Magdeburg and other cities, are doing a
paying business with 5eets OF from 8 to
II per cent saccharine matter; they re-
ject beets weighing less than about 2H
pounds; the beet-sugar industry there
reaches back into the Coles, and has al
ways been in fourishing condition after
the first trials and tribuations were over
come. We find in the Santa Monica Out
look the following account OF the opera
tons OF farmer in that locality in estab-
fishing beet farm:
"The beets were planted after the rains
and had no irrigation. On low, dry,
gravelly soil the texture was found to
be very fine, and tho beets grew to a
great length. The percentage Of saccha-
rine matter runs from 10 to 10. On the high
mesa, with light, loamy soil, the growth
was more bulky but not so long, and the
texture is very solid. The percentage of
saccfarine after is from 10 to q. On
the low, fiat, loamy, damp land near the
spring the beets grew very large, weigh
ing as much as ten pounds, and measur-
ing twenty inches in circumference.
These beets analysed as high as 25 per
cent. Those in the same locality in
very damp land did not fully mature,
showing only l6 per cent of sacchsrine
matter.
The calculation is that the land ought
to produce twenty-five tons OF beets per
acre, worth at the refinery, if the beets
carry 20 per cent OF saccharine matter,
IS ton. This would give the grower
1925 per acre for his crop, a great deal
more than he can realize by growing
wheat or barley, and more than he could
make by growing certain kinds OF fruit
if he can not be sure of labor to pick and
q market to sell in.

THE SUGAR-BEET INDUSTRY.

The president congratulates the coun'
try on the growth of the sugar-beet in
dustry, and observes it has passed the
experimental stage. That is the opinion
OF observers OF the French and German
sugar crops. The product of sugar made
from beets will this year exceed the crop
Of cane sugar by nearly million tons.
1t is thus quite safe to say that the in
dustry is no longer an experiment
Some interesting work is now being
done in Santa Clara, Fresno, Los Angeles
and other counties in California in grow.
ing beets in various soils. The growers
object is to grow large beets, rich in
saccharne matter. Very small beets
such as are grown for domestic consump
ton, are of little value to the sugar mill
and beet which does not carry over II
per cent of saCcharine matter is OF nc
value. The refner wants beets that
weigh over four pounds and that carry e
per cent saccharine or over. German

Must Meet with Sanction From the Peo.
ple In General.

The action Of Acting Governor Thomas
in appointing county commissioners to
fill the places OF those who hid to avoid
the duties of their Office in counting the
vote, and the mandates of the court,
seems natural one under all the circum-
stances, and must meet with sanction
from the people in general. There is no
call for display Of monkey business in
this day and age of the world. In politics
or business it is all the same. A man
acting as county commissioner has GER
tain duties to perform that are as plain as
day, and when. for political or other
reasons he absents himself to keep from
performing those duties, his Office should
be declared vacant and some one ap-
pointed who will act.-Cerrillos Rustler.

DESPITE the non-progressive action Of
the people of New Mexico in voting

seem that a Republican congress is in,

A PERSONAL EXPLANATION,

The attention OF the editor of the New
MEXICAN has been called to the fact that
J. G. Albright, alleged editor and pro-
pretor of that Matchmaking sheet, the
Albuquerque Democrat, has again lied
about and slsndered the editor of the
New MEXICAN. To be sure he is simply
getting paid for this dirty and cowardly
work by some cowardly wretch, and very
likely some member of the Democratic
executive committee of this territory, who
uses this discriminating BLACKBOARD, Al
bright, as a mere tool and who pays him
for his dirty and cowardly ISLANDERS and
lies.
The editor of this paper hereby invites
the aforesaid Albright to bring libel suit
against this paper or it's editor, and in
order to aid him in this matter, repub-
fishes the following card, published
in the Albuquerque Citizen last Sep

Still Iucky.

Hon. w. Mckaig was fortunate in
obtaining commentator from the
Baltimore Sun of what he now, doubt
less, regards as an unfortunate letter.
That is to say, had the letter not
been written the general would have
almost certainly secured the demo-
cratic nomination for Congress.
AT the same time he would not have
gotten the certificate of the Sun to
his virtue as self-denylng politician
-rara nris in this country.
John Randolph said, however, that
''the politician has seven principles
five loaves and two fishes.'

that Mayor McKaig has lost the loaves,
but saved the fishes-one of which is

The Poor Registrar Also Unhappy.
The registrars are aroused and the
battle-ax of organization for more
pay is cleaning.
Our old friend, Hambrig ht, who is a
sort of Christopher Columbus in dis
covering excuses for making registra
ton cost the people as much as pos
sible, has figured out that man can
not make $40 day at registering and
copying names, ages, places and birth
marks.
Hence, as secretary of the combine,
he sends out letter asking all the
registrars to demand their rights, and
he has no doubt that if the cohesive
powers of public plumber will cohese,
they will get the pugilinktum.
A better plan would be-let all the
registrars resign-as a matter of good
faith.
This thing of Indignantly holding
on to offices that don't pay is open to
the suspicion that the incumbents are
at last too liberal to the public.

Like Unto the Handle of a jug.

To those who have asked the JOUR
NAL why the Cumberland Times of
Monday published Mr.. Richmond's
letter and omitted the JOURNALS com
ments thereon, we answer-we do not
know.
Perhaps it was an inadvertence or
an intentional musician oversight
or a slight, or perhaps the Times APP
proves Mr.. Richmond's position and
disapproves the JOURNALS.
But in any case, the appearance of
the one without the other places the
JOURNAL before the Times readers at
an immense disadvantage.
