Cattlemen and Sheepmen Buy Many Tracts for Feeding Farms. Phoenix. Feb 22 Sheepmen, cattlemen and swine growers are taking the Salt river vallev The 170-000 acres included in the Salt river reclamation project seems likelj to become one big stock farm. "Intensive farming" mi the cry two or three years ago. Kxtraordinary efforts were put forth to induce California and eastern farmers to settle on tracts of 10.

20 and 40 acres At the same time earnest endeavors were being made to improve market conditions and find new markets for -vegetables and fruits It was argued that with its climate, the Salt river valley should be able to compete successfully with the great truck and fruit-growing sections of California. These efforts continue nnd It has been demonstrated that this valley can compete with California In the production of aranges, lettuce, cante-loupes watermelons and other products. But it Is now realized that the "salvation" of the valley does not depend upon Intensive farming. Immigration is not regarded nearly so essential as formerly. 1)0 Per Cent Sold 'In Stockmen.

The change has come from a direction that the real estate men and immigration stimulatois wholly overlooked. Local realty dealers say that 90 per cent of the land sold In the valley the last ear haB been purchased bv Arizona sheepmen and cattlemen. The sheepmen purchased far more than the cattle growers. There is hardly an important sheepman of northern Arizona who does not own an Alfalfa farm in the valley. Hugh Campbell, Harry Gray, Dan Fran-cls.

Johi Mudersbach, II. C. Lockett, Fred Colter and scores of others who follow the sstom of grazing their flocks in the northern counties during the summer and in Maricopa county during the winter, are now landholders under the Roosevelt dam. Almost never does a sheepman sell hav Whenever he is not pasturing his alfalfa he cuts it and stacks it against the time when feed on the range will be scearce Saves S30.00U on fO Acres. One sheepman estimated that an 80-acre ranch in the Salt river valley had saved him at least $20,000.

He had 2000 old ewes in the hills north of Phoenix when the rains and snow came in Januarj There was no range feed and the ewes would have died had not lie driven them down to his farm. Now they are In excellent condition and after lambing time his herd will be increased to nearl 4000 In the spring his sheep will be worth at least 5 a head. This is only one Instance sheen are on pasture In the Salt valley today, and many of them undoubtedly would have died last month but for the alfalfa. Thousands that were cut off in the hills by floods and snows did die. Cattlemen Have Feeding Fnrraa.

Ijon Harmon, Charles Mullen, W. Cook, Cleve Caveness, F. A- Held and Dell Crabb are, only a few of the wealthy cattlemen who own cattle In the north and alfalfa farms in the Salt river valley. They use their farms to ratten their beer cattle and to savo their poor stock when feed is scearce. Thev also hold their hav.

Conservation of hay by sheepmen and cattlemen is said to be the reason for the present i high prices of alfalfa Baled alfalfa is 114 to 115 a ton and as high as $12 a ton Is celnpr paid for loose hay in the stack. A year ago many farmers were forced to sell their baled hav for 1G a ton. It Is now believed that the prices will never again drop below the point where alfalfa growing ceases to be profitable for the area of land producing hay for the market is greatly reduced. Cattle Ilelng Fed. Conservative estimates place the number of cattle being fattened In the valley at 50 000 head.

In addition there are 18,000 dairy cows. The number of dairy animals Is Increasinc constantly. A big creamery company at Terape recently imported several hundred head of registered cows from California. California capitalists have financed the Arizona Red Hog company and have bought a big farm west of Phoenix. The farm is now being equipped and they expect to have 30,000 hogs there within a year.

Today there are no more hogs than that in the whole valley. The Red Hog company has a plan to lease brood sows to farmers.
