SEASON'S
FIRST
HIES LEAVE
VALLEY TODAY
First Car Going to East at
Record Price Citrus
Growers Expect Profit
able Season for Industry
The first car of Palt Hiver valley
oranges will lpave the packing plnnt of
the Arizona Citrus Growers' company
today for tlx eastern market, brlnjf n?
a price of a little over 6 cents a pound.
This la prartii-iUly double the prices
rlI In pnst years for local oranges and
U" predicted opens tho most auspicious
o. nnwn in.n inn vauoy citrus grow ng
Industry has ever known.
The car consisted of the earliest fruit
from a number of local orchards and is
an 01 unusually inrcre size and of ex
nu..iiy. a present season,
according- ti experts of the Industry,
i-umnouipu in every way toward a
llr" na more unirormiy tfxcellont
.fruit than has been the case for a
number of years past- The oranges are
running in jrrndes from heavy to fancy
and are pourin? Into the well equ pped
local packintr plant at a rapid rate.
Officials of tho ArUona Citrus Grow.
-rV company are making a special
-ii.iiri kj gti me crop out and onto
h market Just as erly ns possiMo. in
oraer to anticipate the California fruit
and the present plan Is to have practic
ally all local oranges out by Novem-
i-t r is. i '
Avery It Earl Shipper
noma or the Ernest fruit of the
Talley Is beln?? picked in the orchard
ft V. VT. Avery on. Chicago avenue
above the Indian school road, which
contains- some of the finest specimens
or orsntre trees in the district. To Mr.
Avery has been accorded the unusual
.privilege of having; an orange named
srter him the Avery F.nrlv.
. The Avery Karly Is peculiarly adapt
ed to the climate of the Rait Hiver val
ley and was evolved In hi t own orchard
;by Mr. Avery. It is in rreat demand
In the eastern market and a contract
already has been made for a car load
t the top price. The parent trees of
the Avery Karly are being; largely
bndled from by local growers. This
ore r ere Is rmrirkabte for Its early rip
entn qualities as well for Its ex-
eellent size nnd flavor.
tr. John Howman's six-year-old or-
arue rrov Is bearing an excellent crop
of eariv rlpeninsr navels this season, in
spife of the fact that the trees are com.
psratlvel-vr younsr. fr, Howman a?
tr1'ifs the unusual nrros of his ex
periments in the f rowing of citrus
fruit. In part fit lat. to the wonderful
rsver crops which he has erown In th
orchard each yenr since the treos were
set out. The cowpeaa In his orchard
this year reached almost to the tops of
the trees.
IngUtide Has Early Fruit
The orange orchard at Ingleslde,
which is the largest and one of the
oldest In the valley, s shipping early
ripening- fruit. This orange grove has
had a cover crop of alfalfa growing In
it for a number of years.
Henry Scott's orange grove, known
as tho old Dr. MUh place, is In excel-
ent bearing. Mr. Scott Is new In the
trus game, but he came with the de-
crmination to repat th succss h had
had In raising cotton. His first crop
bars out this determination and is
probably the largest one that has ever
been produced from the grove. As Is
usual with this orchard, the oranges
were among the first In the valley to
ripen.
judging from the present Indications,
officials of the citrus growers declare,
there will be an unprecedented acreage
planted to citrus truit next epr ng In
tho Salt River valley. Prospective cit
rus growers, however, will be greatly
handicapped by the scarcity of nursery
stock here. With the almost total
stopping of citrus planting since the
advent of cotton, the local nurseries
have reduced their citrus stock until
It is now found In a negligible quan
tity.
Predict Boom in Citrus Industry
Because of the laws governing the
bringing into the state of c trus stock
fcom other states. It will be necessary
for prospective citrus gorwers to ob
tain some new legislation if they are
to turn to California for orange and
grapefruit trees next fall. Even then
the stock will have to be brought In
under the most rigid inspect on, citrus
experts Insist.
That local farmers have learned the
folly of putting all their eggs Into one
basket and of trying to grow crops on
land entirely unsited to them. Is the
opinion of citrus growers, who predict
a great boom In the Industry the com
Iiik year. It has been found that noth
ing can be grown more profitably on
land choked with Johnson grass than
citrus or deciduous fruits.
Though the prospective citrus grow
ers 111 have to wait four or five years
before they get returns from their
rroves, they w ill then have an income
fro mthclr Investment for a lifetime
THIS being true, it is essential that he
obtain only the very best pedigreed
nursery stock, experts point out.

Blue Bird
Tonight will start another week of
happiness at the Blue Bird. With a
floor unexcelled, kept in the finest ot
condition at all times and large enough
to permit dancing enjoyment to the
fullest measure, with a seating ar
rangement that could not be improved
upon, with convenient booths for
parties, with a refreshment service
that includes everything, the Blue Bird
also boasts a wonderful dance music
organization.
"The Gift Supreme," a screen version
of which will be shown at the Colum
bia theater today and tonight. In fact,
this drama of life tends to prove that
in every heart there is some good. A
wealthy young man. whose father is
none too square, decides to play the
game of life in a different way. He
wins for his wife a girl far above the
mentality of those of his set. But to
do so he fought the cunningness of a
band of criminals. Fairness and faith
in mankind assist him in winning his
point.
"The Gift Supreme" is one of the
finest examples of the extent to which
a screen drama may go. It has been
acclaimed a masterpiece of screen pro
duction. "Springtime'- is the special comedy.
Toft's Country Club
If the owls hoot, many black cats
cross your path and the witches go
flying over your head Saturday night
it Is only the indication of the assem
bling of all witchcraft from every cor
ner of the universe for the annual con
tention at Toft's Country club. Witch
ery and cunning devised and practised
since the time of the Salem witchcraft
will hold sway at Toft's Saturday night
and the goblins will swoop down on
you when you enter the spacious hall
at Toft's. It will be the greatest frolic
ever known at Toft's.

If there was a single Joy lover in all
of Thoenlx who did not help make last
Saturday the biggest night in the his
tory of the American he surely could
not have been missed, for the enthusi
astic and Joyful merrymakers made the
entire amusement center fairly ring
with their happiness. And Gene Dab-
ney and his Vernon Six seemed to be
endowed with a magical spirit of Jar
for their melodies seemed to pick, one

Strand
Pauline Frederick's invincible por
trayal of "Madame X," now playing an
engagement at tho Strand, has proven
to be one of the really great accom
plishments of the silent drama. Her
art, everywhere apparent in her over
whelmingly natural interpretation of
what is conceded one of the most dif
ficult roles every written into a dra
matic production, has proven her one
of the screen's greatest artists and,
perhaps, tho most accomplished of all
the screen emotional stars.
The capacity audiences which all
throughout the day crowded the Strand
were enthusiastic in their praise of
the masterpiece of human appeal and
the engagement probably will hang up
a record for attendance.

Ed Redmond himself , is responsible
for the statement that ''Nesting Time"
is practically ready for production
fully three days in advance of the
opening date: In stock production this
is certainly exceptional, but it is the
manner in which Mr. Redmond works
and this attribute has established for
him an enviable reputation for satis
factory ; accomplishment. "Nesting
Time" is a delightful comedy-drama
of youth and romance, beautifully
heightened by a dozen song hits of the
"whistling" variety. The opening per
formance will be Wednesday afternoon
and "Nesting Time" continues for the
remainder of the week. Those Intend

orders at their earliest convenience.

TO THE ELKS TONIGHT
Today is the day when the Marcus
Show of 1J20 makes its return debut
in Phoenix. Seldom has so much in
terest been manifested in a theatrical
engagement as that which surrounds
the coming of the extravaganza, for
the advance sale of seats at the Elks
box office Is reputed to be the largest
in the history of the house.
Owing to the length of the perform
ance, It Is announced that the curtain
will rise at 1:15 sharp.
Three full hours are required to un
fold the 23 scenes Into which the har
lequinade Is divided.
Such structural alterations in the
stage of the Elks as were necessitated
by the requirements of the super-spectacle.
"Birth of Venus." have been com
pleted.
The Marcus attraction is due to ar
rive at Phoenix on the Southern Pa
cific. Three double-length baggage
cars are required to transport the
paraphernalia, while an equal number
of Pullmans are allotted to the com
pany. o

"Camilla of the Yukon," the William
