Somewhere In Pinal county there

On the other hand In Pinal coun-
ty there are at present eight
Youngsters who need that home as
badly as do the man and woman
need a child.
These children are under the
care of the Pinal County Welfare

have been wiped out by reasons
which do not evolve any onus on

County Cotton
Lands Increase
By 8,34 Acres
Despite Increase in short staple
planting in San Carlos Project
new pump lands cause net gain
county raises two-thirds Of
state total.

Notwithstanding the drouth that
has materially cut acreage on lands
OF the San Carlos Project, the total
cotton acreage in Pinal County has
increased from S4.0O5 acres in l9-
as to 92.350 acres in 1916 it was
learned today following a survey
made BY the Coolidge Examiner.
This increase in planting has
been brought about through the
development OF new pump lands
and ia particularly significant when
IL is estimated that only about one
half the normal cotton acreage Is
planted this year on the San Carlos
Project lands because of the wat
er shortage.
Ginners all report the cotton
crop in excellent condition for this
time OF year. Picking of the l945
crop was completed by mid-Feh-
ruary. the earliest for several years,
and with good weather farmers
were able to prepare their lands
and plant earlier than usual. Most
of the cotton in the county Is
chopped and cultivated and gives
every promise OF an excellent crop
providing power and water con-
dItions are satisfactory for the re-
mainder of the season. While COM
plete figures are not available on
the total Arizona cotton acreage,
Il is believed that II will not exceed
100000. Pinal County therefore
has about two-thirds OF the States
cotton acreage. X. X. Henness.
County Agricultural Agent reports
that a somewhat greater increase
e. indicated in the acreage OF
grain sorghums. June l was the
deadline for growers TO declare
their intention TO plant grain sor-
ghums for registration or certiii-
cation under the program OF the
Arizona Crop Improvement Asso-
citation. The total acreage OF pure
