VISITOR ADM|RES
 PHOENIX HOLSTE|NS

Frank s. Glass, representing one of the big condensed milk factories of the coast, is spending a few days in Phoenix looking over the general dairy situation.
 Yesterday he was taken by the as- sistant secretary of the chamber Of commerce to the Bradshaw farms. and he was enthusiastic in his admiration of the J. R. Bradshaw herd of Hol- steins. He stated that these cows would average better than any herd he knows of in northern California. Today he is being entertained by an old friend, Aaron Powers, of the gov ernor's office.
 Mir. Glass says that a new imitation milk is being put on the market in a condensed form. This is composed Of skim milk and cocoanut nut oil. Dairy men and condensed milk companies in California arc pushing through bill to prevent the sale of this imi- tation product as pure condensed milk

measure introduced the day before by Senator Wilkinson at the request of the Salt River Valley Water Users Association for the protection of water sheds.
 Senator Campbell said that if the protection should be carried out on the terms of the bill it would be the death of the live stock industry in many parts of the state. Among other things, it was proposed that all obstructions should be removed from natural water courses. MT. Campbell pointed out that there were many dams, some natural and some artificial, that held large volumes of water which slowly filtered out and rose to the surface be- low, affording water for stock which would otherwise perish. The water so impoundej, he said, if released would add little to the volume used for ir- rgation: in fact if the Instructions were not there the floods would be poured out and wasted for all pur- poses.
 The bill was referred to the com mittee of which he is chairman, and it was understood that that would prob ably be the end of it. Later. in a con- versation with Senator Wilkinson it was suggested that John L. Gust, the author of the bill and attorney for the Water Users association, be heard It was then thought that the Dsasure might be so amended as to meet the objections of the stockmen and at the same time, carry out the purpose of the association.
