SUGAR BEETS.
An Opportunity for Farmers to Experi

General Superintendent Shamp of the Maricopa & Phoenix railroad is evolving into a very granger, stirred by the sight of agricultural successes about him, and has interested himself in opening up to the Salt River valley new field of industry. He has, in all commendable enterprise, secured from the Chino beet factory, southern Cal ifornia, three sacks of the seed of the sugar beet, which is now at the rooms of the chamber of commerce ready for free distribution to those who wish to try the experiment. The Chino people express themselves gratifed at the opportunity for testing the soil of Arizona for the sugar beet industry, and there is little doubt that if the beets locally grown shall demonstrate to have large percentage of saccha- rine that a branch factory will here

DATED CULTURE TN ARIZONA.
Arizona republican., 1896-07-19
A New Agricultural Opportunity De . veloped in Phoenix.

At the home of e. M. Sturgis on West Monroe street, can be seen one of the most remarkable of revelations con- corning the horticultural capabilities of this region. It Is date palm, load ed with fruit, fruit that even now is of size rarely known. There are ten clusters of fruit, some of the punches now weighing fully forty pounds each, the crop in all promising to approxi- mate even 400 pounds at the time of ripening.
 The tree was planted by M. w. Kales, who built the house, about six teen years ago.. It has not grown to a size unusual in the city, such palms being common, and till this year the fruit has fallen immature. Last spring the suggestion was made by an amateur horticuturist that the hlos- sons of the tree, which was classed as a female, be fecundated with the pollen blossoms of the barren male tree. The pollen blossoms were read fly obtained from the trees of s. D. Lount, and were dusted among the blossom clusters and then hung in the tree. The result was that the fruit held instead of falling and that boun- teous crop has been assured.
 Secretary Perley of the chamber of commerce has already his eye on one of the clusters and will ask that it be given him for preservation. As no glass jar to be had will contain a cluster he will be compelled to allow the fruit to ripen on the tree and then put it in small showcase for exhibit. It is not generally known that the best dates of commerce, such dates as never reach the Pacific coast, come in clusters to market, carefully packed, just as they have been cut from the tree. They will ripen perfectly upon the limb and the flavor of such fruit is far above that of the article usually known that comes packed a solid, sticky mass, in drums and boxes. The price of the cluster dates is in pro- portion to their excellence and it is believed that proper attention would make the date an article of much profit to the valley. The palm grows here without necessity for care and the blossoming is late in spring, long af- ter danger from frost. Ripening is in October and then all that is necessary is careful handling, as the fruit is cut in clusters from the palm and boxed for shipment. It will keep for an in- definite time, being mainly sugar, the main point being to preserve the at tractiveness of the individual dates.
