RANGES IMPROVE

PHOENIX, March 5.-AbSence of stormy weather, moderate tempera- ture, and improvement in vegetation characterize conditions as they pre- vail over stock ranges during the past week, according to Wednesdays Weather Bureau report. On the north eastern plateau the range is covered with green vegetation and stock has made marked improvement since it has become available. In the Apache Indian reservation pasture is ample and stock are doing we'll. Snow con- tinues to disappear from the high el- evations. There has been no erosion of soil except along the stream beds after the recent heavy rains. In cen tral Pima County a large part of the range is covered with an abundance of dry grass that was cured last au- tum; green grass has started and judg ing from appearances there will be plenty of it. Weeds in particular are going to seed already and stock have been feeding on them for some time. Stock continued in good condition throughout the winter and COWS with calves show very little falling off. No feeding has been done in that section. Steers are all sold for May delivery, none having been shipped since fall sales. Sheep on desert pastures are in excellent condition and lambs are strong.
 Crop Progress in Arizona
 Preparation of the soil for next seasons cotton crop has gone forward with great rapidity and some plant ing has already been done.
 Mild weather has greatly facilitated farming operations in all parts of the State. ApricOts and few other fruits .of minor importance are in full bloom.

Everybody watch your stepi You better get the '1Safety-F'irst'' habit and begin practicing Safety first, for beginning March 21st, Morenci is go- ing to become a SAFETYFTRST town and everybory is urged to pull togeth- CT and help drive the accident jink' out of this Camp
 Safety Week in Morenci, March 21st to 27th, will mark the first Public Safety Campaign ever held in this dis trict. This campaign has been launch ed in many other districts in the past and has always succeeded in reducing accidents to a minimum.
 Safety is eVerybody's business" and it will be the purpose of.this cam paign to get every man, woman and child in this town to Think safety, Talk safety and Practice safety all the time.
 The campaign will start with schools, where our future citizens will be initiated into the Mystic Order of Safety Scouts" Now a safety scout may be a boy or girl, of any age, who must do some deed for safety every day. And it is hoped that through the school children the safety idea may be carried throughout the whole town, and even into the mines and mill.
 Safety Rallies, free Safey Motion Pictures, Four minute takers and many other unique features will be in progress during this week In fast, it will be like three-ring circus-with never dull moment for the whole week.
 The motto of the campaign Let's all be a little more careful bespeaks the sentiment of the campaign, because Safety is everybody's business" and every man, woman and child in Nor enci should feel it his business to not only look out for his own safety, but for each others safety. W

spirited citizens at the Hotel Morenci unanimously voted to put over this campaign and to make Safety Week a success.
 Mir. R. P Kyle was selected as Chairman of the general committee, and Campaign manager. MT. Kyle appointed the following Chairman of several Committees, who will be active in this campaign, namely:
 Publicity Committee, Herbert Hodg- son; Four Minute Speakers, c. B. Hull; Ladies' Safety Committee, Arthur Crowfoot; School Safety Committee, Prof. w. E. Lutz; Workmen's Safety Committee, P. B. Lord; First Aid Com mittee, J. T. Young; Safety Rally Com mittee, John Riddle; Fire Prevention Committee, w. M.4 Saben.
 These Chairmen will select mem- bers of their various committees
 The United States Bureau or Mines First Aid and Mine Rescue car is ex- pected to be in Morenci during this week and to conduct First Aid Clas- ses in connection with the Safety Cam paign.
 It might be well, at this time to outline the difference between these lWO dCtlNIIiSS, ludSluuCu as luo 0dl0Iy First Campaign is designated to pre- vent accidents altogether and make the work of the first aid man unneces- sary, while First Aid man becomes very necessary in case someone does not watch his step and gets hurt. That is, while these two activities are often classed together, there is quite wide difference between them.
  gineer from Los Angeles, will assist the Committee in the details of the Campaign.
 So everybody, then, watch your step and try to get the Safety Habit be- fore Safety Week comes.
