SUGAR BEET GROWERS
SIGNING CONTRACTS
More Than One Hundred Acres Listed
on Monday.

Lafayette Meyers, superintendent
of the growing department for the
Southwestern Sugar and Land COM
pany of Glendale, who has his head
quarters in Phoenix, arrived in Mesa
on Monday. bringing with him a
quantity Of contracts for the beet
growers of this section to sign up.
He was met at the depot by H. L..
MumfOrd, who has charge Of the Mesa
department, and together they imme-
diately drove out among the farmers,
and during the day secured the sign
ing of over one hundred acres to be
devoted to the growing of sugar
beets. which is destined to become one
Of the coming crops of the valley
Mesa headquarters and bureau of
information have been established in
the store of o. S. Stapley & Com
pany. Mr. Mumford will be in charge.
Beet seed for planting can be secured
there. Many contracts were signed
yesterday and the outlook for a large
beet harvest in this vicinity is more
than promising. The seed can be
planted from now until February Is.
1t is almost a sure crop and the re-
turns on money invested and time
spent in its culture are large.
Mesa soil. as has already been dem
onstrated. is particularly adapted to
the growing of the sugar beet, pro-
ducing a large per cent of saccharine
matter.

ELECTION FORECAST
BY SCHOOL PUPILS
The Result Showed a Close Study of
the Political Situation.

Previous to the recent presidential
election, the pupils of the Union
High school. under the direction of
Supt. B. II. Scudder, made a close
study of the political situation. The
pupils were encouraged to make a
forecast of the result by states and
that some of them had the PROPOSE
ton pretty well figured out is made
evident by the report of the forecast.
Roy Harding was in error on just
three states. Maryland. Missouri and
Colorado. Lloyd Ozanne was second
and missed but four. Idaho, Mary
land. Missouri and Montana. Obed
Lassen also missed four, while Paul
Daggs and Anna Breandenberg were
in error on five states each. The
poorest forecast was wrong by six
teen states, while the intermedite
ones averaged up very well.
Supt. Scudder offered a small prize
to stimulate interest in the affair and
ii was awarded to Roy Harding
The young people took a very active
interest in the election and made a
close study of the situation. That
they knew something of what they
were about is quite evident by the re-
suit

THE K. OF P. BANQUET
A BRILLIANT AFFAIR
Fully 1o5 People Partake of Repast
and Listen to Fine Program.

The banquet given by the members
of Damon lodge No. 10, knights of
| Pythias, in Castle hall last Monday
evening in commemoration of the an
/ niversary of the founding of the order,
eclipsed anything of the kind ever Civ
en- in Mesa heretofore. The program.
both vocal and instrumental, was well
chosen and its rendition by some of
Mesas best talent delighted the hear

partook of the delicious viands on the
festal board.

ceremonies during the rendition of the
program and afterward as toastmas-
ter.
The first number was a solo by Mrs.

A DISAGREEABLE DAY
WIND, DUST and RAIN
The Only Comfort Is That There Are
So Few Like II.

1t is fortunate for the comfort of
the people of this section that such
days as yesterday are exceedingly
few and far between. The day start
ed out wrong and gradually grew
worse. 1t was cold. cloudy and dis
agreeable in the early morning and
several little showers fell before noon:
there was hardly enough, though, to
settle the dust and about noon the
dirt was something terrific. The wind
blew from every direction at the
same time and for a little while the
dust was so thick it was almost
impossible to see across the street
This demonstration was followed by
stronger shower and the wind died
down toward the middle of the af-
ternoon. Weather sharps predict a
good rain within the next few days
and it is to be hoped that this down
pour will materialize for a good soak
er at this time would be of great
benefit to the farmers and the public
in general.

SUNDAYS RACING EVENTS.

1t has been learned that some of the
statements concerning last Sundays
racing, south of the base line, were in
correct. DR.. A. 3. Cook. who rode one
of the horses. states that he was in
the lead and. his horse having nc
shoes. he pulled out of the hard going
part of the track and in doing so the
two horses ran together. The blow
which Mr. Cook received was purely
accidental. The race was so close that
the judges were unable to decide in
favor of either horse, and it was de-
clared a draw and the money was re-
turned.

PETITION FOR NEW ROAD.

Ed Thompson, a resident of Lehi.
was in Mesa yesterday securing sigma
lures to petition to the board of
county supervisors to build road, be-
ginning at the north end of Center
street and running north to the Salt
river. Mr.. Thompson states that he
has a twenty acres of land which is
completely hemmed in by other prop
erty, he having no outlet whatever. He
states that besides a road built as his
petition asks would prove valuable to
many of the farmers living between
Mesa and the river.

CONFLICT OF SHOWS
TWO The SAME NIGHT
A Double Header Next Week Unless
One Company Changes Its Date.

Tuesday, Dec. LIST, will be a day
of shows in Tempe unless something
happens between now and that date
that causes one company or the other
to cancel its engagement here. Early
in the season VIM. Goodwin booked
the Uncle Josh Perkins" company
for its appearance here on the even
ing of December LIST at the opera
house. Day before yesterday the
town was billed for the appearance
of The King of the Cattle Ring"
on the same evening. If both shows
required the opera house, it is OBJ
vious that one of them would have
to give way to the other but the
King of the Cattle Ring is a travelling
organization that carries its own the
alter complete in the shape of a good
sized canvas.
Uncle Josh Perkins" is a clever
rural comedy drama. As a play it
is said to be wonderfully criminal
in construction and possesses many
thrilling situations. while pathos and
humor intermingle all through the
story. everything coming out as il
should in the end. The scenic pic
lures, divided between Uncle Joshs''
farm in Vermont and New York City,
are features of the play. Notwith
standing the many humorous situa-
tions. the author has never once al
lowed the plot to be lost sight of,
which has the effect of making the
play one of unusual interest.
THE King of the Cattle Ring" is
a western melodrama in five acts by
Hal Reid. The company carries thir-
ty people and travel with two spe-
cial cars. The tent is so arranged
that with the aid of calcium lights,
the best stage effects are secured
and it is difficult to realize that the
performance is being given under a
canvas instead of in a first class
theater
Both attractions carry a first class
band and both are said to be high
grade performances. 1t is rather I'M
fortunate that both should be billed
here for the same evening, for it is
quite impossible for one to attend
both performances and both are well
worth the time. 1t is to be hoped that
one company or the other may be
able to change its date here in order
that Tempe people may be given the
opportunity of witnessing both per-
fOrmances.

The bladder, however, causes the

inspection at Sasco and the surround

While they made no investments
