there with some property and 81 200
In cash. The money proved . bad
thing for him for he wanted to get
more and he wanted to get II so bad
that he resolved to resort to means
unlawful TO get 1t quick. So he pur-
chased the old John Grant joint for
400, on Saturday night. Sunday he
kept open about half day and had
not sold . drop when two unfeeling
minions Of the Law swooped down
upon him and In the parlance Of the
street, pulled him. He was found
guilty Of running . joint, and was
fined SIS and 60 days In jail. This
was very Encouraging, but ne hired
. lawyer to appeal it for him, and
pending the preparation OF the
papers went back into Daddy Hud-
sons bird cage. 1t 10 an old saying.

This years crop completes their

livered without being tested; second
$3.50 per ton for beets testing IL per
cent sugar, and SOC. per ton sddi-
tional for every per cent above II
per cent.
While the farmers In vicinity Of
Grand Island have made no money
in the new industry, they say they
have . plant established and the
company Is going to run 1t, and II
they can't raise beets at four dollars
per ton they will get five, as they
can raise beets cheaper than the fac
tory company can, a. the company
would have to buy or lease land, and
employ Q large amount Of help, with
expensive overseers.
In regard to the soil the land
around Grand Island 10 q light
sandy soil with q coarse, grsvely
subsoil, which does not produce as
large q yield Of beets nor yield as
much sugar rs those raised on the
river bottom lands. I think their
bottom land very similar to ours
here, and the beets raised on this
soil, especially on Wood river aver.
about IL tons per acre, and tested as
high as l6 per cent. The farmers
claim that 1t takes good corn land to
raise sugar beets. Respectfully,
