
are selling steady. Fleshy feeders
are worth SITS to S.25, and stock
steers largely Sc. SO to 81. so. Quar-
antine arrivals are only 81 cars to-
day, and sales in that division do
not show as much decline as in the
native division, steady to 10 lower
describing the market there. Top
in that division is $40, although
good Oklahoma wintered steers
are quotable up to 1888, cows at
IS. so to $500. Killers have small
stocks of meats on hand, and the
general situation favors the selling
side, and the decline today is due
to a set Of conditions effective only
for the day. Hogs opened 10 to 20
lower, receipts 1000 head. De-
mand was good from all sources,
and several loads sold at the top
late, 5000 and bulk of sales rang
from 70 to So.I5. Chicago reports
their hog market quarter lower,
top $o.25, except one fancy load
at SO. 80, bulk $3.50 to 500. Bulk
of hog sales in Chicago has been
lower than bulk in Kansas City
every day since last Tuesday. Ex-
IRENE necessity of killers for sup
plies, coupled with small receipts,
defeat efforts to keep prices down.
Lambs sold 10 to 20 lower to- ay,
receipts 1900 head in the sheep
division. Utah lambs, "a lbs.
average, brought S8.25 today,
which price is the top on Western
lambs in Chicago today. Wethers
sold at $500, ewes IS. so. Good
feeding lambs would sell at $500
but so far this season packers have
taken the Western offerings with
such light sorts that feeders have
been available. Feeding stock
will be more plentiful from this
time forward.

nomically is fully as important. In
stead of being regarded as an enemy
by western orchardists, the blackhead
should be esteemed as a friend, since
1t is a foe to the worst pests of horti-
culturists - the scale insects - which
compose a fourth of its food. The
black olive scale alone constitutes a
fifth of the birds subsistence, and the
frosted scale and apricot scale also
are destroyed.
The blue grosbeak is a small but
beautiful bird which breeds over the
southern two-thirdG of the United
States. Blue grosbeaks do no damage
during the nesting period, and, in fact,
are of great value to any farm they
choose for a home, since they eat
many insects. A tenth of the sub
sistence Is made up of purslane cater
pillars and cotton cut-worms, enemies
of sugar beets and cotton. Because of
| its effective warfare on these pests,
| the blue grosbeak is an efficient ally
Of the farmer and deserves to be pro-
| tected
The gray grosbeak, parrotbill, enters
| the United States only in Texas, Ari-
zona, and New Mexico Like the blue
grosbeak it is more fond of cater
pillars and grasshoppers than of other
| insects. Weevils are next in order of
| preference. In August and Sep
;ember seven-tenths of the gray gros-
beak's food is weed seed, five-tenths
: consisting exclusively of the seeds of
two of the most important weeds of
the south, namely, foxtail, and bur
grass. So far as known, the gray
| grosbeak eats practically no beneficial
insect and damages no crop. This, in
addition to the fact that 1t feeds upon
noxious weed and insect pests, entities
it to complete protection.
Planting wild fruit is important for
the purpose of attracting birds. Be-
sides the fruits above mentioned, the
following are valuable: Dogwoods,
hollies, juniper, bayberry. Virginia
creeper, blueberries, blackberries and
wild grapes. Not all the thickets on a
farm should be removed, since they
serve to harbor birds, to protect them
from enemies, and to furnish nesting
sites. Where thickets are lacking, the
growth of artificial ones should be
encouraged, for they are very attrac-
tive to grosbeaks, particularly to the
cardinal

potent attractions for birds, and with

which relishes corn, sunflower, and
other seeds, and takes kindly even to
table scrap. If particular premises
prove congenial as a winter home, the
bird is likely to prefer them in sum-
mer
No efforts to attract grosbeaks will
succeed, however unless protection is
assured. Grosbeaks are already pro-
tected by law in practically every
state, but, since the machinery for the
enforcement of the laws is often in
effective, statutory protection must be
supplemented by individual action,
particularly under trespass laws.

Seven kinds of finches, commonly
known as grosbeaks, are to be found
within the boundaries of the United
States. The majority of these are
good friends of the farmer and de-
serve to be widely known in order
that their services may be appre-
ciated. The grosbeaks are easily dis
tinguished from other finChes by their
stout forms, bright plumage, massive
bills and melodious voices. All of
these birds perform invaluable serv-
