consist Of lands with a high content of fine material which withholds water from tho plants. and lands with a high content of alaali, either black or white. Little or no soil of this character is found in the Glendale district.
 And, finally, the land of this dis trict. for years. was given over to all falfa growing and dairying, a combi nation resulting in making the soil ideal for cotton culture. The roots of the alfalfa having gone down deep into the "loess," aerating and bringing up the stored fertility of this soil in the shape Of phosphorous and potash and further enriching the land with the ni- trogen drawn from the air. This, coupled with the fertiiizing of the land by hundreds of dairy cows, has pro- duced conditions for cotton growing which have made it comparatively easy for ranchers like LeitzeI, Campbell, Walters, Burnett and others to grow from 400 to 750 pounds of lint cotton to the acre.
 Land Values Raise
 That the experienced cotton grower has been quick to recognize these nat trict is made manifest by the rapid advance in land values in this section, caused by the demand. A year ago, land values here ranged from 1925 to s350 an acre. Today the average is around $4o0 an acre. with $500 land freely predicted within another twelve month
 These values are not high when com

While the 1919 cotton season brought high returns and great prosperity to the growers of the Salt River valley generally, and while percentages of in crease in acreage and value show big parts Of the valley, it is a matter Of thes result of certain natural advan- taSes, made greater percentage of increase along these lines than did
 Here are the figures:
 The value of the Glendale districts s cotton crop in 1918 was s7S0.772 whereas in 1919 total value of the cror reached $2,S03. 500, an increase of 26O per cent.
 Again, Glendale shipped between January l and December l. 191S but 1,of1 bales of cotton. as against 4 total of 5.239 bales between January l and December 1, 1919, a gain for the latter period of 390 per cent over 1918 shipments.
 Records of the local freight offices also show Glendale shipped Al car loads of cottonseed in 191S and a total of 129 carloads in 1919. an increase Of 215 per cent.
 Total cotton shipments from the dis trict in 1918, according to freight of ice and gin records, were 2.42f bales as compared to a total of eSSO bales in 1919, and estimates for tho 1920 season place total production at around $500 bales
 While the greater proportion of these remarkable increases is due Of course,

to increased acreage and higher prices. larger yields, due to better farming m methods, must also be given their need of credit, for while the Glendale dis trict ranchers were making this record in cotton production. other farm prod ucts increased as follows:
 Wheat, 701 per cent; grain, 156 per cent; lettuce. 70 per cent; other vege- tables 100 per cent: cantaloupss 10 per cent, and alfalfa per cent greater in 1919 than in 1918.
 Although the average yield of cotton per acre for the county was but a trifIe over half a bale Glendale dis trict ranchers did not accept this as their average by any means. Earnest A. LeitzeL as an instance. produced 6 bales and S6 pounds of lint cotton on 4-5 acres, or an average of better than d bale and a half to the acre. His gross product avera Ged 2,S6O pounds of ne from the less than four acres being s2.4S7.52, or an average revenue of s654.61 an acre.
 Averages High
 Records of the Glendale Cotton Gin company, according to Manager H. V. Harrison show that Chas. Campbell and Bert Walters picked an average of a trifle less than | bale to the acre from their 50 acres of cotton. The same source of information reveals that w. J. Burnett grew an average of 400 pounds of lint cotton per acre on 120 acres, while another rancher secured an average of 4a0 pounds per acre from 100 acres. The company also states that the average weight of it's 1855 bales ginned was o11.9 pounds
Arizona republican., 1920-02-20

per bale, and that the average price paid was S1 cents per pound, or an average of $414.63 per bale.
 Records of the Southwest Cotton companys local gin of 20 stands, which handled some 4,000 bales for the 1913 season, also show many ranchers with averages of from 300 to 400 pounds per acre on large acreage, and in many instances picked acres ran as high as 11s bales to the acre.
 According to the estimates of Man ager J. H. Little, of the southwest company, and Manager Harrison. or the Glendale Gin company, produc- tion in the Glendale district for the 1920 season will be at least 50 per cent greater than for the 1919 season.
 The heavy yields cited above, which brought the average production for the entire Glendale district up to around three -fourths of d bale to the acre, are attributed, as stated, to certain natural advantages this district pos sesses as a cotton growing section, and
Arizona republican., 1920-02-20

to better methods of cultivation than prevailed in 1918.
 Chief among these advantages is the famous "Glendale Loess'' soil of this district; a soil composed of about 40 per cent rich silt and sandy loam, built up by ages of overflow to a depth of more than 100 feet, and rich in natural fertilizer properties such as phoSphorouS, nitrogen and pota sh. Phosphoric acid impregnates the soil of this district in the remarkable pro- portion of OPP per cent. This type of soil takes water nicely; permits the plant roots to go down easily. and re- leases readily it's fertilizing properties to the growing plants.

 second advantage is the absence of slick" As pointed out. in a recent bulletin on cotton culture issued by the Maricopa County Bankers asso- citation, these slick lands, consist ing of those deficient in chemical ele- ments. and those physically defective,

pared to the rate of return. Taking the 1919 seasonal averages, it is found that Glendale ranchers averaged $50 per pound. and expended an average ing and marketing the crop, leaving net profit of $200 an acre, or 50 per cent profit on a land valuation of $400 an acre.
 Small wonder that cotton growers consider S400 an acre cheap, when they can realize a net profit of 90 per cent on the investment.
 To the purchaser of Glendale lands, then. is offered soil conditions ideal for cotton culture: a certainty of large profits, and an almost equally certain advance in the value of his holdings within the year.
 While cotton consumers are offering contracts on a basis of SO cents per pound, minimum, with other induce ments, the growers are anticipating, with reason, a market equally as strong. if not better. than prevailed in 1919.
