opments that aye< constantly taking

this section are given proper circu-
lation through the press. He has
had q great deal of experience along
this line and will be able to do a
great good for all sections Of the
valley In his work.
1t is not the aim of the company
to confine this department to the
sugar beet industry. but all the
great agricultural resources OF the
valley will be given due attention.
They realize that they are SO
strongly ident fled with this valley

the valley will also help them. and
anything that helps them will also
boost the valley.
This work will be a great help
In making known to the world the
wonderful progress and resources

Of the widespread determination OF

chance of detecting such frauds is
SO remote that the pablo is practi-
cally at the mercy of ali such deal
