W. j. Hill expected to haul in bis
thresher Tuesday OF this week or yester-
day. He has threshed upward OF 100000
sacks OF barley this season.
DIR. Bartlett Of Orange end DR.. Van
Norman OF San Diego were in town last
week looking at land for sugar beets.
Possibly both will be numbered among
our population before long.
q. II. Wade was down from Los An
geles ON Tuesday. He is subscriber
to stock in the cooperative refinery,
and hearing that operations were to
begin on the factory soon came down to
get in on the ground floor.
While Ben Dauser was storing grain
in J. Griffith's warehouse one day last
week he accidentally fell to the floor,
quite distance below, and to make the
matter worse sack OF grain came tnm-
bling down upon him. He was pretty
badly bruised, but 10 now all right and
at his post of duty again.
A gentleman and bis family from
Oregon arrived in town overland from
San Diego Tuesday evening, having
come up from the city OF bay and
climate because OF the unsatisfactory
inducements offered him there after his
arrival. He had been persuaded to
come down from Oregon, but the coun-
try did not suit him and he pulled up
stakes for Anaheim. He will 60 into
the beet bueiness.
We are informed that no more stock
will be taken in the sugar factory after
January End next. After that date the
books will be finally closed and no more
stock will be offered. Eight hundred
and twenty acres out OF the additional
1000 recently opened have been sub
ecribed for, and the whole subscription
list approaches the high-water mark of
1000 acres subscribed and decided in. If
the full complement of these 1000 acres
be not secured by the End of January,
the books will be closed anyhow. and
the best that can be done to put the
refinery here this year will be taken up
and puzzled to speedy contamination.
When the farmers below town put in
their sugar beets last seaeon there were
patches here and there where the seed
failed to come up either because there
was not sufficient moisture to cause the
seed to sprout or because of improper
planting. 1t was thought by some that
the beets would not grow in these spots
because the soil was too poor or because
the farmer did not seed right, but since
the recent rains the seeds have begun to
sprout, and the young beets are as thick
as they can possibly stand. 1t has here
tofore been demonstrated that sugar
beets can be grown and matured here
the year round where the soil has suffi.
cient moisture to sprout the seed at the
time of planting. This is big advantage
over most sugar beet growing countries,
and the fact that we raise the richest
bests in eaccharine makes this the ideal
sugar producing section.-- --lGasette.
