CATTLE DISEASE is NOW
WELL UNDER CONTROL

ALBUQUERQUE. The recent
widespread rumors that the entire
Apache county, Arizona, was under
quarantine because Of cattle scab and
that, therefore, no cattle could be
shipped from this area have been
largely exaggerated, according to in
formation received from the local Of
flee of the bureau of animal industry.
It is true that last spring scab was
found among cattle in the country
Just north of st. Johns, Arizona
Steps were Immediately taken to erad-
icate the disease and to prevent its
spread. The Arizona cattle sanitary
board in cooperation with the U. S
bureau of animal industry has now
placed under quarantine only the
small area upon which the disease
was found.
This area extends from the New
Mexico line west for distance of six
miles and from st. Johns north tc
the Santa Fe railroad and contains
only about AZ square miles. Orders
have been issued that all cattle with
in this area and exposed cattle be
dipped twice and the dipping is now
being done under the supervision OF
state and federal authorities. It is
confidently expected that the dipping
will entirely eradicate the disease anc

MARKETING ASSOCIATION
is NEED OF CATTLEMEN

III
For several years efforts have been
made in Arizona to form co-opera-
tive marketing association of cattle
men. At the present time there is no
organization of this kind, though the
work of trying to organize the stock
men continues.
cooperative marketing has been
tried in practically all productive in
dustries. In nearly every case it has
been successful. In production it is
a fair price for a fair commodity.
Several reasons have been advanced
as to why Arizona has not formed a
cooperative marketing association for
disposing of cattle. One is thai; many
of the stocl1men think they carl get a
better price for their stock by deal
ing directly with the buyer. Some
times they can, but it remains to be
proved that they will get this better
price year after year. Someone is
going to lose and lose heavily-and
no stocEmen knows when it win be
his turn.
BY forming a cooperative market
ing association, standard price may
be set for cattle and each man will
The Coconino sun., 1923-09-21

receive the same sum for the number
Of cattle he sells, dependent, OF
course, on the quality of the beef on
the hoof.
Another advantage that may have
been overlooked is that through an as
sociation the cattlemen can wait for
the buyers to come to them. There
will be no under-selling, with loss to
other stock raisers, and profits may
be more accurately estimated.
Instead of each stocnnan relying
on his own business ability to deal
with the buyers from the east, he will
be represented by group Of picked
men, who have studied the cattle mar
ket and know what the fair price for
their stock is. These men will hold
out for the fair price and get it,
also they viii see that the buyer gets
the right kind Of stock and does not
turn down any of the cattle for some
imaginary fault when they have been
driven into the shipping point.
Often a representative Of cattle
association will travel to the stock
yards with trainload of cattle and
there dispose of the stock at better
price than was offered on the home
range.
The cooperative marketing associa-
tion protects the stoclkman and the
buyer. 1t has been tried in other
states and found to be practicable. It
is time for Arizona to keep pace with
the trend OF events. Tucson Star.
