Three grand prizes were offered, as well as several smaller ones, two for the names submitted and selected as brands for the bacon, ham and lard products, and one for the trademark
 Out of the many hundred brands suggested. Cactus was chosen for the first grade of bacons, hams and lard, and Apache for the second grade. "Ari- paco'' was selected for the trademark, being composite word gleaned from the firm name, Arizona Packing com pany.

HOEPPVER CO. HAD LARGEST ELECTRIC
 CONTRACT IF STATE

To the Hoeppner Electric and Ma chine company has been accorded the unusual distinction of carrying out the largest electrical contract ever known in Arizona, and probably in the whole Southwest. This was the contract for wiring and the installation or motors and electrical fixtures of every de- scription in the new Arizona Packing plant, the work of which is now just being completed after extending over q period of several months.
 All the electrical work, in fact in the whole immense plant of the local pack ing company, consisting of several buildings, a powerhouse. a main manu- factury. an office building, superin- tendent's residence. etc. was installed and prepared by the Hoeppner com pany. The work included wiring. plac- ing of conduits. and installation of switchboards and lights, as well as of electrical motors, 66 in number, and having a combined capacity of ap- proximately 1000 horsepower. Without any shadow of doubt, the recently completed contract of the Hoeppner company at the Arizona Packing plant, far surpassed anything of it's kind in this section.
 
 The Arizona Packing plant contract is not the only large contract, how ever, that the local electrical company has fulfilled in the past few months, for it furnished and installed all the motors in the Vance Brothers bakery, established a few weeks ago. MT. 1 Hoeppner also had the contract for 1 equipping the Arizona Egyptian Cot ton company with several of its largest motors.
 The Scottsdale Ginning company was supplied with motors totaling in capacity 250 horsepower by the Hoepp- ner Electric company. Six hundred 1 horsepower in motors was furnished and installed in the Avondale com pany's plant at Avondale. The Hoepp- ner Electric company also carried out contracts for wiring, lighting and in staIlation of fixtures in the French Shop, the Sarttoga Cafe. the Gilbert school and in numerous other public buildings, manufactories and private residences throughout the state. | Two Kinds of Motors
 All motors under 50 horsepower handled by the Hoeppner company arc from the factories or the Robbins ane Myers Motors company and include z wide variety of motors. There are in icluded in the list, the alternating cur rent. single phase fractional horse power motor; the alternating current polyphase fractional horsepowel motor; the alternating current, poly lphase induction motor; the direct cur rent fractional horsepower motor, thu
