BEET FIELDS PROsPERING.

Chino Farmers Receive Good Prices
for Their Product.
CHINO, Cal, July 21.-The Chino
and Alamitos beet factories opened up
for the seasons work on Monday, and
will continue in full blast during the
next five months. The beets in the
of both factories are
testing higher than in any previous
year, many of them attaining the as
tonishing percentage of 20 saccharine.
The beets are of fair size, and the aver
age yield will be about eight tons to
the acre. The price paid by the fac
tories is 1925 per ton for II per cent
saccharine. with ascending scale of %
cents additional per ton for each per-
centage of saccharine over II. 1t fol-
lows that beets of 20 per cent sacchar-
inc will be worth 1928 ton. This is
considered by the farmers as ample re-
for their work. The out
come of the season will be the most
satisfactory in the history of the in
dustry.

END OF HISTORIC CRAFT.

Whaler Progress and Revenue Cut
ter John A. Dix Rottlng In Chicago.
CHICAGO, Ill, July 24.-In the har-
Dor Of the Calumet, just beyond the
swell of the waves of the lake, lie the
wrecks of two historic vessels. One
wreck is that of the Progress, New
Bedford whaIer; the other is that of the
John A. Dix, United States revenue
cutter. Within the week the famous
whaler has been sold for a song-$1O is
the amount named as the price paid
and the old cutter has been disposed of
for the value of the engines which are
held within the battered hulk.
The Progress was sent from New
Bedford to be one of the Worlds Fair
attractions. At Montreal the ballast
was taken out and the vessel came
through light. A distinguished party
of people met it off Racine and sailed
to this city, but now there is none to
do it honor. During the fair the Prog
ress was used as a nautical museum.
1t changed ownership several times,
and now is worth only what copper
will bring in the market and what the
wood will bring for kindling.
The John A. Dix was built during the
war as companion boat to the revenue
cutters Andrew Johnson and w. T.
Sherman, though it was considered a
far finer vessel than either of them.
The engines with which it was equip
ped were said to be the best up to that
time put into a vessel of it's class. 1t
did service for the United States for
years. and was finally sold to an eXcur-
sion promoting company. Now the Dix
is fairly falling apart. It's sale was
made possible on account of the en-
gines. which are still capable Of doing
good service.
The Progress and the Dix are separ-
ated by only few feet of water. They
were good servants, but in their old age
they are forgotten.

TEST OF \ MOTOR WAGON

Sixteen Miles an Hour on Rough
Roads.
LOS ANGELES, July pa success
full trial of Mr. Fries motor wagon
was made last night, and although the
vehicle is only intended for eight per-
sons, sufficient power was generated to
propel the wagon over rough country
roads at the rate of IS miles an hour
when loaded down with Il passengers.
The wagon was at all times under
perfect control of the handlebar, and
was backed up to the curb and stopped
as easily as it climped and descended
steep grades. The motive power is
generated from gasoline, and sufficient
fuel may be carried for a journey of
800 miles. Last nights trial was pro-
nounced a complete success by all
members of the party.
