Glendale, the Garden City of the Salt River Valley, is located 10 miles northwest of the city of Phoenix. It is on the Santa Fe railroad and connected by the system of ce- ment highways with the rest of Maricopa county Grand Avenue which passes through the middle of town and is the main highway to the west and northern part of the state, making Glendale gateway to the northern and western sections of the state.
 Glendale is in the heart of the famous "Glendale Loess Soil,' famed for its won derful content and growing properties. This soil produces bumper crops and possesses the quality of holding moisture. By virtue of the wonderful climate in which the state of Arizona abounds, long growing season is had and many crops may be harvested during one year. In addition to this the mild winters make it possible for crops and pasture to be provided during the socalled cold months
 Glendale is the location of the United States experimental poultry farm This farm is located one-half mile south of the city limits and is the second largest in the United States. Here, careful study is given the problem of raising the best and most productive poultry suitable to the south west The farm under the able direction of Nat E. Luce is making rapid strides in making poultry productive business in this section of the state. It is the aim and desire of this farm to enable the poultry man to secure the best methods of produc- tion through extensive experiments which will be passed on to him as a service
