MESA
A CANNERY.

When truck farming took boom locally. that is to say, when one or two men turned in any actually began planting something instead of stand ing at the curbstone all day and telling about the big things they were going to do, no one figured on a cannery be- ing an early possibility.
 But indications just now are that such an enterprise for Mesa is some thing more than a possibility. When the Buck Produce Co. began planting it's fifteen-acre vegetable farm, MT. Buck opened up correspondence with some California people who had pro noted several such undertakings. They were favorable to the idea of locating a big plant here, but before they would risk the very considerable investment required. they wanted a guaranty of the acreage they would handle. They insist on at least a acres put in each year to vegetables.
 MT. Buck more than fulfilled the requirement.. On behalf of his own company he pledged 50 acres annually and more than this he guarantees that crops will be grown every season of the year. so the factory can operate the entire twelve months, winter as well as summer. This advantage, no unim- portant one, is not enjoyed by canner- ies anywhere else in the country. But it is possible in the climate of this valley.
 Ii should not be a hard matter to get the other 9 acres required. A big cannery would produce a convenient home market that would save all the expense and labor of cratinS and ship ping the vegetable output.
 All of which goes to show that few live men in a community can do about as much to promote its growth and further it's interests as any num- Der of semimoribund public bodies.
