So many of the city employees came to Mayor Martin yesterday, like the proverbial office boy, with sad tales about the deaths of their respective "grandmothers" that he had to close shop and attend the ball game with them. Who says baseball is not the uni versal game? It can hold up the whole machinery of city government.

SALT RIVER VALLEY REALTY
SOME GOOD DEALS BY THE ELLIOT EVANS co.
The Past Week Has Been One of Their Best in Many Moons.

T want to state positively, and without fear of contradiction said A. l.. Warehouse of the Elliot Evans company yesterday, in that persuasive way of his, that this week has been the best, from a business point of view, that the Elliot Evans company has seen in many moons, and I trust that it has been equally good with other firms. Of those who have come to us with a view to purchasing real estate, the small investors and the large have been pretty equally di- vided. About thirds of them want ranch land and the others are looking for city property. One thing I have noticed is that it is just as hard to sell a city lot for a few hundred dollars as it is to sell a ranch at a few thousand. Or, to re- verse that-just as you would an hour glass, don't you know-it is just as easy to make lot of money as it is to make only enough for your laundry"
 Among the larger sales reported by the Elliot Evans company is an eight acre tract on the Park road one and One-half miles east of the Indian school. This was sold by F. I. Berry to w. F. Gregory for $225 an acre. The land is planted in alfalfa and has a small cottage on it. Mir. Gregory has formerly been in the railroad buisness but will now return to the soil and get out ol it all there is there. His hobby Is intensive farm ing and he has ideas on the subject which he will put in practice on this particular tract.
 The fine creamery on the Evans ranch has been sold to the Moo Row Creamery company. They will prob ably make extensive alterations in it. though the creamery at present is one of the best in the valley. It contains a thoroughly modern plant including cold storage.

DICK ERDMAN BUYS 30
 ACRES OF ORANGE LAND
The Land Will Be Cut Up Into Small Tracts for Intensive Farming.

Perhaps the largest purchase of ranch land for investment purposes during the week was that of Dick Erdman. MT. Erdman bought eighty acres one and one-half miles this side of Ingleside in section 32 adjacent to the cross-cut canal. It was pur- chased from Frederick Snyder, the price being SiOO an acre.
 The land is already subdivided in ten-acre tracts and a part of it will be open for purchase as soon as i'm provements have been made. Water will be obtained for the present from the Arizona canal. Enough water will be purchased for the entire eighty acres, but only part will be irri- gated, thus insurlng plenty of water. This tract adioins several orange groves and most of the land will probably be planted in fruit trees. A part of it will be permanently re tained by the Erdman company.
 Among the safes reported by the Erdman company for the week is the house at SIP West Monroe street It was sold by Miss Edna Petit to Roy Smith. the consideration being about S2,5OO. MT. smith is one of the city mail carriers and will make his home there
 Charles Akers sold a ten-acre ranch six and One-half miles out on Center street, in the Orangewood addition, to Frederick Snyder. Consideration, $500. The purchase includes a six room brick house which has all mod ern improvements. including a water system running throughout the house from a windmill

Those interested in oranges and orange land should take 2 look at the display of fruit in the windows of he office of W. J. Murphy of the Phoenix Trust company on West Adams street. The oranges are much larger than small pampkins and not quite SO large as big watermelons. It is all matter of comparison. Anyway they are awful big ones. They were grown or the Ingleside ranch and are specimens of the oranges that last week brought the highest prices ever paid in this country for navel oranges in the New York market.

great many ranchers near Glen dale and away from it have placed their faith in the sugar beet propOsi- tion. There is more land now planted in sugar beets than any one seems to realize. Almost every rancher in tke district will admit on cross eXamina tion that he has devoted a corner nf his farm to this product but there are many others who have fine l0ok.nS fields of what they call garden sass" which look suspiciously like sugar beet fields When the factory is ready for the product it is quite probable that the big machinery at Glendale will have plenty of beets to work on. Some of the employees of the factory and those connected with it have leas- ed land and are planting it in beets Among them are Manager l.. F. Kane Hugh Mckinney, Superintendent Roy Smith and E. F.. Campbell who have leased 1G0 acres which Mir. Campbell will superintend. While in Colorado MT Campbell raised S2 tons to the acre which IS a record that no other section of the country will be likely to break very soon unless it be the Glen dale district. Among those who are growing beets in the valley and saying nothing about it are DeNike and His COX wnO recently purchased the O. H. Christy ranch, miles out on the Yu- ma road. They are a couple of hurry up young men from the east who did not come to the valley for their health. They have devoted a section of their ranch tO SlIpar beptS and have had Mir Meyers of the beet factory over to look at the soil and report on it's fit ness for beets. In addition to their flyer in beets and a sorghum mill which will be in operation next year they have one of the finest punches of cattle in the valley. They received twelve first premiums for their stock at the fair.
