Producers, Consumers
Operative Report

Arizona not only has no real
crop surpluses, but its total agrf
cultural production falls far short
Of its actual needs. This state is
being fed largely by Texas, Colo
rado. New Mexico, Utah and Call
fornia.
Those are the startling revela-
Itions contained in the report OF
crop and market survey recently
conducted by the United Producers
and Consumers Cooperative, Phoe
nix with the cooperation of the
Agricultural Extension Service ana
county agricultural agents, and
presented to the annual meeting
OF the Cooperative at the State
Fairgrounds. A copy of the report
has been filed as public docu-
ment with the Arizona Resources
Board at It's office in the State
Capitol.
"a surplus being a commodity
Which the market will not absorb
or cannot be made to absorb
the only Arizona agricultural
products which even approach sur
plus proportions, says the report
"are cotton, which though market
able, is not always highly profit
able: alfalfa hay, which also IS
marketable in it's entirety, but un-
der present conditions is not pro-
perly utilized; livestock, always
marketable, but too largely dumped
in an unfinished state On auction
markets; and citrus, for which,
though lacking ready demand in
the past few years, profitable
market unquestionably can be
| found.
Insofar as Arizona is concern
ed, the widely publicized agricul-
tural surpluses do not exist. Ari-
zona, to a large extent, is being
/ fed by Texas, New Mexico, Colo
RADIO. Utah and California
While there are no real sur
pluses, the report continues,
neither is b e a sufficiently
profitable demand. The market for
! almost every agricultural product
which is produced and sold in Ari
zona, as a matter of fact, is in a
highly disordered state. Arizona
producers, in almost every section
are in direct competition for the
local markets, mot so much with

Huge Horse Roundup

one of the largest roundups OF
horses in the Southwest is taking
place on the Navajo reservation,
due to the fact that it is necessary
for the Navajo to get rid of their
surplus horses so that there may
be more range for sheep and goats,
the Indians primary means of sub
sistence.
For more than century and a
half the Navajo has measured his
social standing by the number of
horses he owned.
This is what makes the event
epochal in the life of the Navajo
tribe. for it marks their willingness
to sacrifice their pride to the neces
sity of the times.
There are nearly 100000 sheep
and goats on the reservation and
the grass has been gradually de-
pleted until now it is often a prob
lem to find feed. Water is also
scarce.
Most of the horses are of very
little value except for the pres
tige they give to the men and
women who own them while the
sheep and goats produce food and
income The wool is made into
blankets commonly called rugs
bv the whites). One horse is COM
monty considered the equivalent of
five sheep, in the matter of graz
ing. so the 10000 horses would eat
grass sufficient for $4,000 sheep
and goats.
The method used in gathering
and selling the horses is pictures
que In many instances the Nava-
10 have driven all their horses to
the corral for branding and selling.
Often the corrals are crowded.
Then the government men suggest
selling the poorest of the horses,
and sometimes trading takes place
between the different families, so
the best of the lot may be kept.
The Glass A horses are branded.
The Class B horses are the inter
mediate grades and the Class c are
those which are of little use ex-
cent for to be made into chicken
and dog food.
Many of the horses are being
bought to be shipped to distant
points to be used by farmers and
share-croppers. Some have gone
to Idaho and Montana.
Some of the horses are in such
poor condition that they are un-
able to make the trip to the rail-
road. and hundreds have died on
the way from the places where
they are rounded up and the ship
ping points. Skeletons can be seen
in many places on the reservation.
A maximum of 10 horses is al
lowed each family unit. Most OF
them. however, have three to six.

other producers within the state
as with commodities from neigh
boring states.'
Moreover the report proceeds
adding further depression and un'
certainty to an already chaotic
market, producers in many Arizona
communities are entirely at the
mercy of a few local buyers who
beat down prices to rock bottom
because they know the grower has
nowhere else to sell his wares.
The report then lists, as among
the heavy importations, from 30
Der cent to 20 per cent Of the eggs
consumed in the state, more than
half the butter, more than half the
flour, large quantities of potatoes,
much of the fresh vegetables and
fruits, and huge quantities OF
wheat, oats, barley and other
grains.
G a e produced on Arizona
ranges, the report points out, are
being exported to markets almost
altogether in an unfinished state,
while hay producers in the irrigat-
ed valley are seeking an outlet for
their crop. "In all the irrigated
countless it continues, there is
lots of cattle available and lots of
hay, but they haven't been getting
together" in a profitable manner.

The Colorado River,
Arizona valleys need.

Arizona valleys need;
Both water and the power,
Thinking men will all concede;
And how and where to get 1t
Is as simple as can be;
Please follow what I'm stating,
And with me you will agree.
First tap its high head waters
On its tributary streams,
And watch this map for data,
That truth verifies our dreams;
Keep it on a high contour
From the North clear to the
South,
Without expensive tunnels
We could thus prevent all
drought.
BY feeding every system
With the water they would need,
Through present water courses,
AS their waters would recede;
For all irrigation projects,
Like Eastern lands, u + + e r
drought,
And all pumped wells keep lower
ing,
From the East, West, North and
South.
Then with the surplus waters,
Running now to actual waste,
Irrigate all our deserts,
Where fine homes would soon be
placed.
And use reforestation
On each northern high plateau,
To counteract erosion,
And help pine and fir trees grow.
This would restore watersheds
And replenish timber waste,
That future generations
Have their heritage replaced.
And teeming idle millions
By our nation are now fed,
And they could all be working
On like projects, it is said.
If political intrigues
And the vested powers Of wealth
Were not striving for control
BY some subterfuge or stealth.
For water is kept flowing
To our neighbor on the south,
While our people are starving
On the windblown n d OF
drought.
Like China in the future,
We could have some foreign foe
Use that nation as base,
Fed by products this would grow
Uncle Sam should build the dams
And work out a special plan
For each state in the basin,
For the idle, homeless man,
Where climate and production
Are the best that can be found,
And homelife conditions
Unexcelled the whole year rouno
Every major water system
BY this method could be fed
In the Colorado basin,
Water experts have all said,
And all the time the water
Drains right back to its old BED
For the next lower system,
AS though brought right from
