GOOD SHOES CHEAP I FIRST BEET CROP SUGAR COMPANY BEGINS SEEDING AT ECHO. Land Has Been Leased From C. R. Lisle Seven Teams Now at Work Preparing the Land First Beet Ever Planted In Umatilla County. The first sugar beet seed that over came Into Umatilla county, In any quantity, was unloaded nt Echo yes terday and will bo planted Immedi ately on the farm of C. n. Lisle, near that place. The La Grande sugar factory peo ple sent over twven teams, all the necessary plows, harrows, planters and drills, to begin preparing the land for tho first beet crop of this county. The sugar company has lpased a tract of land from Mr. Lisle nnd will prepare It and seed In tho proper manner, in hopes of demon strating beyond a doubt that this Is sugar-beet country. ThO Echo peoplo who have con- Iracted to plant beet crops this year will joUoiy the instructions and Imi tate the practices of tho sugar beet people in order to get the benefit of their wide and profitable experience. The beet seed used in tho county at this timo comes largely from Ger many. Some small farms in Utah are devoted to seed raising and the Eastern Oregon Experiment Station at Union, has on hand several tons of native crown beet seed which will bo sold at cost to tho farmers.

It will bo moro than n month beforo tho crops will bo planted in Grando Hondo valloy. ljxsl year It was so cold thoro that tho seed rotted in tho ground after It was planted. Tho warm soli hero will avert any such a disaster to tho crop.
