PAUL PRY's ELLKNDALE
LETTER.


An Interesting discussion on the ap-
! proximate cost Of growing tomatoes per
acre was held last Wednesday at the
meeting Of the newly organized Farm
Bureau. II is surprising the different
opinions that were expressed during the
discussion. Farmers residing in the same
community, and in some Instances ad-
joining each other, varied greatly in their
estimates as to the cost OF production.
The various prices estimated ranged from
t42 per acre to Sis per acre for the cost
OF producing the vegetables. As a result
Of the great difference Of opinion no
definite price for the tomato selling price
was agreed upon.
Mr.. Ritter Of the Jester Catsup Factory
was in Glendale last week trying to in
terest the farmers 10 grow large acreages
Of strawberries for his factory. II is
said that this factory this year will can
large quantities Of berries here, but that
they will be brought from other places.
Should the farmers here become interest
ed in berry growing Glendale may be a
large berry center within few years.
At the present time the management OF
the local factory are having machinery
installed which will handle the berries.

that the stacking of is only temporary.
Some excitement was caused here on

Charter Amendment Read.

City Recorder Clay NJ stearns read
an amendment to the city charter
which he suggested that the counci'
submit to the voters for their ap-
proval at the special election which
is TO be held on June 3.
Under the provisions OF this amend
ment the city will be given power
TO proceed to foreclose title to prop
erty within the city for delinquent
taxes for local improvements, in the
same manner In which mortgages are
foreclosed
AZ the present time the city has
outstanding several thousands of
dollars In such assessments which ~
keep the city's credit good have been
paid from funds raised by taxation
on the city as whole Practically
all the delinquents are non-residents
who have purchased property here for
speculative purposes and who have
taken advantage Of the deficient pro.
visions OF the charter to escape pa"-
ment and have ignored repeated ef
forts OF the officials to collect the
sums due the city. In the meantime
property in general over the city has
been compelled to pay higher taxes.
The passage OF this amendment will
simplify the collection of these taxes
and ultimately reduce taxes on the
property within the city limits ~ n
