Yearling steers are being contract

ed above for aged steers. Cows show

were bought in fair quantities during
the month at Az cents a pound deliv-

calves were not sold in any number,
but the coming month may see them
contracted in fair quantity.
Veal calves from the ranges moved
readily at prices around 7 cents a
pound net to the growers, or SIS to
SIG head, going mostly to coast
packing centers. Salt River valley
beef prices during September showed
a slight decline on account of lower
prevailing prices in big eastern mar
kets, due to enormous runs on those
markets by southern grass fed cattle.
Fat steer and cow prices are expect
ed to increase to some extent in Ari-
zona during October.
On a whole. the cattle situation dur
ing the month was as favorable as
could be expected, with an increasing
demand from California buyers for
big aged steers. Younger cattle and
cows turned in fair fashion, as did
calves for vealing.

GENERAL CONDITION
OF ARIZONA BUSINESS

Opening of the fall season brought
expected improvement in general bus
mess in Arizona, with material gains
in many localities over the same per-
iod of a year ago. Outlook for the
winter is considered good, but unusual
advances should not be expected.
The agricultural situation is more
promising than last fall. The cotton
crop is good, total of $4,000 bales
being indicated for the state, and mar
ket conditions on the whole are fav-
orabIe. Ginnings up to September 20
are reported to exceed 1900 bales.
Heavy yields of grain sorghums for
forage, ensilage and grain are ex-
pected, and the hay crop is nearly
$4,000 tons larger than last year. An
unusually good orange crop also is in
dicated.
The condition of cattle showed ma
terial improvement during the month,
with range and water conditions good.
Aged steers are finding ready sale,
and younger steers have been con-
tracted in fair number. Arizona beef
prices declined slightly in line with
quotations at eastern markets, but
fat steer and COW prices are expected
to increase to some extent during Oc-
tober.
The mining situation is practically
unchanged, the price being below the
1874 cent mark, and the industry in
Arizona is adversely affected by Eu-
ropean conditions. The surplus is ma
terialIy below that of the beginning
of the year, however, and curtailment
Of production is not expected.
Report Of the state superintendent
of banks following call of September
Ia shows improvement in banking
conditions over this time last year.
With a few exceptions checking trans
actions reported to the Arizona In
dustrial Congress showed increases
over August and gains over the cor
responding month of 1922.
Retail trade was generally fair, but
some lumber companies reported an
exceedingly dull month. Freight ton
mage of the railroads showed in
creases over the same period of last
year.
Agriculture
With a good cotton crop and favor
able market, and prospects of excep-
LlOnaIIy large C1LTu5 1IuiI SiilplIlSlIS,

and hay, the agricultural outlook in
Arizona shows improvement over a

Livestock
Beef cattle conditions throughout
the state during the month of Sep
tember were favorable in the ex-
treme. Range cattle showed marked
Improvement in condition and flesh,
for the rapid maturing of excellent
feeds afforded wonderful gains to all
classes of stock.
The state as a whole reports abun-
dant feed and water, assuring that
cattle will be in fine condition and
fleshing during October and early
November, the regular fall shipping
season. Aged steers from the ranges
are finding ready sale, mostly to Cal

feeders. Five and a quarter to five
