tie feeders into the valley Beet tops,
he explained, provide good forage
for cattle
Proof of Hunts faith in the future
of sugar beets here was demonstrat-
ed on his property. He is Supervis-
ing the planting of 348 acres of
sugar beets this year, after expert
mentS last year with five acres.
The beets planted last year as
an experimental crop tested II per
cent sugar, with 80 per cent purity,
Hunt said. Jack Brem, field man
ager for the Los Alamitos Sugar
company, described this percentage
as very high"
The average sugar beet yield here
probably will be about 20 tons to
the acre, Hunt and Brem agreed.
Figuring on a basis of Is per cent
sugar-the companys estimate-at
last years price of 81 per 100
pounds, the grower would gross $40
per acre. Seventeen per cent Su-
gar beets at last years price would
give the grower a market price of
pO.OD DtI QCllNGlSQ w bllC Ntil .
The market will remain steady
under the cooperative plan put in
to effect in the valley this year,
Hunt said. The cost of planting and
caring for the crop, he estimated
will he about the same as that of
lettuce. He predicted that farmers
now growing lettuce, peas, carrots
and similar crops will find sugar
beets a good substitute for some
acres.
Hunt stressed the Importance of
land preparation, including pre-
irrigating. No alkali ground should
be used for sugar beets, he declar-
ed.
1T takes good ground and
good grower to succeed with sugar
beets," Hunt said. "A man with a
good Wishbone, but nothing else,
will not succeed with sugar beets
any more than with any other crop.
1t takes work to be a good farmer" !"

fall and harvested IN the winter and
spring.
No accurate acreage statistics are
available yet, although B. A. Har-
rigan, agricultural commissioner
has the fall acreage estimate in
preparation.
Indications, however, point to a
slight increase in lettuce acreage,
possibly amounting to 5000 acres.
Last year 1887 acres were planted
to lettuce and growers anticipated
this year the acreage will be around
21,000
Lettuce has been seeded and in
many fields irrigated and with the
present ideal growing weather
should be off to a good start.
Last year the lettuce deal was
one of which growers dream. Top
prices were reached, with four dol
lar lettuce a commonplace since
the market held steady at that
price for weeks, even going as high
as Sc. Not since the pre-depression
days has lettuce sold for such a
price.
For fall peas the planting season
is approximately over and for
spring peas, will probably be in
order for the next two weeks. Har-
vest time is, on the average, around
the latter part of October or first
/ of November and continues until
| the frosts.
5000 In Peas
Preliminary surveys indicate that
some 4,500 to 5000 acres are devoted
to fall peas. The total acreage,
spring and fall last year was 49,
/ 945.
Planting is under way for early
carrots. Here also a slight increase
in acreage is anticipated. Last year
5,970 acres were planted to this
crop which had an inauspicious be-
ginning although late carrots sold
well.
Cabbage acreage will be approx
mately that of last season, around
$500 acres. This crop also met
with good market conditions last
| season.
Flax growers have just completed
a highly successful season with most
of the crop sold and with 1850 tons
of flax straw stacked in the yards
of the California Central Fibre cor
poration for use in the manufac-
ture of paper. Flax paintings also
occur in the fall and the exact
amount of acreage is not available
now.
Grain growers, like the flax grow
ers, have completed one of the
most successful years in history
wheat, barley, oats having sold for
good prices. Just how much land
will be planted to grain is not
known at present but considerable
barley and oat seed is being sold
some of which will be planted with
alfalfa for pasture. Planting OF
grains will start late in october
or in November.
Alfalfa Acreage
Alfalfa acreage is one of the
largest devoted to any single crop
in the valley running on the aver
age to 100000 acres. Considerable
seed is being sold with the price
high, over 21 cents. How much of
this seed is being used in new
paintings and how much in re-seed-

First Asparagus
Shipped Thursday

Imperial Valleys first fall as
paragus was shipped Thursday by
the Imperial Valley Asparagus
Growers association. Officials pre-
dicted that the first car will &C
out about Oct. 7.
Growers anticipate a fair mar
ket since cold weather in the east
will probably end the supplies of
fresh vegetables grown there and
increase the demand for the valley
product.
Imperial Valley is the only section
in the country shipping asparagus
at this season.
