Mrs. johnson Wins Medal.

The Matrons Gold Medal Contest
was listened to by an audience
which taxed the seating capacity of
the Presbyterian church Tuesday
evening. The program was most
entertaining and was thoroughly
enjoyed by all present. The con-
test numbers were splendidly given
and among so much merit the
judges must have found it quite
difficult to decide. The gold medal
which was awarded to Mrs.
George W. johnson, was presented
by Supt. A. G. Foster, whose re-
marks tho brief were very pleas
ing. The contest was under the
auspices of the W. c. T. U. and
the ladies have cause to feel graft
fed at being able to present so
entertaining a program for the
pleasure Of the public.

many instances there has been little
or no change. Monday, it is under

NEW RECORD
FOR ALFALFA
Third Cutting For Present
Season
NOTHING LIKE II BEFORE
All This Has Been Brought
About BY An Abundance
of Irrigation Water, In
Spite of a Backward
Spring

Alfalfa is such an ordinary every
day crop in the Salt river valley that
even in the event that it should roll
would probably be over looked. The
truth of the matter is that alfalfa is
so very common that il is not sx-
pected to do anything spectacular or
out of the ordinary. However, care
full comparison of previous dOings Of
the plant throughout the Mesa section
has revealed the information that the
third crop of alfalfa will be ready to
cut by June Is and that by the 10th
of this month the regular third cut
ting will commence, the earliest in the
history of the valley. To the aver
age casual observer this will hardly ap-
pear to be anything out of the ordinary
but the alfalfa grower who has kept
a record of the doings of his friends
will realize the Importance of such
condition.
The abundance of irrigation water
is given as the cause or rather as the
principal cause of the record breaking
growth of the most important crop in
the Salt river valley. This fact is
especially important with reference To
the Mesa ranchers since no less than
65 percent of the alfalfa of the Salt
river valley is grown in the Mesa sec
ton. The late spring could be con-
sidered nothing more nor less than a
real hinderance to the early maturing
of the first crop. The warm weather
throughout the latter part of May and
the first half of June of course have
a good deal to do with the growth, but
the abundance of water is supposed to
be responsible for the record.

HE USED A CLUB
ON HIS WIFE'S ADMIRER

Ignacio Valencia lies in the city Jail
suffering with a badly bruised back
all because he stepped across an irri-
eating ditch, as he expressed il, and
said good morning to an old sweetheart
who happened to be the wife of Ra-
mon Navarro. Ramon tells little diff
ferent story and which makes the
presence of Ignacio all the harder to
explain, and Furthermore the wife of
Ramon claims that she never was the
sweetheart of Ignacio and in fact is
sure that she never even saw the man
until a few days ago. II was intended
to arraign Ignacio yesterday, but Ma
varro was called to Phoenix as a wit
ness in court and could not appear.
Navarro claims that he broke a large
size club over the visitors back and
then notified Marshal Peterson, who
made the arrest.

ALFALFA TRACT SOLD.

Howard tract in the Mcqueen section.
becomes the owner of the northwest
quarter of the northwest quarter Of
section IS, township / north of range

the north half of the eighty-acre tract
purchased last fall from ID. c. Ran
dali. which lies Immediately east of
the Consolidated canal and on which
there is perfect stand of alfalfa. This
is a well located piece of land and Mr..
Wright is fortunate, in securing it at
this time.

terday are now being rapidly trans
formed into alfalfa fields, vineyards
and orange groves.
