LehI, Utah, March ?2,-Mr. c. O..
Townsend of Washington d. c., who
has charge OF beet seed investigation
for the department Of agriculture was
visiting here the latter part OF last
week with Hon, Geo. Austin, general
agricultural superintendent OF the Utah
Sugar company. Mr.. Townsend's spe-
cial line Of study is the growing OF the
one germ beet seed. He is going 10
ship out quite a lot OF mother beets
from Washington, so Mr.. Austin says,
which will be planted on the Utah
Sugar companys Saratoga farm here
under his personal supervision Mr..
Austin further says, mr.. Townsend
was very much surprised to know that
we are growing beet seed so extensively.
PIONEERS IN SEED CULTURE,
The department is making exhaustive
experiments In the production OF sugar
beet seed, and II was to find out more
about the demand for the beet seed and
the possibilities of supplying this de-
mand that brought him west.
IL may be interesting to note that the
Utah Sugar company was the first TO
grow sugar beet seed In America, and Is
the only one UP to date that has made
Of the Industry a commercial success.
We have been In this seed business
for 10 years. The first year we har-
vested but one sack, but the last year
we harvested over $4,000 pounds Of seed
which were grown mostly H. the Bear
River valley. Our seed has proven TO
be as good as any that can be had from
Germany and the sample OF beets THAT
took the prize at the Irrigation Con-
gress at ogden last fall was grown In
the Bear Rriver valley from seed grown
In the same valley" Mr.. Townsend and
Mr. Austin made visit to the Agrlcul.
tural college at Logan Friday last and
on their way back they went through
the Rear River valley and inspected Me
mother beets which are now being tert-
ed by Chief Chemist Heber Cutler as.
sisted by a force Of boys, Mr.. Towns,
end was very much delighted with the
prospect that we have from an agricul-
tural standpoint,
SOMETHING NEW FOR HIM.
II seems that the government has 10,
known that Utah was the pioneer IN
the production Of sugar beet seed in
America, or even that beet seed had
ever been produced In this state at al.
SO when Mr. Austin told the Washing.
ton representative that last year the
Utah Sugar company had produced
more than 40 tons OF frst-class beet
seed and that the sugar beet prize at
the national irrigation congress had
been taken by beets grown from beet
seed produced In the Bear River VAL
ley, the experts surprise can easily be
imagined, When he was shown the

stored more than 300 tons Of mother
beets. ready 10 be set out soon as spring
opens, and the methods adopted for

Proper Treat mcnt Of Pneum onia.

Pneumonia Ia too dangerous a dis
ease for anyone To attempt TO doctor

proper remedies at hand. A physician

from an attack OF the grip, and by the
proper treatment OF these diseases a

be warded of. There is no question
