The new, discovery is nothing else than calcite, more com- monly known as calcium carbonate, a orm of lime, and regarded as ideal feed for chickens. The company has been doing considerable development work in exploiting the big salt deposits during the past few months and it was only lately that the calotte deposits were uncovered. When it was opened tests were made and it was found to be superior to any ever opened in the western country, it being declared ito contain elements insuperior in value to to shell or any other oyster dustry known grit. Large quantities of this material have been used by the poultry producers in the state during the past three months, and its fine qualities nce recognized by the ex ,wrt o at ports.

We have been working diligent-o- f ly, said an official of the company, during the past week to meet the demand. A carload, comprising 009 pounds of the calcite, was for- warded to Colorado, where it will be distributed among the big poultry producers of that state.

I Who Is Who, in the state-wid- e sugar beet controversy, was made more complex in the issue of the Salina Sentinel of last week, and growers are wondering just what. The Sentinel declares, that an aggrega- tion of private and public spirited citizens comes to the rescue and offers even more than the Gunnison company in order to secure enough acreage that the Elsinore factory, an important asset in our industrial life, may run. Following on, the same article implies that the Gunnison company will be expected to. meet the price saying a clause in the Gunnison Sugar companys contract provides that if any other company offers a higher price during the next three yerf:s, the price will be met by the Gunnison company. Here is the paragrtph referred to 'in the Gunnison Sugar company's contract, which is It rs further expressly understood that if at the time the initial pay- ment ia to be made by the Company for beets delivered as herein con- templated during each respective year of the life of this agreement the prevailing initial price for said beets paid by a majority of the other sugar factories in Utah shall be in excess said initial payment of $7.50 per ton, then the company shall pay to said grower said prevailing initial price in lieu of the sum of $7.50 as hereinabove mentioned. The question: Are Messrs. R. D. Young, Jas. M. Peterson, John Chris- tensen and J. E Magleby who, through the press have offered an $8 minimum price for beets grown in the Elsinore district, doing this on their own behalf, or for the Utah- - Idaho Sugar company? If the beets are being purchased by the individuals, it absolves the Gunnison Sugar "minicompany fiom paying the mum. If the beets are being cono tracted by the company, the Gunnison Sugar company would not, on its contract as the clause above quoted shows, be required to meet, the prices, for the simple rea- son that tha. operating the largest number of factories in state, is not paying a uniform scale of $S. On the other hand, it has a mulliplicity of prices, $7, $7.50 and $8. The past splendid record of the Gunnison Sugar company, and the declaration of W. Harvey Ross, pres- ident, at Salt Lake this week, yould indicate that the $8, or even higher prices, would be met, should all man- ufacturers agree. The statement the Sentinel is misleading and its in- tent will do no good in adjusting the controversy. Strengthening the belief m the Gunnison Sugar company's sincerity for the beet growers of the state, and following the recent developments in the controvsy in Sevier county over the $8 min'mum price, Utah county beet groweis are backing the Guimi-o- f son company and, at numerous requests on the part of the Utah county growers officials of the Gunnison company entered Utah county only yesterday, and contracted approxr mately 600 acres of beets. It is of- -' ficially announced that this acreage could have ben materially increased, but due to the discriminatory tactics by the company, many acres of good beet land has been planted to other crops.
