CHANDLER CANNERY
 HELPING ID SOLVE
 ONE CROP PROBLEM

Orchard owners who sold their fruit 70 the Fl Nerjel Rancho in Chandler do not face the serious problem that is confronting many cotton growers of the Salt River valley today. The can nery, which strictly speaking, is a pre- serving plant, was started in 1912, and due to favorable conditions, even in the face of the great cotton wave has grown to it's present size. It is now commanding attention not only in this state but in adjacent states which are anxious to have it's products.
 The Fl Nerjel cannery, located half a mile west and half mile south of Chandler is owned and operated by' George r. and w. J. Lewis. who have an S0-acre peach and apricot orchard in connection. The cannery has all up-tod date labor saving machinery and turns out high-class product in glass jars varying in size from an individual dining car jar of one ounce to the large four pound hotel size.
 The factory has 7,SO0 feet of floor space, including two large canning rooms, each 30 by 100 feet; a packing room, a steam plant with 5O-horse- power boiler, and an office. The vol ume of business will necessitate an ad- dition before this summers fruit crop.
 The plant is a year-round cannery, which makes it a good industry from the money end of the game. In the spring it starts off with the apricot crop which is followed by the early peach crop, then come the plums and figs followed by the later peaches. When the deciduous fruits are off, the honey crop has started to come in, and the cannery works on it until the oranges are ripe. Then the marmalade time comes, after which peanut butter
 Is made. The honey is stored in large vats and is run through the plant at odd times when other products are scarce
 Mir. Lewis. when asked If he could get all the fresh products from local ranchers said that was his only trou ble-that he could not get enough of the home grown products, forcing him to send elsewhere, although they could be grown here just as well. The ! Chandler district in 1916 had some 600 acres of fruit trees, while now the

It was the municipal Christmas tree, fresh from the forests Of northern Ari- zona, minus the sparkling tinsel, the glaring bulbs, the dazzling lights and the joyful toys and presents, it was the municipal Christmas tree as it may appear Christmas day unless the drive for financial help meets with success.

 Believing that PhoeuiCians will prove themselves equal to the task. a great pine from the forests Of northern Ari- zona is now en route to Phoenix and it will be erected in the lobby of the hotel as soon as 1t arrives. to replace the smaller one temporarily erected yester- day.

tho cannery has been able 10 handle it. Most of the figs are grown along ditch banks and require little or no care, the only work being the picking. The oranges grown in the valley make one kind of marmalade, while if is necessary to import orange pulp from other countries to make some classes of marmalades. as the local fruit is too sweet. If the proper varieties were obtainable, the wild orange pulp could be made, which is used in the manu- facture of bitter marmalade
 The success of the cannery and the disposal of its products give the farm CTS of the valley food for thought in planning their crops for the coming years, as they are trying 10 get away 1 from the one-crop condition which has been a knotty problem this year.

acreage does not exceed 250. Another crop that the Cannery needs and cant get, but hopes to get in the near future is strawberries. Several small ranch CTS have promised to plant straWber ries and more should do likewise.
 The honey is the one product oi which the cannery can get all it wants in the state and still have some % cars waiting to be sold to it as they are the only large purchasers in this part of the country. The honey is pun through a special process that prevents it from candying. and is put up iI glass numbers jars and cans. up to T. pounds.

INCREASING SPEED

The road program is being executed a little faster and faster every day. About four and a half miles of paving has been laid on the Yuma road, and two and a half on South Center street Four mixers are now at work laying about 2,000 feet of concrete a day, and to them one has been added on the Chandler end of the Chandler Mesa road. It is expected that before Christ mas the work will be going on at the rate of half a mile a day.
 One mile of road from a point on the Yuma road four miles west of Phoe- nIx and a half mile Of that road be- ginning at the city limits has been thrown open.

the United States were anxious to get the goods, and that the selling end was the easiest. He also emphasized again that the real problem was get ting local ranchers and farmers to raise the fruit, as they were all too anxious to raise cotton.
 The average yield of siX-year- old trees in 1920, which was not an excep- uonally good fruit year, was five tons, which sold for $60 to S100 per ton to the cannery. The picking came at a time when the cotton was '1ayed by" SD it was easy to get pickers. Also the few farmers who had fruit were en- abled to use the money to pick their cotton this fall.

Snow began falling In Flagstaff late yesterday afternoon, according to re- ports to the local weather bureau. and indications were good for a general storm over the northern part of the state. A storm will be a benefit to the range country, as water has been be- coming scarce recently, and snow in the mountains also will assure a sup ply of water in the Roosevelt dam next year.
 James Gordon of the weather bureau said last night that the storm prob ably would not be felt in Phoenix, ez- cept for possible showers.
