PLAN PROGRAM

The Pinal County Farm Bureau,
in regular monthly meeting at the
sub-station Saturday morning, Sep
tember 81, inaugurated the first
step in a program by which it is
hoped to increase the acreage of
alfalfa upon the irrigated lands of
Pinal county.
Among the members of the Farm
Bureau attending the meeting and
taking part in the discussion were
c.. E. Nichols, R: W. Kenworthy
NJ. A. Anderson, w. S. Prouty, Du-
gald Stewart, D. o. Martin, How
ard Thomasson and F. E. Kennedy,
The matter of an extensive pro-
gram with a view of establishing
the proper ratio of alfalfa and cot
ton, and the extending of the dairy,
livestock feeding and poultry bus
mess was discussed from various
angles. Among the salient facts
brought out in the discussion were:
1. Cotton is our best cash crop,
and should under our crop program
continue to be a leading one, but
crop yields must be bale to the
acre to return profit in average
years.
2. Alfalfa, or alfalfa and livestock
provide means of regular farm
income, and likewise build up soils
in fertility. Concrete evidence of
this exists on several farms in the
valley, upon which alfalfa has been
plowed up and planted to cotton,
alongside of cotton on land which
has never been in alfalfa.
8. Less than 5 per cent of the
present irrigated area Of Pinal
county is in alfalfa, whereas not

IS COPPER
STATEMENT

Under the heading Of "a Disap-
pointing Copper Statement" an ar
ticle appears in a recent issue Of
the Boston News Bureau, with the
comment that little comfort can be
seen in the August figures pertain
ing to the condition of the copper
market.
The features of the August state
ment Of the copper producing in
dustry were:
IA further increase of 51,79S,-
900 pounds in refinery surplus;
2.-Slight reduction in the per
diem refinery output-from 7,94S,
900 in July to 7,792,OOO pounds in
August
3.-Smallest shipments to domes-
tic consumers with one exception
in many years;
4.-Failure Of the United States
mines further to reduce output.
The holders Of copper shares can
derive very little comfort in perus-
ing the figures embracing opera
tions of the industry during August.
The only constructive item-and
that wasn't much-was the slight
reduction in the daily rate of refin-
cry output.
The shipment TO domestic man
ufacturers last month dropped to
l1S,62O,0OO pounds from 15O,S72, 900
pounds in July and 1913, 900
pounds in August a year ago. 1t is
obvious that the paucity of con-
sumner demand, if longer continued.
will necessitate a more rigorous
cut-down of production. Last mouth
only 47% of the refinery produc-
ton was shipped to consumers in
this country, 1920 exported and
2l% carried to surplus, bringing the
latter total up to 100000 pounds.
This stock of copper represents
from 20 per cent to 25 per cent of
the annual shipments from the re-
fineries during the past four years.
At current rate of shipments it rep
resents from three to four months
supply of metal.
1t is not strange that metal buy
ers continue out of the market in

and of the enthusiasm and faith

able and congenial commercial man.
ager for this districe for the Ari-
zona Edison Co., gave a snappy
talk on lines appertaining to the
development of the valley from the
public utility standpoint, clearly
showing growth by the company's
schedule of expansion. Sam Den
ham, of the Coolidge Drug Co., and
recently from Kentucky, spoke
feelingly of his impressions of Ari-
zona, and particularly of the won
derful opportunities that would
come with the further development
to take place Rev. Ward gave an
interesting and instructive talk re-
lating to religious matters. Pres
ident Davis addressed the club on
How to Make Your Town Grow"

Monday evening at the Woman'S S
Club in Casa Grande there was a
gathering of good fellows and their

1t was not only a gathering of the
men who are putting the Arizona
Electric Co. on the map in this Sec
tion with as near perfect service
in all departments as can be made.
but the theme of the talks made
was along the lines of super-service.
As an incident of the occasion the
Mae lamp selling campaign was dis
cussed, Lloyd Westrick, head of the
commercial department, was master
of ceremonies.

the mountains. They will work out
of Coolidge, using this town as

The Casa Grande Ruins is rap
idly becoming one of the leading
spots of interest on the North Amer
lean continent. According to Frank
Pinkley, superintendent of South
west Monuments, over $4,000 peo-
pie have visited the Ruins this
year. This week Colonel Picker
ing, retired army officer, and Mrs.
Pickering spent some time securing
data concerning this prehistoric edi-
flee and the compounds in the vicin-
ity. The Colonel, who is worlds
traveller and has viewed the ancient
ruins and cities brought to light by
psychologists in many countries,
was much impressed with what he
observed and learned at the Casa

has resided in Coolidge as an en-
ployee of the Plant Quarantine Ser
vice, left last night, Thursday, for
New York City, where he enters the
employ of the government as plant
quarantine inspector Of the port Of

less than rs per cent should be in

4. Credit facilities must be
worked out whereby farmers may
be financed in the hay, livestock
and dairy business.
5. Under our present crop sys-
tenn lands will gradually deteriorate
in fertility. Furthermore, when the
time comes to pay off the bonded
Indebtedness incurred by the build
ing of the Coolidge Dam and canal
system, the lands will, unless the
cropping system is changed, be in
a poorer condition to make these
payments than they are when first
brought in from the desert.
6. The present condition calls for
definite action by the farmers and
landowners of Pinal county. A sat
isfactory and permanent crop pro-
gram must be worked out.
A motion was passed whereby
M. A. Anderson of the Pinal County
Farm Bureau appoint a committee
of five to represent the Pinal Coun-
ty Farm Bureau, this committee to
be augmented in it's membership by
representation from the banks, irri-
cation districts and chambers of
