stance, he will report that to the sec retary, who can tell him that another contractor has more than he can use That will work for the benefit of both the workmen and the contractors alike, since the former will not have to wait between jobs and lose money
 Asked if he were able to place an estimate on just how mucn building activity has been curtailed by the in dustrial dispute, MT. Campbell said that although unable to place an exact estimate, it was undeniable that many people are leaving, or refusing to come to Phoenix because they find it impos- sible to have homes built for them selves.
 'I wouldn't forecast the peak of this trouble. We thought early last spring that we had reached the climax Of high prices, but on the Sth of this month lumber took another jump of from 15 to 20 percent, and I can't see when it is going to end.
 ''I am not against craft organization understand me, but I am against col fusion among the crafts to dominate the situation. I think we have got to come to the open shop as the only prac- ticable solution of the building trades an open shop town for a number oi years. Compare its flourishing condi- ton with cities in the bay region where radical unions have a free rein The open shop is not purely a local question, the whole country is awake to it.
 That's what I think about the year that is past and the year that is be- fore us"

UNREST
 HAMPERS BUILDING
 SAYS EXCHANGE HEAD

Not so optimistic as others. but nevertheless confident that all things will work out we'll in the end, Clinton Campbell, president of the newly or ganized Builders Exchange of Phoe- nix, told The Republican in a general way of what has happened in the realm of builders during the year.
 The year has been not the best in many respects" he said. and although there has been a tremendous amount of building. the margin of profit has been small because of the industrial unrest.
 Unlike the retailer who has a con- crete commodity to sell, the contractor is absolutely at the mercy of both the labor and material markets. without any chance to protect himself against unforeseen advances in price. The re- taller is protected by the fact that his stock remains in hand, and he can ad- vance his prices as he needs to do so. Under the abnormal conditions of the present year the contractor can not do this.
 Labor has raised it's price on as little as two or three days notice. The dealers in rp-terial are not so bad. They will protect you on the contract in hand. especially for their regular customers. Labor is different now from what it was in former years. however"
 Tn speaking of the newly organized Builders Exchange, MT. Campbell said:
 "The aim of the organization is the betterment of our business. of course but we think that we can accomplish a great deal of good for ourselves and fro the public in general. All general building contractors and Sub-conrrac- tors are eligible to full membership and material dealers are eligible to as sociate membership. There IS a roster of approximately 50 at present, and w. A. Seavey is secretary.
 We propose to handle a labor bureau in connection with our organi- cation, and to keep in touch with the various crafts and their members. T. one man is short of carpenters. for in

Agriculture-The Salt River Valley
A RETROSPECT AND A PROSPECT

Although settlement and irrigated farming in the Salt River valley actual " began more than fifty years ago. actual progress dates from the build ing of the Roosevelt dam-
 When the project was taken over ap- proximateiy 160,000 acres were under irrigation About 3O.000 more acres nad been under cultivation at previous tmes, but owing to the lack of water had been abandoned The total area under the project now is approximately 1000. and the total for the county is nearly 300,0 acres.
 considerable part of this approxi- mate 100000 outside of the project has been developed since the taking over of the project by the United States reclamation service and is indirectly the result of the success; of the Roose- welt irrigation project.
 The valuation of the 160. .000 under -ultivation at the time the government took over the project is at least double in value. Other lands not then under cultivation have increased in value to ! far greater extent. Just what the average would be is rather difficult to say. As some indication of the increase If business which is due pretty largely directly indirectly to the Roosevelt irrigation project. the following figures will show.
 The Coming of Cotton
 The deposits of the banks of the county under date of June 30, 1910, were 34.s94. .550.65. For June 30, 1919, the deposits of the county were ST. 906.947. The value of taxable prop erty in the county for 1913 and 1914 the earliest dates of which we have authentic figures were 66.962. .669- The present valuation is s1OO. $50 667.31. The increase since the taking over of the project is very much greater. The as- sured water supply has made possible the development of the long staple cot ton industry which would not have been possible otherwise. This is worth to this valley something like 1s,0Oo, 900 or S20.OO0.000 annually at the present time.
 The revenues from the farm crops of Maricopa county has been carefully compiled and is estimated as follows:
Arizona republican., 1920-01-01

short time crops, returned over two million dollars.
 Allowing for acreage that was double cropped there Is reported a total of q little less than three hundred thousand acres in cultivation in the county.
 The average production per acre for 1919 was $135.
 Future Is Bright
 What will the future be- Looking back at the progress that has been made, every citizens heart swells with pride at our achievements. but no doubt had one of those pioneers who first conceived the idea of taking water from the Salt River for irriga- tfon. predicted one half of what has been accomplished he would have been reviled as an idle dreamer.
 We have done well. We have a great valley, fine towns and a wonderfully progressive people. but this progress sive people will not stand still and the next ten years may show us as great or even greater increase in production, in wealth and population as has the last decade
 Just to show that there is a basis for such a statement, 1t Is only neces- sary to cite the fact that our average yield of cotton is one half bale per acre, while many have produced from a bale to a bale and a half to the acre. Our average production of alfalfa hay in the valley is four tons and eight to ten tons is not so uncommon assto ex- cite comment. Our production of wheat is IS sacks or 30 bushels, and yields Ot 60 bushels have been made. We have nearly 5000 acres in orchards and most of this acreage has not yet reached full maturity. The average production of our dairy cows is probably about 250 pounds. It is entirely possible to raise this to $50 or more.
 Predictions Are Absurd
 So It Is in practically every branch of agriculture The possibilities are so great as to make predictions seem absurd-impossible unless qualified with explanation.
 To a truly progressive people such as those of the Salt River valley there is no limit to what may be. The future is reflected in the achievements of the past.
