LIVESTOCK GROWER

Arizona livestock, in past years, be- fore the establishment of the Arizona Packing company here, had to be ship ped to Kansas City. Denver or Fort Worth to be marketed. This caused considerable loss to Arizona stock men through the costs of freight and feed Ing, as we'll as thruogh shrinkage and a lowering of the general condition of cattle as a desult of the journey. More over, the grower was forced to take chances on the market conditions which he was to encounter in the pack ing center to which he shipped, and on the prices which he was likely to find prevailing there.
 With the organization of the Arizona Packing company and the establish ment of an immense, modern, perma- nent, hygienic meat packing and meat products manufacturing plant so close to Phoenix, in the heart of the state, all this is changed The Arizona livestock grower. as we'll as cattle raisers of the entire southwest, now have market for all their products at Phoenix, where they can obtain prices equivalent tC those paid in the great packing centers of the United States.

ALL RECEIVE SOME Benefit
Good Roads Are Advantageous Alike
TO Producer and Consumer
Storage Charges Less.

When the roads of the great PRO-
ducing zones of this country are inn
proved. benefits will accrue not only
to producers, but to consumers. When
marketing is distributed throughout
the year. storage charges must decline.
This country is paying at present large
storage prices on foodstuffs. The dis.
advantages of freight congestion in the
fall cannot be entirely eliminated in
many places, but good roads will Ger.
tainly have a marked tendency to dis
tribute hauling over longer periods.
It is reasonable to say, therefore,
that good roads mean that diversified
farming will be encouraged. the area
Of profitable production increased. the
opportunity for favorable marketing
improved, and more uniform distribu.
