ARIZONA LIVESTOCK AND RANGE REPORT

 Some precipitation in the southern
 portion of the district although made ~quate for starting growth of winter feed has benefited the range by
 rendering grass less brittle and less likely to damage by high winds. Re- Ports to the weather bureau are to the effect that high winds of the 3rd and
 4th damaged ranges considerably and rendered the soil dry. A special re- port from the cattle region observer at Fort Apache states that cattle in that section are in good condition, the range has been very good ever since the rains and water is sufficient, number of ranges beings supplied by running streams. Fifty miles north
 west in the vicinity of Cibecue con- ditions are not so encouraging, water IS becoming scarce and stock have been moved to better ranges; the cat tlemen state, however, that a good snow will replenish the water supply Nor the winter. Although the range IS very dry in the Pinto section cattle are said to be in good condition. Two inches of snow fell in the Pinedale sec tion and was followed by colder wealth CT which caused some shrinkage of stock; winter range in that section is still good.
