 CORN-The average yield for the state is estimated at 33 bushels, and the total production at 1,121 ,000 bushels, which compares with 952QOO bushels last year and S64, ,00O bushels two years ago.

 COTTON-Picking continues under favorable conditions. The present outlook is for crop of 46,000 bales of American-Egyptian and 24,000 bales of short staple. Last year the pro duction of American-Egyptian was 36,000 bales, and of short staple, 10000 bales.

The Coconino sun., 1919-11-21
BANISH INFERIOR SIRES
 FROM UNITED STATES

Better sireS-better stock" is the slogan of nationwide crusade to inn prove the quality of livestock through use of pure bred sires.
 J. K. Mohler, chief of the bureau of animal industry, U. S. department of agriculture, is at the head of the cru sade. Mir Mohler says:
 With confidence that better live stock will bring satisfaction and many benefits to it's owners, l invite the con- certed action of farmers, stockmen and others in banishing scrub sires from the United States. The wide spread use of inferior male breeding animals has been for many years a cause of low production per animal and of needlessly poor quality.
 "The continuance of such conditions is uneconomic and unnecessary. The direct and practical means of improve ment is to use breeding animals, es- pecially sires, which are true repre- sentatives of breeds developed for a definite, useful purpose.
 Il am confident, too, that the pub lie, knowing production to be per formed with maximum efficiency, will look upon stock raising with increased respect and understanding. In few localities noteworthy improvement in special lines has been taking place through individual and community eff forts, Let us hasten such improve ment wherever livestock is kept in the United States"
 The value of live stock depends on good care, housing, feeding, and dis ease control, as well as on breeding. Good breeding however, determines the fundamental capacity of an ami maj to be profitable to it's owner. Accordingly the replacement of scrub sireS by good pure breds is consider ed basis for all other improvement While the use of good females is like wise important, good sires bring re-

suits more quickly and economically Tn most cases.
 The nation wide campaign is in response to popular sentiment and to support local campaigns undertaken through State, community and indi- vidual initiative. The plans on which embody no essentially new features of livestock improvement. On the other hand, they have been develop ed from successful policies already used on smaller scale.
 Any person in the United States who keeps any kind of domestic live stock may take part in the campaign and be so enrolled. It includes the boy or girl who has merely pig or some poultry, as we'll as the ranch man or extensive stock breeder. The enrolment of persons permanently engaged in raising live stock for mar ket is especially desired.
 A person desiring to be enrolled fills out simple blank showing the kind and number of animals kept for breeding and he agrees that all sires used for breeding from the date of tllt bitiilh DN PuiS of good quality. Females may be pure bred, crosbred, grade or scrub. Animals listed should be those ac- tually owned by the person signing the blank, but sires not owned may be used provided they are pure bred and of good quality. Definitions of these classes appear on the blank.
 These blanks may be obtained from my office, in the Masonic Temple, Flagstaff. When a blank, properly filled out and signed, is sent to the U. S. Department of Agriculture, they will send back an official emblem or certificate.
 There is no charge whatever con- nected with this.
 The crusade interferes in no way with any work in live stock improve ment now being conducted locally.

NEED FOR INCREASE IN
 FOOD PRODUCING ANIMALS

The following report from the bu- reau of crop estimates is interesting: There are 2l,0O0 less horses than a year ago, and 52,000 more mules. Milch cows have increased 151,00O; sheep, 1,26O,000, and swine 4,609,O00. In average value per head, horses de- creased $5.76, and sheep $021.

 This is as we might expect, with the posibsle exception of mules and sheep.
 There is an ever growing demand for food producing animals and this demand must be supplied. The num- Der and price of horses will probably continue to fall and mules may be
