BIG DEMAND FOR
 SEASONS FIRST
 CROP 0F LETTUCE
Inquiries Pour in from Eastern Com
 mission Houses as Crisp Younq Plants Start on Hundreds of Acres of Valley loess

With the first tender green shoots
 of 100 acres of lettuce just pushing through the ground, and inquiries pouring in from one eastern commis- sion house after another, the outlook for the vegetable growers of the Salt
 River Valley is considered most en- couraging.
 Beside 100 acres already planted
 near Glendale, part of which is now up and growing in fine shape, an ad- ditional 100 acres will be planted in the crisp vegetable this week. Other tracts are being prepared, and will be devoted to producing the three pound New York head lettuce which grows to perfection only in the Salt River
 Valley.
 Inquiries as to how they can se-
 cure Arizona lettuce for their select l winter markets have already been re- !ceived from fifteen eastern houses, and l the prospects are that the associa- | tiOns representative, who will be To-
 cated in Chicago during the entire
 shipping season will be kept busy sup plying insistent demands from all

RECLAMATION CHAPS
 ENJOY QUAIL FEAST
Tex Goodson Brings in Large Number he Saved up and they Help Harold
 Bargman to Entertain

About thirty reclamation fellows had two quail apiece and Harold Bargman toe ntertain them at Sings Saturday night. Texas Goodson, foreman of the Cashion camp was responsible for the quail, but nobody was re- sponsible for Bargman. Maybe the ragtime piano had something to do with it, also the belief of Bargy's that the reclamation bunch needed waking up. So he woke 'em.
 In tho Agua F'ria country there is weeping and moaning among the quail tribe, for over eighty lost ones. The trusty scatter gun of Goodson. and his equally trusty huntin' dog made vac ancies. Saturday night they yelped til them, along with other viands such as Sing puts on his tables
 Arguing as to which should make the speech of welcome, or congratulation, Bargman and Habitual Toastmastec Marcus May nearly stopped the show But finally May prevailed, as is his custom, and he started. Bargy inter- rupted MT. Postmaster, beg of you the floor, Clear hear) No, gentlemen, l don't want to make a speech; 1 want to say something!"
