Valley Cotton Crop Will Be 40,0G0
 RaIes

The cotton crop of the Salt River Valley is 96 per cent perfect. This is the official compilation just completed from figures gathered by w. H. Knox, secretary of the Arizona Cotton Crow ers' Association, who was a Chandler visitor Thursday, with c. H. Prather, treasurer of the organization. The men were down for the purpose of es- tablishing a branch here so local grow CTS can secure help without going to Tempe. ...
 In discussing the cotton situation Mir. Knox said: "There are S0,000 acres planted to long staple in this section of Arizona. This valley has 78,000 acres with the remainder at Casa Grande and Florence. The stand is more nearly perfect than it has ever been in its history in the valley. We estimate this seasons crop at 40,- 900 bales and figuring on a basis of $350 bale, the crop will bring S14,- 100000. This is on basis of 60 cents a pound. The present market price is 56 cents.
 "Last year Maricopa county's total products totalled $12,000,000 and of this S6,000,000 was from cotton. The importance of the cotton crop can be gauged from this, when it is seen that half the county's farm wealth was derived from the fibre. The ratio will be even larger this year. While l do not expect the price to hold up as well in future as it is now doing, believe that the decline in price will be grad ual.-Chandler Arizonan.

Sawmill Will Supply Entire s. F. Sys'
 tenn With Ties.

We are informed that, by January l next, the mammoth new sawmill now under construction in the United States pine forest reservation some SO miles south of Holbrook, and the new Pollock railroad, connecting that forest with this town, will be far enough completed to supply the entire Santa Fe railroad system with ties. Such huge new business means much to our city. .-.
 The large machine shop is now un- der construction and the foundation is being laid for the big swamill. The railroad from Holbrook is being pushed as rapidly as possible toward the mill and doubtless will be in po- sition to transport the extensive ma chinery necessary at the time the buildings are ready to receive it, Holbrook Herald.

Helps Meat Supply.

Range has been provided on the
 Black Hills National Forest, South
 Dakota, for 2,500 yearling steers from drought-stricken sections of Arizona. Fifty-four cars were required to carry the cattle, and it was necessary to leave behind large number of stock which were too weak to travel. This action is in line with the policy of the forest service looking to the fullest utilization of the national forest range during the war emergency. Fences to prevent cattle drifting from ranges will be constructed and watering places will be improved on the Black

SHEEP HERDER IS Q.
 KILLED BY LIGHTNING

Meletone Ortega was killed by light ming the evening of July 31, during the big storm that could be seen from Williams. He was Mexican sheep herder near Anita, at Benedict's camp. The lightning went through his tent, and down his side, stripping him almost bare, except for portion of his underclothing, on the lower part of his limbs and his boots. The same bolt also killed his burro and his dog, and burned the tent and everything in it. When struck, 0rtega had fallen over backwards, in the center of his tent, and his body was not injured in the resulting fire. He has a brother at San Mateo, N. M., small point near Grants, N. M., this side of Albu- querque. A coroner's jury went out from Williams August 1, and returned at midnight, bringing the body with them. Interment was made this morn ign in the local cemetery.-Williams News.

A number of robberies have been re- ported from ranches west of town within the last week. At the home of R. s. Peel thieves stole their wedding presents, including a quantity of sil- verware. From the Lyman Armstrong ranch silk shirts, clothes, hay and a fine Lugar gun were stolen, while a number of turkeys were seized from the farm of Ben Farmer. Some rancher must have caught the ma rauders, for a man appeared at the residence of Dr. Jordan several days ago seeking attention for gunshot wounds. The doctor went in the house to get his hat to take the man to the office, when he disappeared.-Chan' dler Arizonan.

 Finds Trees Over 1000 Years Old. Dr. A. E. Douglass of the Univer' sity of Arizona has for some time been devoting considerable attention to study of rainfall and climatic rec ords as registered in the rings ot trees. Three years ago be obtained samples from fifteen specimens of Sc quoia Gigantea, the giant tree O. California. These carried the recort back some 2,200 years.
 Recently the American Association for the Advancement of Scienc, granted fund to Dr. Douglass fo the purpose of extending this recort further, and he has just returned iron a trip to the groves in the high noun tains east of Fresno and Porterville California. On this trip sections O four trees between 2,500 and 2,S0' years of age were obtained from be yond Hume, near Kings River can yon.
 Sections were also secured of tw, trees, one about 2,S00 and the othe about 3,200 years of age, near tn General Grant National Park, and o two trees, both about 5000 years old from the old Enterprise mill site twenty miles northeast of Springville in Tulare county. Many interestin, notes were also made on the relation of age to locality. It is hoped event ually to extend this tree record bacl $500 years, although it is realize that to do so will be very difficul task.
