BUSINESS SITUATION
OF STATE IMPROVES

March brought an Improvement ov-
er the preceding month in general
business-an improvement less than
had been expected in some localities,
but quite material in comparison with
the same month a year ago.
Distinct encouragement was given
by the 10 per cent wage increase an
nounced by the mines, which will have
an effect on business over most of the
state. Copper finished the month at
II 3-8, half cent gain for the period.
Bank transactions for March show
ed pronounced increase over Feb
ruary, as reported to the Arizona In
dustrial Congress. Wholesale and re-
tail trade was reported generally bet
ter, and freight tonnage handled by
the railroads increased considerably.
Increased amount of new construction
was shown in building permits.
Arizona was one of the very few
states to show an increase in the av-
erage value of farm lands during the
past year in reports of the U. s. de-
partment of agriculture. Spring
farming operations are well along.
Improvement in range conditions
has brought more optimistic out
! look in the cattle industry, which will
receive marked benefit from rate re-
ductions to northwest states recently
ordered.
The end of March found spring OPP
erations well under way in Arizona.
Alfalfa is being cut in the Salt River,
Yuma and Casa Grande Valleys; Pima
cotton planting is far along in the for
mer. Figures on the small grain
acreage planted are still unavailable,
but it is believed barley has increased
and wheat decreased.
That Bookkeeping has assumed a
permanent place in Arizona is shown
bv estimates that there are $4,000 col
onies of bees in the state. The out-
look for the industry is much bright
er than last year Bee keepers ex-
pect to produce a standard package
this season at less than 81, compared
with S1.40 a year ago. The 1922 pro-
duction was a statewide disappoint-
nlent, being over Is per cent of normal
in only q few cases. A normal crop
of one and half million to two mil
lion pounds should result in neat
profit to the producers this year, es-
pecially as local stocks are almost de-
peted and the cost of production down
to a reasonable figure.
The cattle situation is much I'M
proved at the beginning of the spring
buying season, as compared with the
fall season six months ago, according
to H. M. Rice, secretary of the Ari-
zona Cattle Growers association. Cen
eral range Improvement as the result
of storms is the main factor in the
more optimistic outlook, although it is
believed better price is at hand.
Spring sales thus far reported show an
advance over the corresponding per-
iod of 1922.
Of great benefit to cattIemen of
the state was the adjustment of
freight rates to the northwest obtain
ed by Cattle Growers association af-
ter long effort. Northwest states now
can ship in Arizona cattle via the Dag
gett Gateway and Salt Lake line at re-
ductions amounting to $3.50 car to
Butte, Montana, with proportionate
decreases to other points.
