A BOON TO SACRAMENTO
Claus Spreckels' Plans for the
Establishment of a Sugar
Factory.
He Is Willing to Erect the Plant If
the Farmers Will Raise
Beets

SACRAMENTO, CAL, Aug, 23.-P w.
Morse, representing Claus Spreckels, met
the Chamber of Commerce at the Sutter
Club this evening and gave the members
some information regarding the possibili-
ties of beet culture in suitable soil.
Mr.. Morse is the assistant superinten-
dent of the Watsonville beet-sugar fac
tory, and was sent to this locality by Mr..
Spreckels to investigate the adaptability
of the soil here for beet-sugar culture.
The plan which met with his approval
was that committee be appointed to in
duce large number of farmers to plant
experimental acreage and send samples to
him for analysis.
No farmer, he said, need plant piece
of ground more than a few 1eet square.
and he would determine from the samples
sent what ground was suitable and what
was not. If 10000 acres of good ground
could be obtained, and the farmers would
agree to plant that much to beets,
factory, he believed, would be started by
Mr.. Spreckels.
At Watsonville, he said, the farmers
were raising from twelve to twenty five
tons to the acre and were getting 81 ton.
Where the ground was good for beet cui-
ture the farmers were getting rich.
Mr.. Spreckels' plan was to contract with
the farmer to raise beets for two years,
and after this he made annual contracts
at such a time of year as to allow the
farmer to plant any kind of crop he saw
fit, provided he aid not find beets profita-
bic. The fact that this was done showed
the faith his employer had in the industry.
It showed that he was so sure that beets
would prove highly profitable to the
farmer that he was willing to put great
deal of money into factory and trust to
the farmer maintaining his crop of sugar
beets.
Should factory be started here, he said,
it would be as large as that to be started at
Salinas, the machinery for which was
en- route and which was to be the largest
beet sugar factory in the United States.
The members of the Chamber of Com
merce were very much impressed and at a
meeting soon to be held steps will be
taken to get farmers to raise experimental
crops of beets.

SANTA CRUZ ADVENTURE.
Mrs. Cox Hill of Fresno aud a
Companion Rescued From
the Surf.
The Plucky Woman Almost Drowned
While Teaching Young Man
to Swim.

SANTA CRUZ, CAL, Aug. 23.-The
loungers on the beach at the Neptune
baths at noon to-day were startled by a
crv for help from woman hundred
yards away from shore and in the vicinity
of the raft which is the objective point of
all ambitious swimmers, Colonel Ralph
Miller, who was in the shallow water of
the surf with party of friends, heard
the cry and recognized Mrs. Cox Hill of
Fresno as the endangered bather. He
called out in response: "You are all
right Just keep COOL" The loungers on
the sands could see the woman struggling
with Harry Postlethwaite of Los Gatos,
and there was great danger that both
would 90 down before Colonel Miller could
reach them.
When Colonel Miller had swan to the
pair Postlethwaite was exhausted and was
clinging to Mrs. Hill in such way that
she could not have supported him much
longer. He separa ted them and aided
Mrs. Hill to reach the life line that con-
meets the raft with the shore. Then he
turned his attention to Postlethwaite,
who was so nearly unconscious as to be
not only helpless but burden.
The colonel ''Gucke1" him, but he was
obliged to repeat this twice before he
could control the half drowning man and
pea him to shore.

capped death is, with his wife and a
brother, occupying a summer cottage

Mrs. Hill, who is here with the Colonel
Trevelyan party OF Fresno. had gone out
with him this morning to give him the
benefit of her experience, for she is an ex-
cellent swimmer. She did not realize that
he had become so greatly exhausted until
his feet dropped ana his body hung limp
in the water. Then the struggle began,
and as Mrs. Hill remarked after it was all
over. she "hadn't the heart to duck
him. and tn at is where she made her
