MARKET is SATISFACTORY

Information has reached the asso-
ciation's office that sale of yearling
steers has been contracted for $27.50
for delivery in late May, and also of
ascontract for male calves to be deliv-
cred this fall at $21.50 head. These

and the deals very satisfactory to the
owner.
Our association is endeavoring to
get in touch with possible buyers of
cattle this spring, in the hope that it
may be of some little service in this
way to those of our members who
will have cattle for sale. 1t is there
fore requested that any interested
members will kindly send to the office
of the association a list of what they
will have for sale this spring, separ-
ating the classes into steers, cows
and heifers, giving the ages, condi-
tions and quality of each, point and
date of delivery and prices they are
willing to accept. - National Forest

VERDE VALLEY FRUIT CROP
Is HALF LOST BY FROST

There will not be more than half
a fruit crop in the Verde valley and
on Oak creek this year, according to
Charles Burrus of Bridgeport, who
was in Jerome recently.
"The spring has been the most un-
favorable for fruit that we have had
for several years." Burrus declared.
.As fast as the blooms would come
out the frost would kill them. Every
body that have talked to is very pes
simistic as to fruit and do not think
anybody viii have more than half a
normal crop; many will pick less than
that
For. some weeks Burrus has been at
work on the Cottonwood ditch, which
was dry throughout the month of
March. Water was TURNED back in
on April l and now the farmers under
that ditch are busy irrigating their
land, preparatory to the planting of
crops. = Jerome News.

TARIFF HELPS ARIZONA
WOOL GROWERS MARKET

While the Boston wool market is
perhaps little firmer and more op-
timistic as far as sentiment is con-
cerned the bulk of recent sales have
been based on some concessions in
values. Certain grades of foreign
wools, especially medium and low
grades, have been moved, but manu-
facturers are looking for bargains. If
they can secure material concessions
they appear to be ready to antici-
pate future needs, otherwise will buy
only for piecing- out purposes. Buying
in the west has broadened out again,
though buyers are trying to hold the
market down. Some large accumula-
tions have recently been taken over
in Utah and Nevada and to q smaller
extent in Arizona. Foreign markets
are closed for the Easter holidays, but
closing strength is said to be main
tanned. The consensus of opinion in
the wool trade is that the leading
woolen interest in advancing wages
not only made very shrewd business
move, but did much to stabilize both
wool and goods markets. The mills
are consuming an enormous quantity
of wool, and experienced wool men
say that it is only question of time
before manufacturers will be forced
to come into the market again for adj
ditional supplies of wool. Customs
rulings have now been promulgated
that will permit final liquidation of
both greasy and secured woods with
drawn from bond for consumption
