ALFALFA IS KING
Of ALL THAT THE
LAND PRODUCES
IN THIS VALLEY
Alfalfa is kingI

Alfalfa Is ktngt
OF all the crops which grow to
profusion and perfection in Arizo-
ma none can surpass this great prod
uct which brings in the money year
in and year out, in good season and
bad, in times OF prosperity and ad-
versity, a certainty for the farmer
ana oftentimes salvation. :.
Practically q continuous crop In
the Salt River valley, alfalfa is un-
doubtedly the most substantial, cer-
tain and real paying crop OF any
grown in this state. 1t brings in the
cash when others fail and 1t lifts
the debt and furnishes q sure in
come TO the grower
The Salt River valley Is the lead
Ing hay producing region in Arizo-
ma. Alfalfa hay is exported from this
section in large quantities, between
SO and so per cent of the states en-
tire output being raised in Maricopa
county. On an average or 1000 car
loads Of alfalfa leaves the valley ev-
cry year destined to be used in the
isolated mining districts of Arizona
where no hay is raised. Prescott is
the biggest buyer Of Salt River val
ley hay, using several hundred car
loads yearly. New Mexico and West
Texas, as we'll as Northern Mexico
depend to a great extent on hay
raised here to supplant their own
crops.
Mainstay Of The Valley
Alfalfa is the mainstay Of the val
ley. Since the beginning Of agri-
culture in the Salt River valley it
has played the leading role in pro-
duction, with few exceptions. 1t was
among the first crops raised in the
valley, due to the demand of the
stockraisers and dairymen for cattle
feed. When cotton became the domi-
nant factor in local agriculture. al
falfa dropped in quantity, but imme-
diately. after the cotton market re-
versed It reclaimed its former pres

tige. Maricopa county farmers turned
to alfalfa just as the sailor turns 10
port in storm. 1t was known 10 pe
a dependable crop and one upon
which the prosperity of the county
depends to a great extent.
The 1921 alfalfa acreage was more
than twice that of the year Defore.
A conservative calculation of the VAL
ue of the local crop placed 1t at TWO
and a half million dollars There were
75, 900 acres OF alfalfa raised in the
Salt River valley last year, with q
total production of 225,00O tons, based
on a. low average of three tons 10 the
acre.
Alfalfa Is the basis for ell farming
in the Salt River valley. The prod
uct reaches its highest degree OF
excellence here and an average OF
six crops a year are obtained from
the fields, exclusive Of the seed crop.
In other parts of the country only
three or four crops a year are har-
vested. The normal yield in this VAL
ley is five and one-half tons per acre,
the maximum harvest being more
than nine tons.
Needs Little Water
Alfalfa is a valuable and econom-
ical crop to grow in this valley be-
cause it requires irrigation in small
quantities regularly distributed al
most throughout the year, thereby
making it easy for the Water Users
association to distribute irrigating
water without taxing its canal sys-
tenn. On the other hand. cotton must
be irrigated freely during short
season, thus requiring all its water
at once and crowding the irrigation
system, while for the rest Of the
year no water at all IS needed.
The principal value to the valley
of alfalfa production is its use for
feeding dairy cows and stock. In
conjunction with the dairy industry,
alfalfa then, is most profitable. gov
ernment figures show that as the
percentage of the alfalfa crop that
Is sold on the outside increases. the
labor income decreases and the farm
ers In many cases fail to MAKE
per cent on their investments.
An important revenue from alfal-
fa raising is the sale of pasture
After the last crop has been har-
vested the aftermath makes ex-
celient GrGzing for cattle and stock
Of all kinds. Many farmers do not
cut their alfalfa but use 1t entirely
for PASTURE. During the past year
the pasture acreage in .he valley in
creased from $4,000 tn $4,000 acres
in 1921. ,Ehe value OF last years
pasture was placed AZ sis an acIe

zona than in eastern dairy states
and with little attention to adver-
tising and a little more care in breed
ing Salt River valley should soon be
known as a home OF good dairy live
stock and attract buyers from the
outside. An outlet would thus be
found for young dairy cattle when
the present expansion of the dairy
enterprise has reached its limits.

IRRIGATION WATER suPPLY

With the exception Colorado river
all OF the streams in ARIZONA are tor
rental in charaster, because of the
limited and variable precipitation.
Colorado river has its sources in the
high, snow covered mountains in
Wyoming and Colorado, and main
tains good summer flow, although
it is subject to heavy floods.
Throughout its course in northern
Arizona this stream flows through
the Grand Canyon, and along most
Of the distance where it forms the
boundary between Arizona and Ne
vada and Arizona and California
there is very little land on which
it's water can be utilized. Near the
southwest corner of the state water
is diverted for use in both Arizona
and California, and up to the pres
ent the normal low-water flow has
been sufficient to meet the demands
of both states. Extension OF the
areas irrigated will require storage,
and plans that will provide for the
largest use Of the stream are being
studied.

BREED FINE DAIRY COWS

In Salt River valley, there are a
large number of fine graded Hol-
stein dairy live stock. and such cities
as Tucson, Bisbee, Douglas and FL
Paso are turning to this valley for
their supply of dairy cows. Prices
of such cattle are no higher in Ari-
